It has been reported that some victims of rape, during the act, would retreat into a fantasy world from which they could not WAKE UP. In this catatonic state, the victim lived in a world just like their normal one, except they weren't being raped. The only way they realized they needed to WAKE UP was a note they found in their fantasy state. It would tell them about their condition, and tell them to wake up. Even then, it would be months before they were ready to discard their fantasy world and PLEASE WAKE UP.
Gilbert was awesome. He knew that. Everyone knew that.
Ohgott, -
Perhaps they did not.
Never.
He had never seen it coming; the soft hum of the computer, Mattie's voice calling him for opinions on dinner, Blitz barking outside his room were all sounds he liked and were accustomed to. When he heard them, he never tensed, nor did sweat break out on his body and bead on his forehead, and there was never than painful, searing sensation of adrenaline burning its way through his veins, a wildfire clearing everything for his survival. But as he logged into the website he had loudly declared a notch from awesome, there it was: the note, irrefutable, undeniable.
Gilbert immediately shut the computer, and swore never to visit the site again. He turned and smiled at Mattie as the boy entered timidly, Blitz at his heels, ready to beg for a scrap of food or trade a trick for a treat. Gilbert nodded and reached out to pet Blitz.
The air rippled.
It was not a big ripple, but it was rather obvious, making a dent in the wolfhound's head. Mattie did not notice it, so Gilbert drew his hand back and reached out to eat dinner. It did not happen again.
Nor did he want it to.
