Devil's Night

One Last Blow

Chris POV

Moments passed without a single word said from either one of us and I just tuned out facing the floor. My vision and hearing began to blend and fade. My heart beating heavy in my chest, the drumming ringing through my ears. I could hear a muffled voice in the background of the breathing.

Suddenly I felt a forceful kick to my stomach, bring me back to the present second. My body was numb before that, I couldn't even feel the strain on my joints from being restrained my Rem's minion but everything came back with that one hit.

"Ugh God!" I groaned out as I felt another blow to my ribs. I could swear I felt them break.

Blinking a few times until my vision corrected itself, I looked up to see Rem's scowling face look down at mine.

"Did you not hear me? I asked you a question and I expect you to answer me the first time." He growled.

I brought my head down as I began to start violently hacking, trying to recover. I felt another aggressive blow to my ribs before I could even collect myself to answer his question. I remained doubled over, holding my midsection tight, feeling like I've been shattered into a million tiny pieces. My eyes were sealed shut and I was was gritting my teeth and attempting to breathe regularly to try to cope with the unbearable pain. I opened my eyes for a second to see that Rem has stepped away from he and was watching me suffer from a far. Through my scattered and shallow gasps, I heard a single click of his fingers and the Minion holding me released his grasp on me. I fell helplessly to the floor, hardly using my hands to catch myself and ready to blackout any moment.

"Now how will you repay me?" Rem asked in a snarky tone as if he just did me a favor by telling his guard to let me go.

I just layed there for a minute or so trying to muster up the strength and willpower to get myself up. Once I managed to get myself to my fours, I was immediately knocked down by a brutal kick square in the stomach. I collapsed on myself coaching so much I felt as if I was going to start throwing up blood any second now, I could already taste it.  All I could hear is a sadistic soft laughter in the background as I attempted to get back up again.

"You just won't quit now will you?" Rem smirked at the idea of me not giving in cause it meant more pain for me.

"You know who would enjoy this more than I am right now?" He rhetorically asked with a fake coo.

I looked up at him with tears streaming from my eyes and a facial expression with agony painted. He turned away from me and clapped his hands twice. I shuttered at the thought of having Ricky go though this too. I wanted to reach out to stop him from walking away. But my arm was completely stiff and wouldn't respond. The minion forced me up on my feet as I groaned at the ache throughout my body worsening as he carried me out, my body draped over one of their muscular shoulders.
