《My power is actually really OP you know》20. Sing like a bird

"My name is Ylin! I'm a survivor from a previous universe. Anyone who hear my name will be extremely unlucky due to the construct I accidentally sent to the beginning of the universe to become a failsafe. That girl on TV is not my sister, she is only a construct of a careless creator, remaking everything to look like the previous the universe. I hate looking at her due to my real sister being dead, and she was considering putting me inside an asylum so I escaped. I know a guy who created the other universe on the other side of the internet. His name is Prismo. Anyone who speak his name in proximity of an internet connected device will be spirited away to Prismo's personal universe. However, that universe has nothing on me because I was the one who created Prismo too, even though he does not know it. Most of the faults of the universe was actually my fault. I cause the big bang. I created entrophy too because it was a mistake. I didn't know I could went back in time that far. It was my biggest mistake and the only time I ever seriously use my power. However, entrophy was just a side effect, the real thing was nastier, making the entire hereafter being a linear timescape robbing everyone of true freewill, leaving me as the only one who is free because I wanted to see my power grow. I cause the decade of despair too. I'm sorry. "
"What the fuck is he talking about?"
"That is the entire truth I swear."
I cry, begging them to not hit me even more. They haven't touched me yet, but I can't stand being so hurt again.
I'm not a strong-willed person. I'm sorry, I'm sorry alright? Don't interrogate me. Please don't. I already told you everything.

The two thugs in suit look at eachother before looking at me.
"On the telly, they say he is loco..."
One of them mutters. Suddenly, he kicks me.
"Damn it. What do I tell him now?" There was fear in his voice.
His fellow looks over to my direction.
"Just throw him back inside. We will just tell the boss the truth."
They toss me back in the dark room, with the girl who can see thing. She was looking at me with a pitiful expression. I sit straight up, looking at her.
All hopes seem to have dimmed after seeing what they have done to me. I think she is also realizing just how serious the situation is, as if kidnapping was not serious enough.
It is okay though. Everything was going just as planned.
While I normally don't interfere in the life of normal people, I do what I could to make people life easier, within my ability while not actually using my supernatural ability of course.
Normally, I'm useless, but this situation was opportune for me. I was raised in a heroic society, I also have a bit of a heroic ideal in me. Mostly, I want people to save me if I'm in trouble, but I could save people too. That is my ideal.
"H.ey.." Wheezing, I call the girl over.
"Y-yeah big brother. Just stay still, I don't think you should move like that."
"You were watching right? Did they bring anything with them?"
"Huh?"
"Did they bring any recording equipment with them?"
"Y-yes?"
"It was inside their pocket, a microphone right?"
"Big brother. I think you should stay still. You are Angelica's brother, I don't think they are going to harm you more. They are going to ransom you right? They won't harm you more if they want to ransom you."

"But what about you?"
I ask her. At that moment, a chill runs down the girl spine.
Damn. I think I just scared a little girl. My fake sister's fan at that. I feel bad. Though she should be thankful, I have already saved her.
Soon, those people won't be problem anymore.
I am really bad at torture, when people hit me, I told them the truth. It is because I can't stand pain, but thankfully, this time, there was some truth that they really shouldn't hear.
It is true, all of it.
Now, these two have recorded my voice. Soon, they will present it to their boss. That cocky son of a bitch I saw earlier who caused me all of this pain seems like some cocky son of a bitch. I bet he is really rich and have a bunch of smartphone and internet connected device on ship too. They just need to bring the recording to him, then the recording will play the forbidden words, hopefully near an internet connected device, and then bam, they are stuck in virtual hell forever.
At least I hope that will happen.
They do have an internet connected device on ship right? If this is one of those unlisted ship and that bastard was more paranoid than I thought, I may actually be in big trouble. There has to be an internet connected device on ship right? Come on, take the bait.
Thankfully, I can breathe a sigh of relief. I only tell the truth. "Anyone who hear my name will be extremely unlucky ", those two hear my name, they should be very unlucky soon.
The clock keeps ticking, and ticking, and ticking.
There was no signs of any movement outside.
Suddenly, the girl yells
"They disappear?!"
Bingo. Thank you sadistic virtual torturer.
