Staring hard into those evil DEMONIC eyes, I take a firm grip of the knife and slash quickly across that disgusting cheek adding it to the many slashes across the face and naked body. " I trusted you, you pathetic excuse for a human. WE ALL trusted you .... around our homes, our lives, our community, OUR CHILDREN .... You are a vile, sick and perverted evil fuck who deserves more than what I will do to you!!!" I say in a quiet but menacing tone once the screams have died out. " Death is too good for you but life is not what you deserve.... You fucken piece of shit! I hope the evil that's wrapped around your heart and mind takes you to straight to hell... For a brief moment I see a tinge of sorrow in those eyes and definitely fear, but that doesn't matter to me as I push up the knife straight into the left eyeball... "Aaaarrrgghhh!!!!!! " came the agonising screams "Shut the fuck up, you freak!" And I push the sharp long knife up and twist it. I popped the eye right out; the screams filling my head and nauseating me to the point of near unconsciousness. After hours of torture I look directly into the remaining right eye and simply say... "For all the children you killed and especially mine....." and firmly slice that throat from one ear to the other... I fall to the floor unconscious from the sheer effort of it all.
