Chapter Text
“You, you did what?” I hesitated, that sick fuck wasn’t planning to let her go. It was either serving him or death.
“(Chuckling) Did you really think I would just let you go, you stupid dyke! I guess now you won’t be able to scissor the spaz now!(psychotic laughing)” Clive provoked, quickly losing his sanity.
(Laughing)
What caught me off guard, was that out of nowhere Lexi was laughing.
“(crying bloody murder)” She cried while scratching her face and ripping her hair out. This must be the effects of mercury poisoning.
I have never experienced something so horrifying. My Best friend is on the floor with her shirt and pants ripped off, almost being raped. Also my other friend is dying while coughing out blood.
“Lexi, lexi please!” Perri begged while running to her dying girlfriend.
“(Coughing blood) Run. Run away, now!”
“I can’t leave you, not like this.” Perri bawled, poor thing.
“Look on the bright side, at least you’re still a virgin. Lexi chose this path, my sweet gremlin. It was either I had my way with you, or she welcomes death.” He failed to comfort, patting her on the head. I promise you buddy, I will make him pay.
Before Perri could say her final goodbyes, Lexi reached into her jacket. She pulled out a pen gun and shot Clive in the bag.
(Bang)
“(screaming) Holly sweet fuck! (screaming)” Clive shouted in agony.
“Run! Now!” Lexi demanded, while shouting Clive’s guards in the head.
So I dashed to Perri and picked her up. Piggyback style. I’m surprised that the remaining bikers are not fighting back, their leader just got shot in the junk. They probably have more respect for Lexi than her.
“You! Stupid cunt! You shot me in the nut, I will end you!” The piece of shit cursed, end this Lexi.
“This is for Perri, Spinel,(coughing) and the other girls' lives you ruined! One way or another, I’m dragging you down to hell with me!” Lexi promised, about to shoot him in the head.
But at last, fate is a cruel mistress. When she pulled the trigger, she realized she’s out of bullets.
“(laughing) Looks like the junkie is out off-” He was interrupted by Lexi when she bashed his face with the grip of her gun.
“Like I said (coughing) you fucking pig! One way or another, I’m taking you to the fiery pits of hell!” She said, furiously beating clive to death.
It’s time to get out of this hell hole. I carried Perri and ran off the property, I must find help fast.
I managed to get Perri as far from the warehouse. The problem is that we're in the middle of nowhere, so it’s going to be difficult getting help. So we stopped on the side of a lifeless highway and put Perri down.
“(panting) What the fuck just happened?” I broke the silence
“(sniffling) Spinel.” She wept, poor thing has been through so much
“Please don’t worry Perri, here take my jacket.” I gave my jacket to Perri, just to cover her up.
Once she put on the jacket, she looked down at the floor and whimpered.
“(Crying) Why would he do that? I know what kind of man he is but why did he do that to me? It’s my fault that Lexi is dead.” Perri started to bawl her eyes out.
“Perri, please don't cry. You’ve done nothing wrong, sweetie. I promise you that pig will get what’s coming to him! Maybe she killed him already. No matter what, I promise he will never touch you again.” I comfort my little buddy, starting to cry as well.
“Spinel, stop it! Stop crying!” She begged while latching onto me.
“I should have never let him violate you, I was nothing but a coward. I shouldn’t have done more, I could have saved Lexi. I could have saved you.” I blubbered, if I hadn't provoked him under the bridge that day. None of this would have happened.
“I’m just glad he didn’t hurt you Spinel, people like him don’t deserve to love. They don’t know what it is, they just care about what they get out of it. Thanks to him my sweetheart could be dead.”
“Don’t say that Perri, we will find Lexi.”
Not long ago, we were picked up by a passing car and taken to the hospital. The doctor already called my Grandma and Brooklyn. I can’t imagine what she is feeling now, her own daughter has been sexually assaulted by the most powerful man in the city. Not to mention Pearl, she lost her daughter.
“Hello Ms. Valentine, you’re Grandmother had just arrived.” The doctor was reassured.
“Spinel! Oh god sweetie what happened?” Grandma burst in with a horrified look, I can tell she rushed here. Her clothes looked like that just got out of the hamper.
“(crying) Clive. (crying) What happened to Lexi, what happened to Perri. It’s all his fault!” I cried out loudly, the whole hospital could hear me.
“I’m sorry darling, I’m so sorry I wasn’t there for you! That little shit will pay for all the damage he’s done!”
After the doctor looked at me, to see if I’m find to leave, I made my way to Perri’s room. But I hid behind the door because I heard one of the doctors talking to Brooklyn, with Pearl right beside her.
“Ms. Fitzgerald, the nurse has already used the rape kit to gather evidence. It has now been sent to the authorities. From what we collected, there appears to be no sign that she had intercourse with the attacker. Although we found a hand-shaped bruise around her neck, she was likely choked. There has also been evidence that the attacker had touched her privates, inserting his fingers inside of her. Lastly, we found a trace of DNA evidence inside of her mouth. We tested the saliva and it matches with a Mr. Clifford Eastwood.”
‘Oh my god, oh my god(Crying)” Brooklyn broke down. This is every parent's worst nightmare.
“He won’t get away with this Brook, I won’t let him.” Pearl promised to her heartbroken lover.
“I’ll be right back.” The doctor excused himself, walking right passed me.
I wanted to help Perri, so I walked in the room.
“Brooklyn, I’m so-” I was about to apologize before she interrupted me by giving me a hug.
“It’s not your fault Spinel, not yours and not Lexi’s. I couldn't ask for a better friend for my little girl.”
“Any sign of Lexi?”
“No, she’s still missing. I hope I find her, she has so much to look forward to.” Pearl answered, trying to be strong for Brook.
After a lot of crying, I went to one of the many dippin dots vending machines. But before I could put in my coins, a group of paramedics barged in. What they were helping, was no other than Clive. They must have found him, but where’s Lexi. He has bruises and blood all over him, he’s on the verge of death.
“We’re losing him, get a room ready!” A paramedic called out, trying to save that piece of shits life.
“You. You fucking animal!” I raged, about to kill him myself but was stopped by the security. But that didn’t stop me from screaming.
“I hope you die and rot in hell you piece of shit! You don’t get away from what you did to my friends!” I cursed his wicked soul.
It was about to get dark, everyone left except me. I just stood beside Perri.
“Spinel.” Perri looked wearily, finally she’s awake.
“Are you getting better, bud?”
“Spinel, I want to find Lexi.’
She can’t be serious, she needs to rest. Although I don’t blame her, I worried about her too.
“What do you mean, where are we supposed to look?”
“Let’s go back to the warehouse.”
“Some bikers could be there, even Clive.” I’m not going to tell her that her attacker is only a few rooms away from her.
“Please, Spinel. I need to know what happened.” She begged, no matter how stupid this plan is. I can’t say no.
“Okay, let’s go.” I finally agreed, where are you Lexi.
It was a long bus ride to the warehouse, I’m surprised we went out of the hospital. I’m more surprised that the bus driver didn’t find two kids both wearing hospital gowns suspicious.
We finally made our way to the warehouse. I'm surprised that there are no motorcycles or vehicles around the old building. But everything changed when we got inside.
No one was in the building, all the cargo and machinery were gone. The building was empty. Except, the corpse of my dearest friend in a puddle of blood.
“Lexi. Lexi!” Perri cried out, running to the remains of her sweetheart
This has to be a dream, she can’t be dead. When I walked up to her body, blood was all over her face. Probably when she was throwing up. There were no bullet wounds, but she does have a hand-shaped bruise around her neck. Clive must have gotten the upper hand and strangled her to death. I couldn’t imagine a more painful way to die. I didn’t say anything, I just looked at Perri while she’s crying over the body. I didn’t know what to say, I was so shocked. Lexi was only 17, she had her whole life ahead of her, and that bastard took it all away. But sadly it wasn’t a dream or a nightmare, Lexi is dead.
It’s been three days since Lexi died. The police later found Perri and I in the warehouse, and Pearl was devastated that she’s dead. I haven't left my room since then, I couldn’t bear to even go to her funeral. Momma didn’t want to bother me, so she put my food at the door. But I never ate it. They got so worried, that they took me to the doctor, they said that I’ve lost weight from starving myself for three days. I didn’t want to do anything, I just wanted to be in the dark.
I didn’t know what else to do, so I went on my phone. I just noticed that I had a missed voicemail from three hours ago. It was from Steven, I might as well play it.
“Spinel, Spinel you gotta help me. It’s Connie, She’s been kidnapped. I don’t know who but he was wearing a black and red kitsune mask. I saw him drag her out of her house. Please Spinel you need to help me. I saw them go to the abandoned library in the countryside. Please Spinel, I need you!”
Are you fucking kidding me, he’s asking for help after all the shit he’s done. First he avoids me, kisses Connie and now he’s asking for help. I should just let that bitch die, but I’m bored as hell. So I might as well get out of the house.
I can’t believe I’m doing this, it takes half an hour to get there. I hope I at least see her in pain. It’s a shame that it went out of business, I was a big and beautiful library. I remember Perri would take me here just to read, but that was a long time ago.
The door was barricaded so I entered through a broken window. Once inside, I heard screaming. It sounded like Connie. The noise sounded like it was coming from the basement, where the adult books were located. I main my way down, trying not to blow my cover. When I reached the bottom of the stairs. Where I saw Connie and the masked figure. She had bruises all over her body, one of her hands is attached to a nail ripper. There was blood all over the table, and three ripped out fingernails as well. But that wasn’t all. There was also a taser, a spoon, a pair of clippers and a kitchen knife. The captor was wearing the exact kitsune mask on the news, when they reported the death of Clive's friends. He was also wearing a suit and waving around a AMT Hardballer pistol. The exact pistol that Steven had. I hid behind one of the book shelfs, seeing how this will play along.
“(screaming)” Connie cried bloody murder when she ripped out another fingernail. Torture is what she deserves
“Please, I want to go home!” She begged
“It told you that you can go after you ripped out five fingernails.” The captor spoke, sounding just like bane from The Dark Knight Rises. He probably has a speaker in his mask, to disguise his voice.
“Please, let me go!”
“I don’t know why you’re complaining, you only have one more to pull out. You’re probably wondering why only five nails, the reason being. Is that each finger resembles a person. There’s you, your boyfriend Clive, and his three friends. Who are now dead at my hands.”
I can’t believe it, this guy is the killer. What is his motive? Why is he doing this?
“Helllllllllp!”
“Scream all you want Ms. Maheswaran, no one can hear you. You probably should have seen this coming. Your conscience isn’t as clean as you think it is. You have done a lot of sinful deeds, mostly with Mr. Eastwood. Tell me Ms. Maheswaran, are you aware of who Clive really is?”
“(panting) I know, I know!”
“Really, and yet you still hangout with him. He was responsible for the raping of five high school students, the attempted rape of Spinel Valentine, and only three days ago he molested Perri Fitzgerald and killed Lexi Joel.”
How the hell does he know all of that? Is he spying on me or something? \
“You can’t be serious!”
“I am Connie, you know about this man and yet you still keep him company. Is it because you lost your true love Steven Universe, and you are just desperate? Or is it something else?”
“That's none of your goddamn business, you fucking psycho!”
“(Psychotic laughing) You always had a big mouth Connie, now pull it out or I’ll cut that finger off.” The captor threatened, I can’t tell if he’s a hero or a murderer.
“Why are you doing this? I don’t even know you!”
Stop screaming Connie, Jesus. She is the worst hostage in the whole world.
“I have two reasons, my sweet Connie. You also know me better than you think.”
While the crazy bastard is thinking about what he’s going to say. He finally speaks.
“Reason number one, you found something you weren't supposed to see.” He spoke while holding up a black notebook, While the words Death Note on the cover.
“It’s just a book, what’s so special about it!”
“Oh you naïve bitch, it’s not just a notebook. It’s a notebook that can kill people. With this, I murdered 3,040 sex offenders and that’s only in ten days. 30% of them were female and the rest were male. That’s right, I don’t just target men. Because anyone can be a sick fuck! There was one woman who was a teacher, she was caught touching the genitals of her eight year old male student. Now she’s in hell where she belongs. I also was the one who murderer the film producer Harvey Fogel, and those three teenage boys who attempted to rape Spinel Valentine. So the short answer is, I’m Kira.”
How does he know all of this? There can’t be a book that kills people.
“You're insane, you’re a stalker, a psychopath, a-” Connie fumed but was interrupted when Kira smacked her with his gun.
“You just can’t help yourself Connie. Now since you haven’t ripped off the final nail. You leave me no choice but to cut off your pinkie.” Kira said while getting the clippers, cutting off Connie's pinkie finger.
“Ahh, fuck my finger (screaming)”
“I guess I should let you go now, but before I do. I’m going to give my final reason. I am doing all of this because-”
Kira stopped his sentence, and is now taking off his mask. Revealing his face.
“You. Hurt. My. Bun-Bun!” Steven accused, while his eyes are pink with white diamond pupils and bleeding from the eyes.
