Sick Intentions

Chapter Fourteen

Piercen was on his way home when he noticed her walking on the side of the road this late at night. She looked like a deer caught in the headlights noticing the first car to drive by and it struck him like a bolt of lightening that this is his chance. This was his sign he could not miss out on to see for himself if Benjamin meant what he said hours earlier about loving him. This was what he needs, wants with everything inside him. He needed his fix and he will be getting it tonight.

He slowed down the car and rolled his window down asking, "Do you need a ride?"

She looked nerved. She appeared young around eighteen or maybe younger he could barely tell. All he could see was her fearful eyes consuming her entirely. Everything in her body telling her not to trust someone and get in their car when she's always been told not to but she never listened to them anyways. She was a rebel always doing the opposite of what her parents instructed and that is why she took off walking this road to a friend's house and not her real home. She wanted to get away for the night and she still has a long ways ahead of her to arrive there with a dead phone and the cold weather with rain looking like something that may begin soon.

"Yeah if you don't mind taking me." she replied not knowing the sickening thoughts Piercen was careful not to show and scare her off with.

"No, it's no problem. I'm going this way anyway." he gave her a friendly smile but underneath boiling inside was something sinister.

She smiled back without considering just how horrible of a mistake she was making. She walked over to the passenger side of the car, opened the door and got into his warm car to her doomed fate.

*****

He wasn't interested in taking her to her destination. He wasn't interested in her as a person. He wasn't wanting to love her. He wasn't wanting her at all that way when she is simply his next victim. She is who he will hopefully be sharing with Benjamin in a fun adventure together as he brings her down the last step into the last place she will ever see before she dies.

As he gets to the last step he lets her body drop onto the floor still unconscious from being knocked out while he walks over to Benjamin. Even in the dark he can see Benjamin's terrifying eyes with the knife gripped tightly just like he left him. He hadn't moved. He hadn't done anything except stay in place petrified of what is about to take place.

"You don't have to be scared. We're just going to have some fun." Piercen says losing his mind into the dark thoughts to plague him he can never have go away. They are always there lingering. They are always there trying to tempt him into going down that same dark path. That same path he thought he could stop once he found someone in life to love and love him but that wasn't true.

He doesn't want to stop. He can't stop when the thoughts never leave him. He was never sane to begin with and he wants Benjamin to come along with him. They can love together. They can kill together.

Benjamin doesn't speak or move as he stays completely still where he is as Piercen stands there waiting for him to get up. Waiting for something as the seconds tick by into minutes and his irritation goes up a notch as he hears the girl groan. "Get up." Piercen orders him not in the mood to waste time.

"Wha- what do you want me to do?" Benjamin struggles to ask able to feel his heart vigorously thump inside him. Pounding over and over as he feels like he's about to be sick. Sick thoughts of what Piercen wants and he doesn't want to do makes breathing nearly impossible.

'I can't be this insane. I don't want to be that deranged as he is.' he think questioning his sanity he isn't sure he has.

"Show me just how much you love me. Show me just how much you want to live." Piercen replies without a pause, without a stutter in his voice. "Do it Ben!" he yells as she starts to wake up.

His eyes never leave Benjamin's as he watches him struggle to his feet holding the knife. Standing up and Piercen gets close enough to him holding Benjamin's hand where the knife is being held as he looks into his eyes, "Don't think about doing anything you shouldn't." he says in a sinister voice that has Benjamin swallow.

Most sane people right now would think to themselves, isn't killing something no one should do? Is it not something horrible? Some sick act that shouldn't be acted out? No one should suffer? No one should cause pain to another? No one should try to convince someone also the victim to participate in?

Well it should be. It shouldn't be something Benjamin is about to consider. This isn't something he ever thought he would do with his life hanging in the air and the helpless girl.

She's starting to wake up. She's starting to move around and Benjamin thinks back to Helen. He sees Helen laying there instead and the night flashes back to him in a haunting scene he wants out of his head. He doesn't want to see it. He doesn't want to participate in such an act he can never escape. He doesn't want to relive the bad memories he thought he was over. He thought he didn't love her anyway and it didn't hurt but it does. It does when he's pulled back and she opens her eyes screaming once she realizes she's somewhere dark.

She isn't walking. She isn't in the car about to be dropped off at her friend's when Piercen knocked her out. Her head is pounding and she doesn't want to be here. She shouldn't have gotten in his car. She shouldn't have trusted him but she did naively and to his sick benefit.

Her hands are tied and so are her legs. She can't get up. She can't escape as she sees not just the same figure from the car but another man with a knife in his hand and Piercen takes great pleasure in seeing her confused expression piecing everything together. "Go on Benjamin show me. Show her." Piercen is now behind Benjamin whispering into his ear and it's not sweet nothings.

He's telling him to hurt her. He's instructing him to make her bleed. He wants him to feel the same as he does after he takes out his anger and rage from the past onto some poor victim whose life is in his hands. He wants Benjamin to see red and lose himself in the moment as he does every time he kills. He wants to see and know Benjamin would do anything for him and that would mean he did find the perfect person he can love forever.

He nudges Benjamin to the nameless girl he hadn't got to know before he knocked her out and tied her up right before he brought her up the stairs into the house. He didn't care to know about her when she would be nothing soon. She is merely a release Piercen has been needing to feel in a while since he found Benjamin.

Granted Piercen usually keeps his victims for six months and then he strikes this time the hunger has gotten too much to him. He has everything bottled up and hasn't had anyone to take it out on because Benjamin is too precious for him to hurt. He doesn't want to kill the one he loves when he can kill someone else, they both can together.

"No! What are you doing?! Get away!" she screams staring at the unknown man.

"There's no use in screaming no one can hear here. Neighbors live too far but you would already know that." Piercen says in a calm voice, mocking her as he does to every victim dumb enough to think screaming will help.

'As if Benjamin or I are going to get away just because she tells us. Yeah right.' he looks at her with a demented smile across before he realizes as she continues to scream there seems to be a problem. Benjamin hasn't moved an inch from the nudge Piercen gave him. "Do it." Piercen whispers into his ear walking up behind him and having his hand wander on Benjamin's lower region. Brushing up and rubbing him through his jeans.

"What the fuck is going on?!" she screams staring at them but she doesn't get an answer.

Piercen has complete control of Benjamin and he knows it's not going to take much to get him to do what he wants. All he has to do is convince him, push him in the direction of murder and it doesn't seem like much. Already Benjamin has fallen into the deep end and lost all sanity becoming turned on by a murderer and willing to kill for him.
