Beware when the great God lets loose a thinker on this planet.

I might very well be going insane. It happens. In this line of work, the things we see, the extremes; although this is not triggered by work, no. It’s Lucifer. I feel myself everyday step closer and closer to the brink. Every day I don’t see, every day I don’t feel his touch… I feel myself slipping.

I come to slowly opening my eyes and blinking them against darkness, and pain. I smell cooked meat and when I go to move my arm the pain rockets through me and I cry out a little and lay it back down. The smell is me.

I chuckle even though it hurts. I cooked myself. How about that. I don't know where I am but I feel it, all that power and dark energy coursing through me.

Jared. I have to find him. I'm not sure how when I'm a crispy critter. I can feel myself healing but it's slow. I must have resurrected.

With great difficulty and biting back the pain I manage to sit and the more I think about Jared the more this place I'm in seems to light up and it looks like his place but I know it's not. It flickers in and out, darkness and shadows moving over the walls.

I am sitting on the end of a bed. That much movement has already weakened me and my body refuses to move anymore. It will take time for the resurrection to fully take affect I know this but I want to make sure Jared is safe.

I ponder on what to do then think maybe I should poke around and see if the darkness has the answer. I close my eyes and concentrate on bringing Jared to me.

The pain has intensified the past few minutes. The more I fight the wall the more it rips at me. Suddenly the wall is engulfing me! I cry out but every movement rips and tears at my body.

My mind concentrates on Tomek trying to make my last thoughts of him. Soon I can no longer breath or see. But then there is a pulling sensation and I am dropping from the wall. I catch myself and look around. It's - it's my room.

I look around and there on the bed... oh no! What have they done to him!?

"Tomek!"

Quickly I move to him but he is burned and in pain. I don't dare touch him for fear of hurting him more. I kneel in front of him, "Tell me what to do? How can I help you?!"

[t0m3k_s]

I smile at him but I'm sure it comes out more as a grimace as I lift my arm up and the pain intensifies. "You can't." I want to touch his face, make sure, this isn't just a hallucination but then, my fingers, they are burnt and charred.

I put my hand back down. "I have to finish the resurrection process. I had to make sure you were safe." I feel myself starting to tip to the side, my body weak and needing me to just lay down and let it finish. "I'll be fine soon." I chuckle and then wince as I put my hand out to stop me going over. "You like my new place?"

[__jared__]

I move closer to stop him from tipping, "I don't understand Tomek. What did he do to you? Lucifer took me, did he do this to you?"

This looks like my place, but there is something about it... something isn't quite right. Who burned him? Why was Lucifer after me?

[t0m3k_s]

It takes me a second to realise he doesn't understand. I'm fast becoming weaker and I know I have to give my energy back to the process.

"Our deal, he wanted payment. To find him, Gabriel, would have taken too long, couldn't let him hurt you. I paid with me."

I hang my head and close my eyes. "I need to rest."

[__jared__]

I close my eyes and hang my head. This is what they were trying to do with Dan, but now Tomek paid with himself - for me. I open my eyes and move closer. I lift my arm and gently touch my fingertips to his hair.

"Rest my love, I will be right here. I will always be right here for you, always."

I huff out a laugh as I fall forward unable to hold myself up any longer. I don't fall far. I feel him against me and the contact makes my body sing with agony but I wouldn't want to be anywhere else at this point.

"I guess you can trust me after all." Then I give into it and let myself fall back into the abyss of darkness knowing that for once I'll have someone there for me when I come to.
