— You deceived me…
Kane did not know how his perfect plan had failed in just a second. He had coaxed him with such trepidation, knowing: one tiny mistake, and his deception would be exposed. Even if he had convinced himself otherwise, there was no escape from reality.
How much time and nerves had it taken him not to yell at him? First, he had to get him in order. The first step of his perfect plan: wash up. Second: get dressed, and third: go outside. But his plan was destined to end at the first stage.
He thought everything was going normally, but when Kopii saw himself in the mirror, he immediately understood that it had only been self-suggestion. He should have just told him to go straight outside.
Nausea.
While Kane was thinking about how to make him go out among people, Kopii unexpectedly vomited. And it went on for quite a long time.
— You just need to go outside, and your skill will do everything for you. Do you understand?
…
But he did not listen to him; he just knelt and stared blankly at the floor, his body trembling a little. But suddenly he stood up and headed to the shower. Turning on the cold water.
He did not even flinch; he stood motionless under the cold shower. Drops ran down his body. The trembling fully stopped. But his breathing began to quicken.
— Ah, ha, oh, ah…
…
He began washing so intensely that he started scraping off his skin. The water under Kopii's feet turned red. But it did not bother him one bit; he kept washing, feeling nothing but disgust for his body.
«If I were ugly, this wouldn't have happened.»
Tearing until they bled the places that had been touched very often, running the sponge over those places, he remembered all the horror he had been through. But the worst thing was — however hard he scrubbed, he still felt very dirty.
— Why?
— Why?
— Why?
— Why can't I wash it off?..
— How…
Beginning to scrub with the sponge with new force. With every movement, he remembered what they had done to him; it was too unbearable.
He flew out of the shower as if scalded.
???
Kopii looked at his trembling hand; his eyes widened in confusion. His thoughts of the rape faded into the background, because now something had happened that he could not have expected.
POV: Kane
I watched, but I could no longer observe anything except how he just scraped his own skin off and spouted some incoherent nonsense. And after that nonsense, his movements became more chaotic, and now I could understand what he was saying.
But right now, that was not so important in this situation. If he kept going like this, he would definitely die, and then all my fun would end. For me, rape was not such a big event; sex was natural, so there was nothing special about it. Of course, it was a little unpleasant to do it with that monster. But with the seven Amazons, it was quite fun, although I wanted more, but I could not. They simply lost interest.
But right now, I had to act; my words did not even reach him — it was like talking to a wall.
If I had a body, I would be biting my nails from nervousness.
I need to act, act, act! And what could I do? Kane realized one small truth.
What if my words don't reach him? How else could I influence him? He was something like a schizophrenic who simply ignores me. Apart from my voice, I could not influence him in any way, and that was very bad.
Kane's thoughts began racing at the speed of light, searching for a way to solve this problem, but nothing came to his mind. All that remained was to watch as, slowly but surely, he skinned himself alive.
But suddenly a very simple idea came to him, so simple and logical that he did not even understand why he had not thought of it right away. He could simply seize control of his body!
– Ha-ha-ha!
Having suddenly understood, he could not hold back his laughter. Why had this situation seemed bad? Why had I thought that? I can use it to my advantage! How could he not have thought of it? Simply because I did not care? Well, let's let that slide; after all, it happens to everyone. Right? Right…
Well, fine. I focused on one goal: full control. At first, nothing worked, which was very disappointing. But I was not going to give up so easily; after all, he would not lose anything — well, except Kopii's death… That is, nothing — and he would gain a lot. No, even more. He would gain everything. Absolutely everything. At this realization, he took wild pleasure.
So with new force, he began trying to seize the body. But he was met with more and more failures; his joy diminished. But his motivation did not go anywhere; the reward was too high to give up.
So, without slowing his pace and efforts, he continued. To continue moving towards his goal. Complete freedom! So he did not even have the right to step back. And if Kopii felt the thirst for freedom, then all his efforts would be in vain. But in the end, he would stop his actions, and that was no longer what Kane needed.
But he knew that his worries about this were useless, because in such a state, the other would definitely not notice the growing thirst. According to Kopii's memories — who had spent very, very, very much time with books because of the place where he grew up, only in books could he find solace, but that was not important now.
The important thing was that he had read a lot of heroic stories, in most cases complete nonsense, but the point was that the villain almost always lost because he simply underestimated the main character of the story.
It was better to overestimate Kopii's abilities than to underestimate them. After all, such a chance did not come often. Here it was, that first chance, when he could fully seize his body, without going back, or it was just my imagination.
But with every failure, without wanting it himself, my hope fell, and quite rapidly. But, feeling drops of water running down the body, my hope flared with new force.
If he could already feel, then his plan would end successfully. He was one step closer to freedom. And at last, he could fully feel every cell, the inhale and exhale, hearing, taste, smell, feel that he had a face! It had been so long since he had felt this!
Without hesitation, Kane immediately jumped out of the shower. Having done so, he immediately lost control.
— What is happening?..
Bang.
Kopii fell; his eyes filled with confusion when his hand began choking him; his own body betrayed him and tried to kill him.
— A-ha-ha!
He heard someone's laughter, but that was not so important. The grip on his neck grew stronger and stronger, so his eyes began to roll back. He did not resist; only one thought spun in his head.
— Why?
— Why all this?
With such thoughts, he fully gave himself to this situation; he did not want to think about what was happening to him. Why his hand had begun choking him; he no longer saw any point in resisting.
He simply surrendered to this feeling, surrendered to non-existence. Feeling the darkness consume every part of every cell. Until his eyes closed.
«I don't want to suffer anymore...»
He lay like that on the cold floor of his shower, but not for long. He began to rise; his face lit up with happiness and the coming fun.
— Ha-ha-ha-ha!
He laughed; his laughter was filled with mad notes.
— FINALLY!!!
