Chapter Ten
To say that Wally West was nervous at the moment was a complete and utter understatement. He was terrified, as he was bound to a chair, with a bag over his head. "What the Hell is happening? Are Dick, Rachel, and the kid alright? Hell, am I alright?" He thought to himself, before he heard a door open, and was suddenly dragged off, God knows where.
When they people dragging him stopped, someone pulled the bag off his head, and Wally saw who it was. Daniel Sullivan, the same bastard who had shot him in the arm twice, and who dragged him back to wherever they currently were.
"You know, I read about you when I was a kid. Back in '08." Sullivan said, smirking. "If you're trying to flatter me, especially after you shot me, you're nuts." Wally retorted, which earned him a firm punch in the face from Sullivan. Wally began to spit out blood, and a few teeth, as Sullivan began to talk again.
"You see, I don't wanna hurt you, Flash Jr, but you're not gonna make things any easier by talking shit. So, here's the deal: I need to find that girl. The one who your fearless leader and his freakshow friend are helping. And I figured that, since you know Robin so well, and you know where he's going, you could help us find him! So, what do ya say, pal? You up for a little cooperation?" He asked, smiling. Wally looked up at Sullivan, and said, through gritted teeth, "Go fuck yourself, pretty boy."
Sullivan sighed. "I wish you didn't say that, FJ. Gentleman, you know what to do." Then, the two men who dragged Wally to the room they were in grabbed him yet again, only this time, they put him in a chair, and began strapping him in. "Wait, what the Hell are you doing to me?" Wally said, as they finished strapping him in. "Well, y'see, I read up on what the clown would do for fun, and, well, considering he was one of the most dangerous people to ever live, why not take a few methods from him?" Sullivan said.
Then, he went over to a switch, placed his hand on it, and said to Wally, "Did the old man ever tell you to 'beware the light'? Because, he should have." And with that, he pulled the switch, sending electricity into Wally's body. As Wally screamed in agony, Sullivan grinned maliciously.
When the first shock was done, Sullivan went over to Wally. "Hey, you still with me, buddy? You wanna help out, now? I mean, you're not stupid, Wally. You're smart enough to choose the right side, right?" He asked, with an intentionally sadistic tone in his voice. Wally looked up, and said, "Go… to… HELL!" Sullivan smirked, went back over to the switch, and said, "Well then… BACK TO IT!" And pulled it, again.
As Wally screamed out, Sullivan continued to talk. "You know, you could end all this pain, if you just agree to a little cooperation. So, you wanna give in and help, or do you wanna keep playing games? I mean, one more shock, and you're done for." When the shock was over, Wally spit some blood at Sullivan, who responded in kind by slashing at Wally's abdomen, making him cry out in pain. "Think about it, Wally. The girl ain't worth shit, trust me. Now, she's not a natural fuckup, not like you, of course, she's a mistake, and we don't want her to hurt anyone else. And, from the looks of it, you're in no position to do anything but cooperate, understand?" Sullivan questioned, to which Wally slowly nodded his head, making Sullivan grin. "Good. I'm glad we came to an understanding. Gentleman, get him patched up, then put him back in his cage." Sullivan said, as the two guards complied.
When Wally and the guards were out of sight, Sullivan thought of how many people Laura had killed in one day, and was worried as to how many more she could kill in the coming days.
Author's Note: Well, this one was long overdue! Sorry for the delay, I was pretty busy and wanted to focus on other stories, and the chapter being a little too short. Stratos263, thank you again for reviewing! Also, if you think that H.I.V.E. is brutal in the last chapter or this one, wait until you see what they do later in the story! Anyway, thank you all for reading, leave a review, and, as always, take care, and I'll see you next time!
