Your Memories

The boy gritted his teeth. He was trying his best to ignore the insults being flung at him as he walked. The road was cloudy but sun still shone through. The other boys walked along behind poking and prodded the freak of existence before them. The first boy wore a orange sweater and jeans and appeared to be no older than 10 or 11. The others were the same age and wore different clothes as they walked along the street with the Victorian buildings over looking. 
Harrison is what they called the loner. Jeering and laughing at they became frustrated by his ability to hold his temper and finally began throwing rocks at him. They mostly missed but the biggest and the obvious leader landed one right on the back of his head knocking Harrison forward onto the ground. The gang rushed in to laugh at his "clumsiness."
When they got Harrison was bleeding ever so slightly on the back of his shaved head and was red in the face with anger. The leader was the first to get there when Harrison reached out grabbing his hand between both of his own. The larger boy tried to dodge it so as to push him down once more but was too slow.
When Harrison's hands were firmly placed on the leaders and he whispered the boys name. "Billy, I see you." Every muscle in both their bodies tensed to their full strength and fell to the ground. Harrison had barely settled when he sprung to his knees over Billy, who moaned with pain as he regained consciousness. Harrison placed his hand over his heart and both their bodies tensed once again, this time Billy seized up and shook on the ground.
Harrison struggled to sort out his mind's new memories as he stared blankly drooling up at the onlooking boys. They were in shock and knew no course of action but to run and run they did, in all directions. Billy finally stopped seizing and simply left consciousness falling into a pseudo coma as Harrison's mind simply basked in the light and pain of Billy's home life and upbringing. Finally Harrison sorted through and rose unsteadily trying to remember which set of thoughts were his own.
Billy screamed in his asking pleaded to be put back to get out. Harrison silenced him through sheer force of will. He leaned back over Billy's body and placed his hand on his head and focused. The two seized violently but Harrison remained standing this time. Billy's thoughts left his mind and freeing him from the pain he inflicted by his undisciplined thoughts in these actions. Billy awoke startled and coughing and watched Harrison casually stroll away.
