7- Unseen Figures

(3rd Person)

The chimera continued staring at the wall blankly, urging Karl to look behind him as well.
He looked back at his friend and played it off as a joke, "Tommy there's nothing behind me.. Its just a wall.." he said with an awkward chuckle.

His friend looked over at Karl and smiled, "My mom really seems to love you. She keeps pointing at you."
That one sentence made Karls heart drop, as he whipped his head around.
Still nothing...

He looked back to his friend as his mind ran, Does he know? Can he see his mom or- No.. I've known tommy a while and when he says he sees something, he probably can. I've never known tommy to lie.. But...

His friend just continued smiling at him, so Karl played along. Karl turned around to face the wall Tommy once looked at and waved, "Hi, Tommys mom!"
Karl heard a small giggle emit from his friend, "Shes not there anymore.."
Karl turned back to Tommy, "Oh-"
"She's right behind you." the chimera finished.

That amplified Karls nerves as he stared at the chimera, "What? Why?"
Tommy just shrugged but then looked over Karls shoulder, "Oh- Sorry Karl, I've gotta go. Seeya Karl! Bye mom!" he said, standing up and bounding towards the double swinging doors.

Karl sighed, Tommy didn't deserve what these people did to him.

~~~Later~~~

Karl lied on his bed, staring upward, at the ceiling. He was awaiting his friends return.
Tommy had been gone since breakfast.
It was about to hit lunch time.
For any of you who don't know how long that is, thats about 4hrs.

The young male started to get worried about his friend. It was then amplified by the look on his face when he came through the door.
"Tommy! You're back!" Karl said, springing off his bed.
The chimera just gave a subtle grunt of confirmation.

The taller male just shuffled to his bed and sat down slowly. He looked tired.
Karl walked over to Tommys bed and crouched next to him, putting a hand on his forehead.
"Tommy.. You're freezing. What did they do to you..?"

Karl had been friends with Tommy long enough to know that instead of Tommy burning up when he was sick, he would get colder.
Tommys body temperature was already usually through the roof because of bad reactions to genes, so his body reacted differently to illnesses.

His friend just looked up at him and smiled, "I'm fine."
Karl gave a heavy sigh, "Tommy, you always say that. It's beginning to seem like they make you say that.."

The chimeras smile drooped slightly and became a half smile. "Karl.. I really am-"
"Bullshit!" Karl shouted, making Tommy jump.
"Tommy! You're my goddamn brother! Please.." Karl pleaded.

Tommy stared at his worried friend, his smile completely faded.
"They.. They gave me a potion.." He said, looking down at the floor.
"They've been testing different potions on me.. This one was called potion of night vision.. They said it had a negative effect.."

Karl nodded, happily listening to his friends troubles.
"Last time they tried potion of harming. That one made me feel a whole lot better though."
Karl frowned, "Tommy.. Why haven't you been telling me this..?"

The taller male looked up at his friend, "I didn't want to worry you more than I already have."
Karl sighed, "Not telling me things worries me more Tommy.."

They sat there in silence for a couple minutes, before Karl spoke up, "It's almost lunch time. Wanna go get something to eat?"
The chimera just shook his head, "I can't."

The older boy just looked at his friend, "What? Why not.?"
The chimera started to bounce his leg, "I um.. I can't have things with water in them.."
The taller male scratched the back of his head, "Kinda like an actual Enderman but like, on steroids.."
