Quick panting and running was all that could be heard. Jack ran as fast as he could with Mark hot on his heels. No, this wasn't anything romantic. Jack was running for his LIFE. Jack ran with genuine fear. Mark- no, something was chasing him. That wasn't Mark, not the one Jack grew to love. Jacks lungs burned, his legs pounding. But he didn't care, he had to run!
Jack tripped on a root of a tree, and before he could get up, he felt a foot on his back, pressing him back down into the dirt. His eyes stung with tears and dirt as he panted heavily.
"Please, no..." Were the only words Jack could mumble. He was so out of breath, so tired, part of him was just willing to let this creature with Marks form take him from this world.
Mark, or whatever this was, smirked devilishly and pressed Jack into the ground harder, restricting the irishman to breathe properly. Jack panted unevenly and struggled under the suffocating pressure of The Creature's strength.
"Wh-What do you want with m-me?" Jack struggled to say and The Creature chuckled darkly.
"I want for you to perish! You don't deserve Mark! You never have! You're useless! You're only stressing him out more! He hates you!" The Creature with Marks image shouted at Jack with an assertive voice. Jack's eyes watered up further with tears as he heard the words. Maybe The Creature was right. Maybe he was stressing out Mark a little. Jack was sobbing now, but he knew he couldn't let this thing take complete control of his thoughts.
"No! Mark loves me!" Jack shouted back, making The Creature roar with laughter.
"Think about it! Someone like you, with him?" The Creature laughed harder. Jack still struggled. With every word The Creature said, Jack felt it press harder into his back, at one point he could feel a sharp pain shoot through it.
"And now... " The Creature said darkly. "You perish..." The creature stomped through Jack's back, killing him instantly.
Jack woke up with an ear piercing scream, startling the German-Korean at his side awake.
"J-Jack?!" Mark looked at the Irish man at his side, only to see him practically hyperventilating. Mark immediately wrapped Jack in a tight hug, in which Jack returned instantaneously. Marks eyebrows furrowed and his lips turned into a frown as he saw the man he loved in distress. Jack cried softly into Mark's broad chest. Mark sighed softly as he continued to comfort his lover.
"Jack what's wrong?" Mark mumbled softly to Jack.
"I-It's j-just a small nightmare... nothing big..." he mumbled in response. Mark frowned a little bit more. "Jack, please... you obviously seem torn up about it." Mark said softly. Jack took a shaky breath.
He began explaining the horrid dream he had, not giving too much detail. Mark listened closely, not ignoring any information given. Jack nourished in Mark's comfort, loving the feeling of Mark's strong arms around his smaller body. Jack shook for a while after he finished explaining the dream to his lover.
"It's just a dream, Jack... I wouldn't let anything like that happen to you..." Mark promised. The green haired male nodded slowly and snuggled into Mark's chest, loving the comfort.
After that little incident, Mark took Jack out to relax his mind. They took a walk through the park, listening to the sweet violin that played the same day they got together, relishing in the beautiful sounds. They sat down on a bench and relaxed with each other. Mark had an arm around Jack's shoulders, and Jack had his head on Mark's shoulder, curling up against him. They relaxed completely, letting out deep breaths.
UNKNOWN'S POV
I walked around the institution, sighing as I thought of a plan for my next target. I shook my head. Why was I doing this? No, I'm seriously asking. I don't know what the hell I myself into... I hated my Job more than anything in the world. But I got paid good money...
I suddenly felt a tap on my shoulder. I spun around to see who it was. It was my second in command. Minx.
"Any ideas on how to exterminate the target?" She asked in her squeaky british voice. I shake my head.
"None, yet. However, I have an option. We could exterminate them like we did our other target..." He sighed. Minx blinked.
"Are you talking about Cartoonz? Oh, right... How we used Delirious' dark side to exterminate him for Vanoss?" She asked. I nodded. "Sounds fine to me." She nodded. "Shall I make preparations, Mr. Cry?"
I nodded in response. As soon as she left, I removed my mask. I knew she didn't like it here just as much as I didn't. She was supernaturally talented in the arts of sneaking and assassination, so they made her join. They threatened to take her wife Krism away from her, which is the only reason she works here. I don't think anyone that works here enjoys it. Especially not Felix. He was forced here because of the same reason, though he was better at distractions. I had nothing keeping me here, they just threatened my family. I was the best, therefore I was the leader.
I hated my job... but it had to be done...
