Glitched

It- it’s not my fault I’m like this. It’s nobody’s fault. I- I don’t even know how I got this curse. But hey, name’s Glitch. I- I don’t remember my real name. But I do know that my friends used to call me that. They’d pass me in the halls: “Hey there, Glitch!” In class, they’d whisper: “Yo, Glitch! Pass this to Makayla!” After school, I’d get a text: “Glitch, wanna hang out at my place?” They weren’t saying it in a mean way, though. It was like it was my nickname.
My parents died last year. That’s probably when I lost most of my memory. That’s when the neighbor’s took me in. They were really nice. They even called me Glitch! I didn’t even know what that meant, at least, until my friends reminded me. Apparently, I used to love glitched games, so they called me Glitch. Yesterday stopped all of my fun, though.
Yesterday was awful. That’s when the most horrible thing happened. My friends all died. They died because of me. THEY DI-DIED B-BECAUSE OF ME! I K-KILLED THEM! But it- it- it wasn’t my fault. I- I- I- I didn’t mean to. So-Sorry. I-I’m gl-glitching. Better calm down. Whew.
Here’s the st-story: I-It was all an accident. I- I didn’t k-know I had the a-ability to. A-all I did wa-was touch my friends. Running. R-running. That’s all I-I’ve been doing. R-running from the police. I-I tried to t-tell them… They wouldn’t listen… Th-they thought I had a tazer. W-we got into a f-fight. T-Trevor, h-he t-tried to s-steal my g-girlfriend! Gah! Ow! S-stupid- gl-glitch-glitches! Th-then I- I- started t-to gl-glitch. Ju-just like th-this. N-no! D-don’t l-leave! S-someone n-needs t-to kn-know m-my s-story! C-calm d-down, G-Gl-Glitch! Okay…
A-anyway, I- I slapped him. B-blue sparks came o-out on impact, and Trevor: he f-fell down. D-dead. I r-ran. I r-ran h-home, and put my favorite blue sweater on. I hurried back t-to the c-crime s-scene, and th-there was a c-chalk o-outline around him. Th-the police b-beat me there. Th-they questioned me. I told them the truth. Th-they didn’t b-believe me. They t-tried to taze me. I b-braced my-my-my-myself, but it didn’t do a th-thing. It-it was if I a-absorbed it somehow. I t-turned and ran. I- I pulled the h-hood over my m-messy white h-hair. M-my b-bright green s-stripe in my hair showed b-brightly, but looked p-pretty cool w-with my hoodie.
I shot my hand be-behind me an-and yelled, “N-no! N-not m-my f-fault!” B-blue electricity shot fr-from my fingers. Dead. All of the p-policemen. M-my o-other f-friends saw me, and wondered. I- I just had t-to push th-them out of the w-way. They were i-in my way. E-everyone I k-knew… Dead. I- I’m s-sorry. E-everyone.
I r-ran th-through a construction s-site t-to g-get away. M-metal p-poles c-came c-crashing d-down on top of m-me. Th-they would’ve s-sliced me in half, b-but I- I think I g-glitched. It went th-through me. Looked d-down, and I- I saw tha-that my b-body looked like something off of a c-computer screen. I- I kept running. I-I’m still running. I see my ref-reflection in w-windows. O-one eye red, one e-eye b-blue. I- I see you. M-move out of the way! W-whoops. Too late. I-I’m s-sorry. A-another p-person d-dead. A-another p-person o-outta t-the w-way… H-haha-ha...
