Mitch's POV

The metal pushing against the side of my head was unfamiliar, but I could only assume it was a gun of some sort. I'd only ever managed to see one once, due to our 'no open guns' law throughout the country.

How did Seto manage to get ahold of guns the-

"Oh Mitch, you don't know how long I've waited to see you again. I've missed you."

H.B.

The barrel was pushed more forcefully into the side of my head as a hand grabbed my wrists, twisting them behind my back making me wince.

"Any sudden movements and you'll get the privilege of testing out my new bullets." He sneered, amusement laced in his voice. Sadistic son a b-

"And trust me pretty boy, you don't want one of these in you. Now move."

The gun was removed from my head but the grip on my wrists tightened making groan slightly.

"Shut the fuck up and move before I shoot your brains out." H.B whisper yelled, jerking me to the left before shoving me forward, causing me to stumble over a bag.

"Forward." H.B scoffed with another forceful push. lil' bitch.


Our time spent together alone was brief as H.B had me stop in the middle of a large, eerie opening and the air soon grew colder as we where now exposed to the new surrounding. But the energy seemed rather vivid in this area, but it was too dark to tell where we were though..

Something was wrong. The air grew thick and the feeling of being watched was overwhelming but somehow, strengthening..? weird.

"Fuck Seto, where'd you go?" H.B breathed out from behind me, barely audible.

He then grabbed my shoulder and threw me to the ground, making me scoff in annoyance as he brought me back to my knees.

"Shut the fuck up and don't move." H.B yelled as he smacked the side of my head with the gun.

I winced quietly, continuing to stare at the ground.

Our surroundings were becoming more and more visible as the sun soon began to rise, ever so slowly. Only now did I realize H.B was wearing a not-so-familiar black masquerade mask along with formal attire that consisted of a white button up, black tie, sleek black dress pants and shoes. It was most likely has was wearing some kind of armor or padding underneath it.

To be honest, I wasn't even surprised at his attire, this man was all kinds of crazy. Fuckin' psychopath.

I watched through hooded eyes as he turned his back to me, rummaging through a small black bag whilst mumbling a few curse words

I watched through hooded eyes as he turned his back to me, rummaging through a small black bag whilst mumbling a few curse words.

Easy.

Quickly and quietly, I stood up, backing away a bit before hovering upwards and behind H.B as he turned around.

I lowered myself ever so slightly as he looked around frantically, amused.

"Hey fuckface." I scoffed before throwing him across the field and into a tree forcefully.

I didn't hesitate to fly over before he made contact with the large plant, cringing as I noticed the few branches that had impaled him; unfortunately, all managed to miss any important organs.

"You little fuckboy." I snarled before bringing him off of the branches and about a foot off the ground.

H.B coughed through lazy eyes, his mask still somehow clung to his face.

"I was thinking you might've tried something like this," H.B winced as his arm moved ever so slightly, most likely from the weeping hole in his shoulder.

"I didn't think you had the balls, guess I underestimate you.." 

I watched with hatred as he coughed before groaning again from the slight adjustment in his arm again, what the-

"But guess what Mitch?  You underestimated me too." H.B smirked as I caught a horrified glimpse of the object in his hand. Shit.

++ play the song (if you want to) ++

I quickly dropped H.B before attempting to form an force field around myself but it was to late.

The grenade finally exploded throwing me off, resulting in me being thrown to the ground violently.

I cried out as my body felt like it was on fire, H.B must've thrown a smoke grenade as well due to the amount of smoke, their was no way all of it was from the one hand grenade.

My head was pounding as my ears rang, any movements causing an intense pain, just about anywhere.My breathe soon grew quick and shallow as I inhaled the smoke, the panic starting to set in. 

My eyes grew heavy as I fought off the urge to just give up and die. 

As I regained my breathe, I'd managed to lay myself onto my side. The smoke had vanished enough to see and H.B was nowhere in sight. I-I g-gotta, I gotta go. N-now.

I quickly managed to stand up, taking a few steps before my legs gave up beneath. I cried out loudly, hushing myself quickly whilst picking myself up again. I didn't have enough energy to use my abilities, and even if I wanted to, I would be to visible in the air. Shitshitshitshit.

I whimpered as I ever so slowly rushed out of the opening, grasping onto the trees as I finally made it to the outskirts of the opening. I stumbled my way further into the woods, my vision blurred, my ears ringing. 

The pounding in my head was so intense I swear it could've been heard from miles away.

Each step I took introduced me to a whole other level of pain, making me cry out and whimper with every breath I took.

"A-ahfuck!" I whimpered as my foot caught on something beneath me, bringing me to another very painful encounter with the forests' floor. 

I bite my lip, trying to keep quite as I rolled myself onto my back. Each movement making me regret the last. My body, lungs, head, everything, was on fire. The pain spread to places I didn't even know could hurt.

I hiccuped and whimpered through the pain, my brain struggling to keep my eyes from shutting and enclosing me in darkness, once again. I was going to die here.

Eventually, my brain gave up and I closed my eyes, my body going limp in defeat. The tears continued rolling down my cheeks, the pain never left. That is, until, my mind finally went blank, the broken sentence replaying in my head. 


I'm s-so sorry-y everyon-ne, I'm-m just s-so so sorry, please for-forgive me, Jerome.
