The Final Destination: Links of Blood
Now... let's get this story on the road! And BTW, I forgot to mention last time to review. So now it's taken care of. And if you have any questions... first, why was Bludworth seen facing down Alex? I'm sorry to tell you this, Tony Todd-fanatics, but I'm killing Bludworth off in this story. Second, if you're wondering who the kids I described seen watching a shooting star are, they're two OCs I'm creating for this fic. But enough blabber! Let's get started! Also, I'm starting to consider changing the rating of this story from T to M, for language, blood, and character deaths (what kind of FD story would it be without Death? :P).
Copyright: I do not own Final Destination. That franchise belongs to James Wong and New Line Cinema. The story is also loosely based on the novel "Looks Could Kill".
Chapter 2: Death's List
"I can't take this anymore." Alex moaned under his breath. It has been a week since the events regarding Flight 180, and believing that the fact he saw the preminition of it was a curse, he felt ashamed to show his presence anymore. He started to grow out of touch with his friends, and even started to become suicidal. "This vision... it's a curse that's gonna haunt me forever. Why should I keep on living?" With a sorrowful sigh, he locked his door, and prepared to end it all for him. Before he could do anything, though, he was stopped by a unseen voice.
"Ah, I remember you, young one. You stopped your friends from being killed in the plane crash, thus breaking my design." "W-Who's there?" Alex said in shock. "SHOW YOURSELF!" "Do I need to?" the voice continued, persuasively. "You know very well who I am. I am the one you tried to escape from the plane. I suppose you want everything to return back to the way it was, am I correct?"
"Hell, yes!" Alex responded. "I'll do anything to have my life back the way it was meant to be." "Well, I can take away your pain, and you will be free from my Design for you. I only ask for one thing in return." "What is it?" Alex asked. "I want you to kill the survivors that got off the plane." "How will I do that, then?" "I shall grant you a portion of my power. I am Death." "And I'm Alex Browning." Alex then feels a surge of power within him, and then he discovers he can be able to manipulate matter to his own will.
"Who will our first victim be, Master?" Alex said as he knelt to the ground, in a submissive position. "Your first victim will be that boy Todd. I shall send you outside his house." With a sudden flash that temporarily disabled electronic light, Alex vanished with a flash. He then reappeared up in a willow tree outside Todd's house. He then hears a voice in his head instruct him "Now, when he comes in, you must have him slip into that shower wire. He will end up choking to death, and then he'll be ours. I'll accompany you in this matter." "Understood."Alex responded, in an emotionless reply.
When Todd arrives in the bathroom after an arguement with his father, Alex causes a water puddle to overflow into Todd's direction, in front of the bathtub. As he is doing this, thoughts rush to his mind. These thoughts were of Alex's thoughts on Death before the accident occured. And how dear life truly is. "Anything of mine that had been dear-" Alex says as Todd slips on the water and into the tub, "-has been taken away from me after the accident! And I'll use the power of Death to get it back! The survivors have made things worse for me! They must die."
As the shower wires wrap around Todd's neck, Alex can hear him gasping for help, with tears in the poor boy's eyes. "So," Alex asked. "This is how a survivor dies." "Yes, Alex. Isn't it a wonderful sight?" "My friends wouldn't have thought so," Alex pondered. "but they are now my enemies. They're just- doomed to return to Death." "I tire of this sight. How do I unleash the death blow?" "Release your grip, young one." And for a moment, Alex hesitated in this matter, remembering this was his best friend he was killing. Regaining his composure, he then uttered "Forgive me, old friend." before letting his grip slack. Blood oozes from Todd's forehead, and with a final shudder, he moves no more. "It is finished, Death. One of the survivors is dead." "Excellent. I'll send you back for your next mission." As he teleports out of sight, he sees Todd's parents discover the boy's corpse, and shriek. "One of the survivors," Alex whispers with an evil grin on his face, "who shall feel Death's wrath."
Once again, remember to read and review! Bye for now...
