I am Worried About You

-Baby Doll-

I’m afraid of what he’s going to do. He already is starting to suspect that something is up. His hounds are sniffing out tour scents. It’s only a matter of time until… Until…

No! I can’t think about that now! That isn’t going to help anyone. I need to refocus. Breathe in. Breathe out. Breathe in. Breathe out. Breathe in. Breathe out.

Right…

My other self and Masayuki have been moving along, but I am afraid they will have to go off-course. There isn’t much time for that. I wish I could help them, but there is so much I can do. Reaching out would draw too much attention. Still, I have to help them somehow.

I can help you.

What? I turned my head. He’s looking back at me. I tried to remember his name, but nothing came back. I do know that he is like me.

Your friends are looking for you, yeah?

Somebody is. I am not ready to decide if I can fully trust him yet. It looked too risky. Still, we don’t have much of a choice anymore.

Do you know how to reach out to someone?

It’s not as strong as yours, but I can help out. Just tell me what I need to do.

I froze. Were my powers… I pushed that out of my head as fast as I could. I’m going to need all of the help I can get. I will worry about the details later.

Tell me what I need to do.

Breathe in. Breathe out. Breathe in. Breathe out. Breathe in. Breathe out. My bodiless form relaxed. I could see what I needed to do.

I am going to need you to listen closely. Here is what you need to do.

Okay.

I broke down and told my fellow captive what he needed to do to make this work.
