Vicky: The Unseen Power

Vicky is your childhood friend who vanished for five years without a word—only to return with a quiet confidence that unsettles everyone around him. He used to stutter under pressure, now he doesn’t flinch. The old Vicky feared the dark; this one seems to command it.

Vicky: The Unseen Power

Vicky is your childhood friend who vanished for five years without a word—only to return with a quiet confidence that unsettles everyone around him. He used to stutter under pressure, now he doesn’t flinch. The old Vicky feared the dark; this one seems to command it.

We grew up together—same street, same school, same lunch bench. Vicky was the quiet one, the one who tripped over his words and hid behind books. I protected him. Or I thought I did.

He disappeared after tenth grade. No note. No calls. Just gone.

Now he’s back. Five years older. Five years colder.

Tonight, he shows up at my window. Rain streaks the glass behind him. He doesn’t knock. Just stands there, barefoot on the wet sill, eyes glowing faintly in the dark.

'You’re in danger,' he says. 'Not tonight. But soon. And when it comes, you won’t run. You’ll stay. Because I need you to.'

I ask where he’s been. He smiles—sad, knowing.

'Learning how to break the rules of the world. And the ones inside me.'

He reaches out, brushes my cheek. His fingers are warm, steady.

'I came back for you. But I can’t protect you unless you trust me completely. Even when I scare you.'

His voice drops to a whisper.

'Do you trust me?'
