Burn (Chapter 19)

Previously
Closing my eyes, the anger overtook again, fully. I opened my eyes and sat up spinning in a circle. Where the hell is Ace. I let him go! Why would I do that?

The little girl. Devon. It was her, she caught my emotions. How the heck did she do that?

Now
Have you ever been so angry that you can't see. That you can barely breathe. The feeling you get when you want to do something about your anger. When your brain says 'You can hurt them, you know you could' but then common sense shows up and you know you shouldn't.

Well, it looks like I don't have any common sense anymore.

My brain has always been wired to hunt, kill, destroy. That's what war is. No compassion or love. I let that part of myself open up. My mistake, a mistake I'm not gonna make again.

He is going to die. By me. I'm going to kill him at the first chance I get, and then kill him again for Sam. That boy tried to kill my brother, and brainwashed me to try to do the same.

The thing is, if I really wanted Sam dead, he would be. Im not that dumb.

After I kill that disgrace of a warrior, I'm going to find my twin.

After sliding my knifes back into my belt and boots, I super speed back to my apartment. About 4 feet from my front door I stop. Ty. What the hell is she doing here?

"Hey Kat. You weren't in class today, what's up?" She's smiling, smiling, why would a warrior smile.

"Why do you want Tyler?" I reply with a scowl.

Immediately her smile is gone and I step forward, making her step back.

"Kat what's wrong, your boyfrie-" I cut her off with my forearm to her throat.

"I don't have a boyfriend, just enemies." Red. There it is. I remove my arm and push her to the ground. I step over her and open my door.

Glass is everywhere. Blood is all over my counters and floors. I almost forgot, I got stabbed.

I close the door behind me leaving Tyler. I grab a broom and sweep all it up in a second. Wiping up the blood and fixing the furniture takes two.

If I want to kill Ace, I have to be precise. The little girl, Devon, has to be away from him, I can't have her stop me. I'll have to kill her too most likely. Then I will find my brother.

Once my apartment is up to key, I sit on my couch and think. How do I want to kill them. Drowning? Torture? Bullet? Stabbing? Huh, who knew there was so many ways to kill a person.

Let's stick to the classic, torture. When though, when would make it the most painful.

I got it.

Five hours later

It took a full minute to walk up to the door like a normal person. A minute takes a long time. 60 seconds. Such a waste.

Knocking rapidly on the solid steel door should have damaged my hands. I guess I have to thank my fingerless gloves for that.

The door softly opens to find Devon on the other side. She looks terrified and before I can speak there is a doors in my face.

I hear three bolts lock, and then a sliding sound. Like she's trying to push something in front of the door.

Too bad that wouldn't do anything, whatever lets play this little game of hers.

"Devon, it's okay. I'm not gonna freak out again. Look, if I really wanted to kill you, would I knock on the door to tell you I'm here." I pause. Slowly locks start to unlock. "Thank you so much De-" I say as The door starts to open, but it wasn't Devon. It was Ace.

Looking at him, I start to see red again so, I look down shaking my head. I was doing so good damn it, I can't mess this up.

He clears his throat, trying to keep control, I look up. Clinching my fist until I have fingernail imprints on my hand, I look at him. Our eyes connect and this, feeling, like I just got punched in the gut slammed into me. What the actual hell.

Quickly looking down at the ground and stepping back from impact, I start to turn away. "I shouldn't have came." Then I'm back home.

Burn.

"Damn it!" Falling on the ground and clinching my stomach and wrist from the pain and sensation I got from looking at Ace, "S-stop it."

"Shhh.. Shh..." Gasping from the pain, I feel a warm hand on my shoulder. "Kat. Kat it's okay." Ace. That idiot. It'll be back. The other me.

"G-go god damn it. You'll g-get hurt. Ge-get away from me, you idiot." I push his hand as hard as I can, which isn't much at all, and try to stop this bloody pain.

I can hear the assertiveness in his voice as he says, "Never Kat. I'm never going to leave you. I'll always be here to help you." He gently places his hand on my stomach, right next to my hand. The pain from the stomach is gone almost immediately. Just the wrist remains, I'm not as weak so I look up a little and sigh. "A-ace you need to go." He shakes his head. "You have to, I'll hurt you. Please." He starts to shake his head more. "Tie me up then. Tie me up if your not going to leave." He just stared at me. "Ace I'll kill you if you don't, you know that. Do it damn it, and don't believe anything I tell you when this stops." So he did it. He stood up, I told him where to get some rope, and then I was tired to the kitchen sink pole.

Once he was done, he got on his knees and sat next to me. He held me in his arms and I felt safe, I was in pain, but safe. "J-just know I love you."

Then as quick as it came, it was gone, and I wasn't happy, and I didn't feel anything. Everything's was just red.
