Friends forever…right?
Chapter- 12, Hell is for Hero's.
The cell had been quiet for a long time and Danny was driving himself crazy wondering what Sam was thinking about. They're situation was hopeless and even he had to admit that. They were locked up in a cell, in a prison or whatever, in ghost zone and no one knew, except for maybe Tucker, but even at that, what could he possibly do? This was not like the last time that he had been imprisoned in ghost zone. Somehow, they were able to touch Sam, so that meant that any rescue attempts Tucker made would prove worthless. Even humans weren't immune to the ghost zone anymore. Were they getting stronger? Or was it just that he was getting weaker? Finally making himself anxious, Danny stood up and began to pace the cell un-aware that in the darkness of the cell, Sam was quietly watching.
"A little nervous?" she asked while standing up.
"No, just tired of sitting down. I need to stretch my legs a bit." Danny replied, lying as usual.
"You know, Danny, I'd really like it if you would stop lying to me all the time." Sam said, stepping in front of Danny to make him stop pacing.
"I-I'm-" Danny began but stopped. "I just don't want to worry you. This whole thing has gotten out of hand and I don't know how to fix it and that…that scares me…" Sam placed a hand on his cheek and pulled him closer.
"Who says that you always have to play hero, Danny? You always carry all the responsibility, let us help you sometimes."
"I can't do that, Sam. Every time I lower my guard, something bad happends and I'm tired of it." Danny replied turning away.
"That's not your fault, Danny!" Sam pleaded. "You can't help what happends all the time, you can't prevent every misfortune and it's crazy to think you can." Sam shouted, anger and desperation present in her voice. "If we're going to get out of here, we're all going to have to work together. That is our only chance." Danny knew Sam was right and nodded at her words, but deep down he knew that he would never be able to do as she pleaded. With his powers came great responsibility, something that only he understood.
'Ok, Sam, I'll lighten up a bit on myself if that is what you want." Danny replied, trying to sound defeated but becoming happy when he realized that Sam bought it. Sitting back down, Sam joined him and after a few moments she relaxed and leaned against him, laying her head down on his shoulder. Lost for words, a long silence passed but only to be broken. However it was not by speech but by sound. From outside the cell, heavy footsteps pounded down the hall and echoed into their cell. Danny, alarmed, stood up and walked over to the bars to try and get a better look, but immediately wished he hadn't. Upon looking down the hall his eyes fell upon three huge, bulky, otherworldly creatures masked in shadows and somehow, he knew that they were coming for them.
"What's going on, Danny?" Sam whispered, joining him at the bars.
"I think those things are heading for our cell." Danny responded, shrugging off a shiver.
"Oh my god…"Sam replied, finally catching a glimpse of the demonic looking beings. "What are we going to do?!" She added, panicking.
"Get away from the bars. Go sit in that corner over there. Hopefully their business will only be with me. I think that if you hide in a shadowy part of the cell, they won't touch you."
"NO!" Sam shouted, "I won't do that, I just can't-"
"JUST DO IT!" Danny shouted angrily, cutting off Sam's protests. "I am not going to argue, now go!" Danny added, his eyes changing from blue to green. Sam, hesitating for a moment, finally obeyed and let out a small sob as she walked over into a darkened area of the cell. Now alone, but relieved, Danny continued to watch the three approaching specters.
"Are you sure you got the cell number right, Jyn?" Danny heard one ask another, now that they were in earshot.
"Yep, cell 9801; I'm not a dumb ass, Axial." Another one rasped in response. Danny, now covered in a cold sweat, looked down at the lock to the door. The numbers 9801 were carved next to the key hole.
"Look, don't get smart with me, Jyn; I will not hesitate in ending the eternal life you supposedly possess." Axial replied threateningly.
"Can you both just shut the fuck up?" a deep voice echoed back. "I am tired of the fucking bickering, you two act like children. Grow up and just do your damn jobs. How are we to be feared if the prisoners are constantly witnessing your bitching?"
"Yeah whatever, Bane. I am through wasting my fucking time. Let's just go in here and have our fun. I haven't heard a good scream in a couple of weeks." Axial began. "This is going to be fun…" He added and then they grew quiet, their steps the only noise in the hall. Finally, when they neared the cell before Danny's and Sam's, Danny backed up from the bars and slumped down in the middle of the cell in an attempt to act natural.
"Wakey, wakey eggs and bakey, Ghost Child. We've come to pay you a little visit." Axial shouted, trying to sound playful. Danny, trying to hide his fear, refused to raise his gaze from the concrete floor of the cell.
"Aww, no Hello?" Axial added, unlocking the cell door and walking in, Bane and Jyn following closely behind. "Look at me when I am talking to you, you filthy piece of shit!" Axial shouted, kicking Danny in the side and knocking him over. He began to laugh as Danny gasped for air. "How rude, we come to pay you a visit and you can't even greet us properly? Tsk, Tsk, not good manners, Ghost Child." Axial added, an evil grin spreading across his skeletal looking face.
"Where's you're little girlfriend hiding?" Bane asked, bending down to hover over Danny. Refusing to answer, Danny simply spat out a wad of blood that had been building up in his mouth in Bane's direction.
"Now that wasn't very nice." Bane replied, punching Danny across the face.
"Jyn, check the corners of the cell, I know she's probably just hiding in one." Bane ordered and at that Jyn hopped up and disappeared into the shadows. A few moments later he emerged, dragging Sam out by her arm.
"Here." Jyn replied, throwing Sam down onto the floor a few feet away from Danny.
"Leave her out of this." Danny ordered, trying to get up.
"Oh? Why should we? She is just as equally our property as you are. Technically, we can do whatever we want." Bane replied scooting over to where Jyn had thrown Sam. "I've always wanted to get know humans better, both inside and out…" He added, running a claw-like hand down Sam's cheek and continuing to go further down her body. Sam whimpered and Danny became livid.
"Look, the only reason why she is here is because Skulker felt like weaseling you all out of more money. I'm the one you want not her!" Danny shouted, trying to half crawl half walk over to Sam. Suddenly, Axial grabbed his shoulder and while digging his claws into his flesh he slammed him back onto the ground with a loud thud.
"Who said you could get up, fresh meat?" Axial asked while smiling and bearing razor sharp teeth. "How do you want to do this Bane?" he added, his smile refusing to fade.
"Well he does have a point, Axial." Bane began, "He is the one we wanted originally. This human thing was just a last minute add on. I say, we have a little fun with our Halfa friend and make his girlfriend watch."
"Fine by me." Axial replied, grabbing Danny by his hair and pulling him towards the other part of the cell.
"NO!" Sam shouted sitting up and trying to run over to Danny, but she was stopped before she could even stand by a hard punch to the stomach and a punch to the face that sent her back down onto the floor in agony.
"You little bitch." Bane began. "How dare you try something like that, do it again and I will disembowel your boyfriend and decorate this cell with his entrails. Do you hear me?" Bane shouted, grabbing a handful of Sam's hair and pulling her face up to his. Defeated and helpless, Sam nodded, tears running down her cheeks like waterfalls.
"Please, don't hurt her…" Danny pleaded, trying to ignore the different pains erupting all over his body. Bane, letting go of Sam's hair stood up and walked over to where Axial had dragged Danny. Bending down on one knee to his level he let a small smile creep onto his grayish green face.
"Ghost Child, I'm sorry but I don't have a heart, which means that I lack mercy and it also means that words like, 'please' and 'I'm begging you' don't affect me. How else do you think I got this job?" Bane asked sarcastically while punching Danny in the face once more. "Jyn, I don't want any interruptions so make sure that girl does not interfere." Bane ordered. Jyn, without hesitation, wrapped one bulky, over muscular arm around Sam's neck then locked her arms behind her back with the other hand.
"You are going to learn your place, ghost child, and you are going to realize that you belong to us now, body, mind and soul." Bane stated, pulling Danny up by his neck and slamming him into one of the cell's walls. Tightening his grip and cutting off Danny's air and ability to yell, Bane began to pummel Danny with his fists. With every hit, Danny experienced more and more excruciating pain. He began to wonder how much more he would be able to take before he was finally given the blissful peace of death. Eventually, Axial joined in and Danny began to mentally beg for it. Then, suddenly, the beating stopped.
"Flip him." Bane ordered and Axial took Danny by the neck, pulled him away from the wall then shoved him face first back into it with bone crushing force. Then Bane reproached Danny and began to rip his hospital pajamas off. Sam, who was still being held down by Jyn, turned her head and began to sob uncontrollably as Axial and Bane began to violate him. Soon his cries overlapped hers.
(At the Hospital)
"What's going on here, how the hell is it possible for my son to disappear without a trace in an intensive care unit?! You all are supposed to be watching him!" Jack Fenton shouted at Dr. Sullivan, his face red with anger.
"Mr. Fenton, please calm down. I am sure Daniel hasn't gone very far." Dr. Sullivan replied, trying to sound calm.
"Calm, down? Calm down?! How am I supposed to calm down! My critically injured son is missing from the hospital and no one has a clue to where he could have gone. Or as to who could've taken him!" Jack shouted once more. Maddie placed a hand on his back in an attempt to calm him.
"Please, Mr. Fenton, there is no way that someone could have taken him from the hospital. The nurses watch this wing very closely, and considering the fact that your son had been beaten up by an unknown gang in the first place, they would definitely be keeping even closer tabs on who entered and left his room."
"Well I am sure you're not trying to tell me that my son probably just got up and walked off on his own are you? The boy can barely lift his head, let alone get out of bed and leave." Jack replied his tone now slightly subdued.
"Well, Mr. Fenton, Is it possible that his friend Sam could have taken him somewhere?" Dr. Sullivan asked, crossing his arms.
"No, we know Sam very well and she wouldn't do that. I think something happened to both of them." Maddie volunteered.
"Well, none the less, whether Daniel left with Ms. Manson or whether they both were taken from here, I think you should inform the authorities and stop pointing the finger at us. We did nothing but try our best to help your son." Dr. Sullivan replied as he turned to walk away. "Now if you'll excuse me, I have patients to attend to." And at that he left, cutting off any further argument from Jack. Seething in anger for a moment, Jack finally turned around to face Tucker, Jazz and Maddie.
"Alright, here's how were going to do this. Maddie, you and I are going to go down to the police department and file a missing persons report. Meanwhile, Jazz, you and Tucker are going to go home and wait for Danny to call. Come on, let's head to the van." And at that he began to speed off towards the stairs Maddie following closely. Jazz and Tucker, who were still somewhat numb to what was happening looked at each other then began to rush after Jack.
Dun Dun DUN!!! Another cliffhanger! Will Danny be alright? How will he handle this new situation? Will this change anything between him and Sam? Ooo, well I guess you will just have to wait until I update again to find out, wont 'cha? Please read and review and don't be mad at me for further torturing Danny. Everything always works out for the good, right? Well, maybe…Hmmm…I will have to think about that. Anyway see ya in chapter 13!
