Striping chords

Mark looked up to Shane. A man who had always seemed so scared and so timid around him was now towering over him. A bat in hand and a glint in his eye.

The vampire opened his mouth to ask what was happening. But once more couldn't push out anymore then the air he could barely gather in his lungs.

Shane only smirked evilly at Marks failed actions. He walked around Mark, much like Jack would do. Shane didn't break eye contact with him nearly the whole time. The red head stopped in front of the half Korean. Without breaking eye contact he spoke.

" Make sure Jack can talk, will you?" Shane asked Felix.

The vampire complied and took the gag out of Jack's mouth. Shane turned to irishmen as he tired to use his own saliva to wet his dry mouth.

" What are you doing Shane? Why can you order Felix around?" Jack questioned.

Shane didn't say anything. Instead he used just half of his strength to bring the bat down on Jacks thigh. The man screamed briefly and tended all his muscles before collapsing back into the metal.

The red head glanced at Felix.
" I believe we have bonded over our mutual hate of you".

Mark made a grunt sound. His pitch heightening near the end. A question.

Shane whipped back over to Mark and pointed the very bat he's assisted Jack with at him.
" The three years you were gone Mark. I needed someone, Dan was too messed up. Jack was to busy pretending to be clean. That left Felix here".

" The night I stopped him from jumping from a bridge was the night we vowed to hunt you AND Mark down" Felix said, walking to the other side of the room.

" Why does Felix listen to you?" Jack asked Shane.

" Because I listen to him" The red head spat.
" Unlike every fucking person you've ever met, it's an equal relationship. I let him feed off of me, he helps me find and capture both of you".

Mark jolted in his chair, coughing up a little blood that still slept in his throat. His face held anger as he looked up at Shane.

" What do you want with us?" Jack asked.
" Why brag Mark into this?".

Shane chuckled, then bitch slapped Mark with all his might. Once again the vampires blood sprayed out of his mouth. Spraying over the metal components of the room.

" BECAUSE I WANT TO MAKE YOUR LIFE A LIVING HELL JUST LIKE YOU'VE MADE MINE A LIVING HELL!" Shane screamed.

The man stormed over to Jack and held his throat, just tightly enough to black blood flow, but not oxygen. Shane watched as Jack struggled, his face starting to turn red.

" You're going to pay for what you did to Dan, Tyler, me, Felix, not to mention Mark, Ryland and so many others" Shane spat.

" Ryland asked me" Jack chocked out, barely able to form words.

Shane let go of him, a sour look on his face.
" Just because he asked you, doesn't make it any less wrong".

The red head walked into the middle of the room. His bat twirling in his hands. He gaze moved from Mark to Jack. Then rested on Felix.

" Which one do you want?" Shane asked.
" My preference in Jack, but I would love to sink my teeth a vampire".

Felix chuckled and sat on the table. Crossing his legs and holding his hands in his lap, he leant back into the concrete walls with ease. He smiled evilly.

" I want to watch and I wouldn't mind having some left overs, I like them broken" He spoke winking at Shane.

Shane smiled, a small laugh passing through his lips. He handed the bat to Felix.
