Telling Tales

Delirium didn't know where to go anymore, everywhere was wrong and it had gone so quiet. She preferred the screaming, she knew all about screaming but the silence was killing her. Delirium stumbled through the trees towards her home, the asylum. "Barnabas," Delirium called out, the german shepherd following her swiftly. He wouldn't let her out of her sight, not until it was safe.

She couldn't find Samara, John, Abby and oh god... her pirates. "Ragetti?" Delirium called out, approaching their home. "Pintel? Roshaun!"

Delirium turned at the sound of a crack, a twig breaking behind her. She was dead, she was dead, oh gods it would hurt. It would..."Wha-" Barnabas barked a warning at the man as Delirium stared at him confused. He wasn't her pirate. "What are you doing here?"

His voice was like acid to her, every word he said just enraged her even more. How dare he be indignant, how dare he try and tell her what to do when he'd murdered her pirate. Delirium shrieked something uncomprehensible as he pulled her hands away from his face, holding on to her wrists tightly.

"Get oFf mE!" Delirium screeched, trying to pull away from him. Delirium kicked out with her legs, trying to hurt him. She wanted him dead, her life didn't matter anymore- she just wanted him dead.

She had every right to be angry. She had every right to hate him with all she could, and whilst already felt a writhing guilt for what he had done, restraining her seemed even worse. Lying to her, and when, though her own accord Delirium had discovered the truth he was forced to restrain her, clutching her wrists though firmly, though he could not find it within himself to be too forceful with the distressed girl.

He couldn’t apologise again. She didn’t want to hear any of that, he’d already apologised so often it seemed useless now, all he could do was to was stop her from actually hurting herself in her thrashing anger. Her kicks caught his shin on the left and he winced. “Delirium ..you must calm down.” He felt utterly useless in the situation, everything he said was useless at least, and he was sure all he could do would be to restrain her until her hysteria had faded enough that she could be taken to her home.

"nO! nO! muRDERer, i'LL kiLL yoU! TuRN Your skiN insiDe OUT, kEEP yOU ALivE AND iN paiN." Delirium said, wrenching one arm loose and punching Norrington hard in the face. She hit out at him, limbs flailing in anger and rage. She no longer cared anymore, all she could see was the hate and pain. Delirium kicked out as hard as she could. "GeT OFF mE!"
