Officially Cumberbatched? A sequel to 'Well and truly Cumberbatched'

Chapter 14

AN: The next update is going to be quite soon after this one as the plot thickens. Enjoy! *laughs manically in the distance* I'm not sure if this is that good so do let me know what you think! :0) 

I caught the hair pin between my thumb and index finger. As the insufferable Anna lay in agony on the floor I picked the lock just as Jacob came in, a look of shock made it's way across his face as I remained standing. Quickly I made eye contact with Merlin and he was back at my side. "Do it brother! Do it now Jacob!" she yelled and I saw him reach for the gun, but his hands were shaking. Did he want me dead or not? Is this just another game? 

That gun.

I need that damn gun. 

He came towards me, tears in his eyes. With what little hope I had left I got ready to hopefully spring on him and handcuff him when...

He turned the gun on himself. 

I pleaded with him to stop. He's clearly Anna's puppet but I want this son of a bitch to face some sort of consequence than wasn't as easy as death, death is a cowardly way out for a villain. 

"But why?!" he cried. "I didn't want to do this, she said it was just a thought! It was just a joke!  She made me do it! I never wanted to be a part of this!" He sobbed, standing on Anna's torso, stopping her getting up.

I have no idea if believing him will heighten my chances of getting out but everything he says reeks of bullshit. 

"Why are you then?! WHY did you grab me, knock me out with a chloroform rag and beat the shit out of me?! WHY?! I SHOULD BE IN LONDON. I SHOULD BE AT HOME. I SHOULD BE WITH BEN!" I barked and he cried some more. Argh Why is he crying, I'm the one who's miles from home in total agony. (I noticed a letter  that had the postcode for Maidstone, Kent.) 

"Stop fucking CRYING, you have no right to shed tears! I'm beaten and bruised, I'm miles from home. All this for what?! Because the man I love doesn't love your precious fucking sister!" I screamed. Merlin got behind me, he was growling now. I stepped back he suddenly had the gun at Anna's head.

"I want justice, you kill her and I swear to every god in existence I will make sure you have debilitating nightmares for the rest of your life. I will make you wish you were never born, fucking try me." I snapped and he broke down crying, oh for gods sake. I walked back and grabbed a frying pan and hid it behind my back. I lent down to Merlin and whispered in his ear. 

"Break his arm Merlin, on three, Vatican Cameos on two" I said and he positioned himself to attack. 

I quietly whispered to myself. 

"One" I felt my voice shaking, I took a deep breath trying to ignore how much everything hurt. Which was getting harder by the minute.

"Two" I said walking towards Jacob. In the few seconds and with all the strength I had, I hit him square in the face with the heavy pan and he hit the floor. I knocked Anna out with the frying pan and kept hitting her till she went red in the face. Full of fear and rage I pulled the handcuffs from my back pocket and cuffed Jacob to the metal pole that was supporting the kitchen worktop and kicked him square in the face. I grabbed the gun in the split second I had left and stepped back a few paces. The pain I was in was getting harder to ignore now.

Come on universe!  Someone must be able to hear this!

"Three!" I called out and Merlin lunged at Jacob, his sharp canine teeth piercing through Jacobs flesh and I heard a crunch. His arm was broken, good. Jacob screamed in agony trying to get Merlin off and begging me to stop Merlin but I decided I wasn't done yet, I want him to feel just a fraction of the pain I was in. I'm in agony, how I'm even standing I don't know. 

"Merlin, my side. Now." I commanded a few moments later and he came to my side, I held my stomach trying to ease the pain. "Good boy" I panted and he wagged his tail, I could tell he was getting tired though.

"You can't get away with this" Jacob sighed through his tears.. 

"Because I'm merely defending the life of myself and my best friend? What, is that illegal now, like abduction and torture is a fucking okay?" I bluntly said walking to him and Merlin followed, right now I could happily murder Jacob right here but then I'd be as bad as him.

"Merlin, stop" I snapped, he halted, sat and waited for my command. I've never been so strict and blunt with Merlin until today but I had to be, I had to keep him safe, his survival was as important as my own. Wolfpack. No one gets left behind. I picked up the frying pan again.  

"You kidnapped me." I raged, bringing the pan to his face.

"You beat me black and blue!" I cried, hitting him again, wincing in the unbearable agony my abdomen was now in, everything ached, my stomach, my arms, my legs, I'm so tired I just want to escape. 

"You took me away from everything and everyone I love!" I shouted

"You held me captive!

YOU stood by and let this happen!

You chose the wrong person to mess with." I said now pointing the gun at him.

"You're not sorry, you never were" I said, I was panicking inside, trying to buy my time to figure out how to escape, the windows were all sealed and I couldn't see a front door in the darkness of the hallway.

How big is this place? 

He looked at me as Anna stirred, and smiled a little. That sick fuck. 

I shot him in his left kneecap. The time for showing humanity was long gone and he wailed in ear piercing agony. "Smile on that, asshole" I said, slowly backing away.

"Give me the gun", Anna said.

"No" I replied, exhaustion started setting in, slipping it in my front pocket. My mind is racing but my body wants to give up. 

"Merlin 'with me', absolutely port of me Merlin" I ordered and he did, it meant stay to my left, as close as he could. Being left handed I always felt more confident with things on my left hand side. He was so close to my leg I could feel his heart rate come down, he was confident because I wasn't so tense now. 

'Keep calm and carry on' I thought to myself. 

I want to live.

I can't die here. 

We can't die here. 

She walked around the kitchen island, before running towards me and I ran towards the door. As soon as me and Merlin were out I got to the front door which was barely noticeable, it appeared to be boarded up, I only just noticed it as a glimmer of light came from a tiny window above the door. I could barely see it, it was so dark, there were at least six large different locks on it, even if I shot the first lock it wouldn't be enough to break the door open. 

Was this some kind of torture chamber? I desperately picked at the first lock with the pin I had, my hands were shaking, I'm so damn scared.

Merlin began barking and went for Anna as best he could in the limited light we both had. She grabbed his collar and tried to choke him, which only enraged me more. I grabbed her hair and pulled until a huge clump came out in my hand and she screamed in agony, finally letting go of Merlin.

"Behind me Merlin. Now!" I ordered and he got behind me.

With what strength I felt I had, I pushed her into the wall, aimed the gun at her shoulder and shot her, she hit the floor clutching her wound and I desperately got back to the door.'Someone cut me a FUCKING break!' I thought to myself.  

I frantically began to pick the first lock again, the damn thing won't budge, keeping Merlin as far away from that witch as I could. He was panicking, so was I.  

Suddenly something grabbed my ankle. 

All I could think was shit! My head hit the heavy door handle, then the floor.

I was out cold.
