Rin's POV
A series of numbers flashes in front of me. Shaking, since this is so incomprehensible. What is going on? Why is this happening to me? Is Len worried? I have always loved and adored Len, I just never would admit that to him. The numbers are appearing much faster now, and now my head hurts more than ever. Suddenly, there is a quick flash of white light, and everything goes black. The darkness is not comforting. It scares me, it scares me to be alone. Will this ever go away? I try to call Len's name, but his name does not leave my lips. It is either that I cannot, or that I am too scared to call him, to bring him into this darkness inside my mind that I have entered. So now, I am just floating around, waiting for something to happen. A human being can only handle so much loneliness. An image all of a sudden appears, a flashback. Sigh, well this is great. Flashbacks haunt me enough, I had finally been dealing with less. My past scares me, Len doesn't even know all of it. I wish that flashbacks did not exist, that the past could just stay there where it belongs. Who the hell thought flashbacks were a good thing? If I could just erase my past, at least from my memories, and live in the present and future, I would. Oh well, I am going to be stuck watching this. I wish I could control my flashbacks, then I could actually handle them. If only I could tell Len, he knows part of it, but not all.
Len's POV
I have never cried so much in my life. The past, the things I have tried so far to forget, I am now remembering. I can also remember the pain that came alongside with it, which just makes it worse. I am strong in most situations, so I do not know why I am crying now. Why am I feeling this way all of a sudden?
"Guess since they are twins, the flashbacks are being sent to both." "Good, this is too perfect."
"Go away!" I scream. The nurse comes over to console me. "Len honey, are you alright?" She asks. Even her voice cannot calm me down at this point. "Leave me alone! No, this cannot be true, this cannot be happenening." I scream, collapsing to the floor. The tears are falling nonstop. I can only breathe but a breath. "Rin! Rin! I am coming, I am coming. Don't cry, I am coming." I reach out my hand to try to help her, completely forgetting that it was a flashback and what happened happened, there was no changing it. "Rin!" I screamed once more. My voice wasn't even recognizable as my own anymore. It sounded demonic, not even human.
"Len sure loves his sister." Camden said. "Manipulation is the key part of this game, I almost feel sorry for that poor kid." Camden continues. "Don't be, he's nothing more than a bodyless voice." Classified responds. "A bodyless voice with feelings, that is."
Rin's POV
Finally, it is over. I am trembling almost as much as I had then, when the flashbacks were real. No tears fall from my face, because they had been lost long ago. The pain is still real, still alive. Even though so much time has passed, nothing has changed. How much more time must pass? I open my eyes. Finally being able to open them is a relief. The light comes pouring in. I look to see my brother collapsed on the ground, crying. Why is he crying? Had he seen what I had seen? He looked over at me, tears filled his eyes. He looked terrified, a fear I had only seen from him once before. "Len, are you ok? What did I miss?" I ask in the calmest voice I am capable of. "Rin…I am hoping what I saw was not true." The room grows silent. He must've seen the same images I had seen, he couldn't have gotten that worked up over me just being ill. "Len…" I started to say. "You never told me… I thought it had only been once…" These words softly escape his lips. "So we saw the same thing. Flashbacks…" Len started to cry even more. "I never protected you. I failed as a brother, I fail at life." One single tears from the corner of his eye. All his fear, all the pain he had tried so hard to conceal, was all just coming out at once. Clearly, he could not handle this.
"We need to stop, he cannot handle this overload of information." Camden states, trying to hide the panic in his voice. "I don't care, I love to see him hurt. It is like fuel to my fire. Now I feel all warm." Classified responds. "Please, I'm begging you, can we stop this?" Camden says, pleading with Classified now. Classified is surprised by this notion. "Why do you care about him so much?" Classified demands. "Because…" Camden begins to say, but he collapses on the ground in tears.
Len digs his hands into his hair, and pulls as hard as he can onto it. "Leave me alone!" He screams. It pierces my ears, and I cannot help but try to cover them. "Len…stop…" I say, scared to say anything else. I can barely breathe, the panic has set in yet again. I have never seen him in this much pain before. Except...my thoughts are interrupted yet again. Len held in his hands clumps of his hair. You can even see some blood in it. I can feel a tear coming, but I am too weak to fight it. Right now, it's just easier for us to give up until we can find a way to win whatever game we are playing. "Blood…" Len mutters. "My hair is red like a drop of blood." I stare at him, dumbfounded. Len is almost never violent, except when he is angry. But what was there for him to be angry about? I don't have time to think about this, the most important thing I can do right now is help Len.
"They really do care about each other. Always have, always will." Camden stated, pulling himself together. "Oh don't be such a crybaby, they are nothing more than a bodiless voice to profit off of." "No…you don't understand do you?" Camden said, the anger slowly rising in his voice. "Understand what?" Classified said, attempting not to laugh. "Nothing, just nothing."
"Len, what did you see?" I ask. But I am sure we had both seen the same thing. "Rin, is it true, is it at all true?" Len asks. I can hear in his voice, he just wants me to tell him it is not true. "Do you want the truth, or a lie?" I ask. Already, I know his answer. "Truth." He says, with little confidence. "The truth is, I wish I could lie to you about the truth." I say, my voice trembling slightly. I can feel my whole body shaking. Nothing had prepared me for this, for this very moment. "Rin…"
