Between Realities

WHAT DID YOU DO?!

(F) Gänger POV:

A cold dread came over me as I tried to understand what had just happened. Everyone looked spooked. That is, everyone except for Dopple. She-... she looked... peaceful...

"Dopple!!" I screamed, finally finding my voice. I ran to her side, crouching down. I held her limp body in my arms, trembling. I searched for any sign of life- the faintest of breathing; the softest thrum of a heartbeat. But there was nothing. I struggled to stifle a sob. She- no! It can't be!! NO! "...What... What did you do..." my voice was small, barely more than a squeak.

Sabre- both of them- looked pale, and the Red Steve looked horrified and torn between emotions. The lighter Sabre stammered, his voice full of shock.

"I- I..."

My blood was boiling with hatred, fury filling my every breath and thrum of my heart. I found my voice again, but instead of a small squeak, it was a rage-filled scream. "WHAT DID YOU DO?! HOW COULD YOU?! YOU- YOU KILLED HER!!!"

Each of the people around me stepped back a little, clearly wary. Even the Yellow Steves had a hint of fear in their gazes. I felt an incredible power and energy fill me as I stood up and faced the lighter Sabre. You're going to pay for this! The energy manifested into lightning, its power strengthening me. I felt an unnatural feeling come over me as I took a step towards him, and I felt my figure change. I was no longer Gänger, but a strange, white, yellow, and blue Steve of sorts. When I spoke, I noticed that my voice had changed, too. "She was innocent!! All she ever wanted was to help people!!"

I changed once more, now a Red Steve wearing tan clothes, and red and blue sashes of cloth. My voice was also different once again. "And you didn't even give her a chance!! All you did was provoke her, hurt her, and now you've ended her!!"

A wave of pain and bitterness overwhelmed me as I felt myself changing to different people- some Steves, others not, but none of which I recognized. Lightning, as well as blinding rage, filled my senses, revenge filling my heart.

"What- what are you...?" Sabre asked slowly, horrified as he walked backwards. I was slowly getting closer to him, each step adding fear to his already pale expression.

I felt myself change once more, and I stopped where I was standing. I was a deep purple, bits of the different colors scattered on my clothes and skin. My voice was deep and menacing, its tone resonating with bitterness. "You're about to find out." But just as I took another step towards him, a hand grabbed at my arm, its feeling familiar. I didn't look at who it was, but a tear caught in my eye when I heard them speak.

"Stop..."
