"All this time.. you've known I was a shaper shifter?... but how?.. you keep saying how 'you were there' but that doesn't mean anything! I need to know, everything.. All the proxies kept saying to me 'you don't remember do you?' And it's driving me mad!" I shout in anger. But in my tone appeared a small piece of sadness. I clench my hand into a fist as I stare down at a stone. I use my telekinesis to raise the stone only using my eyes. I let it rise up to eye level before throwing it forward. Jack manages to duck in time. The stone just missing his head.
He lets out an angry loud growl but soon calms down once he sees that sadness upon my face.

"I told you my past. But I never told you what happened after." He spoke. His voice was deep and stern yet soft as the sound swirled around my ear drums.
I shake my head side to side as I raise my arm, using my sleeve of my [f/c] shirt to wipe my eyes.
"Not long after I became this monster. I was taken by experimenters into a facility. I had tests upon tests done to me. Then one day, the experimenter decided to play a game... That's when you came in."
"M-Me? But h-how?" I stammer as my quiet sobs continued a little.
"[Name], tell me your story. It will all link and make sense at the end." He replies. I take a deep breath, nodding as I slump my body to the floor. Sitting amongst the grass and the dirt. Jack also lowered himself to sit n front of me. 

"Well.. when I was little, I was always different. I used to have this power that I had no idea what it was. But I now know it as telekinesis.. I used to use this power, even without knowing what it was.. I hurt people, people I cared about.. Whenever I got upset or angry, I always used my power to hurt the person who made me angry.. most of the time it was my mother..."
I sniff as my sobbing starts to increase as I think about how much of a fool I was as a child.
"Looking back now. All the things my mother did, that made me angry. It doesn't make sense.. I got angry over the stupidest of things. I used to hurt her.. I threatened her with a knife, spilt hot drinks over her.. One time, when she tried to pull me away, I lifted her and pushed her across the room... I was such a horrible child! No wonder my parents gave me away!!" I slam my face against the palms of my hands as my sobs turn to heavy crying. Jack remained silent, allowing me to have my moment and calm down so I could continue.

"I remember a friend my of common iver. She came into my treehouse, and, I don't know why.. but something in me snapped. I used my power to hold her in the air outside of the tress house. Then I let her drop. She fell to the floor with a smack and broke her nose in two places.. it made me feel tingly inside but also kind of sad.. But my mother had enough. One night, my mother came into my room, but she injected me with something, causing me to sleep.. When I woke up. I was in a facility. Where they pushed with games. One game leaded me to become a shape shifter... the freak I am today.. after that, I had more tests, one included a lion.. which.. gave me this.." I sigh as I pull down the fabric of my shirt around my left shoulder. Revealing my skin. However, upon the skin was a large scar in the shape of fangs.
"It got out of hand as I refused to turn my form. I was badly bitten.. leaving this scar behind.." I let go of the fabric and it slowly covers up my shoulder.
"I don't know if.. when we.. together.. if you saw it or not.. I was hoping you didn't.."  I lower my head as I think back to a few nights ago where me and Jack had our way in the bedroom. Jack just sighs, lowering his head too, looking at his feet.
"I saw it. I just didn't say anything.." I nod to his words to show I understood.

"The games they made me play. They were horrible.. I always had this partner. But I could never see him due to some sort of disadvantage they made with my vision. Either a blinding light or a blindfold.. The first game with him.. I had to choose whether to kill him, or set him free.. But, I couldn't bring myself to kill him.. the experimenter said he was a monster.. who murdered people.. but I just couldn't do it. I gave him the key for his restraints... but this lead to a painful fate for me. I was electrocuted and stabbed with the knife I was given if I chose to kill him. Once I recovered. The experimenter entered my room and began to carve my skin. Mainly my feet. Causing pain whenever I walked..
My second game involved the same monster.. He had to become my partner to help me complete the game. But he betrayed me. He, like everyone else, tested on me using the needles given, to see which was the fake and which was real... the real was said to be fatal, but I didn't die.. instead, I became the freak that I am.. causing pain to follow with tests and trails.." I growl just thinking about my past. I slowly raise my head at Jack. His hand reaches to his mask, slowly removing it.. slowly I saw his face, I instantly saw what emotion he was showing. It was sadness but also regret.

"[Name]. Do you remember the voice of the monster you were with..?" He asks, speaking quietly as he slowly turns his face to look at me.
"Yes, it was deep and stern. A bit like.. like.. yours Jack.." Jack nods, turning his face away from me, lowering his head.
"[Name]. I was the monster that was a part of your game." He states almost bluntly. My head leans back in shock as I stare at the monster who had once betrayed me. My jaw started to drop as my eyes widened.
"Y-You?... It was you?!" I raise to my feet, standing over him in anger. But he rises to his feet, now standing over me as his height beats mine.
"How could you betray me like that!"
"I'm sorry [Name]. I made it up to you."
"I'm a freak of nature, able to change forms, because of you! You did this to me!"
"[Name], calm down. I made everything right in the end!"
"Oh yeah?! How!"
"I helped you escape!"
There was silence around us as I stare at Jack in shock and confusion.
"You what."
"During a test. I killed my experimenter and managed to escape. But something in me made me turn back and help you escape too. I released you from your room. But the rest was down to you.. I had no idea you would run into the forest and be taken here by Slender! I had no plan to see you again!"
"So.. When I arrived here. You weren't happy to see me?"  There was a pause. Jack turned his head away but soon turned back to face me.
"I was and I wasn't.. I was because something in me felt glad you were alive and well..  but I also wasn't happy to see you as I knew that the proxies would try and get me close to you and soon you would find out what actually happened.. I tried to stay my distance as I didn't want you to get hurt."  He lowers his head as he sighs. Only to raise it back to meet my gaze once again.
"Well it's too late for that Jack.. " I take once last glance at his empty sockets before my eyes fill with liquid as I begin to cry. I shake my head and turn to run  but something grabs me and stops me from leaving. I turn to the source to see Jack, taking a firm hold of my wrist. 

"Jack.. let go of me." I order, but he does not listen. He just stares at me with no emotion on his face. I try to pull my hand out of his grasp but he only tightens his grip.
"Jack, I said let go!" I yell as I yank my hand away. However, Jack refuses to let go. He suddenly pulls my arm, bringing  me close to him. My chest pressed against his. I could feel the heat erupt from his body to be absorbed into mine. It felt so nice but I refused to allow this to happen again.
"Jack! I'm not playing get off!" I push my hands against his shoulders, but with one hand, he grabs both my wrists and hold them behind my back. His other hand trailed along my jaw until his finger rested under my chin.
His touch was so soothing it made my eyes flutter as my body began to calm. But I shake my head to try and remain angry at him and to not fall for his tricks.
He notices my failed attempt, which causes a smirk to form on his face. He pushes me back, leaning forward against me, pinning me to a tree as his lips smash against mine.
