"I've been meaning to ask you..." Ford stood awkwardly beside the TV, not daring to come between me and my movie, as boring as it was. "What did Bill offer you?"
I sat for a second wondering if I should tell him.
Flashback
I sat in my room confused at the lack of color.
"Hey there, Diamond."
"Diamond...?" I looked around.
Bill was floating towards the ceiling. "Yes, I mean you."
"Bill... Really? Again?!" I dropped myself on the bed but suddenly I was falling forward from the ceiling. I caught myself in push up position. "What do you want now?"
"Relax." Bill waved me off. "No need to get short again. I actually came to warn you, since you forced me out last time."
"Warn me?" I scoffed. "You're a demon. The only thing I need warning against is you." I pushed myself back to standing.
"There will come a time in your future when everything you know will change. It will start with those closest to you and spiral out. I like seeing you punny human puppets try to change the future. You end up causing it so often."
"'Change; Said the sun to the moon; You cannot stay; Change; Says the moon to the waters; All is flowing'. 'Change' by Kathleen Jessie Raine."
"'Petals fade; That wings may rise; Borne on the wind; You are changing; said death to the maiden, your wan face; To memory, to beauty; Are you ready to change?; Says the thought to the heart, to let her pass; All your life long'. 'Change' by Kathleen Jessie Raine."
"You know it?" I eyed Bill.
"I know everything." Bill's eye flashed through thousands of things in mere seconds.
"So... what in my life will change?"
"Everything." Bill floated leisurely in the air.
"Such a vague answer..." I taunted. "Maybe you really don't know."
"Let's make a deal. If I tell you what I know I control your body for 10 minutes."
I scoffed. "Same deal; same answer. No."
"You drive a hard bargain." Bill pretended to think for a second. He snapped and put his blue flame-lit hand out to me. "I can make do with 5 minutes. Final offer."
"No. In those 5 minutes you could destroy the entire Earth." I turned away. "Never will I let you into my mind."
"Suit yourself. Just remember. Everything is going to change Diamond. Everything." Bill lit up like a light bulb. In his eye flashed images of my family, quickly fading to black as everything else did too.
End flashback
A commercial came on TV as I spoke. "He offered me information in exchange for five minutes use as a living puppet."
