Depth Of A Twisted Mind

Crooked Empire

Jack

I can't believe they would set me up like this...my own brother against me. I have so much backed up anger towards him. This is my opportunity to get back at him for all those years without him.

"Tonight just got a lot interesting. I've been waiting and prepping for this day to come. All that shit you've been talking and now I get to smash your face in for being such a shitty brother!"

Brody stood back as he stretched his right...then left arm. He had a smirk embedded on his face looking to see my demise. His own brother. Little brother at that...

"Boohoo, little brother...would you like me to grab you a tissue? Nothing excites me more than the mere feeling of punching you in the face. Tonight's sweet session with a certain someone got me feeling all kinds of way. If it wasn't for this fight, I wouldn't be suffering from a minor case of blue balls. I guess the color blue just goes with her name."

He gave me a wink as everything he said began to sink in. How the hell did he find out where she lived?

"What the fuck, man?! How the hell did you get her address? I told you to stay away from her!"

One of the guards stood between us, just to break up the confrontation brewing. Whatever happened to my brother that once stood by my side and taught me everything I know about defending myself. Our mom is probably turning over in her grave, upset of the outcome of her two boys.

I took a deep breath and closed my eyes...mentally preparing myself for a fight to prove my worth. Ron stood guarding one of the doors as we continued to exchange looks. Once again, I put my eyes back on an overly cocky, Brody.

Let's just get this shit over with.

Brody walked up to me moving his arms back and forth, and back before throwing the first jab. We continued to exchange blows with each other, each giving our all. Any pent up anger was released with contact. Brody never dropped eye contact as he looked me straight into my face.

"Listen up, Lil'bro and listen good."

My ears perked up as his facial expression softened up a little bit. I was curious as to what happened to the arrogant persona that he once had.

"You don't have to do this...you should've just stuck with what you knew, Jack. You're playing a dangerous game with the elites. I didn't want you here when shit went down."

I just continued to throw punches and a few kicks his way. There was no way that I would be falling for his shit. He fought with equal amount of energy as me. Onlookers looked and cheered us both on...obviously more of Brody's fan base than mine. I caught quick glances with the crowd as I was 110% sure, Raven would be out there but no signs of her.

Brody threw a punch that caught me off guard. I wiped the blood that began to run down my mouth. He still stood watching me over...quite pleased with himself.

"Are you finally gonna listen and pay attention to what I'm about to say?"

He's really adamant on giving me this "special info." The crowds loud cheers drowned out our voices, so I could only hear him.

"Ok, I know you think Bridgewater hired me...this is true, but not because he found me. I was sent here by someone else who knew you would be here."
