I felt something today I haven’t felt in a long time. A sort of wave of heavy energy in the air that typically means someone else as powerful as me is nearby. And I can sense them from other cities nearby, so I knew as soon as I felt it that I needed to shield my psychic energy and block them from feeling my presence. Most of the psychics are captured by other powerful psychics that have been trained by the government to spot and sense us all around the world. We hid in remote towns, with nearly nothing and nobody around. They like to stay in the larger cities and pick out even the weakest psychics. The ones who can’t even feel the energy around them. They dope them up and drain their minds using mental and physical abuse. Pretty much making their brains mashed potatoes and then making them only do what they want. And they’re good at it. When I was younger we always lived in these horrible places that hardly had any kind of joy or happiness there. We hid. Ran. Moved all the time to more smaller and worse places to stay free. Once a psychic uses a certain level of power, they tap into what most would call the forbidden energies. It’s dark energy of pain, anger, darkness, revenge, hateful and dangerous. And it consumes their spirits. It corrupts you and makes you think it’s you wanting to hurt others like you’ve never wanted before, when it’s just a tired spirit begging for release. The thing is, we can’t hold shields up when we’re asleep, so we have to take turns and we try to gather as many psychics who can shield so we can survive and live free. I mean.. I’d rather live like this than be tested on, abused, used like a slave or worse a toy.
