Killers

Period

Elsa's POV

I woke up in my bed screaming my head off then sobbing my eyes out. The nightmares, they just keep coming, and don't go away.

"Elsa?" Jack said pressing the button on my door, talking in through the speaker.

All of the rooms here are soundproof, so I had the system set up. I pressed a button near my bed, and the door opened.

Jack walked in tearstained and shivering.

"You too huh?" I said wiping the tears off of my face.

"Yeah." he said flopping down on my bed, "I just want them to go away, and sleep." he muffled.

"Me too."

"How did you do it all of these years?"

"I stopped living. I was just so caught up in hatred and revenge, I forgot how to live." I said.

Jack looked up at me, then started crying.

"I just want him back, I want our little Eros back."

"Me too." I said hugging him, and crying into his shoulder.

We literally sat there for hours, until slowly we both cried our selves to sleep.

Between the two of us, I was the first to wake up. I groaned, but got up. I took a cold shower to calm myself down. Normally I like a hot shower, but when I'm in this state, cold. When I was growing up in Russia, there was no heat, so we only had cold water.

When I was done, I dressed myself. I put on a pair of army green pants, a loose black tank top with a silver cross, a long dark grey cardigan sweater, and a pair of black leather saddle boots. I pulled my hair up into a ponytail leaving my bangs down, then threw on a little makeup.

After that I walked into the kitchen and cut up some fresh fruit and a protein shake.

I had a meeting today, so I had to be well fueled.

I sat down and ate, then I felt someone hug me from behind. I knew based on the smell it was Jack.

"Hey." I said.

"Hey." he replied.

"We have to blow up that hospital in exactly 20 minutes." I said.

"Bunny and North didn't show up?" he asked.

"I sat up cameras all over the place, and not a single sign of thermal radiation or movement. They don't believe that I can do it, they think I have gone soft." I said harshly, boy they have no idea who they have messed with.

Jack sat down, but didn't eat anything. He has been doing this a lot lately. I don't care though, if starving himself is his way of grieving, then by all means go ahead.

We all have our ways. Mine is cutting myself. I like the pain, it is one of the few things I feel anymore, it makes me know I am alive.

We both sat there 20 minutes, then nodded. We walked into the TT room, and pressed the button. We were both positive it worked, because moments afterwards all the channels stopped to tell everyone about the explosion.

All of the children, doctors, nurses, parents, all dead. The estimated count was over 400 people total.

I turned on the camera and did the same thing so no one would know who were are, then began to speak.

"As you can see my dear North and Bunny, I am quite serious about this. Now, if you think this was traumatic, then wait till what I have next in store. I have hidden a red mercury bomb in a major city somewhere across the globe. You have 3 days to turn yourselves into me at my place. If you refuse to show up or bring others I will detonate the bomb, as well as another bomb right here. Three days, if not, see you in hell." I hissed, then shut the camera.
