Killer

Someone Else

I wrote the beginning, then came back to mention that I don't really like it :,D

Chezden forgave that whole thing too quickly, I guess--

The whole thing could be better but eh--

I just don't l a w k it
~~~~~~~~~~~~<>~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Chezden struggled to get out of the psycho's grip, clawing at his hands, the short breath he had cut off. He could feel himself getting weaker as time went on, his body slowing down its attempts to escape. Before he went unconscious, his throat was finally released, allowing him to take in gulps of air as he slid down the wall behind him.

Piers had finally forced Phantom to stop having control over his body, stepping back a little.

You're no fun~

That annoying voice rang in his mind, but he ignored it as he quickly kneeled down in front of his friend.

"Oh my god, Chezden, I am so sorry!" Piers whimpered quickly, tears welling up in his eyes from guilt. "H-he just took over, I couldn't control him!"

He hugged his Australian friend, tears rolling down his cheeks. After recovering, Chezden hugged back.

". . .It's fine. . ." Chezden mumbled.

"No, it's not!" Piers pulled back from the hug, "I-I could have killed you!"

". . .But it wasn't really you, was it. . ?" Chezden glanced to him, rubbing his neck. "It was. . .him. . ."

Yeah! Me! Hahaha~

Piers ignored Phantom again, nodding in response.

"Yeah. . .but it would still be by my own hands. . ." Piers stated, glancing to the floor and rubbing his eyes. There was then a silence, minus the soft sound of an owl hooting and trees rustling.

After some more silence, Chezden stood up, causing Piers to glance up and follow.

"Let's go. . .the other two are probably worried. . ." Chezden said, Piers nodding. The two walked out of the small shed and back to where their car was, and where Conrad and Aisha were.

~~~~~~~~~~~~<>~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Another few days of strange behaviour passed. It wasn't Phantom taking over more often, it was almost a lack of him in general. Chezden was also way more cautious around Piers, knowing that a lack of Phantom would lead to a sudden and dangerous visit from him.

However, this day was different.

Piers was snacking on some candy in the living room, him being alone with his brother, who was in his room, as the others left. Aisha was looking for a new notebook to write in, Chezden was just doing what he liked to do from time to time; take a walk around the town for a bit, and Savannah and Max were probably on a date.

Conrad was probably hiding in his room.

Phantom's voice suddenly sounded in Piers' head.

I'm getting bored~ Hm~ I'm gonna try somethin' new!

Before Piers could try and ask what Phantom meant, he felt a strange light-headed feeling, before it quickly left. He barely had any time to figure out what just happened, when he heard someone speak.

"What. Are you doing here."
