He reached for my head and I reared back startled. “No! Don’t!”

He paused and looked at me. “What’s wrong? I won’t hurt you. I just want to see your memories and what’s going on inside that mind of yours.”

My eyes were wide and scared. “Don’t okay. Just don’t! That would be a very, very bad idea right about now! Don’t ask me why. I don’t know… but I do know it would be very unwise to do so. Not to mention that the idea that someone can do that is freaky enough in and of itself! That to the side just trust me that that would be a really BAD idea! Give me some time. I swear you can read my memories backward, forward and sideways later but please not just now!.”

I cringed and whimpered. Then something was probing and poking at my mind but from the inside. It felt like electrical probes sending current along the raw and bloody channels that had been carved into my mind but I couldn’t scream. I couldn’t even writhe. I felt his presence like that thing before that had probed and stabbed at my mind only inside the seal protecting my mind. I couldn’t get rid of it and it hurt, it hurt so much. Then it was gone and I lay there panting, tears streaming down my face.
