Nightterror and Will Grossman

Chapter Thirteen

Will woke up, Terror was asleep but held him to his chest.
Will looked back at Terror. "Wake up so I can move."
Terror stayed asleep.
Will kissed him, making him wake up. Terror kissed back.
"Yesh your awake," said Will.
Terror chuckled.
Terror let Will go.
"Im free!" Will rolled off the bed.
Terror laughed.
Will stood. "Im hungry."
"Why are you so energetic that you had to fall off the bed?"
"I don't know," said Will. "Don't question it."
Terror rolled his eyes with a smile.
There was a knock on the door. "If you want breakfast come out of your hiding hole," said Jacob, behind the door.
Terror sat up, rubbed his eyes, stood and turned to Will.
Will covered his eyes. "Put on a shirt, you idiot!"
"Idiot!?" Terror flicked Will's forehead playfully. "Fine butthead."
Terror opened his pack and put on a blue muscle shirt.
"That's barely covering you up," complained Will.
"Would you like me to put on a thick ass shirt?" asked Terror, sarcastically. "Then you'd see nothing."
"No," said Will. "Im just saying that's all."
"Come on," said Terror, chuckling and opening the door.
Will still had on his clothes from yesterday, he messed with the collar of his coat and walked into the hall.
Terror stepped outside with him and went strait into the kitchen, down the hall with Will.
The kitchen was right next to the dining room, the huge room could fit six trucks.
The kitchen had two counters, three fridges, two microwaves, and toasters, you know the stuff you absolutely need.
Jacob was sitting at the table eating, with two other plate settings in front of him.
Terror sat in front of him with Will.
Jacob looked horrible. He had dark circles under his eyes, his hair was uncombed, he looked exhausted, and it made him look older than he was.
"Hey, are you okay?" asked Terror, looking at him.
"Y-yeah," said Jacob, smiling weakly at him. "Just tired."
"Maybe you should sleep," said Will. "You look awful no offense."
Jacob chuckled darkly. "I know, but I have a lot of work to do, so I can't."
Terror shook his head. "I'll help you Jacob."
"No, you seriously don't have to Leon," said Jacob, looking up at him, alarmed. "It's okay."
"I'm helping you wether you like it," said Terror. "Or not."
"Ill help too," said Will, brightly.
Jacob smiled. "How good are you two on paper work?"

Terror put another paper on top of the foot tall, paper stack, and sighed. Jacob and Will were sitting at a desk writing.
All Terror had to do was place the papers in ABC order, Will wrote down the same report on copies of papers, Jacob did a different one.
"With all this shit," said Terror. "Im starting to think your no longer an assassin, Jacob."
"Heh," Jacob combed his hair with his hand. "Yeah, I still have targets here and there, but I usually don't do that anymore, not as much since..."
Jacob trailed off and looked sadly at Terror. Terror frowned and turned away.
Will looked at them. "Since what?"
"Um..." Jacob, sighed. "Terror do you want to tell him?"
"Well," scowled Terror. "We need to now!" He growled at Jacob. "I'll tell him."
Will looked at Terror, his eyes full of curiosity.
Terror sat down next to him. "When I was Nine," he said. "My family abandoned me, I had to survive by myself in the middle of a wild forest. When I turned ten I came back, to kill them. I killed my sister but Jacob...
He baited me to where I was defenseless and stabbed me in the back, his knife almost made its way into my heart. My dad healed me, and Jacob told me everything...was just a test. Some sick joke, it was all just to see how far, and bloodthirsty I was. Eventually I killed my Mother, but spared Jacob."
Will stared at him. "..."
Terror looked down.
After a few minutes of silence, Terror stood. "I'll leave..."
Terror opened the door and walked out, Will watching him blankly as he did.
His heart was racing. He really did that?
And Jacob...
Will looked at him.
He really did that to Terror?
But he seemed so nice...why do people always lie to me...?
Will laid his head in his arms on the desk. He was scared, sure everyone he had been around were monsters and murders but, they weren't as ruthless, scary, and bloodthirsty as Terror, and Jacob tell him they are. He wanted his friend Laughing Jack, he seemed to be the only one he could trust to not lie.
Will whimpered at the thought of his friend. Everything was simple there, in the UnderWorld, with his only friend.
A hand touched his shoulder, making Will jump.
Jacob looked at him, his look sympathetic.
"I know the story is bad," he said. "But we've changed, honestly I think you  might've changed Leon more. Don't hate him for what he did in the past, he's changed a lot since I last saw him. And I can tell he would never hurt you, on purpose."
Will looked at him, but looked away almost instantly. "And you...?"
"I'm barely a killer now," said Jacob. "I never wanted to be one anyways."
Will stood and walked out, but stopped at the doorway. "Are there any good trails in the near by forest?"
"Yeah a few If you go out there be careful," said Jacob. "Its easy to get lost."
Will nodded and walked into the hall. Terror was in the back yard leaning against the railing.
Will walked to the front door and opened it. He walked outside and went into the forest right next door. He looked down as he walked on a trail.
Why did Terror's family abandon him, why with the stupid test.
They made their own death's happen.
Wait...
Terror didn't mention his dad, only that he healed him. So is the dad alive? Or did Terror kill him too?
Why did Terror spare Jacob?
Why. Why. Why. Why!?!?!
Will growled, then sighed. His feet crunched as he stepped on fallen leaves, now that Will thought about it, it was getting colder as he went deeper into the forest.
He rubbed his arms, good thing he had his hoodie and coat. He took a pair of black, brown gloves out of his pockets and put them on.
He looked behind him.
He couldn't see the hill or the mansion.
How far has he gone? Will looked around him. Every tree looked the same, white barked with brown cuts, and red leaves.
He looked down at his feet, he had gone off the trail.
"Fuck fuck fuck," Will looked around for the trail.
He found nothing near by, besides rocks and a few deer that ran away.
"Shit..."

Terror walked back inside, and went to the office, where Jacob was still doing work.
But he didn't see Will.
"Hey, where's Will?" asked Terror.
"He went into the forest for a walk," said Jacob.
"What!?" exclaimed Terror.
"He'll be fine," said Jacob. "I told him to stay on the paths."
"Jacob, he doesn't know which forest is safe!" Terror slammed his fist down on the desk. "He could have gone into the endless forest."
Jacob looked up at him. "Oh shit..."
Terror sprinted out into the hall, and ran out of the front door. A second later Jacob was with him.
"You go to the safe one," ordered Terror. "I'll go into the endless forest."
They nodded to each other than off.

Will growled at his phone, it wouldn't turn on, he was sure he had charged it all night.
Will sat under a tree, and hugged his knees to his chest. "Guess I'll just die of starvation, woohoo..."
Will buried his head in his legs. "Not unless they come and get me."
He smashed his phone against the tree. "Useless piece of crap."
The sun was already starting to set, the forest quickly grew dark.
Will grabbed a few twigs and logs laying around set them down, and grabbed parts of his destroyed phone.
He spat on part of it and it sparked lighting the twigs and logs.
He laid down next to the fire.

Terror scowled at how dark it was, he could still see Will tracks though.
Oh Will, I'm so sorry, I didn't think you'd be this afraid.
He heard low growls near by.
I need to hurry...!
He ran just as a wolf leaped from the dark, then retracted back in. The whole pack was following him.
He followed the tracks till he saw some light. Unfortunately the wolves saw it too and ran past Terror toward it, howling and snarling.

Will curled into a ball, hearing howls, growls and all kinds of animal screeches, and chitters.
Suddenly he heard near by crunching of leaves, he sat up. "Terror?"
A black wolf came into view.
Will shifted away as it walked forward.
Its eyes golden from the refection of the fire.  Will tried to kick it away, but it snapped at his leg, just missing it.
The wolf snarled and leaped. Will met it leap with a kick, the wolf fell with a yelp.
It almost instantly got up, and bit down on Will ankle.
Will cried out in pain.

Terror heard the cry, he ran faster. As he ran he started turning into a pitch black wolf, as big as a lion and had red eyes. He ran ten times faster than he did and the light drew closer, fast.
He finally saw wolves circled around Will, who was laying down, his ankle bleeding bad.
Terror leaped on the biggest wolf, the closest to Will.
They snarled at each other and circled, the rest of the pack gave them more space.
It was a duel.
Terror growled and snapped, showing his pearl white fangs.
The Alpha growled and bared his fangs, he was much smaller than Terror. If the Alpha backed down he knew Terror would still rip him apart, better to go down fighting over food.
Terror leaped at the wolf and bit down on his neck. Alpha kicked his stomach scratching deep into him.
Terror yelped and jumped back, Alpha snapping at him when he did.
Alpha got under Terror quickly and bit down on his throat. Terror hit him off with his paw and bit down on Alpha's leg breaking it.
Alpha yelped loudly and fell.
Terror put him paw down on Alpha's side holding him down, and slowly bit down on his neck. Alpha yelped a scream as Terror slowly broke his neck, and then went limp.
The pack looked at their fallen alpha and slowly backed away, their tails between their legs. They ran away, leaving Will and Terror alone.
Terror looked at Will, he was passed out.
Terror licked Will's ankle and it started to heal. He curled around Will protectively and laid down.
I've got him Jacob.
Okay.
