Goggles
"What are you talking about?" I asked walking towards my room. "I haven't been visiting Rider, and I didn't smudge my aim."
"Don't lie to me Goggles," Specs said grabbing my shoulder and turning me around. My whole body froze. "I know you!"
Headphones and Bobble walked out of their rooms, confused and complaining.
"I'm done being bossed around by you Specs, I'm out." I turned to walk away but he tightened his grip on my shoulder.
"Hey," Bobble said walking over and shoving him, "leave him alone!"
Headphones stood next to her, blocking his path to me. "We're done being bossed around by you," she said crossing her arms.
"Oh really," Specs said reaching for her arm, his veins turning black as he did so, and the moment he touched her she fell to the ground dead.
"Headphones!" Bobble shouted kneeling next to her.
"She's dead," Specs said reaching for Bobble, just inches away from her head. "And if you don't do what I say, Bobble dies too."
I stared shocked, slowly raising my arms in surrender. "Okay, I'll do whatever you want, just don't kill her."
He smirked but didn't move his hand. "That's what I thought," he said as he grabbed her shoulder. "But she still dies anyway." Bobble fell onto her side, pale as a ghost. "Now," he began, "you're going to kill Rider, and this time, you're not going to fail." He took a few steps towards me until he was uncomfortably close. "Because if you don't, I'll kill him anyway, so in the end, he dies no matter what." He chuckled, his hand grazing against my cheek. "And as much as I would love to see the look on your face when he dies, I would love even more to see the look on your face when you're the one to kill him."
"You're a sick bastard," I said back away from him. My back hit against the counter.
"Maybe, but you're going to do this for me." He took a step towards me forcing me farther back against the counter. "Because if you don't, I will kill everyone you've ever loved, ever known, and ever even spoken to.
"You will have no one, except for me."
