Breaking the Madness

Eleven

Anna POV

I remember running into the room. I remember the poor man chained to the floor blood running from his nose and face. I remember Jaiden holding him by the neck yelling in his face. I remember pausing for a moment, thinking of all the bacteria and food particles that would be spraying across the mans face from Jaiden's spit. I remember mentally kicking myself and Luc joking about it being true.

I that was it. I don't remember what happened next.

What I did remember however, was the fog. it was like I was standing in a big, empty, black room. Full of this..... I don't know what to call it.

What I did know, was that I was scared.

There was a chair in the middle of the room with a big screen on it. the screen was blank. on the other side of the room was one of those beds with the curtains. The sheets were black and made of silk. Trust me. I checked.

Not knowing what to do I sat down on the chair, and the screen began to flicker. The picture was of a room from someone's perspective. It was the catacombs, Jaiden was looking directly into the screen.

"Let me go or i'll slit her throat."

Jaiden eyes widened, "Brayden, please, that's not necessary. No one needs to get hurt."

"Then let me go," Braden growled.

Jaiden looked conflicted as if he didn't know what to do. I wanted to take that confusion away from him. I wanted to make it better for him, hold him my arms and strip him of all that fear that was now clouding his dark eyes. I reached out my hands as if I was going to touch him but he was too far away.

"You know I can't do that Brayden."

"Then she dies.... it's as simple as that." Brayden snarled.

I felt pain slice across my neck and I instantly reached up to it. I took my hand away and saw that it was covered in blood, there was a cut across my throat. My hands began to shake as I looked back up at the screen.

"No! No! Dont, don't do that let her go.... please," Jaiden lunged forward desperately.

"Anna?"

I turned at the sound of a voice. It was Kid. Behind her was Woe, Coquette and Bezel.

"Kid! I don't understand.... what's happening," I cried my voice shook with fear.

"It's ok Anna, well, it's not exactly okay. You've been sucked into your own conscience by Luc. He's taken control of you." Kid replied soothingly.

"What?!"

"Shhhh Anna, it's okay, he'll let you go in a moment there is nothing to worry about," Coquette sighed.

I thought for a moment as I came to a realization, "do you mean that, that screen is what's actually happening right now?"

They nodded.

With a bitter sigh I turned back to the screen. Somthing was happening but I wasn't quite sure what.

"Anna it's important......." Kid started but I shushed her. I wanted to hear what was happening on the screen.

"Anna please, we don't have much time, it's important. It's about Luc."

That caught my attention and I turned to look at her, I wanted to know about Luc. He was interesting.

"Good you're listening." She smiled

"What did you have to say about Luc?" I asked as a turned to look at the screen.

"Don't trust......"

The screen went black. I Sat in silence staring at the place the picture had been.

I felt a hand on my shoulder causing me to jump.

"It's ok Petal, only me, Luc," he smiled looking down on me over my shoulder.

I looked up into his grey eyes angry.

"How could you! How could you take control of my body and me here, here to this.... this..... where exactly is this place?" I yelled at him standing to my feet.

Luc's eyes darkened as he stated, "This 'place' is my quarters.... my bed room as you'd say." His voice was rough and unapologetic for his actions.

I humphed and walked away from him.

Luc sighed in frustration, "Petal please! I was only trying to protect you! I didn't want you to have to love that, they were torturing that man and then you had a life held to your throat. I only wanted to protect you, I swear Petal."

He came to me and tilted my chin up so I had no choice but to meet his eyes. He was smiling down at me and after a short moment I smiled back.

"There! There it is. The smile that I live for. Petal you need to smile more often, and that's an order," I could tell he was trying to joke with me and my smile grew.

I had completely forgotten what Kid was saying to me.

Luc's features soured as he ran his finger over the cut in my neck.

"Anna, your hurt....."

I didn't have the words to reply do I nodded.

"Come here," He commanded making me sit down on the bed in the room.

"Here," he hushed and waved his hand.  A bandage and some antiseptic cream appeared from no where.

I looked at him with my eyes wide, "How did you do that?"

He smiled a cheeky smile, "Now that's a secret Petal, I can't tell you."

"Why not?"

"Somethings are better left unknown." he smiled as he started to rub the cream on my neck.

"Why?"

He laughed, "well ranted you just ya curious one?"

I looked at him pointedly, he was going to tell me one way or another.

He sighed.

"I guess you'll just have to trust me....."
