Jon's P.O.V

I didn't expect that level of cruelty from you, Delirious. Maybe you are growing into the perfect puppet, my little pet.

You were going to be given only $1m for his death, but that level of creativity deserves a reward.

You should now have $1.3m and I will give you a break after this next kill.

Don't screw it up, Delirious, you need to be quick and effective.

Target: Brian (TheGamingTerroriser)

Upon Death by your hands: $2.1m

Be quick, be quiet, and be effective. Do a good job and you will be rewarded. Do a bad job and you will suffer the consequences.

Time is ticking my puppet.

From,

Your Master.

I put the letter back down on my bench, the light grey of the paper contrasting against the dark speckled grey of my stone bench. This is so bad. We don't have a choice anymore, and Luke is back today. What do we do?

Fucked if I know.

What? You can see the future or some shit, right? So, see the future and see how we get out of this?

Correction: I can see a possible and most likely future. Also, I used to be able to. [MISSING TEXT] has dampened my abilities. He can take over us at any time. He is in control, not either of us. I wouldn't be surprised if we weren't able to even try to stop anymore. He has re-written our brain's coding already. We are both physically unable to fight back anymore. We are fucked.

How is that even possible?

I don't know.

...

...

What happens when they are all dead?

What do you mean?

When we've killed all my friends, what happens next?

How would I know?

You're smarter and more observant than I am.

He'll probably kill us. We will have reached our use by date.

So, when it comes down to it, we'll die?

It's likely but probably won't happen. He is the type to keep a completely loyal slave as a pawn in the game.

Really? But this is [MISSING TEXT] we're talking about. He's one of my best friends... I don't believe it's him... It can't be...

LOOK AT THE EVIDENCE JON! It has to be [MISSING TEXT] that's the only person it could be. I know he means a lot to you... he meant a lot to me too... but that's in the past now. He's controlling us and there's nothing we can do. [MISSING TEXT] is in control. There's no chance for resistance.

You-you're right. I wish you weren't but you're right. I'm sorry Delirious.

It's okay. We're both scared.

We have to stay useful then. We need to go kill Brian. Together.

Together.

Cartoonz' P.O.V

I got into my car that I had left at the airport and drove my way to Jon's house. Well, that was an interesting flight home. I need to go pick up my precious Princess and check in with the guys. I got there just as my best friend was leaving, a determined look on his face.
