Chapter 7-
-Strange Introduction-
I awoke, gasping for the little air which was being accepted into my lungs and to find myself dripping in cold sweat, hacking from sensation of horror which pulsed through me. The feeling maintained itself... And honestly... I felt cold.
Colder than I'd ever felt before.
Leaning up against the headboard and shivering from the terror of facing my-creators wrath, I just... Couldn't understand why she would be so against even the idea of... How do I put it... "Teaming up" with Cedric, But then again, it was probably due to how gullible I had become.
It was only then until I realised the sudden increase of sadness I felt- or was it depression... Why?!
I bought my legs to my chest, feeling the emotion almost start to weigh me down... Wait- Oh God.
It wasn't just doing that... It was expanding inside me- like a parasite- trying to take over my body.
Heaving, I felt my mouth let out a small whimper, clutching my head and forcing my eyes closed to stare into the black void that it had been presented with in the back of my head.
Why this sudden emotion?! ... I didn't feel it personally- but I couldn't control it! I dared open my eyes, feeling something as sudden as lightning burst throughout my body- absorbing me... Pulling me down into its non-existent sense... The thing I knew I was created with which scared me from the moment I felt it at its full amount and strength... The feeling which felt as if it was taking over me- The darkness.
And by that, I don't just mean the obscurity and woe... No... The sinister and immoral feelings settled in their place which to my surprise... Relaxed me- as if... I was almost enjoying the sensation.
And with that, voices in my head returned- confirming my insanity to be so...
And for some strange reason, I laughed. To myself- most likely at myself.
After forcing my body to stand, I almost immediately felt light headed and as if I was almost... Floating, that's when a cackle of a laugh escaped from my lips again and I was uncontrollably forced to watch as my sight and body seemed to spin- and spin.
The laughter filled my hearing and consumed it which to be honest- I guess lead to my eyesight fading... Or was it just becoming colourless?... the shades of grey stole the used-to-be peachy toned walls as my blurred fingertips trailed across it and to my dismay I...Couldn't do anything...
My mind was so fuzzy- yet I seemed to be able to stand on two feet...
But, who was controlling these movements? Ha. I was too brain dead by the looks of things to be doing so myself.
Then, what seemed to be like a force sent from the heavens returned my sense back- which also gave me the power to lift my own hand to whack it against what was supposed to be my own head.
It stunned me to feel myself stumble to look for support, which seemed to be the wall.
What- what the hell just happened?!
I must have been hallucinating- or dreaming- or SOMETHING.
Despite it, I let myself absentmindedly fall back onto the bed in weariness and confusion, forming images on the creased ceiling above me.
There's something wrong with you.
I snorted in response to the thought, of course there where things 'wrong' with me- because let's be honest what was right?
I mean for one, there was nothing particularly 'normal' about me- let alone the physical appearance. I was born alien to this word, I'd had a past soul live in this body before me and I could conduct the bloody life essence of my home as a type of defence power I was supposedly gifted with- yet the thing who let me down here invaded my bloody mind 24/7!
Yep- that's how quick I assume things. The event that happened must have been caused by her- as some sort of weird punishment I guess...
It was just a bit peculiar how; it had been about 2 weeks since the little confrontation between me and Cedric had happened... So it seemed weird why she complained NOW.
It was only until then I realised I was still visibly shaking, never mind the fact I'd made an effort to push what just happened to the back of my mind.
Groaning, I lazily rolled off the bed to find something to calm my nerves...
Being human really was a pain in this sometimes.
After settling myself down with a beverage of what others seemed to use as a stress relief- called... Tea, I leant against the brass coloured counter in a state of lassitude.
I guess maybe I was acting as if this was an everyday thing for me, but then again, how else could I act? There was no point looking into these 'hallucinations' and 'calling's'- let alone fight them.
I heaved a sigh, feeling the strands of hair creep further down my back and watching the last reflected sparkles from my eye disappear as it closed- indulging in the peace of this moment. That is- while it lasted.
The bang on the door woke me from my daydream and I naturally huffed-securing my fading, fluffy dressing gown around my waist.
I didn't bother looking through the spy hole as I wrenched open the door to find a brown haired, slightly tanned girl's eyes widen by the sight of me.
Ha, by her reaction I must have looked like I was suffering a horrendous hangover! I glared down at her through squinted eyes watching her mouth moved rather frantically after that, until I finally realised she was actually speaking.
I must have woken up slightly by this realisation as it hit me that this girl was the one from the library... Who saw the argument between me and Cedric- who also probably witnessed my attack upon him... Shit.
"What do you want?" I immediately questioned, ignoring whatever she was blabbering on about and wanting nothing more than to get straight to the point.
She hesitated as she adjusted her glasses; not taking the risk to look into what I hoped had become a more amber coloured eye of mine by my hair.
"I-I was at the library today and the shop keepe- Cedric wanted to ask for you to pop over there today..."
I frowned, he saw me yesterday- literally to organise some books so what the hell could be so important that he had to send one of his customers to do his dirty work.
I opened my mouth to reply when something caught my attention- how did he know where I lived?
No- seriously, I never told him because... Well to be honest he never asked...Strange.
My attention faded back to the girl, who seemed to have taken a bigger interest in the floor.
"Well- um... Thanks for telling me?" I shrugged a little and began to close the door until I was stopped in my tracks as one of her blue sleeved arms wedged itself between it to stop it.
"By the way," she looked up, smiling a little. "What's your name?"
"...Why?" I didn't bother making eye contact.
"I live in the apartment a few stories up; it's nice to have some sort of neighbourly relationship, hm?"
I felt an urge to throw up, things like this didn't go down well with me- let alone the fact this kid was sounding like a total creep... She also looked around 14 which didn't help.
But by the way her arm was positioned between the door and frame; I just had to give in.
"Emma." Well- kind of anyway.
"Ah I see! Well- my names Chloe!"
I looked over as emotionless as I could to see a big smile spread across her face... Screw this.
I nodded in acknowledgment as her arm left the door and slammed it shut, rolling my eyes. Bloody kids.
