"What the fuck does this mean then?" Vale paces around the empty room with a chair and table in the middle, Danny sat on the plastic chair as his hands are tied behind his back and attached to the legs. His face is all beat up and covered with bruises and cuts, a stuffed-up ball of cloth stuck in his mouth. "Did you see that?" Daisy and Reymi are standing on opposite sides of the room, their backs against the corner of the cold concrete walls.
A light hangs above them, swinging back and forth as the slightly green hue of the expired bulb was their only light source.
Danny's slowly start to open, his bloodied eyelids pushed against his exhaustion and pushed themselves open. Danny tries to wiggle his hands but they're locked tightly. He looks down and sees that his pants and white shirt is covered with blood and water. He turns back up and Vale is staring at Danny with a disappointed look on his face. He tries to speak but realizes there's a wet cloth in his mouth, wrapped around his neck, not allowing him to converse.
"And he's woken up." Vale sighs as he slams his fist onto the metal table. He reaches for the seat by reaching for it between his legs and he takes a seat, resting his back on the rest of the chair. He taps the plastic table with his index finger as the sounds of his fingers fill the empty room.
Daisy stands in the corner of the room, not making a single sound. Reymi has his right hand over his left elbow, turning away slightly as if he felt guilty. "Let's get this over with." Vale sighs as he pushes the chair closer towards the table, closing the distance between him and Danny. He tries to speak but the words wouldn't come out of his mouth like he too had a gag in his mouth. "Why?"
"Why what?" Danny spits the gag out of his mouth, pushing it with his tongue, he pressed it against the back of his teeth and pushed it out, falling to his neck. "Why did I beat that fuckers ass?"
"Sure, that can be the first question," Vale says sarcastically.
"Because I could, and it felt good," Danny smirks with a sinister tone. "I've never felt any better. In fact, I feel amazing right now!" Danny laughs.
"What about after this?!" Vale smashes his hand onto the table and jolts himself upward, balling his hand into a fist, aimed straight at Danny's face.
"Aeugh!" Danny coughs up blood as Vale's tough knuckles ripped through his soft supple skin. The bone on the edge of his fingers crushed his soft gums, pushing his teeth out of their place. Danny's blood lined the wall as he nearly falls over, keeping his balance by placing his foot firmly on the ground.
A tooth shoots out of his mouth and lands on the ground in a pool of blood. It rolls around before knocking against the leg of the table, stopping it.
"You gonna pay for my tooth?" Danny says cockily.
"With another!" Vale uses his left hand and delivers the same punch to Danny, this time his nose crumpled like a piece of water under Vale's heavy fists.
His hand dwarfed his face, creating a big black bruise that plastered across his face. Another trail of blood flew out of his mouth and splattered on the walls, painting them red.
"That's enough." Daisy tries to intervene but Vale turns around sharply, looking at her with fire in his eyes.
"He disrespected Atsel." Vale towers over Daisy and looks down on her, his face barely centimetres away from her face. "He used Atsel's Omnishell and made a fucking joke of it. He used Alice." Vale cracks his finger by pressing on his knuckles, smearing Danny's blood over his fingertips.
"C'mon, the kid didn't know." Reymi tries to help but instead makes the situation worse. He realises this and decides to shut up before he escalates the situation even more.
"That's right!" Vale suddenly turns and faces away from Daisy, bringing his attention back to Danny. "You died, didn't you?" Vale now has a smirk on his face as he twirls his fingers around in the air, walking with a pep in his step. He walked around the room as if he was joyous, filled with a rush of excitement. "But you're still here, so you didn't die!" Vale states the blatant. "Which means, JK must've had something to do with this!" Vale turns and looks at Danny. "Right?" Vale asks rhetorically.
Danny doesn't say anything, instead keeping his mouth shut. "Right." Vale slams his hands onto the table, getting close to Danny's face. "Tell me I'm right," Vale whispers into Danny's ear.
"You're fucking right!" Danny spits blood straight into Vale's eyes, painting them red. He knees the table as he had undone the rope that was holding his ankles to the legs of the chair, freeing his leg.
The table slams into Vale's chest, causing him to spit out his saliva and his eyes to roll back from pain as the edge of the table hit a sensitive spot in his groin area. "The balls are always a great place to hit!" Danny's hands were suddenly free like they weren't being tied to the chair at all.
He turns around and sees a green goo that was coating his hands and chair. It had eaten through the plastic and the rope but not his skin, freeing Danny of his constraints.
"CNC!" Vale tries to call out for CNC but Danny stood up in time, shoving his boot into Vale's mouth.
"Kill yourself! Bitch!" Danny presses down on the side of Vale's cheek, breaking off teeth by pushing all his body weight down on his feet.
Vale cries out in pain as Daisy and Reymi look on in amazement, neither of them knew what to do. They were conflicted between saving Vale and allowing Danny to escape.
Vale, even being under Danny's entire body weight, muttered out a single word. "CNC!" He screamed out as his teeth all broke out and snapped out of his gums.
A sharp flash of light blitzed past Danny's left.
Suddenly, at that moment, time seemingly stopped moving all at once. Danny looked into blank space as a singular drop of blood splattered on his cheek.
He looks down and his left hand is completely severed from his left forearm, a clean slice ripped through his flesh and broke his bone, resulting in a clean cut.
