Forever Mangled - NatePat

{Chapter 9: Failure}

Nate's POV

Failure. That's what I am...a total failure. Completely and utterly useless with no hope to fix what's been done.

I failed to get Mason out of my head.

I failed to stop him from taking over my body.

I failed to stop him from texting Matt to come over.

I failed at warning Matt in time...

I failed him...I failed my best friend.

Now I'm forced to watch as Mason drags my best friends' unconscious body down the stairs of my basement. Forced to watch as he drops Matt to the floor. Seeing Matt's head slam down on the hard concrete, hearing Mason snicker at the blood now pouring from the wound. Forced to watch as he grabs a thick rope and binds Matt's hands and feet together.

Once Mason is finished with his 'task' he just looks down at Matt with a smug grin on his face. Matt looked so small and frail all curled up on the floor. His hands were slightly red, irritated from the rope tied tightly around them. The bleeding in his head had slowed down some, but it would definitely leave a bruise and a nasty headache behind. His cheeks were stained with dried tears and his face was scrunched up in discomfort. Not even in his subconscious could he receive the slightest's of peace.

"You're one messed up spirit you know that?" I thought to him, trying to use as much anger and hurt as I could. "He was crying and screaming in absolute terror! And you just laughed! You laughed at his fright! Being kidnapped is one of Matt's worst fears! Did you know that!?"

Mason chuckled. "Oh Nathan don't be so dramatic." He said. "If he thought that was scary, just wait until he learns of what I have in store for him once he wakes up."

Mason's dark voice caught me off guard.

"W-what are you going to do to him you sick bastard!?" I screamed in my head.

"All in good time Nathan." He cooed. "Wouldn't wanna spoil the surprise, hm?"

Mason laughed at his own insensible taunting. He turned to go to the other room to prepare for what was to come, making me unable to see Matt anymore.

What could Mason possible want with Matt? He already had me! Why did he have to go harm Matt too!? Was he that set on revenge for us playing these games!?

"That's part of it Nathan." Mason said reading my thoughts again. "The other is using your friend's body as a vessel for a friend of mine."

I felt my heart stop as I realized what Mason's true 'master plan' was.

"Y-your gonna m-make another spirit take over h-his body too, aren't you?" I quivered out.

"Splendid Nathan!" Mason praised. "You're finally getting it now! My friends, that sick 'purple man's' victims, will all soon have bodies again...will be able to live again!

Mason clapped his hands together as I internally cried, so frustrated with what was going to happen to us.

"And guess what else Nathan?" Mason jeered to me, sadistic glee evident in his voice. "It's all thanks to you and Matthew's coming to visit me in my little prize corner! You may have failed yourself and your friends, but you've aided me a great deal. So, don't cry Nathan! Just let fate run its course!"

That was when I completely lost it and broke down sobbing in my mind as Mason continued to scurry about.

Guess not being upset is just another thing I failed to do...
