To Love A Killer

Chapter 9

I will not stop our work. Your work. It will continue, I promise.' You thought. 'I promise'.

"Alright (Y/N), what would you like for you last meal tomorrow?" Officer Lance had asked. You smirked and looked at him with the most evil eyes. 

"I'd like the fresh corpse of a whore off the best block in town." He groaned and rolled his eyes at your request. 

"A normal meal." He rubbed his temples in frustration. This wasn't the first time he dealt with your crazy demands. Oh no, he has been dealing with them since you first arrived in this hell hole. 

"Fine, I want a nice juicy venison roast. Also, add in some cooked carrots and green beans. And the best bottle of wine the state can buy." You sank back onto your bed, resting your head against the gray concrete wall. Officer Lance wrote down what you wanted and walked away without uttering another word. He was just glad that you chose a normal meal. How did you get here you ask? It was really quite simple. You got caught. Yes, that's right, you got caught. You may have gotten a bit too cocky with your last kill. You frowned at the memory, you don't frown too often, but you felt horrible about letting Alastor down. You always try to keep smiling even through everything, like Al always said, 'You're never fully dressed without a smile'. 

Flashback

You stood out the police barracks, a knife to the thing neck of the whore you captured. Poor bitch was just looking for a pay when she asked you to sleep with her. With the knife pressed to her throat and a evil grin plastered across your face, you glared at the officers, all with a gun aimed at you. You weren't worried in the slightest, not after you been using the last three years to practice some voodoo magic. You had an escape spell playing in your head like a song on repeat. You pressed the dagger into the whore's neck a little harder. She whimpered and a small line of blood dribbled down her neck, staining the white blouse she was wearing a deep crimson. "Let her go, (Y/N)! We don't want to hurt you!" An officer shouted. Before you even let out a breath, you were on the ground with a gun pointed at your head. The whore ran off towards the line of officers and taken to a safe place. You growled through your smile, it faltered just a bit, but you wouldn't frown, no, you promised that you wouldn't. 

The trial came and went fairly quickly. You stood by with your court appointed lawyer, though he wasn't much help. He knew you did it. You confessed to it. You knew you wanted the death penalty, you wanted to see you beloved again. But did you get what you wanted? Of course you did. All the families of the victims of the people you and Alastor had killed, cheered and cried. They were happy you got the death sentence, and rightfully so. You had hunted, killed and consumed their loved ones, leaving nothing for the families to put to rest. All they got was the satisfaction of the horrible monster, finally getting the same fate.

End flashback

So here you are, five years after the trial, one day before you were supposed to be executed. One day before the eight year anniversary of Alastor's death. A date you had asked for per your final request. You sat on your stained spring mattress, head against the cold, dark grey wall, wondering what it will be like to die. To feel the rope around your neck, itchy, scratchy, to feel the drop as the floor gives out. Will it be a quick snap of the neck? Or will it not kill you right away, and you would be forced to suffer through the strangulation process, feeling your life being dragged out of your body? These were thoughts that ran through your mind as you slowly drifted off into anther sleep cycle, dreaming of the day you would finally reunite with Alastor. Another smile finally crept across your face, 'Soon my love, soon we will be together again.'

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

You woke up to the morning bell ringing. You rubbed your eyes and smiled, this was it. The final hours, the day had finally arrived. "Alright (Y/N), this is it. Lets get you to the shower and dressed. Your venison meal will be here once your done. " Officer Lance stated. You got up and walked to the cell door and stuck your hands through. Cuffs were then put on your wrists and the door opened. You were led to the showering room and left to do you business. Once you were finished  you were led back to your cell where a new orange jumpsuit was waiting. You changed and dug into the food waiting on the side table. You ate it slowly, wanting to savor every bite, but it wasn't as good as Alastor's. Not by a long shot. Finally, the time came to be led to the execution room. Officer Lance walked with you once again. You were almost sadden  by the fact that you would never see him again. He was the only officer who wasn't afraid of you, you two even shared a few card games every so often. 

Once you entered the execution room, you all the eyes on you. All sad, excited, relived eyes staring into your blackened soul. Some words were thrown your way, Satan, Devil Child, Monster and Witch, just to name a few. You just kept your head high and smiled wider. You were led up the stairs of the gallows and stood on the X marked on the floor where it would drop out from under you. The priest stood there and spoke some words you didn't bother to listen to. As the executioner put the noose around your neck, the priest asked, "Any final words?". You smiled and said, "Your family was delicious." And cries of pain came from the crowd, mainly the mothers and sisters of the deceased. With your final words said, a sack was put on your head and then the executioner backed up. After a few minutes, you heard the squeak of a handle and you fell. And you fell and fell and fell. A fall that seemed never ending, then, nothing. When you opened your eyes, you were staring at a sky. At least, you think it was the sky, it was black and a red, glowing pentagram was shining down at you. You sat up and looked at the big sign to your left, Welcome To Hell. Your smile grew wider, finally! You stood and looked around, 'Okay baby, where are you?' You thought. You made your way into the city like area. Now, for the hunt to find your true love.
