Chapter 43: Prisoners' Death Sentence
All four of the prisoners dispersed to get away from these guys and all of them were panting in fear and one of them said, "They killed Griffin! I'm gonna waste another second in this dump!"
"Let's split up. We may lose them if we all take separate directions and to escape. That way, if they don't know where we are, we have a better shot at getting out of the country." another prisoner replied.
They agreed with that plan and they all took different routes to not get caught by the Lords of Salem, but what most of them don't know is that by doing so, the Salems are setting traps for them as soon they heard the plan and they are not holding back any punches or traps they have up their sleeves and they'll be there to see them in action.
One prisoner wanders around the further side of the cave to find a way out, but is keeping his guard up in case something goes afoot, but deep inside he's just scared out of his gourd after witnessing Griffin die right in front of him and he's doing everything he can to stay alive and free. Suddenly, he hears a couple of rattling sounds and he immediately leaps into action to see what's happening, but it became silent after a while.
"I'm warning you...I'm a dangerous dude! I've murdered 10,000 chicks all across the country and even took their virginities! There's no doubt I'll kill you!" one prisoner spat out.
But even his bragadociousness about what he did didn't stop him from being so terrified about what's to come and just then, a little rope comes flying in the air and he's curious about where it came from and as he got closer and closer, he's a little afraid about what purpose they'll use for the rope. Once he got the rope, the rope all of a sudden wraps his neck around him and he screamed for help as he tried to break free, but the rope has him right where he wants him and carries him up in the air and the rope gets tighter and tighter and with his final breath, he finally dies, hanging around with his rope.
Another prisoner kept running and running after noticing that he's being chased by one of the Lords of Salem and he tried his very best to lose them, but he became more moritifed when it turns that one of the Salem kids have fast sneakers that go up to 200 miles an hour. The prisoner tried to lose him and he kept running and running until he slips and falls down on the ground, injuring his leg. He grunts in pain as he feels the deep injury on his leg and that proved to be bad timing for him because now he can't run faster.
"No, not now..." the injured prisoner said, whimpering.
Sonic and Pumpking stopped and saw one of the prisoner crawling to escape them. but of course...they have him on their sights as they come closer to him with knives and a sledgehammer blade as Sonic said, "Going somewhere?"
The injured prisoner looked at both of them as they walked slowly and he kept crawling faster and whimpering at the same time trying to lose them, but his injury is so harsh that it's hard to take one more crawl and just then, they both grabbed him by the shoulder and dragged him down to the ground. Pumpking grabbed him by the neck and said, "Wonder what you would look like without your head?"
Once Pumpking said that, fear transforms into panic for this terrified injured prisoner and said, "Please, don't! Don't chop of my head!"
Sonic tied him up with his hands behind his back and the prisoner tried to break free, but the rope was so tight that it's impossible to break free and Sonic asked, "Shall we?"
"We shall." Pumpking replied, holding out his knife.
"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, please! Don't do this! I'll do anything you want! Just don't cut my head off!" the prisoner pleaded.
Both Sonic and Pumpking ignored his pleas and just went straight for it as they behead the prisoner's head off while he's screaming in terror as the blood starts coming out of its head and they just took the head and placed the knife on the inside of his head and both of them left the headless prisoner there to die.
On another section of the cave, the other prisoner made was almost at his escape route and ran faster and faster until he finds himself surrounded by the mist around and soon enough, all of the lords of Salem surround him and the prisoner holds out his gun pointing at them, but they saw him shake in fear, indicating that he's not as bold as he would like to think he was.
"You're such an idiot...and a wimp!" Sonic responded.
"Yeah, we can take you down in no time." Pyro responded.
"I'm warning you guys...I can take all of you out right now! My backup gang are escaping this place right now and they'll be here any minute to attack you!" the fearful prisoner replied.
Casper chuckled at this and said, "You mean they had the opportunity to escape, but didn't?"
"What are you talking about?" asked the prisoner.
The Lords of Salem looked at each other and figured should they or shouldn't tell him they the two backup prisoners are dead and Casper said, "Let's just say...we'll let you join them."
Once that prisoner figured out what he meant by that, Casper snapped his fingers and all of a sudden, a sharp stick shoots up from the ground and struck him in the stomach and back, impaling him to a bloody pulp and that one prisoner got struck so severely that his blood dripped out of his butt like he was peeing blood backwards.
"We did not want to see blood pour out of his butt." Absolom replied.
"That's four down and one more to go..." Casper said, chuckling.
