The Submarine

River

Eli twisted his hand agonisingly slow.
Geoff kept screaming at the top of his lungs.
I cried trying to get free. "STOP!! Your hurting him!!"
"That's the point" he looked into my eyes. I looked into his. I wanted to look away but I couldn't. I felt stuck looking into his murderous blue eyes. Blue eyes are usually calm like the ocean but this ocean is rough and brutal. The kind the flips boats. The kind that kills people.
"Next the Aztecs do this" he pulled Geoffs heart out fast.

Blood ran down his fingers, down his arm. And formed a water fall of blood into a pool at the bottom of his feet.
Geoff was quiet. Still. Lifeless.
I screamed at Eli but it did nothing. I knew it would do nothing.

Eli came closer to me and held the heart in my face. "Shhh" he put his bloody finger to my lip. "Listen" he whispered.
All I heard was a long monotone beep. I cried hard.

He  started wiping my tears away, purposely getting blood all over my face. "It's okay. You know he comes back. You know there's always another Geoff" he said comforting me. Then he leaned into my ear "you know there's always another me" he whispered slowly into my ear. It sent shivers down my spine.

I'm not sure how he keeps bringing people back but I believe it's clones. Many. Many. Clones.

My eyes drift towards Geoff to the cavity in his chest. I stare at the blood spurting out his body. It was like some water fountain... only this time blood.

"It's beautiful isn't it. The sound. The calm after the storm. Murder.."

I turned my head to him "I'm gonna kill you!!"

He put his hand firmly around my throat. "You know that doesn't work sweetheart. You have done it before but I came back... worse then  before." He let go. "Earl take her back to her room!!"

Earl ran in "yes sir" he unchained me from the wall. Eli grabbed some stuff out of sight.

"Here" Eli put the heart in my hands and wrapped them with duct tape. "Have it as a souvenir to remember this lesson."

I screamed wanting to get it as far away from me as possible. The remainder of the blood ran all over my hands. I swear I felt the heart beating.

Earl dragged me out the room back to my room.

"Layne clean this mess up!!" Eli bellowed in the background. Layne went and cleaned up Geoffs body and the blood.
I never knew what Eli does with the body. I just assumed he threw them off the submarine.. well.. I hope he does.

With a thud I hit the ground roughly.
I curled up and cried trying so hard to get the tape off my hands. I gave up.

Time passed. Lots of time passed. I don't even know what date or time it is anymore. We are so deep in your ocean that it's always so dark. Black. Scary.
