Chapter 18: Vibrations
Harper
If I can't figure out how to use this "thing" inside of me, and figure it out quickly. I will be stuck here forever. I know I don't have long. That much is a sure thing. That creepy man who calls himself Mr. Coulter, actually Nicolas, is just a tall, slender creep. I'm not too fond of the way he looks at me. He has the look of a desperate man, and that makes me think he is growing impatient. He wants something from me, and I can't provide it. Because I honestly cannot, but even if I could, I am sure I wouldn't give him a god damn thing. So what now? Even if I try and practice, if I try to meditate, to focus my mind, they will just stop me. I have this fear of closing my eyes of trying to focus. It is instinct now, muscle memory. My body is restraining itself from concentrating, so I know they have been stopping me. I just don't know-how. There is nothing in this room to help me. Although I feel hopeful to remember more, that hope is quickly falling away as I sea
LenySoulcalibur Do you meditate? Meditation is an extremely powerful practice and very therapeutic. Do you think Harper will make it our of the building safely?

Harper's Vector Chapter 1: Where Is My Body?
I wake up in a body that is not my own. As I open my eyes and I look around the room, frantically shifting eyes back and forth that do not belong to me. I am frozen. Harper thinks to herself: “Where am I? “Whose body is this? Shit! Am I dreaming? If so, this is a freaking nightmare. I think I must be paralyzed and stuck in this dream, this nightmare, this paranormal realm?! I move hands and feet that I know do not belong to me. It is as though I am stuck inside a body that does not belong to me. It is like, I was forced into skin that does not fit right, and it is now that I realize I need to worry. That this is not a dream. Dreams are not this real, and I want to lay here until I wake up. I’ll wake up; I know I will. People always wake up from their nightmares. Just like the monsters, they never grab your feet when they hang out from the blankets. Demons are not real. But as soon as I tell myself to just lay here in this stranger's bed and wait for the su
Harper's Vector Chapter 2: The Light Above The Door
Harper I don’t know what time it is, what day it is, let alone what year it is. How am I even able to comprehend time when I am at a loss on who I am. I feel crazy! I am in a body I know with every particle of my being just is not mine, but how do I explain that to someone? How do I even know how such a thing is possible? I am back on the bed that also, is not mine. I know what my next move should be. It should be to start looking around. Gain more information about my surroundings. My head is a cloud. A cloud so high in the sky it is practically cloud nine. It feels like mush. Like this body, small and weak. My brain is not processing like I need it too and for some reason it this all seems purposeful, and it is starting to piss me off. Every time I try to remember, it’s like a wave of pain rushes over my entire body. It is as though my brain is asking me not to remember. I start small. I look at what I am
Harper's Vector Chapter 3: Heavy
Harper I feel heavy. Like I have been hit by a bus. It has to be close to what it feels like being hit by a bus going thirty in a fifteen zone. My bones ache—my fingers and toes tingle. My eyeballs are sore. I haven’t even opened my eyes yet, and I already do not want to start the day or the evening. I have no clue of the time. I must have partied too hard last night and was slipped something in my drink. I don’t remember anything. A.N.Y.T.H.I.NG, except how to spell adequately, and that’s something. What is that horrendous smell? Is it me? Harper breathes in the air. Taking it in the room and the strongest aroma is her. The smell is mostly urine. This girl has peed her herself. The second strongest smell is bodily odor. When did I last shower? Nails are chipped black, and they are dirty. I can tell they are not working hands. They are too soft. Fingers are slender. Does her family miss her? Whoever is keeping her, I mean me, is disgusting. Lo
Harper's Vector Chapter 4: Missing Harper
Rowan I lay on an empty mattress in an abandoned house on an open freeway bypass in the middle of North Carolina. The face I wear now doesn't matter. It is not my own; none of them are. Not really. Only she knows my most authentic look, and she is there in the darkroom. I am cold. Not just because there are no windows in this home, but because I have lost my soulmate. We have been side by side for centuries, wearing many faces together, and now she is lost to me. How they found me, I'll never figure it out. Why she gave herself up for me, I'll never forgive myself for her sacrifice. But I know I will fight to get her out, to get her back, to get back at them. I will die without her, and we still have so much work to do. So many others to meet and so many others to awaken. Life is pointless without love, without meaning. I wandered like so many do for 30 years until she found me. I was so lost. I only cared about partying and having fun. I wa
Harper's Vector Chapter 5: Déjà vu
Harper My head is pounding. I feel like my eyes are going to explode from the massive migraine pulsating inside my temples. I feel like I can’t move. I try wiggling. They slowly move. Next, I move my fingertips. Check, they also move—all good signs. I am staring at the ceiling and notice a small vent. I catch a glimpse of a small blinking light inside of the duct. My head is pounding so hard. It’s hard to focus on anything. Where am I? “hello,” I call out in a low, raspy voice that sort of cackles. I slowly hoist myself up into a seated position on the bed. The sheets are black. I have welted blisters on my arms. I push the sheets down, and sure enough, I have them on my legs. I lift my shirt halfway up, and I have three on my stomach. This is looking bleak. Every inch of my body hurts. Where am I? What’s my name? Focus! I grab my head, shake it in protest to remember something, anything. I see a face. It is beautiful; she is gorgeous. What is her n

Rick It’s only my first week on the job, and they put me on security detail on one of their most prized pieces. I don’t know what it is yet. But I hear it’s a big fish. We are low on staff. Two guys retired, and one got hurt on the job, so they pulled me over. I am top of my class and graduated with honors. Even still, they never move newbies over to the black building. Too top secret. But I know not to ask questions. do…as…you’re …told… I am given my badge number, 2541. That’s now my name here. 2541. We do not use words in the black building. We can’t have any criminals knowing who we are. I do not have much of a back story. I am, in essence, no one. Like many, I feel like I have no real purpose. So I’ve made my job my purpose in life, and I guess I am alright with that. I don’t have much choice. I'm not good at much else. Some people are unique, and I’m not one of them. On my first day on the job, I am to change the be
Harper's Vector Chapter 7: The Safe House
Rowan Watching the skyline as the sun rises. It's a beautiful color of oranges, reds, and a few purples. Looking up at such a beautiful thing makes everything in life seem so simple, so worth living. Like the bad things are just that, a bad thing one that can be overcome. Harper and I can overcome this, and when we do, we will be stronger in the end. They won't kill her. They need her. She is the eldest. I do not know when she was born precisely; she hates to talk about her past. She says it doesn't matter, and I never forced it. Because she is correct, the past doesn't matter. The only thing that truly matters is the present because the future doesn't exist either. I won't fail her. I can't forget her. I am scared, but I won't let that fear stop me. When I was younger, I always go by the saying that F.E.A.R. had two meanings: F.ace E.verything A.nd R.un Or F.ace E.verything A.nd R.ise
Harper's Vector Chapter 8: Private Television
Harper In shock at the mass growing in front of her, It is beginning to grow bigger. Her name must be Amelia Harper Edison, and that is comforting to know. Seeing this coagulated mass formation grow from a small one centimeter to one inch to one foot in seconds, the more she focuses on it is fantastic and the little worry some at the same time. But she has no fear. It is as if she is familiar with the mass. As if she has seen it before but does not remember... she reaches her hand out and places on arm into it, and it goes inside. But not out the other end. She removes her arm. It is still just an average arm. She then decides to make the mass bigger and grabs it at its' side,s and focuses, and begins to stretch it, imagining it as being putty-like. Now the group is about five feet wide and four feet tall. She stares through it. Staring through it, images start to surface. Are they memories playing on a private television reel just for me? I see myself with
