Hades grabbed Rae's arm. "Rae..." She whispered. Rae looked over at what Hades was staring at. Rae Gasped. Hades started to storm towards the alley. Rae grabbed her by the arm. "Hades! No!"
Hades spun around and looked at Rae. "Rae...I would nevah forgive myself if somethin' happened to Mush an' I dint at least try to do somethin..."
Rae sighed and let go of Hades' arms and followed her to the alley.
Needles looked up and saw Hades. "We found your weakness Hades." He grinned wickedly as Blade was brutally beating Mush.
"Needles, you jackass...let 'im go..." Hades said with a shaky voice.
Needles' cruel laugh echoed off the walls. "So I was right...he is your only weakness."
"LET 'IM GO NEEDLES..." Hades demanded.
"I'll let 'im go...in just a minute..." Needles then pulled out a knife.
Hades gasped. She tried to move, but she couldn't. Her own heartbeat echoed in her ears.
Needles drew back his knife and threw it into Mush's arm. Mush yelped in pain. Hades' blood began to boil as anger spread through her body. "You fuking bastard..." She growled under her breath and through clenched teeth. Hades reached into her pocket and pulled her knife. She ran towards Needles and attacked him. She stabbed him three times in a row on the same shoulder. Needles gasped for air and stumbled back. At the same time, Rae had also pulled out her knife and had attacked Blade, stabbing him three times. Blade and Needles both growled and stumbled out of the alley. Hades dropped her knife and fell to her knees beside Mush. She grabbed his hand. "Mush-Baby..."
Rae kneeled next to Hades.
"Mush...Mush, baby...please, say somethin..." Hades pleaded as she looked down at her boyfriend.
Mush looked up at Hades with pain in his eyes. "I...I'm...O..OK..." He struggled saying even those simple words.
Hades was overwhelmed with an array of different emotions; love for her Mush, anger, and grief. A tear slid down her cheek. Rae put her arms around Hades, feeling the need to comfort her. Hades buried her face in Rae's shoulder and began sobbing. Rae had just become the first person to see Hades cry.
