Dark Secrets (Jason Mccann)

On Your Own (Part 13)

Please wake up Jason. Stay with me.

“Jason” I whispered, “Please.” I never thought I’d feel something so regretful. I felt like I’ve lost everything. Like I couldn’t call out for help anymore, like I was on my own.

I held Jason’s lifeless body tight against me. Holding him, sobbing.

“Hey” I heard Jason’s voice called.

“Jason?” I called, looking at his face, especially his closed eyes, hoping it would open up. So I could see those beautiful hazel color.

“I’m right here, inside of you” Jason’s voice whispered. From what I heard, he sounds so weak and tired.

“How do you feel?” Jason asked.

“Normal, I guess” I answered. “How about you in there?” I asked back.

“I feel weak.” Jason told me. He didn’t need to tell me anyway, I could tell by his voice. So weak and helpless.

“Can you go to sleep?” I asked, you know, having another soul in your body felt really weird. Plus, I know nothing about this. I didn’t know if he could control me or do anything else using my body.

“Yes, but then, you’ll be alone.” He said.

“You sound tired. Rest.” I demanded him. I waited for him to reply, to see if he have anything else to say, but I hear nothing, so I guess he really slept, in my body.

“Sleep tight.” I whispered.

Sitting here, it feels like I'm on my own. I don't like this feeling. I like a feeling where Jason is right next to me, not inside of me. I hate being alone. I hate being on my own, like this. Even though Jason is probably sleeping for a while, but I'm afraid of losing him, again. 

I can’t stop thinking. About me.. My birthday is coming up in 6 more days. That’s not a long time from now. Usually people would want to do a countdown on their birthday, but not me. I wished I never had a birthday. I wish I wasn’t even born. I’m afraid to face my destiny, whether it’s full of light or pitch black. I mean, what spirit am I destined to be? A light spirit or dark spirit?

A part of me felt like it doesn’t matter what kind of spirit I am, as long as Jason is with me.

As I was having thoughts with myself, I felt the train shook.

“The train is moving in 3 minutes.” A voice in the train told me. My seat is at the most back, which is pretty far away from the automatic doors. Will I make it?

I took a chance, running as fast as I could.

Will I make it?

“2 minutes left.”

I’m was only halfway. You could say I’m not a runner, I hated running. Especially when you get a reminder like-

“1 minute”

Just like that. I was in front of the automatic doors, ready to step out. But then, I remember something that I left behind. Jason’s body.

“30 seconds”

“Jason!” I want to go back there and pick him up, but Jason’s voice stopped me.

“Just go, I’m still with you.” He said.

“15 seconds”

This isn’t exactly a good time to make a choice.

“Elizabeth, the train is going to fall!” Jason called.

“5 seconds”

I ran towards the automatic doors.

“3 seconds”

Taking my last chances with me, I jumped off the train that’s already starting to fall.

My body landed on the clouds. Which doesn’t feel like a cloud. Instead, it feels like I’m falling on brick walls. But, I was full of relief, I made it out of the train before it started to fall. I think that is going to be my last time seeing Jason’s face. His soft but serious face, those lips, and smile. Those smirk, when will I be able to see them ever again?

But Jason is somehow still here with me.

I can still hear his voice, that’s good enough. It’ll be okay. I’ll be okay.

“Keep moving” Jason told me. Why does he sounds so mad at me?

“Okay.” I replied shortly.

I stood up after my falling on the clouds, continuing to walk on. But then, My knee makes a cracking sounds and I fell again. How can I be so weak?

“You okay?” Jason’s voice called.

“No, my knee hurts, I think it hit the clouds when I fell.” I told him, truthfully.

“You should let me take over.” Jason said.

“How?” I asked.

“Just go to sleep, my soul will take over.” Jason told me. I did as he asked and lay down, closing my eyes.

My heavy eyelids starts to close and my mind began to play a scene, where I was laying down, on a clouds. It feels like I’m watching myself sleeping. Maybe I was.

Jason’s POV.

My eyelids shot open, right after Elizabeth closed her eyes. My hands- well, Elizabeth’s touched my chest, which is her chest, and felt a pounding heart.

“Elizabeth?” I asked.

No reply. I’m guessing she fell asleep, and couldn’t wake up. I couldn’t blame her, this is her first time doing the merge. First timer should feel a little awkward and tired.

But I think she’s fine.

I stood up, well, Elizabeth’s body stood up. This is going to get hard to explain. And t sure does feels weird to walk. I feel weird on the chest, I mean, it could be her bra that’s too tight.. Stop Jason.

My attention was focused on the Dragon’s Lock.

I started to walk closer and I realized, the closer I am to the Dragon’s Lock, The louder I hear a music, it’s like a mixture of a piano and a guitar. Mostly piano. But, after every 6-7 notes have been played, I hear a grumpy frustration, smashing the piano keyboards, making a loud noise. I have a feeling there’s someone who’s trying to finish a song.

I stumbled on nothing while I was walking. Maybe it’s her knee. I traced my fingers around the aching knee, and pressed it slightly, whispering a few words, and a golden light came around swinging around her knee.

A few seconds after, I tried standing up, and it feels fine. I even feel even more energized.

My walk becomes better, And I speed up a little so we could reach there earlier.

Seeing the Dragon’s Lock closer, is exactly not what I expected to see at all…
