Matthew sat in his downstairs 'lab' humming to himself as he worked on... a potion, you could call it, to remove his anxiety and give him enough confidence to ask out the boy at his school.

This is the moment, this is the day, when I send all my doubts and my demons on their way

He gasped as the mixture fizzled and popped, turning blue, then purple. He thought about all his struggles with the mix, and how many failures there were.

Every endeavour, I have made... ever is coming in to play is here and now today

He grinned, carrying the bottle, almost seeming like he was dancing.

This is the moment, this is the time, when the momentum, and the moment, are in rhyme

He began laughing as he twirled. He was glad his parents and sister were not home.

When I look back, I will always recall

He tilted the beaker so that he could drink the liquid.

Moment for moment, this was the moment,

He took a sip.

The Greatest moment

He continued to drink.

Of them all!

He collapsed to the ground after th bottle was finished. Something was stirring in his brain, as his something began to change.

His hair became neat, flattened to perfection, and when he awoke, his eyes shine a menacing blood red.

Matthew found himself unable to control his body, possessed by an unknown force.

The voice chuckled, as Matthew internally gasped.

"What is this feeling of power and drive I've never known? I feel alive!" Matt cackled.

"Where does this feeling of power derive? Making me know why I'm alive!" Matthew was very scared, as he didn't know who this was controlling his body.

"Like the night it's a secret, sinister dark, and unknown," Matt whispered.

"I do not know what I seek, yet, I seek it alone!" He bellowed out, running out the front door, a cape trailing behind him.

"I have a thirst I cannot deprive, never have I, felt so alive!" He yelled out into the night, his black hair and angered eyes glinting with menace. He took a few stabs at the air, practicing some moves, mostly with the intent to kill.

"There is no battle I couldn't survive!" He stabbed the air three more times before doing a flip.

"Feeling like this, feeling ALIVE!" He growled out, tilting his head to the moon.

"Like the moon an enigma, lost and alone in the night." He hummed, finding himself in the city park.

"Damned by some heavenly stigma, but blazing with life!" He howled out like a wolf. All Matthew could do was stare through the eyes of another.

"ITS THE FEELING OF BEING ALIVE, FILLED WITH EVIL BUT TRULY ALIVE, ITS THE TRUTH THAT CANNOT BE DENIED!" He paused before smirking.

"It's the feeling of being Jay Matthews..." He hummed.

Jay felt a flutter of... something in his chest. "What's this? Sweet miss..?" He knew Matthew wasn't gone.

"I thought I had lost you..." He scowled.

He looked up and saw a boy, late teens, strolling about the city.

"Fate. Your folly will cost you dear.." He stalked up to Lee, chuckling.

"My dear, you'll see, you'll never escape me."

He took out the dagger as Lee bolted.

"My dear."

Uh-oh, Matt caught up. "You will pay dear."

He cut open Lee's chest, before stabbing him directly in the heart.

"My dear..."

He soon waltzed away, covered in blood.

"Animals trapped behind bars in the zoo, need to run rampant and free!" Matt screamed, flicking a lighter on.

"Predators leap for the prey they pursue, this time, the predators ME!" He snarled.

"Lost in a raging desire, fills my whole soul with its curse!" His face twisted and his neck cracked.

"Burning with primitive fire!" He lit a building up, watching the flame blaze.

"Beserk and Perverse!"

He stopped, only now hearing sirens and running back to Matthews home, passing out and allowing Matthew to regain control.

Matt continued to do this for several weeks.

*TIMESKIP*

Matthew trudged through the woods behind his home.

"It's over now, I know inside, no one will ever know," he leaned against a tree.

"The sorry tale of Jay Matthews, and those who... died." He winced as he remembered Lee, and all Jay's previous victims. "No one must ever know."

"Am I," he paused. "A good man?" He questioned, gripping his head as he found a lake. He stared at his reflection. "Am I," he paused again. "A mad, man? It's such a fine line" he whispered the last bit.

"Between a good man, and, a-" he was cut off as Jay manifested in his reflection.

"Do you really think?" Jay's voice was smooth, but full of amusement. "That I would set you go? Do you think that I would ever set you... free?" He questioned. Matthew nodded at the reflection.

"If you do, I'm sad to say..." Jay faked sadness. "It simply isn't so... you will never get away.." a wide smile broke across his face. "From. Me!"

"All that you are is a face in a mirror, I close and you disappear!" Matthew hissed in rebellion, closing his eyes and shaking his head.

Jay pointed his finger. "I am what you face when you face in the mirror! Long as you live I will still be here!"

"All that you are is the end of a nightmare! All that you are is a dying scream! After tonight I will end this demon dream!"

"This is not a dream my friend..." He chuckled. "And it will never end, this one is the nightmare that goes on!" Jay screamed in his counterparts face.

"Jay is here to stay, no matter what you will pretend." He flicked Matthew's nose.

"And he'll flourish long after you're gone!"

"Soon you will die and my memory will hide you! You cannot chose but to lose control!"

"You can't control me I live deep inside you! Each day you feel me devouring your soul!" Jay cackled.

"I don't need you to survive as you need me! I'll become whole as you dance with death, and I'll rejoice as you breath your final breath!"

"I'll live inside you forever! With Satan himself by my side!" A chorus of Matthews agonized screams filled the air, causing birds to fly off.

"And I know that now and forever! They'll never be able to separate Matthew from Jay!"
