one breath in, one breath out. in, out. in, out.

Moments of silence pass by as i hold him against the tree, moving the the syringe up to his throat. i stared into his souless, yellow, cold eyes as i thought. Is this really the guy ive been working with? he's so reckless, he cant even show his face because hes Wanted.

"Aven look.... we can sort this out--" He spoke, breaking the silence. i felt his arm squirm underneath my grasp, the needle of the syringe pressed against his neck as he tensed up. I couldnt just kill him... could i? 5 years we've worked together- no. i cant let him go like this, he likes our enemy, if i let him live he could do so much worse...

I feel his cold shaky breath against  me as i push the needle a bit closer. "Im sorry Kelp." i whisper as my other hand took off his dumb star shaped mask and threw it to the ground. i wanted one last look at him...

I grab his hand and squeeze it before jabbing the syringe into his neck, as i watched his eyes light up in shock i almost felt bad, but then i started thinking about everything he's done.... i finished injecting the acid, i pulled the syringe back and let it drop onto the ground. His body went limp and rested against me and the tree, i stepped back as i let go of his hand and watched him fall.

 A quiet sigh escaped me as i put on a fresh pair of gloves, putting the old one in my bag. i grabbed his mask and started walking back to our old hideout from back when we first started this little scheme.. that scene replaying in my head the whole way.
