-Max-
“…ax….Max…” I heard in the distance. It sounded like Dante but I wasn’t to sure. “Max…up...come one man…wake up.” I didn’t want to wake up I just wanted to sleep. But then again it didn’t make since as to why I was hearing Dante. I opened my eyes slowly and everything was really blurry. Dante was standing over top of me.
“Hey Dante…” My voice was scratchy like I haven’t talked to anyone in a week. “How long have I been out?” I asked him not moving from my spot.
“You’ve been out since they took us onto the plane is my guess.” He answered.
“When did we get here?” I looked at him as he sat down on another bed across from the one that I was laying in.
“About three days ago.” He answered simply.
I shot up off the pillow, “Three days!! Ugh.” I groaned and clutched onto my shoulder in pain.
“Holy frick Max.” Dante said and I looked at him confused.
“What?” I asked.
“You’re rip.” Was all he said I looked down and realized I wasn’t wearing my jumpsuit either. I was just in the shorts that were underneath the jumpsuit. The bandage went around my waist as well. “You never told me you had a f*cking four pack.” He commented.
“Oh yea um, my family has a weight room in our house and I get bored after I finish my homework so I work out.” I laughed sheepishly.
“That’s cheating man, how am I supposed to compete with a guy like you? I’m nothing but Skin and bones.” He stated.
I laughed a little, “I think you’re doing just fine, who knows maybe being here you’ll be able to gain a couple of pounds of muscle.”
“That’s true…” Dante said looking up at the ceiling.
I slid my fingers down my back to where the openings for my wings were. They were covered with the bandage so I couldn’t tell if they were open or closed. Usually after three days they would still be open but from what’s been happening to me lately I’m not to sure anymore. ‘What’s going on with me?’ I thought looking at the bed. I knew that they finally took the knee extensions off my legs that’s’ probably how I was able to sleep.
“While you were sleeping I had no one to talk to.” Dante huffed, “They put some sort of strange thing up on our walls so I can’t search for Lucas and pops minds to figured out where they are in the building, and then they injected some strange liquid into me too.”
I laughed lightly at the expressions that he was making. They were an expression that I could see a younger sibling make if they were mad. “I’m sorry Dante, The dream I had was really weird though.” I commented.
“What did you dream about?” He asked.
“Well at first I was dreaming about my life for some strange reason, then…it went to where I was in darkness…I couldn’t find anything or any one then everything changed, there was blood all round, splattered against the walls and the floor. I didn’t know what was going on till I saw black feathers scattered along the ground, I looked up from the ground and I saw myself covered in blood. I didn’t know if it was mine or if it was someone else, but for some reason I looked like I was enjoying myself. There were people that I’ve never met before scattered around the ground dead.” I clutched my head and brought my knees up to my chest. “I didn’t know what to do I couldn’t move from my spot as I saw myself walk over to me and make a feather appear out of no where. He called me by my name. “Come on Max don’t you want to play with me?” He asked me and the feather was razor sharp as he slid it across my cheek. “Why are you so afraid Max? Why are you so afraid of your self.” That’s all he said to me then I heard you yelling my name and everything went back to black and I woke up.” I explained to him.

And I'll end it there. And Max and Dante are roommates because they ran out of rooms to put them all. I hope that's alright.
