Take Control

Withering mystery

Jesse screamed as he felt something literally eating away at his soul.

It hurts.

Pain.

Jesse collapsed to the ground and cried. His friends looked on worried, Lukas lent down to help his husband when he lifted his head up.

Blue-grey eyes met a pure black pupil and the rest purple. The area around his eyes turned black. He saw streams of tears falling out of both his eyes and shakily wiped them away.

"Jesse! What happened?" Petra ran back, her sword out. She didn't look ill anymore.

"I... I don't know." Jesse looked at her as she looked in horror, collapsing.

"T-thats what it meant. By taking my pain away. It gave it to you! I'm so sorry!" she cried.

"I-its alright." he smiled weakly. "At least there aren't any three headed withers around here." He gasped for air as his hands turned black and his skin turned grey.

"J-Jesse..." Lukas teared up.

Jesse's eyes widen as if he heard some terrible news.

"You need to kill me." Jesse whimpered.

"What! Why?" Lukas and Petra yelled.

"The wither i-in me wants to taste your blood." he cried, in pain.

"If you die, I die too. Remember? 'Thine shall always be together, even if in death?'"

"I-I remember. Lukas..." he grunted and panted.

Olivia cried "Your our friend, we can't kill you!" Axel teared up.

"Lukas, its for the gangs good." the two boy's agreed as Jesse hissing in pain as the blackness kept spreading.

"I-I agree." Lukas got his sword out and so did Jesse.

"But... Guys... you don't have to do this!" Axel told the two, facing each other with their swords.

"Its for the Order of the Pig." Jesse shakily gasped out. The two kissed each other as they slid their swords into each other. Poofing in a little piece of cloud and dropping their inventory.

"You will be remembered as great heroes." Petra whispered, collecting their inventory, climbing onto Axel's back as the five became three.

In heaven they met again with Ruben.

All was well.
