Brutality. [Murder number one}

[Markus Simons]

Now a days, it seemed a person could find rope anywhere. If you knew where to look. And Markus knew just where to peek. Markus was dragging Kurt through the woods, his arms and legs tied. He was gagged, his screams barely audiable.

The only thing out of the boys mouth seemed to be 'Zane.'

Markus smirked, pulling the guy up and hanging him on a high branch in the middle of the woods, his body in full view of Markus. No one would save him now. Especially not his beloved 'Zane.'

"You think he wants you? You think he cares? He doesnt. He never loved you. He never will. This Zane kid cant save you, baby." He whispered to him.

[Kurt Casper]

Kurt tried to scream, tugging against the rope that bound him. Tears fell down his cheeks, falling onto his bare chest. His pants clung to his legs, barely held up. He felt his feet being tugged as Markus pounded a stake into the ground, a rope tied from his feet to the stake.

"NN!" was his pitiful attempt at making him stop. He heard his phone begin to ring. Probably a wrong number. He felt Markus reach into his pocket, pulling the phone out, his pants sagging a little lower.

If people said your life flashed before your eyes before you died, they were lying.

[Markus Simons]

"Scream a little louder. The elves might hear you." He said saracstically, opening the phone.

"He cant come to the phone right now. Hes a little tied up." He told the person on the other line, then threw the phone down and crushed it beneath his boot. He pulled his knife from his pocket, drawing a thin line down Kurts chest, the cut getting deeper the father down he got. He smirked as the blood began to trickle down into his pants.

"You can do better than that." He said, retracing his cut, a little deeper this time.

[Zane Heian Vasser]

Zane heard it, a voice. But it wasn’t physical more so a call for help and it seemed desperate. Kurt. Zane jumped up from where he was sitting trying to locate the voice. He didn’t understand why he was answering this boy. The two had spent a night together with claims of undying love, but Zane was not so sure, maybe it was all a dream but either way there was no way he was planning to leave Kurt in the dust with whatever was happening. He grabbed a small wand good for offensive spells and charms.

Teleporting was the quickest way to get where he heard the voice. The forest. Zane looked around hearing scuffling noise and his eyes zoned in on a tied up Kurt and sick looking boy. He could tell just by looking this boy was off. Of course the situation seemed dangerous and he was unsure if he could handle this so he sent a mental message to the just about the strongest girl in school, Bexi. It was a frightening sit to see he felt so many emotions that nothing showed.

Should he charge in or…? Zane was behind a tree focusing on the ropes binding Kurt in the air. With his wand he cut them slowly levitating Kurt to the ground it was a simple spell but he knew that the other boy would know something wasn’t right. “Kurt run!” He screamed from behind the tree. This other boy may have disgusting weapons and strength but he couldn’t top Zane’s magic, the thought of getting the headmaster never crossed his mind.

“Stay away from him you narcissistic, insane, sick bitch!” He screamed whipping the wand an unseen force knocking the boy back into a tree with extreme force. It looked as if the wand had some more power than he thought. Bexi needed to get here, and fast.

[Kurt Casper]

Kurt collapsed, holding his chest. It wasnt deep, but something felt wrong.

He had laced the knife, hadnt he?

"Frick.." He mumbled, trying to sit up. Then he felt a sharp pain in his chest. And as he looked down, blood began to pool in his throat. He gasped. There was no way out of this, was there?

"Just do it.." He choked, giving up on life, love and happiness.

[Markus Simons]

"Gladly." Markus smirked, twisting the knife, then pulling it out. He stabbed him again in the stomach, twisting his knife again. A smile played on his lips as he heard the guy gasp and choke, dying slowly. If not from stabbing, but from poison.

Markus wasnt an idiot. By anymeans. And after the boy he had met in the garden, he learned these kids werent as stupid as they looked.

"Tell your kitten you love him." He smirked, pulling the knife out and stabbing him again. And as Kurt lay there, gasping for his last breath, Markus pulled the knife out, turning to Zane.

"Youre next."

["Bexi" Leggert]

Bexi jumped up, a concerned look on her face. A superhero, she had always joked about being to mask the frailty of her disability, and the hurt that it had left her. But in a way, she was superpowered, or at least would be against the worst of the people. She had nothing to lose, and couldn't exactly get hurt trying.

She teleported quickly to the scene, her eyes opening wide as she saw what was happening. "Kurt..." she breathed, seeing suddenly who it was that had been hurt, and it certainly looked bad.

She looked up at the attacker, a flame of anger in her eyes. "You fucking BASTARD!" she screamed, only with fists but it was still strong as she raced towards him in a fit of fury.

[Zane Heian Vasser]

"I don't think I made my self clear." Zane said paining himself watching Kurt be hurt like this. "I said..." He flipped his wand up a magnetic spell whipping the knife from Markus's hand and it plunged into a faraway tree. "GET AWAY FROM HIM." Fire, lots of it and focused. A pillar of flame and force forged from Zane's pure hate and anger and distress toward this sick monster. It shot straight toward Markus hopefully pushing him back. Almost positive the blow would get the boy off Kurt.

Zane ran, ran to Kurt kneeling down next to him and plunging his wand into the ground as a blue sheen surrounded the two in a bubble of protection. Zane looked down trying to check if he was ok. "Kurt...Kurt don't go yet, hand on Kurt..." He didn't quite know if tears were falling but he felt something moist. "I'm not going to let you die, no...I'll fix this." Zane hoped for a miracle what with Kurt laying stabbed in his hands and a monster on the loose. Zane couldn't focus. His hand shook violently as he tried to heal what he could but the green aura on his hand kept fading from the vigorous shaking and anger and sadness. "Kurt...don't...d..."

Zane could feel Bexi here but he was too focused on Kurt.

[Markus Simons]

"Oh? Really? I dont need a knife." He said, grabbing Bexi by the hair of the head and throwing her down. He kicked her, hard in the ribs. But something told him this girl wasnt going down without a fight. The boy was easy. She was a diffrent story.

But Markus always enjoyed a good fight.

It just might end in a few casualties.

Kurt gasped, shaking his head as he pushed Zanes hands away. His body shook as he coughed, blood pouring from his mouth as he turned to his side.

"W-when I.. said.. I thought I loved.. you.." He choked, his chest aching with the effort of his words. "I.. Now.. I know.. I do.. Love you, Zane.."

["Bexi" Leggert]

Bexi let out an angry snarl, feeling the pressure from his leg against her ribs and hearing the 'thump' they made, but she was on her feet with unnatural speed, without having to take any time to adjust herself to whatever pain she was meant to feel.

"I don't think we've met..." she said, clenching her hands into fists. "I'm SuperGirl." she said, swinging around her leg to return his blow straight to his chest with the force and accuracy of someone that had both trained and fought dirty for many years. She held back nothing, feeling nothing in her legs as they made contact. "And you never, ever mess with a superheroes friends!"

[Zane Heian Vasser]

Zane was pained watching this feeling like he was dieing slowly with Kurt. He didn’t care if his hands were pushed away. He wasn’t going to give up yet. “No…I won’t…” But he failed like all the other times the green shaking right off his hand. “Damnit!” He cursed focusing Kurt’s words just hurting him. “Kurt, I love you too…” His hands stopped as he looked in his eyes. “I have to save you I can’t just…” His breathing was shaky like the rest of him. He didn’t know if this was a lost cause, but he wanted to make these moments memorable for Kurt no matter what.

“Kurt…” He pushed his hair back. Slowly Zane kissed his red lips the tang of blood on his lips. “I love you.” His words were still shaking like the rest of him, he felt as if his heart could collapse upon itself. Sure, he knew this boy for one night, but it was a special night and even though this was a new love and something so fragile Zane needed to make this special for Kurt’s sake.

[Markus Simons]

Markus gritted his teeth. Now, he was mad. He ignored the pain, but knew it would hurt alot worse later. But for now, he had to save himself. Nevermind the boy or the girl.

"Youre corny, you know that? Every one of you is crazy." He smirked, backing up slowly. Hed much rather retreat than have his ego shattered. He had never been defeated. And he didnt want to start now.

"Ill find you. And Ill kill you. Mark my words." He said, then turned and disapeared into the trees.

---

Somehow, what Zane was saying hurt Kurt more than his life slipping slowly from him. He turned onto his back, the pain almost unbearable.

"Then.. fix me.." He mumbled, the words barely audiable. If he was going to die, at least he would die in Zanes arms. Right?

[Zane Heian Vasser]

Zane nodded. He was going to fix this, and then he was going to kill that monster. His eyes closed blocking out everything the green aura lasting his shakiness went down to a tremble. He felt cool air leaving his hands and into Kurt. Slowly, he felt himself being drained of life, more and more. This wasn't exactly a healing ritual more so life-transfer it was ten times as affective even if it meant possible death to whoever was doing it. Slowly Zane felt faint, weak, and short of breath. "At least it's to save the one I love." He said quietly peeking to see already some of the wounds closing up the bruises fading, but it wasn't the bruises fading, it was his vision. "Ungh..." Zane collapsed catching a glimpse of Kurt's condition it was good, he'd live for sure but now Zane didn't know if he would himself. "At least..." He mumbled before blacking out.

[Kurt Casper]

"Zane?" Kurt gasped, turning onto his side again to cough up the blood at the back of his throat.

"Zane?" He turned back to him, wiping the blood from his mouth and chin.

"ZANE!" He screamed, reaching for him. If this was the price of love, it wasnt worth it, wasnt worth letting Zane die for him. He sat up, growing dizzy. He shook his head, trying to fight off his blurry vision.

"Zane.. Baby.." He mumbled, pulling him up. "Zane, dont go.. Come on, baby.. S-stay with me.. I.. I love you, Zane.."

He looked over at Bexi, realizing his attempted killer was gone. "B-Bexi.. Bexi, we have to get Zane out of here.."

He picked him up, cradling the boy in his arms. "Zane.."

["Bexi" Leggert]

Bexi glared into the darkness of the shadows, about to run after him, "Yeah, you run you COWARD!" she called back to him. For a moment she was getting a twisted sense of pleasure from this. So this must have been what it was like when the superhero beat the bad guys... but at what cost....?

She turned back around, suddenly remembering what had caused her fury in the first place. "Oh, jeez..." she recalled, running back to their sides, staring down at them both, not sure quite what was happening but realising she was the strongest of them all. She helped catch the boy just as he blacked out, looking at Kurt with a questioning look. "What the frick happened here, mate?!" she demanded.
