DN Anites (Always Open)

i smirked and said''so you broke my heart? i break you.'' my eyes different colors left gold right green. i snapped my fingers and my tourtchure kit behind me. i picked up a syringe and filled it with a clear liquid.''oh this is gonna be enjoyable...'' walking to him with the syringe. i grabbed him by his hair turning his head painfully. i injected the liquid and said''you'll love this this will take away your powers each taken brings you more and more pain.'' chase screamed loudly in pain. i said''oh and this is a new one i made...'' taking out what looked like a leash and collar. until you looked see whats in the collar. i said''let me demonstrate...''using a melon. i placed the collar on it and yanked the leash. the melon was sliced straight through.
 
Aww,I coulda done what that drug did.,I pouted mentally,in reality a small smile settling on my face. "Yay,pain!",I cheered at the collar innocently,throwing my hands in the air like a child would celebrate candy,"Can I put the leash on the doggy?".
 
(well that's awful convenient....)


Clara backed up until she was against the wall and closed her eyes. She took a deep breath and then focused all her energy on her powers. Then she extended her arms and grimaced as she tried to call shadows around her. As soon as the shadows reached her fingertips a splitting pain consumed her mind and she fell to her hands and knees. She began to pant and felt a bead of sweat roll down her cheek. "Dammit" She cursed under her breath.
 
"Want me to shrink it so you can do his fingers and toes first? Oooh,and his ears! Also,I think I have an eyeball scoop somewhere here...",I said thoughtfully,pulling my ever-handy bag from thin air and searching through it. I glanced at Clara with worry but didn't intervene. She needed to do it alone.
 
i said''wanna start with his ears or his hands?''excited. chase said''IM SORRY IM SORRY!" I said''sorry doesn't cut it with me sugar im the best assassin there is''smirking.
 
She glanced up at the horrific scene in front of her and shouted. "Why don't you try to reason with him?" Clara grimaced as the pain shot down her back and into her core. She clenched her fists on the grand and slammed a fist into the ground. "Ah..." she grunted and began to push herself onto her feet.
 
(Next post is number 1234.) I set the eyeball scoop aside,clapping excitedly and exclaiming,"Oooh,his ears! I hear there are some complex potions that need them as ingrediants.". I made a copy of her collar-leash thing and shrunk them both. "One at a time,to let him focus on both of them seperately,ot both at once to give him all the pain at the same time?",I asked,positioning myself by his left ear. Then Clara shouted at us,and I looked up at him. I frowned in confusion and asked,"Did we...hear his side of the story?".
 
chase said''just listen to me ok!'' i said''you have 10 minutes.''glaring. he said''i was sent here to kill your friends but i didn't count on meeting you ik we can get annoying but cmon love is like that! i didn't want to kill them but i have to my brother's life is at stake!'' i said''his name?'' chase said''jordan..'' i said''oh jordan?''looking at my gloved nails.''sorry to break this to ya but he's dead sugar... he died a year ago here.. he wanted you to have this..''holding up a bracelet.
 
Clara sighed in relief and got back on her feet. She walked closer and tried to take some deep breaths to clear the pain from her head. "Violence isn't the answer. It doesn't have to be at least." She said calmly and put a hand on Jason's shoulder. She turned hi so he would look at her. She looked into his eyes and tried to locate the pain or anger or delusion that was causing him to act so unreasonable... so unlike himself.
 
i gave chase the bracelet and said''next.'' he said''they said if i dont do it i will die from he deadly stuff they already injected into me...''i said''well you dont have to worry bout that i have the cures to the deadliest poisons known to man....''
 
How convenient.,I thought dryly,looking into Clara's eyes. I realized my own must be cold as ice. I flicked my gaze to Chase,feeling my personality...change. I quickly looked back at Clara,scared at the thoughts New Me was thinking. Pain...suffering...dismemberment...,a little voice whispered in my ear.
 
Clara frowned and put her warm hand gently on Jason's cold cheek for a moment and sighed. "What's happened to you?" She asked quietly. Her eyes lingered for a moment longer before she stepped away and went to the window. She no longer wanted to see or hear the house. She walked to the window and looks out at the red surface. She began to sing quietly in a futile attempt to escape the house for at least a moment. She wondered if she was going crazy.
 
I looked down at the floor,tears pricking at my eyes. I wasn't the person that trained back at Headquarters,the person that defended Nichole from wild nekos. I wasn't the person that closed down the Station,that brought us to Mars. I was someone...different. I was violent,and bloodthirsty,and uncaring about life. No...not life...Chase's life. "I don't know.",I whispered,falling to my knees and looking up at the sky I knew was just past the ceiling.
 
i said''just tell me what the stuff was....'' he said''um i think it was some kind or neurotoxin?'' i said''ok...''bringing out a bowl and some herbs and other stuff. i mixed them together and said''drink this....'' pouring it down his throat.
 
Clara put her head against the cool window and let her tears flow. She brought her hands to her head and dug her fingers into her head, trying to get a grip. She needed support. She needed somebody to tell her it would be okay. Somebody that would put their arms around her and let her cry. She was screaming inside and refused to let the others see her falling apart. She couldn't use her powers, and that was all she knew. Now she couldn't access them and she felt useless. Her friends were all changing and their souls were darkening and their minds were twisting and Clara couldn't take it. "Is this power?" She spun and yelled.


"Is this what power does? Does it corrupt and twist and change us so much that there is no way to stop it? Doe it make our fall into darkness inevitable?" She was so confused and needed somebody to keep her afloat. But how could her friends help her if they were all sinking as well?
 
i shook my head it was pounding.''oh no...''trembling. my eyes darkened and i looked up a cruel smile on my face. ''who wants to play the penalty game?'' chase said''what?''
 
I said nothing,because I honestly didn't know. Then I did speak. "I don't know. But someone has to. Or something. Maybe.",I said quietly.
 
i slapped myself and threw down my knife. ''wth is wrong with me?!'' my assassin side faded as my good memories flowed into my mind. i gasped falling too my knees.''what have i done?''crying.
 
Clara looked down at Jason and walked next to him. She sat on the floor near him and then lay down. She closed her eyes and pushed her palms into her eyelids. "I hate this. There is so much hate." She whispered to herself mostly. Her brown hair pooled around her head and her pale skin seemed too bright. When she let her hands fall to her sides her green eyes looked confused and tired, but there was still a bit of the normal Clara just beneath the surface.


"This is my fault." she says monotonously, staring blankly at the ceiling.
 
"No. It's not your fault. It's not my fault,it's not Chase's fault,it's not Tarea's or Nichole's or even Madax's. It's these stupid Anites' fault. They gave us these powers,and these powers are destroying us even as they empower us.",I stated bitterly,staring at my hands with hate now,"They give us power over ourselves,power over others,and even the power to bend time and space,the very forces of nature to our will.".
 
i said''no it isnt clara...''my ears dropping as i rubbed away my tears. chase said''hello can i get down?'' i said''SHUTUP AND WAIT!"crying all over again. his ears drooped.
 
Clara curled up into a ball and looked at Jason sadly. "What is the point of living if we are just to be corrupted and hateful. Life should be full of love and oppritunity (sp) and choice... and we have none of those." Clara said in a lonely and distant voice.
