Escaping The Illuminati [COMPLETED]

Part 4

I would do anything to get it.

 

Anything.

 

There was a knock at the door and I didn’t answer, but it opened anyway. I glanced over to see Tito and Marlon looking at me from the doorway. Still angry at them, I turned over and covered my head with my arm. They didn’t get how serious I was, why should I talk to them? “Hey, Mike?” I heard Tito’s voice. I put my pillow over my ear.

 

“Leave me alone.” I mumbled. Through the pillow I could hear muffled footsteps and feel weight on my bed. I groaned, knowing I couldn’t just kick them out. “Michael, we’re sorry.” Marlin finally spoke after silence. Of course, they always say they’re sorry, but do they ever really mean it? I sat up my bed and gave them both a harsh glare. “You said you wanted to be famous, right?”

 

“Yeah, and you just laughed in my face. I don’t like that.” I replied. They shared a look and I furrowed my eyebrows. “What are you guys up to?” Marlon got up and moved closer to me, causing me to eye him strangely. “Would you really do anything for it?”

 

“Yeah of course!”

 

“Well… I heard of a way from some other cats… do you want to try it?”by now I was fully sitting up with my legs off the side of my bed. How did I know this wasn’t a trick? Something to just get my hopes up? What would they know anyway and why wouldn’t they use the way for themselves? “Sure…” I said cautiously. “What is it?”

Right now we were in the basement where it was dark and only candles. It was a little scary, but I could handle it. Marlon was on his knees beside me as Tito poured some white powdery stuff from his hands onto the floor in a weird shape. It was different shapes layered on top of each other, with a circle as the start of it all. I stared as he did it. It was odd. I was getting weird vibes, but I couldn’t tell if they were good or not, but they were definitely there when Marlon and Tito placed the candles on certain parts.

 

We didn’t tell mother or Joseph. I don’t know why, when I wanted to they just objected and pulled me to the basement. I don’t know what they’d say anyway, I’ve never seen or done anything like this. Marlon said this was an easy way to get what I wanted. Everyone wants to take the easy way, right?

 

“You ready guys?” Tito said as Marlon and he finally sat down on either sides of me. I nodded. “Go in the middle Michael, but don’t mess up anything up in there.” I stood up slowly, not wanting to disturb the silence that hung in the room. Heat radiated off of the candles and seemed to only stay in the middle of the circle. I kneeled down in the same position I was before and looked to Tito and Marlon for further instructions.

 

“Just relax, okay? Don’t move no matter what happens or say anything.” Marlon told me slowly as if it were truly important. “Yeah, I got it.” I replied. He nodded and Tito and he closed his eyes and stated saying words I weren’t able to make out. Marlon said this was the easy way. He said we would summon a higher power to help us. Some friends had told him about it and some other bigger celebrities had done it too. They told him how to do it, but he didn’t want to try it himself.
