Vinyl's Perspective

Six Shady's circled around me, all with belts in their hands. All of them shouting obscenities at me. The more they circled around the more shark-like they seemed. All they did was circle and circle and circle around me shouting. I was terrified, to say the least. Then, as if on cue they all stopped. Silence. No movement. Suddenly, my world was covered in black. A hood had put on my head and I couldn't see them anymore. Minutes ticked by like hours and when I almost had enough of it, one of the Shady's spoke. "Prepared for a beating?" I shook my head no. "Well, too bad!" Then I felt a stinging pain in my back and I fell to the ground.

Next, I was facing barrage after barrage of the belt whips. I felt power return to my mouth as I screamed out. "NOOOOO!" As I screamed the beating ended and I could hear only my weeping.

The hood was taken off of me and a Shady looked me in the eye. "Now the bitch decides to talk? Well guess what? You ain't getting away with that! Hold her down!" The Shady's then grabbed all of my limbs and my head with superhuman strength. The Shady that talked to me got closer to my head and said. "C'mon you stupid cunt, you know you can't escape from me!" He paused and put his head at a breath's distance from me displaying his ugly unwashed teeth. He had a nasty smell. "Not even in your dreams! Or should I say nightmares?" The minions transformed into demonic versions of Shady as they laughed. The 'normal' Shady looked over me. "Your pretty ain't cha?" He smiled and leaned in for a kiss. I struggled and tried to screamed out, but my voice was robbed from me again. He closed the space and furiously kissed me. He put his hand on my waist and pulled away as I gagged. He grinned an evil smile. His hand slowly lowered and as I realized what was happening I squirmed to no avail.

I heard his voice as if it was far away. "Wake up! Wake up! Wake..."

"Up!" Shady screamed out. I slowly raised my head towards him. "Finally! For a second I thought you died." He turned around and went to his tools.

Death would've been preferable to this. I thought. Right now my body was a ravaged mess. Cuts all over with crudely placed bandage wraps around them, with blood seeping from them. I had almost no clothes on and this warehouse was cold. All I had was my underwear and bra on.

He grabbed his gloves and put them on. "Scream for me." He punched me again and again, but all I did was wince at all of them and he started to get mad. "Fucking SCREAM BITCH! SCREAM!" I held myself strong.

Maybe I can get him so mad, he'll kill me in his rage. I thought. He was practically foaming in rage.

"SCREAM!" He threw of the gloves and grabbed one of his tools and pointed the sharp object at my face. He smiled and stabbed the knife into my thigh. I held back a scream by biting my lip and this got him to got ballistic. He tossed his tools over and flipped his tray with it. "MOTHERFUCKING BITCH!" He started beating the walls and his surrounding objects. Then he stopped abruptly.

What happened? I thought in fear. I trembled as he got closer.

"I know one way to make a woman scream." He smiled with malicious intent. He got close to me and put a hand on my waist. I raised my knee and connected with his stomach. "Ugh!" He fell over clutching his knee. "That hurt." He got up with fire in his eyes. "You asked for it." He got close and started undressing his lower body. He grabbed my knees and kicked my shin. I cried out in pain. "That's what I want to hear!" He started unzipping, but then the door broke open. Shady jumped and quickly put his clothes on. Loud footsteps followed as Shady went to his tray, picked up a knife and trembled. The footsteps continued and a man appeared before me.

He had red skin, black and white hair, a white beard, and was dress in a tuxedo. His yellow eyes glowed. He raised his eyebrow. "Where is Shady?" His voice boomed. Then Shady raised his knife and ran to the man.

"Ahhhhhh-" Shady ran until the man grabbed Shady's hand with his gloved one.

"There you are." The man grabbed the knife and looked at me. He walked to me with a subdued Shady up to me. "You." He pointed the knife at me. Then he cut the ropes that held me. "Keep your mouth shut about this." I fell to the floor and nodded vigorously.

"Hey! You can't ju-" Shady got the knife's handle smashed against his nose and then he shouted in pain.

The man looked at him. "Pussy." He looked at me on the floor and then to Shady. "Hmmm." He pointed the knife's handle at me. "No point getting my hands dirty with this scum." I grabbed the knife and the man made Shady kneel. "It seems like someone here is more... appropriate for the job." I looked at the knife and then to Shady.

Should I kill him for the pain he put me through? Or let him live? He doesn't deserve that. He wanted to violate me. I can't let him live. I dragged myself to him and raised the knife. I looked him in the eye and he started to sob.

"Please don't kill me! I have a wife, a family, I have two daughters. Please." He sobbed this out and went silent.

I then tried something I hadn't tried in years. I whispered out a croak. "You... should've... thought... of... them..." I spoke the words in short sentence-like bursts. "Years ago." His eyes widened and he opened his mouth to talk, but he was too late. I lowered the knife and he stopped talking. Permanently.

Octavia's POV

We raced towards the warehouse. "C'mon hurry up!" I said to Discord.

"Well excuse me. I'm already speeding and if I go faster we will probably die." Discord took a hand off the wheel and gestured around while talking.

"Please don't make us die, Discord." Fluttershy squeaked as she held the seat in front of her in a bear hug.

"Thanks, Fluttershy. At least someone understands me." He looked at me, an accusing look in his eye. I shrugged sheepishly.

Applejack's truck followed us. In it was Applejack, Rainbow Dash, and Pinkie, while the rest of us huddled in Discord's minivan. Why he had a minivan, I'll never know, but it was Discord, so I didn't question it.

We continued to drive until we saw a person dragging themselves through the floor. "Stop!" Discord slammed the brake making almost smash into the dashboard. "Why?" He asked.

I got out of the car and looked back. I saw Rainbow Dash and Applejack arguing and Pinkie laughing.

The person saw me and reached out to me before fainting face first. I saw the person had almost no clothes on and they were bleeding through bandages that were poorly done. I gasped at what I saw when I flipped her over. It was Vinyl.

"Call an ambulance!" I shouted to Discord. He took out his phone and dialed. "It's okay, I got you now." I held her head in my lap as I teared up. "It's okay..."

Author's Note

This chapter really took me a while before I decided how I was going to write it. The hitman character was Tirek, though you probably guessed that, and the song I chose to represent this chapter is:

I chose this song because A7X is my second favorite band, this song expresses this as Vinyl's nightmare and Shady's nightmare (Vinyl's revenge) and lastly this song sounds cool. Also, it is possible for mutes to talk, but depending on the severity of their mutism.
