LIFE

"You're Not Being Very Nice"

Scarlet:

"Hm, it seems to only come out when she's about to die or when he is hungry."

"I told you, but shouldn't there be a hole in her I mean that sniper rifle sounded deadly."

"There was, shes almost all healed now, but it's been a while. If we going to use her we need to figure out a way to enhance her abilities."

"Aren't we going to kill her anyway? Why make it harder?"

"He wants to play with her first. She might be strong but will never be stronger than him."

"Unless he who is inside her keeps on protecting her. No doubt he is the strongest of all he just doesn't know it yet."

"Are you questioning our master?"

"N-no I would never."

"Oh look you think she has been listening to our conversation this whole time?"

"I hope not."

"You hope not? What is this bitch going to do? Grab those rods and put them both through her skull and into her brain I will attach the wires on them. We need to start the torture process so she will be obedient."

"Aren't you afraid we will kill her?"

"Like you said he will protect her so no."

"Why do I always have to do the bloody parts you do it for once."

  "I'm afraid you don't know how to flip a switch to electrocute her."

I coughed up something that I thought was water. I felt like I've been here before. I looked around, all I could see is the black blood. No blood is thicker than this. Is it water? I realized I  was on top of a rock. There were a few torches on the walls. Black flames lit the torches and the dim light from them reflected on the water. 

I swallowed. For some reason, it was harder than normal. I touched my neck and found something like a collar with a chain leading behind me. I heard footsteps behind me. I turned to see him walking on the water. Was he Jesus now? He had the same thing around his neck. Oh hell no! Were we chained together?

"You."

He didn't say anything. Maybe because I just said "you" like an idiot instead of asking him a question. 

"Where are we?"

Nothing still. Did I need to speak Latin or something? I stood and walked towards him. I didn't get far because unlike him I couldn't walk on water. I also wasn't a good swimmer so I struggled back to the rock.

I sat on the rock and looked back at him. I could tell if he didn't have the mask on, his mouth would have been hit the floor now. His expression was funny to me for some reason. Now I knew he can't be all evil, it looks like he has some emotion in him. He stopped the are you a fucking idiot expression and started walking away again. 

"No wait. Can you tell me or hand signal whats going on? Who are you?"

He didn't even look back at me.

"Why did you kill my family? Do I have a brother?"

He finally stopped. 

"Maybe I should have killed you that night. How do you remember your sister? I thought I took that memory from you?"

"I remembered in a dream..... I think, or maybe my father told me. I don't really remember. I thought my father made me forget."

"No, the next morning you woke up like nothing happened and your dad was aking questions but soon he realized you forgot and used that as an opportunity to raise you normally. I was the one who took it away from you."

"You blow up buildings walk on water and take away my memories. What cant you do?"

"I can only walk on the water in here and pretty much anything I think."

"Well, why are we chained together?"

"What do you think we are?"

"Um I'm human and you're a demon?"

"No idiot, you think we are friends? As soon as I get all my strength back I will eat your soul but first, kill everyone you ever cared for."

"You're not being very nice."

He started to say something else but was so frustrated he pulled on his hair. Great my plan is working.  

"God now I see why he sealed me in you. He knew I would die of all of your empty-headed comments."

"How are you talking so clearly with that mask on?"

He palmed his forehead.

"Never talk to me again you stupid bitch."

"Look I know your not a bad guy so stop the act."

In a blink of an eye, his hand was around my throat. His whole mood changed. Now he is how I remembered him in the hospital. Maybe I said too much. He now terrified me. 

He lifted me up as his grip around my neck grew tighter. I couldn't breathe at all. I grabbed on to his arm and lifted myself up and kick him in the face. He threw me across the room. I hit the wall and fell into the water. I felt my cautiousness fade away. 

I swam to the top of the water coughing. I felt the back of my head and brought my hand around to my face to see my hand full of blood. I need to get on that rock before I pass out in the water but he is on it. Maybe there was another way out.

Something grabbed my foot and took me under the water. Before I knew it I was so far down in the water that there was no way I could make it up in time. Everything around me was dark. I couldn't see anything. I kept looking around me but saw nothing. 

I heard a loud crack behind me. I turned around to see the monster that never left my nightmares. I started screaming in terror and swam backward. It caught up to me and crawled into my mouth. I sunk as my body shook uncontrollably.
