Hello There 2: Salad's Breaking Point

What you wanted

"Salad snap out of it!" Majory shook Salad's body like a rag doll.

He was completely limp her arms, those salty droplets refusing to cease. They poured from his eyes like a river. This was pure sadness and confusion, he was choking back sobs, he was distressed, he couldn't understand, he WANTED TO UNDERSTAND.

Why do people die.."Why must we die.." Salad mumbled.

Majory stopped shaking him. Her eyes had confusion in them. Those black orbs... those beautiful black orbs of hers. They looked at him in such wonder.

It was not a good wonder.

However despite his question Salad did not expect a response. Before Joyce he had never gotten a response from anything. He had always talked to objects, so blind that he thought they possessed human consciousness. Everything is a lie now. How was he sure this wasn't just all just a huge mind game. How was he so sure this was all real..... his whole life had spiraled out of control and now... he could hear it...

THUMP

THUMP

THUMP.....

That sound.... that awful sound. Salad, for the first time In his life opened his eyes. He wasn't in the open wasteland with Majory anymore. He wasn't even next to Majory. He was back in the safety cupboard, back when the mutant had broken into his home. Everything after that moment was fake.....

He was sacred.. "eh-what.... w-w-where's Miss Majo-" Salad's voice was cut off by a repulsive smell.

He furrowed his brow and looked around. The safety cupboard was cramped and more dark than usual. The smell consumed any breathable air, he gagged. It was the smell of rot. And it was coming from the rotting corpse of a woman right next to him. A woman he knew all to well.

"This is what you wanted. I don't want to do this.... but you made me."
