Two dark red boots stepped on the dark ground in the night without making much of a sound. The sound that could be heard was the thunder in the distance and the leaves rustling in the wind. A sharp metal point of a sword came down the earth making two slashes... a 'X'.

"Perfect." The voice that belonged to the two feet evilly sneered.

"This all ends tonight. It'll finally be over. And me and VDad will finally be free!" She then disappeared into the dark demeanor of the forest in search of the victims she would lead here. Little did they know, their breaths were numbered.

Chris still had no idea how it came to this! Several years ago, sure...he accidently poked Zach's eye out but it was in self defense! Now ever since then the inventor's daughter has been chasing him and his brother like mice! If only the brothers knew...it was bigger than that. Chris darted quickly to the right, nearly tripping on a branch as he ran farther into the forest. The high pitched laugh echoed through the forest, making it seem a lot scarier then it normally was...at night...with no moon...and he was totally alone...why did his curiosity always have to get the better of him!

"Green Guuuuy?" The laugh giggled through the trees.

"I see youuuuuu."

"Gah! Get away from me!" Chris shouted out into the forest as he ran. He winced, somehow he felt...doomed...

Oh no!

"No! nononono not a dead end!" He stared up at the tall cliff side.

"Oh yes a dead end...not just in the forest, but also for you."

Chris turned around as his eyes widened. There in the shadows was a silhouette of a girl who was no more than a mere teen. Only her metal swords in the sheath on her back and her pearly white teeth glimmered in the spots of moonlight now that the clouds were dissipating.

"N-No! Not you..." Chris put his hands up in surrender, backing up slowly as the girl took a step forward.

"Well, that wasn't exactly the kind of welcome I thought I'd get from welcoming committee. " The girl evilly snickered as she drew one of her swords from the sheath.

"N-Now Kate...put that down..." Chris was obviously shaking in fear. He knew there was no way out.

"Aw, what's the matter friend? Don't wanna play with me!" She asked, her expression turning sad.

"Um...friend..." Chris's back was at the wall of the cliff now...he couldn't move or go anywhere!

"Yeah, after all, you're the only one I trust." She was getting strangely closer, but she wasn't raising her swords.

"T-Trust?" Chris could feel the sweat on his face and his neck hair standing up.

"Of course! You know, the amazing things you'll find when you really look inside a person."

"..."

"Sure, you may find entrails, but there's sometimes more in a person than that...a soul perhaps?" She was looking up at him now, nearly six inches from his body. She raised up on her tip toes to meet him eye to eye. What was she thinking?!

"Some souls are happy all the time, while others are dead inside..."

She raised her head to his, their noses almost touching...she honestly looked like she was gonna...kiss him!

"And need to be brought back to life." She whispered, her lips nearly mere inches from his as he stared at her with scared, wide eyes, his pupils shrunk in fear...and they shrank smaller at what Kate did next.

She suddenly moved back and set off the loudest evil, insane laugh Chris had ever heard! Her pupils shrank as her entire eyes were filled with red light of evil, as if she were possessed.

But this was Chris's chance! She was a little bit away from him now!

During her laughing spree, Kate suddenly felt herself being pushed.

Before she could do anything else, Chris had shoved as far away as he could and bolted, still hearing her laughs throughout the woods, like the laughs themselves were chasing him.

The laughs seemed to echo louder in his mind.

"No! NO! Go away!" Chris felt like he was running faster, but in reality, his adrenaline and energy was fading fast.

"Come baaaaaaack."

"NO!"

Chris zig zagged, trying to get Kate off his trail, when suddenly, in the darkness, his leg got trapped in...something...something painful.

He looked back to see that his leg was caught in some bear trap! It was obvious Kate had put it there, there were no hunters or people for that matter anywhere for 50 miles.

Tears sprung to his eyes as he tried to get his leg free, but the shaking of the adrenaline and the blood beginning to cloak his boot was making it difficult.

"Awwww, the poor mouse, finally in his trap." Kate's voice rang through the forest again.

Chris couldn't help it now...those tears were going to fall no matter what now.

" J-Just leave me alone! Leave us alone..."

"Aw, now c'mon, would that very much fun for me? Or your brother? " Her voice asked.

"Martin..."

In one last attempt to free his foot, Chris lost his balance and ended up falling to the ground (and breaking his leg in the process).

That pain didn't even register right away, he just noticed the deep 'X' in the ground right where he was laying...it was planned all along!

Suddenly, the girl leaped out of the darkness, sword raised, a look of war, hatred and...tears...on her face. He could do nothing as the blades slashed at him, cutting him...it was over as quickly as it began...but it wasn't enough...Kate's thirst for the brothers blood was nowhere NEAR satisfied.

O0o0oo0o0o00o0o0o0o0oo0o0oo0o0o0o0o0o0oo0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0

"Chris? Chriiiiiis?" Martin called outside the HQ. He just didn't understand it. Sure, sometimes when Chris had nightmares he'd get up and walk around, but this was ridiculous. He had been calling a half an hour. He should've come back by now.

He should've come back by now….

Something must have been wrong, this was long for even a prank!

"Chris?! ANSWER ME!" Martin called at the top of his lungs. All he got was an echo of his own voice.

"Chris C'mon! This is NOT funny! ANSWER ME!" Martin bit his lip in fear as he realized how fast his heart was beating.

"Calm down, Martin. He's probably fine, just keep your cool. No need to get upset…yet." He thought to himself, closing his eyes trying to get his breathing under control.

The rustling in a bush caught his attention behind him.

"Chris!? That you?" He turned, a smile waiting to find itself on his face, but alas…the smile never came, for a girly giggle came from that bush, if it was anyone, it was NOT Chris.

A girl dressed in dark attire and near to black hair, green eyes, and a purple headband arose from the branches. Martin noticed some splat on her cheek that was dark…and it sent his heart beating fast again.

An evil sneer found its way onto the girl's face.

"Long time no see, friend." She giggled.

"What have you done with him!?" Martin asked, his voice turning into a snarl with the clenching of his teeth.

"Done with whom, exactly?"

"MY BROTHER YOU SICKO!" Martin shouted.

"Oh…him. Why don't you follow me to find out?" She sneered as she suddenly ran off like a cheetah into the wood.

Martin's better judgment was screaming at him not to follow, but his stronger 'older brother' instinct was screaming stronger and louder, so off he ran, trying to find Kate. He hadn't had as many encounters with her as Chris had, but he did know enough from his brother to know who she was.

~~~ FLASHBACK~~~

"Chris! Are you alright!? Oh no! Bro!" Martin ran towards his brother as he limped up to the HQ. He almost couldn't make it. Martin ran and grabbed his brother's shoulders, only to have the younger sibling nearly fall to the ground in weakness. Martin quickly wrapped his arm around the younger one's shoulder, hoisting him up and helping him into the HQ, resting him down onto the garage floor.

"AVIVA! KOKI! Little help!" Martin shouted upstairs.

Martin's heart lodged in his throat at seeing his brother like this….who, or what, had done this!?

His brother had a black eye, a slashed wound on his side, not to mention a slashed cheek…almost like it was sleek metal…not animal teeth.

"Chris!? You've gotta tell me…who did this!?" He asked, holding his brother's head in his lap as the younger was on the verge of unconsciousness.

Chris opened his right eye, the one that was unharmed, barely to look up at Martin.

"St-stay away from h-her…" He barely spoke.

"Who!?" Martin asked.

"…Kate." Chris whispered before he passed out completely.

~~~END OF FLASHBACK~~~

Martin was so caught up in his thoughts, that he almost didn't see the feminine figure zip past him.

Bingo.

He found her.

Now she's gonna get what she deserves!

He chased after her, his feet kicking up mud from that day's rainfall. He noticed that the girl stopped up ahead. Was she waiting for him? No matter! She knew where his brother was, and he was getting him back. He didn't belong in her evil clutches! She zoomed off again, into the hanging tree and bushes of the night, each and every one looking down at Martin almost as if they were laughing with the girl, like they were going to enjoy something coming up. That's when Martin saw it…between two trees. It seemed as though the branches were pointing to the ground. A flash of lightning from the last remaining cloud revealed the green shirt with blotches of red coating it, stripped of any motion…not even the rising of a chest.

"N-no…" Martin ran up to the sight and he had to cover his mouth in horror.

He brother lay there on the muddy ground, his leg caught in a trap of some sort, his limbs completely limp. His lifeless face still cringed in a painful, frightened manner.

"C-Chris…"

No reply.

He'd never receive one.

Martin didn't even notice how bad he was shaking as his knees lost all feeling and he fell to the ground next to his dead partner…more than that…his brother…more than that… his best friend.

The sudden change of color on his knees and short from being just brown from the mud sent him over the edge as he screamed 'bloody' murder of Chris's name.

Kate watched from behind a tree behind the two brothers...well, one brother…the other one wasn't exactly alive anymore. She crept up to the older brother, grabbing a giant stone.

Martin was completely unaware; everything was a giant blur, including his thoughts. He heart felt like it was gonna pump right out of his chest as he clenched his head in fear and sheer disbelief, his forehead beginning to sweat, mixing with the tears fall from his face involuntarily once the drops met his eyes. All he could do was stare wide eyed as his brother's body, not being able to take it all in like this! A sudden giggle from behind made him whip around quickly as the adrenaline to flee kicked in, but not fast enough to see Kate V smack him up against the head with a stone. Everything went black.

Well…that was a view of my evil brain…it can be rather evil. O_o Anyways…Hope you all enjoyed. I might make this a two parter , so still be on the lookout.
