Chapter 13: Who's in control?

I know i know, it's been a month. I only have my writers block and stress at home to blame. I swear i haven't given up on this story! this is the longest i have ever worked with something before, and i intend to finish this. So enjoy this shorter chapter

(Lucas' P.O.V)

I watched Lucy slowly fall asleep against my chest, but for me, I was bright awake. Ever since we fell down here in the underground, I just haven't been able to get a decent sleep, if any sleep at all. Mostly since I always was aware of my lil sis, so she was safe. Just watching her like this, put a small smile on my face. Sure I hadn't been able to sleep much lately, but as long as she could sleep, that made me feel bit better. The pink tutu fitted her too, mostly because she has always wanted to dance, other than dancing in secret with me. But our parents wasn't that accepted by it all when she asked them, since they told her it was too dangerous and too expensive to dance at a good studio. So she and I snuck out, and I learned her what I could, and one time I caught her dancing by herself, which was really cute. She was flustered, but I taught her most of what I could and the rest she learned herself. She seemed to have gotten better, and that I could see just from this dance we just had. Better and better she have gotten, and I'm proud of being her big bro. I let out a small chuckle and closed my eyes, pulling her closer.

"Oi Lucas…can I have a chat with you?" Chara's voice said through my head, and I slowly opened my eyes, trying to look around to see if I found her, but I couldn't

"Sure thing Chara, ask away" I told her as rested my head against the cold stone wall, feeling drips from the waterfall fall on my shoulder as I closed my eyes and imagined myself seeing Chara inside my head. I carefully opened my eyes and saw the dark room where I met her last time, and there in the middle she was sitting, facing me.

"What's the deal with the dancing? I don't get it" She told me as I walked up to her and sat down, just noticing that she was wearing both a red bandana around her neck, and a black tutu around her waist. I let out a small laugh and looked at her.

"Hehe, says the one who is actually dressed for dancing" I said to her as I brushed my hand over the tutu, and looking at her now, I could see that she had tried to change her style a bit more, but she did have some problems with her. Her normal green and yellow sweater was now the same color, only she was wearing a short t-shirt, which reached just past her shoulders, and reached just to the middle of her stomach. Her brown shorts was still there, only that the black tutu covered the most of it. She glared at me and hit the top of my head angrily.

"Shut up! Just answer my question!" She said while standing up and glaring at me. "What's the deal with the dancing?! It's just stupid!" I laughed at her remark, since she was not really that convincing with how she didn't try to hide her appearance. I looked at her once more, smiled and rubbed my head as I stood up.
"Well, dancing for me and her is just a nice way to take it easy" I told her as I looked around, realizing it would always be us two here. "And we do it when we feel for it, because it makes us feel closer than we are." She looked at me with a curious glace and sighed, and stood up. She smiled weakly, but it quickly changed back to her natural angry glare she always seemed to want and send me. I laughed quietly, because for the little time she smiled, she actually looked happy. But now I wasn't that sure if she was happy or not, but I knew she didn't serve this feeling of being alone.

"Really? So that's why you do it?" She looked at me again, walked up beside me and laughed. "That's just a waste of time for you ending doom. You're only delaying the inevitable." I smiled and turned back around, looking into the empty black void that was apparently my mind, with a small hole in front of me. There I could see myself and Lucy, staying close to each other and seeming asleep. Though I knew I was just resting.

"It may be wasting time, but we aren't delaying anything" I said as I sighed and gently rubbed my back, feeling a small sting from what was the scar on my back. "Though what got you so curious? That's what I wonder" She looked back at me angrily, but I could see a small faint red color forming up on her cheeks. She turned her head away from me and just mumbled something before starting to walk away from me. I had to let out a small laughter, because no matter how hard she tried to look mad, I could see that she was enjoying this, in her own way. She glared at me as I laughed, but I could see a small smile appear on her face.

"H-hey! It's not funny! I just wanted to know since you seemed so happy!" Chara said, but quickly covered her mouth as soon as those words escaped her mouth. I looked at her with a confused look, wondering what was the deal with that. she just glared back and stomped her foot right in front of me. "Just leave now!" I laughed and blinked, suddenly finding myself back in the cavern that Lucy and I slept in. Looking down to see her I realized that the weight on my chest was gone, she wasn't there. I quickly stood up and looked around the cave. It was pretty small, and I couldn't find her anywhere. I walked out of the cave and looked around.

"LUCY! Where are you!?" I looked around the waterfall, tapping my foot against the cold ground. I kept looking around the area, but no matter where I looked she was nowhere to be seen. "No no no, where are you sis?!" I ran back to the echo flower, hoping that she was just sitting there waiting, but as soon as I arrived there, I couldn't see or hear her either. I clenched my hands and walked back to the waterfall, going back to where she and I was sitting. I could see a silhouette when I entered the cave again, but as soon as I was about to say Lucy, I could see that it wasn't her, but it was Chara.

"Well, look what we have here. What's the matter? Can't find her?" She asked me with a small smirk on her face, her red eyes shining as she walked closer to me. "I can help you find her, but I want something in return" I looked at her and saw the smirk on her face was even bigger than it was just moments before. I let out a sigh and unclenched my hands, looking up at her.

"And what is that?" I asked her as I turned around and looked straight at the waterfall. Knowing that Chara wanted something of my put me on edge, since I couldn't tell what was on her mind. Her laughter echoed throughout the cave as a I felt her hand placed on my shoulder.

"All I want in return, is a small time of control, that's all" I shook my head and turned to face her, and I could see her red eyes slowly stopping to glim, but it was still visible in her eyes. "Sorry Chara, but that won't happen, I won't let you be in control." She grinned, as she stepped right in front of me, her red eyes fully glowing again, and she didn't seem like the Chara who was stuck in my head. Her eyes were now full of anger and hatred as she grabbed the collar of my shirt-

"I think you misunderstand Lucas…SINCE WHEN WERE YOU THE ONE IN CONTROL" She screamed as I suddenly saw her disappearing and I blacked out.

What a way to end it on huh? i know, still sorry for over a month without updating. i swear, when i get all the stress out of my way, and have less of a writers block. again, as i mentioned in earlier chapters, sorry for any grammar mistakes.

Dark Chara out!
