Thoughts hold an abundance of power. They are the sustenance of motivation and creativity, continually journeying through the pathways of the mind. Thoughts also generate madness, constantly divulging your haunting secrets in an infinite cycle of mental torment.  They bring emotions and memories, both agonizing and joyous. In this short story, the main character's thoughts declare war against his ingenious mind by racing in and terrorizing his fragile mental state. He has encountered no other being with such a harrowing disease, and diagnoses himself by naming it "Sherlock Syndrome," after the clever yet tormented character Sherlock Holmes. The only question that remains is whether he can withstand such a scourge of insanity.

A place where true love expires, good people get fired and beings are nothing but dust. Where stalkers are heroes, society makes zeroes and madness is not in the crust. Some people are killers, and that's just the pillars of what is essentially rust. When you feel you are mad, but that isn't so bad in a world that is oh so unjust. They'll kill you by car, or from quite afar in a world where all life is fleeting. Don't try to protect, you'll just end up wrecked, for you know their hearts are not beating. They'll kill you my sweet, and not drop a beat, for my story is only just heating. Power means all, even more for the small, but power has a habit of retreating. The bodies mount up, many lives will breakup, as I'm here to just tell a story. Don't look in the hill, though it is quite a thrill, I've heard it can get quite gory. Don't play with the heart, and don't think you're too smart, or you'll die with none of the glory. All are mad from the start, but you played your part, in the world of pure purgatory. Alas look a ghost, be careful you're not toast, you must want to see what I see. Society is ruthless, protection is fruitless, for in madness is when you are free. Perfection is dead, from the wounds we all bled, a cruel fate we did not foresee. While outsiders are safer, if only by a wafer, you can still hear them utter a plea. Now my story is frightening, but oh so inviting, so come now and give it a whirl. I can promise some danger, so don't be a stranger, watch now - we will see it unfurl.

Alex just left Nigel with only leaving a message on a note, telling him he probably comes back - only if possible. Obviously this is a hit in the face for Nigel. The first few months are terrible, and it only gets worse as he gets no word from Alex. No sign of him that could possibly give him some strength to go on. After more months, he loses his hope, killing everyone around as if that would make anything better. Nigel gets locked up in an asylum, declared for mentally unstable: charged for many, many murders. And since he doesn't ages, they keep him for experiments. Since they are very religious in there, they believe it's the Devil his son. After eight years, somehow Nigel keeps seeing this blonde-reddish boy visiting him. He tells him stories, being all cheeky and forces him to wait. The doctors around are trying anything to get that boy out of Nigel his mind, and when they don't succeed, they decide to use electroshock therapy for that. As Nigel threats to lose Alex, the connection between the two fades a lot. Alex has barely enough strength to stay around, and gets forced to find a body before he disappears forever. Strangely enough a patient passes by during Nigel his therapy. A suspicious girl that always wants to know everything that's going around. Since she is the only weak person of them all in a near distance, Alex gets into her body - being forced to share it with another soul. As soon as Nigel realizes that the girl isn't just somebody, and they can't get away from each other, there's only one option left. But what will happen? Will Alex get his body back? (Part three from the RPG Fanfiction series: Like Minds. Part one and two findable @ my other works)

Riku has lived his entire life with an ability that feels more like a curse he can hear the thoughts of everyone around him. From the moment he was born, the voices of others have echoed in his mind, leaving him overwhelmed and disconnected. His childhood was filled with confusion, isolation, and an unbearable flood of noise that made school and social interactions unbearable. Now a Senior High Student, Riku has learned to manage his daily life by avoiding crowds, planning his routines carefully, and limiting his exposure to others. But no matter how much he isolates himself, the voices never stop. That is, until he meets Hana a quiet, artistic girl whose thoughts are unlike anyone else's. They are calm, gentle, and, most importantly, clear. For the first time, Riku finds himself drawn to someone not because of what they think, but because of how they think. As Riku navigates his growing connection with Hana, he begins to question the true nature of his ability. Is it really a curse, or has he simply never found someone who made it feel like anything else?
