the small boy fell to the ground, staring up at his brother and friend with tears flooding his eyes and heavy breathing. "r-raddy..?" the boy whimpered as he backed up against a wall, watching his brother step forward with a pocket knife clenched in his hand. "Robert.." the taller teen mumbled, looking back at his friend. "what're you waiting for radford? stab him!" "*&^%$ I CAN'T! HE'S MY BROTHER.. HE'S ONLY 6 YEARS OLD HE CAN'T CAST ANY SPELLS YET!" radford snapped at his friend. "how would you know?! maybe its some stupid lie those fucking witches told us so we wouldn't be scared of th-" "YOU DON'T MAKE ANY FUCKING SENSE" radford growled "JUST FUCKING KILL HIM OR I'LL KILL HIM MYSELF"

silence. radford looked back at his poor brother taking a shaky exhale. there was nowhere Robert could run since they were in an alleyway that was blocked by a gate. he clenched the knife before stepping forward. Robert tried backing up again but sunk into the brick wall more. "raddy.. please don't.." radford shivered before crouching down in front of Robert and putting a hand on his shoulder, pointing the tip of the knife towards the smaller boy's neck and weakly smiling. "say hi to mom and dad for me.." Robert trembled and tried squirming out of his brother's grip and screaming before the knife got shoved into his throat

Robert gripped onto radford's arm tight, gasping and gagging as the knife quickly got pulled out and feeling blood leak from the gash in his throat. radford dropped the knife as he looked at the blood that sprayed on his hand, screaming and falling to his knees. "finally.. now we wont have to worry about any witches killing us.. right?" radford trembled, grabbing the knife once again and just barely standing up. he heard his 'friend's' scoff behind him. "why do you care about that witch so much.. probably would've killed you anyway. you should thank me for saving you y'know." radford stared back at his friend before charging at him and pinning him to the brick wall. before the man could make any sound or mutter any word, the blade penetrated his chest, moving down before it got pulled out. "i care for him because im a witch too.. he was only 6 and you forced me to kill him.. he was my FUCKING BROTHER YOU PRICK" radford pushed the man to the ground before dropping the knife.

he looked at his blood coated shirt, breathing heavy. he teared up, before wiping them before they even came out. "i'll find a way to bring him back.. it shouldn't be to hard." he picked up Robert's lifeless body, staring at it as a single tear escaped his eye and dropped onto the body. "i'm gonna miss you lil dude.. you forgive me right? i didn't wanna.. but both of our lives were at risk.." he placed Robert down in a dark area in the alley, away from that.. monster.. before pulling a little charm out of his pocket. it was a green heart with the initial 'R' on it. he placed it in Roberts hand before hugging the body. standing back up and climbing over the fence blocking the entrance to the alley. he looked back at it one more time, before walking away.

don't worry raddy. i'll be with you everywhere you go!
