Peace...oh its so peaceful here...I'm so...tired...never wake...up. Angel's peace didn't last much longer as she felt her body being shaken. It took a lot to force her eyes open and when she did, she regretted it. "Aw fuck." She said loudly. In front of her was none other than Kane himself. "Good morning Angel. I assume you had a nice sleep." "M-morning?" Angel said in wonderment. "Yes, you were asleep the whole night." She shook her head slightly trying to remember what happened. She realized she was tied to a chair, roped tightly against it. She couldn't move her hands and her body felt heavy and dirty. Angel didn't need a mirror to know she looked like shit and was real banged up. She looked back up at Kane, seeing him in his black attire, heavy army boots, white bald head, scarred face, and smirk on his face. Seeing his face led everything back to her, and she gasped in surprise. "Where are they!!" Angel barked out, trying to jump out of her seat, making the chair bounce around. Kane's minions ran over and restrained the moving chair.
"Your little friends? Oh. Well how silly of me not to invite them to this blessed event. I'm sure there DYING to attend." Kane said with a smile. He moved to the side as some men brought out Kevin and Donna. Her eyes widened as she saw them both bonded, blood all over them. Kevin was concious, but Donna wasn't. She was still tied up though, as they laid her down in front of Angel. They pushed Kevin down to the concrete ground, pushing his head into the floor. He grunted through his gag in pain. Angel couldn't help but wince at the noise. "Let them the fuck go Kane! This is with me!!!" She tried to get out of the ropes again, jumping around, but it did no good. "I don't think so princess." Kane told her simply. "You see, I happen to know you care for these people. They are your friends. And I want YOU to suffer." "Oh fucking get over it Kane! So what! I caught your filthy stinkin ass fair and square! Just because your a goddamn sore loser and can't run fast enough your gonna sit here and torture me? So fucking what? You spent a few months in prison, your out. What the fuck is the big deal, kill me and get it over with!" She shouted, losing her temper.
He chuckled, his eyes wide with pleasure. Clasping his hands together he walked over to her. "To make a statement of course. To tell the world you don't mess with us." Angel's lips tightened, and she glared at him. Gawd how she hated this man. The torture, the killings, the violence he put on. She knew about the rituals he did. The children he took from their very homes and sacrificed them for some satanic reason. She still couldn't understand how this man had so much power. He wasn't anything special. He was a scrawny, white guy. About as big as A.J. in size. If he had been a bigger man she would have been no match for him. She knew he was weak, and he was practically begging her to beat the shit out of him. "Goddammit..." Angel seethed, lowering her head to the concrete ground. A moment of silence was the only peace she had, for it was quickly brought to a collapse. "Alright! Enough dawdling. Let's begin." Kane announced. Angel watched them yank Kevin to his feet, and push him over towards a metal pole. He grunted in pain as they roughly tied him against it, his feet and hands bonded.
Angel gulped, anger rising. Why this? Why now? Why to him? Goddamit, this is all my fault. She thought. "Now Angel, we're gonna play a game. A simple game you know, just to see if you did your homework. Maybe we'll even throw in a few *truth* questions... For every right answer, Kevin will get sliced with a knife, for every wrong, he'll get burned with this...," Kane held up a plugged in iron. Angel's eyes widened. "What!" "Oh now, Hush dearie. Just think of it this way, less pain if you get it right for your man..." He smirked at the last word. She glared at him, her stare full of hatred. "First question," Kane said, him holding the iron in one hand, and the knife in the other. "Please...Kane..." She looked up into Kevin's eyes, and knew she'd stoop as low as begging to her enemy for this man. Averting her eyes to Kane's she continued. "Kane, look. Please, I'm BEGGING you, don't do this. Don't make ME do this. Please, just kill me. Do whatever you need, but I can't..." Her words began to crack, and she was losing it.
Kane's widened eyes, and huge grin was all to unbearable. "Ah...so...Ms. Lin isn't as tough as we thought now is she...I've wanted this, I've wanted to see you beg. I'm glad all it took was one man to do the trick. "Fuck. Kane, FUCK! Just, goddammit! You can't do this! You'll never get away with this! I swear to god, you better not untie me, or I'll kick your fucking ass mother fucker!!!!" She couldn't take it, she was losing it. Jumping up and down in her chair, as hard as she could was all she could think of. "Aw shit. Restrain her!" Kane ordered his men. Jumping up to her feet, she used the chair tied to her back to hit the men coming towards her. She knocked one off his feet, and another in the head, causing him to fall to the ground unconcious. Growling, Angel ran towards Kane, who's eyes widened, and to her satisfaction she saw a glint of fear in his eyes. But she didn't make it. A body threw itself against her, and knocked her to the ground, chair and all. Her head hit the concrete hard, but not enough to knock her unconcious. Her shoulder was defintely bruised, and her body ached. "Big mistake bitch!" A voice hissed in her ear, as they uprighted her, and dragged her back in front of the scene with Kane and Kevin. "Tsk tsk Angel, not a good idea." She didn't look up to see Kane walking over to her, she only felt the knife slice her cheek. She hissed in pain.
"Hold her head up." She heard Kane say. A pair of hands grasped the sides of her face roughly and made her face Kevin and Kane once again. Kevin looked into her eyes, and she saw fear. If only she knew most of that fear was for her...
* * *
Kevin winced as another sharp pain hit him in the side. It was horrible. He remembered seeing Trinity getting knocked off her feet by a black camero, and than a pair of arms grabbing him. He was forced into a car, that brought them to a warehouse. There he was beaten for an hour, and left in a cold room with an unconcious, bleeding Donna, worried sick about Trinity. Now here she was, in front of him. Her hair astrew, blood streaming all from her body. Her bruised and cut face looked angrier than ever. He was so scared, but not for himself. For her. He wished he could beat the crap out of this Kane person, and take Trinity in his arms, and hold her and never let go. He was so terrified that this was it. He would never see her again after a few more moments.
"Alright Angel...now we're going to get to the game." Kane stated. This confused Kevin. Why did this man keep calling her Angel? Was it a pet name of some sort? Some sick horrible name to torture her with? What was going on? He was so confused. Kevin saw Trinity's eyes cast down to the floor, and she slowly nodded. "Alright, first question. Truth, because from the look on loverboy's face, he seems to be very confused. Now, its come to my attention, he doesn't know the truth. Well, I think one way to start the process is that everyone knows who everyone else is. And not TRINITY EDWARDS," Kane looked at Kevin, "She's NOT Trinity Edwards." "Kane, come on. This isn't neccessary." Her voice seemed so full of guilt. What was happening? "Do it, or I'll give him both the iron and the knife." Kane ordred. With a sigh, she started. "Kevin...I'm not going to look you in the eyes for this. I can't. I dreaded this day, and I never expected it to be like this. The truth is, I always expected it in a warm water bed, me and you, together in entangled passionate love. Than you...storming out the door..." She smirked softly to herself. Kevin's heart dropped to his stomach at the thought of what she was saying.
"Kev...I'm not...Trinity Edwards...like he said. Trinity Edwards doesn't exist." What??? Kevin's brain shouted, his eyes looking her up and down. "My name is Angel Lin. I'm with the LAPD police force. I'm an undercover cop. I was posed as Trinity for my safety. I caught this dick here, Kane, one day, and his gang, the skinheads threatened a world-wide bloodbath. My chief didn't want me to help, so he sent me off to a place where he didn't think anyone like him would look. But the inevitable happened...Kevin, I-I'm sorry. This wasn't supposed to happen. I wasn't supposed to fall in lo-" But Angel couldn't finish cause the sound of a door bursting open and shouts was all Kevin saw last before he saw darkness.
