"Sometimes to stay alive, you gotta kill your mind..." - Tyler Joseph



I remember like it was yesterday. The rain poured down on my face as I chased after him, dodging littered trash cans and broken glass easily. Like a fox hunting a rabbit I dashed around corners, over fences, and through people to get my prey. He was fast- but I proved faster. He finally hit a dead end- finally cornered. The formally suave man was reduced to a fracture of what he once was. There was fear in his eyes- a fear I never saw before, and I savored it. There was nowhere else for him to run. I rushed at him, slamming his body into the cold brick wall. I wrapped my hands around his throbbing neck and lifted him up onto the barrier. I swooped my wet light brown hair out of my face as I cherished the imminent power I had over him. His short gasps for breath brought out three simple words. "B-Bring...him....back-k" he stuttered underneath my hands. His face turning bluer and bluer by the second. I chuckled and let go- he plummeted instantly to the ground. All was going according to plan. "If you wanted him back, then why didn't you just say so?" I said cheerfully. From the depths of my mind, I brought forth Johnny. I heard him screaming at me to stop, but his screams only filled me with my ecstasy. "You like what you see Johnny Boy?", I whispered under my breath, "I'll give you a real show." I plunged Johnny back into the darkness and smiled manically at him. "We're going to have a little fun now aren't we Alan?" I soon pinned him down to the ground and loomed over him. I pulled out my weapon of choice- a simple bowie knife. Alan looked in fear as I took the first plunge into his black vest- tearing downwards into him. He screamed in pain as I ripped through his skin and into his intestines- blood oozing out of him. When he was making too much noise I took off my grey wet jacket and gagged him, making him more compliant. I did it again and again and again until I was satisfied with my work, but I had one more thing to do before Johnny saw his "present." On the wall beside Alan, I wrote in his own blood "You. Did. This." I looked down at the gagged life-wavering Alan and then back down at my white bloodstained shirt. Looking up into the rain I sighed and thought to myself. This is what I have to do to be free. I finally let go of myself, but the plan was accomplished

This is the P.O.V of Jimmy, one of my alters. This is just a snippet of what he's done in the past before he came to me. Each of my alters had their own lives and desperately wish to take them back, except Jimmy will do anything and destroy anyone in his path.

I know baby. And I'm sorry. I'm working on something that might work.
