"Sorry, bud." I watched as Chase walked over picking up the small boy and i don't know. I felt guilty. You should, Sam. "Anti won't be able to." It was like a stab in the heart. The look that boy gave me as Chase carried him off. You're an asshole. I'm aware of that, Anti.

"Anti?" I glanced over at Sean with this fake ass smile and he frowned. Fake it till you make it right? Is this seriously what you wanted? I wanted to forget Anti. But you didn't. You opened that fucking door. You let yourself remember everything but you're pretending. You saw the way Trey ran yet.. you still acted as though you didn't know him. You are an ass. As I said... I'm aware of that. "Do you really not remember anything?"

"You're not gonna start asking me questions too, are you?" He frowned as I sat down at the table. I took the unfinished car and sighed. The look on Greyson's face. I'm a demon. A demon that has attacked them so many times but that kid... he wanted me to make him something so badly. I pierced my lips in thought as I grabbed some scissors and set to work on finishing it. Jack just watched with narrowed eyes. I could see the remnants of a blue car that Chase was working on. Mine was red. His was blue. Maybe... Maybe instead of orange wheels, I should do blue and stuff. I narrowed my eyes at the wheels I've already cut and frowned. I grabbed Chases unfinished car and the wheels, letting my hand glitch until I watched the glitches travel to the wheels turning the orange blue to match Chases car.

"Anti..." I sighed setting them all down and looked over to see Jack smiling sadly. "Did you really forget?"

"Why would I lie about something like that?" Yes, Sam. Why would you lie about something like that? Shut up.

"Anti..." I turned back to what I was doing desperately trying to distract myself. He doesn't know. He'll never understand. After... After this I'll... I don't know. Go home? You can't go home, moron. You're not supposed to remember it. They've never found my house and they never will. They'll just assume I ran away. Sure... hurt them more why don't you. I narrowed my eyes as I started to glue the wheels down and I could hear Jack sigh beside me. When the car was completely done I actually smiled. I smiled because I did something nice for that child... and I didn't fuck it up. Oh no. You didn't fuck up the car... JUST EVERYTHING ELSE! I rolled my eyes as I stood up and stretched glancing over at Chase's car... that I may have also finished for him this time with red wheels and smiled even more. This... This will all work out. As long as I keep my emotions in check, I'll be fine. HA! We can't control our emotions. You're setting yourself up for failure. Just come clean. And have them fear me again. HELL NO! I don't want that. I'll just... work hard to gain there trust again. That's all. You're an ass...

I know.

"So Henrik said I had a room here?" I glanced over to see Jack giving me this look and I frowned. He nodded sadly and I smiled. "Where..."

"WHERE THE FUCK IS THAT GLITCH?!" I frowned the moment his voice filled the room. Well, shit. Looks like Jackie found out. I was against the wall in two seconds flat. His eyes were glowing and his hair was rustling around under his hood to the burst of hot air that surrounded him. The thing I noticed though... he still didn't have his mask on.

"Jackie, don't..."

"What the fuck did you do to Trey?" Oh, so that's it. He doesn't know about your lie... just that you made the boy cry.

"Who?" His eyes went wide in horror as Jack finally tore him away from me. I just stood there with this... stupid look in my eyes as Jackie looked me up and down. He narrowed my eyes as I just looked between the two of them. You aren't freaking out. Of course, I'm not freaking out. This is Jackie. What's this fire truck going to do to me? Sam you... I know! But think about it this way, if I forgot him again that I would also forget the fear right. I'm not afraid of him. I never should have been, so just leave me alone. "I seem to be upsetting people left and right."

"Well, you are the bad guy so..." I frowned as Jack smacked his arm. The bad guy... Leave it to Jackie to spell it out again. Whatever happened to him leaving you alone? He's not just going to ignore Chase's son crying. In fact... I looked around to see pretty much everyone just watching. Even Chase, who came running the moment he heard Jackie yell out Trey's name. "Fucking Glitch... I knew we shouldn't..."

"I'm sorry but who are you?" His face paled as I laughed awkwardly. "Can people explain to me what exactly is going on here." Jackie shoved me against the wall and I narrowed my eyes. He was starting to piss me off. Watch it, Sam. You're the one that said we had to keep our emotions in check.

"You're lying." I just smiled sadly as I clenched my fists tightly beside me. Sam... Calm down. Why don't you take over than if you're that worried? Cuz your voice would glitch moron... Then fuck off. "Your fucking eyes are septic again."

"Are they? Is that supposed to mean something?" Funny... the doctor never mentioned it. I wonder if Chase even noticed. Probably not. He was to busy crying. Will, you shut up. There is no reason Chase would be that upset over me forgetting again. He should be happy... because that mean's... that means I'll never be that monster again. But you didn't forget Sam. You remembered because the thought of forgetting him and his sons hurt more than the fear you felt about yourself.

"Jackie, that's enough." Henrik finally spoke out and Jackie glared back at him finally noticing everyone was there. "Remember the last time?" Jackie instantly froze up, his gaze falling to the floor in obvious guilt and I frowned. He's right though. I am lying. So why should he feel guilty about it?

"Hey... let's not lose our heads." I laughed a little seeing everyone tense up. "I'm sure he has a reason to be so... protective." My eyes went dark a bit as I glanced down at the hero. "Don't you?"
