Storm clouds

Chapter 24

By the time I somehow get all the details out of my system, I could finally breathe.

"Well, we have a problem here I see!", he says deep in thought.

Well, no shit Sherlock!

I look calmly at him. It was a sickeningly serene calm as if the worst is yet to occur.

We have to get her out. I knew that. But she would never work with us. She hated me. I mean she was just being delusional. She was being naive. Blaming it on me wouldn't bring him to truly love her. He was only using her, when around she see that.

"I think we should get her out but you have to stay away", he tells me.

"No Sebastian, I can't. She might hate me but I still care about her!", I tell him, slightly expecting him to say this but also shocked at his suggestion. Honestly, nothing could get me ready for this.

"I don't know", I whisper at him. I know he was right. I didn't even know proper self defence. One thing I knew for sure was that theory and practical is completely two different things. And even if I was well versed with theory, I was in no position to test out in real life my amateurish fighting skills.

I knew he was right because I would only prove to be a burden by his side and nothing more. And I definitely didn't want to be a burden. I didn't want to hurt him and that's all I was going to do. Pain is pain and it is transferable and I wasn't inclined to do so.

All of a sudden, the atmosphere seemed static, my breathe shallow. The scene infront of me started blurring and a slow drumming sound slithered into my head. Their was a sudden pain behind my left eye and I left as if I was about to float, my throat patching up and my breathe uneven.

The lights start dimming and within no time, darkness encloses around me and I give in to the darkness.
