No Longer Dead

14

"I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!" BANG! BANG! BANG!

With each move I make towards standing up, the man with the glasses shoots at my knees. I stumble to the ground and scream in rage.

"Tsk, tsk." I hear above me. Saliva shoots out of my mouth as I seethe with anger. "Someone's been a bad boy, haven't they?" His foot turns my head to the side and he steps on my ear and pushes my head down onto the ground.

"LET ME GO!" I scream.

"I think I've angered the lion." The man says calmly. "First, shooting his boyfriend. Second, shooting his best friend."

"M-Masky isn't my boyfriend." I snap.

"Sure." He says. He steps down harder on my head. "Now, you're going to come with me, or I will shoot you dead right here, right now."

"I'm not going ANYWHERE with you!" I scream.

"TOBY!" I squirm underneath his foot. No, not more of them! Are they stupid?!

"Your friends sure are persistent." The man says as he points his gun at whoever shouted my name. I hear a bang and I wince. But there's a grunt above me and his foot comes off my head. I look up and see the man holding his shoulder. I turn to see Hoodie standing there with a gun tightly in his grip.

"Hoodie get OUT OF HERE!" I scream.

"I'm not leaving without you!" Hoodie shouts.

"YOU FUCKING IDIOT!" I scream. "HE KILLED PUPPET! GO!" Hoodie looks shocked but keeps his composure.

"Brian Thomas!" The man with the glasses shouts at Hoodie. Hoodie falters for a moment. "Don't think I wouldn't recognize your voice! Or that...disgusting hoodie."

"Shut up!" Hoodie snarls.

"H-Hoodie? What's he t-talking about?" I ask.

"Oh! He never told you?" The man says malevolently. "Brian was one of my patients. And so was dear Liu. And so was your friend here." The man points down at Puppet. "Although, he was just a child."

"SHUT UP!" Hoodie and I scream in unison.

"But poor Brian Thomas. Came to me with his mother after he started harming himself. She was frightened. But Brian...I'd never met a child so damaged until you. And then all of you freaks started coming in. Tainted my business.

"But then I caught wind of a frightened mother whose son went on a murderous rampage and caught his whole neighborhood on fire." The man chuckles darkly. "I knew I had to get my hands on you, Toby. Torture you. I told you mother I would find you and bring you into my care. She trusted me because I am one of the best psychiatrists to ever walk this earth-"

"Bullshit." I spit.

"And so she sent me after you. And when I found you, oh how excited I was to get to carve into you and make the boy who can't feel pain...feel pain."

"SHUT UP!" I scream.

"But then your fucking friends decided to break into my facility and take you away and bring you back to your mother. She was terrified, but took you in anyway."

"I s-said SHUT UP!" I scream. Hoodie fires a bullet and it hits the man's hand where he's covering his previous wound. He makes a pained grunt and glares at Hoodie. He raises his gun and fires and Hoodie falls to the ground.

"HOODIE!" I scream.

"Now shut up." The man kicks my face hard enough for everything to go black.
