Summery: Kyle's thoughts on Tess and what happened to Alex

A/N: A different format for me, kind of stream of consciousness

            I can't believe it.  It's just unbelievable.  It's like finding out everything you thought was true, your every perception, was completely wrong.  I thought I knew Tess.  She was like my sister.  She was right under my nose, a murderess right under my nose. When did she change?  Was she always just plotting to get what she wanted?  What was she trying to gain over Christmas?  Was that dinner just to get something, or back then was she just being a part of the family?  If so what changed her? What about the prom?  That was just days before she killed Alex.  By then she had already taken away part of Alex's life.  She had made him some sort of slave.  She took away his free will and manipulated him.  Then she did it to me.

            Alex died on the day before my birthday, in my bedroom.  Now that I know, I can't sleep there.  I still sleep on the couch; even now that Tess is gone. That's where I am now, laying on the couch thinking about what has happened. I can still see what I did.  It makes me sick. I saw her kill him.  He was ranting and she held a hand up to his head.  He screamed, twisted in pain and collapsed, dead. He was dead, she killed him, turned his mind to mush. I picked Alex up by the front of his shirt and carried him outside and put him in his car.  I carried his body against my back and didn't even remember.  When I heard about Alex the next day I had been as surprised and horrified as everyone.  Max tried to bring him back, but it was too late.  Even if he had been in the room with me before the car cover up he probably couldn't have saved him, his mind was too badly damaged. 

            She didn't care about him; he was just another step in the ladder of her master plan.  I was just yet another step. I have the muscles and she wanted to use them.  She took away my mind and just used me to get what she wanted.  She needed the body moved and I could move it.  So she just warped me, stole my memories, my mind. She warped me so many times to keep her secrets.  Too much warping killed Alex, but she warped me without a second thought.  She didn't care about me either. 

            We welcomed her into our family and this is what happened.  I just can't believe it.  Tess was just using me, and my friends with her own plan.  She killed and covered it up.  No remorse, she didn't accept responsibility.  Of course she had killed a part of him long before when she made him her slave.  She had done the same to him.
