Forgotten

Chapter 4: Darkness

Ivan sighed, walking up to his room. Dispite his good mood, he still couldn't handle the pain that his servants brought to him because of their fear. He sat down in a large chair by the window and watched the slowly falling slow. How he hated the snow. He dispiesed the snow. It looks so pure, so wonderful... yet it caused such painful memories to come to mind. He heard others complain about their countries... their complaints about stupid things. Ivan longed to kill those people. "At least you're county isn't covered such a horrible thing such as snow." Ivan said to himself quietly. He turned away from the window and pulled out a scarf he had been knitting. With a sigh, he continued with his knitting. "Those idiots... If I could kill every one of them... I would. So annoying." he mummbled. This wasn't the first time he had ever thought about killing the others. He actually thought about it often. He smiled at the thought of their scared, dying faces. "First it'd be that stupid American... all that talk about being a hero... he'd just a little kid. He needs to stop dreaming and take things seriously. It'd be really fun... I bet... to beat him senslessly with a fauset." Ivan sighed again, thinking it over. Ofcourse he wouldn't really do something like that. No matter how much he wanted to. Ivan somehow let his mind wander over to Matthew again. He had only met him today...why was it that he trusted him so much? "He's only going to betray you, Ivan." A voice deep in his mind said. "Thats all anyone is going to do. No one really wants to be you're friend. Matthew is most likely a spy or something. Sent to gather all of your secrets, then let all of the others use them against you." It continued. "S-shut up. Matthew isn't like that." Ivan mummbled. "How do you know, Ivan? You've only met him today. You've never seen his face before in you're life! And look at how fast you became friends... True friends don't become friends so easily like that. He's obviously trying to trick you. Trust me, Ivan, He's only going to build you up, make you happy, then he's going to tear you down. Betray you, then laugh in you're face. Just like Yao. Remember how much you liked him? Remember what he said to you, that day? Do you remember WHO made up that stupid plan? You're being tricked Ivan. End this before it starts." The voice said. Ivan looked down at the floor, shaking in anger. "Y-Yao was different. Don't group Matthew with someone like him.." he mummbled. "Stop arguing Ivan. We both know I'm right." the voice scoffed. Ivan quickly punched the wall next to the window, being wary of the glass. "I told you to shut up!" he screamed. He didn't hear the voice again after that.

Soon after that, Toris walked into Ivan's room nervously. "A-are you alright sir...? I heard a loud crash and I came up to make you sure you were alright." He said, looking Ivan over with worried eyes. Proabaly worried for his own saftly. "Yes, Toris... I'm fine." Ivan said with a sigh. He put his hand on the arm rest, looking away. He then turned his head to look at Toris, then gave him a smile. He knew damn well how much it scared Toris to see him smile. He didn't care. "Don't worry about me. I'm just knitting, see?" He held up his nearly-finished scarf. "I-I see sir... Well the three of us are down stairs incase you need anything, alright?" Toris quickly turned to leave. He knew somethingwas wrong and he was NOT going to get mixed up in it. Ivan looked away, not bothing to watch him leave. He turned his attention over to the dent in the wall he left. "Ahh... I'll have to have them fix that." he said to himself as he stood up. That stupid voice. It knew all the things to say to make him mad. Ivan knew that Matthew probably didn't really like him... but what could he do? He was so lonely... Ivan then heard a knock on his door. "Sir.. Natalia is here to see you." Toris said quietly through the door. "Oh... wonderful..." Ivan said with a long sigh.
