"Your eyes narrow as your mouth is left open in both anger and surprise... I laugh at this. What? You honestly didn't think you'd get away that easily without me coming back, did you? Ah, you growl in spite of me, yet, I think it's you that you should be worrying about…"
Daniel blinked confusedly to my remark, "What are you talking about?"
I laughed at this, "Have a look around…"
Daniel did as I suggested and looked left and right, completely oblivious to what I had in store for him. Just as he was going to say something, my plan kicked in.
The onyx-black tentacles burst from the shadows, wrapping over the boy. With a yelp of surprise, he growled, trying to wriggle free. Of course, his attempts failed, the limbs entwining tighter over the child's fragile body…
Daniel let a cough, soon struggling to breathe from the tentacles wrapped so tightly over his chest and neck. "What now, huh?" he sputtered, "What are you going to do with me?"
"That's a good question," I answered, holding my hands behind my back and pacing up to him, glaring coldly up at him. "I've always wanted you in this position…"
"Yeah? Well I suppose you're happy now, huh..." Daniel's reply trailed off from the vine-like limbs tightening their grip over him, as he now struggled to breathe.
"Easy," I commanded, "I don't want him dead yet…"
As if listening to my every word, the dark tentacles loosened their grip on the boy, but kept it firm.
Daniel struggled, collecting ecto-energy into his palms, preparing to blast at me. Of course, the tentacles let a shock through his system, draining the power, as the energy flickered away. I cackled, turning away and walking off a little ways.
"What? Surprised that you can't defeat me for once?" I asked in a mocking tone, turning back around to face him, a rather wide grin over my face.
Daniel growled, trying again to scramble out of the alien-like creature's grasp. Again, he failed, simply frowning at me.
"Don't waste your energy," I suggested, "You're just going to die anyway."
"Is that what this is about?" the child asked, "Killing me?"
I laughed, "But of course! Any enemy deserves revenge…"
"You don't need any damn revenge. What you need is to go back to prison, where you belong…"
"That small place?" I chuckled again to his remark, "Pff, even if I could go back to the peninsula, I wouldn't. But alas, the prison was destroyed when—"
"When you tried another attempt to take over?" Daniel cut me off, "You're going to fail again. Why bother?"
"On the contrary," I said, reaching into my pocket, pulling up an Anesthetic needle, "I will get away with it this time. I will be free, and I will be in control. And you know what?" I added, walking up to the child. "You won't be getting in my way again!"
The boy yelped and squirmed, trying to pull away from the needle as I showed it forth. "Hold still child, it'll be a lot less painful.." I insisted, grabbing his arm and holding it still with my free hand.
"Let me go!" the child cried desperately, squirming. But I kept my grip on him, as did the thin tentacles, as I slowly slid the needle's point into his skin and into his vein, the chemicals quickly spreading into his bloodstream.
Daniel let a moan, forced to change back to his human form, suddenly overcome with lethargy. Pulling the needle back I laughed, setting it down onto the table beside me. "That's a good child…"
The boy growled, struggling to keep his eyes open enough to glare up at me. "You're a sick freak…"
"I know!" I stated gleefully with a chuckle followed by a wide sneer as I leaned in on the child, whispering into his ear; "And you're my best target, too…"
Before he could reply, the adolescent boy only gave me a dark glare, before his eyes closed completely and he fell limp into unconsciousness.
