《Shadow》Part five Virgil's perspective
Advertisement
Logan got pretty angry at me earlier, but he still helped me out me giving the designs he made. I really don't want to go out tonight but if I don't then he might not fight me again. As much as I hate hurting people Logan checks me for cutting marks too often so this is the only way I can hurt myself without him knowing.
I decide to take one of my toys that Logan designed, a light-powered stun gun. This is going to suck but at least I have a cool new tool to play with. I end up shooting random things with it until someone comes out to fight me. Or rather three people do.
I recognize Princey and PopStar but there is someone else with them. "My name is Logos and I am getting rather exhausted by your antics." He sounds really familiar maybe I should ask Logan if he knows what meanings could be behind the name. The Logos guy then throws together some chemicals and chucks them at me causing a small explosion which knocks the stun gun out of my hand. "Ki-Shadow what's wrong, I know that you are feeling bad. You are sad and angry and anxious what's wrong?" "It's nothing Patton just leave it alone," I say and his eyes widen from shock. "How did you know?" I laugh a little. "Oh, Princey didn't tell you? Yeah, I figured it out a few days ago. That's probably why he got Logan to cuff you and keep you in the treehouse last night, huh?"
Princey gets pissed at me and makes a whip out of flames. He starts lashing me over and over and over again. I start getting way too anxious like I am going to have a panic attack, I end up doing the breathing exercise that Logan taught me. And I can see Patton getting really anxious. "Hey PopStar, breath in for four seconds, hold for seven and out for eight." Both Princey and Logos look at me shocked. "What, he was about to have a panic attack!" I can see him doing the breathing exercise which calms me a bit. "Why are you helping him?" I scoff at him. "Because panic attacks suck and nobody deserves them." "Even though you were helpful, you also caused this. Therefore, one wishes to acquaint your facial features with a fundamental item used in building walls. Repeatedly." Says Logos. "Oh shut up Legos my mask is indestructible anyways," I say purposefully getting his name wrong in an attempt to anger him. "The name is Logos, as in one of Aristotle's appeals. Ethos, Logos and Pathos. And you would do well to remember that not only in an attempt to avoid further angering me, but it will also aid in any philosophy that you wish to study." God this dude is as big of a nerd as Logan.

"Let's just get to the fighting okay?" I say sarcastically, causing Princey to charge at me with his fists engulfed in flames. I should be fine since he typically believes in fighting fair and doesn't hit me- "Oh God are you fucking kidding me Princey!" I turn invisible in a puff of smoke. "I recognize this smoke design-" Says Logos, shit I only have one option I use the small vial of knockout gas I have on me and knock him out taking him with me. Thank God everything I hold becomes invisible if I want it to. I can see Princey and PopStar panicking as I leave.
I bring him home and handcuff him in a chair in my hidden room. I make sure that he is tightly secured and go to make a proper healthy dinner for both of us, I make a beef, potato and vegetable soup with bread and butter and make some green tea so that we can sit and eat together, he should be waking up by now anyway.
I open the door and then bring in the tray with our meals. "I know that you probably don't trust me but you need to eat so here, you can pick so that you feel safe if you want." I hold out the tray for him to choose. "Thank you, but why have you chosen to treat me kindly after everything you do." I sigh, it feels like I can trust him. "Contrary to what everyone thinks I am not evil, or even that mean of a person in my day to day life, but you already have seen that haven't you Logan?" He cocks his head to the left. "So you have deciphered my identity, may I ask how?" I chuckle a bit. "Well for starters you are the only person that Patton would have let be recruited that is as nerdy as you and also you did just confirm it." He smiles lightly. "So since we both know each other's identity would you mind taking off the mask Virgil?"

Whelp he knows, he hates me, everyone hates me, even I have me, I suck at everything, I can't even self-harm properly. My mind starts spiralling. "In for four, hold for seven, out for eight." Logan keeps saying over and over again trying to calm me down. "Why did you help me after everything I did, everything I did to Patton." He rests his head on my shoulder since he can't hug me but wants to keep me calm. "Because as you put it 'Panic attacks suck and nobody deserves them.' and you chose to help someone who likely has negative feelings toward you, it is only fair that I do the same." "Thanks, Logan, unfortunately, I still have to keep you as a prisoner. Lucky for you though I am still going to bring you balanced meals and problems for you to do. We can even just talk, but I can't have you ruining my work even if you don't agree with it." He just sighs. "I presumed that would be the case, would it be possible for you to bring me some kind of puzzle to do." This kid is even nerdier than I thought he was. "Fine, but you are helping me with my homework," I say laughing just a little. "Sounds adequate. Where would it be best for me to sleep?"
I probably should be more concerned that I have a room in my base that is set up in case I kidnap someone. It has a set of spare beds, clean water, food, a first aid kit, and spare blankets. "In here, I am going to have to lock you to your bed though because I don't trust you not to try to escape. And I am staying in here with you in case anything happens. But I need your phone so that I can make sure that all of your friends and your family know that you are safe, okay?" He just hands me his phone, I know his password, 1.61803398875. I don't know but apparently, it is an important math number. The bronze fraction or something like that.
I shoot a text to Patton and Roman saying that I might not be at school because I am not feeling well and not to worry. Then I send a text to Princey and PopStar since they probably use different numbers for that, and let them know I am fine just realized that my skills would be better utilized out of combat. Then I message his parents saying that I am staying over at 'Virgil's house'. We end up going to bed after locking him to the bed and falling asleep.
Suddenly I hear something-
