《The Games That Bind Us》Chapter 12 - The Dark Room Part 1
Advertisement
I did not realise I woke up, the room I was in was just a void. darkness all around me, I hear no sounds, I see no name tags, I cant feel anything and no other sense is working...
*Bang*
even my sense of balance is gone it seems. the only reason I knew that was I lost HP and the thud noise. however apart from that I am alone.
[-10 health, health regeneration has been frozen in and out of combat]
that has to be unfair. what even hit me?
[-10 health per minuet effect has been implemented, have a nice day :D]
I will kick the ass of whoever wrote that message box. and then I will proceed to...
[-10 health]
wow my sense of time is horrible at the moment, ok I have to think, all senses are gone and I am slowly going to die.I could think of worse ways to go.
[Aura: Aura Of A Dead Man]
plan B, think of a way to survive this mess before I am killed.
[Aura: Default]
ok, so think John THINK!!! not something I am good at, BRAIN!!!
"Yes?" said my brain.
THINK FOR ONCE!!!
"ok, activate Dragon Slayer Aura, lets just say your ability only shows the basic information of an ability and what you know about it, so maybe you can find something out from there. or just wait for about 5 more seconds" my Brain said.
ok... so what am I waiting for? I asked thin air.
[from constant lack of any sense you have developed common sense: this allows you to think about things in more detail and use a sense that is not as common as the name will have you believe]
That is just insulting. Oh my god I was an idiot.
I start focusing on my self, inside my own body, for a sense that I could not see before, and when that failed horrible I made an eye out of Mana and saw things like normal, wow cant believe that was not plan A. with this I look around and see... nothing, square one... wait nope not square one.
[Mana Eyes Projection Has Been Created: Mana Eyes Allows you to see the flow of Mana without even needing eyes, as you can make more. 50 Mana per eye. 5 points per 60 seconds. you can see through these eyes and they work like normal eyes do, except they can float and move through the air unlike your normal eyes]
something tells me that the boxes changed, Not that I mind however... It is distracting, oh well, I started to spread a hundred energy eyes in all directions and I could see through all of them, I could understand and comprehend all of the eyes, I felt the knowledge flow into me... still only able to see nothing I changed my plan.

I flow energy into my normal eyes instead of just making projections of eyes.
[Mana Eyes has been created: you can now see with your eyes more clearly, in greater detail and your eyes become more powerful making time appear to slow down, active 5 Mana per second, eyes are more in tune with Mana so all Mana attacks that involve the eyes will be more destructive by 1000%, passive]
OP... wait I don't have any eye attacks, DAMN IT, [common sense in 5......4......3......2....1] or I could just use Mana and develop one now. gathering energy into my eyes I picture nothing but destruction in my line of sight and nothing happens, well I thought nothing happened, something did.
[Mana Eye Death Laser Has Been Created: takes destructive Mana and compacts it into a ball of pure destruction, the next time you open your eye whoever you look at will die without exception as long as they are 100% organic and have no barriers up that block destructive Mana active. passive, your left eye deals 100 damage per second to any organic you see unless a Mana barrier is up]
REGRET!!! my left eye will kill all my friends and activating it is dangerous to, however if it is non organic they will... not feel a thing? does that mean that the Headmaster won't die? he is no human, he is a robot that is going to TAKE OVER THE WORLD!!!!
to much? ok... he most likely just has defences. have to say though, this room is dark.... SO THIS IS THE 'Dark Room'?
[common sense has failed you, give up on life: You have lost the skill Common Sense]
... can I rage quit life? ... no?.... damn it.
[-10 HP] [-10 HP] [-10 HP] [-10 HP] [-10 HP]
oh that is just not fair, why hurt me all at once? or is that just how bad my sense of time is?
[From constant and forced perspective changing you can now speed up your perspective of the world to time skip or slow down the perspective to take in more information, alteration of up to two times faster then normal or two times slower then normal sight is, implemented at your will]$$
silver lining? like hell I will die at this rate, and what sense of time I have is out the window so it is useless at the moment.
[-10 HP]
ok think me.... any ideas? a healing spell? with this gather my aura and command it to heal me.
[+ 20 health]
[Basic Heal Has Been Created: Heals you 20 points of HP each time used, costs 100 Mana]

[Healing Magic Has Been Sealed By Michael Richardson]
ok so that is not the solution they are after... SO WHAT DO THEY WANT???
"can I have a clue as to what I need to do?" I ask the void.
"SURVIVE!!!" a ominous voice that sounds like the Headmaster said.
"BASTARD!!!!" I said back to him knowing If he did something he would reveal something. anything...
[-100 HP]
NOPE, he did not reveal anything, how the hell does he do that?
[Aura: Dragon Slayer]
[From Pushing Your Understanding Of Dragon Slayer Aura Combined With Other Abilities You Now Have Dragon Senses]
[Dragon Eyes: Dragons eyes rest inside of you, release them when Dragon Slayer Aura is active and see with the power of a dragons eyes, this is the first sense in the series of Dragon Senses]
with this, I could see, with my right eye only of course, who knows who I could run into by accident and I would rather avoid that car crash waiting to happen.
The room was actually a small room, it seemed bigger, the walls are made of an anti magic Pixel? so Michael helped make this 'Dark Room'?
"Dragon Claw" I activated Dragon Claw and sliced the room apart letting light in, however I could see just as well so the only reason I knew it was light was because I had a line of sight with the sun... cool eyes,,, dangerous but cool, I like being a Dragon Slayer, I will improve it as it is my best ability as it is safe to use. nothing else is as everything else is to much of a double edge sword, Dragon Slayer is friendly, it is useful. me like...
*thump* the Headmaster whacked my head, "don't go crazy, that was just part one, the appetizer so you could develop some sensory skills that work well in the dark, also... why is your left eye closed?" The Headmaster said to me with confusion.
"I was developing abilities like you said, however I got an ability that could harm those around me if I open my left eye" I said honestly, I felt a strong desire to kill the Headmaster a hate to the Headmaster for some reason but I put the thought to the back of my mind as he has helped me a lot, I cant see him being someone I actually hate. Maybe don't like much from a lot of torture... that has to be it.
"Show me. It is needed that I know what this ability is, don't worry you wont hurt me" The Headmaster said with a smug smile.
"Ok, but don't say I did not let you know it was a bad idea, because it is a really bad idea" I said while getting ready to open my left eye.
"Go on, I am giving you a chance to hurt me so wont you take it?" The Headmaster said to me in a taunting way.
"I know you are playing me, but if you insist" I said and then I opened my eye which did... nothing...
"So that is how it works, that is dangerous, and it feels like it could get a lot stronger. to bad it only effects organic life" The Headmaster said.
"almost sounds like you are trying to say something about yourself being unaffected by it and all" I said with a nice smile planted on my face, he removed it with one line.
"I know, I am completely synthetic so it wont work on me" The Headmaster said while saying it like it is nothing.
"what?" I ask in sheer confusion. synthetic, that could only mean one thing and it goes with him not being detected by my ability.
"I am a robot yes, why? did Kate not tell you?" the Headmaster said with a innocent smile, which I knew had to be fake, no mater how much his tribal mask spooked innocent it just does not look right on him. When I thought he was a robot before I did not actually think he was a robot going to take over the world,
"You know what.... I don't even care any more, so lets start part 2" I said holding my hand in the air showing my manly pride.
"Part 2? ha, at that rate we will be done at part 3408, or when you are 6 feet under" The Headmaster said while laughing.
I will regret this, but I will make damn sure I will LIVE to regret it.

But that's about to change. .....I watched as he kept his eyes trained on the notebook in front of him where he aimlessly drew spirals and coils that surrounded each other, trapped each other, and suffocated each other. My eyes traced the movement of his pen, following each line he drew onto the paper. "Your tea." I snapped out of my trance and looked up, thanking Katy before she went back to the counter. I turned back and caught him looking at me. I expected him to look away and continue acting like I don't exist. Like he's always done and so have I.What I didn't expect was for him to walk right over and sit with me."Hi, I'm Carter."PSA: This story is inspired by the Wattpad novel 'Caffeine' by @meddlingkids ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
