Chapter 29 – Fear is a mind killer
"STAY AWAY!" Harmony cried fearfully, withdrawing father into the corner. Ian couldn't help but look slightly worried at her reaction.
"Harmony…" He mumbled, reaching forward, Harmony's eyes widened, as all of the colour from them drained away, before she pulled her knees to her chest.
"please…" She whimpered, the tears welled up in her eyes. It was a shock to Ian to hear her sound so… well, fragile.
"What's wrong?" Ian asked softly, sitting by the exit, but he made no further movement towards her. No reply.
"Is it your bit-beast?" Ian guessed, Harmony nodded, the look of fear was still clearly written on her face.
"Tell me about it." Ian said, turning slightly to meet her gaze.
"I lost everything…" Harmony mumbled, her gaze dropped to the floor.
"As in?"
"I couldn't control my own movements. It was I didn't owe my own body…" She trailed off with a shudder.
"Its okay…" Ian tried to reassure her, but was cut off.
"ITS NOT! You have no idea! I was able to stop Draven from killing Bryan and Falborg…. But what's to say that I won't have the strength to stop her next time!" Harmony yelled, the fear in her eyes flared. Ian pulled back in surprise.
"What do you mean?" He asked, shock written all to clearly in his eyes.
"Draven wanted them…" Harmony shuddered, "dead…" She trailed off again to hold back a sob.
"Believe it or not… but we've all gone through that phase with our bit-beasts." Ian said, choosing his words carefully, that earned a confused look from Harmony.
"What?"
"Exactly what I said, we had to stop our bit-beasts from killing others. I admit it wasn't easy, but we managed to stop it." Ian explained.
"She's so much stronger than I am…"
"Mind over matter. Now are you going to come out of there?" Ian said extending his hand toward her. Harmony shifted, before she inched closer, the fear shone all too clearly in her eyes. Ian's hand outstretched to her.
"Come on… We'll help you get better." Ian said softly, smiling slightly.
"You promise?" Harmony asked, peering out of the shadows at him. Ian nodded, and caught hold of her wrist and pulled her out. She was still a bit shaken, but she had calmed down, yet she was still unable to look them in the eye.
'KNOCK'
Harmony opened her eyes groggily, before sitting up slightly.
'KNOCK, KNOCK'
"I'm coming!" Harmony yelled back, suppressing a yawn, before padding towards the front door.
"Can I help you?" Harmony asked, frowning at the stranger.
"I'm here to do your plumbing."
"Oh my… I'm so sorry… it totally went out of my head. Please do come in." Harmony gave him a sheepish grin, before letting him and leading him to the bathroom that needed re-plumbing.
"You sure I won't wake anyone?" He asked, as he prepared his tools.
"Nah… that lot," Harmony jabbed her thumb downwards "Need to get up now anyway." Harmony smiled before leaving him to get on with his job.
Heading downstairs, she entered the living room to find the guys sprawled on the floor, snoring their little heads off. Harmony smirked before jumping onto Tala.
"WAKE UP!" Harmony hollered, causing Tala to jump slightly, before kicking her off.
"Sod off." He grumbled.
