Hybrid Theory: A [Linkin Park] Spinoff.

The Reason.

I look at Mike,"Something's gotta give." I manage between mouthfuls of salad.
Mike swallows the first bite of his steak and cheese sub,"About what?"
"My....powers.....it isn't safe how I'm a walking time bomb."
Chester speaks up,"What isn't safe is how we are talking about your powers in the middle of Arby's like this."
Rob nods his head in agreement, being as he is making quick work of a large chicken sandwich.
I shrug, jamming another forkful of salad into my mouth,"Say what you want. But something seriously has to give."
Chester clears his throat,"Maybe we could train you?"
Phoenix looks at Chester,"Chaz. There's only one problem with this theory. Only you know what insanity feels like."
"Technically. It's not insanity. It is an induced alternate reality. There is a difference."
I sigh and shake my head,"See? This is exactly what I feel. Constantly. I can feel my body being in two places at once, but no matter what either of me does, it harms the other in some way, shape, or form."
Chester smiles,"There you go. That's the first step to controlling the spliced gene."
"I can't do this. I just can't. No one ever understands. Everyone fears me!!"I clutch my head.
Mike looks at me,"Eren? You okay?"
I close my eyes, No, Mike. I'm not. I can feel it swelling up inside of me.
He stammers,"Eren. I can hear your thoughts. What's wrong?"
He is inside me. Waiting to chew through the ropes.
"Who is waiting?"
The one who gave me the gene.
"Who is that!?"
Who do you think?
"Mark?"
Yes. I told you that he wasn't dead...OH DEAR GOD!!!!! WHY AM I SO COLD!!??
