Chapter 4: The Torture
AN: Mkay. I don't know what Danny Smith's real eye colour, because to me, sometimes they look blue, others green and once they looked brown so I am going to say blue and if you don't like it I'll. well. I don't know what I'll do, but it will be nasty and it will come when you least expect it! MWHAHAHA!!!!!!! (COUGH* CHOKE) There might also be a few swear words in this chapter just for the sake of dramatic effect.
Okay on with the story.
Lori tried to run but something held her in place. She couldn't move and her body felt very far away. All she could see was Merton's blue eyes boring into her own. All she could hear was "Be in my eyes, be in me."
When the fogginess in her mind cleared she was tied up on Merton's rack. He stood in front of her holding a decorated dagger.
He brought his hands up to her shirt and ripped it off. The vampire then proceeded to make small shallow cuts to the terrified girl's stomach.
Tears welled up in Lori's eyes and she cried out as he made a particularly brutal cut.
"Shh, Shh, oh it'll all be over soon," Merton talked to her while he was performing his task, "Don't worry, Dru will be here within minutes. Then the party will really start."
Just then he turned around and tied Tommy to his chair so he was facing Lori and could watch what Merton was doing once he regained consciousness.
When he had finished the task he went upstairs into the main part of the house and came back down with a spray can of cooking spray and a firelighter and an enthralled Becky.
He tied her to a chair and then released her from his thrall. As she became aware of her surroundings she looked around and saw Merton, still in game face. She saw him and screamed.
"Shut up you stupid little Bitch!" Merton yelled, his advanced vampiric hearing was very sensitive. When she didn't shut up he hit her across the face.
Then there was a knock at the door and Merton went and opened it. Drusilla stood there, Miss.Edith clutched in her hands. "Merton my sweet, I need an invitation," Dru spoke in a singsong voice.
"Becky, invite Dru in or I'll do you just like Lori," Merton's tone of voice was stone cold and meant business.
"D-Dru, come i-in."
"Very good, Becky, you're learning quickly." Merton stood aside so that the beautiful vampiress could enter. She walked in and saw Lori. "Oh Merton, it's beautiful. She bleeds such pretty colours," she turned to Becky, "And this one reeks of fear," She then looked at Tommy who was starting to stir, she let out a scream and fell to the ground.
Merton rushed over to her and picked her up, "Dru, what is it? What do you see?"
" He has come to destroy our happy home, it will burn such pretty colours, with little fairies flying all around. Miss.Edith doesn't like him, he is going to steal my precious prize." She groaned again and Merton laid her down on his old bed.
He then returned to Lori. He tested his homemade flamethrower a few times and then proceeded to use it on Lori. She soon passed into unconsciousness and he soon became bored. It was time for some fun with Becky.
He was just about to take Lori down when he felt a terrible burning sensation on the back of his shirt. He turned and saw Tommy had wolfed out and was holding a bottle of Holy Water and a Cross.
"Get out, if I ever see you in this town again Merton, I will kill you!" Tommy shouted and was so enraged at what he saw that his face was flushed and his breathing erratic.
"Don't think this isn't over Tommy. I'll strike when you least expect it and you will all pay, every one of you." With that he slipped out of game face, picked up Drusilla and his bags and walked out of the door.
Tommy ran as fast as he could while carrying Lori. He had to get her to a hospital and quick. He burst into the emergency entrance and handed Lori to a nurse. A doctor then came down and asked him a few questions about Lori's medical history and then began the long wait to see if she would be okay. Tommy put his head in his hands. He couldn't believe that this had happened to Merton. He thought about everything that him and Merton had shared, all that was gone now. Tommy wondered if he could kill his best friend-turned- vampire if the need to ever arose. At the moment Tommy knew it was a resounding no.
Merton got his hearse ready for a drive in the sun and Dru was inside her apartment supposedly packing up her dolls. When in reality she was probably having a tea party and naming stars or something. Drusilla was a mystery. Merton had the hearse ready and went inside to pack Dru's things.
Once this task was finished and the hearse was loaded, Merton decided to ask Dru a question.
"Dru, where do you want to go?"
Dru spun around a few times then she looked at him and clapped her hands. "To Sunnydale, My sweet."
