No Longer Dead

Muffled.

They're all muffled.

Their voices.

Their steps.

Everything is muffled.

The words Masky said are burning their way into my mind; making it's way to the core where it will cause me to snap.

Someone says something close to my ear and I can barely make out what they said.

There it is again.

I turn my head and find myself looking directly into Jeff's eyes. His usual cold and humorous eyes give off an uncomfortably warm stare. I stare back until my eyes dry out and I blink but my eyes feel drier. I hear the muffled words again coming from Jeff and I look down at his lips to read what he's saying.

"Toby are you listening?"

I glance back at him. A familiar feeling courses through my body. I don't feel my heart beating, but I can hear it loud and clear in my ears along with my blood rushing. My limbs go numb and my mind blank.

"TOBY NO!"

My mind snaps back and I find myself on top of Jeff with my axe close to his forehead and Jeff holding the handle to keep it away from him. I look at his face and for a fleeting moment he actually looks a little scared for his life. He quickly pushes me off him and jumps up.

"What the fuck was that about?" He snarls.

"I-I-I'm sorry." I say. "I d-don't know wh-what happened to me."

"Toby, are you okay?" I feel a hand on my shoulder and start slightly from the contact.

"Don't touch me." I jerk my shoulder away from Clockwork's hand and I walk away into the trees.
