"Are you afraid that I will take over your body?"
His soft voice continued to ring inside of my head.
"Don't worry.
Clank. Clank. Clank.
I heard a familiar rattling sound.
"Even if I wanted to take over your body, with these chains binding me, there's no way for me to do that."
Clank!
Pulling his arm, the rattling stopped and a loud metallic ring echoed through the air.
"As you can see, no matter what I do, I will always be bound by the chains. I can't take over your body even if I wanted to..."
I wanted to deny his words, but I knew.
I knew that he was telling the truth.
I couldn't explain it. But, I could tell that he wasn't lying about this.
Was it because he was me? ...or was this another mind trick? I no longer could tell.
"You can choose to not believe me, but you don't have time."
I gazed at the projection.
