"You are a sick person. You are insane."
"Or what? The FBI? Hahaha! You can't stop me, Felix. This is my game. My rules! Everything has gone exactly how I wanted, besides one minor snag."
"Which was?"
"Oh I can't tell you that, my boy. Haha."
"I won't let you keep messing with me. You will pay for this."

Correction in bold that kind of confused me on the first read through
Agreed completely. Before you guys got Melanie as your girlfriend, you picked every option for her. Now that she's your girlfriend, you immediately ditched her for Rose? I'm still picking this anyway, but I doubt it's going to help save her.

OMFG. I'm f'ucking raging like the f'ucking fist of the north star.
[x] check out stores Melanie likes.
Rose is such a annoying b'itch. I can't imagine having a mother like that.
I find something curious about all this voices stuff though. Why the voices can't choose an option that involves slaughtering this evil b'itch named Rose? On a more serious note, I agree with BTA that some backstory is already set up, and we are not the ones to blame.
I'm sorry to say that the way the story is going makes me mad.
"I said LEAVE ME ALONE. If you stupid voices had never existed my life would have been just fine! Why do you feel the need to force me to do things? Why can't you stay quiet forever? WHY? WHY?? THIS IS MY BODY. I AM ME! NOT YOU!"
Despite the great conflict raging inside him, Felix accepts the latest decision made for him and starts eagerly checking Melanie's favorite stores. "Did you see a girl with long brown hair wearing a yellow shirt in here recently?" Felix frantically asks the woman behind the counter. "No...sorry. Is everything alright?" she asks. Felix runs out to the next store he knows Melanie talks about. He asks the same question in several stores, but he strikes out every time. "Melanie, dangit... I'm sorry," he says as he runs through the mall.
In Nicholas' car with him is Valerie, Hudson and their prisoner, Chad. Hudson sits next to Chad in the back, never taking his eyes off him. Valerie notices right away when Nicholas turns a strange direction. "Where are you going?" she asks. "Don't worry. I'm low on gas, and I always use the station over here," he replies, calmly. "You couldn't have done this before coming? God," she complains. "It won't take long. Don't worry," he smiles.
Just about ready to break down and scream, Felix goes out to the parking lot to check his car. He curses himself for not coming out to look sooner. As he gets closer, he sees Melanie standing next to his car, crying. He runs over to her. "Melanie..." Felix moves in to try comforting her. She pushes him away.
"You really are an idiot. Like I didn't always suspect something was different about you? Are you stupid? Can't you trust me? What? Did you think I'd see you as a freak and run away?"
"Melanie, I didn't think..."
"Or those voices or whatever didn't tell you to tell me."
"Well I would have had to if they told me to..."
"So it's a decision you actually could have made for yourself and chose not to? Honestly you're so stupid."
"I'm sorry. Can we talk about it now?"
"Actually I think I'm the stupid one. What kind of girl would stick by you? You treated me so horribly for so long. What's your problem? Then you suddenly change again? And look at all this crap surrounding you. God it's me that's stupid..."
"You're not stupid. I need you beside me, Melanie. I need your help getting through all of this."
"So that's why you can't even confide in me? I had to find out from that damn cruel woman?"
"It was a terrible mistake... I won't keep anything from you again..."
Melanie starts crying again and Felix holds her.
"I've always loved you Felix... I can't stop even if I want to. I don't know what's wrong with me..."
"Nothing's wrong with you Melanie. I love you too."
"How can I even trust that... I thought I did something wrong all those years. I couldn't figure out why you started hating me... How can I know you won't just snap like that again?"
"I can learn to shut out these stupid voices... She said my dad learned how... I won't ever let them take you from me again. They are the ones that brought me back to you..."
"But why? What's going on in your head?"
"I wish I knew..."
Melanie finally stops crying and kisses Felix. Overhead, the cloudy sky starts pouring rain over their loving embrace. They continue kissing as though the rain soaking them doesn't even exist in their world. "I'm sorry..."
"Dammit, just what we need right now. Rain," Valerie moans. "Either of you need to use the bathroom while we're here? It's a long drive," Nicholas asks. "I'm fine," Hudson replies shortly. Valerie considers it and nods. She gets out of the car and walks to the gas station restroom. "I probably should too, while I'm thinking of it," Nicholas says; "Can you handle Chad here?" Hudson nods, clearly frustrated at the time wasting. Nicholas heads to the restroom.
Felix and Melanie sit in the car together as the downpour continues full force. "Wow, that really came out of nowhere..." she comments. Felix tells her about his unique mind as best he can. Melanie nods a lot, almost as if she suspected a lot of it from the beginning. "It's so terrible...the feeling when they make me do something I don't want to. It's like I'm a prisoner in my body sometimes..." Felix tells her. "Why did they make you drive me away..." she asks, remembering painful memories. "It was that letter my mom left us. I don't know what it did, but the voices suddenly gained great control over my life. And they were really untrusting, cruel ones..." he cringes. "What changed recently?" she asks. "It's like they've changed...become different minds..."
Nicholas goes to the back where the restrooms are tucked away. He enters the women's bathroom and ducks inside an open stall. He readies his fiber wire and gloves and takes one last deep breath. He hears the other stall door open. He hears the water from the sink. He lunges from the stall, catching Valerie by surprise from behind. He tightens the cruel wire around her neck and pulls, every ounce of his strength flowing into it. Moments later, she dies before even being able to make a sound. Nicholas drags her limp body into a stall and locks the door. He smiles as he removes his gloves and casually walks back to the car.
Realizing it's already past noon, Melanie suggests they go get something to eat. Felix agrees, but notices his car's tank is low. "Dang, looks we'll have to fill before heading home," he says. "What do you want to do?"
[] Eat at the food court in the mall.
[] Drive to a restaurant in town.
[] Go to the gas station first.
What are the voices inside Felix's head telling him to do?
Spoiler
lol you guys. Like I'd kill Melanie when the fun is just starting. I don't pick delicious apples until they're ripe.
Me while reading the recent posts:
Love you guys.
And FYI, the only BAD END is Felix dying. Anyone else can die. Anything else can happen.
BAD COP! BAD BAD COP! *smacks Nicholas with a newpaper* I hope Chad hasn't used the voices on him... yet it seems so uncharacteristic of Nicholas to do something like that. Or is he involved with the whole NewFuture project as well?
If Nick and Chad come after you then it's less likely they'll be able to cause a big scene since you're at a large place with so many witnesses around.
