The weather is nice

  Hmm it really is

  It's slightly cloudy and the blue gives off a nice warm feeling

  Who said that

  Who is speaking

  I thought while starting to feel fear

  I turned my head from the window to examine the classroom for the person speaking

  Well try as I might; it's completely impossible to tune him out

  But human beings are one thing if not hopelessly relentless

  Who are you

  What do you want

  Come out

  I thought in my head but there was no reply

  The fear grew in my heart

  And I more than others like to think of myself as someone who is relentless

  This is something that increasingly baffles me after such a long time

  I mean why do I feel the cool breeze coming from outside the window

  Why do I feel my scruffy hair sweep across my cheeks as it covered my eyes

  Why do I feel the slight friction between my uniform and my bare skin

  Why

  Why

  Why

  Is that me

  It does sound like my voice

  That is something I would think about myself

  If that's me then who am 'I'

  I am me

  Then who is 'he'

  Calm down and think

  I'm thinking right now and I can hear myself thinking

  But I can also hear 'myself' thinking too referring to the voice

  So I had just left my dorm room alone after locking the door

  The key turned with a click and I left after that

  Isn't 'he' talking about this morning

  I remember turning the key only once because I don't care whether they steal anything

  It's not like they would be able to steal much from me anyway

  I guess it really is me then

  Is it possible that I suddenly developed the ability to think multiple thoughts simultaneously

  Did I suddenly develop super powers or something

  No that's ridiculous

  Why would someone like me ever be given a supernatural gift

  I'm no hero neither can I be the main character

  I'm too much of a coward

  Then maybe it's all a hallucinations or I'm dreaming

  I should pinch myself and see if I'll wake up

  I pinched the skin of my hand tightly

  Ow

  So I'm definitely awake

  I rubbed the red skin that was still transmitting pain to my senses

  Superpowers... something I never imagined would be given to me

  The superpower is actually scary

  To hear yourself thinking while also thinking

  It's like there's voice is whispering in your mind that sounds exactly like you

  It's feels really creepy

  If it's really superpowers then maybe I should find a way to make it stop

  Well I'm not someone who does the correct thing anyway

  They weren't wrong when they would call me dumb under their breath as I passed the hallway

  So where was I

  I was going to drop the key off with the one in charge

  The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there.

  It hasn't stopped yet and I don't have the faintest idea on how to do it

  I tried telling the voice to stop but it doesn't seem to hear me

  I was ignored

  Next; I tried to stop thinking completely but the voice just continued speaking

  Even if it was a superpower then I would have been able to get some kind of reaction

  Even if it was just a tiny pause

  But I got nothing

  My thoughts shifted from getting superpowers to a parasite

  Maybe there is a parasite trying to take control of my body and the side effect of the process not being complete

  That makes me feel even worse

  I can move my body though

  I tried to stand up and I did

  So there's no problem there

  But I also ended up alerting the classroom

  Once they saw it was me; they glared at me and stopped paying attention

  I hurriedly sat down before it could result in a problem

  Then am I just going crazy

  Maybe the stress of living has finally caught up to me and I developed a second voice in my head

  Then what is the purpose of this voice

  I was walking to drop the key off when I got distracted by something

  Then someone bumped into me

  "Watch where you're going trash" the voice was five points anger and four points disgust

  Oh I remember this incident

  I remember being distracted by the sound of someone falling

  I turned to look and I saw one of my bullies about to jump his friend

  The friend dodged and the bully collapsed on the floor

  But the friend that was attacked had been scratched during the attack

  I remember seeing black spots on the face of the bully

  And one of that same black spot grew on the hand of the friend close to the wound

  I had a bad feeling when I saw those black spots

  That's because there was also someone else there

  The friend couldn't carry the bully alone so they called a passing student for help

  That student was my desk mate

  The same desk mate that I just observed to have a black spot on his face

  He probably got scratched when he helped carry the bully to the clinic

  Then that would mean that the cause of the bully collapsing is infectious

  Now what should I do

  I should observe the situation first

  I'm not one for confrontation

  I tried to observe the condition of my deskmate

  There wasn't much to find out from his body because of his uniform and the fact that his head was down

  But I could see that the black spots were visible on the places I could see

  It looked like decaying skin and burnt skin combined

  There was a smell of rotten eggs

  And there were faint sounds coming from him like painful moans

  Overall he was looking and sounding very scary

  I shifted myself away from him

  I debated on alerting the teacher about the fact that his head was down

  But then I saw that half of the classroom also had their head down

  The teacher doesn't seem to care about the students asleep

  So that's not going to work

  And I can't tell him myself that he is sick

  First of all; he won't even listen to me or acknowledge my raised hand

  Second of all, I'm not sure that the desk mate in question would cooperate to go to the clinic

  And asking for leave myself won't be allowed

  It's the only form of bullying the teachers would be able to do to me

  I won't be allowed a sick leave or a bathroom pass

  The only choice I had was to shift as far away as possible from my deskmate while watching him

  Hopefully I'm just being crazy and there's nothing to worry about

  He might just stay collapsed until the end of first period

  Honestly looking at him just made me more uneasy so I shifted my focus to the hallway

  There were a lot of people being carried away to the clinic

  There were also some weird students who seemed to be leaving in a hurry

  They looked anxious and were wary of the collapsed student passing

  They were really suspicious

  It seems like there is something going on in the school

  But I don't dare to go outside to check

  If all those collapsed students are like my desk mate then that would be terrifying

  That means that the danger is in a large quantity

  Scary

  I'm really scared

  That led me to thinking about how nice the weather is

  Hmm but I seem to be forgetting something

  I was about to an answer the question on why I'm still alive

  It's because I'm a coward

  Growl

  I was already tense because of the situation outside so I jumped when I heard such a deep growl

  I turned my head to see my deskmate raising his head up from the desk

  I stood up from my seat in fear once I saw his red eyes

  I was terrified at this point

  My heart was beating loudly in my ears and I trembled

  I shakily took a step back but then I realized I was seated beside the window

  There wasn't a place for me to run to except forward

  And infront of me was my desk mate turned monster

  The monster lunged at me as I screamed

  I tried to push him away but I was too weak from lack of appropriate nutrition and my normal weakened physique

  I felt enormous pain as he bit into my cartoid artery on my neck

  Pain

  I tried to scream but the sound was blocked by the blood filling up my throat

  I tried to scream but the sound was blocked by the blood filling up my throat

  Is this it

  Is this it

  Am I finally going to meet my end

  Am I finally going to die

  Is this the end

  Is all the pain and suffering going to cease

  Is all the pain and suffering finally coming to an end

  I truly hope so from the depths of my heart

  I hope so

  He he

  Is that another voice

  I thought as my consciousness slipped away

  I'm glad it's ending; I thought as I succumbed to death
