IANTHEN

When I come to and find myself strapped to an operating table, pulses of that dark energy crawling along the surface of my skin and weakening me, I’m not even surprised. After all, I know who the fuck I’m dealing with. Lifting my head, I try to look behind me. “You’ve always been a sick, sadistic bastard.”

Multiple beings move above us. Mortals. Of no consequence for now. My attention is on that dick.

He laughs that smooth, conceited laugh, his heavy boots slamming into the floor. “Only with you, baby. Only with you.”

I let my head drop back onto the table. The dark metallic ceiling is dissected by massive, recessed LED lights. Right above me? Medical lamps. “If only I were so lucky, huh?” Red, beige, and black enters my peripheral.

No need to look at him. I know who he is. His energy signature is one I never forgot.

He yanks what seems to be one of those medical stools closer to me and plops down. “Do you have any idea what it’s been like hiding from your ass this whole time?”

A huge smile tugs on my cheeks. My eyes remain fixed on the ceiling. I’ll look at him when I’m good and ready. “Yeah, I know. I’m good like that.”

He scoffs. “Then why did I capture you?” Is that a playful note in his tone?

A mindfuck, this one. Always has been. And not just because of his powers of Fear; powers I can still sense bound inside him.

When’s the last time I saw him face-to-face? Eons. Maybe five or six millennia. Before that, I hadn’t seen him or his brother since the beginning of the Dixieme Eductu. Yet that easy camaraderie we always had is still there, reminding me of my seething hatred.

We were friends.

Then, when the moment came to pick sides, they chose the Aviraji. He and his brother chose to war alongside our enemies, becoming monsters by choice.

“Not going to answer the question? You know, I might’ve always been a sick, sadistic bastard, but you’ve always been such a petulant bitch.”

I finally stare at him out of the corner of my eye, letting him see how bored I am. “You can pump me full of that dark shit all you want, but I’m getting out of here. You know it.” Lifting my head, I smirk at him. “Know why? Because that motherfucker you hate for no good reason is still the king of it all. And he’s on our side.” Not to mention the Watcher is as well.

Lisrn’s lips, the same color as his beige skin, curl with a bitter smirk. “For no good reason, he says. Oh, and you forget. That daughter he adores so blindly? She in turn adores her mother. And guess who’s side her mother is on?”

He’s fucking right about that. Gods damn it. Most of the time it feels like we’re all just pawns trapped in a galactic custody battle. Nothing but collateral to those two going at it.
