Part 2 to 'I want your eyes.'
Requested by: Kistune39
Lucas' POV
—————————
I walked down to where the others were. When I came down the stairs I noticed that everyone went quite. I blinked. They're usually so loud. What could cause them to be silent? "Uh, hey?" I greeted, unsure of myself. Delta came up behind me, sighing. "Now, now. No need to be so tense. Just relax everyone." He said. I turned to him. Does he know why everyone is acting weird? Well, Brandon Isn't acting strange, he's just asleep. But these two...weird. I wonder if something strange happened.
I blinked, looking around. What happened? The last thing I remember is coming here and closing my eyes. Now I'm surrounded by nothing but blood...I feel tired. I guess I'll just sleep here...
I hummed, listening to them speak as we walked. Them seemed worried when I told them what happened. They didn't question it though. I'm glad considering I have no idea what happened. I did I defeat all of those demons? I don't have a weapon or knowledge in fighting. I hummed. So strange, that's the second time I've blacked out.
I looked around. It was night time. We had set up camp. Of course there weren't enough tents for all of us so I was taking first watch. The forest is quite. That's good. Hopefully there won't be any trouble tonight. I hum, leaning against a tree. I hope I remember things soon...I don't like being in the dark. Also...why is everyone so suspicious of me? I'm harmless. Is it because I'm part snake? I wouldn't be surprised if that was part of it. But something doesn't feel right. I feel...odd. Like something inside of me has its own goals...I can't describe it. It's probably just my imagination. Surely that's it.
Delta's POV
——————————
I blink, I can't sleep. I sigh, raising up. I peek outside my tent. I spot Lucas lsying against a tree with his eyes closed. Isn't he meant of be watching. I groan, getting up. Guess I should take watch then. I go over to the boy. I go to pick him up but he shifts. I wait, when he doesn't move I continue.
I hold him in my arms, bringing him over to my tent. Might as well let him sleep somewhere more comfortable. I was almost at the tent when suddenly...I was on the ground, Lucas was above me. I gasped, shocked and confused. What just happened. I looked up at the boy. He looked strange...his eyes mostly. They seemed...how do I put it? Dull. I went to get up but instead was held to the ground my his foot. "Lucas, what the hell are you doing?" I ask the boy, getting frustrated but also worried. He doesn't seem like the kind of guy to just attack a comrade out of no where. He didn't respond. I sighed. Guess I have to fight back. It's my only option.
I take in a deep breath, holding him to the ground. He's strong. Considering he uses no magic or weapon it was a hassle to get to this point. I'm surprised everyone has managed to sleep through all the noise we've made. Brandon is understandable but the other two...oh well. Lucas was struggling against me when suddenly his eyes fell shut and his body went limp. He fell unconscious. Why though? I sigh, getting off him.
The sun was up. Ritchie and David has woken up a couple of hours ago. I filled them in on what happened. Ritchie informed me that my description almost matched what had happened to him expect last time Lucas spoke. I had a feeling that would be the case. It's possible Lucas is being possessed...but surely I would be able to sense something if that was the case. Whatever it is, it's becoming a real problem, a sin attacking another sin could result in a not so good situation. I don't want to be forced to have to kill this boy.
He groaned, opening his eye. I prepared myself in case he attacked again. His eyes seemed normal. He looked around. "Delta? Why am I in a tent?" He questioned. I hummed. "Well, you fell asleep outside and I couldn't sleep myself so I decided to take watch myself. I felt bad leaving you outside to sleep so I brought you to my tent since I wasn't using it." I explained, leaving out the detail of the fight. I'm not sure if I should mention it. I'm still unsure of why he did that. There's also what he did or rather tried to do to Ritchie. I should gather more information before I act. Yeah...that seems like the best course of action.
