(Here it is~! Sorry it's so short, I needed it to be this way for reason I will not mention. Because I work in mysterious ways. Enjoy my darlings! <3 To make it up to you, enjoy this doodle of HellBent looking at D.M.B's book, which only one of you will get. I did it last night and finished early this morning! :3 Even though I was up all night wanting to puke because I'm sick, I pulled through writing/finishing this chapter last night and today since I stayed home from work! Carry on, author-san's rambles are lame)

HellBent's POV*
-------------------------------------------

D.M.B chuckled a little as he stood with a smug smile on his face while the white streaks were taking something out of me, I felt like I was being shrunken down in size, yet nothing about me was physically changed at all. Once they stopped, the aura around me disappeared, letting me go before I dropped to my knees, gravity weighing heavier. "You shouldn't be needing THIS anytime soon, now do you?" He said with a smirk in his voice as I looked up to face him. I immediately saw that he now had a psychotic look on his face replacing the calm one, in his hands he held a glowing dark red ball.

I was doubled over on the floor in excruciating pain, it felt as if every bone in my body was being slowly cracked under pressure in a thousand different places one by one. I was breathing heavily as I lifted my head weakly to shoot him a glare. "Y-you're a monster!" I growled as I was overcome with built up rage all the while trying to force myself to get up, which I do accomplish with the help of the wall. I felt slower, more sluggish, and less energetic as I charged at him in a blind rage, making a fist as I went in to punch him. He effortlessly stepped to the side as I flung past him. "Aww... You're so cute now, trying to attack me when you're now completely incapable of self-defence! I kind of see what my brother sees in you now, but no matter. I got your power, which is all I wanted from you. You can leave now, I have no business in keeping you here." He said before disappearing into his room and shutting it behind him.

I was still in pain, and if I could've, I could've punched a hole in the wall from the annoyance and frustration I had coursing through my veins. Well, if I could have, but of course I was already under extreme amounts of pain and I was in no condition to even be able to stand on my own goddamn legs from my own will. I simple stumbled and crawled my way to my room, tumbling in I pulled myself over to my desk, rooting around in the drawer till my hand touched the leather handle of my pocket knife.

And then I proceeded to dive under my bed to reach for the polished wooden handle of my hatchet, that I used just for help in dire situations, such as this one. I pulled ,yself back up and went back towards D.M.B's door once more, rapping my knuckles on his door loudly. "Not so fast coward! Get out here and fight me! Otherwise I'm inviting myself in and making a big hole in your face!" I threatened, ignoring the pain I was feeling becoming worse by the second.

He opened the door and shoved a white glowing bottle. "Drink this, it'll take the pain away." He said with a monotone voice, his eyes were back to normal. I distrusting eyed the bottle as I looked at it in my hands, narrowing my eyes at him. "How can I be sure you aren't gonna poison me or something? You've already pulled one stupid magic trick on me today." I snapped. "Because I have to keep you alive and healthy for Dolan." He rolled his eyes at me, I was about to snap at him again when my desperation pulled me back. "Alright, if you say so..." I said, drinking the contents of the bottle.

"Feel any different?" He asks, leaning in his doorway, watching me blankly. "Eh.....the pain is subsiding, I can at least be able to stand now without the use of a fucking wall.....thanks I guess.....I'm gonna call it a day, I'm feeling much more tired than usual." I say before yawning. "You should be fine, just sleep it off. If anything strange happens, let me know, I'm not perfect with my magic you know.." He gave a nervous and a somewhat questionable smile. "Sure. One question though, do you even recall what you were doing before now that led up to this?" I asked, looking down at him. "That's for me to know, and you not to find out!" He crossed his arms while looking up at me.

"Okay, whatever you say then.." I rolled my eyes, going back for my room, hopping back onto my bed and immediately plummeted into a dreamless sleep.

        But what I was going to find out is that he's taking more than just my powers for his twisted projects. He's pulling me down with him into his rapidly plummeting world of suicidal madness and deceit. Something far darker than darkness itself and coated in a convincing layer of sugar.
