Chereads / A Glitching of Jeremiah / Chapter 14 - whatever you’re thinking

Chapter 14 - whatever you’re thinking

Jeremiah peeks his head around the corner to hear the conversation comadust is having with Dr. Weiss. "What are they talking about? Why is Dr. Weiss even here? We're in 1939 and he still looks the same?" These are all rational thoughts going through Jeremiah's head at the moment.

"Hugo? What are you doing actually showing up here? It's really late. You should leave." Dr. Weiss says.

"No I wanna know." Says Comadust in persistence.

"Hmm, what do you wanna know?" Asks Dr. Weiss.

"I wanna know why you haven't replied back to me." Comadust says.

"I told you I would meet you here but you're here and you need to leave, I warned you then to only come if it's an emergency otherwise don't show up." Dr. Weiss replied back.

"I'll leave but just tell me what is going on? I need you not to do this." Said Comadust.

"Do what? What have I done? I can't go back anyway. I won't be coming home." Dr. Weiss said.

"Why? You can't leave my sister. You're doing this to the family for what?" Says Comadust in anger.

"I really can't tell you and no matter what you should really just leave. You never know what someone is going through and it is best for everyone if I don't come back. So just go." Dr. Weiss replied in frustration.

"No! I already said I'm not going and I told my sister I would send you back." Comadust says.

"How do you plan to do that?" Mocked Dr. Weiss.

"Really don't do this, it's not what you want." Threatens Comadust.

"You're threatening me? You always threaten when you have no power. I have more power than you. The minuscule power you hold is like a candle and it's all gone." Explain Dr. Weiss.

"It's interesting you find me but when I looked for you, you were no where around. I sent my men out in every surrounding city but you were no where. How did you do that? Surely you couldn't be so far away, right?" Asks Comadust.

"Next time, mind you're business, don't come looking for me. You should stay out of things you don't understand." Explains Dr. Weiss, with a good point.

"Why? what's the deal?" Says Comadust in ignorance.

"Who knows I could come in handy. Maybe I'm better away from your sister then I would be if I'd gone home. There is a such thing as trouble." Dr. Weiss justified.

"Sure I won't pester you about it anymore. I'll just tell my sister I couldn't bring you back. Then what a pity that would be. Maybe she'd be heartbroken, but then that would mean….." taunts Comadust.

"What? What would that mean?" Says Dr. Weiss humorously.

"That would mean you are dead to our family. Everyone would be out for your head. The first to have your head on a stick gets the elders praises." Explains Comadust.

"There was once a time when I realized the influence you had over the people in the town and I would give in to your every word but things have changed." Dr. Weiss explains.

"How so? What would make things change?" Hugo said with one eyebrow tilted. "You know something I don't?" Questions Comadust.

"Hugo, I gave you more than a chance to leave here. You still haven't left and you can't say I didn't look out for you. You were like a brother to me." Dr. Weiss said with a sigh.

"As we're you, then you hurt my family, so of course I'd return that favor." Comadust Justified.

"It's not what happened and like I've said, it's certainly best if I stay away from home. I just simply cannot return." Says Dr. Weiss in annoyance.

"Ok, I felt like you were going to say that."

Just as Comadust uttered those words, he reached in a pocket behind his back to pull out a small blade. He very suddenly swings at Dr. Weiss multiple times. Dr. Weiss however stays calm and dodges out of the way looking comadust in the eyes as Comadust is attacking.

Dr. Weiss then rapidly places his hand on the back of comadusts neck having control of his head. He then pushes comadust head into a futuristic tablet screen.

"What is that device Dr. Weiss has in his hand? It's looks like a computer but only the screen of the computer." Jeremiah thinks to himself as he is hidden and watching the scene play out from a distance.

Dr. Weiss holds Comadusts head in the screen for a few seconds and then releases. When comadust comes out of the screen, he is in an extreme fear or an extreme shock. The look on his face is rather dead like.

"Hugo, I told you to leave. I told you to leave many many times but you didn't hear. When I came to realize your ignorance would not evade you and even rationally explained that I had your best interest in mind, you still didn't hear. Now you understand me. You know what I'm going through. We are on the same page." Dr. Weiss sympathizes with Comadust.

Comadust didn't speak after that. Eventually he found a way to shake the trauma, but it'll never be known what he seen.

Comadust very quickly got up and ran away.

"It's that traumatizing? It could make a grown man run away like a little girl?" Jeremiah thought to himself about how serious whatever is in the screen could be.

As one comadust runs off another one appears.

"We did go back in time, so there are two comadusts. So this Comadust must be the one who came back with me." Jeremiah explains to himself. "But if he does something stupid…"

Comadust approaches Dr. Weiss. This time he has a gun behind his back.

"Yep I already called it, he does something stupid." Jeremiah thinks to himself with no surprise.

"What? What do you want?" Nonchalantly asks Dr. Weiss.

"You're not surprised to see me even though you just watched me walk off?" Says Comadust.

"Walk? That was a woman's run." Dr. Weiss joked.

"No! Don't laugh! You don't get to laugh." Says Comadust in anger and extreme hate.

"Ok fine, I won't laugh, but I will say, whatever you think you're about to do, don't do it." Warns Dr. Weiss.

"That's not gonna stop me." Says Comadust with nothing but killing Dr. Weiss in mind.

"What it is that's behind your back." Dr. Weiss says.

"What?" Says Comadust too busy thinking and then understands what he means.

"The gun behind your back is man made. It's a machine and it won't work against me, so don't do it." Say Dr. Weiss who already knows he controls all forms of technology, so the power of any technological device couldn't be used against him.

"Who said I have anything behind my back?" Comadust says while playing dumb.

Dr. Weiss walks over to comadust enough to see behind his back. Comadust tries to quickly use the gun and shoots Dr. Weiss in the head at point blank range, but the gun changes in form as Dr. Weiss puts his bare hand over the tip of the gun. Grabbing it out of Comadusts hands and shooting Comadust in the knee. Comadust drastically falls to the ground and is dragged away by Dr. Weiss who has him by the ankle.

"You're going back into your prison." Dr. Weiss says to Comadusts in an annoyed voice.

Comadust looks Jeremiah directly in the eye as he is being pulled away. The look on Comadusts face is very frantic.

"Jeremiah!" Comadust looks up and screams for Jeremiah to help him as he is being pulled away.

"Hmm?" Dr. Weiss says as he looks in the direction of where Jeremiah would be, but no one is there.
