Mai's POV:
A scream woke me up. Thrashing about and getting tangled in the covers, I found myself crashing to the floor.
"Mai." Naru's voice came, sounding alarmed.
"Someone screamed." I informed him while pulling off all the stupid sheets that had wrapped themselves around my legs.
"You probably just-" He was cut off by yet another scream. Snarling something inaudible under his breath, he clambered off the bed as well and helped me untangle myself from the sheets.
When the sheets were finally strewn across the floor, we took off running. The screams kept coming, louder and more urgent than the last cry.
"Where's it coming from!" I cried out, frustrated. For the last 5 minutes, we'd been running around in circles, always ending up in the main hallway.
"I-"
"Hello, Alexis." Someone purred, sounding smug. Too bad I recognized that voice.
"Seika." I snarled.
"Aw, is that anyway to greet your uncle?", he mocked, making an appearance.
It was almost as if he was an illusion, but I knew better. The shadows morphed together, blending and seemingly churning. There, in all his 'glory', was Seika, smirking down at Naru and I.
"Naru, back up." I told him firmly.
"No, I won't-"
"NARU, don't argue with me!" I snarled, angry. What did he think he could do? Slowly, but begrudgingly, he backed up.
"Aw, look at little Lexi looking out for her boyfriend." Seika cooed mockingly, a taunting light in his eyes.
"Shut up." I growled, feeling my PK coming alive. The familiar sparks of energy set my nerves alive, flowing through every inch of my body.
"Ah, but if I shut up, I couldn't tell you what I did to your sister and her boyfriend, could I?" Seika asked, placing a finger on his chin and looking dominant. His words froze me over.
"What did you DO?" I roared, feeling the PK energy leaving my in waves of sheer force and power. Somewhere behind me, I could faintly here Naru yelling at me to calm down, but I was way past being able to calm down. No, I was angry. Truly. That brought out the horrendous side of me; the blood-lusting beast.
"LIKE I'D TELL YOU!" Seika yelled back, cackling madly. Then, just like that, I felt something inside of me snap. Thinking back, it was probably the last strand, the final string, connecting my mind to sanity.
Yelling out with anger, I brought forth all the PK energy I could find within me and let it explode. I could hear distant cries, all of them startled and alert, but I toned the voices out.
Having grabbed some sense of what was going on, Seika fumed and unleashed his own PK. I smirked; a sadistic stretch of my lips. He was grabbing at loose straws.
"IS THAT ALL YOU HAVE, UNCLE?" I roared, laughing loudly. I wanted to seem him bleed. See him broken. See him in pain.
He was cursing and throwing insults my way, when a sudden burst of heat vibrated through the room. Stilling, but not withdrawing my PK, I whipped my head from one side to the next, unsure of where the heat-wave'd come from.
"Written is my life in ink from a pen.
I cannot undo what I wrote, no matter what happens...
Because you can and will write out your mistakes...
But you won't be able to erase what you faced."
Someone was singing, a soft and melodic whisper that fluttered through the room. Suddenly, flames exploded from the very heart of the room, spreading outward with utmost grace.
They danced, their flickers of red, orange and yellow casting a homely glow against the barren walls, even though this manor was anything but homely.
"NO. WHY MUST YOU INTERFERE?" I heard Seika roar. The heat of the flames spread across the exposed plains of skin, causing a painful, scorching power erupt from deep inside of me. Crying out, I fell to my knees in pain.
"Make it stop!" I couldn't help but cry out. But no. The pain continued, for what seemed like an eternity. Arching my back, I closed my eyes and just hoped for it all to end.
Ribbons of PK were still flowing out of my fingertips, but they seemed to be pooling around me. Was that even possible? Finally, thank the heavens, I found the pain fading, and myself falling prey to the blackness.
