Capítulo 30: 30
The next day went much like the last. Trish and I continued to sleep together and Trish continued to find small ways of being naughty to cause me to fulfill her new discipline fetish. That was exactly as fun as I'd expected it to be. The injections continued to be just as painful as I expected them to be as well, though I was happy to be able to see that I was slowly growing a bit better at dealing with it. Evening came around and once again Trish and I ventured out to a nearby community center that I'd used a bit of money to help Malcolm rent for the night.
My orders to him had been rather simple. Get as many of Kilgrave's victims to show up to this last meeting of the Kilgrave Support Group as possible in any way he could. Perhaps it had been a bit silly getting a fifty person conference room for this, but I really hadn't known the exact numbers even if the group had seemed small in the show.
In the end, it looked like Malcolm had managed to get about ten to fifteen people to show up, and from their reactions, all did indeed know who I was and what I could do. A simple command to be quiet, sit down, and do nothing else had them all quite literally riveted. Taking a moment, I look out over the room as I come to stand at the front of it and thank Malcolm for his hard work before telling him to go wait out in the car with Trish.
I smile thinly, "Hello. I'm quite aware that I'm the very last person any of you want to see. I'm sure that most if not all of you are afraid or angry right now. Don't be afraid. Don't be angry."
Looking out over the group, I watch as faces smooth over as the group before me is unable to feel either of the major emotions they most certainly want to be feeling right now. Smiling a bit more predatorily now, I clasp my hands together and lean on the cheap podium in front of me, "Wonderful. Isn't that nice? It might be hard for you all to believe, but I'm here to help. I'm here to take away the pain that I gave each of you."
Taking a deep breath, I begin speaking, "When you leave this room, you will all forget me. Forget everything that you know about Kilgrave and mind control. You will go back to your lives feeling good about yourselves and ready to succeed in all of your goals. I'm sure that some of you may have written about me in some form or other, or talked about me to others. You will remember this as your way of coping with the consequences of your own actions. You've moved past that now and you will take responsibility and move on with your lives."
I pause, but there's really nothing left to say except, "Go on now, go home."
I watch as the group slowly rises and leaves the room in something resembling a trance. Smiling and taking a moment to look around the room, eyes stopping for only a moment on the security camera that I already knew was turned off, I step out from behind the podium, hop off the stage, and head out to the car where Trish and Malcolm are waiting.
Sliding into my seat, Malcolm is first to speak up, "So? How'd it go?"
I look at him through the rearview mirror and smile, "It went perfectly. They'll all move on with their lives, just like you will once you're done helping me with that one last thing. Anything to report on that front?"
He shakes his head, "Nope, still spiraling, nothing like what you said will happen. You know I'll contact you as soon as something does."
My smile widens, "I do. After all, there's nothing you want more than to help me."
"Right, there's nothing I want more than to help you."
With a chuckle, I settle back into the seat and rest my eyes for a moment as Trish drives us along.
