Chapter 7: Three.
It was a Saturday morning, which meant no school for me. All I had
to do was sit at home and watch as hours go by. If had nothing to do,
and I desired not to find anything to do. I just wanted to be alone, so
very, very, alone.
After Alice's appearance last night, I didn't want to talk to
anyone. I didn't want to forget what I did. For it all to be washed away
in happiness and good times. I haven't been punished enough yet, so I
must refrain from fun. Refrain from letting go of what I have to keep.
If I do not remember what I have done, who will?
I took a small sip of coffee and quickly spat it out. It was
extremely hot. Quickly forgetting about the hot coffee, I looked out the
window. It was a bright outside, beautiful to say the least. Through the
windows poured in white light, brightening up the kitchen.
Getting up from my chair, I walked over to the window and looked out
into the brightness. But only for a second. I quickly closed the blinds,
and went back to my chair to sit down.
The room was now dark, and it made me feel neither better nor worse.
I just wanted the light gone, for it brought to much comfort.
"Painful memories I see."
I looked behind me to see a girl with short purple hair, half
submersed in the shadows. She wore a very skimpy purple miniskirt and a
very tight tank-top to match. It was that same old bitch again, Sarah.
"Why don't you just go away? You're a bother."
She smiled and walked out of the shadows. Moving around the table in
the center of the kitchen, she sat down in the chair at the opposite end
of the table from where I sat. "That's not a very nice way to talk to
me."
I sighed at her and tapped my finger on the table. "Okay. Sarah.
Lean forward and I'll give you a surprise."
She quickly complied and leaned over the table, her head now only a
few inches from my face. "Okay now what?"
Quickly I picked up the cup of hot coffee and threw the dark brown
liquid in her face. She pulled back and screamed slightly in pain. I
couldn't blame her. It was very hot coffee. She moved her hands up to
her face and started to rub of the coffee.
I smiled and leaned back on my chair. "Now go away, will you? You're
not welcome in my house."
Her voice was now an angry one as she pulled her hands away from her
now bright red face. "That was not funny! You will come with me now! Or
you'll pay dearly!"
"No."
Sarah stood up slowly and sighed angrily. "You should be lucky I'm
under orders not to hurt you. Next time things may change. So your mind
better change as well, or something bad may happen to you." And she
vanished.................
"Shot down again?"
"Shut up!"
"I told you."
"He'll be mine soon enough."
"And you can't use magic on him. He's to valuable."
"There goes plan A."............
Yawning, I turned on the light to my bedroom. It was time to rest a
little.
I walked over to my bed and looked down at it in surprise. It was
all made up, and there were four things on it. A large sword. A
revolver. And about thirty bullets. Also, there was a piece of folded up
paper on the bed.
Picking it up, I read it out loud. "Weapons. You may not want to use
them, but you're going to need them soon." And there was a signature at
the bottom. "Lilith."
I tossed the piece of paper on the floor and shoved all the weapons
onto the floor as well. I was not going to fight, not going to kill. I
just wanted to be left alone in my pain. I will not do anything to draw
attention, I would just blend into the shadows. That's how it would be.
Yet it seemed everyone wanted me to do something, and told me nothing.
As though I was a toy in some sort of twisted game.
Never would I use these weapons, never! But they would be useful if
I bumped into Sarah again. I would never kill anyone again, not even
her. It would be too much weight on my soul. I already feel like I'm
going to break under the pressure.
Shutting off all of that, I lay down on bed, covering myself with
the blankets. And falling asleep............
I was in the darkness, the cold darkness. Much like before except it
felt a little colder, but only a little. It seemed I was dreaming again,
not only dreaming, but I'm here. I all the sudden had the feeling I
would soon be joined by someone else.
And I was. Only a second after I thought about it, a man appeared.
He was dressed in white robes and had long brown hair. It was the man
from the dream I had before.
The man stood there for a few seconds and then waved his hand
slightly. Then in a flash of light, three people appeared in front of
him.
They were three girls each standing at attention, each looking
almost lifeless. Like a doll or something. I knew all three of them
though.
The one to the right with long green hair, and wore a white T-shirt
and blue jeans, was Alice. The same Alice I bumped into on my way to
school a couple days ago. The same Alice that dumped a can of Pepsi over
me. And the same Alice who insisted on helping me.
The girl in the middle had short purple hair, and wore a skimpy two
piece bathing suit. I knew who that was also. Sarah, god how I hated
her.
And finally, the one on the left, with long red hair, wearing a long
white robe, was Lilith. The mystery women who spoke in all riddles and
seemed to care about me in some way or another.
I turned my attention from the three lifeless girls to the man in
white. He was now holding a cane and smiling. "You know you have three
girls chasing you. Which one do you like best. Alice, Sarah or Lilith?"
I frowned at this man, whoever he was. He claimed to be the other
half of me the other first time we met, but was he really that. Was
anything what it seemed. The whole world seemed to be going to hell in a
hand basket. Everything was confusing and I can't tell the difference
between fact or fiction anymore. "None of the three. I don't like
anyone."
"Liar." He tapped Sarah on the head with the cane and his smile
widened. "Personally I like Lilith. She has no feminine modesty and is
the most beautiful of the bunch. I also know she will do ANYTHING to
have you." He paused and tapped Lilith on the shoulder with his cane.
"Now Lilith here is silent, but willful. Mysterious, but also cares for
you deeply." And then, finally, he tapped on Alice's shoulder. "Now
Alice, is a bubbly, happy, outgoing person who just wants to help you.
She is a little aggressive though and wants to get her way. Much like a
spoiled brat. So which of the three do you like?"
"None."
The smile vanished from the mans face as he heard that. "You're
really making it difficult. Why don't you just admit it? I know who you
like, love, out of all of them. I am a part of you, so I know what you
know. But you don't know what I know!"
"Let's make a deal. You tell me all you know about what's going on,
and I'll tell you who I like out of the three of them. Deal?" I extended
my hand.
He grabbed it and shook it a little, and then pulled back. "But if
you do wake up you'll have to tell me next time I enter your dreams. Got
it?" I nodded. "Good. Okay, now. What's going on is, the end of the
world."
"What!?"
He nodded slightly. "It's true. The world is ending, or at least the
world as you know it. Everyone is pulling to win the war. And that's
where you come in."
"How?"
"Well, consider what's going on as a game of capture the flag. And
you're the flag. If they get you, and bring you home, they win."
"Who's they?"
"Well I can't ruin all the surprises. Consider it Good against Evil
against Neutral. They all need you to win, all the three factions."
"But......."
"Oh my! You're waking up. Well I bid you fare well. Don't die, and
I'll hear from you next time on which of the girls you love. Have a good
time!" And I vanished from the dream world.
