Chapter 30: breaking point
EARTH-GOVERMENT HQ
night shadow was walking back and forth as black haze and vanish were taking turns torturing discord who was now bleeding and bruised. Night shadow then stopped as he then turned to his former master "well discord. You having fun yet?".
Discord just looked at him with anger in his eyes, night shadow then smirked at him as he turned away "oh what am I saying of course your not having fun. Hmmm well we may have to fix that shall we" he then turned to black haze "haze. Could you be a pal and go send for Adam for me. I have an assignment for him".
Black haze nodded as he then walked over to the elevator and transformed into his human form as the doors closed, night shadow then turned to discord with his eyes glowing red "once Adam comes back from his assignment. I'm going to take your power away from you and if you even try to defend yourself. Well...let's just say that you then be having a very horrible day. Hehehehehahahaha".
Adam was in the building on the fifth floor as he was smoking and burning photos of his son dillon with a lighter, he was in deep thought as he tapped his foot rapidly "hmmm. How in the hell did he escape? Hmmmmmm...hehehe now matter. Knowing the number of wounds that I gave him. I know that he's already dead". He then heard the elevator door open in the other room as he then got up to see who it was.
He walked out of the small room and into the hallway that led to the elevator and saw it open reviling black haze walking out, Adam smiled darkly at him "hello mr. Haze" he said.
"hello Adam. Still thinking about your son?".
"a bit. But it's noting really. I already know that he is dead".
"well...that's too bad. But look on the bright side. At least he can join his cousin now".
"true very true. I wonder how that animal pony whore is taking it being without a man".
"hehehe. I bet she is crying her worthless eyes out".
Both of them laughed until black haze placed his hand on adam's shoulder, Adam looked at him as he knew that he had to do something for him "anyway Adam. I have something that I need you to do for me" black haze said. Adam sighed with a smile "very well. What is it?", he then told him about what he wanted to do for him.
"ok got it. I shall be back shortly".
Adam then flash stepped out of the building as black haze went back to the elevator. As he pressed the button for the basement he leaned back and had a look of satisfaction on his face "I can't wait to see the look on discord's face when we show him our little surprise" he said to himself.
BAR
Lucy was sitting at the table as she was drinking down shot after shot of whisky, she was still upset about her brother's death but during the past four weeks she had been getting better, well mostly. The bar owner then walked up to her and laid his elbows on the table "ummm miss. I think you had enough to drink" he said.
Lucy then slammed the shot glass down making it crack "I still need more" she demanded, the bar owner just shook his head "come on lady. I'm on my last bottle. You have completely drank over four hundred and sixty two shots of whisky. And you still want more. How in the hell do you hold that all down?".
"I'm fucking magic that's how".
The owner sighed "man. You must have had some break up huh?" he asked her.
"I have a boyfriend".
"then why are you drinking so much then?".
"a family member of mine is dead".
"shit. I'm sorry about that".
"it's fine. It's kinda my fault that he's gone".
"what was your family members name?".
"clayton. He was my...little baby brother" Lucy said in a upset tone.
"Clayton huh. Man you must really miss him".
"yea...I do".
"mind telling me what he was like. I mean if you want".
Lucy then hiccuped as she looked at her empty shot glass, "he was kind, reckless, wild, fearless, always full of energy, a real good friend, and he was always close with his cousin" she finished.
The bar owner smiled "wow. Sounds like he was a good kid".
"yea...he was. Hmmm I wonder what my cousin is up to?".
"oh I think I can answer that" a voice said.
The two then turned around to see that it was Adam in the entrance, Lucy then blinked at him "uncle Adam. What are you doing in town? I thought you were not coming back" she said. Adam then started to walk into the bar over to her "oh I just wanted to see how everyone is doing. I finally got to see my son. Although he was not very happy to see me" he said "but we got along just fine".
"that's good to hear" Lucy said.
Adam smiled "yea it is. Hey if you want we can go talk to him right now" he suggested, Lucy thought that it would be a good idea to talk with her cousin seeing that him and her brother were extremely close with one another. She then pulled out some money out of her pocket and put it on the front table for the owner "just a little something for ya. And a little extra" she said as she got up from her seat and walked out the door.
The bar owner then looked at the money to see that she had given him $300 dollars and $999 dollar tip, he smiled at the kind act that she had done for him as he put the money in his pocket "how nice of her. Now I can feed my family for a good month" he said to himself, Adam then leaned over to him "yea that is very nice of her" he said. He then pulled out a small knife and stabbed the man in the neck killing him instantly as he then took the money from his pocket as he hit the floor.
Adam then put the money in his trench coat as he grinned darkly "but hey look on the bright side. You now have one less mouth to feed". He then walked out of the bar and into the car as they drove off, as they were driving Adam then looks over at Lucy who was staring out of the car window.
Lucy then turned to her uncle "hey uncle Adam" she said.
"yes lucy?".
"were are we going if I may ask?".
"oh were just going for a ride to see my son".
She smiles as she goes back to looking out the window, they keep driving as they then stopped in an alley, Adam then gets out of the car and walks over to the passengers side and opens the door of Lucy as she gets out. Lucy then walks in front of the car and looks around but doesn't see anyone.
"hey uncle".
"yes?".
"you said that we were gonna see dillon right?".
"I did".
"but were is he".
He then walks up to her "oh I think I see him over there" he said as he pointed over to a dumpster, as soon as she looks over at the dumpster bin Adam then pulls out a black jack and hits her in the back of the head knocking her out. He then picks her up and carries her as he walks inside a back door.
GOVERMENT HQ-PRISON ROOM
Adam walks into the cell room as he still carries his nephew on his shoulder, he then opens the cell door and throws her inside as he locks the door up. Lucy then comes to in a few seconds as she looks at her surroundings and sees her uncle standing at the cell door as she then runs up to him "uncle! What is the meaning of this!" she asks, Adam just looks at her smiling "oh this is nothing. Just a little something for you until my bosses are finished with there work" he said.
"were is dillon! Where is my cousin?!".
"oh right...my son. Well all I can say is this Lucy. He won't be seeing the light of day anytime soon for a few years".
Lucy then understood what he was getting at.
"y-you mean...he's...he's".
"that's right. DEAD!".
"she then drops to the ground in shock "b-but. Who could have done this?", her uncle then leans down to her "take a look in front of you" he said. Her eyes then go wide as she hears him say that to her "y-you mean that...you killed him?".
"that's it".
Lucy was horrified to hear what her uncle had said as she covered her mouth with her hands, Adam then laughed a bit "you really think that really loved that boy. Well think again. I never loved him nor will I ever regret what I did to him", he then walks out of the room leaving Lucy all alone as she gets into a fetal position and cries silently.
Adam then gets into the elevator and goes back up to his room. He then gets out his cell phone and calls up black haze:
"hello?".
"I got her sir. She is in...good care".
"very good Adam".
"no problem".
"well will take it from here my friend. Please in joy the gift that I gave you in your room".
They both they hang up as Adam gets out of the elevator and walks into his room to see that there is a huge huge pile of money and gold bars on the floor, he grins at his reward as he walks over to it "thank you for the gift black haze" he said as he counted his money.
Black haze then walks up to night shadow who was sitting in his chair thinking.
"Adam did well. He has Lucy in the cell room on the 32th floor" he said, night shadow turned to him "excellent" be then gets up and walks over to discord as he then places his hoof on his body.
"now please try not to move. Because this is going to hurt you a lot" night shadow said as he then painfully drained discord of his powers as the god of chaos winced and gritted his teeth in pain as he knew that this would be a long and painful night for him.
