“Flame!”
The asshole beneath me was watching me. His blue eyes frozen on mine. I hated meeting eyes. Even dead, I fucking hated this fucker meeting my eyes. Lifting my blade, I slammed it in his left eye. My cock hardened seeing the eye split in two. “Die. Die. Die!” I growled, as I stabbed at his now-empty eye socket.
“Flame!” I distantly heard my name called. I had to kill him. I had to make sure he wouldn’t harm Maddie and the baby ever again. “FLAME! Help me!” My hand froze and I closed my eyes when Ash’s voice cut through the fog in my head.
Ash… Ash…!
I snapped my head up and searched for Ash. I froze when I found him. Some cunt had hold of him, arm around his neck. He had a motherfucking gun to Ash’s head. I jumped to my feet. My skin was wet. The blood. My cock twitched when I saw I was wet with an enemy’s blood. “Flame…” Ash’s voice cut out as he tried to speak, it cracked like it had in the forest. That pain in my chest I fucking hated was back. “Help me,” he whispered. His fucking bloodied bottom lip trembled.
“Let him go,” I warned, rolling my neck, holding the handles of my blades tighter. I was gonna fucking kill the bastard that held him. I was gonna tear him the fuck apart for touching my brother. My anger grew and grew, the flames in my blood grew hotter and hotter when I saw blood coming from Ash’s mouth, when one of his cheeks started swelling. I fucking looked into Ash’s black eyes. I didn’t know why they looked the way they did. But my stomach clenched. They looked different. They were wider than normal. His pupils were dilated. It made me wanna go and rip him from the fucker’s arms and stab the bastard in the neck.
“Let him go,” I spat, as I licked along my knife. It still had the blood and slivers of bone on the steel from the asshole on the ground. He was dead. One of them was dead. Now, I needed to kill them all. All of them had to die for hurting Maddie and the baby.
And now Ash. Now they had hurt Ash…
“Put the fucking knives down,” the asshole holding Ash said. I heard movement from behind me. I tightened my grip on my blades, ready to attack. The asshole pressed his gun harder against Ash’s head. Ash closed his eyes. He looked dead. Like that, my brother looked fucking dead!
“LET HIM THE FUCK GO!” I roared. Someone moved behind me again. I turned, ready to slice into them, cut their skull in two. Then I froze. I stopped when something fisted my lungs. My fucking lungs wouldn’t work. The flames in my blood began to roar, fucking roar and burn me from inside.
A snake. No… he had a fucking snake…
The cunt in front of me had a gun at my face. But he had a snake around his neck. A snake, just like… just like… you’re evil, Josiah. The devil lives in your heart, demons run thick in your blood…
My fucking chest began to cave in and my hands shook. Shook so fucking bad I dropped my blades to the ground. I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t fucking breathe! The snakes hissed. My blood began to run too fast in my veins. It was the evil, the demons inside my soul calling to the snake. You see, Josiah, you see how the devil’s own recognizes the blackness in your soul. This is proof. Proof that you are evil. That you condemn everything and everyone you touch. That the flames of hell run thickly in your veins. My poppa smiled. I didn’t know why he was smiling. You’re retarded. A heathen. An agent of evil that we will take down. My poppa nodded to Pastor Hughes. Do what you must. They brought the snakes forward, and the snakes sunk their teeth into my flesh…
“What’s the matter, asshole? You don’t like snakes?” I tried to get up, but my body was fucking burning, keeping me down. I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t fucking breathe!
“Flame! What’s wrong? What the fuck is wrong?!” I turned my head to Ash. His face was pale as he looked at me. I had to help him. I had to get that cunt from behind my brother. Ash was trying to get to me, kicking his legs and trying to wrestle from his captor’s hold. No... He couldn’t come to me. The flames, the demons… they would get him. I would fucking do something to cause him pain. I couldn’t hurt him too. Mama, Isaiah, Maddie, the baby… I couldn’t hurt Ash too. “Flame! FLAME!” Ash’s voice cracked. I was on my hands and knees. I didn’t remember getting on my hands and knees. I couldn’t get up. I couldn’t fucking get up! “FLAME!”
