Diary of a Mad Poet

who are you?

I flutter my eyes open and lifting my head seems to be a difficult tusk. My head hurts and is so heavy, what happened?

Then it all hits me, Vee drugged me! I stand up way too fast, losing my footing a bit causing me to stumble into a wall. I finally pay attention to my surroundings, I'm not tied up or anything.

The bed I was on doesn't look disgusting or anything. The room itself was just an ordinary room with a bed and window and door. The window looked to be nailed down so I didn't bother myself at it. Gosh my head hurts!!.

I sit back down on the bed, thinking of all the possible reasons someone would want to kidnap me.

"Hey" Victor pops up in front of me, startling the hell out of me. I grip my chest trying to calm my heart down. "Sorry I didn't mean to scare you"

"Victor whats going on? Why did your sister do this? Why did you let this happen to me? What is she going to do to me? Who was the man?" I question him without pause. I'm starting to stress out, and knowing that my mother could probably be gone a whole month and I had no friends at school, nobody would notice I'm gone.

"I didn't want it to happen this way". He mumbles but I catch it.

My eyes widen in horror, he knew and was part of it. "You said you are alive Victor. How are you a ghost?"

"Grace, I can't tell you that right now, I just have to be there for you through your trial" he breathes out

Trial? "What trial? Who are you" my voice revealing my panick all too quick.

"Vee is my sister, I never died, it was just a cover up story. You were supposed to come to dinner and face your first trial without any pain or drugs but you are so stubborn. So we had to change plans and well Alex got a bit impatient with you"

"Who is Alex? Where am I? What trial was I supposed to face? Why me?" I felt a hot tear escape my eye and I knew I'd soon fall apart.

"Alex is the big guy, you are safe don't worry" he sighs then gives me an unknown look "Because you are meant for me, I didn't choose this but I can't stop it, I'm very far away from you right now. I'm just here to guide you" he waits for my response.

"Are they going to kill me?" That's all I want to know, am I going to die. The look on his face says yes. And the tears crash out of me. I sob in a way I have never before

"Its the only way Angel, you'll be revived back to life right after I promise" he sounds shattered but his words don't calm me at all.

So this is how I end. Alone

"You are not alone!" He growls at me and a look of fear flashes over my face. His face softens a bit but only a slight bit. "I'm here for you Grace" his voice is deep and is not of a 17yr old at all. He sounds manly and dominant. I stare in shock but the tears don't stop.

"I am alone, you can't help me"

And  it hurt
It ripped my skin off
And the pain hurt
And I knew then, that death was soft
He would take the pain away
I craved him with no shame
Knowing I'd die alone
The pain stood proudly cold
And it hurt
It really hurt

"You are stronger than you know.... They are coming, I'm here with you" he says in annoyance.

The door opens and in comes Vee and Alex the big guy. Vee changed and I start wondering how long I've been here.

"I know my brother has been talking to you, I can sense him" Vee says snapping me out of my thoughts. "Get up we are going to see how strong you are" and fear overtakes me. I cower away and Alex gives me a look of disapproval.

"Relax Grace, just go with them"

"What are they going to do to me? Are they going to hurt me?" I question Victor

Silence is all I get, he just stands there quiet. And that on its own is an answer. Before I know it Alex grabs me and starts dragging me out the door. I start walking deciding I don't want to get on their bad side. I'm pushed into a room that looks like a prison torture room.

I notice something like an electric chair and all the air in my lungs disappears when I'm being pushed towards it. Alex straps me down and the only thing on my mind is death.

"We know you can see spirits and demons and all the usual things normal people can't, so now we need to know how strong that gift really is. Ghosts feed off of energy, all types of energy. So let's see if you do too, shall we?" She rhetorically asks me in a bored tone.

"Why are you doing this to me?" I stare at her and for a moment she looks like she is thinking about it.

"Well we need to make sure you are strong enough for what comes ahead, then we need to unlock any hidden powers then burn you alive then I guess if you survive we can clearly say, God really knew what he was doing" she gives a smile.

God? Oh dear God

God please help!!! Please!!! Tears start pouring out again. All I can think of is praying now.

"That won't help you get out of this, God knew this would happen, it was his plan in the first place. This is the trial he planned for you, in order for you to be strong enough angel" Victor whispers harshly in my head.

"So God did this to me" and just like that I cry even more, not holding back anymore.

As I watch Vee walk towards a switch through blurry eyes, she gives away no emotion and flicks it.

My head snaps up, my whole body freezing in an uncomfortable position as all the bolts flow through my body, I feel my veins pop and for a second I thought she would switch it off but instead the three of them stare at me in intrigue.

"Feel the pain and absorb it angel"

I hear him but all I can do is sit here trembling for a stop. My eyes shut as I feel a burning inside me. The burning stops and the bolts too, I open my eyes slowly and I can see Vee standing at the switch before darkness starts creeping up on me.

"She is weak!!!" a mans voice screams.

"Let's wait for her to wake up and we will try again and again and again until she dies or absorbs it, either way"

"You are strong enough angel, you just need to see it"

And with those words I slip into darkness hoping its death

As things get crazy
Literally can't wait.
