day 42/43

tyler groaned, shutting the door to his car and throwing the limp body over his shoulder. he walked through his garage to the door to his house and carried her inside.

"damn, bitch is heavy." tyler mumbled to himself. he opened up the basement and started walking down.

"i'm back." tyler said.

"what'd you get this time?" josh asked.

"girl." tyler said, he set his book down and watched as tyler threw her body down.

"she's drugged?" josh asked.

"yeap." tyler nodded with his hands on his hips. "she should wake up any time."

"well, you're not the best at that." josh said.

"he was huge he didn't take the drug like a normal sized person would." tyler said. he plopped down on the mattress next to him.

"it was terrifying." josh said, shuddering at the thought of that day. his head was almost healed up, but was gonna scar. his lip was healed, and there was still some yellow bruising around his eye.

"it won't happen again." tyler smiled, turning a looking at josh at the same time he looked at him.

josh blushed and turned away.

"she's movin." tyler pointed.  josh nodded, fear starting to set in.

"sweet." tyler said, standing up and jogging over to his corner.

he put on his infamous white shirt, and headed back to josh.

"joshua, what weapon should we use today?" tyler asked, squatting down to his level.

"i uh i don't i don't know." josh stuttered out, confused and scared.

"cmon, knife, hammer, wire, hands, you pick." tyler said. josh cowered down as the dark returned to tyler's eyes.

"i guess, i guess the uh the knife?" josh said, tears starting to prick at his eyes.

"hmmm, are you sure? pick one more." tyler said, turning and looking at her.

"the hammer." josh mumbled.

tyler nodded and went to grab the two items.  he returned to josh and squatted next to him, facing towards the muttering girl.

"you want a choice?" tyler asked, turning and look at him. he smiled.

"i guess." josh shrugged, avoiding eye contact.

"you can tell me what to do to her," tyler leaned in right next to his ear. "or, you can do it yourself."

"or, i'll do it to you." he whispered.

joshs heart started pounding. he sat and stared at her.

"cmon, she's waking up." tyler said.

"y-you do it." josh finally muttered out. he looked down shamefully from the fact that he was considering the second option.

"alright alright." tyler smirked. "what first?"

tyler walked over to the girl and stood above her. he started down and her and smiled. she started screaming as best she could with the gag around her mouth.

"what first joshua?" tyler asked again, voice slightly raised.

"i don't i don't know!" josh cried a little. he was embarrassed, and ashamed.

"i need an answer." tyler almost growled.

"the the knife the knife." josh cried. "just slit her throat."

the girl screamed louder when she heard josh say that.

"nahhh that's a little too boring. we gotta make it last." tyler said. he grabbed the sledge hammer and raised an eyebrow at josh.

"t-the kn-knees." joshs breathing quickened.

"ooo now that's a good idea." tyler smirked. "sorry, but what he says goes." he said to the girl.

he pulled back and lifted the hammer up, bringing it down directly on her kneecap.

she let out an ear piercing scream, as the sound of her bones being shattered mixed with the hammer connecting with the ground below her.

josh gasped, leaning over and gagging a bit.

"good choice!" tyler yelled over the sound of her screaming. "next?"

"the the other o-one." josh cried. it was so loud in there. he couldn't see straight.

"that only makes sense." tyler shrugged, smirking and wasting no time repeating his actions on the other leg.

she screamed again, but then faded into moans and groans as the pain was too much for her.

"look at you." tyler smiled, coming up to josh and getting on eye level with him. "you did that." he whispered, blood speckling his face.

he just nodded, looking tyler in the eyes.

"what do you want me to do next?" tyler said quietly.

"the knife." josh said, almost sounding like a question.

"yeah?" tyler said. "what do you want me to do with it?"

"i don't know." josh whimpered.

"she's yours joshua. why don't we make it official?" tyler said.  josh was paralyzed.

josh didn't know what tyler was going to do, but figured might as well go along with it.

tyler stepped over the girl and leaned down. he grabbed the front of her shirt, and ripped it open and off.

josh watching as he brought the knife down to her stomach. she was still moaning in pain, but was too paralyzed in it to try and move. she faded in and out of consciousness.

he looked at tyler's face, and noticed he was biting his lip in the same way he did when he was working.

"there we go." tyler stepped back and smiled.

josh sat up and looked at what he had done.

j o s h u a s

was carved into her stomach. it was bloody and messy but he could still make it out.

"how does it make you feel?" tyler asked, back in his same position as earlier with the knife still in hand. he held it up to joshs throat.

josh stared into tyler's eyes. he felt the rising in his chest.

"powerful." josh said. "she's still alive."

tyler stared into joshs eyes for a bit, before standing up and immediately turning to plunge the knife into her chest. she gurgled and sputtered a little before going limp. tyler stared into her eyes.

"you did that." tyler smirked leaning into him again.

josh nodded again.

"what's her name?" tyler asked.

"she doesn't have one." josh replied.

"good boy." tyler whispered.

"what do we do now?" josh mumbled breathlessly.

"you get to sleep in my bed again after that." tyler said.

"really?" josh asked. it pays off to make tyler happy.

"yeah." tyler nodded.

"can i also have a pb and j?" josh asked.

"sure." tyler nodded.

josh smiled, but it quickly faded away when he got a sudden snap back to reality.

he felt disgusted with himself.

tyler noticed his breathing was picking up. he knew that he was processing what exactly just happened in front of him. tyler chuckled a bit.

"that feeling will go away." tyler said. "you'll only feel the good parts." tyler whispered in his ear, before sitting up.

"alrighty. pb and j?" tyler asked cheerfully as he stood up. he slipped his bloody shirt off and threw it somewhere.

josh laid on the mattress and tried to process what exactly he was feeling.

"yeah." he nodded, standing up and following tyler.  "yeah."
