how did it end up like this? (brance story)

chp. 8

Before I start, I just want to state, this will be a very long chapter, and so will this story. This chapter will have two different versions. One were sadly, vance didn't make it out, and one where he survived. Now, you just have to read, and figure out which it is.

Vance was walking home after a long day with bruce. He was thinking of going to the gas station, to get some drinks. He was almost there, until he decided that he should just go home. He went to sit down on a bench, just to enjoy the air. It was a breezy night, with no one around.

JUST THE PERFECT THING FOR SOMETHING BAD TO HAPPEN- just the perfect thing for a nice walk, what vance thought when he let his intrusive thoughts in. Vance had a gut feelings something absolutely terrible was gonna happen, but maybe it was just because of him thinking about Bruce. To be completely honest, just the thought of bruce gave him butterflies. Vance got up, after his mini break. He started to sing a song bruce really likes.

stars shining bright above you,
night breezes seem to whisper to you,
"I love you."
birds singing in the sycamore tree,
dream a little dream of me.
say nightly night,
and kiss ..-

vance was a the last part of his phrase, when he felt a arm around his neck. The strange man finished the rhyme
"AND KISS ME!!"
He dragged him across the sidewalk, and bumped into a van. Vance tried to fight. He punched the man multiple times, and he had a razor blade with him, which he slid across the side of the man's waist. The stranger screamed in pain, but so did Vance. The man pulled Vance's hair back, and sprayed some time of toxin into his mouth. Vances body went limp. The man dropped him onto the hard floor, and opened the van door. He threw vance inside.
"no.." he whimpered. The strange man started to drive away, and vance eventually fell asleep. A few hours later, he woke up on a hard bed. He tried looking around, but his vision was terrible. Suddenly, the man opened the door. He had a despising mask with horns, and a ugly grin on it, and blood spilling out from a huge white bandaid that is neatly tied around his waist.
"Look what you fucking did to me kid. You almost killed me." Vance fell ontop of the bed, schooching back.
"I'm not mad at you. I wont hold it against you." He came close to vance.

-FAST FOWARD TO A FEW DAYS-

Vance hopper, age 15, has gone missing ever since the Showalter child had been missing. Cops are still trying to save the boys, including the missing stagg child, but most detectives say that Stagg would have lasted less time, so it is best to predict he has already passed. Real words stated by the police here.
' The towns long misery has been going on for at least 3 years. The missing of Griffin Stagg, Billy Showalter, and Vance Hopper has shocked our community. Detectives are still on the look out.

Bruce layed the newspaper down. He had bought a new newspaper for everyday vance was gone. He checked daily to see if they found him. He would look at the news. But they never seemed to find him. Bruce waited for days and days, full with anger.
THEY HAVE TO FIND HIM !!
He wrote everyday in his journal about how much he missed him. He had started to wear his vests, and his chokers. He had gone to Vance's place once, just to get some of his clothes. Bruce would skip all his baseball practices. Bruce got up from his bed, and decided he should go to the park.
"Mom. I'm going to the park. Bye." Bruce said, as quick as he could. He jerked the handle of the front door, and walked outside. He walked all the way to the park, until he saw a house, with a sort like vent at the bottom. He looked inside it, and fell back. There was Vance, laying down on the floor.
