Sequel coming soon~...
The subjects were screaming in agony and begging for mercy but the masked figure did not stop the torture.
He was laughing and singing as they cried and begged.
What was even terrifying was how much the spectators were willing to pay to watch more or how much they encouraged the act even offering special requests and suggestions to be added to further cause pain to a subject.
"How many hostages in total do they have?" The doctor asked with a blank expression.
To others he would seem cold and emotionless but I knew he was trying to come up with a plan.
One of my special abilities was being able to read anyone easily. I could read hidden emotions and feelings like an open book.
He was afraid and his hands shook slightly, angry and grieved as his eyes were filled with sadness and rage.
"Don't worry doc... We will get them." I said.
He smiled sadly.
Rodriguez began typing at his computer. "uh.. There were 25 subjects initially but.."
"What are the casualties?" Doc asked.
"20 dead... Only 5 could live through the experiments" Rodriguez said as his eyes filled with pain.
"Th.. They... How can they do something like that to them?" Miranda asked as tears streamed down her cheeks.
No one had an answer.
"We are really near to finding the location. It would be done by day after tomorrow. Why don't you all take a break till then." someone else from cybers recommended us.
I nodded.
That night I could not sleep. My eyes were wide open as I looked up the ceiling and thought of the video that I saw.
Whyyyy... Whyyy are you doing this?
S.. Stop please.. It hurts.. stop please
A.. Anything... I will do anything just please stop.
Stop please... I can't... Anymore...just Kill me...please.
Pl.. Please just... Just kill me.. Please.. Just let me die... Pl.. Please...let me... D.. Die...please.
I could still hear their voices crying and begging and screaming.
" What's wrong hun?" my wife Lavinia asked with concern.
She was the most beautiful and kindest person in the world. Long brown hair and blue-grey eyes. She was a calming presence in the chaotic world I lived in.

God...I really love her so much. If anyone harms her or Amy... I... Couldn't even begin to imagine something like that... That subject was Amy's age... I still couldn't get her screams, begging for mercy and desperate sobbing out of my mind...
"...oney... Un... Hun.." Lavinia's voice broke me out of my thoughts.
"Is it the case?" she asked as her eyes gazed into the depths of my soul. I could not look away from her eyes.
I choked a sob and nodded.
"come ere darling" she said and embraced me. "it's gonna be alright... I know you will get them" she said softly and slowly ran her hand across my hair, calming me down.
"Shhh.. Its okay" she said and lightly kissed my forehead.
After I finally calmed down she asked "Wanna talk about it honey?"
I looked away from the deep kindness, love and empathy that radiated from her warm smile.
I really love her so much and will do anything to keep her and Amy safe from all monsters.
I looked away.
"Its.. Its just this case. Its horrible what they go through and one of the victim reminds me of A.. Amy." I said slowly.
"Aww hun. That must have been horrible. Amy and me... We are not going anywhere alright. No one's going to dare to hurt us... Not when we have a big tough Fbi agent protecting us right here" she said and gave me a playful smile which always made my heart race and made me blush and turn red like a tomato.
I suddenly looked startled. "A.. Amy where is she?" I asked frightened.
"Relax dear... She slept early today... She wanted to get up early for her birthday tomorrow."
Oh.
Her birthday! How could I forget! I was going to buy her the Teddy she wanted.
"don't worry... I bought the Teddy." Lavinia smirked and showed me a blue and pink wrapped gift.
I knew she could read minds. She was a retired therapist. So she was really good at all the brain psychology stuff.
"And no.. I didn't read your mind. You just told me a million times of how you were going to surprise her with the teddy." she laughed.
Yup she definitely read my mind just now.
"Go to sleep now dear... It's going to be a long day tommorow."she said.
"C.. Can I hold your hand?" I asked nervously.
It always calmed me down and helped make the nightmares go away.
She held my hand and said seriously "This one's that bad huh?"
I nodded slowly. The words choked in my throat and I could not say anything.
"don't worry... I am right here by your side till you wake up." she said and squeezed my hand softly in assurance.
It was strange how she could break all my barriers and make me open up so easily.
Must be a therapist thing.
When I am with others, I was able to hide my emotions and wear a mask of indifference but when she is by my side all walls break down and my heart and soul opens up to her.
It was a nice feeling.
I smiled and squeezed her hand back softly.
I felt my eyes losing the will to stay awake and I slowly drifted off to sleep.
There were no more nightmares or worries when I held her soft, warm and comforting hand.
I had a peaceful and calming dream that made me feel safe and loved.
Her presence was warm and comforting and made me feel very very safe.
