Chapter Three: Hopeless

The sound of metal clanging against metal could be heard echoing off the walls,The wooden door flew open as Brad rushed in..Slamming the door shut he scooted the desk in front of it before almost quickly gathering up his notebooks and such and diving under the desk,Sweat pouring down his now pale face.

"Whatever Happens..And Whoever sees this..Will Know...I'm Doing All This...Just..To Save Her...."

The words were written quickly on a small parchment from the notebook,The pounding on the door was enough to make him panic.They were trying to knock the door down.In a attempt to take him away.They thought he had gone mad.And he knew it.

"Please Let This Work,Please Let This Work...."

Brad thought silently and squeezed his eyes shut.There wasn't much time left,The glass was shattering slowly.The door flew open just as a blinding white light tore through the reality,It was like nothing he had ever felt before.

There was no pain.No sound.Just a black void.A empty black void for those few moments.

Everything's So Blurry

And Everyone's So Fake

And Everybody's So Empty

And Everything Is So Messed Up

Pre-Occupied Without You

My Whole World Surrounds You

I Stumble Then I Crawl

A Couple Years Earlier...

"But how could this be?"

Brad's mom's expression turned concerned at her 10 year old son's artwork.It had been that day that they had been told to draw what they wanted to be when they grew up.Brad's mother's eyes were staring at the picture her oldest son had drawn.A picture of him standing on a pile of dead people holding a bloodied knife.She looked at the teacher.

"Why did he draw this?"

She asked silently,The teacher looked at her with a sad expression.Meaning there was no good news about all this.

"He said he doesn't remember."

Brad's mom shook her head before putting the picture down on the desk,Watching her 10 year old son from across the room.He seemed to be painting a picture.Or so it looked from the point of veiw.

10 year old Brad grumbled boredly..Finger-painting.Today was his worst day.He wasn't sure why his mom and the teacher were talking the way they were.It made no sense.Nothing made sense.At all.

You Could Be My Someone

You Could Be My Sea

You Know That I'll Protect You

From All Of The Obscene

I Wonder What You're Doing

Imagine Where You Are

There's Oceans In Between Us

But That's Not Very Far

"Come on,Brad."

Brad's mom muttered as she headed for the door and towards the car,Brad frowned as he scooted out of his seat and started towards the door.Only catching eye contact with a girl with red hair in pigtails,She wore a little blue dress as she watched him leave the class room.

The door closed on the car as Brad pulled the seat belt around him,Telling by his mother's expression she was both worried and dissapointed in him.He shuffled uncomfortably in his seat as he gazed out the window,Scenery passing by rather quickly.

Brad looked from the window and then at his mom,Feeling sick inside he blinked before asking.

"When is dad coming home?"

Something inside his mother turned,As she looked for a few seconds from the road to her son.Her son looked worried and yet wanting to know.She couldn't tell him the truth.Not now.He wouldn't understand.

"Your dad isn't coming home for awhile,Some nice docters took him in to keep him for some tests."

Brad's mom said simply as her gaze turned back to the road,Brad's eyes turned down as he looked at the floor of the car,He knew he had to believe her.What choice was there?

Brad's body stopped jerking abruptly on the autopsy table.Jenny and Mrs.Wakeman watched nervously from the other side of the room.He could start having violent seizures all over again.

"Is...Is he okay?"

Jenny whispered,Mrs.Wakeman shook her head -- Her eyes widened behind her glasses

"I don't know Jenny,I just don't know...."

Everyone Is Changing

There's No One Left That's Real

And Let Me Know Just How You Feel

Cause I Am Lost Without You

I Cannot Live At All

I Stumble Then I Crawl

Today,Mommy is taking me to see Daddy.I wonder if I'm in trouble..For drawing what I drew...

Brad wrote in his notebook before closing it.He had been waiting for 30 minutes since he had gotten home for his mom to be ready.Walking over to the drawer he pulled out a rather large knife,The silver blade gleaming in the dim lights.He turned around just as his mom walked in through the door way.

"Brad,Sweetie...What're You..Going to do with that knife?"

Fear etching his mother's words,Brad's stare was blank for a few moments as the knife dropped to the floor.He looked his mother in the eyes.

"I...Don't Know...."

You Could Be My Someone

Vexus' smirk of satisfaction seemed plastered to her face as she watched the whole display.The memories were coming back.Just as she had planned them too. The human servents watched from across the room,wide eyed at the scene.

Vexus turned to face them.

"Well,What're you waiting for?GET MOVING!"

She screamed,The human servants started darting every which way.The jingle of chains of their shackles could be heard all the way through the dungeon.

The metal door opened of the padded room,Brad was lead in and put in a chair.He sat there patiently.This was it.He was going to meet his father.Two gaurds stood in the room while his mother stood outside the room,Watching through the sound-proof glass.Nervous slightly.

A few mins later another door opened bringing a man in,He had bright red hair like Brad's and wore hand cuffs.He was sat down across from his son.Brad looked at his father and forced a smile yet his father never even cracked a smile.

"I hear your getting good grades,Am I right?"

Brad's father rasped,Brad jumped slightly but then nodded.His father looked kind of skeptical for a few moments but that passed.Beads of sweat were forming on Brad's forehead,He looked at his father for a few seconds.Just as he opened his mouth to say something,His father out of nowhere lunged forward knocking the 10 year old back against the floor,His hands wrapping around his throat.

Brad's mother screamed from the other side of the glass as the two gaurds came running trying to pull Brad's father off of him.But to no prevail.One of them finally brought their bat down over Brad's father's head.

His father's grip loosened before he collapsed all the way to the floor,Blood pooling around him.To forever stain the satin red.Red with blood.

The vibrating was strong as Brad felt his uncontius body converse,Jenny and Mrs.Wakeman were still watching from a safe distance across the room.No tellings what could of happened.Who knew what could of happened.

Brad's eyes squeezed even tighter shut,As if he were having a bad dream....

Nobody Told Me What You Thought

Nobody Told Me What To Say

Everyone Showed You Where To Turn

Told You Where To Run Away

Nobody Told You Where To Hide

Nobody Told You What To Say

Everyone Showed You Where To Turn

Told You Where To Run Away

"So ends this prayer,May he rest in peace."

The minister closed the book as the black colored casket was lowered into the ground,Brad's mother was dabbing away tears as Brad watched silently.He had never intended for this to happen.

The same red haired girl -- Jenny walked up beside him before clutching his pale hand,Staring into the deep hole.

Tears silently fell as The casket was finally lowered to the bottom of the hole.

Vexus' raised an eyebrow,Everything was going all according to plan.She grinned maliciously as The human servents scurried around doing what they had to do.In fear of Vexus' rath.

Jenny looked worried as she watched Brad,he looked like he was suffering.A small whimper of both fear and pain escaped past his lips.Mrs.Wakeman sighed and shook her head as she began taking notes of all this.

Explain Again To Me

Brad wasn't sure if he could wake up.He wasn't sure if this was reality or a dream.It had all happened so fast.The memories were getting to hard to control,Just to hard to deal with now...
