Mr. Murderer

10

Recap: Dr.Linn's office.
"Yes..I...I'm..h..h..here." I managed to say the full sentence with a horrible stutter. I shook with awe and was ready to tell him my story.

Dr.Linn

I went out of the room to clear my mind. Back then me and the boss were friends, he knew about my family issues and wanted to help. My father was abusive and the boss felt bad for me, to think he grew up in a loving household, you'd be surprised to see how he turned out. I couldn't just leave him, I know what he's doing is wrong, but we already fault before because I told him not to harm the players. He used to beat them so badly and toss them to me to fix up. I told him he needed to change the rules, I didn't get many people here at the infirmary because they mostly die. It's not a good thing, but I can't leave the boss. My father used to come home for work and instantly pull off his belt and rush after me, I hid and hoped he couldn't find me. He always found me. I went to school with bruises covering me, I used to layer clothing so no one could see, but the boss did. He came to me with worried eyes and was extremely interested in what I had to say. We became close and I stayed over a lot. I started to notice change in him though, he'd bully other kids and did things I'd never imagined a kind hearted boy could ever do. I don't think he knew that I knew what he did, he would sleep with everyone he got his hands on. I mean it wouldn't be such a bad thing, I just... I don't think it was healthy to be in such relationships. Then in our senior year there were many parties and he would grind on everyone and get so drunk and I had to take care of him after. I didn't think it was that bad though because he saved me from my dad. I stayed over so much, I basically moved it, my dad never even called me. My mother left because she knew he was abusive, she took me with her, but her job wasn't the best, and she was unstable. She sent me back to him.

He's a horrible person. When I was back the only person that helped me was the boss. Whenever he had a hang over I was there to help him, like he helped me. We got closer and closer over the years, and we never split apart. He's my only friend.

Jerry's POV

The officer continued to speak.

"So, your emergency, what is it?" He said professionally. I looked around and quickly answered.

"You have to save us, there's 8 of us, please." I said without any stutter.

"Are you alright? What is going on?" He asked and I answered with 'I'm fine, we've been kidnapped and forced to do things...'

"Oh, really you're fine? Huh, Jerry." I fell to my knees with the phone still on my ear. I couldn't think properly. I didn't tell the officer my name, so this must not be an officer.
The voice suddenly changed to the deep grim voice I remember.

"You should probably run, I'm extremely angered." The old man said and hung up the phone. I didn't know what to do, there was no where to hid. I can't go through that torture again, I can't! I ran into a bathroom and there was a window, I stood there and stared at it. Damn it! There's no way I can fit through there even with all the weight I lost. My stupid ass tried anyways. I unlocked the window and opened it as fast as I could, I knew this would be difficult so I locked the bathroom door and tried my best to get through the window.

Alex's POV

I was walking back in forth across the room, Jerry isn't back and I'm worried. Why wouldn't they bring him back? I miss him, and I want to be with someone. This room is so lonely. The walls were tan and they had scratches on them, the carpet was grey and torn up on the edges. There are no windows and it's a small room, the only nice thing in here is the bed. I'm happy it got replaced who knows what people did here. I sat down on the bed while looking at the ceiling as I heard the older man's foot steps come close to the door. This is the first time I felt happy to hear them, he must have Jerry. The man was at the door and I heard the keys clang against each other, then I heard a key jam into the door and I sat up. The man wasn't wearing a mask this time and walked in, Jerry wasn't with him. He closed the door behind him and sat down next to me. The silence was starting to bug me so I broke it.

"Umm... Where's Jerry?" I said in a small voice. The older man just sat while looking Down and then slowly turned towards me.

"Jerry? Why is he so important to you?" He asked. I looked over at him and he wouldn't look into my eyes. He needs to shut up and fucking tell me, this is awkward as hell.

"He's important because I love him. Is he coming back? I need to see him." The man stood up and then our eyes finally met and he crouched down in front of me.

"So, you're saying that this game is bringing you and Jerry closer together?" The older man said it an emotionless voice. I scooted over about two inches from him and began to speak.

"Yeah, so? Just let me see him." This damn fool is getting on my nerves. He got up and left the room. He didn't slam the door, but he did lock it again. I just sat there confused as hell, why does he care about Jerry and me? Sick bastard.

Jerry's POV

I was half way through the window when my ass got stuck. Damn it! I tried to get through and I looked down at the maybe three feet between me and the ground. I wasn't familiar with the area, but it couldn't have been far. I mean, it didn't take the old man long to get here, or did it. I was intoxicated and I don't really remember. I turned my body side ways to try and get out, but the door slammed open and it was Dr.Linn.

"What the hell, I left you alone for 5 minutes. Get down from there before I get the boss." He looked stunned and so did I, the boss?

"Haha, the boss? That has to be the funniest thing I've heard yet." I said chuckling as I attempted to slither out. Dr.Linn grabbed my legs to pull me back in.

"The boss is already on his way, he's going to fucking kill me. I'm trying to flee, let me go ya bastard." To my surprise his grip weakened, but he still tried to pull me in. I just let go and let him pull me in. I started laughing hard and then I punched the wall with my left hand.

"Ah fuck! Hey doc, what was that sudden weakness?" I asked really interested in what made him soften after what I said.

"The boss is on his way. Get ready, do as he says, or he will kill you." He actually looked concerned. I'm confused as hell.

Well. That's a bit confusing. What's going on with Dr.Linn and the boss? Comment :) Hope you enjoyed. Word count: 1307.
