The Mistake | Colby Brock

Chapter Twenty-Five-Return

Jordan's pov
  "Okay so you wanna close your eyes... and find something deep inside you that mad you so mad, so upset, so irritated, and channel it. Make it to your use. Take all of that negativity, to your advantage." Reggie's words were soft, but demanding. For about 5 days we have been training in this place called the 'P.P room'. Yes i know it's a dumb name. He refused to change it after 'years' of having it that way. Anyway he's trying to get me to unlock all of my powers. He says i haven't got them all yet and he can feel it. Not once have i regretted leaving the traphouse.. but lately i feel like i'm missing something in my life. I've grown to really like the people there. As much as i hate it and as much as they might hate me, i miss them. After Reggie and i met me he started enhancing his power to trance people. He says i make positive impacts on people. Like if im meant to do this, i first i was hesitant.. but then i thought David took me for a reason right? What if it was because he knew i could... energize him? In a way. All Reggie has to do is snap his fingers to put people in trances, just like someone else i know that can do things with a snap of their fingers. I got ready as i closed my eyes but i quickly looked up. "Whatever i see, can you promise not to look? I know you can see my visions if i let you but if i want to do this i might have to let go of my boundary." I stated slightly looking at him. "I understand, if you need anything just tell me i'll be here guiding you." Reggie knew about my parents. Well i assume everyone at the traphouse knew too. But i told Reggie from me and he was so comforting about it. I nodded and went back to focusing and i heard a snap. I saw two doors. I went to the one on my right, as i walked in every hurtful event flashed my mind, even some happy ones that i grew to hate, i gasped as tears fell down my face. A flash of white between each memory. •I fell off my bike, frustrated at the dumb thing. "If you want it to be nice, start by not being so mean." Mom. "You and your dad are the best things to ever happen to me and i wouldn't change that for the world." Bang. Dad. "Sometimes things won't be happy, but you have to learn by making it positive." Bang. David. "If love was real, your parents wouldn't have let me take you. Love isn't real." Torture. "Scream again and i promise you'll never see the sun shine ever." 474. "You should've died you brat but of course you had to get even more stronger, you're useless." Killings. "Kill it." His voice boomed. "N-no." The helpless hamster sat still, looking at me with big eyes. "Kill it or i kill you." David yelled through the speaker. This isn't right. "i said no." The 'unbreakable' glass had a crack in the middle where David's face was. Girl, Blood. "This is what happens to people that don't listen." Eyes, my eyes flashed as i looked in the mirror. Am i a monster?• Everything was going in flashing blurs as i felt myself slightly shake from my spot. •David, Eyes, Blood. Colby. Mistake. Mistake. Mistake. M-M-Mistake. I choked on my blood and fell to my knees, Reggie breaking my fall. I felt the ground around me shake. I felt Reggies.. thoughts? I felt his aura. It was white and soft. I couldn't do it. I felt myself being pushed to my edge and i gripped onto Reggies shirt. "Help." I coughed and he immediately lightly breathe on my nose, causing me to jolt up from my spot. My ears were ringing and my head was spinning. "Jordan?" His voice felt like it was miles away yet yelling directly in my ear. I clasped my hands around my ears and kept my eyes shut. My head would not stop spinning and i felt Reggie get uneasy. Was this my new ability? I tried to get up and right as i touched Reggies hand i saw something. It was another flash, but i've never seen it before, i gasped. Reggie limped lifeless in my hands as i screamed for help, but i was alone. I saw Jake crying in the corner. "WHAT DID YOU DO?!" He shouted at me as anger poured out of him. It was my fault. "JORDAN!" I gasped as i shot up from my spot. I immediately turned to my side and coughed up chunks of blood. I heard a sigh of relief from Reggie. "Thank God, you where in deep." I nodded as i struggled to catch my breath. "Yea i think i just got a vision." His eyes widened, "WHAT DID YOU SEE?!" I couldn't tell if he was excited or something but i shrugged. "It was all going by so fast, it triggered my anxiety or something. I saw, you, you where passed out or dead i couldn't tell and Jake... he was yelling, saying i did this and i caused it." Reggie was taken back by my words but called out for Cassie. Cassie was Reggies girlfriend that he met and fell in love with when he moved here. "Hey Jordan, how've you been?" I shrugged and looked away "good i guess". She nodded and started talking to Reggie. Cassie was good. She gave off a really warm energy towards me. I dozed off into nothing, entering an all dark room "Jordan? Can you hear me?" I gasped as i ran into more darkness. "Elliot?!" "Jordan! Jordan! He's close! You have to get here quick!" "Are you still at the house?" I was panicking,  would i have to leave Reggie and Cassie? "Yes! Come back please i'm scared. There's already someone here that's like them. I'm not sure which one but i can feel it. It's strong." I gasped who could it be? "Okay Elliot i need you to stay strong for me okay? I'm coming as soon as i can." I head whimpers echoing around me. "I got to go i don't have much time." "NO Elliot don't-" I gasped awake,
looking to see Reggie and Cassie sigh in relief. "How did you-" "We- I have to go, now." I got up stumbling as i walked to the living room. "Jordan you can't go! You aren't in the right condition." Reggie screamed at me as he caught up. "Do you want to see your brother or not? If you want to go nows the time so go and you and Cassie pack your things, we're leaving in 10." I snapped looking into his eyes. He simply nods and runs off. Minutes go by and they're both standing in front of me. "So, how exactly are we going to get there? It's 10pm so i highly doubt we walk across state lines." Cassie said as she looked frantically across the street, walking away to grab her bag. Reggie looked at me then to the car outside. "Jordan take Cassie i'll take our bags and go in the car." He walked away but i pulled him back by his arm. "What?! Are you crazy? No. No. No and No. I'll just take you two i'll be okay." He shook his head and turned to look at me straight in the face. "You'll drain yourself out. I know you're going to fight some evil villain or something but Cassie is much smaller than me. It'll be easier for the both of you. I'll be there right when you get there. Okay?" As much as i hated this idea. I knew he wouldn't give up. "Fine. Promise?" I held my hand to him. "Promise, bestie." He said as he locked pinky's with me. I nodded and Cassie came back with her bag and handed it to Reggie. "Bye baby stay safe please." She begged as they kissed. They really where a match made in heaven. "Anything for you babe." He said and he waved me goodbye. I slammed into him hugging him. "Whatever happens, know you'll always be my bestie. Thank you for always being genuine to me, Reg." He hugged me back and smiled. "Of course, i couldn't have asked for a better best friend." He pulled away and walked to the car. Once he got in we watched him drive away, i slipped on my ring and bracelet to help my powers. "Ready Cass?" "As ready as i'll ever be." She smiled. "Okay so i'm going to need you to not freak out as much." She smiled and nodded. Cassie has mild powers. Meaning she was born into them but her parents genetics weren't as strong, making her even weaker. Reggie has been helping her with it for years now. She can breath underwater, and make objects appear in her hand with just the thought of it. Reggie told me he calls her a mermaid sometimes because she can breath underwater, it's pretty cool considering i can't swim. "Got it, do i need to do anything at all?" Cassie asked as she looked at me with sincere eyes. "Just make sure to keep your mind as clear as possible. I don't wanna mess up too bad." I nervously laughed as i held her hands. "And close your eyes, it will only give you a mild headache but you'll be okay." She nodded and we closed our eyes. I thought in my head. Please work. Please work. One....Two.... "Now." I whispered as we puffed into the air. Cassie gasped but i held her wrists so she wouldn't fall out of my grasp. We ended up right next door to the so called traphouse. Memories i didn't need or want entered my head. Blood was barley leaking from my nose as i wiped it off. Reggies training did work after all. I turn around to see Cassie, in shock with her mouth wide open. "THAT WAS-" I shoved my hand over her mouth to shush her. "We have to wait for Reggie he should be here in a few considering how fast he drives." I whispered to her and she nodded. We hid in the bushes to what seemed like forever until Reggie pulled across the road.
