The man with a beard smokes, blowing fumes in my face.
"What the hell do you want?," I spout.
"The secret," the man says.
"I can't believe you," I say, "I can't believe you-nearly everyone-is after this secret. I have only known it for a few short months and so many people are after it. This secret really is business."
"It is," the man says, pulling cocaine out of his pocket.
"Here," the man says, shoving it in my nose.
"No," I yell, coughing before I know it. Running out of air.
He takes it away, finally, and I am so drugged up, I don't know what is going on.
"Help me, you freak!," I say, falling unconscious.
"The name's Jeremy," he spits.
What I said - I don't know - but one thing was for sure of what I said...I told him the secret.
That day, countless lives were lost. He ruled the earth. But, one mysterious man stepped in and saved us all. That man was - is - an angel. He told me after it all happened to never give the secret away, or it would be the third strike. Meaning the third time the secret was let out - which would be the last - the world would come to an end. He wouldn't step in. Why? There are some things I don't ask. Especially to those much higher than me. That day, he wiped everyone's memories of what had happened so nobody knew about it.
Present day, I am staring in fear at this indescribable monster that is front of me. In this bathroom, I had just pulled back the curtains to get Nelly, whom was taking a shower, out of here. But when I pulled the curtains back, she was gone. Gone.
"No!," I yell.
The monster screams and knocks me unconscious.
When I wake up, I see Nelly. Naked. Tied up. I am tied up as well.
"How did this giant monster kidnap you?," I ask Nelly.
"I don't know," Nelly says, "I was in the shower one second, and I was gone the next."
"Were you knocked out?," I asked.
"No," Nelly says, "I teleported here somehow."
"What?," I ask in shock, "Oh no. This isn't good."
"What?," Nelly asks, "What isn't good? What is it?"
The monster walks in and looks at me in the face. Now, I know who it is. I know who it is!
"Jeremy?!," I yell.
