Victoria's painful snicker drives up my spine. "You bitch! You conniving little bitch!" Sam is screaming. Sam's ears were close to puffing out a plume of smoke.

"What, can I not laugh?" Vic is pissing me off. Her showing up everywhere like a pop-up ad in a Youtube video was starting to get old.

"No, not really," Danny said confidently. I smile. " Okay, we get it, bad blood and all, can we just get to the main point of this," Keith chimes in. Now he thinks he's relevant? Wow, buster, you are insanely mistaken.

"Shut your trap you ankle-biter," Shouta says. I look at him and roll my eyes before looking back to Keith. "Why are you even here in the first place? You have no point in being here," I respond. "Well, once upon a time, he messed with me while I was trying to mess with you and it pissed me off, so I wanted to get back at him," Keith finishes.

 What?

 "So, you wanted me and Victoria wanted Touya, but I wanted Touya and Touya wanted me?"

I use my hands to reference the odd love-square thing we are tangled up in.

"In a way. I wanted you while Victoria wanted him, but then, of course, odds worked against our favor, so you ended up wanting one another. So, Vic and I teamed up and pretended to be together so she could get closer to you. When he died, everything went to shit because now Vic didn't love me, you don't love me, and Vic wanted him but obviously can't have him," Sam interrupted. "So you're not needed in this situation?" Her hands waved around in a "womansplaining" manner. She was about to cackle, I swear.

"Would you not, please? Anyways, Vic told me that I was useless and ditched me, but I found out who she was working for and now I work for him too. Much easier that way, doll."

"So now you want me dead because I didn't want to have a fucking relationship with you?" I'm curious. 

"Nope. He ruined my life, and because you're the closest thing he's got to family, I want to do the same thing. Vic here is just possessive," Keith says. 

"I can speak for myself, dick-wad," She tells the termite. Never mind, they're both termites.

"Can we please get this over with? We just want to get Touya back."

"FYI, dumb and dumber, kidnapping and torturing is an offense."

"Why can't we have him back again? We aren't a divorced couple and he isn't the shared dog. Touya and Touya's love life aren't Henry and Lewis from Outbreak." Vic tilted her head slightly. "What?" [movie reference; henry and lewis are saint bernards that the main characters share. also, watch the movie :)]

Danny made his mouth form the shape of an O," Wait, you've never seen Outbreak? Oh! Killer movie, literally," He replies with a naughty smirk. "Seriously? Not the time, Danny," Sam interjects with a hand tracing the stress lines in between her eyebrows. 

I look back to Vic and Keith and see them glance at each other. "Just tell us where he is! There was never a point to this, making him fake his death and then literally taking him away from his life!"

Vic smirk drops its corners and begins to look around.

She looks. . . confused? Why? She knows exactly what she did.

"What do you mean? We never did that," She says while sending daggers at me.

"Yes, you did! Does it look like we have him here? Hm?" I look to Sam. She catches my eyes and lightly shrugs her shoulders. I look back. "Yes, we took him, but he wasn't dead. We made sure of it. We sent you a letter telling you he wasn't but we would make him wish he was," She says. My jaw drops like it lost its hinges. I think I've just lost my hinges.
