Watching and Listening - An Empires SMP AU

In her head

           False parked the truck in the empty lot by her house. Hey, good thing about no more citizens, we don't have to worry about parking. Her other personality pointed out jokingly. "We never had to worry about that," False frowned. Yeah, I know, just trying to lighten the mood a little.

           False sighed and crawled into bed. "Sleep and let me out?" She asked sweetly. "No." False answered at once. "I'm sleeping because I'm tired so don't make me even more tired by sleepwalking or sleepmurdering or whatever you call it. And there's no one around to hurt anymore anyway." Fine. 

           She fell asleep almost immediately as her eyes were closed shut. Then she opened them again in the blank white room. "Not again!" She shouted. "Yes again, unfortunately." Her other personality said in disgust. "But we escaped! We escaped." False said hollowly, feeling a sense of dread wrap her up like a noose.

          "Yeah, but unfortunately she's never going to leave us alone. You know that. I know that. She knows that. We all know that." The crazy False stated, scratching the ugly caked blood off of herself. "I hate it when it does that. Can't it stay liquid forever? I like it when it's liquid. And red. Not this rusty brown." 

           "If you didn't kill so many people you wouldn't have to worry about the blood." Hermit False's projected voice suddenly spoke up. "Great, now all of us are here." The other False mumbled, casting the flakes of coagulated blood onto the pristine white floor and smirking as she did so. "Well done, you're making me clean up your mess again. Are you happy now?" Hermit False asked sarcastically. 

           The crazy False laughed manically like all crazy people and said something else, but False didn't catch it. She was staring out of the corner of her eye at this shadow in the room coming from somewhere behind her. She shot an uneasy glance at the floor and at her own shadow, or rather the lack thereof. There are no shadows in False's perfect world. But then who is that? That shadow feels... alive. When she looked back, she saw no one, but caught a glimpse of something blue. 

           Blue. False thought to herself. Everything in this room was important and she needed to not forget it. She glanced at her surroundings again, ignoring her other personality jumping around and making a mess of things, wondering what hermit False was going to throw at them this time. 

           "You're learning." The other two Falses said simultaneously as they caught her gaze. "But you need to be sneakier," Her crazy self added at the same time as hermit False said, "But you need to accept your fate." Everyone stopped talking to look at each other. "Just go on with the test already." False said, gritting her teeth. "The sooner I'm done the sooner I'm out of here." "Wrong." Hermit False said. 

           There was a barely audible click from somewhere and the white room was transformed into a landscape of different flashing colors. One by one, the walls, ceiling, and floor slowly flashed red, green, and yellow. It was rather jarring. But there's no blue, False noted. A suspicious fact that she filed away for later. If she even remembered it anyway...

           Then the gravity turned off and both Falses began to float uncontrollably. "This is weird." One of them said. "Let's see you dodge my projectiles now." Hermit False's triumphant voice echoed through the room that was rapidly flashing through red, green, and yellow. It was making False dizzy. Then she remembered. Projectiles?

           Just as the room flashed yellow the wall to her right opened up a bunch of holes that fired meteor-like rocks at her. The Falses trapped in the test scrambled to dodge but the lack of gravity threw them off balance. She yelped as a particularly sharp rock clipped into her shoulder and drew blood that continued to stay in the air, suspended.
