Puckabrina: What's Going on?!

9: Revealed

Description of the scene in the last chapter: Sabrina decided she would rather have all the emotions (in this case sadness) at once instead of over a while and told her captors that, but the intense rush of sadness led to her thinking about how she was inadequate for Puck and he would never love her. These thoughts then led to her feeling it would be better if she died, so she broke a glass cup, used a shard to cut herself, and then tried to kill herself. 

I'm floating. Floating around, with no worries at all.

You're not supposed to be here.

Not supposed to be? Where else would I want to be?

With your family. With Puck.

Slowly, things become sharper in my mind, more detailed. The visions. Powers. Kidnapped. Hostage. Puck. Oh, Puck. The air feels strangely heavy. I open my eyes, but all I see is blue. It's different from when I first made a magic shield around myself, this is nothing but blue. I try to walk, only to realize that I really am floating. Huh. I thought it was some drug-induced-hallucination or something. But wait... how? Then I recognize the cool water surrounding me.

I start to panic, but then I realize I've not drowned this long. Must be another power. Do I have gills or something? I feel around my neck until I realize I've been breathing normally this whole time. Again, magic.

When I got my first power my clothes burned away and I got that weird dress thing, did I get a different one now? I look down at myself. I now have on a blue dress on, almost the same blue as the water surrounding me. It's made of smooth material that I'm guessing would also flow like water, if it wasn't surrounded by it. Another difference is that it has long sleeves. After seeing them, I realize what I had tried to do. With shaking hands, I push up the sleeves. On both of my arms, there's a line of many thin, raised scars. I must have subconsciously healed myself with my powers after I did this. That's why I didn't die. Relief floods through me. It wasn't even real sadness that caused me to do it, it was magic. Fake emotions being pumped into me. I scowl.

Suddenly, the water level in the room starts to decrease. I try to add more water, but I'm not in control of my powers quite yet, and it's draining quite fast.

"Don't bother," I hear a familiar deep voice say.

I scowl but stop. The water level continues to decrease, and then I'm standing on the padded floor, although it is now sopping wet.

"We have decided to let this boy be with you for the release of the rest of your powers. He seems to heighten all of your emotions. Such is the power of," He pauses. "Love," He says distastefully.

Suddenly, I'm in the dungeon again. I look around and see Puck slumped against the wall.

"Puck? Puck!" I run over to him. "Are you okay? Are you dead?! Are you okay?!?!" I ask, panicking.

He opens his eyes. "I was just sleeping. I'm fine," He assures me.

Suddenly, I'm weak. The adrenaline that had been coursing through my veins seems to disappear and I'm just so tired. I slump down beside him as all the energy seems to drain out of me.

"Are you okay?" He says. I see him glance at my arms, where my sleeves are still pushed up. "Sabrina... What--What did they do to you?" He asks softly.

"They didn't do that. I did," I say even softer.

I see a look of surprise, sadness, and anger on his face before I fall asleep.
