Feb. 28th, 2005 05:14 pmSleeping. Bonzo is sleeping. And dreaming. It's not a peaceful dream.
In his room, stirring up Bernard and the others...except that he sees it from some strange third-person perspective...from the doorway.
Then he sees back further, punching Ender and knocking him over for disobeying orders.
Then, even further back...getting command. The power trip that it had been.
Then he sees himself going into the bathroom...with the others following him. Except now...
The bar. Ender with his foot on his head, crushing his cheekbone. Except that then it's in the bathroom, and he doesn't stop. One kick to his face and...
Bonzo wakes up, jarred by the dream. He sits up in bed, soaked in sweat. Entirely out of it, but wide awake from the shock. Tiredly, he stumbles over to his closet for no reason in particular and sees the two uniforms in there. Dragon and Salamander. Trying to sort between them...he looks on, and takes a deep breath. In his mind, a voice echoes.
Listen, Wiggin, I don't want you, I'm trying to get rid of you, but don't give me any problems or I'll paste you to the wall.
He closes his eyes, and can see the scene playing in his mind. Stupid, stupid, stupid. After a moment, he closes the closet door and walks back to his bed, drifting off to sleep. The dreaming begins again.
Back in the bathroom. Not knowing what comes next...the thought of beating up Ender dancing in his mind, but now being held under control by another thought....o0(What am I doing here?)0o.
