Sufferings

Hunnie Inzotta













My feet move down the stairs of the somewhat slippery concrete. My ears picked up on clanking from the armor that the guards wore, and I hurriedly disappeared through the doors after using a quick spell to unlock them. I didn’t want anyone stopping my quick hello to Draconius just yet.



It was dark down here and the lights were flickering on and off around the corner to the cells.







The scent down here wasn’t bad as before. The air actually felt a bit cooler, but it was dead silent. I was surprised Draconius hasn’t even said a word to me in our link yet. After stepping down the last clammy step, I turned the corner and my eyes immediately caught a spiky electric wire running across the walls and into Draconius’s cell. I walked down the middle of the walkway while holding my dress, examining the outside of his newly constructed cell and a cold draft hits my legs.







I whisper away a light spell, shining my finger brightly into the air. The cell lights up dimly, a small door catches my eyes to the very far corner of Draconius’s cell. It had steel bars running across the doors that seemed to be smashed right down the middle.







Then my eyes wandered to the other corner of the cell, looking for Draconius finally.





A glint of horror flashes in my eyes and I scream horrifyingly. I scream so loud my bladder comes exploding out all over my legs and my white light on my finger goes out. I cried and cried, and cried some more, screaming bloody murder until I was leaning over and taking steps back.





“NOOOOOOO!!!!!” I cried tremendously, not understanding what it was I thought I saw. It can’t be!







Why?





Who has done this!







My hands press agasint the dungeon floors, picking up dirt and leaves as I try to stand to my feet in the darkness.





My heart starts to race in my chest and my breathing becomes heavy when a woman’s voice is heard scoffing.







“HUNNIE!”





I hear Bahm’s voice and the lights to the dungeons all turn on. I turn quickly, looking into the cell and screaming again. “NNNOOOOOOOO!!!! WHHHYYYYY!!!!” I throw my body down to my knees, tears flowing from my eyes, but I’m caught in the hands of Bahm and Leolo.





“Baby! What is it?

What’s the matter?

Is the babies coming?” Kris and Bahm examines my body in a rush within their sleepy state. I shake my head no and Bahm grabs me into his arms.





A huge gasp is heard from Kris when he turns around as Bahm holds me tightly to his chest. Then I hear Leolo gasp and that’s when Bahm turns around. I hold onto his shirt, not wanting to look at the scene again and to not be left alone.





“O-O-Oh..my..” Bahm slowly walks away from me and runs his hands through is hair.



He seemed shocked, not being able to even talk and he begins choking up. He turns around to look at me with red eyes and mouth wide open. Leolo comes to my side, rubbing my shoulders and Kris takes over, embracing me in a hug and shielding me from the body of Draconius.







“WHAT DID YOUUUUU DOOOO!!!!” Bahm roars a mighty roar, frightening me in Kris’s arms. He looks back quickly at the cell and we all see Cyn walking casually out of the small room to the corner with the smashed steels running across the door.







She has her hands tied up behind her back and goes into a full drunken fit of laughter. Blood coated her whole face and clothes, that looked like just a bra as her whole body was covered in blood as well.





“CYNNNNNN!!!

WHYYYYY!!!!”



Bahm drops to his knees and my eyes travelled again to the enormous, mangled and lifeless body of Draconius that was barely even recognizable anymore. My heart was broken. I couldn’t breathe. I felt crushed and my head was pounding from crying so hard.







How could the heavens allow this to happen to him!





“Oh please!!! He ASKED me to die!” Cyn roars back at Bahm who viciously stands up and walks to the other end outside the cell and more closer to her direction.







There was no way Draconius asked her to kill him...there was no way!





“WHY CYN!...

WHY?

WHY!!?”





Bahm becomes hysterical, kicking the cell bars and ignoring the electricity that ignited throughout his body. I feel the arms of Kris tightening around me. Looking to her evil face, she has a smirk that I wished I could permanently erase. I cried in Kris’s arms and Bahm tells him to get me out of here.





I protest, and Cyn only laughs even more from inside the cell. I really wanted to kill her! She’s taken so much away from me already!



“He will be reincarnated you fool!”



“WHO CARES CYN! HE WAS MY FRIEND!!!”





“WHAT ABOUT ANNA!!!!”





“I WAS HUNGRY YOU IMBECILE! HE WASN’T YOUR FRIEND EITHER, YOU STUPID FUCK!”







My body shakes terribly from listening to Cyn and Bahm go back and fourth. No matter what, Draconius didn’t deserve to die the way she killed him. I gag and holler again when I find his eye through the mangled body of his...it was open.





Oh my dear Draconius. She must’ve ate him alive!!! I start to become nauseous the more I thought about it. My body shook with feelings I’ve never felt before. I felt like I could sense how his death felt and my body begins to ache suddenly, but quickly diminishes. I go to rest on the floor again, but Kris only holds me up onto my feet.







Why does she get to live!





First she bewitches Bahm into not even being able to recognize his own mate and now she lashes out in insidious ways, trying to hurt us all! She thought this whole thing was alright! She was so unfazed by her actions I’ve never felt more angry in my life!





How can she be this evil!

DRACONIUS WAS MY FRIEND!





“Y-YOU BITCH!” I shove Kris aside and lift my hand above my hand, shooting a dark beam of light through the cell. The impact causes me to almost fly backwards, but Kris and Leolo’s hands are felt around me.





Hands lift me up, those of Leolo’s and I hug even him, crying miserably.





“THAT BITCH! I”LL KILL HER!” I hear Cyn cry in pain I look up. Have I actually gotten her!





My eyes capture Cyn on the ground, bleeding profusely from a whole in her leg. Her flesh around her knees was barely connected to her thighs and it dangles. Bahm breaks the cell bars effortlessly, making this way inside towards Cynthia.





“Y-You...CAN’T...KILL ME!” She cries in a pained voice as Bahm approaches her. He pierces his spine with his nails and Cyn yells a horrid scream.





“YOUUUU CANNNN’TTT! THEYY WILL GO TO WARRR!”







She cries, laying on the concrete with her hands still behind her back and her body jerking in place. Bahm stops his motion from reaching for his sword and freezes.





“BAHM! KILL HER!!” I happen to yell and cry. Kris attempts to pull me from Leolo’s arm, but I wanted to go running into the cells myself. Kris pulls me from behind when I managed to get loose and I watch as Bahm takes his sword and chops of the dead leg of Cyn. She screams in pain and he only walks away from her. His eyes glossy and stern.





“Bahm.. why won’t you kill her!” Kris lifts me bridal style as I stare at Bahm for an answer.







“She’s caused everyone a lot of suffering Hunnie. Now she can finally suffer herself."
