Nightterror and Will Grossman

Chapter Nineteen

Everyone sat in the limo, in awkward silence.
Laughing Jack's neck and head were pressed against the top of the car. He didn't seem to mind it though. Jill sat next to him swinging her feet, talking to herself, or humming.
Will sat next to Terror, who sat next to Jacob.
Will leaned on Terror's shoulder a little, though he could tell Terror was confused on how to feel.
"So we were really a thing?" asked Terror, in an almost silent whisper.
"We are a "thing," Will whispered back. "Once you get your memory back you'll see."
Terror frowned a little. "Okay..."
Will held Terror's hand, intertwining their fingers together, Terror surprisingly accepted and held onto Will's hand as well.
Will smiled a little, lights of billboards and buildings pasted. They would look better at night though.
Will leaned into Terror, and Terror smiled a little.

Will woke up to Terror shaking him gently. "Hey," he said. "We're here."
Will rubbed his eyes and yawned. "Oh, okay."
Will got out to see a huge mansion tower over him. A sculpted horse made out of a huge bush like plant, stood off to the side in a garden of flowers and other shaped bushes, and little statues.
"Wow..." said Will. "This place is huge."
"Ooooh horsey!!" said Jill, pointing at the horse while jumping up and down.
"Don't go off the path," warned Jacob.
They walked toward the door, suddenly three, three headed dogs ran up to them snarling.
Terror growled back a little. The dog's eyes were red, their fur was black brown and, they looked to be like the breed of a Boxer.
Jacob whistled ear piercingly, and the dogs ears perked then laid down, submissive.
"Of course dad teaches you that," hissed Terror.
Jacob stayed silent, and lead them up to the door.
He knocked on the door, and a few seconds the door opened to a man in a black and white tux opened the door.
"Ah, Jacob," he said.
"Hey Jackson," said Jacob. "We're here to see Dad."
Jackson scanned everyone.
"And who are they?" he asked, pointing to Will, Laughing Jack, and Jill.
"They're friends," said Jacob.
"Your father wouldn't be pleased with you making friends with these... What are they?" asked Jackson.
"They're regular murderers Jackson," said Jacob. "Don't sweat it."
Jackson frowned a little. "Hm okay," he said, stepping aside. "Please clean your feet before coming in."
They walked into a huge room, off to the right side there was a fire place, a luxurious leather couch, and a big coffee table.
Paintings hung everywhere on the walls, a family painting hung at the left wall.
A man with black clean cut hair, and wearing a black tux stood above and behind, a beautiful woman with black hair and wore a glittery silky blue dress, and Jacob stood to the right of her.
But where was Terror?
Will looked at it, Terror stood next to him arms crossed.
"Where are you?" he asked. "And didn't You have a sister?"
"Jacob has always been the favorite child," said Terror, anger in his voice. "Dad hates me, but my sister use to be the favorite before Jacob, then she let our parents down." 
"Why does your Dad hate you?" asked Will, turning to him.
"He thinks Im weak," said Terror. "A failure."
Will hugged his arm. "Well then he's blind, your amazing Terror, don't forget that."
Terror smiled. "T-thanks." He hugged Will.
Will hugged back.
Jacob smiled, watching them, Laughing Jack was next to him holding Jill's hand.
"They're cute together, aren't they?" said Jacob.
"Yeah," agreed Laughing Jack. "They are cute, very cute."
Jacob chuckled a little. "Well, Jackson is getting my father, be prepared for a lot of rudeness and smartassery."
Laughing Jack cackled. "Hmm sounds fuuun."
"Fun fun fun!!" said Jill, jumping up and down. "I like fun!"
Jacob chuckled and kneeled to her level and smiled. "I bet you do," he said. "Here you want a few toys?"
"Yes, please!" said Jill, happily and smiling toothily.
Jacob held up his empty hands, then put them behind his back and revealed them having two dolls in the left and little nick nacks for the dolls.
"Oooh!" Jill took them. "Thank you!"
She ran off to a corner, sat down, then started playing.
Laughing Jack watched she ran off, smiling.
Jacob looked at him. "Heh..."
Laughing Jack looked at him. "Thanks."
"No problem," said Jacob. "Though right now a toy store is missing two dolls."
Laughing Jack chuckled.
Suddenly a black portal appeared in the middle of the room.
Terror hissed, and had Will stay behind him. Laughing Jack and Jacob watched, eyes narrowed.
The same man from the picture stepped out of the portal.
The portal disappeared leaving the man.
"Stay behind me," Terror whispered to Will.
"Okay," Will whispered back.
"Jacob," said the man. "What brings you here?"
"We need your help," said Jacob.
"On what?" asked the man, displeasure in his voice.
"Terror's brain has been damaged," said Jacob.
"It already wasn't?" asked the man.
Terror snarled. "Really!?"
The man ignored him. "How?" he asked boredom in his voice, not a hint of concern or worry in his voice.
"He was wounded," said Jacob. "His heart stopped in the human hospital, and they had to shock him four times. The forth damaged his hippocampus."
The man rubbed his chin. "Who wounded him?"
"Um..." Jacob looked at Will, who was still behind Terror.
The man looked at who he was looking at. "Hm... Why is that midget hiding?"
"Midget!?" said Will. "For your information I am average!!"
The man hid his displeasure, with a smirk.
"Is he the one who did it?"
Terror put Will behind him again, and growled at the man.
"Now now Leon," said the man. "Im not going to hurt him! He seems important to you, trust me he'll feel no pain when I snap him in half."
Will's eyes widened in surprise, then he shuffled more behind Terror.
"Over my dead body," hissed Terror.
"As you wish," said the man, his body changing to pitch black and growing in size.
He grew fur on his back, he had razor sharp claws on both hands, his eyes had turned black fully, and he grew a long dragon like tail.
Jacob and Laughing Jack jumped and sprinted back out of the way, before the tail lashed.
"Ah shit," said Jacob.
Terror turned into the monster Will had seen before, but was only sixteen feet tall. His father was now twenty.
They roared at each other.
Suddenly Jacob turned, his body shaped into a bulky dragon's, his wings grew out to twenty three feet, his tail lashed behind him.
"So both of my children turn on me?" asked Father. "How disappointing."
"Your the one who raised us like this!" said Terror, he rapped his tail around Will carefully, and set him away from the battle.
Laughing Jack grabbed Will and Jill and carried them up the stairs to watch.
"Keep him away from you!!" yelled Terror. "He wants Will!"
Father got ready to launch up to them when Jacob roared and blew flames on him.
Father screamed and racked his claws against Jacob's scales.
Terror grabbed one of Father's arms and bit into it, then stabbed the other with his tail.
Terror's venom in his barb could paralyze three elephants instantly, but his venom had little effect against his father.
"Get off me you insolent children!!" yelled Father, he bit down on the back of Terror's neck, and threw him into a wall, cracking the marble. Terror yelped on thee impact and got up.
Father grabbed Jacob's jaws as he tried to lunge. Terror jumped on his back and bit into Father's spine on the back on his neck.
"Gah!!" Father slammed his back against the marble wall, making Terror shriek in pain. He didn't stop tearing into Father's back though. Father slammed his back against the wall again, and Jacob bit down on his leg.
Father roared in pain slammed Terror against the wall, harder and he fell off.
"Terror!" Will cried from the top of the stairs.
Laughing Jack grabbed him and ran into the hall with both him and Jill.
Father grabbed Jacob lifted him then slammed him down on the floor.
"I didn't think you could disappoint me even more," hissed Father, then he launched up onto the stairs and ran after Laughing Jack.
"No...!" Terror tried to stand but fell, he spat out blood and then propelled his broken body up the stairs after Father.
Father ran out into the back garden where there was a big maze. Laughing Jack had hid in there with Will and Jill, hugging them with his arms.
Father roared and entered the maze.
A few minutes later Terror went in, he went left, right, right, left. He could never figure the maze out when he was a child, even now the mazes walls towered over him. He turned left, he followed Will's scent, something his father couldn't do.
He turned and saw Laughing Jack huddled in a corner hiding Will and Jill in the leaves.
Terror sighed relieved they were okay.
Suddenly Father slammed into him and stabbed his claws into his shoulders.
Terror roared in pain, and started continuously stabbing his barbed tail into his back.
Father roared and bit into Terror's neck. Terror thrashed underneath him and claws his sides, but Father's bite didn't loosen.
Suddenly Will broke a huge branch over Father's back. The surprise made him lose his hold on Terror's neck, and Terror stabbed his claws into Father's eyes.
Father screamed, as Terror stabbed his claws further in. His claws slipped and were buried into Father's head, he fell limp.
Terror pulled his claws out and laid still, breathing hard.
Will pushed off the body and looked at Terror's neck, it was flowing out blood, and the teeth marks were deep.
"You'll be okay..." said Will, uncertainty in his voice. "You'll be okay."
Terror looked at him, he was turning weak fast, blood flowed from open wounds, he was internally bleeding in his back and stomach.
Jacob ran over in human form, he had dozens of bruises on his arms and rest of his body. "Terror!"
He kneeled next to him. "You killed dad?"
Terror was slowly turning back into human for. "Y-yeah..."
"Who's going to heal him then?" Will looked at Jacob.
"Father's power will transfer to one his heirs," said Jacob. "Then they have the same power as he did. Hopefully I'll get it before..."
He looked at Terror, who was now in human form.
Will held Terror's hand, Laughing Jack put his hand on his shoulder.
Terror closed his eyes and let his head rest against the grass. His breathing was shallow, and jagged.
Suddenly Jacob started breathing hard, he stumbled back his veins were glowing black, his eyes turned red. He screamed and fell to his knees holding his head.
After a few seconds his veins went back to normal, and his eyes turned back to brown.
He stood shakily. "Its done..."
"Heal Terror!" said Will.
Jacob placed his hand on Terror's bruised chest, and his palm glowed purple.
Terror stopped bleeding out and stopped bleeding internally, his insides mending back together.
Terror gasped, he could feel everything.
Jacob took his hand away a few minutes later. Will propped Terror's head on his lap, he had passed out while Jacob was healingm him.
Will ran his fingers through Terror's hair, he whispered to himself reassuringly.
Laughing Jack hugged Jill, who had buried her face into him. "Scary man dead?"
"No," rasped Laughing Jack. "He's...just taking a nap."
"Oh..." said Jill. "Will he wake up?"
"I-i don't know," said Laughing Jack, looking at Terror's limp, passed out body. "I hope he will though."
"Me too," said Jill. "I liked scary man."
Laughing Jack smiled sadly.
Jacob walked to them, and Jill hugged him. Jacob looked down at her surprised, then smiled a little and hugged back. "Scary man will be okay, Jill."
Will ignored them and stayed with Terror on his lap. He watched his face, searchingly.
"Will," Jacob called. "He may not wake up for a while, let's him back to the apartment."
Will swallowed and nodded. "Y-yeah, that might be best."
Will helped Jacob Carrie Terror through the mansion and back into the limo. The driver was gone so Jacob sat in the driver's seat.
"You sure you can drive?" asked Laughing Jack, buckling in Jill.
"Yeah," said Jacob, his voice was shaky but he did his best to be calm and strong.
Laughing Jack sat in the passenger seat next to him.
Will laid Terror down on the bottom of the car, and sat down there as well.
"Everybody good?" asked Jacob.
"Yeah..." said Will. "Drive."
Jacob started the car and drove away from the mansion.

Will laid curled up next to Terror on his bed, in Laughing Jack's apartment. He held Terror's hand, and had his other resting on Terror's chest.
Jacob closed the door and sat next to Laughing Jack.
Jill sat in front of the couch playing with her new dolls. She had dressed them in pretty dresses, but the colors seemed to have been bleached.
"Jacob do you want to play with me?" she asked.
Jacob glanced at Laughing Jack, who was watching her.
"Actually can you go see if you can cheer up Will," he asked. "He seems sad right now."
"Sure!" said Jill, then she quietly walked into Will's room then closed the door.
Jacob looked at Laughing Jack.
"Didn't want to play with her?" he asked.
"No," said Jacob. "I wanted to play with you."
"Hm!?" Laughing Jack looked at him. "What do you mean?"
Jacob kissed Laughing Jack. "That," he whispered.
Laughing Jack turned away as red color came to his cheeks. "Do you have a concussion or something?"
"No," said Jacob. "Im perfectly minded right now."
Laughing Jack looked at him.
Jacob kissed him again, and Laughing Jack kissed back.
Laughing Jack leaned against Jacob, making him lay down on the couch. He kissed him again.

Jill laid down next to Will. "Hi," she whispered.
"Hi Jill..." Will whispered back. "What are you doing here?"
"I wanted to cheer you up," she said. "Since scary man can't right now."
Will smiled, and hugged her. "Thank you."
"I think Jacob and brother are playing together," she said.
Will's eyes widened then he blinked away his surprise. "Hm okay."
Jill yawned and closed her eyes. "Goodnight..."
She fell asleep.
Will smiled. "Goodnight, Jill." then he closed his eyes and slept.
