Blood: Story of a Psycho

Chapter Three

 I noticed a familiar face come into the diner. The guy was Roman Lysander. Roman was one of Paul's friends and he is basically a guy who could steal any girl's heart. He soon walked over to Christy. I could hear their conversation.

"So you're the new girl I've been hearing about," Roman said.

"Yeah, that's me," Christy replied.

"So you want to get out of this place and go some place more secluded?"

"As thrilling as you may think that may be, I'll have to take a pass."

Christy then tried walking away but then Roman put his arm out, stopping Christy. I then got up and started to walk over to them.

"Are you refusing me?" Roman sounded shocked, just wait until I get to him.

I was practically right behind him.

"Now if you don't want to get hurt, you would let me go," Christy threatened.

"You think you're going to hurt me?" Roman laughed.

"She might not," I said. "But I might."

Roman turned around and looked at me.

"You? Roman asked. "You think you're going to hurt me?"

"Oh yeah."

"We'll see about that, Emo Boy."

"I bet you hit as girly as all the bitches you've supposedly banged."

I let him have hope. He swung and hit me right in the cheek. I have high pain tolerance, so I could take a lot of hits before I'm out. I could already feel the adrenaline rush over. Another swing, but this time I blocked it and threw a punch. It connected with his left eye, he stumbled back into the wall. Before he could even react, I had him pinned with my hand on his throat.

"Face it Lysander, you can't win them all," I said.

"I don't even care anymore," Roman sounded upset. "I can already tell that she is going to be a bitch anyway."

I pushed my hand down on his throat harder.

"YOU SHUT YOUR DAMN MOUTH BEFORE I RIP YOUR TONGUE OUT!" I roared at him in rage.

Roman was really starting to struggle for air. I felt a gentle hand touch my shoulder.

"Ben stop," It was Christy. "You've made your point, there's no need to kill him."

I let go of Roman's throat. He gasped for air. I stepped outside and took a left and hid behind the corner at the beginning of the alley squares around the diner. I waited to hear the door open. I heard it open and looked around the corner and saw that it was Roman, he took a right off to the end and turned into the alley. I reached into my pockets, pulled out the gloves, and out them. I then pulled out the knife and gripped it tightly. I made my way around the back and over to the other side. I saw Roman smoking, his back towards me. I swiftly and silently ran over to the dumpster behind him. I hid behind and peeked over the side. He didn't hear me. I got back up and walked up behind him. I realized it was dark enough and the street lights weren't turned on yet. I grabbed Roman's shoulder, whipped him around and drove the knife deep in Roman's stomach.

"You son of a bitch," Roman said before he started coughing up blood.

"I hope you remember this face in hell you man whore." I said as I took the side of his head and smashed it off the diner wall. "Repulsive pig."

You did the right thing Ben, Jason said.

You killed a man who has wronged you and Christy. Jay added. There will be more. Now take care of the body and hide the evidence.

I gently placed the body next to the dumpster, careful not to get blood on myself. I took my gloves off and stuffed the knife in one of them. I walked back around the diner and headed toward my car. I put the gloves in the back seat and walked back inside the diner. Christy and the others were waiting for me at the booth. I made my way over to them.

"You alright Ben?" Christy asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine," I answered. "Roman left but I bet he'll come back for food or someone else."

"Yeah so I already paid," Shawn stated.

"You didn't need to do that," I replied. "How much was it?"

"Fifty dollars."

I reached into my pocket and pulled out my wallet.

"No," Shawn said.

"No what?" I asked.

"I don't want to take your money. Besides, you're going to need it."

"Well where to next?"

There was a pause.
