"Everyone will die.. and there's nothing you can do."

"Isn't that the point of why I'm here? To kill them?"

"It was, but is it really what you want?"

"Well why else would I be here then? Just to possess a human and eat their food?"

"But what about Nadwe? Wulvic seems to like him."

"I don't have a problem with the kids. That would make me as bad as Lew killing me when I was fourteen."

"But what about what happened on the twenty-third? You didn't have a problem with Socks either."

"Well that's different and you know why.."

"That doesn't matter. You're just a pathetic hypocrite."

"He was helping me. I'm not hurting someone straight after they help me out."

"Quite contradictory with your goal to kill them all, isn't it? If you're so sure about that, explain what that situation two days ago was about?"

"Nadwe provoked me."

"Sure, sure."

"I wasn't actually going to kill him.. I was just scaring him a bit. If I did kill him I'd only be more of a hypocrite than I already am."

"You're getting weak again, little hybrid. They're only discovering more and more about you, so suck it up and kill them before they kill you."

"But it was my choice to do this and agree to your stupid deal."

"So you better keep your promise. You want them back, right?"

"You know what I can do to you if you don't do what I say."

"But it's only to make me stronger either way."

"..."

"Correct..?"

"Why, of course. I would never do such things just for my enjoyment."

"You seem a bit-"

I was startled by the sound of Socks' door creaking open. I turned to see an eye staring at me through the crack. It was green, which meant it could have been Tbh or Laff. I didn't care whoever it was, but I raised my voice and simply said,

"What."

The pupil of the eye shrunk in fear, and Tbh's voice shakily questioned,

"Who were you talking to?"

I knew he'd ask, and I snapped back,

"Why do you care?"

"I was just wondering. I was going to talk to S-Socks but I guess I'll come back later."

I scoffed, finding his sentence funny. Eight-hundred years alone really affects you I guess. I deadpanned,

"Good luck talking to him. The man doesn't even know who he is. Heck- I'll be surprised if he remembers you."

Tbh opened the door fully, blinding me with light from the hallway. Wincing and taking a couple steps back to shield myself, I growled slightly from the pain. I had kept the window's blinds shut, so I never had time to get used to the light from outside. His face became more anxious than it was before, but he persisted,
