《The Powers Within》Chapter 10
Advertisement
That night, while I was on kidnap watch, Gray walked into my dreams. He gave me comfort and made me calm. I felt safe with him, but when I awoke, he wasn't there.
I felt worried as I got up and ready for the rest of the day.
There weren't any guards outside my door, which made me worry more. I took a shower and put on some black leggings and an oversized grey hoodie. Then I made my way to Grays office.
It was empty. It looked like it was raided and I didn't know where Gray was.
I am filled with rage, and I storm out of the office and down the hall. I don't know when I got to the door or felt the gun aimed at my back, but I know I am in a situation where I can quickly get out.
I turn around slowly, with my hands up. I turn and face my threat. She was the same woman that I stole the four-wheeler. I bring my hands in front of me. I feel the power rush through my veins as I focus it on the woman. I pushed her back and threw the gun on the other side of the room.
I ran outside, and I was surrounded by the dust storm. I spread my arms out and stop the storm. I stopped the storm, freezing the motion of the swirling dirt tornadoes.
I see black suits and shocked looks. I see Gray. I rush towards him just as a person in a black suit pulls the trigger of a gun.
They shot Gray. They shot the love of my life, and I scream. I scream and Cry and lash surges of energy in random directions.
People are trying to calm me down, trying to grab me and stop me. I sling them away from me.

I walk to Grays limp body, slinging the people who try to stop me away.
I kneel beside him and grab his face between my hands. I bring my forehead down to his and cry. I beg for his life back, but I know it is useless. I tried this with my brother when I killed him. You can't bring the dead back. The dead stays dead.
I put my hand over his wound and focus my energy towards it. I may bring destruction and devastation, but I hope for healing. I keep telling myself that it is over. You can't heal something dead, but I kept trying.
I kept holding him like that for hours it seemed until I finally gave up. I looked around at all the people aiming guns at me, planning my escape.
I can't explain what happened. I can't tell them that it wasn't Gray, it was his dad.
I stand up and say as loudly as I can with the state I am in, "You killed the wrong person. It was his dad that was doing the wrong things. Instead, you killed the one trying to correct his father's mistakes."
I smile and use my abilities to force their guns down. "You can't threaten me with death. I don't die." I said with a small laugh. I think I have finally gone insane. I begin to laugh hysterically.
I smile and laugh and cry, and my emotional response causes surges of power to go in random directions.
I turn towards Gray and crawl towards him and lay by his side, crying. I don't know what happened next, but it shocked even me.
Gray moved out from under me, and I scurried away in shock. I start trying to find my words, but I can't. My lover is alive, and I couldn't believe it.

Gray looks around like he didn't understand what was going on.
He looked at me in the state I was in. He tilted his head, in a motion that asked, 'What happened and what is happening?'
He closed his eyes, and I felt a presence in my mind. He had used his powers to get in my mind so that he wouldn't have to use his words.
I nodded and gave him a recap of what happened, trying to block about the part where I lost my mind.
He opened his eyes and looked around us. They dropped their weapons and started to leave, but then I saw a young child.
She was about 12 years old and looked like she hadn't slept in days. I then realized these people were like Gray and me. They had powers.
I started yelling for them to stop, but Gray held me back. He had his hand over my mouth. I struggled against him, but it was to no avail.
I couldn't get him to let go unless I used my powers, and I didn't want to hurt him. I stopped struggling.
I turn to face him, and I grab him by his shoulders. I look him in the eyes and say, "There were children, and you just let them go. That little girl hasn't slept in days."
I hoped I looked fierce enough to change his mind, but he just looked at me with an amused smile. He looked like he could laugh. I scowled, which he returned with a smirk.
"That little girl raised me from the dead," He said, "That is why she looked so tired."
I was shocked, and Gray laughed at my reaction. Apparently, my facial expressions are comical.
I sigh and walk in the direction that the Rebels went. Gray chases after me and grabs my hand. "Where are you going?" He frantically searches my face for an explanation-an answer, a reason.
I respond by taking my hand back and resuming the dust storm.

He listened to the locals babble on the bus ride over about hunters and hikers disappearing in the woods this deep into the mountain scape, those who did make it back where sent to a asylum for uttering such absurdities like lycans and cultists.
