Midnight

Two Parts to One Part

Micam's POV

I felt like I was walking on a cloud. I had a strong breeze blowing through my hair. My eyes were closed, there was darkness all around me. But I imagined I was flying. I must be dreaming. When I opened my eyes and looked up, I saw Zalzor's face. My heart went down to my stomach as I kicked and shifted to get out of Zalzor's grasp. 

"Hey!" They yelled. "Knock it off, damn kid!" I didn't listen, I kept kicking and screaming. But I wasn't prepared for what would happen next.

Nathan's POV

When Tommy and I stood by the being, we vaporized instantly into thin air. The feeling was the worst thing I have ever felt. I felt like my insides were churning like butter. My hair that is usually only in an emo cut, is now flying everywhere around my face. My eyebrow and snakebite piercings felt like they were being ripped out of my face. I couldn't open my eyes as they felt like somebody was rubbing sand in them.

"We're here," the being said as we landed. When I opened my eyes, I saw a small mountain. There looked to be a cave in the middle of it, but we were so far away, I couldn't tell.

"What just happened?!" Tommy said.

"We teleported," the strange being said.

"We apparently teleported," I said to Tommy. "This thing said so."

"What thing?" She replied.

"I never introduced myself," the being said. "Nathan, I am one of your souls."

"You're WHAT?!" I shouted.

"What the hell-" Tommy started.

"You can't see it," I snapped. "Just let me talk to it."

"When you were born," the being started. "You were born with two souls, which is very rare. Your parents didn't know why you were talking to yourself and acting strange, so that's why you were admitted to a mental hospital at seven years old. The reason why you are bipolar is because of me. It's not that you're really bipolar, we have different personalities, and when I get a bit more in control, you act different. You acting the way you are right now, that's how you're supposed to be, you're the dominant soul, which means you are in control most of the time. 

"But I've decided to leave you for good. I want to help you find Micam and stop The Shadows. In case you didn't know, The Shadows is a secret...cult I guess you could say of half demons. Micam is one of the most powerful half demons that has ever survived in the real world, that they want him on their side."

"Wait," I said. "I have a bunch of questions."

"Hate to interrupt," Tommy said quietly. "But we should probably hide as a bunch of those weird people are FLYING IN OUR DIRECTION!"

When we hid in the bushes, I told Tommy everything my other soul had said. She didn't believe me at first, but when she did, her eyes widened and she gasped.

"I never told you my name," my other soul said. "My name is Nesseon. But call me Seon. For Tommy's sake, I will take the form of a human."

When Seon took form of a human, I wasn't expecting what he looked like. He had blond hair to his neck and was really straight. He had a black streak in a strand of hair that reached the middle of the bridge of his nose. He had hazel eyes that twinkled in the sun. He was wearing a plain, white, tank top and jeans. Tommy jumped.

"Whos's that?!" she asked.

"I'm Seon, Nathan's other soul," Seon said with a smile. "But we have no time to waste. We need to get up there and stop The Shadows!"

"Yeah!" Tommy and I said at the same time. We jumped out of the bushes and ran through a dark forest to the mountain. We had no idea what would be in there in store for us, but if it meant saving my best friend, I didn't care. Micam was my platonic soulmate, I need to save him, even if it meant dying in the process.

Micam's POV 

The grey-blue mist formed around my hands and around Zalzor. I didn't know what was happening, but I needed to get out of their grasp. I didn't think this through, because when the mist started to form tightly around them, they yelped in pain and let go of me. My heart practically stopped when I realized I was falling. My black hair was flying upwards with the intense gravity. I must have been really high up, as it felt I was falling forever. The ground kept getting closer, and closer, and closer when it came into view. I didn't know what abilities I had, but I didn't think I could fly. I closed my eyes as I braced for the impact. When I hit the ground, I couldn't move, and everything faded away.

~~~Author's Note~~~

How did you like that chapter? I took some really good advice from a good friend of mine to use some more descriptive language. I tried my best to be descriptive. I tried to make it seem so descriptive, that you were feeling and seeing what the characters felt. 

I also feel the need to explain the title. The title "Two Parts to One Part" is referring to the two souls in Nathan's body.
