Good vs. Evil

Chapter 16

MARCUS:
(I know what you guys are thinking-probably, I may be wrong. You are probably thinking, "Thank God! You are finally doing a chapter in Marcus's Point of View! You haven't done one since the start of the book!" If you aren't thinking that, oh well, most likely you're thinking it now!)

Why must Chase always get in the way? And how does he always get out of everything I put him in? He got through the CIA, which I thought was inescapable and he has managed to just about take everything I've worked for to get Bree to be in love with me. If that doesn't put him on anyone's hate list, then I don't know what would.

As I stare at Bree, I see the growing confusion in her eyes. I know what she's thinking, she's thinking, "What do you mean, 'you've taken care of Adam and Leo.'?" Well, I'll say it, I rigged there elevator with an electric pulser that when they hit the 'up' button, they will be electrocuted to the point of blacking out. I also had a security camera installed so I could see when this event took place.

Turns out, someone else had the same idea. I don't care who it was, they took care of the boys anyway, but Douglas and J-the Boss, can't know that. They'd have my android head.

"What do you mean, 'Chase will no longer be a problem soon.' Are you going to hurt Chase?" Bree looks at me with fear. I almost break. Almost. I nearly tell her about my bionics, who I am, and I almost explain everything to her. Just because of one look, I was ready to throw everything that our corporation has worked for. All because of one look. "Marcus, answer me. Are you going to hurt Chase?"

"What do you care?" I ask an annoyed voice. "You aren't actually in love with him, are you?" She didn't respond. "You know how messed up that is, right? That's positively horrid! I thought Chase had done something to get you to bloody compel you to do his terrible work! But you didn't, you did those horrid deeds of your own recognizance, and that is sick, Bree. You both are sick." After my rant, Bree uttered only two words. "What was that, you sick beast?"

"I said, 'GET OUT!'"

"You are in my domain, beast, you will speak to me with more respect." I stare at her coldly, devilish thoughts plaguing my mind. "Let's get down to my way of torture, shan't we?"

ADAM:

I see nothing but blackness as I lay on the floor. I wonder where I am, seeing as I can't see anything, I try to move around, hoping to be able to grapple onto something. Instead, I am meet with something small and cold. I think-try to, actually, it's hard seeing as my head nearly exploded every time I try to make a thought-about what happened before blackness. Nothing comes to mind other than Leo and I being in the elevator. That's where I must be! In the elevator! But that doesn't explain the-Leo. What if Leo is the small, cold thing I felt? It can't be though. He's survived worse than whatever this is, right? Surely, right? I somehow find the strength to get one eye open, but not the other. Leo was laying next to me in complete stillness. What if he really is dead?

"Leo?" I shake him lightly at first, soon my shaking turns into forceful shoves. "Leo! Come on, Leo! Come back! You've got to come back!" I don't think I have ever screamed so much in my life. My screams contort to some of pain and lost and then back to anger. Anger at my myself for not protecting him well enough and anger at the people that did this. When I get out of here, those people are going to pay. "Leo," I try one last time. "Leo, you've got to come back. I need you, Chase needs to, Bree needs you! We all need you! Come back." I started to cry. It wasn't possible. My best friend is...gone.
