Word Count: 265

Dedication To the fact that I'm so bored, I'd rather be at school right now.

AN:/: I've fallen in love with Gamma, but alas, he will never be mine. LULZ.

"Give me one reason not to blow your fucking brains out." Icy metal scorches my skull as I curse my own stupidity.

The shadow stretching to the wall in front of me engulfs everything and shields all from the glaring gaze of the spotlights. The gun against me twitches upwards in what can only mean he wants me to stand. I curse my own stupidity. Then again, I've never been too bright.

I drop my sword before uncurling from my crouch. I try to remember when the door opened and he entered. I can not.

The demon-like presence behind me flares as I try to turn. It stops me. I want to see the monster holding me trapped after trying to steal the weakest of the Ring of The Dead. It is his own fault for making it known that he has what I need.

I turn despite the murderous intent. The lights blind me momentarily, but fading reveals the truth of my captor. He's my age. Small shoulders tried to expand to hold the burden of the world that has been forced upon him. My own glare softens as understanding.

The gun slams into my skull, thankfully I am stronger than most.

"Give me one fucking reason not to blow your brains against the wall."

I shrug my shoulders and my gaze re-hardens. Eh, ain't much I could do. There is no use chancing a bullet scrambling my brains. I wouldn't do myself any good dead.

"Ain't one."

The blond removes the gun and smiles. "I think I like you."
