You're fooling yourself again. You always get this way and then just fail.
"Shut up! You don't exist, you are just a shadow, and I am solid." Darkness prevailed in the forge, Kruger hadn't bothered to start the fires. He was exhausted, but no matter how hard he tried to sleep he couldn't stop the voices from shattering the calm and stealing any hopes of rest.
Tonight was just the first, you will see. You get what you deserve, and for you it is a fall.
"I said....SHUT UP!" There was a crash in the forge as a shelf of ingots collapsed. Kruger didn't care, he'd launched the hammer with the intent of making noise and keeping the voice at bay. "I'll kill you if you don't shut up. This time is different. This time I am better."
Better" Good" Good enough' Not you, never you.
Kruger marched across the forge and retrieved Dark Heart from the shambles of metal and wood that it had created. "Please don't make me kill you. It was hungry, the damn thing was always hungry. He could feel its pull like a pulse through his fingers. "You don't understand what I am truly capable of, but test me more and you will." Kruger shoved the head of the hammer into his scrap bucket and gave the haft a slight twist, then watched as the bits of metal spaghettified and were sucked into the hammer without mercy. "You really will."
Destroy me....destroy yourself.
"No. This Anvil doesn't break, not even for you." He returned the handle back to its original position, snapping the barrier to that singularity into place. The formula engraved spiral circling the haft from handle to head glowed brightly as those emissions were caught and transformed into energy. What he could do with it he didn't know, truth be told he was afraid to find out. "You're just a shadow of what I once was. Pathetic. Now leave me in peace....just leave."
Hmhmhahahaha. For now, but we both know I'll be back.
The phone was in his had, he didn't remember sliding it from his pocket, couldn't recall hitting the speed dial button. He heard her voice on the other end of the phone and pressed it to his ear. "I'm coming over...I need....I need..." He didn't know what he needed, didn't know what to say.
"Shh..." The voice on the other side of the phone took pity on him, her voice. "Just come."
