Two For One

It was my friend's fault that I became like this. They forced me to go into that wretched hospital. It was their fault that I killed all these people. It was their fault I became a killer. 

After the accident me and a girl, a year or two younger than me, went to a store to buy food. We were starting our new lives and needed to buy groceries. Our abductor ran experiments on me and her. Nothing seemed to happen to her but I had changed.

When we walked in it was me, her, and the lady working behind the desk. The woman walked into the back and I followed her without noticing. The woman turned around and I attacked her. Once we were on the floor she tried to fight back but she was too old. Her frail and fragile bones started ti break as I squeezed her wrists. She screamed out in agony.

Pulling out the knife that I took from the hospital I stabbed her multiple times. She died of blood loss and I started to drink her blood. I was no vampire but it was so good. After she was dry I ate her skin. The nice feeling of it going in between my teeth. I pulled out the excess and finished it off. I left her meat and bones and walked back out to find my friend.

I hear a whimper in the corner and turn to see her crying. "Don't be afraid of me, I won't hurt you." She looks at me and cries harder. " A man walks in and screams when he see's me. Pulling out his phone he calls the police. "We have to go, now!" I tell my friend. She stays in her spot and doesn't move. The police come and start to shoot.

"No" I cover up my friend and protect her from the gunshots. Soon they stop and come in. "My only regret was never learning your name," I tell her stroking her face. She kisses my head and hugs me. I hug her back and drop dead. All I remember after that was a scream.

~~~~~~~~4 Years later~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I wake up but something feels wrong. My body walks to a mirror and brushes its teeth. Except for this isn't my body. I look in the mirror and see that this is someone who I remember bearly. "No matter what, there is always a way." The saying sets off something like a past memory. Oh, my God, this is- "Ok Jade you got this." I'm in Jade's body?!? How is that possible. I don't know but this something I can't remember at the moment.

She goes to a job interview and it goes pretty well. The interviewer seemed very pleased. After that, she went to the store. Why does this feel so familiar? I can't put my finger on it- well, her finger. She walks out and goes home. This girl gets into bed without even changing she still has on her dress and skirt that she wore this morning. 

Once she/we/me are under the covers my eyes start to sting. What the heck? I touch my face as hot streams of water fall down it. Why is Jade crying? I try to reach out and tap her but I can't, its like we are together but were apart. 

I started to get frustrated. I had no control. I couldn't feel, I couldn't speak, I was trapped. I wanted to give her a hug, look in her eyes and tell her everything is ok and that im there. But I Cant. She dosent know im here. She dosent know im alive. She dosent know and she never will.
