《The Powers Within》Chapter 4
Advertisement
My dreams are fueled with rage. Rage I didn't even know I was capable of.
When I wake up, I find myself strapped to a bed. There are objects flying around me, and the doctors are frightened. I am frightened of myself. I didn't know what I was capable of. Everything drops.
I look down at myself and unstrap myself just by thinking it. Then the soldiers came in and tried holding me down again. They fly backwards. I walk out of that room with a pissy attitude. I storm through the halls trashing anything in my way.
I am the queen of destruction, and nothing can stop me. Soldiers start storming down the hall towards me. They are thrown back easily.
I go straight to Allen's office. I break the beautifully ornate door down. He looks at me with no fear.
"Love, it would seem the emotion you have for me will keep me safe." He said with a cocky smile. I slammed him into his own desk.
The look of pain in his eyes excited me. I stretched my hand out and made a crushing movement with it. I shattered his left leg. He screamed in agony, and I enjoyed it.
I enjoyed the screams of pain. I enjoyed hearing his cries for help. No one is going to help him. They are too scared to try to get through me.
I remembered my brother, and I stopped.
~flashback~
The wind is whirling around me. I feel power and rage. He hurt me. My baby brother hurt me deep, and I want him dead. He thought it'd be funny to start rumors about his big sister. He thought it wouldn't hurt to slut-shame someone who still has her virtue.
I killed him. I killed him, and I didn't care. I crushed with my mind making the motions with my hands, and I enjoyed it. I enjoyed his screams of agony. I loved him crying for help. Then I realized what I had done, and I hated myself.

~end of flashback~
I fell to my knees, mumbling incoherently. I didn't even understand what I was saying. Most of it was apologies. Some of it was towards my brother; some towards myself.
Then I start hearing voices over mine. Some saying I am mentally and emotionally unstable, others saying I was a threat to society. Then I hear Gray, saying I am just lonely and broken.
Look at me. I am dying, and no one cares. I feel arms hug me. "I remember now, Astrid," Gray whispers into my hair. He lifts me into his arms and carries me to my room. He limps while I cry the whole way to my room.
He starts to hook up the straps, and I begin to jerk and dodge. He falls back away with fear in his eyes. Then he notices how horrified I look. "I don't want to feel like an experiment again. I don't want to feel trapped." I whisper. I plead with my eyes, tears falling down my face.
He stumbles up, struggling with his left leg. He nods and stumbles out of my door.
That was the last time I heard from him for the next week.
It was back to being watched. Stuck in a room by myself with meals delivered through a slot in a door.
I cried a lot during that week. I kept seeing my brothers face. Then seeing Grays. I couldn't escape my past or my future.
I thought about suicide quite a lot now, but I can't die. I have already tried.
I tried to get a meeting with Gray to apologize. The guards don't trust me anymore. They won't let me see him.
I miss him......

(Archived) The Badger Dungeon (Being Rewritten)
Please note: This is the old and original version of this story, it is currently being rewritten to be more cohesive and coherent. The new version will have additional content. Dungeons. They're supposed to be places full of danger and loot, where heroes come to fight monsters, gain experience, and hopefully walk out with some really cool armor. They're supposed to be controlled by a sentient mana crystal with an alien intelligence with goals only to expand, devour, and become stronger in order to protect itself. Sometimes, however, they're home to a family of badgers and an assortment of other strange creatures. Sometimes their core has absolutely no idea what they're doing and is really just trying their best, so can you all please stop judging them? It started out as a complete mistake and now they're just in way too deep to turn their back on the whole badger thing!
