Giegue's Descent (old)

I felt the consciousness detach from my body as the melody Maria’s great grandson and his cohorts echoed through my mind, rattling every tiny crevice and endless cave that my power housed, causing it to become irregular and unstable. I try to hold onto my sanity, in fear of what I have done, immediately regretting the orders of my people, following their orders to forget the one who had raised me… It has caused the undoing of my own mind…

I feel my body being lifted away, the alien tongue of my kind, the sense of spacial warping upon my skin indicated a period of time travel. Hearing the sound of whirring tools and the sizzling of plasma energy, I couldn’t distinguish the time or place. I felt my mind trying to pull itself apart, trying to hold it together made it shake more violently. I felt pieces dropping away, but the sound of the melody stuck like a tumor..

“H-help… Please… Anyone… H-help me… Forget…”

They couldn’t distinguish the human language which I spoke, dismissing my interminable pain and continuing their work. I felt tears build in my eyes, looking to my hand, my vision tapering off from the physical plane. The PSI powers I was born with were now beginning to fray into something even more erratic… Those who were working could sense something was wrong…

If my mind’s de-fragmentation was inevitable, I wish for death upon myself.. I try to communicate once again, but, feeling something wrong, the build of power swelling inside me, causing my physical form to lose connection with my mind. My astral body was only just intact, but was barely connected, stuck in a state of limbo of from moving on to the plane of spirits and the physical plane..

“K-kill…. K-kill… Me…..”

The distorted sound of my thoughtful wish began to echo across the minds of the people who were working, I look over from where I lay to see a giant machine… And the body of my mother being dissected with earth tools, my eyes widening.

“N-no..! Mother! That’s… Not right… Not right…! Stay away!”

A wave of energy began surging over the work space, the sensitive minds of my more highly evolved race falling to the ground, clutching their temples tightly, letting out cries of anguish and pain.

In reaction to this wave, I try to grasp onto sanity once again, fearful of the energy my mind unleashed..

The time that went by as I watched so many awful things happen to my beloved mother tore apart my soul, but all I could do was lie there, watching them. They use what they see from my mother’s organs to make modifications to the device, so that it may contain me for all time. As was the original purpose to keep me housed for failing my task, a banishment suited for one who had been ’tainted’…

As the waves of my psychic energy grew in magnitude, they started to sense the unstable nature of my mind, more modifications were made, and finally, they began to step towards me. My body was turned over, and I felt the sharp pain of an earth scalpel penetrate my skin, cutting into my neck and feeling my neural cords being tampered with. Artificial neural cords were attached to my spinal cord and plugged into a machine.

My heart calmed as my mind stabilized, though the nature of this unstable power remained within me, clutching it in my hands in dark subconscious… As the thoughts of what I saw of Maria suddenly began repeating inside my mind… I feel my anger simmer and boil to the temperatures of the star that sustains this planetary system, and perhaps even farther, and a unnatural mental smile creased across my face..

“G-go back…! Go back!!!” I shout angrily, as I mentally attack my own kind, sending them into a fit of pain greater than before that sends them to the ground, writhing and screaming in pain. But for some reason, I can’t help but smile, they deserved it, they were inconsiderate enough to tell me to deal such atrocities to a species that accepted me without any conditions, despite my appearance and psychic abilities, when they could have just as easily done to me what they had done to my mother… Humans are such accepting creatures.. Somehow, I can’t decide whether this is a admirable aspect of their existence, or a aspect that should be just as easily despised as my species’ boorish behavior..

I step towards Maria, seeing her clinging to life, barely conscious…. Her organs were strewn apart the opening they made into her abdomen, her face is as pale as a sheet, an internal machine made by my kind was attached to her neck and heart, it was the only thing keeping her alive.. I am speechless, grasping Maria’s cheeks in my hands, barely able to comprehend such a beautiful face being reduced to an object through their eyes..

“M-maria… No… This… This isn’t right..! Wh-wh…a..t… Th…ey….D…id….”

“It’s not, but… I saw you suffer too.. I’-I’m.. S-sorry… I.. At least.. Got to see your face a last time.. That’s what I was clinging to… Maybe someday.. We’ll see each other..” she said weakly, eyes half lidded, barely able to manage a smile.

“N-no! We can fix you… I can fix you… We can go to my planet and… W-we can reconstruct your organs.. You just have to hold on.. Please..!” I shouted, feeling my limbs give out from other me, grasping her hand tightly, desperate to make sure my mother would survive this ordeal, although that wasn’t her intentions, I could tell in her eyes, and that was what tore me apart even deeper..

She shook her head, looking up to me, closing her eyes, tears budding and dripping down her cheeks

“I am happy.. I got to see you… I couldn’t be more thankful of the fact that I raised you.. A beautiful, thoughtful, strong boy.. We’ll see each other again.. Trust me, okay?” I watch quietly, raising myself shakily on my legs, and nodding. “Good..” she whispered quietly, as she shakily reached to the device on her neck, pressing the button, her heart beginning to beat unnaturally and sporadically, her breathing following suit the same way, and with the remains of her oxygen supply, she says “… I love you..” a droning beep is emitted from both devices, signifying that her heart… Inevitably… Stopped pulsing…

I stare, before falling to my knees. Clutching her hand tightly as warmth disappears, I’m unable to speak, no thoughts, no words… There was nothing..

Anger and sadness build inside my body to the point of shattering its contains, along with my psychic powers, there is no other way to let this out… I shout at the top of my lungs, the emotions giving me something I lacked. In a fraction of a second, a mouth formed, my respiratory system connecting with it and a ear shattering scream is let past the torn pieces of skin.

Tears flood past my face as the wave of energy kills all remains of life in the select part of the Earth’s crust I resided in… A Spacial Rift tears the space asunder outside boulders fall and magma flood the space outside the cave. Soil turns to iron then to metal in seconds from the sheer power, forming distorted shapes outside, the metal’s appearance as liquid as mercury but solid as any stern metal.

At the end of my rage, I feel nothing once more, falling to the ground. Clutching my chest, I bury my consciousness deeper into my body, not wanting to live, but also not wanting to die. The feeling of sadness and anger begins giving birth to a new consciousness substituting itself inside my body..

The terrible power which had killed everyone… I try to fight for my body back, but this frightful power that takes form inside this subconscious is too much. The remains of my emotions has formed a new entity, only fragments of my emotions forming it, and the desire to carry out my species wishes remains cemented at the core of its being. And as a final measure, the newly born consciousness sealing my irregular feelings towards the human race deep inside, from which I would probably never escape..

“I-I’m… So sad…. W-why….”

The ages go by after this machine was built, the organic material which my kind built interacted with the feeling of something missing within this new entity. To counter this feeling, it manipulates the flesh of the device around itself, attaching the cords to its body to control its own thoughts. I could sense the depravities of life outside the cave, the life my powers killed.. I can sense the now dominant personality which this entity possesses, the negative energy and insanity dripping into the future ages. The entity has already begun developing its own motives, believing that its purpose was to still fill out the invasion, against my will..

I feel all the negativity that this entity lets go into the future eras, I could feel it all. I didn’t know all the tears I’ve cried could flood the infinite subconscious that this cage lays in…

Is there any point to keep holding on, for the possibility that I would somehow be freed? It was unlikely that I would ever get my body back, as this alternate entity is beginning to seek pawns, and found the will of a young child who is hopeless and weak willed to tie its strings to and pull along to his own ends

Since we are one and the same, I feel everything he feels, often I can’t even tell what are my thoughts and what are his. My power has become a monster, the embodiment of evil… I am powerless to stop it… If there’s anyone who can help me…. I have no friends and family left… Is there anyone that can hear me?

Please… It hurts too much… I can’t take it anymore… This is indeed a punishment.. Worse than death….
