Love Struck
Chapter 144 - Think About It
Dove's POV
The hedgehog held the trigger and at the same time stared into my soul with his red crimson eyes.
"Why?" He asked me as the other hedgehog slept soundly.
I tried to find an answer but at the same time his body became clear through my blurry vision.
The first thing I saw was the red crimson eyes he held at my purple orbs. He was wearing jeans along with a black tank top. His boots looked military but so do all them these days in Pakistan. Pure black fur with…red crimson streaks. Along his arms, legs, and a long one going along his main quill on his forehead. I was too shocked to respond to him.
"Why?" He asked once again as I stared at him in fear.
Exposing his teeth he got annoyed and pulled the trigger.
"BANG!"
I jumped as the hedgehog's brains splattered along the ground. With fear installed in my body I slowly backed up as he stood up off the dead hog's back slowly placing his gun behind his pants.
Slowly he looked back at me and said.
"I knew there wasn't any reason for a scumbag like him to live after that."
I stayed there unable to respond as he asked.
"You going to wake up your kid or continue to let her sleep?"
With shock of forgetting I jumped on over to Midnight who rested on the ground along with a bloody lip.
"Midnight!" I shouted at her as her eyes flickered.
He continued to watch me from behind as she woke up.
"Mommy?: Said Midnight as she lifted her head into my arms.
"It's ok honey, everything is fine now!" I stated.
"Is the mean man gone?" She asked in pain.
"Yes hon he is!" I replied.
"Are you ok?" Asked the man as I looked back at him.
With fear I stood up and replied.
"I'm fine."
He smiled and slowly asked.
"I saw what happened back there with your boyfriend I'm guessing. Do you want help getting him back?"
With shock of the question I replied.
"What's going on?"
He smiled at me in confused a look and replied.
"Your boyfriend was kidnapped by that thug. Do you want to get him back?"
I stared into his eyes and replied.
"What are you doing here?"
Once again he smiled and began to approach me. Slowly I backed up and he replied.
"I'm not going to hurt you."
With fear everywhere I stopped as Midnight finally got a look at him.
"Shadow!"
Shadow smiled at her and asked.
"How does she know me?"
With confusion I replied.
"Shouldn't you be at the base resting?"
Shadow looked at me in confusion again and replied.
"What are you talking about? I saw you in trouble and I helped before it was too late. I'm not one of those terrorists!" He stated in anger.
"But…but…!?" He cut me off.
"Do you want to get back your boyfriend or not?"
With Midnight staring at me and me staring at Shadow I replied with a nod of my head.
Shadow smiled and replied.
"Then follow me; I know where they went."
With confusion as he turned we followed and as he lead us out into the street I saw him in the light.
It was Shadow. He looked younger at least by a year or two. No wounds, no scars from the fire, no starvation in his body. He looked perfect. What the hell is going on?
As we walked he looked back into my eyes and smiled. His crimson eyes seemed different. It was like staring into a mirror though. Am I going crazy? Or is this Shadow?
Raptor's POV
I stared into John's eyes as he asked.
"Are you going to say anything?"
With a calm breath I took out my knife from behind my back.
John widened his eyes as I knew Hannon was coming at the door.
"Smack!"
With anger I kicked my chair back placing it on the door so they couldn't get in.
John remained seated as I slammed my blade down on the table.
"Bang!"
His eyes flickered in fear as I started.
"This is how it is going to go so listen up!"
John stared at me as I continued.
"For each time you ether lie! Refuse! Or disrespect me! You'll lose a finger! Got it!?" I asked as John replied.
"Your crazy!"
With already given the warning I took the blade and smacked it on his pinky.
"AGHHHHHHHH!" He screamed as his pinky rolled off the table.
"That's one for disrespect John!" I stated as he cried in pain.
John's finger squirted along the table as I heard Hannon try to brake in.
"What were you doing with the guns!?" I asked as he shook his head.
"Your fucking insane man!"
"Smack!"
"AGHHHHHHHHHH!" He screamed as his ring finger came off.
Tears poured down his eyes as I wiped his blood off my blade and onto my pants.
"Two down, eight to go!" I stated as he looked back at his left hand.
"What were you doing with those guns!?" I asked as he replied.
"I can't tell you!"
"Smack!"
"AGHHHHHHH!" He cried in pain as his middle finger rolled off the side of the blood covered table.
"WHERE WERE YOU GOING WITH THEM!?" I asked as he begged.
"STOP PLEASE!"
"Smack!"
"AGHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
John's pointer finger fell off his hand as I went straight to the thumb.
"Smack!"
"AGHHHHHHHHHHHH!" He cried as he was left with a stub for a left hand.
"WHO WERE YOU GIVING THEM TO!?" I asked in rage.
"NO ONE!" He replied in tears.
"Smack!"
"AGHHHHHHHHH!" He screamed as I began to work on his right hand.
This time his second thumb fell off from my blade as he cried out hoping for someone to save him.
"WHO BOUGHT THEM!?" I asked as he replied.
"PLEASE STOP IT!"
"Smack!"
I took off two fingers this time. His pointer and his middle all in one shot.
"WHAT WERE THEY FOR!?" I asked in rage.
"Stop…please…just please….stop…I'm begging…you."
"Smack!"
"Aghhhhhhhhhh!" He screamed losing his voice as he was down to one last finger.
"I'm not afraid to chop off this one too little piggy!" I stated as he screamed.
"G.U.N!"
With anger I sent the blade down.
"Smack!"
Unable to respond he lowered his head as both his hands remained on the table slowly draining all the blood in his body.
"What did you say?!" I asked in anger.
With a full red face and blood everywhere he replied.
"I was giving them to G.U.N….they bought them from my boss Dreil for five hundred thousand dollars. G.U.N needed guns and Dreil took advantage of the offer while the rebellion wasn't doing anything."
"Where is he?!" I asked as the banging on the door stopped.
Dying out John replied.
"I think your soldier killed him."
"Where is his hideout!? I need to know even if that is true?!" I asked getting close to his face.
"He lives in one of the old mansions on Drillment Avenue. Please don't hurt me anymore." He begged in tears.
"I won't." I replied as I sent the blade into the side of his neck.
"Ughhhh…ghhhhhh!" He gagged as blood came up from his mouth.
Slowly I backed up and watched as he fell over dead amongst his stub hands.
With anger I came and pulled my blade out of his neck and slowly wiped it off placing it back behind my back.
I took one last breath and looked at the fingers that rested on the ground.
As I saw the bones I went to the door and kicked the chair out of the way freeing it open.
Slowly I opened it to find Hannon, Archer, and Dom staring at me in shock as I said.
"I'm taking my men out immediately to go kill the rest of them. Your free to come if you want."
With that I went for the door.
"Raptor!" Screamed Hannon as I went away.
Shadow's POV
"She didn't answer." Stated Silver as I saw my heart rate increase on the laptop.
"You need to find him." I begged as Silver replied.
"I'll send someone to find him don't worry. I'm sure he's fine."
I tried to get up but Silver held me down.
"You can't Shadow. Your body is hurt. Understand that. You need to rest. We can handle this." Stated Silver as I continued to rest my weary head on the warm pillow.
Ghost's POV
"Ughhhhh!" I gagged as blood poured out of my mouth from all the beatings.
The men laughed as I coughed out a tooth among the rest of my guts.
"I think he's going to die!" Stated one of the guards as he used his foot to move my head.
"Does Dreil want us to kill him?!" Asked another man as another replied.
"I forgot!"
Quickly he got on his knees and grabbed the back of my bloody quills.
"Do you want us to stop?" He asked as I coughed up blood.
"Please." I begged as he released my head back into my blood.
"If the boss didn't want you we would have finished you off by now. Don't worry though. Ether you'll die here or someplace else. You'll get yours soon enough. Come on guys let's go!" He ordered the rest of his men as one of them kicked me in the chest.
"Ughhh!" I gagged as he laughed at my pain.
Confusing right? Tell me what you think is going on. Maybe you'll be the first one to figure it all out.
