My body twitches all over. The spasms are relentless and blood start to gargle in my mouth. I couldn't speak I just lay here staring at the ceiling wondering where I went wrong in life. The foot comes back for another blow I would get up but I have nothing left in me. It was almost slow motion seeing the red sperrys meet my head with full force. I can feel the impact as it cracks my skull. The surgery to repair this damage is going to be difficult there's a chance I won't even live past the procedure. I can feel a warm tear run down my face it's amazing even at a time like this I still can't forget my training. I can hear a ringing sound as the pain come over my entire body. My hands, can feel the cool puddle of blood that forms beneath me. My eyes start to close the light growing dimmer and dimmer. My body goes numb and even my brain, But the only thought that ran through my mind like a race car. Is that I chose a job that cost my life...

"Who are you?" I demand. The boy in front of me replies, "That's not how this works, love." I freeze. That phrase. That voice. It can't be. I look up but he's just a cloaked silhouette. The rustling stops when boys surrounding us step from their hiding spots and light lanterns. Every single one of them masked and cloaked. Except the one in front of me. The lamps lit, and I see his face. "Whoa," slips from my lips as I stare at the boy in front of me. His eyes widen and his jaw almost, just almost, drops. With his guard down for that one instant I lose all fear and gain control. "You!" I yell suddenly overflowing with anger. My stomach heats with rage. I fight to stand, stronger this time with anger as fuel. He backs up, his breath increasing. Obviously, uneasy, I take it as a win and almost stand all the way. "You. What are you doing here? How did you find this place!" He switched to angry. "You! You're the reason! They put me back because of you! It was all cause of you! It was your fault! All of it!" I'm so angry I yell only what I can. My thoughts flying through my head I can only yell unexplained nonsense. I've never felt anger like this before. The red glow lightly pours off my own skin and I take notice to it. I compare it to the glow coming off of him. Suddenly, it's an instinct to allow the anger to explode and in doing so the red glow is taken from his chest as I absorb it all and throw it out in all directions. I yank down away from the boy holding me just as the red glow gets sucked from him, absorbed into my hands, and then thrown out in a sphere of red glow. All boys stumbling but not by much and the one holding me gets knocked back, I'm free. "You die now, Peter Pan!"
