i took Silver back, frowning, knowing exactly what horrors he had seen. "no one is going with him. and every time he shows up, i will stab him more and more, until he is no longer able to drive his fucking car after us." i stated easily, slyly. flip open, flip shut. open, shut. open and shut, open and shut, the blade flew in my hands, holding my attention. "I'm with Anaya on that one." Jayne chimed in. "he's a nut with more holes in his head than Anaya's poked into people." "that's a lot." May whispered, adding onto Jayne's statement. i smiled, remembering. "it is. to say the least, I'm just a bit sadistic when it comes to knifing someone." i said, not glancing up from the blade. open and shut, open and shut. "but i get the job done and few people actually get killed. to kill someone with a gun, it's detached. you don't ever touch them. you don't feel their body jerk underneath your hands." open and shut. open and shut. "but to kill with a knife...now that's different." open and shut. open and shut. an undertone laced my voice, almost undetectable. but it was there. and it had a name. i was talking differently now. "you feel them jerking and twisting to avoid the cold steel as it rips open their flesh and you watch as their life blood pours out of their bodies." i was talking faster, a glint in my eye. "and you hear their screams. screaming in agony. like an animal at the slaughter house. begging. begging for you to spare their pitiful life. like they had something worth living for. but it's not a quick way to die. they bleed out slowly. it's such a slow way to go. it's not pretty. but you die all the same." a childlike demeanor laced its way into my voice, adding to the named thing. the thing called insanity. "we all die the same. dead dead dead dead dead." i said. i giggled. open and shut. open and shut. "they all fall down. all fall down. dead dead dead dead dead. we all fall down--" "ANAYA!" Jayne snapped. i shook my head. the blade clicked shut. i pocketed it, folding my hands in my lap and looking down like a little girl that did something wrong. i cleared my throat. "sorry." i whispered. the child and insanity were gone from my voice and i was back to normal. somewhat. May hugged me. "i thought you said you were getting better?" she murmured. "i thought i was. apparently, not so much." i said, patting her head and frowning thoughtfully, my hand automatically reaching for Silver. May smacked my hand and it returned sharply to my lap. "has the Sight been flickering?" Jayne asked, watching me in the rear view mirror. i nodded solemnly. "it's almost a full moon tonight." May whispered. i frowned, looking up. "yeah, but she shouldn't be so bad as to go off onto a tangent." Jayne said. "i thought i was getting better..." i whispered, tilting my head. "usually Max keeps an eye on you." "but..." "and now he's gone, which is letting it run wild again. you need another keeper, Anaya." Jayne said seriously. i sighed. "I'll get looking." i murmured, fiddling with my thumbs. "you'll get better. don't worry." May said, hugging me again. "too late." i whispered.

Abigail shuddered nervously as Anaya continued. While emotioanlly disturbed enough to do something such as kill, she was not exactly intentionally sadistic and did not appreciate the description. Rather, thinking about the imagery actually brought anxiety to her stomach and palpations to her heart. However, after calming down, she did not hesitate to also hug Anaya when she was finished, having some idea of how she felt. Adam patted Anaya on the back, looking concerned. "What's a keeper?" he asked Anaya.

I bit my lip, hesitant to explain why i needed a keeper, although they already saw. Jayne cleared her throat to explain. "in Anaya's family, and with her Gift even, there are some...complications. being able to See peoples emotions is bad enough and can make you have mood swings, but with Anaya's family, it goes deeper. if she touches that person when her Sight is on, she can see why that person is feeling that way. she can also feel it, full force. and with her inability to make it stop flicking on and off so often when the moon becomes fuller, she needs... normalcy. Max was unable to feel emotion, which helped balance out every single emotion around her that she would take in. make her normal. that's the job of a keeper. to keep the Seer normal and themselves. but with him gone and so much rage and emotion around her...well, there are others in her head. it's not just Anaya in her head. theres several others. one for each emotion. and the one you just met is the emotion of Sadisticism, i guess you would call it. she is able to project her voice most often out of Anaya's mouth. if Anaya doesn't get someone who can't feel emotion to keep hers in line, we will have a full car." Jayne said. she turned around in her seat, a cheerful smile on her face. "oh, and she'll go absolutely insane." she added. "yeah. that's just half of it." i whispered, my voice laced with pain. "Everyone, meet Agony. this is Anaya's sad side. the side you met before was Adamant. there's plenty of others i don't feel like listing right now." Jayne said. "there's plenty you don't know. plenty you shouldn't know. what these eyes have seem. what these hands of done. you shouldn't know." i whispered, the pain interweaved into my voice. i fell silent, a haunted look on my face. "when you've been around her long enough when she's without a keeper, then you'll know everyone by name." Jayne said, shrugging. "and if my guess is correct, Apathy should be here in three... two... one..." "yeah, so?" i asked, glancing at her, my voice monotone and my face uncaring. "yeah, yeah, you know me, blah blah blah." i said, just watching her. Jayne shook her head and went back to watching the road. "Apathy, can you give us Anaya back?" May asked, looking at me sadly. emotion came back to my face and i hugged her. "I'm back, Anaya's back, I'm back. don't worry." i said, rubbing her back. she was close to tears. so was i. i rubbed my head, feeling a headache coming on. "man, i hate switching so many emotions in so little time." i grumbled.

Andy returned Adam's smile as she watched Anaya's moods change so rapidly it made her head spin. 'You know I'd offer and all but I don't think we'd mix well and all with my issues but until I resolve my issues I can't really be of any help in this department.' She groaned 'Do you think we could casually go to a store and get me some cigarettes? All this insanity is making me need one really, really badly.'
Damon slowly got up, and by slowly I mean inch by inch in a good five to seven minute period. 'I can't believe I'm going to have to call for freaking reinforcements to get a damn teenager.'

Jayne threw back a pack that was resting in the glove box. "girl after my own set of lungs." she said, smirking. i pulled a giant bag of tootsie rolls out of there, grabbing a few and putting it back. i started to chew, calming down. i took in a deep breath, releasing it in a sigh as i swallowed the tootsie rolls. "at least there are some weirder things out there that calm people down," "yes there are." i said, rolling my eyes at her; tootsie rolls calmed me down. "at least they're yummy." May said, smiling up at me. "yes there certainly are." i said, smiling at her and looking out the window. i frowned. the moon was three quarters full, growing larger by the day. "Jayne. we're going to have to find a keeper fast. that, or lock me in a metal box for two days. because we have four days to find me a new keeper." i said, staring at the moon.

"Dude its like the old Werewolf curse but worse and I love you so much right now." Andy said all in one breathe as she lit up a cigratte. She sighed contently "Were exactly can we get you one? Like I doubt there on Ebay or something like that."
// idk why but I had a funny idea it'd be Damon xD

"we don't get her one. it's in their blood. we go to a crowded place, and she sits somewhere with her Sight on. someone's keeper blood will draw them to her and then we have our next keeper. it's very strange." Jayne said, shaking her head dismissivly. she put her hand back to take a puff of the cigarette. "gimme a puff if you will?" she asked, glancing at Andy. "it's really weird." i said, eating another tootsie roll. "but i'm really weird so its normal for me. at least the blood thing keeps it around my age. otherwise it would be really creepy." "well it would be stupid if the keeper can't connect with it's Seer." Jayne said, shrugging. "true." i said, glancing at the moon and inching away from its light.

"Would just normal, or perpetually happy people work?" Abigail asked Anaya with much curiosity, a plot forming in her mind. Adam looked at her quite oddly. "Do we know of such people?" he asked her, receiving a broad grin in response.

// I would because its fun xD
Andy nodded "Course," she handed her cigratte to Jayne."Should we go to the mall again? I doubt he, Damon, will find us so quickly again expectialy if you went all Sweeny Todd on his ass."
Damon sighed leaning against the wall as he made some calls hopeing someone pick up. Maybe he should just crash at a hotel for the night and start fresh in the morning? Or maybe just got fired in the 2nd day on the job. Yeaah the hotel did sound rather lovely and the way his bones were screaming in pain made it even more tempting." Besides," Damon muttered "what can she do in one night that I won't be able to find out?"

"three towns over the population nearly doubles and i haven't been there yet. if we can get there overnight i doubt he would be able to find us. you just get onto the highway here and then follow it. there's a giant mall there." i said, reading the signs. i looked at Abby. "and unfortunately, no. if it were a perpetually happy person, i would go Sweeny Todd on their ass too [LOVE THAT MOVIE!!!!!] because perpetually perky people piss me off and wow that was hard to say. it needs to be someone who doesn't feel emotion very often. and the super happy freak wouldn't have Keeper blood." i said, stretching my tongue out. "we can stop in the next town and pick stuff up for Andy." May added in helpfully. "perfect." i added, smirking and adjusting my hat.

"Oh well. Adam, get out of the car." Abigail replied. "Are you serious?" he asked, a surprised, but amused expression on his face. "Were you just volunteering me?" "No." Abigail lied, her tone easily giving such away. "But I'm not even perpetually happy." he protested. "Sure you are." she replied. "Now get out." "What? Why?!" he asked, narrowing his eyes with a bewildered expression. "Because. Happy people make her go all Sweeney Todd. I don't want to be there for that." she said evenly. Adam only facepalmed.
"Hobos!" Abigail suddenly exclaimed as she thought of Andy's situation. "The population doubles and so do the hobos! If you hide in plan sight, he would never expect that. A hobo lies in plain sight, and they're the useless members of society nobody cares about. And, they won't tell anyone about you. All you gotta do is find a blanket or a coat and lie down next to one in an alley, on the sidewalk, or a stoop. No one notices!" Adam looked at her oddly. "I have no personal problem with that, but...um....hobos?" he asked doubtfully, wondering if it was time to get his friend a new mediaction, or a stronger one.

i looked at her, bemused. "or, i could just keep stabbing him until he physically can no longer go on." i said, grinning evilly and unclasping my hands and reaching for the knife. i then sat on my hands, the look of a schoolgirl in trouble on my face again.

"No." Abigail said protectively, hugging Adam with narrowed eyes. "My Adam. No stabbing, punching, hitting, kicking, maiming, or otherwuise hurting him." she stated. "He may not be craz, but I am." Adam looked down. "I feel loved now." "Adam, shut up." Abigail said, detatching and elbowing him in the ribs.

Adam snorted as he watched the two, unable to help but be amused. Somehow, I doubt that, he thought to himself, his mind going back to all of the horrors his gifted had shown him. Yet he was still fairly optimistic and mostly sane. Go figure, he thought, noting the peculiarity of it. "Oh. Okay. Proceed then." Abigail nodded with a wave. "I'll even provide the weapons for that." she stated, unfazed by the prospect of the man's death. Once again, he disturbed her and thus she did not care much for his life. Also, he was stupid.
