Deranged Writer's Afterword

" What's the code ?", I ask Lucius again.

Torture isn't really my cup of tea and I'm not even that good at it so it's no surprise that Lucius didn't talk even after I 'tortured' him.

Punching someone in the face repeatedly doesn't really classify as torture does it ?

I kick him in the face, while restraining my strength of course to avoid killing him and ask again in a deep voice,

" What's the code ?!"

Eric did try to stop me at first but later just stood back and watched as I tried to get the code out of Lucius, he must understand that we're in pretty deep shit....

What I still don't understand is.... how could I not know the code..... I'm pretty sure that in the novel during their break in, the organization used the same code.... why wasn't it working now ?

It didn't make any sense.... why would anyone change the code ?..... change the code?

'Shit.', I think as realization seeps in.

The demon princess went berserk when Max was in his second year....she destroyed half of the prison during her rampage.... the organization broke into the prison when Max was in his third and final year.

The prison had been rebuilt by then, did they change the code then as well ?

If so then the code that I did know was the one..... that was going to be used in the future.

.....

I stop kicking Lucius and stop to think.

This was clearly not going anywhere..... maybe a change in my approach might help ?....

" Hey.... Is Lydia and Veer attending the funeral today ?..", I ask in a fake voice.

Lucius's eyes widen at my question.

A smirk appears on my face and I'm pretty sure that even though my face is covered the man in front of me can sense it.

Seeing that I was getting some sort of reaction out of him, I continue on,

" I admit I'm a little envious of you.... you've got such a lovely wife and child you know ?.... how old is your daughter again ?.....13 ?..... 16 ?.... well anyway maybe I should give them a little visit.... hmmm what do you think about that ?"

Lucius was glaring at me with intense hatred in his eyes, yet he didn't open his mouth.

" I know where the safehouse is.... Lucius Calli.", I spoke in a very low voice.

Even though Lucius was covered in blood, I could his face crumbling at my words... Due to the nature of his job the Unity sheltered his family in some kind of safehouse unknown to the world.

Of course, I have no clue as to where exactly it is....but he doesn't need to know that does he ?

Five minutes later, I got the code and the keys to open the prison. Lucius was also kind enough to point us towards where our friends were.

After his usefulness expired, I knocked him out.

I typed in the password quickly and the door swiftly slid open. Eric and I started walking down the stairs silently until he says,

" That wasn't part of the plan.... Adam."

" I was kidding about his family and I just punched him a few times.... what's the harm in that ?", I try to reassure him.

The frown on his face doesn't go away and Eric continues on ignoring me,

" I'm not like Lecia...who'll believe everything you say blindly... I know you're lying about something.... I can't trust someone who's as secretive as you.... I have people I need to take care of... so until you decide to tell me the truth....don't involve me or anybody I care about in your bullshit anymore."

Just as he finishes speaking, the stairs leading downwards end and the prison comes into view.

The air was damp and cold, the smell of mold hung in the air, in front of us were two paths.

According to Lucius, the princess would be found on the last cell on the right path, the mother was on the last cell of the left path.

Eric moves toward the left path without waiting for an answer from me and I let out a sigh and proceed walking on the right path.

I suppose Eric does have the right to be angry and I am actually hiding some information from them... but it's not like I can just say something like,

Hey, I created you bitch!.

That wouldn't work.

But Eric isn't going anywhere, I've already selected him and now sadly there's no going back,

You're mine.

I walk slowly and leisurely to the princess's cell with a single thought in my mind,

" You're going to be mine too, little princess."

Eric was terrified of Adam Creed.

At first, he didn't think much of him but the more he got to know him... the more he understood how dangerous he was.

Adam didn't have to kill Joe.... but he still did it without even blinking.

Now he threatened a person with his family, that wasn't an issue because Eric knew that he was just bluffing but what surprised him was how easily he could threaten someone....

It's like he's done this many times before ?

Adam always seemed to know everything.... this irritated Eric to no extent.

Now that Eric thought about it.... he didn't know anything about Adam other that the fact that he was adopted by the Creeds and he was initially an orphan.

Eric meant what he said, he wanted Adam to be more open with him...so that Eric could find it in him to trust him more.

From the time they've spend together till now Eric knew that he wasn't exactly a bad person....

'Sigh'

Eric had too many things going on his mind, he tells himself to stay focused and uses the key he received from Adam to open the door to the mother's cell.

'Gasp'

Eric falls down on the cold floor seeing the horrifying sight before him.
