RENPET CHAPTER 2

'KHPR'


Mike stumbled out of his daydream when he almost
lost his balance making a sharp turn around a corner. The
constant running widened the holes in his sneakers and
made it difficult to get sure footing. All the metal parts of
his clothing intensified with heat, giving off a slight scent
of burning flesh wherever they contacted his skin. He
focused on those areas with whatever bit of intention he
wasn’t using to keep running and stay conscious.
In the next moments he felt some relief from the areas
of singed skin, the absence of pain boosted his morale.
Mike visualized the thugs that were chasing him. He could
see in his mind’s eye where their footsteps hit the pavement
and felt the vibrations of their feet along with their
proximity to him. He thought about their feet being
bound and unable to move. He focused somewhere deep
inside himself that the possibility could reach outside of
his being and come true. Inside his head he heard a pop
followed by a high pitch ringing, they stopped moving.
The heat wave that engulfed his body began to waver and
before long the sun’s relentless attack ceased.
He kept running for another seven blocks and
stopped in a park. He dragged himself over to a tree and
passed out......

RENPET Chapter 3

Endurance

He resorted to writhing on his belly across the floor using
the strength of his hips and lower torso to move about
There was no other way Mike could escape. In his
anguish Mike realized he was dreaming. Too many things
just happened that would have ordinarily been too
excruciating for him or anybody to stay conscious.
In addition to this, he knew that Kenitha’s tentacles could
not be seen by the normal eye when conscious, so how
could he see them now? Also, he kept hearing in the back
of his mind,‘The Blackman is God. The maker the owner.’,
that was Shakuan’s thoughts seeping through.
"Kenitha must be using Shakuan’s gift of sight to
locate me, heh.” “She’s so sloppy but I guess that’s to my
advantage,” thought Mike, which Kenitha would have
heard if she wasn’t so reckless.
Mike knew that all he needed to do was re-affirm that
he was in a dream and he would wake up. Even though he
was not literally being torn to pieces and bleeding to
death, he could not take any more punishment. If he were
to lose consciousness in this dream-state then he would lose his life.
His connection to his body would be cut-off
leaving his spirit to float in the void. As if that wasn’t
enough to digest, Kenitha did something strange to him
through her link with him.......
