Chapter 16
I looked around in the room I was in. There was just darkness everywhere. The only light coming from the window.
I lingered over to the window, trying to distract myself from crying by watching what I was doing out there.
I stood up, and banged on the window, which made a gigantic hand rub it.
After staring at it a few minutes, I screamed at him, "LET ME OUT PITCH!"
He cried out. "You know, I was letting you control your mouth, you didn't need to shout."
"Oh. S-sorry…" It hadn't occurred to me that I really didn't need to apologize, he was the one that locked me up in the first place.
"So… What am I… doing?"
"You're not doing anything. Your body is just standing there… for now. I'd like to talk first."
"S…so.. where is Jack?"
"Can't you see him?" I didn't respond.
"Oh, right. You can't see him." He teased. "He's asleep, they're all asleep, witnessing my beautiful nightmares. Once I let them wake up, they'll fight."
"You don't see the kind to get your hands dirty."
He laughed dryly. "No I don't, do I? But of course, I won't be anyway. They'll fight you. Well, your body controlled by my mind. Quite genius don't you think?"
I laughed. "No! It's the worst idea ever! I don't have any special powers!"
He laughed again. "Don't you see? They won't want to hurt you. You're their friend. Or, at least you were. What on Earth made you betray them?" He said hauntingly.
I banged on the window again, screaming.
"I really wish you'd stop that, it hurts my eye."
"I'm in your head?!"
He sighed exasperatedly. "No, you're in yours, I'm controlling your body."
Sniffling, I said, "So, why did you try to kill me by the lamp post if you wanted to use me?"
"I thought of a way to use your… abilities."
I scoffed. "You, buster, are crazy."
"You don't get it do you?! YOU'RE MORE POWERFUL THAN ALL OF THEM! You just don't know how! Manny hasn't taught you the powers he gave you all that time ago!" He snickered. "His mistake. Then maybe you could fight back, but without them, you're just a pathetic, weak human mortal."
"You're LYING!" I lifted my fists to bang on his eye, but remember they were mine.
"I don't care if you believe me or not. I would try to prove it to you, but you probably can't see them, since you can't see me."
"…" I looked down.
"Well, I think it's about time the sleeping beauties woke up, don't you?"
"Wha- what is going on?" "Yeah, mate. I'm with you this time." "No remember anything. Tooth?" "!" "What Sandy? Oh! You guys look!" the guardians said almost at the same time. "Liz, get away from him. Run! You'll be all right."
I wanted to, I wanted to run like the wind, and hide behind them.
But I knew I couldn't. Not one of my best or longer chapters i have to admit.
