Empathy or Forced?

I saw the crack. It had this weird black tone to it. Though it was hard to describe I knew what it was. Whatever was inside the egg wasn't ready to be unleashed. I grabbed Hannah's arm and tried to run but she refused being somewhat drawn towards it, like me. Except I didn't want her to get attached to it like I did. Mindlessly risking my life over 'inanimate' objects. At some point we both would get too attached and eventually kill each other or ourselves over what?

I kept pulling until I realized what she was looking at. The egg had this nebula type energy coming from it. It looked as though we were looking into a portal that showed us a small fraction of space. How much more confusing can this get? 

It made a sound which broke both of our trances. I was able to translate it to Hannah, but how? 

"Hannah, we need to sacrifice something or someone," I said in a tone that indicated I was thinking. "Why would we need to do that?" She asked. "I don't know yet I think it needs to heal I have no idea," I rushed together.

"Well how are we going to do that?" Hannah asked inquisitively. "Who said we are going to sacrifice living souls over something we don't yet understand?" I told her, slightly upset. "Do you want to get to the bottom of this or not?"

"Well yeah but I don't want to kill anyone while we are at it!" I said. Hannah said nothing else and just stared at me. After a while she made a smirk though it was the type of smirk if you don't know if that person is menacingly laughing, frustrated, or just happy. 

I looked at the egg for a while longer and I started to get a headache. Everything started to get fuzzy and all I could think of was the Egg.

"Hello Badboyhalo. I hope you understand that our lives are intertwined. Meaning that if I die so do you and anyone else that dedicates their life to 'inanimate' objects. Can an inanimate object talk to you or appear in your dreams?  If you want to work for me you need to show more respect. Now I need some type of blood shed in this room or anywhere near my outreaching vines for me to be able to heal which will benefit you in the long run. It can be anyone except for people who I've captured. I'm counting on you Bad. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I awoke and all I could think about is the Egg. I needed to sacrifice somebody. I needed a plan. And I knew just what to do. You see, the thing that draws people in is food. Knowing the Egg has eaten every food source or ravaged every farm that there is, throwing a bouquet would be an amazing plan. If you are smart you would be skeptical of how this would go.   

People who are skeptical would be prepared for it. There's chests scattered around the room. We would tell people no need to bring loot because theres some in the chest in case you are skeptical or worried. But the catch is there's no loot.  We would attempt to murder someone in vengeance for the Egg. It all makes sense now. I like this feeling. It's a will to work for the Egg. Something to live for. A purpose. 

If this goes south I don't know what will happen but I'll keep trying. I need to help it. Empathy? No. Will? Yes.
