Thank you all for (in my opinion) the unbelievable number of follows, favorites, and especially reviews I have gotten over the past week and before then as well. Also the reaction to the last chapter wasn't as one sided as I would have thought, (you weren't all baying for my blood) and in response to the constructive criticism I have gotten I will say that this chapter is also pretty graphic although I assure you that's not all this story is now. Anyways read if you still wish after that warning. Have fun!
Weiss
Weiss couldn't move all she could do was watch helplessly. She was unaware of everything around her except for Ruby, her beloved redhead had woken up now and meeting her gaze was trying to look tough for her. Some tears threatened to spill over, they both knew what was coming any second now, and she couldn't bring herself to look away no matter how much she wanted to. She needed to be there for Ruby as much as she could, so she didn't let herself look away, meeting Ruby's gaze the entire time.
This bastard will pay for this, it doesn't matter how but I will make him pay. Weiss thought angrily.
A wet tearing thump sounded, it was accompanied by a whimper of pain. The black clad figure had hammered the spike partially into Ruby's forearm. To Weiss, Ruby appeared not to have noticed the pain but as Ruby looked down at her arm, just to have another blow drive it completely in, Ruby's body quivered and shook with pain. Weiss' tears fell freely now, closing her eyes, she scrunched up her face and sobbed quietly at her own inability to help Ruby. Her hair was yanked painfully from behind, forcing her face level, so as to not be able to look away.
"Didn't I JUST tell you to watch every second of this?" Daniel said to Weiss somewhat disbelievingly.
As he looked back to Ruby, he swore softly enough that even Weiss if she had wanted to couldn't have heard him.
"She's going unconscious already? That's no fun, give her the shot."
Daniel grinned, putting his head on her shoulder, he said happily,
"Once we give it the shot, it won't be able to get away from the pain, it will be forced to endure every agonizing second of it."
Weiss could feel herself trembling with despair and rage,
Damn it! I'm going to stop this, stop this and kill this sick, psychotic bastard! Weiss thought.
She focused back onto Ruby right as the next spike was hammered in with another wet thump accompanied by a loud sickening crack… and a scream that shattered her soul.
I'm going to kill him. Weiss thought, with all of her being infused into the sentence.
Another spike went in, its hammering mixing with the sound of muffled screams and the quieter sounds of blood and tears dripping onto the floor.
I'm going to kill him! Weiss thought, her mind utterly consumed by the idea.
Daniel laughed into her ear as again a spike went in, shattering bones, ripping flesh and spilling blood.
I'M GOING TO KILL HIM!
She couldn't take it, she raged and thrashed against her bonds, intent on doing anything to get out of them. The side of her head connected with Daniels, knocking his head away from her. He groaned in pain, standing up to get away from her.
"I was hoping I wouldn't have to do this but, oh well," Daniel said, clenching his teeth at his new headache. "Let's get you some of those drugs that your plaything is enjoying shall we?"
Walking over to the back of the room he retrieved some needles and after some fumbling managed to inject Weiss with them.
"You see, one of those will keep you awake like what we did to your toy over there." He said, gesturing toward Ruby as the final spike was hammered in. "The other will sedate you, to stop you from doing anything so unladylike again."
Weiss could feel it, her strength was draining, she wanted to resist but she couldn't. It was unusual, she was so tired but she just couldn't fall asleep. Then a tortured scream of terrible pain came from across the barrier between the two rooms. Snapping Weiss out of her tired mind set, she was too tired to move but at least now her mind was alert.
"Now that you are behaving… Let's make her symmetrical for you, okay Weiss?" Daniel yelled to overpower the sound of screams.
He, no, he can't! He can't! Weiss' thoughts completely panicked, He couldn't do that to someone, let alone Ruby! Could he?! Or is he really that insane?...
As the saw started up, a new wave of tears broke free and spilled over. The saw made a horrible noise, that of the ripping of flesh, the grinding of bones and the splatter of blood. Then when the first saw died down and two more started up, Weiss glanced at Daniel, who just grinned maliciously back at her.
Once the saws had all finally stopped their horrific duet, Daniel got up from where he was sitting and clapped his hand together, obviously pleased with himself.
"Let's stop for a second, we need to make sure it doesn't die on us. That would just be too easy." Daniel said, still grinning at Weiss. "Now how have you liked the show so far?"
Weiss twitched, glaring at him with what could only be called a look of absolutely unspeakable rage.
"I see that you did! That's good, well don't worry there will be more later. We just need to make sure it recuperates enough to keep withstanding the treatment." Daniel continued.
With that he walked out of the room leaving Weiss to stew in her hate and turmoil.
Weiss sat and waited, trying to think of someway to get out of this and save Ruby, and of course kill Daniel. After a little while Weiss concluded that her only option was to wait and break her own hand to release it from its bond. The only problem was that she was still too weak from the drugs to be able to try.
After a couple hours, if Weiss had to guess, Daniel came back with his cronies. Sitting behind her as the black clad figures went to the task of preparing for their work.
"So Weiss, ready for more?" Daniel said, pausing afterwards as if he was waiting for a response. "Really? You can't wait? Well perfect!" raising his voice he continued, "Let's start! I don't know if I can take any more suspense!"
Weiss did her best to ignore everything, the screams of Ruby, the cutting sounds coming from her, and most of all the voice of Daniel. She had gained back some strength while they had been gone and was now trying to pull her hand through her bindings.
"Are you even listening to me? I said this is the last time it will ever see you, so shouldn't you at least grace it with one last look?" Daniel said.
Confused, Weiss focused back onto Ruby and saw what was going to happen, and her mind blanked.
Stop. Stop. Stop. Stop! Stop! STOP!
When the scalpels descended, she ripped her hand back, as hard and as fast as she could. The bones in her hand dislocated and broke, allowing it to compress to the point where it could fit through the binding. Pulling her broken and battered hand out of the binding she thrust it forward and pushed all of her strength into an immobilization glyph. The glyph filled the building they were in and even went beyond, becoming so large and powerful that it encompassed the entire building, and just as she had wanted, everything stopped. Now all she hoped was that she could keep the glyph up until someone came to help.
Yang
They arrived at the building with the glyph, it had only taken them a couple minutes but Yang was concerned, they had identified that the glyph did indeed have Weiss' symbol on it,
Weiss and Ruby were supposed to be together that night and why the hell would Weiss bring Ruby out here? Yang thought, frustrated at the confusing situation.
"Yang" Blake said, glancing at the blonde.
"Yeah, this is Weiss' aura alright and there is no question that we need to get in there right?" Yang questioned.
"Absolutely, lets go." Blake responded.
With that the pair kicked down the door and rushed inside, but the second they did they also froze giving them ample time to survey the scene. Weiss was continuously casting her glyph, partially bound and still gagged, and across the room to their horror was Ruby, or what was left of her. Weiss flicked her eyes towards the pair and with a sigh stopped casting, and collapsed.
Room immediately lit up with the light of flames so bright it rivaled the sun.
"Blake, take care of Ruby." Still shocked, Blake nodded and sprinted toward the girl, ready to take on the black clad freaks around her. Instead they moved out of the way and warily watched as Blake whispered comforting words to Ruby as she started to remove her bonds.
Meanwhile, Yang walked over to Weiss and ripped the metal bindings off of her.
"I know this one wasn't your fault, but just in case you had anything to do with this, I'm willing to forgive you, if you help me kill everyone here." Yang said to Weiss.
Weiss looked up and met Yang's gaze, noticing how not only were Yang's pupils a dark blood red, but the whites of her eyes were slowly changing to match.
"Glad to" with that they stood and faced the room. Weiss spoke above Ruby's pained whimpering,
"Do you mind if I kill the one who ordered this?" she asked.
"Not in the slightest, as long as I get every single one of the ones who did this to her." Yang replied, taking off Ember Celica as she spoke.
Running toward the Black clad figures who were now panicked and running for any exit they could find, Yang launched herself among them kicking and punching, slowly picking them off, forcing them all into unconsciousness with a quick jab in the temple or kick to the skull. Once they were all unconscious, she sat down, straddling the closest one to her. Once she slapped him awake she went to work, punching him over and over again until his head slumped inwards and eventually broke open. Yang repeated this process with each and every single one the black clad figures present, except for Blake of course.
With that over, Yang hurried over to Ruby's side and embraced her, and started to whisper,
"Don't worry Rubes, everything is going to be fine, it's all going to be okay…"
Weiss
Stalking over to Daniel, where he was currently fumbling for his keycard to the exit, she spoke in a deadpan voice full of menace,
"What? Not having any fun Daniel? Don't want to play anymore? Well, TOO BAD!"
Weiss grabbed the back of his neck with her good hand and slammed him to the floor.
"You know what? I think I should have some of my own fun shouldn't I?" Weiss growled into his ear, mimicking what he had done to her.
"P-p-please! You d-don't have to!" Daniel cried.
"Really? I think you misunderstand, I absolutely have to." Weiss said,
Weiss lifted his head up off the ground and slammed it back, producing a loud crack as his nose broke.
"AaaaaAugh!" Daniel screamed.
Weiss flipped him onto his back and shouted,
"SHUT UP!"
She clamped her hand over his mouth, digging her nails into his face. Once he stopped trying to scream, she collapsed onto her knees and let go of his face.
"You have no idea how good this will feel for me…" Weiss muttered just loud enough for him to hear.
She looked at his thoroughly panicked expression and smiled. Slowly placing her hand over his neck, she felt him stiffen up, and then she gripped around his Adams apple and dug. She quickly broke skin and dug into his neck with her fingers and once her fingers met on the other side of his Adams apple, she tightened her grip and ripped his throat out of his neck.
Standing up she threw the hunk of meat to the side and spun away from the cooling body of Daniel Lacrimento, and walked back toward where Blake, Yang, and most importantly, Ruby were huddled.
This is probably the only time it will ever get this gory, (except in Grimm kills) but I don't fully know the stories path and ending so that might change. Anyways, thanks for sticking through with me, and if you don't want to read anymore due to the graphic content I have put out, I don't blame or judge you. All I can say is that I hope you liked it, and if you plan on reading more I will see you next week!
