Ack, don't kill me, I know I'm late! I'm so sorry! I was trying to think of someone else to use as a bad guy, but... I've come to terms with it. I know it has to be her. Plus, the end of this chapter is totally awesome. Just sayin'. I really hope you Rulers like it as much as I do.
Also, remember how in Chapter 11, I said this story had, like, five chapters left?
Well, I think I lied. :3
EN-JUH-HOY!

Ch 17
Sky's POV
We all wheel around to face the voice's owner.
What? Who's she? The way Jerome and Ian are gasping, it's pretty obvious they knew and trusted this person. And, she's obviously a bad guy, because Mitch, Purple-Sorcerer-Dude, Space Boy, and V-Neck Kid are all trembling in fear.
I like her, though, for some weird reason. She seems nice enough. I feel like I know her. Seriously, though, she looks like a person who's very hard to forget...
"Why do you think I would rather forget?" I ask.
She smiles. "If and when you remember, you're going to be assaulted by emotions, very confusing emotions that will affect your fighting badly."
Well then I don't want to remember. I have to stay strong and do my best to fight well, because apparently I'm these guys' commander. Then again, I don't want to just completely forget them all. That would be bad. "That's not a good enough reason to forget my friends," I say.
"Well, another reason you don't want to remember: You're in a lot of pain, right?" I nod. "Do you want to know why?" I nod again. "It's because those four boys, Ty, Jason, Seto, and Mitch, injected you with poison," she says, pointing to Mitch, Space Boy, V-neck Kid, and Purple-Sorcerer-Dude.
"Only because you forced us to!" V-neck Kid shouts to the girl.
"No one can force you to do anything," I say emotionlessly.
Space Boy winces at my tone. "Well, she didn't force us, but... She gave us two options, and the poison-you option was better."
"What was the other option?" Ian asks.
"She was going to-"
The girl cuts him off. "My point, Sky, is that you don't want to remember the betrayal. You don't want to remember all the other horrible things they've done to you."
"What other horrible things?" V-neck Kid asks angrily. "Sky is our friend! We didn't do anything to him except for the poison thing, and then we had no other choice!"
"Well, what about when Mitch tried to poison Jerome's food? Or when Seto and Jason tried to take and hide Ian's glasses? What about when Ty pinned you to the wall with his sword, Sky, and very nearly killed you?"
Everyone in the room, save for the girl and me, shouts, "WHAT!?"
"Why would you do that?" Jerome asks, voice shaking.
Mitch's eyes widen. "Biggums, I didn't do that, I swear!"
Ian holds his glasses tight against his face. "Guys, you know what happens when my glasses come off! Why would you want to do that to me?" Ian asks, looking hurt.
"I- We- We never did that, Ian!" Space Boy tries to explain.
V-neck Kid stares at me, waiting for my reaction. He looks sad, like he expects me to believe the girl, too.
