I stared longingly at her, even though I could hear her, she still looked dead.

I'm not dead!

[T.O.L.I.]

Sorry! sorry! I forgot that ur in my head!

well please dont think anything really bad!

[Nathan]

((Uhh ya. they didnt put fake names he used fake blood.)))

[[deleted user]]

((they still have to put fake names.))

[Riley]

Sorry. I thought, but I had a few questions to ask.
Cari? I began.

[[deleted user]]

Yes? she asked in that beautiful voice of hers, even though she was speaking through her thoughts.

[T.O.L.I.]

where did elsie get the object anyway?, i know you two are close and you were with her when she found it I thought to her

well...thats a bit of a complicated story...

[[deleted user]]

Tell me, we have time, and no one else can hear us. I begged.

[T.O.L.I.]

fine

[T.O.L.I.]

((so whos gonna tell it? u or me?))

[[deleted user]]

((idk, i'm clueless.))

[T.O.L.I.]

((kk ill do it, this may take a minute so hang on!))

[[deleted user]]

((okaday.))

[T.O.L.I.]

Come on! I finally thought.

ready?

yea

Here we go, so as you know me and elsie have been together for a long time while living on the streets, one day when elsie discovered the mystery about her sister she started dragging me around the city trying to find 'clues' so I followed. Then after a while we came across this small little squat house as a lead, supposedly her sister had once lived there, so we knock and a little old woman answers, she thrusts the object at us and whispers "this will help you but beware they will try to come find you!" and then she slammed the door in our faces and she wouldn't answer the door again. And then about a few days later we met up with you guys and that must have been years ago! So thats the basic story!

I look at elsie sadly, and then at Cari's body, they had had a tough life, at least i had parent at one point!

i can hear u

sorry

[[deleted user]]

When do you think you'll be able to actually talk?

[T.O.L.I.]

oh, soon, i really hope, its kind of strange having my mind awake but not my body!

[[deleted user]]

I thought for a moment, You aren't in a coma are you?

[T.O.L.I.]

no!

good. I look over at her body and smile, then her body moves a little

here i come! i heard Crai say in my mind

[Riley]

Cari? I asked again.

Yes?

How long has this been going on? The mind reading, I mean.

Ever since I met you.

That would explain quite a bit. As soon as we met, I felt like she knew what I was thinking.

One more thing. I asked hesitantly.

Yeah?

Did anyone else know about this?

Cari hesitated in her thoughts.

Jay.

[Riley]

Cari tried to stand up. I instinctively advanced.

[T.O.L.I.]

I grabbed her and held her, she smiled up at me and i smiled back, thankfully she is ok.

[Riley]

Of course I'm okay, stupid.
She thought, breaking the magic.
"Wait," I said aloud. "If we need the object to hear each other's thoughts...but I thought Jay had lost it!"
Cari grimaced.
I have to tell you something, but it's going to take a while. She said.
I have all the time in the world. I replied.
Cari began.
When we found all of you guys, Elsie and I didn't know if we should tell anyone. Since Jay acted like the leader, we decided to tell him. I don't know if you've noticed, but he's been acting very shifty. When I ran away, I tried to convince Elsie to come with me, but she didn't believe that, well, Jay was about to betray us. I followed him one time, and overheard him talking with this man. He told him about the, well, thing. So I knew I had to run away, but the man saw me. I tried to convince Elsie, but, as I told you before, she didn't believe me. So I just gave her the note and ran away. I took the object with me and left a decoy I had made. I gave the real object with Thomas. I think we should be safe for now, because I left a decoy in the room. Hopefully the cops think that it's the real one.
She finished, searching my face, seeing how I'd react.
Please believe me! I heard her say in her mind.

[T.O.L.I.]

I look at the ground for a few moments i believe u, but its so terrible!

[Riley]

I know. she said, and also whispered aloud.

[Riley]

Jay. My role model, he betrayed me. Joanne, Adam, they were dead because of Jay. What about Lily? Was she in on it? It was hard to be sure.

[[deleted user]]

Where's Jay? I asked coldly. I knew I had to talk to him alone.

[Riley]

Cari could hear the ice in my voice.
No Tom! She thought firmly.
I won't! Don't worry. There's just a few things I have to talk to him about. I replied, shocked that she would even think that I would do something like that.
Cari bowed her head.
"Fine." she snapped. "But I'll know if anything is going on."

[Riley]

((Hey everyone. I'm opening a group topic called The Object: Edited. Could you go there to see everything put together and the grammar and spelling corrected. If there's any detail you want to add, or format stuff, tell me.))

[T.O.L.I.]

((erm, i cant find it!))

[Riley]

((I just put it on! Sorry, took a long time to edit it, and it's still not perfect.))

[T.O.L.I.]

((tis all right, but i love this story soooo much we r really doin great!))

[[deleted user]]

((it's perty good, but we need to know where we're going with it, kind of, or else it's going to die like all of the stories in Let's All Write Stories group.))

[Riley]

((I think that later they try to leave the states under false names. But they get arrested, then we can tell a little bit about what happens in jail. Also, I think Jay and Lily should betray them even more than they have already. They could break out of jail and try to find Elsie's brother but then...something happens.))

[T.O.L.I.]

((yes i like that idea except, they have to find elsie's sisters boyfriend to find elsies sister, dont they?))

[Riley]

((Yeah...but there's always the off chance that they broke up or something...))

[T.O.L.I.]

((yea but he still might know where she is...))

[Nathan]

I took a step toward Jay, but then something stopped me. I couldnt move! I glanced at Cari and she smiled. 'I havent told u the best part!'SHe thought to me. 'You can control objects with teleconescious!' ((sry i dont know how to spell that!)) Wow, so I have teleconicous too! thought to myself. 'I can still hear you' thought Cari. 'he he. I know! Lets play some games with this!' I replied in thought. I lifted Cari a few inches off the ground. Then i lifted everyone else. I could sense Cari was trying to think to me but I was shutting her off. "hey what is going on!!!" Elsie yelled. Jay had a look of horror on his face. He new what I was doing. I read his mind: 'NO! THis is Cari's..... Thing!' I thought how far this could go. I tryed to erase something from Jays mind. I didnt no if it had worked, but then I could see clearly what I had done. Jay dropped Lily out of his arms and walked away from her. I heard Elsie talking to Cari. 'You told him about it! Do you know what he is doing!'. OH NO! I thought.Elsie could hear me but Cari couldnt (I was still blocking her off). 'Cari,' Elsie thought to her,'he made Jay forget about how he loved Lily!'. Maybe I had just found out about my new power, but I was definatly stronger with it than Cari or Elsie. Maybe Evan Thomas....

[T.O.L.I.]

thomas looked am me "stop" and he stared so terribly, I dropped eveyonre immediatly

[Riley]

"Tom." Lily said, horrified. "What have you done?" Jay looked at her, his eyes empty.
It hit me full force what I had done. I had ruined someone's life. Just like my dad.

[Nathan]

((wait, how does she know he did anything??)))

[Riley]

((Don't you think Jay would've told her? Through ESP?))

[Nathan]

((ya but he never touched the object))

[Riley]

((But we agreed that it works long distance, remember?))

[Nathan]

((what do u mean?? Lily and Jay never touched the object!)))

[Nathan]

((and also, can u say oh gosh instead of oh god?))

[T.O.L.I.]

((the object works with eveyone in a close perimeter!))

[T.O.L.I.]

"oh gosh" I whispered "i'm so sorry"

[Nathan]

((lol thnx. And i didnt know that. Ok. Im going to have to change my things))

[T.O.L.I.]

((ok))

[Riley]

"Lily..." I began, hoping that I could somehow make amends.
"Just go away Tom!" She shouted at me. The temporary contact I had with her eyes showed me that she was crying.
"Jay?" she began, still sobbing.
"Yeah Lily?" he said, still watching my horrified face. "Jeez Tom! You look like you just saw a ghost!"
I closed my eyes and held a clump of dirt in my hands. It slowly filtered out.
"Jay, do you remember me?" Lily asked.
"Of course I do...you seem familiar, and I know your name... I just don't know...how."
Lily sobbed.
"Jay! You and I...we...we..." Then she suddenly took out a pocket knife and held it to Elsie's neck. She was no longer crying.
Cari advanced but was suddenly thrown ten feet into the air. She came crashing down into the earth and I rushed towards her.
"Cari!" I shouted, hoping that it would revive her. She didn't move though.
"Cari!" I shouted again. As I came closer I saw her neck at a strange angle. She had broken it.
I ran towards Lily, but Jay was already there.
"Let her go!" he said, his voice commanding.
"No!" Lily shrieked madly.
Tom! I heard Elsie's voice shout. Help me Tom!
"Lily..." I said in the calmest voice I could muster. I was surprised when Lily looked at me.
"What? Are you trying to make me leave her alone?! Haven't you seen it yet, Tom?! They're the traitors! Elsie and Cari were the ones that turned us in!"
I inhaled quickly. For some reason I believed her. But could she be controlling my thoughts? When Cari told me, was she controlling my thoughts?
This object was a lot more trouble than it was worth.
