King of Hearts

Chapter 9 – Make Me Smile.

Hash's POV. Boston.

"Mmmmmmmm!"

Smoke gently left my mouth as I sat in between two incorrect souls.

The one cried along my shoulder as I held my left hand down on the blade I had resting in his right thigh. As blood rolled down his pajamas, I looked over to stare into his wet yellow eyes.

"Don't cry." I begged him, as he stared at me with tears gently leaving his eyes to the touch of my statement.

"You might make me smile." I stated as I soon realized he wasn't looking at me any longer and towards the bitch that was behind me.

Calmly letting my cigarette lower down to my bottom lip, I looked over to see the bloody women resting down under my arm.

In confusion, I looked back to him to say.

"She's dead."

He stared at me with the duct tape still wrapped along his mouth, as I wiped his tears with my free hand.

"It's okay. She was a bit of a bitch anyway man. You could have done better than that." I stated as he growled at me.

Giving him a sad response of my eyes, I said.

"It's alright man, let it out." I urged as I went for his duct tape.

Gently removing the tape, I immediately moved my head back as he screamed.

"You fucker! I'm going to kill you! You...!?"

The tape went right back on as I gave him a shocked look.

"Me? A fucker? How can I be that man? I'm just out here making a living. Doing my job like any honest man." I stated as he leaped at me.

Not nearly getting close enough to make me flinch, I pushed upward on the blade in his leg and stared into his eyes with concern as he screamed in pain from under the tape.

"What's wrong?!" I asked scared he was getting hurt from something unknown to me.

His eyes remained shut in pain, as I looked to his leg to see the blade had nearly reached his groin.

"Oh! Shit, my bad brother. I didn't know." I stated as I ripped it out from in between his skin.

The hedgehog cried in agony as I let the blade rest on my lap.

Letting my cigarette take another puff away from my time, I looked back to see him with his head down in his lap crying deeply in despair.

In sadness I reached over to grab his wife and lift her onto my lap.

"Hey, man?" I said in concern as he looked up slowly to see his wife in my arms.

"Look at this fat bitch." I begged of him as he remained silent in tears.

"She got you and your kids screwed here man. You can't be blaming me for only doing my job, can you?" I asked of him as he stared into my eyes.

"She sold you out. She spent your money. She went against the contact you signed and you defended her still for some odd reason. I mean, come on! What were you thinking?!" I asked of him with a chuckle as he still looked to his dead wife.

"The only thing she was good at was probably sucking a fat dick. Am I right?" I asked as I looked to his wife's mouth.

"She looks like she could suck down and eight ball brother."

In joy of my own joke, I opened her blood drenched mouth and lowered it to the rim of my pants.

"Something like this right?" I asked the husband as I looked back to him as I made his wife's head bob up and down on my crotch.

The hedgehog grew mad, and in confusion I sent the wife's head back into the wall next to me to yell.

"You got fucked here bro! That bitch is the reason your kids are dead and the reason your about to join them! I'm just doing my job here by fixing people like you! So I can't be the fucker here brother. I'm just a man working hard, and to be honest, I'm getting thirsty. You got anything good in the fridge?" I asked him as I got up to look at the refrigerator across the room.

The man remained quiet as I opened it up to see the small corpse of his son come tumbling out and onto the floor.

"Rughhhhh!" He screamed as I looked down to laugh.

"That's where he went! Hahah! Your kid wins this game of hide and seek, that's for sure!" I stated as I kicked the body aside to reach back in the fridge to grab onto a water bottle.

Shutting the door and cracking open the lid, I took a chug and rested it down on the floor.

The man watched from the corner wall as I picked up his son and began to use his body as a puppet.

"Count to ten daddy. I'm going to hide and you'll never find me!" I stated in a childish voice as I began to make him walk back to the fridge.

With some effort I stuffed the little boy back in the main compartment and shut the door.

"One! Two! Three! Four! Five! Oh I wonder where he could be. Six! Seven! Eight! You better not be under the sink again Timmy!" I urged him as I finished and retook my bottle from up off the floor.

"Nine! Ten! Ready or not here I come!"

The man started to cry heavy as I opened up the fridge to shout.

"There you are! Silly Timmy! Always such a card you are!"

I smiled seeing as all the kids fingers were chopped off, and with a nod I shut the door and made my way back to the broken man crying among his wife's broken body and cold blood.

As I got back my seat among the fun, I said.

"You have such a nice family, you know that?" I wondered as he remained on the floor among his own tears.

Letting my cig exit my mouth, I reached down and took the hedgehog from up off the floor to ask.

"Where's your daughter?"

His eyes widened as we both began to hear some moans coming from the kitchen pantry across the room.

In shock I shouted.

"I didn't know she was playing hide and seek too dad! Can I go find her, please!?" I begged as he remained scared and speechless.

Gently getting back onto my feet, I made my way to open the pantry.

The dad watched as his daughter came out with a rope I had tied around her neck previously, and he began to panic as I got her up on her broken feet.

I smiled in joy as the tape on the father's mouth came off.

Immediately he screamed.

"Run baby!"

The daughter still cried in pain as I informed him.

"I broke her feet man, sorry."

The dad's eyes lost all hope as I smiled and pushed the end of my cigarette down on the top of her head.

"Aughhhh!" She screamed from under her tape as I put it back in my mouth.

"Thanks baby. I hate ashes." I stated as the dad widened his eyes to the rope at which I began to grab.

"What are you doing you monster!?" He asked as I looked up to see the ceiling fan off above our heads.

"That'll do." I said to myself as tossed the rope over and tied it down to the pipe under the sink.

The dad continued to watch as I came back to make sure everything was tight and ready to go.

"Stop it please! She's just a kid!" Begged the mourning father now as I quickly replied with a smile.

"My job was to kill the whole family man. Understand my contract here. Letting the daughter live would mean I didn't follow my orders. I can't have that. Don't worry it will be quick. And sure of a lot of fun to watch." I stated as I tightened her end of the noose to her small neck.

As soon as it was good, I made my way over to the end I had tied down and took hold of it within my bloody grip.

The dad began to panic and try to move to help, but as soon as he got close I yanked down and began to laugh as his daughter began to rise up off the ground above his reach.

"Hahah! Too slow!" I informed him as I pulled hard forcing her neck to snap.

"NOOOOOO!" Screamed the dad as I took the end I had and tossed it around the base of the ceiling fan.

Seeing as the rope was secured around it, I went to the entrance to the room and turned on the fan to watch as she began to spin around the room in front of her dad.

"Told you it was going to be fun man! Look at her go!" I urged him as his head forced itself back into the floor.

I was upset he was missing out now, and in anger I approached and got him up on his feet.

The man cried into my arms as I pinned him into the wall directly in front of his spinning baby girl who continued to fly across the ceiling like an angel.

Taking hold of my cigarette I pinned his head back and shouted.

"When I say to watch you watch!"

In force, I pushed the burning end into his left eye and watched as it melted clean into his skull.

Screams made my ears go down and in anger, I took my blade and slammed it through his forehead and pinned it into the back of the wall behind him, forcing his body to stand still and stare at his dead family among him.

In sadness, I shook my head and asked.

"Why didn't you just pay back the money?"

My hand rubbed the edges of his face, as I shut my eyes in confusion.

"People these days."

In loss of interest, I let him go and slowly reached down into his front pocket to pull out his wallet.

Inside I found the money my boss wanted.

Taking the cash in hand, I made my way to the exit where my hat and gun both waited along the counter.

Taking my pistol back under my suit jacket and my hat back onto the top of my head, I reached for the knob and opened up the home for the midnight sky to see.

Slowly letting out a deep breath, I made my way back to the car where I found my phone going off.

In quick reaction, I answered.

"Hello?"

In concern, Don Soul asked.

"You got my money hash?"

"I got it." I replied as he then asked.

"All of it?"

"All fifty bucks." I stated as he calmly replied.

"Good. Come on back. We need to talk."

With a smile, I started the car and replied.

"Be there soon."

Going silent, my boss hung up and left me to my own devices.

I soon got started on the way back to the compound.

A smile held strong among my lips as I said to myself.

"What a night."

Believe it or not Hash isn't the worst to come. Not yet. Let me know what you think as always. Another chapter will be on as soon as possible.
