(A.N 3 chapters in one day! Yaa! Since @pewdieuniverse  keeps on rushing me! (Cough Cough.) anyway I usually stop the chapter between 700-800 words. Just so you know. Hope you enjoy the story!)

Shima gasped seeing that the room was empty. "Dolan?" The leather straps were snapped and the windows were broken. The curtains were ripped to shreds.

Slapped Ham and Critical entered the dark room and sighed.

"Sheesh. I thought I didn't like going to the doctor.." Slapped Ham said followed by a sneeze. There was thumping in the air vents and Shima gasped.

"Up there. He went into the vents!" She exclaimed. She jumped on Slapped Ham's back. "Help me get up there!" She ordered, motioning to Critical. Critical grabbed her and put her on his back, lifting her high enough to reach the vents. Shima climed inside the vent and started army crawling toward the noises ahead.

Suddenly the vent shut closed and so did the door. Both of them locked automatically. Critical banged on the door but it wouldn't budge. "Dolan must have activate the security system Shima installed." Critical grit his teeth and banged on the door some more.

Sapped Ham noticed that the windows had a layer of metal over them, so nothing could get in or out. He glanced up at the shut vent. "Shima is trapped in there...I really hope she can find Dolan.." He thought.

Shima crawled through the vent and contently looked down, worry filling her head. "Dolan...please be okay. This isn't you at all." She thought. "I wanna help you Dolan..cuz..." She blushed slightly at the thought. She quickly dismissed the thought with a shake of her head.  "Never mind..."

Dolan was slammed into the wall and his hat flew off. Hellbent slowly walked toward him. They were in the basement of the studio. Dolan slowly got up and got into a fighting stance again. The light above them flickered on and off. When the light was on for only seconds, Hellbent was nowhere to find.

"It is hilarious how you keep on trying, even though you know you wont win. How can you protect Shima from me ever when you are so weak." Hellbent taunted as he kicked Dolan in the gut.

Dolan coughed out blood and scrambled to his feet. "Hellbent..stop..." He whispered as he tried punching Hellbent. Hellbent moved out of the way and grabbed Dolan's wrist. He pinned his arm behind his back and pulled up, breaking his arm slightly. Dolan screamed out in pain and Shima became more frantic.

"You think you can run from me Dolan?" Hellbent asked as he threw Dolan to some boxes, knocking them down. Dolan turned to face Hellbent, blood dripping from his head. The light flickered and he saw Hellbent disasaper in the light.

"I will be the one to stop you..." Dolan said as he stood up. Hellbent smirked and grabbed his neck.

"I would like to see you try."

Hellbent threw Dolan to the wall again. Dolan saw Hellbent dissaper again when the light flickered. Hellbent shoved his foot on Dolan's chest and the kicked him. "You always knew it was going to end this way." Hellbent said as he kicked him repeatably. Finally when Dolan skidded across the room, he spoke.

"No...Hellbent...stop..." He said as he grabbed the stairs to the basement, trying to escape. Of course Hellbent didn't let him go so easily. He kicked him square in the chest sending him rolling toward more boxes.

"No Dolan. I won't stop. Not now not ever. I am the thing that keeps you up at night." Hellbent grabbed Dolan by his neck and lifted him into the air. "The evil that haunts every dark corner of your mind. I will never rest and neither will you." Hellbent said leaning into his face.

(Quick A.N That was a actual line from the show er episode. Slade says that when he is fighting robin for the last time.)

Dolan gasped for breath and sputtered. "My friends say you are not real."

Hellbent tightens his grip, making him choke. "I am very real." Hellbent threw Dolan into the boxes again, making them fall on top of him. "Could you have gotten all those wounds from someone who wasn't there? You can't even touch me." Hellbent said.

Shima heard the commotion get close and she went faster. "Dolan!" She said as she looked down. She broke the vent and fell into some boxes on the other side of the room. She looked up and saw Dolan leaning agensit boxes and clutching his bleeding arm.

Dolan was out of breath and coughed out blood at random times. "All these...bruises...but you don't have a scratch!" He yelled. He remembered all the times he had encountered Hellbent, starting with the forest with Shima .

"There was no one there." Shima's voice echoed in his head.

"There are no hostages, there is no Hellbent." Critical...

"I am the thing that keeps you up at night. The evil that haunts every dark corner of your mind." Hellbent...

Dolan slowly stood up and Shima stepped out from behind the scattered boxes. "Every dark corner..." Dolan muttered. "You are all in my mind...only in the dark. Shima was right. You aren't real!"

Hellbent's eyes widened and he charged Dolan again. "I am real enough to finish you-" Suddenly the lights flew on and Hellbent dissapered. Shima stood next to the leaver that turns on the light.

"Lights out Hellbent..."
