I stood there for a moment is silence. Finally I punched him in the stomach using all my strength. Then I started running to the door.
Then I froze. I couldn't move or do anything. A green glow hovered around my body as if I was it's life source. Maybe I was. "What's happening?!" I yelled. "You haven't learned to control your power." Malcolm said as he grabbed my shoulders.
He was still gentle with me even after I punched him.
"You have to relax. If you're scared it will burn you."
He explained. "Why should I trust you." "You don't need to trust me, you just need to believe you are safe. Just breathe." He ran his hands down my arms. "Doesn't it burn you?" I said.
"Yes. It burns like fire. But I can help you." He tried to calm me down but I was too scared. It was painful. " Why does it have to burn?" I asked. "It is you're defense mechanism.
That's how you're body will react in order to protect you." He bent down to whisper in my ear. "But all it does is cause more pain." I tried to breathe calmly. Maybe he was right. I couldn't tell if he actually cared about me or if he just wanted to use me for his work. "Did you do this to me?" I asked. " You're more then normal, Kai. You deserve to have more power. So, I gave it to you."
"Why?! Why would you do this to me?!" I started to cool down a little but then it started to burn again. He moved in front of me and looked into my eyes. They we're fully green again.
"Kai, listen to me.. You are safe I would never hurt you.. please just breathe." He said in a calm voice. But I could sense some worry behind it. Then he hugged me tight. Like if he let go I would die.
No matter how much it burned him, he hugged me. "You have to calm down, Kai." But I was still burning hot. Then he looked into my eyes. He cupped my face once again.. And for a moment we just stayed in silence.
Like we had some kind of special connection. But then I thought that he is probably just gonna use me. He would probably use me for some kind of experiment or something.
Then I burned so much more. Out of nowhere, he kissed me. He wrapped his arms around. It felt so passionate, so alive. It was such a soft kiss. I had only one boyfriend in the past, but he never kissed me like that before. I started to cool down. There was now white hovering around.
It flowed so brightly. There were specks in it too. They we're beautiful. I closed my eyes as I felt it around me. It felt so soft and a little warm. I felt safe as he continued to kiss me. He smelt so good, like apple and cinnamon. In that moment I knew he felt the light too.
Then he let go and stepped back as he watched the light disappear. " How did you know that would work?" I asked. "I didn't.." He said.
Hours had past and we hardly spoke to each other.
He took some DNA samples and run some tests. But that's about it. I had so many questions but I didn't ask any of them. Then he came into the room with a needle.
"What's that for?" I asked. "It's to help you control your abilities." "Okay, Um have you ever done these things to someone else before?" "Like what things?" He said as he was preparing the needle. "Like give people baths while there sleeping or give them powers."
"No I haven't. Although once in the past I experimented on my pet hamster." He stuck the needle in my arm. It hurt a little but I didn't mind it. "So what happened to the hamster?" I asked. "He exploded." "OH MY GOSH!! What?! That's horrible." "I know the blood left a stain in my new shirt. It took me 3 days the clean it out." He exclaimed. "But don't you care that he died?"
"Not really. He was a hamster, I just got a knew one." He said. "You're a sick man!" I tried to leave the room, but right as I touched the door, he grabbed my wrist.
He pulled me closer to him as I tried to escape his grip. "Where do you think you're going?" He asked. "Away from you."
"You're body is mine now, you can't leave without my permission." He gave me a cold stare and looked at my lips. "Did you enjoy our kiss, Kai?"
