The Girl With Gifts

Chapter Nineteen

I watched silently, as he pleaded with his friend whom he called brother, so it could be his brother, to wake up. He almost slapped him before I grabbed his wrist to stop him. The monster would have programmed him to meet violence with violence meaning hitting him would not wake him up. Only push him to do things he would regret.

I smiled slightly at him to try to tell him we will get his brother back, we just need time and as the monster left them in here with me. We have it.

I slowly walked up to him and lightly grabbed him by the shoulders as I made him sit down gently. I was acting so carefully. The suddeness of any thing could kick him off. Could make him aggressive. My eyes flick towards his brother who was looking at us curiously.

"We need to be gentle with him." I muttered at his curious glances. "You escaped his trance but any sudden tone of aggression could kick him off and we do not want to hurt him but he will hurt us."

He nodded in reply to what I said showing me he understood, I returned my gazed to his brother as i slowly reached up too remove the mask that he was wearing. Slowly, removing it and placing it on the floor. When I returned back to face him I was greeted by what can only be described as something out of this world. He was a beautiful human! With gorgeous green eyes. Taking my eyes off of him I looked to his brother who had a knowing smirk on his face. As if he prodicted my reaction.

I take a few steps back as I think. How do we help him? Gosh Leo, I wish you were here. You'd know exactly what to do, you were amazing at helping people break the manipulation. How did you do it so easily? Maybe you had some sort of power over us all and helped us break the monster's charm and how would we do it without you?

I sighed slightly, as i looked into his green eyes and turned towards his brother. I had no clue what to do or how to help him. I smile at his brother trying to persuade myself. I had no idea how to help his gorgeous brother and I feel like they all knew that even the monster. He had worked hard to manipulate him which meant one thing. Out of the two his power was more superior, meaning even with my abilities and his brothers, we would not win. A frown made it's way on to my features and i quickly turned my back to them and ran a hand through my hair.

Jumping slightly at the contact of a hand on my shoulder, i turned to see his brother reassuring me when his twin is stuck at the control of a monster. I placed my smaller hand on his as my eyes fixed on his brothers gorgeous green eyes. Slowly, my hand reached to the weapon he was holding, i wanted to get that away from him. He could easily use his power to hurt us but i would rather that then this gun he is holding. I smile brightly when he allows me to pry the gun away from his hand and turn in triumph to his brother who smiles eagerly at his brother like this was a sign.

My eyes go up the sky and i imagine Leo looking down at me. Please Leo will you help me? I know it's selfish for me to ask this especially as it is my fault you died but please, help me help them!

I turned my gaze back to him and i knew right then and there it was my mission to help these brothers and maybe they'd allow me to come with them. I knew that when you get out of his control you still remember everything you did and what he made you do. So they would remember hunting me and sadly, would remember everything he made them do and everything he told them about me. I hand twitched at the thought of him telling people his view of me.

I blinked once or twice. My mind not fully comprehending what i was supposed to do, i look towards his twin. Maybe he was the one who had to break this manipulation, he did not know me. So maybe that is why i could not.

"Maybe you should try." I turn to him. Not suggesting, more like instructing him to do it. He did not seem to mind as he had a choice where as, with this monster he did not and he was almost so eager to get his brother back. As Leo once was with me. Pain flew through me at the thought of Leo, i just can not believe he did that.

I flopped down on the bed and crossed my legs and watched them both eagerly, i wanted his brother to be able to make his own decisions. My blue eyes glossed at them wanting to take in everything that happens and jump in to help if need me. The brother who is free seemed to have forgotten i was here as he talked to his brother diving into memories that i probably should not have heard. I tried to pry my gaze away from them to not listen or intrude into their private moments but his green eyes connected to me and i could not move. His eyes glossed over, my heart started thumping against my chest. He was fighting. My right hands finger nails pressed into my skin on my left hand as i watched the scene in front of me. As he fell to the floor, his brother was screaming at him to fight. His voice beamed through the room and echoed only pushing his brother to fight. I shifted on the bed trying to get a better view to make sure it was actually happen and it was not a trick. I forced my eyes to stay open, i did not want to blink and miss anything. I wanted to see him win, he needed to win!
