A bright light shone. Thoughts rushed through his mind. "where..." he looked around, confused and stressed the Hispanic teen was sure he'd seen this place before. The room was so quiet he could hear his own heart beat and breathing, blurred voices could be heard but he couldn't make out what they said. He moved his arms to try to sit up but they were clamped down tightly, even his neck was held down. "great..." he sighed weakly, he had remembered where he was. The Reach ship. The sound of the doors alerted him, he looked quickly and his face was stained with anger and fear. A tall, dark figure entered, its eyes glowed mischievously. "you have woken," a low crumbly voice spoke, sounding amused in a way. "I would have thought a meat would take longer to regenerate." The figure stood close, a smile spread deviously on its face.

Jaime stared, confused at what the being had said. "how did I...I was..." The teen thought till his head hurt then he remembered, he remembered event by event until he gathered everything. He focused and glared at the figure, clenching his fists tightly. He was too weak to say anything, all he could do was think insults. The door closed, rejecting any light that came into the room from the outside. The lights above them glowed calmly, somehow making Jaime feel somewhat warm inside. The figure stepped closer and loosened the clamp that surrounded his neck. Its hands felt hard and cold, then the name struck him. "Black Beetle..." He thought out aloud, not noticing that he had said it. "One way or another," Black Beetle continued loosening the metal straps. "I will put you back on mode." He held Jaime's wrist and pulled him violently off the surface and onto the hard floor. He whined in pain as the large beast picked him up and crushed his body into the textured wall. He fell to the ground, Black Beetle towering over him with a smile slowly creeping on his face.

"You couldn't be more vulnerable." He picked him up and threw him into the wall, each thrust was harder than the last. Loud banging noises and weak moans of pain could be heard over Black Beetle's amused, yet quiet laughs. The Hispanic teen spoke weakly, his back stinging as if someone had torn his skin off. "Killing me wouldn't." He paused while he tried to move but the pain was too much, "make me go back on mode..." his back had been bleeding, the blood stained his jeans. Even the wall and floor was also slightly stained. "Then I will have to find another host," The beetle pinned him to the wall again, staring deviously into his eyes. "however, I would not think there would be other meat as good as you." His very words made Jaime feel sickened to the thought, fear grew wildly into his eyes as the martian leant closer, and slowly licked the side of his neck. Jaime's stomach churned as he soon found himself snogging the beetle, he felt trapped, but somehow lucky. Presumably because he wasn't being killed, he could still find a way to escape and live life normally again.

But how could he forget about it? Thoughts trailed through his mind but then he stopped as he felt Black Beetle's body rest against his. Now there was definitely no way out. He was being dragged across, then he was placed on the table-like structure he woke on. "come on Jaime!" he thought to himself as the beast's armour slowly melted off. "of course!" he staggered out of his grip and armoured up, instantly forming a weapon at his enemy. Black Beetle growled and armoured up too, also forming a weapon. The atmosphere turned unexpectedly, it almost felt like their first battle. Black Beetle's smile stayed stuck to his face, Blue became confused and still felt weak inside. He stood, panting and thinking what to do; either way he would get beat like last time. "Nothing will come, nothing will go..." Black Beetle taunted him, making his heart race. Blue stepped back towards the wall, his gun still pointed at the other beetle, he slid his hand on the wall in hope to open the door. Nothing. No matter how hard he tried. "The door is locked tightly. There is no escape, little brother." The hero stared blankly, his armour rolling off. Black Beetle got rid of his gun, exchanging it with a sword. The Hispanic teen stood against the wall, eyes locked on the sword.

"Great," He thought, "how did I get into this mess?" the martian walked boldly towards him, knowing he would be too tired and weak to fight back. Jaime slid down so that he was sitting against the wall, Black Beetle still walking toward him. As he reached him, he met his eyes, stabbing him in the stomach. "Urgn..." A breath of pain rushed through Jaime's body, as he held his hands on the wound. Black Beetle grabbed him by the shoulders quickly, and lowered himself to his level, kneeling around the teens beaten waist. Now he felt like he was going to be sick. The beast cupped his hands around the back of Jaime's head, licking his neck like before. The dry blood crumbled onto his tongue as he trailed it to the teens mouth, leaning his pelvis closer. There was nothing the weak boy could do but wait, wait for it all to stop and hope he would be left alone. Their tongues met in each others mouths, Jaime closed his eyes in defeat as the humanoid tasted his mouth and gripped his sides closer to his own. His body grew limp as he started to drift off into a sleep, but he was too disturbed to even move. Time had passed since Black Beetle's sexual behaviour started, he was no where to be seen in the room. In fact, the teen wasn't on the ship when he woke again, he was in his bed, in his house, still feeling sick.

He turned on his side and faced the window, which was left wide open. He sighed a he dug his head deeper into the pillow, but the darkness brought back the memories of the Black Beetle's actions. He felt his stomach jolt again, he leant forward and closed his eyes tightly. Slowly, he lifted himself up to a sitting position, his hands held the sides of his sweating face. With every thought of the snogs and thrusts, his stomach ached badly, he restrained the urges to give in but he was too weak. he leant forward as a sharp jab of pain suddenly thrived inside him, gritting his teeth the Hispanic teen walked slowly towards the bathroom. He locked the door and knelt by the toilet, where he threw up shakily. He moaned as the pain grew while he regurgitated, the large cuts and scars on his back stinging as if someone was repeatedly clawing it with their fingers. Small tears rolled about inside his eyes, he could never attack the Reach without thinking of the events between the two beetles. He rested his head on the side of the seat, and sighed. "How did I let this happen, why was he acting like that?" He thought to himself as he gathered up his strength and stood up, he unlocked the door and walked out after he flushed. The bedroom was warm, despite the window being open. He rest his hands on the windowsill and leant forward a bit. Cold air brushed over his face and weaved through his hair. Jaime was starting to feel calm and safe. As soon as he felt completely calm, his phone rang, disturbing his peaceful relaxation. He picked it up and sat on the edge of his bed, Bart was calling him.
