Not me?

I sat there doing my math work, listening to Hollow talk, when I felt tingly, wired, strange, numb.

'Jayden, I h-hear him...'

I look over at Hollow, who has tears running down her face.

I raise my hand, I don't really feel it go up.

"Can I use the bathroom, please?"

He nodded, handing me a pass. I quickly walk out, looking over at Hollow

"Hollow, who? Are you okay?"

'He wants out...' She sobbed out corving her face.

"Hollow, you're making no s-"

And there it was, it hit me like a flash, screaming filled my ears. I quickly shut the stall door and cover my ears.

"What is going on!" I scream, but not really, no, it was in my head.

'Jayden, I know we have never tried this, but I need you to let me drive.' I looked around but couldn't see them. I heard Lazar, 

but they were nowhere to be seen, only Hollow.

"Drive? Laz, what are you talking about!? Why is everything so f*****g loud!"

'We've been holding Jason from entering our body, but he's breaking in. Please, Jay, just let go!' Lazar has never raised his voice 

at me before. I was so confused. 'I know everything is loud, we are fighting right now, please just let go!'

My head was pounding, and the voices, all the loud screaming voices, weren't helping. I took a breath and shivered. Then, I felt pushing, it hurt my head.

'Jayden, please, Jason, is trying to get to you, I am stronger than him, but he has the others on me right now, please Jay, don't let him-'

'Okay!'

I blink and suddenly I am in a room, there are shadows there, Hollow, Vincent Jason upset in the corner, and Lazar isn't there. Then I look over and see 4 more new faces.

"Where am I..." I looked at Hollow who point a this window, and I saw myself, but not myself, I wasn't doing any of the things 

that were happening.

'This is so f*****g stu-!'

'Jason, you're so annoying, just shut up.' One of the new faces spoke. They had green glowing eyes, younger than Jason, and they looked around my age, 15 or 16. They had silver hair that faded into green, they had their hair down, it was long and messy, under the black hood of the hoodie they wore that had green circuit-like outlines along with it, they wore combat boots and dark jeans.

'You bart, you have n-' Jason got cut off again by a tall man punching him down.

'He said shut up.' The voice was colder, darker. His dark brown eyes with a hint of green looked tired. He wore a mask on his face, hiding most of his face. He wore a biker jacket with fingerless gloves, a plain black shirt, and jeans.

'Guys, can we please not fight in front of Helena!' The girl spoke; she had very soft hazel eyes that matched her light brown hair. She wore this sweater, which was light pink with black leggings.

And then beside here was a younger girl, maybe around 4 or 5. She was clinging to the other girl's leg. She wore a SpongeBob shirt with black leggings as well. Her light blue eyes were wide with fear, her bright red hair framing her face.

Jason stayed on the floor as the man truned to face me. 'Yo.'

"Yo?" I questioned, a lot is happening right now.

'I'm Marek, this is Riven.' He gestured to the boy with glowing green eyes who didn't meet my gaze.

'I'm Emmie!! And this sweet girl right here is Helena!'

'Umm, what is happening..?' I ask quiety looking down.

'Oh yeah, you're new to this. We always been here, waiting. Lazar said to stay hidden for now, but when he saved Hollow from 

Jason, that plan got runined huh?' Emmie laughed nervously.

'Yeah, no s**t.' Riven spoke, leaning back in his chair.

'Riven.' Marek spoke with a warning in his voice.

'Wh-who is she?' Helena spoke, gripping onto Emmie's leg.

Emmie picked her up. 'Thats a boy, Helena.' She paused before continuing. 'His name is Jayden.'

'Oh...Sorry, Mr Jayden.'

I look around. Hollow is standing near Jason, making sure he stays down, and Vincent is looking out the window, still quiet. "Its fine...Where am I?"

'Oh, the vision room! This is the room where we come and talk, and also watch and make sure we don't do anything dumb.' Emmie smiled again.

"There are more rooms?"

'No s**t. How stupid is this kid?' Riven got a side eye from Marek.

'Sorry.' Riven grumbled out.

'Yes, Jayden, there are more rooms. You'll come here often now, so might as well get to know us.' Hollow spoke.

"This is happening way to fast."

'Yeah, sorry about that! But we only have so much time before Lazar is going to want to come back. They love sleeping.'

'Omg, Emmie, did I tell you Jayden is allowed to call Lazar, Laz!?' Emmie looked over quickly at Hollow.

'You're joking!?'

'No!!'

'They said they didn't like nicknames!!!' Emmie said, setting down Helena.

'Girls, please. Thats not the point.'

'Sorry, Marek.' They both grumbled at the same time.

'Well, Jayden, as you know or could guess, Lazar is our leader, you could say. He says who can and who can't drive. And I am 2nd in command to him. I am the protector of us, mainly this kid.' He ruffled Rivens' hair. 'As you could see, my eyes have a tint of green in them. I linked myself to Riven; he tends to hide what he's feeling from us, so if he's a threat to us, we won't let him drive. You know, Hollow, she and Emmie protect our younger side, as you can tell. Vincent, well, we aren't too sure what he does. He hasn't spoken a word to us.'

"So, is he useless?"

'No, I wouldn't say that. We are all here for a reason, he is just waiting for the right moment to use our body.'

"Okay then."

I hear an echo across my mind. 'Guys, I'm done with math, Jayden. I'm letting you drive again.'

And suddenly, I was back to where I started.
