Chapter 29
You Are The Voice Inside My Head
Sydney knew she was close to death as she swirled in the wind and through mutants. She constantly felt herself rippling as she passed through each creature. Figuring this was the end for her, Sydney stopped screaming, took in a deep breath, and then released.
She said in her mind: This is it. You failed. Game over, man. Game over! At least when I die, maybe it won't hurt too much.
Suddenly, Sydney's head started throbbing. She clenched her teeth and her hands to her head.
Shizit! What the crap was that? That hurt like a bitch!
Who you calling a bitch? A sultry, British man voice asked from within her head.
Sydney's eyes bugged out. Who's there? Who's in my head? Her brain throbbed some more.
Wouldn't you like to know? Now let me go!
Sydney felt like her skull was being punched. Her head pained from something trying to brake out from the inside. The tension wouldn't ease up.
"STOP IT!" she yelled aloud, "STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT! Grrrrrr….JACK! JACK! JAAAAAA-"
Sydney was grabbed under the arms by a hard, stiff arm. A bony hand grabbed the top of her head firmly. The pounding tension in her head began to subside. In a way, it felt like the tension was being released. Sydney saw a bright glowing, red light eliminate just above her head.
"Jack?" Sydney muttered.
Everything Sydney saw around her flashed white.
