As we searched the school for my friends and teachers, as we were about to open the door to the class I asked my sister to wait outside the class. What I found was terrifying. The bodies of the dead students and teachers lined the classroom. The sight of my peers drenched in blood as their own blood refused to stay within their own bodies. It was absolutely terrifying. It was gut wrenching. I could barely keep myself from throwing up at just the sight of it.
"Don't come in here. Don't even think about it. You… you want to trust me on this…," Drago said
"What do you mean? I'm coming-," said Penny
"NO," Drago shouted
After telling her to not come into the class I closed the door and locked it. As I closed my eyes I couldn't think of anything but of how weak I truly am. I was supposed to protect them…. I was supposed to be the one who won… I was supposed to be the one who died if…. If it came down to it. I can't do anything. I'm… I'm…. useless. I can't do anything but sit down and obey like a dog. This is my fault… They didn't have to die… If only I did things differently may-maybe they would still be here… Maybe-
"Stop… This isn't your fault. This is his fault… You did everything perfectly you were even able to deflect his attacks he is stronger than you realized. You may not like it but he is on a whole other plane of existence when it comes to skill and power. You can match him if you master the techniques your mom has taught and will teach you after she gets here. Trust me and I will help you gain this power and even lend you my strength when and only when you need it. When I do… know that if I give you too much I will take control of your body and you won't get it back until I say so got it…," Cthulu
"Fine… But why didn't you give me your power when I was fighting," asked Drago
"You didn't need it. Your life wasn't in danger and neither was your sisters, your teachers or your teachers. So… It was not necessary. I want you to remember that you are talking to a goddess and I mean in the literal sense. Try and wrap that around your head first. Then open your eyes and grab your things from your desk and that knife in the teacher's desk. You are gonna need it for what's to come. You may not know how to fight with it now but your mother will teach you. It is in the first drawer on the right. If it is locked…. Break it. Got it," said Cthulu
"Fine… but you need to realize that you are in my body so show me some respect," Said Drago
"You've got some ball kid… but don't mistake that I can't make your life a living hell… Trust me kid you don't know the first thing about what I can do even while I am inside your body. Also it is not that simple… If I was just in your body I would have already taken over it. We are soul-linked. Which means our very souls are connected now. In my situation… I am not only soul linked to you but I am also sealed within your body. I am using this seal to make sure you don't die and I don't take your body from you. Once you are powerful enough you will be able to let me out of your body and I will have mine back. Until then I will be able to take your body from you at anytime and you can't do a damn thing about it. So don't test me," warned Cthulu
"You think I am so stupid that I would fall for the fact that you can take over my body… That's a complete underestimate of my knowledge and will. You will never be able to take over my bo-
As I was saying that to Cthulu I feel a surge of force all over my body and try my hardest to fight whatever this was off. I didn't last very long before another surge went through my body and as this happens I feel myself start to go unconscious. A few seconds later I start to feel constricted like I am being forced to kneel and bow my head.
"What was that about me not being able to do as I please with your body," said Cthulu
"What the… How are you doing this," asked Drago
"I told you that I could take over your body. I also told you that if I do you won't get it back until I say so… correct," said Cthulu
"Y-Yeah you did...Just when I thought that things couldn't get any worse I go and get my body taken. D-Did my body change in any way," asked Drago
"Well you are a male kid… correct. If we find a mirror, you can see what I look like. Honestly I don't look too far off from how I normally look kid. I think I might keep your body for longer than I thought. Maybe until I can have a conversation with your mother again. Now where were we," said Cthulu
"What do you mean until you can have a conversation with mom again," asked Drago
"You will see when the time comes for now I need you to be quiet," said Cthulu
She then walked over to my desk and grabbed my backpack and threw it over her shoulder and headed to the desk and grabbed the knife and it was right where she said it was. I was so confused on how she knew that and then it hit me. She is using my body and I was able to… see faster or maybe into the future so I knew what was going to happen and when to react. Maybe that is why she knew where it was or maybe she can sense where weapons are or something. I don't know for sure but who-er whatever she is I can't really get a lock on just what makes her so powerful. I mean there is no way she is an actual goddess. I mean if she is what is she the goddess of. Also… why did she seem so adamant about killing dad because of what he's done to me and cared for me so much and then completely flipped the script and became so strict and stuff. I have so many questions about what is going on and not enough answers. I thought it would be cool and make life easier getting powers but, so far all it has done is get people killed all around me.
"Can you go make sure my sister is ok? While also not letting he see what is in this room," Drago asked
"Sure, but I don't see why you wouldn't let her see it. She is your older sister if you can handle this then she should be able to as well but… see as she is your sister I can make an exception. Did you tell her and your friends about me," asked Cthulu
"Thank you… and no I didn't. Honestly I didn't think I would need to. I thought you were bluffing to make yourself seem all powerful. By the way you mentioned that you were a goddess a couple of times," said Drago
"Yes, I did. What of it? If you are going to ask a woman a question it is better to just ask it instead of trying to build up to it. Well, at least for me," replied Cthulu
"Ok then… What are you the goddess of? I have so many questions and not enough answers. I am still trying to wrap my head around the fact that you even exist and that we're soul linked or whatever," asked Drago
"I am the goddess of the demon realm and lust. You may have questions but they will be answered with time… For now they will have to wait until we meet up with your mom. You can hear and see everything I see correct," answered Cthulu
"Yeah I can. I think my sister might think your crazy though. You've been answering me outloud this entire time. Either way she should accept your help in getting all of us who survived out of here," said Drago
"I have… haven't I. Well let's get a move one… Penny is your name right," asked Cthulu
"Y-Yes… who are you and where is Drago," said Penny
"Drago is fine if that's what you're wondering. He's resting at the moment and I am making sure that you two and everyone else who survived gets out of here alive. Now as per his wishes… I need you to turn away from the door and cover your eyes," said Cthulu
"O-ok… let me hear him before you come out," Penny said
After she said that Cthulu cleared her throat and the weirdest thing happened. She perfectly mimicked my voice. I can only do a couple of impressions pretty well but she was on a whole other level. It was like it was nothing to her.
"Penny, it's fine let her help you and everyone else. I am gonna try to stay hidden so that if there is anyone else who wants to sneak up on us I can deal with them," said Cthulu
"Ok Drago, be careful ok," said Penny
"Will do… So will you turn around now," said Cthulu
"Sure," said Penny
Without a second thought about the entire situation Penny turned around and covered her eyes as Cthulu came out of the classroom.
"Is Drago really ok…. He sounded like he was in pain in there," asked Penny
"He'll be fine. He's just drained. He just went through a fight like that and lost his girlfriend. If I were him I would feel the same. That's without what he goes through with your father," said Cthulu
"Wha-what do you mean what he goes through with dad," asked Penny
"You didn't know," asked Cthulu
"Know what," asked Penny
I knew I had to say something because everything that happened to me was about to be told to the same person I am meant to make feel safe.
"Don't tell her please," asked Drago
"She deserves to know. She and the rest of your family," replied
"No she doesn't the only one who needs to know is me and mom," said Drago
"You say that but does she know. I don't think she does… does she," asked Cthulu
"No… she doesn't but please… I'm begging you… please don't tell him," pleaded Drago
"Fine I won't… yet. Once we get your people and head home… you will tell your family what he has done to you but if you don't I will tell them myself. Got it," said Cthulu
"Fine," said Drago
"What was that," asked Cthulu
"Got it," said Drago
"Good," replied Cthulu
"What does dad do to Drago," asked Penny
"Drago will tell you himself once we get home ok,"
After searching the rest of the classrooms we came upon my friends surrounding Ruby to protect her. Once they saw Penny and Cthulu walking down the hallway they told Penny to run and to get away from Cthulu. Which I thought was understandable seeing as she is a tall woman with red eyes and long silver hair…. That they have never seen in their life. Its a shame that Cthulu didn't feel the same… she was ready to smite them right then and there. Then she remembered that these are my friends and reluctantly let them off the hook.
"Kids… you can calm down. I am here to help all the survivors of what occured here escape and get back home or to Drago's house. Do you know where the teachers are? Specifically the quiet one. Her name's…. Ms. Kell I believe. I also need to find Ms. Dayton and Finn," asked Cthulu
"How do we know we can trust you," asked Jacqueline
"Because Drago and his mom asked me to come and get you guys. Drago is staying hidden so he can try and take down anyone who we might run into quickly. He wants to make sure that everyone is safe," said Cthulu
"Fine… Ms. Kells she is in room 405. Ms. Finn is in the classroom down the hall and Ms Dayton is at the front office I think," said Jack
"Why did you tell her Jack," yelled Jacqueline
"She doesn't seem like she is lying. Plus Drago always tries to protect us, even from the stupidest things. You know that. Drago hasn't ever been wrong when it comes to things like that so I think we should trust her," explained Jack
"Thanks, kid… who do you guys think we should go get first? Ms. Kells, Dayton or Ms. Finn," asked Cthulu
