Hey, only two chapters after this. You have to tell me when it ends if you want a sequel because I am pretty sure you all will want one XD

Chapter Thirteen

-Yet no more innocences remains still something in me desires such a curtain, something that is not that first, battered burning pain, that stripped me of a life I once walked-

Ben just stared transfixed fixed at Kevin who had on hand on his head the other on the gun looking at it with the strangest look. It didn't suit him in the slightest but at the same time it sent shivers down Ben's spine. Ben could see the sway in Kevin's hips like he was dancing to music in his head. Strange music because he was grinning like some maniac.

Ben's eyes moved to Albedo almost desperate for an answer to this strange creature that had taken his friends body before him. Albedo smiled in a slight way showing just a few teeth after swallowing what was in his mouth from his smoothie. He moved from his spot to Ben's side careful of Kevin as if Kevin was a wild animal and somehow that gleam in Kevin's eyes stated he was. Ben looked to Albedo, Luke now forgotten, Luke forgetting himself to a point as well, when Albedo stood right next to Ben leaning down to whisper for the three of them to hear.

"Chemical X, short lasting drug. It is a drug that was put on the street about the time you were in my care. I looked into Kevin's records he was a supposed dealer and user. From his reaction: Not a user, probably a dealer from how he knew what it was... I think. I also think a Shifter user. Probably still uses." Albedo laughed, "legal drug, treatment for insanity!"

Luke glared at Albedo before back to Ben's friend frowning at the way the other moved causing a jerky motion which made the gun to go off. Kevin stared at it before laughing.

"What do you mean 'shifter user'?" Luke growled out though it held nothing but his coughing instead of as a bark.

"Shifter users. It is a drug given out to a few with a genetic defect. It keeps them sane. Chemical X makes the normal insane. Very power stuff." Albedo looked at Luke, "Vilgax was selling it, Kevin here was brought in by Vilgax once. Not to the cops. To a 'cheap' shop he use to run. Oh, didn't you know. But don't worry. I'm testing something. I'm winning. Ben go see Kevin. Give him a kiss."

Ben's eyes went wide then he nodded weakly walking forward then looking down. He was going to die by his best friends hand who he secretly crushed for these last few weeks, if not longer he felt by how easy it was to trust Kevin!

Luke moved his head slightly fearful for Ben's safety as Albedo moved to Luke's side, "I want you to watch. Son of Vilgax. I want you to suffer. I see how Ben is 'close' now to this one. He use to always call for 'Kevin'. I did a lot of research into it. Vilgax didn't like his toys attached to another person so Kevin's life had to be... threatened. Throw in some 'charges' and Vilgax had Kevin's life ruined. School no more, life no more. Everything gone. Better yet," Luke looked up at Albedo, "I found my 'replacement killer'." Luke moved thrashing in his restraints his mind thinking on how a kid, Kevin, who had a life was going to be forced into insanity and a murderer by a psychopath.

"BEN! GET AWAY FROM HIM!" Luke screamed as loud as he could before Albedo's elbow landed on his chest the pain so uncomfortable that he coughed-moaned. He heard three more shots and he wanted to cry out for the boy.

Then the sound of giddy laughter, fist against flesh, a body on the floor harshly meeting it.

Luke felt the bed shifting and he was soon able to turn his head to watch better. Luke could hear the slurping sound of Albedo at his side as he watched Kevin raise the gun slamming it down into Ben's shoulders and chest, occasionally face. It was Kevin's face that did it to the cop, the sadistic glee, the lust for more. The splattered blood look and the lust for more.

Luke paled so much more he felt faint.

It wasn't until just a bit later the gun was tossed the sound of it going off and Albedo sighed, "Idiot." that Luke noticed what was then happening. Ben and Kevin kissing. What the hell had happened.
