Lukz soars over Kevin, thrashing his mallet downwards,
"Kevin! DUCK!!" Lukz roars, but he stays stunned, staring at Needles unmistakable features. His eyes peel back in desperation, hands clench onto the ground as the butchered man perches above him, with its blade only centimetres away from his neck. "MOVE!!", Lukz screams at the top of his voice! Kevin instantly darts to his side, *SMASH!* Lukz's hammer clatters Needles blade away, narrowly scratching Kevin's shoulder! He charges forwards, swiping left and right, forcing Needle back! The beast blocks an almighty blow from above, then batters another away from its huge, gangly legs! "Kevin, RUN FOR THE GATE!!" Lukz barks out! Kevin stays nestled upon the mound, as he timidly rips a pistol from his hip.
*BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG!* Bullets soar towards the beast! Lukz immediately pulls away, letting each bullet penetrate Needles thick white skin suit.
"DON!!" Kevin cries out. Each bullet lands a perfect hit through the head and chest of Needles body, but seeps straight through it, not leaving a single mark!
The beast immediately turns towards Don, standing poised within the entrance gate's opening.
"Leave my boys alone!" He grunts, proudly!
*BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, click, click, click*. Kevin sprays a whole magazine into the beast! "DON! NOOO!" He bawls out, as each wound immediately absorbs back up, just as if he was shooting into thin air. Needle twists his head towards Kevin, pulling a menacing smile amongst its tethered lips. Suddenly, it flashes towards the gate, penetrating its blade through Dons heart, slowly lifting him off the floor.
*Cough*, Don spirts blood from his mouth, drooling it through his thick ginger beard.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Lukz and Kevin both screech in torment! Blood spews into the air, as Needle shoves his blade deeper into Don's chest, glimpsing a sign of defeat while droplets shimmer from the moons delicate haze, mirroring his limp body as it plummets to a soiled forest bed. His body shudders as it crashes to the ground, causing more blood to ooze from his mouth.
Kevin quickly releases his magazine then slides in another, completely oblivious to his ineffective shots. Needle kneels towards Don, staring deep into his crystal brown eyes.
Don smiles, firmly grabbing Needles collar, "Now you're, going to die!"
Needles creepy grin falls flat, causing them both to look upon each other's dying souls.
Kevin opens fire, *BANG, BANG…*, Needle un-freezes, rapidly flies towards him, both bullets directly penetrate his fused face, but again, absorb and glide straight through its ghostly skin as Needle launches its blade towards him!
"AHHHHHH!", Kevin screams in pure desperation, continuously pulling his trigger. Enraged with anger he grits his teeth, staring his bulbous, luminous green eyes directly into Needles blacked out soul!
*Shhhhing*.
Needle completely soars past him, Kevin falls to his knees, grabbing his stomach. He quickly peels his hands away to see no wound at all! A slight confused smile beams across his face when,
*THUD!* A humongous blacked out shape lands right beside him, Kevin turns to see Lukz poised in a kill position, holding a beautiful double-edged katana sword, crafted from jewel steel, with a delicate ripple effect inscription through its middle, covered in a giant black smear. Lukz grasps onto the gigantic sword by which seems to be the old taped handle of his baseball bat, with his sledgehammer head still attached to its base. Kevin quickly flips his gaze back around, noticing the immense demon frozen with one arm stretched out in front of it, but no blade attached! He quickly looks back at the floor, spotting Needles weapon lying motionless! Lukz looks down at Kevin, raising out his hand, pulling him back to his feet.
"Call Darcie and keep Don alive until she gets here!" He says, throwing him away. He stumbles forwards, then quickly dashes over to him. Lukz adverts his gaze back towards a one bladed Needle, "Let's see how this big bitch likes to be chopped into little pieces!", He gloats, grinning within his mask, "MEET MARQ THREE!" he blurts out, bolting towards him.
Kevin charges over to Don who lays static on the cold damp floor.
Needle slowly turns around, with its arm dripping a thick black ash,
Lukz pinpoints his blade directly at Needles face, it flinches sideways, but Lukz flips his sword around, battering Needle to the floor with his sledgehammer attachment.
"Now were even, so bring it on!" Lukz rages, raising his giant weapon next to his ear, posing in a mantis like stance.
Darkness settles in, casting all potential light into shadows, turning the forest canopies into a black roofed arena. Lukz, narrows his vision solely on Needles blood smeared torso, using it as a target. A drop in the breeze settles, then Lukz mutters,
"Fight."
They both blitz towards one another, Lukz bounds left and right, alternating his direction of attack, Needle raises its blade, sweeping it along the ground. Lukz side flips onto it, running up Needles arm, he spins his bat around, clattering Needles face, forcing him back to the ground! Lukz flips over the top of Needles tumbling body, rolling out of his jump. The beast topples like a falling tree. *SMAAASH!* it flumps down! Lukz raises back to his feet, flicking his Katana sideways, then charges back towards a quivering giant! He launches himself in the air, double side flips, blade locked into his hip, thrashing it down!
*Ting.* Needle shoves its blade across Lukz's, stopping it millimetres away from its neck. Lukz rips his sword back, partly slicing its arm! His body starts to shudder, face fills with torment, his scars start to flicker with a static black blaze, he immediately flings his blade back around, pulverizing it down again and again, splicing Needles arm, hacking centimetre by centimetre away,
"HOW DARE YOU HURT MY FAMILY!", He wails at the top of his voice, when out of nowhere, Needle thumps him away with his decapitated stump, throwing him to his knees.
Lukz rolls through a patch of leaves, until snapping a fierce glare back around, "Why won't you just die!" He screams!!
Needle limps back to his feet, towering over Lukz. They both lock in face to face, Lukz pulses with a black haze as his rage grows, more light seeps through his skin, calling like sirens of war.
Kevin rushes over to Don, sliding to his knees then grabbing him tight,
"Don't worry mate, you're going to be okay!" He says, weeping. Flipping out his phone, rapidly searching for Darcie's number,
*Ring ring, ring ring. ring ring, ring ring.*
"Shit, voicemail!" He blurts out, while DC's voice natters in the background, *beep.*
"Darcie! You need to get to Wilverly Plain animal testing facility! Don is dyeing!!" He yelps out, hanging up the phone. Don's eyes peek slightly open, washed in fear when he suddenly speaks in his deep wispy tone, "They���re all dead."
Kevin stares back, confused, when he notices Don struggling to lift his arm and point his finger. He swiftly turns around to see an array of executed corpses, scattered across the plain. Soaking its earth with blood and guts as they still hold their final expressions.
"They're all dead?" Kevin repeats. "How, how are they all dead! They all had weapons; they all knew how to shoot!" Kevin rambles.
Don weekly shakes his head, "The bullets had no effect, they were all absorbed, just like yours and mine!"
Kevin's eyes flash open as he pictures his doing the same. "I thought, It was just me… I thought.. I just missed!" he replies, stunned.
Don gently shakes his head, *Cough. Cough.* "We can't kill them. Only Lukz can?!" he mutters, gasping for air.
"Woh, woh, you mean all this time, you knew? And you still let me go in there with him!", Kevin replies, frustrated!
Don shakes his head, "I had an inkling when you said about Terry. I know how good a shot you are. You never miss. So, when you said you had a direct hit, but nothing happened, I pieced it together. That's why I shot that thing, to stupidly prove my theory right."
Kevin gazes into the woods, fearful for Lukz. When Don suddenly grabs his chest in agony. "AHHHH!" he cries.
"DON!" Kevin shouts back.
"Kevin." Don says softly.
"Yes?" He replies, pulling him closer.
"I need to thank you and Lukus, ehhh, for letting me be by your side all these years."
"No, don't you dare give up!" Kevin screams back!
"Just Listen", Don says calmly, grabbing Kevin's face. "The fire was an accident, never believe otherwise."
"I know it was, but no one believed us!" Kevin bawls out.
"Shhh, I did. I know you and Lukz had it rough on the streets growing up, but I could not be prouder to see what great men you have become."
"Don, please." Kevin replies as tears stream down his delicate cheeks.
"Every day I watched over you two, I always made sure you were never too far from someone who loved you."
"But Don.", Kevin butts in. Don grabs his hand, squeezing it tight.
"Never forget what made you who you are. You two are the best kids I could have wished were my own! I'm so sorry for never taking you into my home! I regret it every day as I know you use to only get in trouble, just so you could spend a night somewhere warm."
"Don, stop! Me and Lukz were never accepted for what happened, no one wanted us! We couldn't have let you carry that burden as well! You would have got fired, or worse, got bullied out your job!"
Don rapidly shakes his head, cowering his face, "I did want you, I should have…"
His tired eyes gently close, letting out one last breath of relief.
"Don, DON!!" Kevin howls into his statues face, shaking his limp body.
"NOOOOOOO!" Kevin bellows out!
"You did take care of us! Even when our own dad walked out! You were there!! You were always there!!" Kevin bursts into tears! Gripping Don tighter, lifting his body off the ground, when he suddenly screams at the top of his voice! "LUKZ, IT KILLED HIM!! IT KILLED DON!!! DESTROY THAT SON OF A BITCH!!!!"
