Inside The Mind of Riley[/h1][/center]


When Riley appeared back in her house in Newberry Springs she looked around, she headed up the stairs searching for her parents. "Mom, dad where are you?" Riley asked, she searched throughout the whole house until she stepped into the living room, her eyes looking towards a dark figure sitting in a chair in the middle of her living room. [i]"Hello... Riley. It's nice to meet you.... Take a seat. We have a lot to discuss."[/i] The mysterious house guest said.

Riley stood there she wasnt sure who this person was, however she could tell he was another evo like herself. She went and sat down in the chair that had suddenly appeared in front of her. "Who are you?" Riley asked.
The dark figure did not answer the question at first. He remained silent for several moments. He knew his silence created an uneasy tension between the two, but it was of no concern to him.

"I'm a friend... I'm your friend, Riley. Now tell me, how did you [i]find [/i] me Riley? I think it's rather important for friends to share things with each other... isn't it?" The figure said, his voice deep, but sounded purposely distorted as if he was disguising everything about himself to Riley. "Tell me everything."
Riley crossed her arms over her chest, trying her best to try and see the figure's face this was making her feel very uneasy and uncomfortable. "I dont know.. last thing I remember being put inside a cell, and throwing a fit before falling asleep." Riley said hearing his voice being distorted on purpose further making her distrustful. "If you are a friend, then why not show me your face."

"Hmm, you peep into the lives of others at will... Why would I give you the pleasure." He said as he started to stand up. Once he did, he slipped off his hood, only to reveal the face of her father. "Let's get things straight. You want me to be your friend..."
Riley glared to see the face of her own father being used by the weird man in front of her and stood up from her chair and stared into his eyes. "You think I want to do that? When I sleep it randomly happens I have no control over that." Riley took a step back. "If you are my friend or want to prove it then show it."

"I can either be your friend..." The man turned to look out towards the window that was letting sunlight into the room. "Or your enemy!" The man turned to face Riley with Max's face this time. "You're not telling me everything! And if you don't,  you won't like what I do to you in your own mind!" The man teleporter in front of Riley to close the gap between them, but he did not touch her. "You used your power before you were knocked out. Why were you looking for me?!" The dark man said with Max's face still as his own.

Riley took another step back when The Dark Man's face quickly turned from her father's face and into the very man that turned her life upside down. Then he disapeared Riley quickly looked around to try and find him, until he suddenly appeared right in front of her causing Riley to scream in fear and fall down onto her back. "STOP!" Riley yelled suddenly as she stood up staring into the face of Max's. 

"Outside, i'm being held in a cell I dont know where somewhere in D.C these men hooked up to some chair and it forced me to use my ability to track every evo. I was not searching for you it was against my own will I dont even know who the hell you are!" Riley quickly turned away from The Dark Man. "My life is already fucked up as it is, my mother was killed, and my father injured. Then men who captured me framed me for it so if you dont believe me then go ahead and do whatever you want." Riley said looking over her shoulder at him.
Once Riley looked, the man was gone. She had told him whatever he needed to know at the moment. The house remained quiet and empty before his voice suddenly boomed through her mind. 

"As I said before.... I'm a friend, and I will free you from this life. I must free you of it in order to save everyone else... I apologize in advance Riley." And the dark figure was heard no more.
The moment Riley turned around the Dark Man was gone, she heard his voice once more and then his voice was gone leaving Riley alone once more. She wasnt sure if she could trust him or not. Riley quickly opened her eyes again only to find herself still in the high secruity cell where there were four guards standing outside she wasnt sure what to make of him yet and silently pased around her cell.
