Phoenix the Rising Alpha

68

Phoenix POV:

It took a while for both Uncle Jackson and I to begin the two witch's tortures not sure why though. We were fully ready to bring out our dark sides if we needed to, but after walking into their cells I just could not bring myself to start their torture. No, I was not having second thoughts about punishing them, I was just having second thoughts about prolonging their tortures.

I sighed and linked my father and explained to him how I was feeling and also explained that even though these two witches deserved being tortured slowly and painfully I just could not bring myself to do it. At first, I felt as though I had failed bot my father and my dad, but after I talked to my father, he explained that even though he agrees with me about slowly and painfully torturing the two worthless witches, he is not upset with me that I have second thoughts. 

He said he is actually happy with me because it takes more courage to go against myself and not act recklessly. I smiled happily with what he had told me. After I was done linking my father, I link my Uncle Jackson and explained to him about my discussion with my father and Uncle Jackson agrees with me too. For some reason he too cannot bring him to torture the witch in front him. He suggested us to take a step back and think a little longer before rushing into any decision.

I agreed and left the witch's cell., sighing heavily. I thought this would be a lot easier, but I guess I am more like my father than I thought.

'It's okay Phoenix after we talk a little bit more, we will figure out what we should do with them two'. My Uncle Jackson said. I just nodded my head agreeing with him. I'm not sure why I feel as though a quick and sudden death would be better for me than Uncle Jackson and I dragging out their tortures. I sighed heavily once again, and we began to think.

"Uncle Jackson, I just do not get it, I have been looking forward to their deaths ever since they attacked, or rather had Blaze attacked, and now that they are the palm of my claws, I have a sudden urge just to end them both quickly and painlessly". I explained but shuttered at the thought of actually letting these two worthless, wanna be all powerful witches that have been torturing my family and loved ones for just about twenty years or so, even longer if you add my mom and Alaric in the bunch. That crazy obsessive witch that had done everything in her so-called power just so she could to get Alaric to bend to her every wish and forget his fated loved one runs a lot further than just the last twenty years, for them it's more like three centuries.

I knew obsession was powerful and insane which obviously that crazy witch is, but you would after being rejected over and over again in any form Alaric took would have taught her something, but I guess not or would not be here right now trying to figure out the best way to deal with those witches.

I sighed heavily once again, deep in thought about what we should proceed.

'How about we take a walk and talk about everything that those two witches put our families through and then afterwards we can make a final decision on what our play is on how to deal with them two'. My Uncle Jackson suggested, and I nodded my head in agreement.

We walked out of the dungeons and began walking around the park lands talking about and remembering about all the things that our families have been put through throughout the years and after walking around for may be an hour or two we decided that a quick death is in fact to quick and easy, but we also agreed that once we get back down in the dungeons and if we choose a quick death then so be it.

I sighed once again after my talk with Uncle Jackson. We started walking back towards the dungeons and just do as we feel is right at that moment whether their deaths turn out to be a quick and painless one, or a slow and painful one is up to up. I'm not sure why I felt a smile on my face forming once I entered the dungeon again, but whatever is causing me to smile so widely probably means slow and painful it is.

I knew I was smiling like a maniac if the scared look on the witch's face anything. I still wasn't sure how I was going to proceed but I knew that for some reason I the need to pull off her fingernails one by one. Gruesome I know, but I couldn't shake the feeling of watching her wither in pain as I slowly pulled off her fingernails one by one, so slowly and extremely painfully.

'Why are you grinning like that.' the witch asked with a quivering voice as she backed up further in her cell. My smile grew wider the further she tried to escape my presence.

"What's wrong, scare?" I sarcastically asked her as I slowly walked closer to her. She shook her head franticly still trying to avoid me, I couldn't help but let out a little chuckle.

'Why are you laughing?' She asked with a tinge of fear in her voice. Her being scared of what I will possibly do to her made me and my wolf Cypress so happy, he was actually grinning harder than I was.

Without even saying anything to her I grabbed her right and hand and tugged and pulled on her thumb nail first. I was enjoying her screams as I ripped it off and moved to her pointer finger than her middle finger, her ring finger than finally her pinky finger. That little bastard took forever, but when it finally came off so did the top off her pinky. Even with all the blood I felt no sympathy or empathy for her. I actually felt a tinge of joy seeing her in the state she was. 

I stepped back and smiled at her.

"Well, I think that will be all for today, after all I'm not a monster." I told her and walked out of her cell, still smiling as I retreated from the dungeon.
