Possesed

Part I - Chapter I

Dark. Silence. Misunderstood mumblings... Something crawls on the slimy floor. It slowly gets up... and a deafening howl rises in the night. It's waiting...
Struggles...it's useless. You can't defeat it's power...
You lose your concentration...you are knocked unconscious... still, something in you doesn't want to give up without a fight...
You try to wake up... but you can't. It's taken over you... it controls your whole body and mind.
A pair of black wings grow on your back and two horns on your head. A terrible pain pertrudes you...
And now... you still wonder... are you possesed?

...

Whispers..voices... rotating in your mind...
Where do they come from? It's too quiet in the room.. there's no one in there but you...
You and him... you're the victim... and he's your curse...
What does he want from you?
Suddenly, the pain stops. You're feeling reliefed... You're falling in a deep sleep... and you don't feel a thing.
Is it heaven? Neah, you're still alive... your soul is still fighting for survival.
Is it worth it? Is it possible?
You can't fight him...so you give up.
You feel like a part of you is dying...while the other one is filling with power...
You stretch your wings...and fly through a broken window.

...

" Is he still alive? " " He doesn't seem so... is he still breathing? " " I can't feel his pulse ! ... "
Voices...again... you open your eyes..
People..all of them looking at you with suspicious eyes..
Do they know what happened to you?
You get up and try to leave.
" Hey ! Where do you think you're going? "
You don't care what they're saying...
You're a cursed-blooded guy...and you don't care...

…

Chapter II
The morning shines... marking the end of your terrifying nightmares...
Freedom, at last...
Someone or something is knocking at the door... and it opens it.
It's... her...
The only person who can understand you, the one who can listen to you ...
Still, she's not the one to know what's wrong with you... and that's really disappointing...
But how could you ever tell her the truth? ..
She runs into your arms... she whispers something into your ear...
Same words... " I love you... "
Now that's truly boring... different day... same words...
You force yourself to reject her... but you just can't..
Her attitude is priceless...
Suddenly... she gets up and looks straight at you..her eyes seem to ask " What happened? "...
Should you tell her?
You show her through a smile that nothing’s wrong…
She hugs you one more time…and then she heads to the door…
Hugs… secrets…and a couple of sweet words meant to remain unspoken… are you truly loved?

…

The room’s temperature is way under 10 degrees… still, you think it’s pretty warm…
She brought a pinch of spring, youth and beauty into your house…
11 o’clock A.M. … you’re still lying in bed, hoping that this day will be just like the other ones: … worthless for you… important for him…
In this type of moment, you always tell yourself you’re a coward…
You’re afraid he might attack…
After 5 minutes of intensive thinking… you decide you should get up…
But in that moment, you start losing your breath…
You have the feeling that two cold hands are trying to choke you…
You’re trying to get rid of them by coughing… but you can’t…
Everything’s getting dark around you… you feel the need to close your eyes…
You’re… dying…

Suddenly… someone breaks the door…
“ Freeze ! You’re under arrest ! “
Your pulse comes back to normal… and the possibility of imminent death disappears… for now…
A couple of policemen immobilize you…
“ For… for what are you arresting me? “ you mutter.
“ For completely destroying the reservation park in our city… you have been seen by 5 people doing it… they helped us find you… however, they told us that the actual thing that destroyed the park had realistic wings, but ,of course, we couldn’t believe that, could we? … You have the right to remain silent … “ said the police officer.
You try to avoid the police officer’s furious look… “ Hmm… prison… this must be fun “ he thinks… and as his thoughts echo in your mind, the policemen take you to the police department.

…
Chapter III
Lonely…
Abandoned…
He’s struggling to take over you… you’re trying to keep him under control.
“ Please…not now… “ you whisper.
You have the feeling that you’re about to faint… Your head hurts now more than ever, and an odd weakness makes your body tremble.
You close your eyes… you find it painful to just look around.
And now, your mind starts to travel in time…
You remember the first time you saw…her…
First day of spring… so gloomy…so clear… and she was like a small flower in the snow which was about to melt…
You went straight to her and asked her if she wanted to join you for a cup of coffee at your house…
And… she said yes…
A livid smile lightens your face… those moments seem so unique, so unreal…
Why isn’t she here? Why isn’t she cheering you up?
Why didn’t you tell her the truth?

Some voices and the sound of the cell’s door make you stop daydreaming and you open your eyes…
Her…again…
She runs directly into your arms… she caresses your face…and you caress hers…
She seems a bit scared…
“ There’s definitely something wrong… why are you in prison? Obviously, they made a mistake! “
To avoid talking, you try to kiss her on the lips, but she understands your plan and rejects you.
“ Why don’t you want to tell me anything?...Don’t you trust me? “
You sigh and try to explain… but she covers your mouth with her hand…
“ I thought I was your best friend… you know, best friends tell each other what they have in their mind… well, I actually thought we were more than best friends… but it seems that I was wrong…
“ You are not wrong ! It’s just that… “
“ What? Is there anything you’re hiding from me? Anything you can’t tell me? “
You avoid looking at her…
She gets up…and she’s about to burst into tears…
“ …and you said I was the only person you could ever talk to… LIAR ! “
And she walks out the door… abandoning you like an old toy…

…
Chapter IV
Her presence still lingers around… you still feel her touch on your skin…
The thought that she’s gone is simply terrifying…
… And it’s all because of him…
Why does he have to exist, to be part of your life?
Why is he in your blood? …
And ,of course… how can you get rid of him?
You feel miserable… you’re probably the only human being who shares its body with another…thing…
And that doesn’t make you feel special at all…

3 days have gone since she left…
It’s already become useless to resist him… he’s gathered all of his strength to take control…
And he’s about to do it…
The black wings and horns grow once again… and as the transformation completes, you start feeling dizzy… and he makes you scream loudly…
Then, you fly through the ceiling, destroying it, and you rise in the night sky. He makes you head towards…her house…
“ Don’t kill her! Please, don’t! “ , you try to say, but no words come out of your mouth…
You fight to make him change his mind…but he has already decided what to do…

Breaking a window, you enter her house under his command…
The sound of footsteps breaks the night’s silence… dressed in a dressing gown, she came to see what happened…
She got scared to death of what she saw… her beloved, transformed into God knows what creature…
You fall on your knees when she appears… a desperate battle between you and him starts…
You cannot let him win this time… she’s lost forever if you lose…
But he’s stronger…
She puts her hands on your face… she looks straight at you…
You close your eyes… you feel that you have hurt her enough and that you don’t have the right to look at her…
You’re moaning…you can’t take it any more…
Every part of your body hurts… pain… you can’t bear it…
And above all, him, trying to take control once again, and do what it has to be done…
In these moments… all you get to say is :
“ Save… me…”
And you fall forever onto her lap… you take a last deep breath…
And you’re gone…
The wings and horns disappear…
An odd fog rises above you…and it dissolves into nothing…
She doesn’t have the power to cry… her eyes have dried up…
She feels strange…just like something entered in her without permission…
“ Please…wake up… PLEASE ! “ she says…
She shakes your body, without a result…
“ Why did you have to leave now… now, that you’ll be a father...”

Chapter 5
A soft, trembling hand opens a massive wooden door… a woman enters through the door…
“ I’m so sorry… still, life must go on…“ she says… “ Are his parents going to organize the funeral? “
“ No… he was an orphan… “ says a weak voice... “ My parents said they will handle it… “
“ Ah… so we’ll see each other at the funeral, won’t we? “
“ I’m afraid we won’t… I don’t think I’ll be able to come… I’d die if I’d see him being buried… “
“ … Where is his body now? “
“ In hospital… they’re trying to find the causes of his death… they don’t know anything… “
“ But…you saw him when he died, didn’t you? What killed him? “
“ I… don’t know… “
“ Alicia… “ ,says the woman… “ You know you can’t lie to me…
Alicia…so this was her name…
Name of a simple girl… cursed by her own feelings for her beloved one…
Her no longer attainable person…
“ I … swear I don’t know a thing about the way he died… he just did… “ says Alicia.
“… Fine, then… I’ll go check at the hospital to see if they found out anything… “
The woman leaves her alone… finally…
Alicia locks the door behind her… and sighs…
She’d give anything in the world to just talk to him one more time…
A picture stares at her, hanged on the wall…
They both…together… ‘till death will tear them apart…
And it did…
Why didn’t God take her, too? She’d love to be with him up there, in heaven…
To see him clearly in front of her… to touch him one more time…
He’s too far away… but where is he?
She puts her hands on her belly...
" At least, you left something in behind... " she thinks.

Chapter 6
Hopes… torn apart… a ruined future…
A true fact… which became a story that no one reads…
Feelings… for a myth …
She’ll always believe in that myth… she can’t live without it…
Still, she can’t bring that myth back to life… but the myth will live into her heart forever…
And now… she’s feeding her soul with memories of the past… but that’s not enough…
She needs more… she needs a special ingredient…
She needs to be loved… she needs somebody to take care of her…
But she doesn’t want to admit it… she thinks she can handle it on her own…
But how can she raise her baby on her own?

The funeral day has come…
Alicia locked herself into her bedroom… and killed her time looking at some photos of him…
In an instant, she closes the photo album furiously…she can’t stand to look at him anymore…
She can hardly defeat her pain… she’s desperately trying not to listen to her thoughts …
Her suicidal thoughts…
And above all she’s feeling sick… she’s already been to the bathroom twice, vomiting…
Still, she feels that deep inside her, an inner force helps her get through all of these problems…
But… where does this force come from? Who’s giving this force to her? Who’s willing to help her, and why?
Reality strangles her… she gets out of bed and decides to go out to get some fresh air…
But when she opens the door… she meets the face of Alex…
Her ex-boyfriend and actual best friend…
“ Alicia ! I was about to knock at your bedroom’s door… how are you feeling? “ he says.
“ Oh… I truly think this question’s absolutely worthless... you know I can’t describe what I’m feeling in words… “ she says, with an emotive voice.
“ Oh, please… you’re still young ! He’s gone… live it up ! Don’t tell me that now that he’s gone, you won’t get to fall in love anymore… “
“ True… I won’t get to know love anymore… “
“ But… why? The baby needs a father! “
Alicia looks at him with pure disdain.
“ What are you implying? I’m not coming back into your arms for sure… “
“ That’s not what I meant! I’m saying that it’ll be very hard for you to grow up the baby on your own… “
“ I can handle it ! After all, the baby will get to know his true father’s past… “
“ And what are you going to tell him? That his father simply died into your arms under suspicious circumstances? I really don’t think he’ll really believe that… “
She starts losing her temper…
“ Don’t you…ever…mess into my life again… “ she says, and tries to leave the house in a rush…
He grabs her hand and looks deeply into her eyes…
“ Alicia… I can’t recognize you… what’s wrong with you? “ he says…
“ Alex…it’s just so hard… “
And she falls into his arms… fulfilling his ultimate desire…
To hug her one more time… to feel her heart beating… to feel her breath…
… After all… he’s still in love with her…
