chapter 10

Adrian found himself all alone in a place which he could not pinpoint as it was both familiar and unfamiliar in many ways. It was a place very dear to him but it had very different vibes than the ones he was used to something very sinister loomed in the air. "Babe" Jessica calls out and starts walking towards him which makes Adrian very happy , he could not believe his eyes that the love of his life had called him with so much adoration and love. But just as Adrian bends a bit to hug Jessica she goes through him, which shocks Adrian he then tries to hold Jessica's hand but his hand just passes through Jessica's hand like a hologram , Jessica goes and hugs someone whose face is not clear from the place where Adrian is standing , when he tries to get a look at the man, he is shocked to see that the man had no facial features , then he sees two little girls clinging on to Jessica's legs calling her "mommy" , Adrian is not able to process what is happening or where is he and why is he in that place. "It hurts isn't it?, seeing her with someone else you feel angry but you are not able to do anything ?" a cackling voice taunts Adrian who tries to find the source of the sound but fails so instead he puts on brave upfront and asks "Who are you?, Where am I? " "Tsk Tsk what a shame! you could have been so powerful, you could have done great things, but alas you have gone too soft" the voice taunts him again and starts laughing "Answer me "bellows Adrian "Why my Adrian, Have you forgotten me soon? we just met in your garden" the voice hisses and shadowy form of a human appears in front of Adrian.

"What do you want from me?, Why are you always looming over my head these days?" Adrian questions the figure "I am you, You are me , I am a part of you that was separated from you by those people, they feared if we both were together there was nothing that could stop us from being the ultimate power in the world" the shadow whispers in Adrian's ears.

"Which people ? and what are you talking about?" Adrian asks confused.

"You will know in good time, you need to remember Adrian, you can not let them win again" it suddenly takes form of a dagger "in good time you will realize "it screeches and on top speed goes towards Jessica .

Before Adrian could fanthom what was happening the dagger plunges itself into Jessica's heart and vanishes in to air. Adrian rushes to Jessica and gathers her in his arms, " Babygirl , please stay with me "he whispers with tear filled eyes. "AA-Adrian iiiiI am sososo sorry" she croaks out and goes limp. "NOOOOO" Adrian bellows.

Adrian suddenly sits upright and finds himself covered in sweat and then he sees Robert barging in his room "What happened?" Robert asks concerned.

"Nothing" Adrian whispers dazed.
