Fifty walks with death

Chapter 3

Everything's weird besides my power?

I open my eyes after a long nap, a long sleep. A white ceiling is the first thing I saw. My head still hurts.

I can remember anything before I passed out. But I am worried to the people that I hurt, I hope I didn't kill someone or anyone.

I was planning to reveal my power to the public for the people who wanted me will get me, but I am not expecting that I didn't need to do that because they already know, but how? I mean they didn't believe it the first time they heard about it, but what a changed of mind. I  just want to know what my past life is, I don't want people to get hurt because of me.

I thought I'm coming with the police but why I am inside a white room? I sit on the bed where I was laying and look around to my surroundings. It's all white even the bedsheet. There are a lot of TV's inside this room. I look to my wrist and I'm cuff at the bed side.

I need to free myself, I don't want to be in here, I don't feel the vibes being in here. I felt something is wrong! I look to the door when it open and a big tall man came inside. He gets the chair from the corner and sit there. "Who are you?" I ask him with a confident voice. "I am George Bernard." He answered "What do you want?" I ask him politely, but my face look angry. "I need you." He said. "Need me for what?" He drag the chair near me and cross his arm. His face was little familiar but I don't remember seeing him before.

"My brother is missing for almost a year because of his best friend. He disappeared before the explosion. So we believe that he's still alive." He said in a calm voice.

Explosion? Is he talking about the old President? And my uncle? I thought both of them died during the explosion? Or maybe I am just assuming and thinking that it's them he talking about.

"Who Brenner and the President? I thought they both died in the explosion." I said in a confuse tone even though I'm not sure if I am right.  "That's what we explain after, and I was talking about the old President." He answered honestly. He stood up and walk towards me. "And you are the only person who can help us find my brother Jack." He said. "So you don't know about me? You want me to meet you to help you find your brother? And not to tell me about what you knew about my family?" I ask in confusion. "What do you mean know about your family?" He ask back in confusion too. Now we are both confused on what we are talking about.

"I thought you know about my past! I-I you knew why I don't have memories! I thought you know about me. Why you didn't know? You wanted me since the first place! You are finding me when I am still unconscious in the hospital! Why you don't know about me and why you wanted me?!" I shout because I am upset! I thought today all of my question will be answered!

I just thought it! I just assume it!

I was shock when all the TV's turned off except for one. The president look to the TV's and look at me again. "See? You can do things that the others can't do!" He said like he didn't hear what I said. "I'm not going to help you! Just let me go!" I said. He suddenly laugh. Why every people I talk to laugh like there is something funny even though I'm serious?

"No. Sorry. You are a Brenner Jack! That means you know where my brother is!" He said. "I don't need your power to find my brother because what a telekinesis can do to find a missing person!" He added. "Then why do you want me?" I ask him. "Because of your power, your ability is the one who can help us find where the explosion came from. Because we believe that you, the bomb, and my brother are connected to each other. Your blood shared the same atoms with the bomb. " He answered. Atoms? Is he serious? What makes him think about that? "Don't tell me  you think your power is natural? Of course not! Your power came from a machine! Came from an energy, same energy from the bomb, causing the explosion years ago!" He said.

Maybe they're right, if my power came from a machine that used to build the bomb, then I'm powerful? Or maybe it's not true? Or maybe he is just one of those people who are insane?

"You know Jack, your uncle hide my brother! Kidnapped him for no reason, and the place where he is hiding my brother, is the place where he built the bomb! Where the secret laboratory placed!" He said.

So my uncle hid his brother? He hid his best friend to his brother. For what? Maybe to protect him? People can't just kidnap for no reason.

"If my uncle did that, maybe he has a reason, and he did not want you to know. Maybe he is protecting your brother from you! And how many percent are you sure that your brother was hidden to the place where the explosion came. Because as far as I know, it will destroy the place." I said and smiled in sarcastic way."Why are you defending your uncle. You didn't even know Fajardo, and the worst you didn't even know your past. You don't have an idea about the Brenner! You didn't even know who is your mother and father! So stop! Because you don't know everything. And percent you're asking? It's 99 percent." He said and walk out.

I took a deep breath and telling to myself that I don't need to listen to those words. But I can't, I really can't because it's true.

I don't know everything.

But why he really wanted his brother? If the old president was kidnapped. There are only two options to that. He's dead or he wasn't really kidnapped at all.  I was thinking about what he just said, my uncle build the bomb and there's a secret laboratory?

Okay, everything is weird besides my power. They tell a lie, for what? What's the reason? I suddenly look to the TV when it all open again. The screen of the TV's are building an image like it's a puzzle. I look around but there is no camera.

I look to my wrist and use my mind to free myself. And.... Boom, it's unlock. I walk towards the TV when I step on the remote. Why the remote is on the floor? I get the remote and click the off button, but it's not turning off. Instead, an image changed into a door.

Wait what?

Are they tricking me? I look back and saw the red envelope on the bed. Now I believe that there is something weirdness happening to me. Suddenly I remember the game called Blue Whale. The clue! That's right the clue where I'm going to find a door that when I open, I will be inside the game. Is it real? The game? I felt like I was inside a fantasy movie or in a virtual reality movie. I look to the TV's again. What if, this is the door? Am I gonna escape this place?

"What are you doing?" I was shock when I heard a voice at my back. I look and saw him standing there at the door. "How'd you escape?" He asks. "I have a power right? I can control things with my mind Mr. George Bernard or whatever your name is, I hope you won't forget that." I said. "Guards!!" He called the guards so I shut the door using my mind. "I will find the truth! And once I found the truth! I'm going to tear you apart like how you tear my uncle to death!" I said.

Does he think I'm stupid for not knowing that he killed my uncle?! The police said it when he is cuffing me! That he died when he is trying to free himself.

"I didn't kill Fajardo! He did. " He said while walking back because I am walking slowly towards him.  "Really? Then why don't you just tell me the truth and not the lies?" I said. "Because we had plans!"I was shock when he punch me. I fall down to the ground while holding my cheeks because I lose balance, I didn't expect that! Did he just punch a teenager?

The door open and three guards came in. I stand and run towards the TV's but one of the guard pull my shirt so I shove the guards' chest and run towards the TV's again and I was shock when my hand goes through the screen and I felt the doorknob with my fingers. I twist the doorknob for the door to open. When the door open, one guard pull my other arm again but I am stronger than him so I jump through the screen directly inside the door. On that moment, I'm inside the televisions and my surroundings change from white walls to a dark place and I felt my soul lift out to my body. "Aaahhh" I scream when I saw the ground. After a second I felt my body punch the ground that make me pass out.
