Silver Lining: The Haunted

Ch.14-awake

~Drake~

I woke up in a whirling daze. Everything was blurred and loud. Voices faded in and out as I tried to get my eyes to focus. I felt different but not sure how or what. Someone was in front of me. Was I on the ground? I could see a hand as I got my vision to focus on something. The face behind the hand was still blurred. Why can't I see anything....

"....happened sooner than I thought. I'm sorry I couldn't give you a warning.....calm....going to be.....drake?" The voice was louder than I thought it would be as my hearing came back.

My vision cleared somewhat and somehow and I could make out the figures of Armen, Mia, and Grayson. So who was this person in front of me. I looked at him and everything just seemed to freeze as my mind went into some sort of blank panic. I recognized him from my visions or whatever you want to call them. Colin....

That means.... No this can't be happening. Not now! I thought we had more time! Does that mean I'm a.... I looked down at my hand and my fears were corr ct. When Colin met with me to be xplain everything neith r of knew what would happen after th split and if my conscience would fade away or if it would be transferr d over with my ender half or what. Well we know the answer to that.

We had to of had more time! Why now....why. We can't do anything now can we. If this is permanent then what will happen. With me in a state of panic I didn't realize what I was doing and that I was actually moving. I only noticed until I heard a grunt and noticed that I had hit Grayson. I froze. Mia rushed to his side before checking him over.

I tried to say I'm sorry but all that came out were a bunch of weird sounds. What....?

"Drake you need to calm down your not thinking straight." Colin took a step closer, I moved back farther. I just hurt Grayson. I don't want to hurt anyone else. I looked back over to him. Grayson was sitting up and pushed Mia's hands away when she tried to check him over.

"Mia I'm fine." He looked up to her and then for me. I don't want to hurt them.

"Drake look at me. I know your freaked out. Everything is confusing I know. Let's just take baby steps ok?" He said in a calm tone.

I curled up slightly with my back against the tree preventing me from moving back farther. Colin just turned and look e at the others.

'Weak human....' I flinched at the voice in th back of my head. I recognized it before but it's not him. Shaking it off I kept my eyes on Colin as he kept trying to move closer.

"Drake it's going to be ok we'll figure this out like we always do." Armen stepped forward. I could see him visibly shaking. What is there to figure out. There is nothing we can do. Nothing! His magic was what created me and it's what held me together. There is nothing we can do. My mind went blank again as reality seemed to hit me. I was going to be stuck like this wasn't I? I'm not sure why but I started to feel angry. At what exactly. I'm not sure. Myself? The world? Him? Well he did seem to make life hell even with him gone.

"Drake!" I broke from my thoughts again not realizing my surroundings. "You need to calm down! I know a million things are running through your head. Calm down before something bad happens." Colin was closer this time than I remembered. His hand still in front of him. 

'Weak stupid human' the voice echoed once again but I ignored it. He was right. No panicking. Try and focus!

~time skip maybe few hours~

~Mia~

It took a few tries to calm him down. I guess I would be really freaked out if this happened to me. We were currently trying to figure out what to do. It's not like we are leaving drake. He's still him just in a different body???

The whole situation was hard to understand. Magic is confusing. But we now have a new set of problems. First off what are we going to do now? It's already apparent that drake can't talk human words. Just a bunch of ender sounds.i can tell he's trying to talk but can't. Armen looked at me worriedly as Colin talked to drake for a swhile cond alone. Probably explaining stuff or something I can't tell. Drake hasn't stood up yet. God that's going to be fun. Endermen are taller than people. Maybe a foot or two?
