Garroth's POV:

"Garroth?"

"Ya baby brother?"

"Travis, Dante, and I are going to see Travis's dad for the weekend. call me if something happens to Vylad ok?"

" Sure baby brother, but Vylads fine!" Zane mumbles something under his breath."What was that Zane?"

"Nothing was leaving in the morning bye."

"Bye?" Zane walks out the door and heads home.

"What was that?"

"Nothing Vylad. It was just Zane."

"What was he doing here?"

"He just wanted to tell me that he was visiting Travis's dad for the weekend with Travis and Dante."

He looks away."Really? Thanks for telling me Garroth." He walks back upstairs to his room.

"Somethings off...Right?"

~At Terry's house that weekend~

Travis's POV:

My dad answers the door and says "Hello?" Then out of nowhere Zane punches him. I flinch and close my eyes waiting to hear a smack. It doesn't happen. I open my eyes. He didn't even flinch! instead, he was holding Zane's fist in his hand. we all look confused. Then Zane breaks out into tears and falls to the floor and my dad releases him revealing a broken wrist.

"Dad! What is wrong with you!" I kneel down and hug Zane protectively.

"Travis I'm..sorry... I tried to hold him back but.." There's silence and I look up. What I see is not my dad. What I see is a man that looks like my father.

"Who are you." I say getting up ready for a fight."Your not my father. my father would never do this to anyone! Especially not Zane." Dante was moving Vylad into the circle outside the house while he was still knocked out.

He just smirks at me."your a smart boy. Strong too. Just like your father. He's been holding me back for so long. Now I know why. To protect his son. Like his father never could for him. I ware I should have taken over him years ago. Now.Travis. your next!" He jumps on me and starts punching me.

"LUCINDA DO IT!" She nods and Dante Tackles him and gets him off me and gets him outside.We get him in the circle that Lucinda drew and starts chanting to get Gene out of Vylad, and whatever it was inside my father out of him. There is a bright light and then just as suddenly as it appeared it was gone.

"What happened?" Vylad was waking up! We all rush to him and hug him. we hug him for like 2 minutes and part.

"what's going on? Not that I don't like hugs, but why are we at Travis's dad's house?"

"I'll explain everything when we get home," Dante says and Looks at us. We all nod increasingly and He leaves in his car with Vylad under his arm and they leave.

"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!! YOU IDIOTS!! NOW THERE'S NO STOPPING HIM!" We all turn around fast and see my father in the circle yelling.

"What are you talking about----"

Zane's POV:

"DON'T YOU DARE TALK TO US LIKE WARE FAMILY!" I look over to Travis not hearing anything. "Travis?" He doesn't respond."TRAVIS?! TRAVIS!! YOU SON OF A BITCH WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO TRAVIS?!"

"Zane. He didn't do anything to him. from the looks of things he's been..Passed."

"What are you talking about Lucinda?" She examines Travis and looks him in the eyes."It looks like-" He snaps out of it and starts choking me."Travis* gasp*This* gasp* isn't *gasp* you *gasp* let me * gasp* go."

"TRAVIS STOP!"

I grab his hand and he looks me in the eyes. he speaks and what I hear is not Travis it's more of a demonic voice." finally I'm out of that old man. time to carry out my plan." I step back.

"You're not my Travis."

"NO FUCK SHERLOCK!" Lucinda says trying to claw Travis's hand off her throat. He throws her to the wall. She hits it pretty hard with a thud. 'she didn't get up' my eyes widen and I look from her to Travis. He looks at me and starts coming towards me. I back up as far as I can until I hit the wall. I close my eyes awaiting my fate. 'This is it, Zane. He's going to kill you! The only man you ever loved is going to kill you and go after your family, your friends, everyone.' "no."

"WHAT WAS THAT?"

"NO!!"

"you think you can fight back?! HA don't make me laugh. You sound just like Terry when I made him kill his father. Just like I'm about to do to Travis!"

" You can't do this! its wrong!"

"Does it look like I give a damn?! I've been doing this to the Valcrom family since Irene died! do you even know who I am?!"

"I don't know or care you are!"

"You don't know?! HA no wonder you stood up to me." He grabs me by the neck and holds me up in the air choking me. "IM THE DARK FUCKING LORD YOU FUCKING IDIOT! I CREATED HELL FOR IRENE'S SAKE! IM THE MEANING OF FEAR! I COULD SNAP YOUR NECK LIKE A TWIG RIGHT NOW!"

"You wouldn't."

"HA and WHY NOT?"

"I'm Travis's damn husband!"

"Ha, so that's why he's fighting me! HA well. I guess I need you then."

"Ha, you need me alive."

"Ya but once you've outlived your usefulness then your dead!" I nod fast and he looked deep into my eyes. Then the world went black and things started flowing through my mind. Things that I haven't thought about in years. Things that...I never over should have thought about.'Kill kill kill kill kill all of them. Aphmau, Aaron, Garroth, Vylad, Dante, Kaitlyn, Kawaii~chan, Laurence, Lucinda, everyone you know. kill all of them. Serve Travis. Live for him. Kill for him. Die for him.'

~Travis's brain~

~internal struggle with Mickle~

"GET OUT OF ME!!"

"I'm in control know. you're so much stronger than I thought you'd be. your father would be proud. well, he would be If I weren't about to make you kill him."

"Why are you doing this?!"

"Why?! HA you'll see soon enough." I punch him and miss him. He catches my hand with a cloud of a purple smock.

"What are you?!"

"you'll see soon enough. my son."

"NOOOOOOO YOU CAN'T DO THIS!! YOU'LL NEVER GET AWAY WITH THIS!!!"

"Travis ma boy. don't you get it? I already have!" Then he was gone. leaving me chained to a wall in darkness. locked away forever in the darkest part of my consciousness silenced for eternity.
