Chapter 23 (Twisting Time, Truths, and Lies)
Angelina's P.O.V:
...
....
.....
"... Angie...! Wake... up!"
I crack my eyes open as my vision blurs everywhere. I hold my head into my hand as I sit back up straight. I blink as I turn to Nathaniel next to me. He sighs in relief as I look all around me. I sit on this bench as I stare at some kids in the park. I stand back onto my two legs off the bench under me as I stumble with myself.
"Hey Angie... Where do you think Clockwork went? With... Jana?"
"I don't know... but I know I'll find him eventually with her..."
I look all around me as a little girl bumps into me from behind. She yelps as she tumbles backwards, I spin myself around as I look at the little girl-. Wait... this is... me, I remember this is me back when I was around... maybe six or seven years old. She stands back onto her feet as 'younger me' stares up to me. My deep dark brown eyes into my perfect identical ones.
"S-Sorry ma'am!" 'I' exclaim to myself as I simply nod and I continue to blink. Is this some dream? A boy with red tomato like hair runs up next to 'younger me', with another girl behind him. Her long, deep dark brown hair flies in the air behind her as the two stop right in front of 'me', "Nathaniel! Janis! I was trying to look for you!"
"Oh... Janis and I were just drawing some flowers! Sorry, we didn't mean it!" Nathaniel exclaims to 'younger me' as 'Janis' next to him nods in agreement.
The three kids, with 'younger me' in the duo all hurry back into the playground. I drop my jaw as I slap myself with my jaw right back into place. Janis... Nathaniel... Why, can't I remember this?! This is clearly me with two other kids all friends together! So, if they are really good friends of mine, then... how can I forget all this? Also... this girl is too similar to the one in that small flashback a while back!
'... Maybe I need to ask my dad about all this when I can come home... But not now obviously...'
A sense inside myself shivers about as I hold my arms together. Something here definitely feels really off here. I turn away from the playground as I force my legs forwards. My 'new' Kwami pops out behind me as he sighs softly under his breath. I turn to him as his two fox ears bend downwards. I tap on top of his head as his ears spring back to life with his tail stiff in the air.
"Hey Nathaniel... you okay there?" I question my fox Kwami as he nods his head to me. A bit of a sheepish grin on him as I make a small 'huh?' under my breath.
"Y-Yeah I am! It's just... something was on my mind, but... you should just focus on saving Satoru and Jana from Clockwork!"
I hum to him as I run out the playground with Nathaniel on my shoulder for dear life.
'Come on Jana... Satoru... where's a sign to know where you guys are!?'
Clockwork/Tokumi's P.O.V:
"Listen— Whatever you are! Tell me where the hell is the Miraculouses! Cause clearly... you can't exist unless a Miraculous is still around! Your even lucky I got to release you from your prison just for you to tell me this! SO SPEAK UP ALREADY!"
I demand this grey bunny creature in front of me. It's arms cross at me as she keeps on a strong face, even though I clearly see all the temptations and fear in her glassy coat eyes. Her ears bend more deeper down as she makes a little 'hmph'.
"No way in your damn life I'm going to betray my wielder just like for you Clockwork! She's probably even right here to kick your ass!"
I swipe at the bunny creature as I grip onto her entire body, with her head out from the top of my fist. She stares at me as she still holds on a strong face. Even though her deep dark brown eyes leak some salty tears. I grin at her darkly as she still stares at me.
"Don't lie to me... your terrified out of your mind~ aren't you?"
"... I-I am! I am terrified I'll give you that, but no way I'm still going to make her give up her Miraculous for you! For Hawkmoth!"
"Heh... well, your really stubborn... but I'm going to both get there Miraculouses and my revenge by erasing Angelina out of existence!"
I take my fist with the bunny creature in my hand as I slam her body into the floor under my feet. She squeaks in pain as she scrambles up with her cotton tail up in the air. Her eyes stare at me as she holds her head with one of her 'hands'.
"I'm not letting you out of my sight..."
I reappear the hourglass with her inside it. However... I want to watch Angie fall to her knees, begging me to release her with tears down her eyes... so, I remove the sand from the top of her special prison. I kneel down to the creature in my hourglass cage as I open a drawer with some cloth inside it. I plop her inside as I slam the drawer shut.
I sigh as I walk into a separate room. With my dear Satoru tied onto a bed as he struggles from the chains. I grin at him as he spots me. Fear in his eyes as I place a fingertip over his mouth, a cloth over it as he squeezes his beautiful emerald green eyes shut.
"Shh... Don't be afraid Sato honey~"
He still struggles as he shakes his head away from my fingertip. Something inside me shatters as I undo the cloth over my boyfriends mouth. He gasps as he stroke a hand onto his side of his head.
"Come on Sato hon... we can be back together like we always should be~"
"... I-I'm not i-in love with y-you! I j-just w-want t-to say sorry t-to my boyfriend... h-he's t-the o-one I love! N-Not whoever the hell YOU a-are!"
"... S-Satoru? H-How could you? I... I THOUGHT YOU LOVED ME!... No matter... you'll always be mine... and I'm going to make sure that mark is permanent to everyone~"
