Brittany's Point of View
After the little incident, I went back to my room. I cried myself to sleep. Eventually, Isa woke me up.
"I heard about what happened. How are you feeling?" He asked me. I started crying again. "It was terrible. I don't want to do it ever again. I can't handle it. It's too much!" I sobbed. "Grow up. This isn't all about you. Others have suffered worse, I'm sure. Don't just waste around here feeling sorry for yourself." He scoffed.
I am so done! Before I realize what I'm doing, I hear the sound of my hand slap across his face. He looks at me, shocked. He really knows absolutely nothing about girls. As Axel would put it, he pushed my buttons. No! Stop making puns, brain! I am angry!
"What do you know!" I shouted before storming off. By now, I have enough knowledge of the castle to make it to the Grey Area. Luckily for me, it was empty. I plopped on the couch. How dare he?! I am so ticked! Is he really that stupid?! I felt that same hideous feeling that I felt when I used the darkness and a dark glow surrounded me. It feels so terrible. "Make it stop." I whispered amongst my tears. "Make it stop!" I scream. I want to go home. I want to have mom there with me, comforting me. I want to be able to call dad and tell him what's bothering me and how much I miss him. Just then, Ansem came into the room and seemed to understand the situation. He placed a hand on my shoulder.
"You need to calm down." He ordered. I tried to but couldn't. "Take deep breaths." Ansem commanded. I did as he said and slowly, the dark glow faded and the feeling went away. Ansem let go of me. "You need to be careful. When you're learning how to use the darkness, you struggle with controlling it. The slightest thing can set you off. You need to keep your anger in check until you have your darkness under control." He advised. "Thank you" I said weakly.
I wish I could've sounded stronger, but I didn't. "You're welcome." He replied, sitting on the couch next to me. I feel so exhausted. I should go back to bed. I attempt to get off the couch, but fail. I lost too much strength.
"You must be tired. Why don't you rest here. I'll make sure no one wakes you." He offered. I would decline, but I'm too weak to respond. I decide to rest my eyes for a few minutes, but once I close them, I can't open them back up. I drift into unconsciousness.
When I wake up, Ansem is still sitting there, but this time he's asleep. I wonder how long I was asleep. I should probably wake him. After all, he did go through the trouble of sitting here to make sure no one woke me while I was sleeping. I shook him a tiny bit.
"Hey, Ansem." I say, but not too loudly so as to wake him gently. He groaned in response. Slowly, he opened his eyes. "Oh, you're up." He stated. "Yeah. Thank you. You didn't have to do that." I thanked. "Not a problem. I didn't have anything to do anyway. Are you hungry?" He asked me. Just then, my stomach growls, answering the question. "I'll take that as a yes. How about we go to the kitchen and get a snack." He suggests. I nod, and follow him through a dark corridor that he opened.
