Deception: Siblings

Chapter 33 (Uncles)

Johnny was the first to open his eyes to Bash glaring down at him.
Johnny rubbed his eyes thinking he was still stuck in a dream but when Cam jumped and gripped his shirt was when Johnny realized this was no dream.
Bash looked like he was beat up too.
"When are you two going to realize you'll never escape me." Bash growled as he grabbed Johnny by the throat.
Cam tried to get Bash off his brother but Cam got one heck of a near knock out punch to his temple.
"There will be consequences for running away.
You think I am the only one with a pit to throw you two in?
Where do you think I got the idea from?"  Bash growled as he squeezed tighter.
Johnny's face was turning red as he was loosing air.
Cam whimpered helplessly alongside Johnny.
Jones was in there and was pinning Cam down so he couldn't help his brother.
Darkness enveloped Johnny as he lost consciousness.
Jones yank Cam out of the bed by his hair.
Cam's scream in pain gave Johnny a new found strength.
Johnny kicked Bash in his left knee cap the one Johnny injured when he was thirteen trying to get away from him.
Before Bash went to the hospital that day he was determined to put Johnny in the hospital especially because the boys tried to run away after...
......Past.....
After Johnny kicked Bash with all his strength in his knee folding it backwards, the crack of the bone turned Johnny's stomach but he had to get out and fast.
Johnny ran into the living room space where Cam laid crying on the rug after Bash beat him up.
"Come on!" Johnny hoisted Cam to his feet and forced him to the door.
Cam was across the threshold when Johnny felt his shirt being pulled hard against his throat as he was yanked back against Bash's chest.
Bash snaked his arm around Johnny holding him tight like a python with its prey.
With his free had Bash held the steak knife to Johnny's throat.
Cam stood between the elevator and stairs looking back at his brother in horror.
"Cam get back in here." Bash hissed as he pulled the knife tighter.
Cam could see it bit into Johnny's skin, a thin trail of blood ran down and settled on Johnny's white under shirt neck line.
Cam cried and shaked as he took a step but Johnny screamed at him to run causing Cam to step back.
"If you run you will never see each other again.
I will cut Johnny apart price by price keeping him alert and alive the whole time.
Than I will come after you, how long would you survive without John, Cammy?" Bash growled as he pulled tighter, this time Johnny screamed and cried from the sting of the blade cuting him.
Cam hung his head low.
"I'm sorry." Cam all but whispered as he walked towards them.
Bash dropped the knife and grabbed Cam by the hair with such force, tossing him into the room like a rag doll, Cam's head slammed into the corner of the table knocking him out cold.
Now Bash always made sure both boys had the same marks.
So Bash forced Johnny to the counter and slammed his head into the counter.
As Johnny laid on his back with his head on Cam's back trying to get he bearings Bash went to get the belt.
When he returned Johnny tried to move Cam who was still out.
At this point Bash didn't care which boy he hurt.
Johnny did his best to cover Cam with his own body.
When Bash stopped, Johnny was near passing out when he grabbed Johnny by the hair and drug him to the hole and tossed him in not even caring if he broke anything, than slammed the hatch shut.
Johnny sat there hugging his knees crying as he looked up and watched as Bash's shadow crossed the floor, his heavy footing filtered dirt down hitting Johnny in the face as he watched Bash stop at Cam.
Cam was still out cold when Bash kicked him in the side cracking his rib.
Cam screamed in pain so loud that any passerby on the street could hear it.
Bash even grabbed Cam covering his mouth by stuffing the dish towel in his mouth as Cam still screamed and cried as he bit down on the towel.
Bash held onto Cam from behind as he sat on the floor.
"Did we learn our lesson Cammy?" Bash hissed in his ear as he pressed on the cracked rib.
Cam cried and tried to scream as his head rested against Bash's chest.
Meanwhile Johnny was screaming to leave Cam alone.
"You better shut up John.
The more you yell the harder I will apply pressure." Bash growled as he dug in.
Cam was on the verge of passing out.
"Did we learn our lesson?" Bash hissed as he eased up.
Weakly Cam nodded his head.
"Good." Bash kissed the side of his head.
"Because next time I will stab one of you." Bash hissed as he rested his head against Cam's.
Bash ripped the towel out and took Cam to the hole and tossed him in with Johnny.
"You two earned a long time out." Bash grinned as he slammed it shut...
.....Present.....
When Johnny's foot made contact the knee folded back again.
This time Johnny attacked him.
Jones slammed Cam in the head knocking him out so he could help Bash.
Jones grabbed Johnny from behind swung him around pinning him to the bed.
"Get the syringe out of my pocket." Jones ordered.
Johnny cried as he struggled against Jones.
Bash jabbed the needle in and inject the contents that took over instantly.
Jones eased up as he felt Johnny relax.
He put him back into the bed took out another syringe and injected Cam.
"I told you to stay away from them!" Jones growled as he rammed his fist into Bash's gut knocking the wind out of him.
Jones started beating Bash like Bash would beat the boys.
Alex cried as he was helpless, locked in his room when his boys needed him, when his brother needed him.
Alex knew Bash is the way he is because of Jones.
After their caretakers died Jones was a tyrant when he had to come claim his orphan brothers.
Alex remembered the pit Jones left them in for months.
Barely feeding them, always yelling and hitting them.
Bash would get the worse of it.
Alex would try to stop Jones from hurting him.
One day Jones decided a new tactic he buddied up with Bash in his own sick way making Bash think it was away out from the abuse, the two started in on Alex.
Being just himself he planned his escape but failed so he eventually tried to be like them.
It worked till he met Scarlet, than he was done with them and thought he was finally out.
"I should have known better." Alex sobbed as he leaned against the wall and let himself slide to the floor.
"You two never learned who was incontrol." Jones smirked, he was standing in front of Alex glaring down.
Alex jumped as Jones went to crouch down infront of him.
"Except I think you learned baby brother." Jones smirked as he moved his brother's bangs.
"Why?" Alex all but whispered.
"You don't remember pop do you?" Jones smirked.
"Whatever he done to you two was child's play.
I think Bash remembers, he was six when he killed mam and himself.
You know he tried to kill you two but Bash took you and hid." Jones smirked.
"Me, well I remember everything I was ten when I ran away.
He would hang me from my shoulders by meat hooks for hours till I passed out.
Or hang me literally by the neck till I passed out, stretched me to near pulling me apart.
He did a lot more but its not relevant." Jones sighed.
Alex narrowed his eyes at Jones.
"Tell me...
Was everything Bash put them through his idea or yours?
Because I know you are the reason he went after my wife and kids.
Bash and me were getting along, he was realizing what you put us through was wrong.
He wanted to get help so he could be a good uncle.
But than you snatched him up like always and twisted your thoughts in his head." Alex snapped.
Alex jumped when Jones reached to touch him to look at the bruise on his cheek bone.
"I see Bash stopped to see you first." Jones smirked.
"Answer the question." Alex hissed.
"You already know the answer to that.
You and Bash now your places." Jones smirked as he grabbed Alex pulling him out into the hall.
"See now Bash will never harm them, unless I give the order.
I think he learned his lesson." Jones hissed in Alex's ear.
Bash was in a heep on the floor holding his stomach and coughing.
"I'm sorry Alex." Bash cried.
"What did you do to him?" Alex growled as he spun around to face off Jones.
"Don't make me kill you now." Jones smirked as he gripped his throat.
"Dad!" Johnny went to rush to the iron door but Bash stopped him by wrapping him in a bear hug pulling him to the ground ignoring his own pain.
"Trust me Johnny you can't help him, he will kill him if you try." Bash sighed in Johnny's ear.
Johnny could hear concern laced in Bash's voice.
Cam was next to them watching helplessly as Jones choked Alex.
"Jones that's enough.
You made your point." Bash finally snapped as he leaned on Johnny's shoulder for support to stand.
"What you finally care about our baby brother?" Jones gave an evil smirk.
"Maybe I should snap his neck like I did Scarlet's.
She was a sweet little thing." Jones taunted.
Causing all of them to realize he went after her.
"Jones what are you saying?" Bash had to know for sure.
"Exactly what you think I did.
The boys were there hidden in the trap door." Jones smirked.
"I grabbed them dropping them off with Bash.
Sending him instructions on what he was to do to them.
He knew I was watching and he knew if he didn't I would be worse.
If I had it my way I would have broke both their legs when they tried to run.
But Bash just beat them and threw them in the hole.
If it was me one of them would be a cripple by now." Jones grinned as he looked at Johnny who backed up into the side table.
"Your not touching him." Bash growled stepping in front of Johnny.
"You better keep him in line than.
Let's go Alex its time for your daily punishment.
Jones drug him down the hall to a door.
Alex begged and pleaded as Jones forced him into the room...
