The Fighters
John sits down on his couch, not knowing that something has happened. He grabs the small controller from the counter. "Ummm, let's see." He goes through the channels until he gets to the news channel.
"Oh something interesting." The lays down kicking up his feet onto the handle of the bed. The news girl starts by saying something about a kidnapped girl nearby here. "Damn what are wrong with these people." John commented.
"Next story is that the famous Venum 'The Wolf' Garcia has been in a car crash with the beautiful Lilly Ross." John's eyes grew wide, and instantly sat up on his couch as she continued the story of Venum and Lilly. "The crash was near the hotel of Rosewood. They got into a crash with a blue large truck carrying what is now debris. One of the poles hit Venum in the side of his stomach, trying to save Lilly."
"Sweets! I'm leaving I'll be back!" John sprinted out of his hotel room into the long corridor. What seemed to take seconds he reached the stairs. Rushing down the stairs he felt like he was going to trip, but he wanted to get the Humphrey's brother.
Finally after 5 minutes he bursted out of the exit of the hotel, he forgot that he didn't have a shirt but he didn't care. He only had shorts, and shoes. He reached the parking spot his car was at, and he got in instantly starting the car. Driving off at high speed, he came to a complete stop. When he saw the ambulances, and Lilly's car.
He hopped out running he looked around, but Venum wasn't around. "Where's Venum." He asked a paramedic.
"He left toward the hospital right now, or maybe he's already there." He replied answering his question.
"Thank you so much." He jumped into the drivers seat, and began racing toward the hospital. After 3 minutes he heard police sirens behind him. "God damn it!" He said, and bang on his wheel. John pulled over to the side of the road.
The police officer was walking slow. So John shouted "Hurry up officer I don't have all day!"
He came to the window faster, and asked what the problem was. "Well officer if you didn't notice my friend is almost dying, and I'm sitting here without a clue in the world if he's going to live or not." He calmly answered the officer.
"Alright sir, come with me I'll take you to the hospital, and I'll make someone pick your car up."
"Thank you officer." He got out the car, and ran they ran to the police car.
He placed the sirens on, and went full speed toward the hospital. Minutes later they arrived there. "Thank you officer. I'll have to repay you sometime." He got out, and sprinted toward the large hospital. He opened the door, and scanned the waiting room. John found only 1 person there he knew.
"Kate!" He yelled running toward her. "Where's Humphrey?" She pointed at a direction, and John turned towards it seeing Humphrey walking through the corridor. He ran toward him, helping him get to his seat. "You alright Humphrey?"
Humphrey shook his head. "No I'm not, but.. I'll be fine." He whispered. John helped him to his seat, and they sat down.
Eve was in Venum's room helping him survive. "Keep pressure on it while I get his rest of the body." Eve ran to the large chunk separated from Venum, and picked it up. She ran back, "Alright I got it, remove your paws." They did as she commanded. Eve placed the chunk of meat in him perfectly. "Get the needle and thread." They handed it to her, and calmly Eve sewed it back in place.
"Alright he's going to be fine for now, but we still don't know if he is going to live. He has like a 90% chance that he is going to die. He might leave us." Eve's eyes dropped a tear, of sadness. Her daughters mate was going to die.
"Alright doctor, lets go. You did your best. Let's let the people inside. I'll bring your daughter inside too." Eve nodded, and left the room. Lilly was in bed, as the doctor came in. "Lilly, Venum is finished, but isn't awake yet." Lilly nodded and responded.
"Alright thank you doctor." Lilly got up slowly out of bed, and the doctor escorted her there.
He opened the door to where Venum laid there, and he looked calm. Not afraid, not happy, nor scared. Just calm. His breath was steady, not going rapid, nor slow. Lilly thanked the doctor, as he left. She walked slowly aiming for the chair next to him. It was dark, only one light shown.
Lilly began to form tears again just to see Venum like this. "Oh Venum, why couldn't I be more careful? Why."
Venum placed his hand on her head. "It's fine Lilly." Lilly gasped, and hugged Venum.
"Oh my god Venum you're awake." Venum hugged her back with weakness taking over. "Why did you protect me?"
Venum smiled at this. "Well that's an easy question Lilly, I did it for our family." Venum poked her stomach. She gasped as well knowing that he already knew.
"How did you know?" She replied, if she recalled she never told anyone about being pregnant.
"Well Humphrey and I noticed when we were at Vegas that your stomach was getting bigger, and Lilly I need you to tell Humphrey this." Venum reached her ear and whispered.
Once he finished he set his head back onto his pillow. "I will Venum. I'll go tell him right now."
Venum nodded, "Thank you Lilly. I need to rest now." Venum fell asleep in front of Lilly. Lilly slowly stood up, and walked outside the room.
Humphrey, Kate, and John sat outside the waiting room, when she saw the screen of the camera locations. She slowly walked out into the waiting room. Finally after slow steps she arrived at the room they were all sitting at.
"Lilly you alright?" Humphrey saw, and asked first. They all ran to her helping her up.
"Yeah I'm fine Humphrey. Venum told me to tell you something." Humphrey nodded, so Kate and John left them alone in the corridor. "Venum said that the reason Kate left Garth was because he sometimes abused her, and made her have sex with him, but he said it might not have been true, because he loved her. That time you came to her house and saw Garth at her house, remember when Kate wasn't the one that came down. It was because they were having sex upstairs. Kate didn't have one scratch on her. We both saw that Kate quickly placed her shirt and bra one, before she went down stairs. So the reason she left Garth was, because she didn't love him like she loved you." Once she finished he finally knew why Kate left Garth.
Humphrey nodded and started to leave. He started mumbling a song, but she didn't know the song. Once he finished, Humphrey asked Lilly for her phone. She gave it to him, and He typed a song into youtube. The song was 'Let Him Go' By Julia Sheer. (Yes I know it's originally Let Her Go, but I found Let Him Go so yeah.)
"Listen to that. I believe you haven't heard this song before."
They both go into the waiting room, as Humphrey helps her to her seat. Hours passed as Eve came out. "Humphrey, Lilly, Kate, Sweets, and John. He's awake now." They all got up from their seats, and began walking to his room. Sweets came an hour ago, because John called her, and told her where he was.
Humphrey was still helping Lilly balance John was helping as well, and Kate was talking with Sweets. After a few minutes they arrived to his room, he was singing another song so they stopped and heard the song he was singing.
I dreamed I was missing
You were so scared
But no one would listen
'Cause no one else cared
After my dreaming
I woke with this fear
What am I leaving
When I'm done here?
So if you're asking me
I want you to know
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
And don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest
Don't be afraid
I've taken my beating
I've shared what I've made
I'm strong on the surface
Not all the way through
I've never been perfect
But neither have you
So if you're asking me
I want you to know
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
Don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest
Forgetting all the hurt inside
You've learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come
And save me from myself
I can't be who you are
When my time comes
Forget the wrong that I've done
Help me leave behind some
Reasons to be missed
Don't resent me
And when you're feeling empty
Keep me in your memory
Leave out all the rest
Leave out all the rest
Forgetting all the hurt inside
You've learned to hide so well
Pretending someone else can come
And save me from myself
I can't be who you are
I can't be who you are
His beautiful voice made Lilly tear up a bit again. Eve also teared up, but she gave Lilly comfort. "It's going to be fine Lilly."
They all went in the room that was once darkened, and now it was lightened. "Hey guys whats up?" He whispered, in his voice that he couldn't change until he felt better.
"Hey Venum. How's it like to be in bed?" Humphrey asked sitting down.
"It's boring. Just got some energy back, but I don't think I can make it." Humphrey got in Venum's face.
"You're going to make it. No matter what happens." Humphrey started to form tears.
"Humphrey it's fine. I'm not going to be undefeated either way. You're going to have to complete that task for me."
"No you're going t-"
"Humphrey!" Venum yelled, making Humphrey accept that he was dying. "I'm not going to make it and everybody knows it. You heard Eve I have a 98% chance of making it."
Venum took out a pencil and a blank sheet of paper. He started writing things down, then when he was finished he handed it to him. "You guys should leave now." Humphrey placed the paper in his black shorts.
They all nodded and Lilly gave him a passionate kiss. Once they broke the kiss up Lilly sobbed out these words. "I will always love you."
Everybody walked out of the hospital helping Lilly get to Kate's car. Humphrey went to his car, and John and Sweets went to John's car that Sweets brought back from home. They all went their separate ways, and ended the day by sleeping when they got home.
MONTHS LATER
Winston took out his pistol and aimed it at a wolf. "Hold it right there!" He yelled at him. Either way the wolf continued to walk towards him. Winston shot three bullets to the body, but nothing happened. 'Maybe it's a bullet proof vest.' He thought, so he shot him in the legs. The wolf fell to the ground, with blood wounds. Winston ran to him, and knocked him down hand cuffing him. "You're done with killing innocent wolves." He pushed him into the back seat of the police car.
Winston pulled out his radio, "I got the killer. Heading back to the department."
"Copy that 241. Return to base." He got into the car and drove to the police department.
Humphrey was getting ready for a fight he was in Vegas. Warming up he wiggled his arms, and hopped on his legs. "You ready?" Humphrey's new couch asked.
He nodded, and his new song came on. 'Never too late' by Three Days Grace.
Humphrey started walking out, without a care in the world. He just walked out with a serious look. Humphrey was now a welterweight instead of a lightweight. He will be the one protecting Venum's championship. Something caught his eye in the crowd, it looked like his brother Venum. Humphrey knew it couldn't be possible, so he just continued to walk into the ring. He quickly tapped gloves with Hendrick, and moved to his corner.
Bruce was about to start, but Humphrey zoned out looking towards Lilly. She was sitting down with Arianny Celeste. Lilly still had tears coming down her violet eyes from Venum's death, and Humphrey was going to make sure Venum's title was still his brothers title. He practiced his tail off to make this fight. When he stopped zoning out the referee was calling them to the middle.
"Alright guys I believe you know the rules, both of you have been here long enough to remember them, but I want a clean fight, obey all my orders, no cheap shots, touch gloves let's make this official." Hendrick touched gloves with Humphrey and they walked back to their corners.
Hendrick was fighting to get the title again, but Humphrey was the one defending it. "You ready Humphrey?" He nodded and then he pointed at Hendrick. "You ready?" He got into his stance and they began. "Alright let's go."
The crowd goes wild as they touch gloves. Humphrey is the first one to make a hit. He throws a leg kick, making contact. Hendrick's leg gets weaker and off balance he goes for a takedown, and completes it. Humphrey quickly goes into side control, and bangs on his head. Humphrey gets tired of this so he goes for a quick arm bar. He rotates into an armbar pulling down and pushing his hips up, Hendrick doesn't tap so his hips go higher. Hendrick screams out with pain, and finally he taps. Humphrey quickly lets go, and he is pulled away from Hendricks arm.
Humphrey jumps onto the ring and yells. "This is what my brother taught me!" As he yelled that he pointed to the sky.
Hours passed as they got off the plane, Humphrey didn't want to stay in Vegas at all. Humphrey got a miss call from John on the plain. So he decided to call back. Seconds passed, and John answered. "Hello?"
"Hey John, what's up?"
"Nothing much. You?"
"Same just got back from Vegas."
"I thought you were going to be there for a bit more time."
"No I didn't want to stay there very long."
"Oh."
"Hey mind if I go to your house?"
"Actually meet me at the carnival. I need to pick Sweets up."
"Hey what about I invite Kate, and Lilly to go to the carnival, so we can all go together."
"Alright then. I'll see you guys there."
"Later." They hung up the phone, and Humphrey started to dial Kate.
Time skip.
Lilly was getting out of the car with a big planet inside her. "You alright Lilly?" Humphrey asked.
"Yeah I'm fine. Just need some water." Kate looked inside the car, and pulled out some water.
"Here I have some. Take a sip little sis." Kate replied smiling at Lilly handing her the bottle.
"Thank Kate." She took the cool water and started drinking some making her body feel refreshed. "I really needed that." She finished drinking.
They started hanging out at the carnival, before they could get on a ride they could hear John screaming at an officer. "Hey you asshole you talk about my car like that I will pop you in the nose." He angrily yelled.
The group arrived there, and they saw his car next to an officer's car. There was a ticket on the ground that said. 'Fine $3,000 Explain the reason Being an ugly car.'
"Go ahead we'll send you to jail smart one." John grinned at this.
"Yeah and if you don't hear from my fist you'll be hearing from my lawyer." John raised his fist, and decked him in the face. The officer fell down holding his nose. Other cops came running at him, but John was too fast. He did a spinning heel kick to one of the officer's face, and the other tried to tackle him. John was smarter than the cop, so he ducked down to his feet. The officer tripped over him, and face planted.
"Talk shit about my car again, and I'll kill you next time." John spit on the officer that was lying on the car.
Humphrey was laughing his tail off, and Lilly and Kate where looking behind John.
John turned around and got tackled by Winston. "Hey John, long time no see."
He grunted knowing he was going back to jail. "Come on Winston you saw what they did."
"Yeah I did, so that's why I'm letting you off the hook. If they catch you just let me know. I got your back." Winston got up from the ground, and pulled John up. "Alright all of you. Go have fun, and try not to get in trouble." They all nodded, as they left to have fun in the carnival.
So Winston let John off the hook, because the cops deserved the tail whooping. Now we all know that Venum might be dead, but who knows, maybe he would have gotten lucky or Eve is the best Surgeon around. Thanks for reading it's way longer than the last chapter, and sorry about that too. Please leave a review it helps me out a lot of how I'm doing. Oh and if you would like to leave an Oc then I'll be glad to place him/her in the story. John Black is the Oc of MadGhost57, and he also wanted this fighting scene a loooooong time ago. So now I made it happen. Date: 09/06/2014 Later.
