I would just like to thank you guys again for the amount of support I am receiving for this story, I'm really enjoying writing this and i'm liking how it's turning out, hope you guys do too. I try to update as much as possible since I have work and college things to do but I love to write. Right before i'm about to fall asleep an idea just pops into my head and instead of sleeping I write the next chapter for you guys, pssh who needs sleep anyways? Not me. Don't be mad at me if I start to give Ruvik a little bit of emotions (its not going to be an absurd amount but still) I just saw something in him still while I was playing the game. I don't know if it was just me or if i'm going crazy who knows. As for Sebastian I really liked his character other than the fact that ALL his character development was through those little notes you read to read to activate the mirrors breaking and going into the safe room. I was going to make a little love triangle might still do it not sure though. We will see where things lead. BUT ANYWAY I HOPE YOU ENJOY THIS CHAPTER!
When I awoke, it was really really warm but the ground was pretty cold.
"Mph" I moaned out of my sleep looking around me.
There were steam pipes filling the room up with the hot air, eyes widening I quickly pushed myself up to a standing position. I spun around trying to find my way out of the room. There was a door to the right, running to it I quickly ran through slamming the door shut behind me. I sighed and peeked around the room wondering to where I was. I could have sworn I was in Ruvik's office when I fell asleep, unless this was another test.
"You could have warned me you ass!" yelling at air, I probably looked insane.
Creeping around the room looking for a way out a piercing static sound filled my head, quickly putting my hands against my ears I looked around. Something came into my vision. My eyes widened in horror to what I saw.
It was a man with a lock box for a head, a meat cleaver in one hand and a long white object that had spikes in the end in the other hand. He had blood stains all over the butcher clothes he wore. I was shaking with fear, he quickly ran up to me swinging the cleaver at my head I ducked and ran past him. I ran into another add on to the room and was met with a dead end. Looking around at the floor I saw more of those lock box type things that the man wore for a head. I looked up seeing him charging towards me again. He was about a foot away from me when I put my hand up to him.
"STOP!" Yelling towards him he tilted his head to one side then slammed on my shield with the cleaver. Clenching my jaw I put my hand out in the air looking like I was choking him without touching him. His hands raised to his neck, in a matter of seconds he started to claw at his neck. I clenched my hand shut and the lock box exploded blood spilling to the floor, his body melting into the ground. I sighed in relief, it was over.
Suddenly that piercing sound filled my head again and I looked over to see a lock box rising in the air with a body under it. Eyes widening I dashed to the other room.
He could regenerate with these things?! There were at least twenty of them on the damn ground! As I was passing a few of them I would destroy them so the asshole had less of a chance. I ran around destroying every single one I could find.
Running to a corner to hide I heard a pair of light footsteps behind me, before I could turn around a hand covered my mouth and put their arm around my chest securing me to them. Struggling to get free I was about to use my powers when
"Anastasia it's me Sebastian be quiet damnit." Sebastian whispered in my ear. He turned around with me still trapped against him and I felt him bump against a wall. Taking his hand away from my mouth I spoke
"I can definitely take this guy, if someone would let me." Whispering furiously to him.
"I want you to tell me what the fuck is going on with you and that psycho!" he whispered back.
"How the hell can you move things like that and kill people with just the lift of your finger?!"
"I don't know Seb. I was the one who killed that rapist that raped and killed all those woman, he was going to do the same thing to me when the power thing just happened, now will you please let go of me?" quietly explaining myself I ripped myself from his arms.
"What the fuck." he whispered to himself
"Uh watch your fucking mouth." I cracked at him smiling.
He smiled at me, quickly pulling me into a hug I hugged him back quickly then pulled away
"Okay there will be time for that later, right now we have to worry about HIM!" pointing at the lock box butcher thing that was growing angry when he couldn't find us.
"Leave it to me Seb." Whispering to him I walked out into the light when the thing saw me I gripped him up into a choke hold letting him suffer.
Whoever tries to kill me will suffer, gripping tighter into the air the lock box once again exploded and the body fell to the floor dissipating into the ground.
Sebastian walked up next to me
"It's gonna get some getting used to but that's an awesome fucking gift you got there little Annie." He smiled down at me.
I hit him HARD in the arm.
"Fuck! What was that for?!" he said rubbing his arm where I punched him.
"First of all THIS" raising him up in the air without touching him and letting him back on solid ground I continued "THIS is NOT a gift, I can kill people Sebastian and maybe I like it which scares me. And second of all YOU KNOW I HATE BEING CALLED THAT!" I smacked him over the head which made him wince. Something suddenly confused me
"Wait how did you know I could do all these things?" asking him with a confused expression.
"I saw what you did in the village Anastasia." He silently answered.
My eyes widened, he saw that? I wonder what he thinks of me now…
"Also, what it going on between you and freak?" he asked insensitively
I winced at his choice of words "Ruvik is not a 'freak' Sebastian. He's gone through a lot, you don't know half of what he is. Or what has happened to him." Explaining calmly to him.
"Actually I do, I've seen everything Anastasia. His sister died in a fire, he killed his parents inheriting all their money, then to top it off he took mental patients from the hospital experimenting on them for his own sick gain."
"You don't under-" I was cut off by a mans voice.
"Detective Castellanos!" a man in a lab suit ran over to us with a pale looking boy with white hair whispering to himself.
"Oh hey Jimenez I'm glad I finally found you." Sebastian greeted him…
So this was the man who destroyed Ruvik.
"And you are young lady?" he asked me.
"Known of your fucking business that's who." Responding coldly to his question.
I was assuming that the kid with him must be Leslie.
All three of their sets of eyes drifted behind me so I followed them to see Ruvik standing a few feet behind me.
"Ruvik stop this at once, how are you even alive? We killed you many many years ago, putting your brain as the center of the STEM project." Jimenez spat.
My eyes widened and my blood ran cold. I looked up at Ruvik's face and all I saw was anger.
Nothing made sense to me in this moment of time. If he was dead as Jimenez said he was then how come he's standing right in front of us. Slowly turning around to face Jimenez I stomped over to him, my blood was boiling. How could someone do that to anyone who has been through so much as Ruvik has?! The building started to shake from my doing. Sebastian's eyes widened and he jumped in front of Jimenez, with a wave of my hand he went flying across the room smacking against the wall.
"FUCK! ANASTASIA DON'T DO IT!" Sebastian screamed over to me. His words were nothing to me in this moment of time.
I was right in front of Jimenez when he was looking me up and down analyzing me. I tilted my head to one side staring at him with a blank expression. Ready to kill him. The building around us started to shake even harder.
"What are you? How can you use this kind of power?" he squealed out like a pig about to be slaughtered.
"I don't know Jimenez and you will never know, but Ruvik will." I spat at him gripping him by his neck picking him up off the floor. I dug my nails into his neck so he was bleeding. As I was about to crush his wind pipe a set of burned hands ripped mine off of Jimenez's neck and I was met with Ruviks face.
"It's not time" he whispered in my ear.
Putting his hand on my face, my body went limp and all I saw was black.
Sebastian's P.O.V
After whispering something to her Ruvik put his hand on Anastasia's face and she went limp under it being knocked unconscious. She fell limp in his arms and he held her close to him.
What was with this guy? Why was Anastasia so worked up about what happened to Ruvik? Who honestly gave a shit about what happened to him? Not me that's for sure.
As soon as she was out cold the building stopped shaking and I was able to get up.
"Your time is not coming yet Jimenez, you will suffer much more before she or I plan to end your life." Ruvik said looking down at Anastasia stroking her face.
My face flushed red with anger, what gave him the right to touch her like that? It was a perfect example of a lion and a lamb. She was to kind hearted to give into the kind of darkness he had to offer.
"What are you going to do to her you bastard?" I spewed at Ruvik.
He just looked at me and simply said
"Everything."
Then he was gone taking her with him. Falling to my knees I cursed
"GO DAMNIT ANASTASIA!" she was right I didn't understand a damn thing and it fucking infuriated me. Why did this have to happen? Anastasia was starting to heal me…make me feel again. I was going to ask her out on a date but then all this BULLSHIT had to happen. I balled my hands into fist and punched the wall a few times until my knuckles bled. Putting my back against the wall sliding down it slowly I peered up at Jimenez.
"This is all your fault isn't it, you did this to Ruvik and now Ruvik dragged your sorry ass in here along with us when we found you?" I assumed grinding my teeth.
"I-I don't certainly know the answer to your question detective. We killed him, the only thing remaining of Ruben Victoriano was his brain. I don't understand what's happening either. And as for your little friend there I wish I could have gotten to her before Ruvik…" he went off into that scientist brain of his.
"You would have done what?" asking him while I stood up. Furiously walking over to him I grabbed him by the shirt pulling him to my face.
"You wouldn't have touched her! Your filthy lab rat paws wouldn't be anywhere near her you sick fuck! Why in the hell would you even kill Ruvik?!" yelling in his face I waited for an answer.
"Because he knew too much! He was progressing so far in the STEM project we needed to take it over! It was worth a fortune!" he shook with fear as I held him by the shirt.
"Your greed is what put us here you fucking idiot!" throwing him down to the floor I quickly looked at Leslie
"We're going now."
"We're going now….going…going…going." Leslie repeated me.
Grabbing him by the shoulder I walked on trying to find where Ruvik was hiding out with Anastasia.
