I remember walking and meeting Casey. Then I felt pain and the world tilted sideways before going black.
I woke up in extreme pain, squirming trying to breath. Then someone touched my arm, I didn't see who at first, but the contact made the pain slowly go away. I stopped moving and laid there, shocked. I looked over to see a sort of ghost with his hand on my arm, "how?" Was all I asked.
"It's part of my power" he replied simply.
I nodded and sat up looking around the room, Josh was talking to Casey, Ray and Major were having a conversation, and a few other people were sitting in the room.
I turned to the ghost like boy, "I'm Drew"
He nodded, "I'm Matthew, but you can call me Matt or whatever..."
"Might I ask, what exactly are you?" I said quietly.
He laughed slightly, "I'm a phantom, sort of....it's complicated"
I nodded and stood up. Josh walked over to me, "I'm so sorry Drew, I completely forgot"
I rolled my eyes, "to be honest, I forgot too"
Casey smiled at me, "I'm Casey, nice to meet you"
"You as well" I smiled slightly, and whispered to Josh, "so, do you like him"
Josh's face went red, "shut up"
I laughed and stuck my tongue out at him.
Ray and Major walked over, "Well now that your alive" Major said sarcastically. And Ray frowned at him, "don't be mean,"
I rolled my eyes at them as everyone else walked over.
"I'm Jordan, and can I speak with you for a minute, Drew" the one with glasses said.
I nodded, "yeah, of course" and followed him.
We walked into what I guess is his room, "I think I know what causes your pain" he said.
"Really, how?" I asked.
"Well I am one of the smartest people alive" he said smirking.
"Then what is it, the cause of my pain?" I asked.
"Well by the looks of it, your cell structure is unstable causing the switches to be random, that being said it also causes you pain because your cells are basically ripping into pieces and forming back together in less than a second," he said, "long story short that is"
"Damn," I mumbled, "that actually makes sense".
"Well it should, beings that it is true" Jordan shrugged leading me back to the living room.
I walked over to Josh and Casey, "I feel so much smarter now".
Casey laughed, "uh huh sure".
I rolled my eyes at him.
