I flutter my eyes open and a ringing sensation feels my head. Everything is blurry and my head feels like it might explode. Damn it.
I go to touch my head but find I can't move my hands. I pull and realize they are tied behind me along with a piece of tape tightly sealed in my lips. I pull and pull hoping to break the restraints. As I pull a sharp pain spreads throughout my chest. I must have broken a rib. What the hell even happened?
The last thing I remember was that me and Cassy fighting. Wait where is cassy. I look up and around in hopes to find her. The room is dark but my eyes adjust. She isn't here.
I sigh and close my eyes. This would be the one time being an experiment would help. A faint warmth surrounds me and I open my eyes to find the familiar red glow surround my body. But as quickly as it came, it left.
I don't need this shit right now.
I hear a groan and look over I'm the corner where it came from. The room goes quiet and then I hear the groan again.
Cassy.
I try to make noise to let her know I'm here. "Scar? Gosh what happened?" She goes quiet. "Oh my god! Why are my hands tied? What the fuck! Oh god, oh god. When they said this job was going to cut my life expectancy I didn't think they meant I would die this early. Scar I didn't even get to go on a proper date yet! Oh hell no I can't die without a date." Cassy blabbers.
Gosh, of course her worry is dying without something like that. "Wait scar, use your experiment powers to get us out."
Gee great idea, I totally didn't think of that. OBVIOUSLY I CANT USE IT!
If my mouth wasn't covered I'd cuss her out right now. I continue to try to slip out of the rope and ignore the stabbing pain l. Eventually I loosen them enough to slip my hands out. I yank the tape off my mouth.
"Gosh Cassy, I'd only they taped your mouth instead of mines."
"Oh so they kinky kinky?" She snorts.
"Cassy shut up!"
I hear the door creak open and I quickly put the tape back on my mouth and put my hands behind me. Heavy footsteps near me and a light turns on.
A man that looks to be in his 50's stares down at me. "Hello Scarlett or should I say Reaper?" The man speaks. He leans down a rips the tape off my mouth.
"Who are you and how do you know who I am?" I spit out.
"Oh I know everything. I know your identity as well as the identity of your whole team. You're really feared in the underworld. Everyone wonders when it will be time for the reaper to come and get them." He bends down and pulls my head back.
Cassy let's put a whistle. "What I say, kinky." I roll my eyes and ignore her remark.
"What do you want old man?" I ask.
He smiles a sadistic smile. "I simply didn't want to wait for the reaper to come and get me. So I decided to go get the reaper. What better way to escape death than by killing it?"
I let out a fake gag. "I'm sorry can you say that again? I couldn't focus because I was trying to run from your breath."
He clenched his fist and brought it down on my jaw. My head snapped to the side and a dull ache engulfed my face. A trail of blood falls from my lip and I lick it away.
"Wow, my 90 year old grandma hits harder than you" I laugh.
This angers him more and he continues to hit me. I sit there and take it. A little more and I'll have the information I have.
"Die Scarlett, Die at the hands of Scott O'Niel!" He wraps his hand around my throat and squeezes.
All I needed was his name. I reach around and grab his hands. I yank them off my neck which brings him down to me. My elbow lands straight in his nose and I twist him around and put him in a chokehold.
"Thanks Mr. O'Niel, now go to sleep. I won't kill you yet because I want you to watch me kill your dear family." His eyes get back and he struggles against me. He struggles against my grasp and eventually falls limp.
I untie my feet and stand up.
"That was such a badass move! You was like pow, swish. And he was like ah no don't!" Cassy laughs.
I untie her and she wobbles to a stand. My body still aches but I push the pain to the side. It even hurts to breath.
"Let's...let's get...o-out of here." And then everything goes black.
