Where...?

[Julie tucks her hair behind her ear, her long, manicured fingernails lightly brushing against her scalp as she does so. She starts to walk down the unfamiliar hallway in search of Hal, her light haired boy who was moaning her name just a moment ago, or so she thought.]

Comments

Lady, I haven't done a damn thing to him. The only one here that's hurting him is you.

[Still walking, and in the back of his mind he can't help but hope she does something so he can punch her in the face.]

[jailbait-guilt.livejournal.com]

I... [He whispers:] Thank you.

[What now? He knows what will happen. He can't... allow this. He looks around, and avoids looking at Julie.] I'm fine. I-I... been here for months. Time works differently in this place.

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

[She's hit hard and ungracefully falls to the floor with a sharp gasp, her blood splattering across the floor from her nose. She brings a hand to it and breathes unsteadily, too shocked to look back at her attacker.]

[liquidouroboros.livejournal.com]

You heartless, disgusting, revolting bitch. I know what you did to him.

[Usually, Liquid wouldn't hit a woman. Julie was a special exception.]

Do you have any idea as to the consequences of your selfish, unspeakable actions?!

[He'd be driving the point home, starting with a sharp kick aimed at her ribs.]

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

[She sighs. Emma was not quite a lost cause, but she was far too disobedient for her own good.] Do you know where Hal is?

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

[Silently kisses his forehead.]

Months? But we were together just a moment ago...

[She shakes her head; she doesn't understand.]

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

[She coughs and rolls onto her side away from him, uselessly trying to block the kicks with her arms.]

Hal!

[It's a pathetic, desperate cry.]

[be-safe-hal.livejournal.com]

Where you're not.

[liquidouroboros.livejournal.com]

[Oh, Julie. That just pissed him off more.]

Silence, you disgusting little harlot.

[He picked her up by the collar of her shirt, slamming her against the nearest wall.]

Don't you dare call his name expecting help. Not now, not ever.

[It didn't matter that Otacon probably wouldn't want Liquid to get this kind of revenge--in the soldier's world, this was an acceptable response. Withhis free hand, he pulled the combat knife from his belt and grinned maliciously.]

You're fortunate I don't torture, woman. Then again, accidents happen. Perhaps the first strike will not be fatal, or the second or the third... It's possible you'll only die when I let you.

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

[Starting to sound impatient.] I realize that, dear. That's why I'm looking for him.

[jailbait-guilt.livejournal.com]

Uhm. Together?

T-that's what I meant with "different". [He pushes his glasses. This... hurts. He really had missed Julie. But, he promised.]

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

[She coughs hard and her vision is swimming. She hears herself screaming before what that knife really means sinks in. She doesn't know she's still screaming Hal's name.]

[liquidouroboros.livejournal.com]

[it had been a while since Liquid had acted like this--blame Otacon's influence. He had gone soft, sentimental.]

[Weak.]

[The fact that she was screaming Hal's name didn't at all escape him--it was met with a knife sinking into her shoulder.]

even typing this creeps me out XDD

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

Together. Loving you.

Come home with me, Hal. [She takes his hand in hers gently and massages his palm with her thumb.]

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

[Her body jerks and the screams halt, turning into soft whines in between pants. She grips his arm with what strength she has in her other hand, digging her nails in.]

[liquidouroboros.livejournal.com]

[The nails digging into his arm and drawing blood was met with a vicious smirk as he twisted the knife sharply]

You truly think such a thing hurts, woman? A mere scratch is well worth this...I'm getting revenge for the pain you caused Hal and acting upon the sheer rage your actions led me to.

No one, no one will ever come anywhere near Hal Emmerich ever again.

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

[She coughs again, tears and blood flowing down her face now. Her hand drops from Liquid's arm and smacks back against the wall. She's barely managing to stand. She mouths Hal's name again.]

[liquidouroboros.livejournal.com]

[He leaned in close, voice lowered to an ice cold, emotionless whisper.]

...When you come back, pray I never see you again. Least of all near any version of Hal.

[He drew the knife swiftly across Julie's throat and dropped her to the ground, ignoring the blood that now stained his SEAL uniform.]

[be-safe-hal.livejournal.com]

You're not getting it, are you? He's not ever going to be where you are.

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

[She suddenly looks fearful.]

Did something happen to him?

[be-safe-hal.livejournal.com]

Stop playing stupid. I know what the hell you and Hal are doing.

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

[A little more desperately.] Where is he, Emma? Is he alright?

[be-safe-hal.livejournal.com]

Shut the fuck up already, Mom! God. Hal this, Hal that. He's a minor, for crying out loud. And you're supposed to be his mother, not a hole for him to stick his dick in. And you're supposed to care about your daughter. You know, the other kid that nearly died because of your bullshit? Geez. You selfish fucking brat. Sad that Hal was the more mature one there.

[ladyofvermilion.livejournal.com]

[She's rather taken aback and takes a moment to recover.] Hal... is a very special boy and he means the world to me. Huey works hard, but it is my job as Hal's mother to show him love, Emma. And I do care about you, but you sometimes do things that make me very disappointed in you... [She decides to not elaborate.]

[be-safe-hal.livejournal.com]

Do you even listen to yourself? And what, disappointed that I'm not a raging slut like you are?
