Disclaimers are old everyone. I only own Celine, and that's it. Celina Marie, thank you for reviewing. Because of you, I'll keep this up. I was thinking about taking it down. On with the chapter! Warning: Total OOCness, I guess I was on something when I wrote this. But it's pretty angsty here, guys. Read at your own risk! Don't flame me, I'm trying!
Sylar
Her power…what is it? How does it work? More importantly, why don't I feel the urge to just kill this annoyingly sympathetic girl and take it?! Do I not find it useful enough? Or do I just flat out not care?
Care…granted, it's nice feeling cared for since forever and a day, but still it's…unsettling. She's directing her care toward the wrong person. If she only knew…no, the less she knows, the better off she'll be. It's a hard decision in a sense, but given my circumstances, what choice do I have?
Celine…now that I think about it, it does sound a tad plain. Anyway, she seems nice, caring. Too bad I'm gonna have to take her out later. I'm about to start hating that word, care. But why does she? Is she faking it? Is Celine maybe just a figment of my imagination?
No, I'm not imagining her. I know it. She's too sweet for that. Too sweet for my taste anyway…
She claims that she wants to help me, but guess how many times I've heard that. When you kill for the thing you want most, you see enemies everywhere. Threats and people who want to control you. I've encountered, and killed, both.
Controlling…taking advantage of…what's the difference? I hear some people say they're two different things. Not the way I see it. I see them as one in the same. For all I know this girl could be doing either one. If I'm really unlucky, both.
It's funny to me. The only one I can trust at the moment is also the one who's most likely to betray me. Can I trust Celine with so much? If I tell her everything, will she run from me, turn against me? Or will she accept me for who and what I am, despite what I've done?
"Just like Claire" I think aloud, "Just…like…Claire".
And everything fades to black…
A/N: Okay, this is better than the written version. Next chapter: Celine gets the tweezers and apparently scores a new record with her power…while thinking of the injured stranger she has back in the church. Hint, hint guys! See ya then!
