Ch. 16

--Damian--

It was dark in the room when I woke up to the sound of creaking. Somebody was in my room and was trying to be discreet about it.

Cracking open one eye, I saw the silhouette of a man walking towards me. Without thinking, I thrust my fist out and make contact with his nose

. I could see him flinch but other than that he continued advancing. He wrapped his arm around me and placed a hand on my mouth.

I woke up in an unknown room. The walls were a starch white and it hurt to keep my eyes open, having been kept in the dark for so long. I was sitting up in a wooden chair and my arms were bound down. Not being able to move or talk, all I could do was frantically look around the room.

Hearing a noise, I turned my eyes toward the door. Standing there was Erwin.

I wanted to call out to him, but even without the mouth gag I probably wouldn't have. He was so pale and ghastly If He had changed his clothes I wouldn't have recognized him.

I don't think he recognized me either and sprinted toward me after a seconds hesitation.

He reached out to wrap his arms around me but stopped and rested his hands in my shoulders. He winced when he came into contact with my boney excuse of shoulders. Tears poured out of his eyes and all he did was mumble out I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. Confusion clouded my mind when it hit me.

I was going to be murdered.

It should have been obvious. Looking around the room, I saw all of the tourture devices and the blood splatter on the walls.

The door opened again, reveling a tall thin blonde in her late 30s. She smiled a tight lip smile and straightened out her white lab coat. Clearing her throat, she asked,"Damian, this is your brother correct?" I nodded and she wrote something on her brown clipboard.

"Okay so do you have a preference of execution?" They made it seem as if I had done something wrong. "Gun." I said. Erwin chocked on a sob. She nodded and handed Erwin the gun. "Only small final words. Nothing emotional." Erwin nodded, took the gun, cocked it and whispered,"I'm so sorry Damian."

And he fired.
