As he uttered the last of his words with venom.
"You prostitutor."
Well this wasn't how she thought things would go.
Sure, she thought he was going to rough, but this isn't what she had in mind. The real problem is that she couldn't breathe, as she clawed skin till it bled.
She gazed in the man's eyes as she slowly lost bits and bits of clarity in her vision slowly overcome with darkness. She gazed into a hate filled eyes, that of a father, she suspected from what the man raged out his now teeth clenched mouth.
Then the hands loosened, and she swallowed large amounts of air into her lungs.
Her hands fell loosely to the side, as she stared at the man.
He stared at her with a deeply hidden hate, so now rather than being relieved that she's alive and breathing, she panicked.
"Get arghh off me, you brute!"
His hands tensed again, as it immediately caused her to shut up.
As her eyes widened looking at him, her fear lacing her expression.
"Wonderful your quiet." He said disdain evident in his voice. "Now listen, carefully, and if you dare lie! You'll be answering with less of yourself."
She froze and nodded, as she slowly moved her hand to her cloak, as the spoke.
"Where is the migration headed too?"
"Eco...eco city." She said hesitation evident.
A dangerous shade fell over the man's expression, which Mily caught as she retracted her hand in fear he noticed. "Hard to believe, you would make me take you exactly where the migration headed."
Mily stared at the man in disbelief, "What!?, why wouldn't want a one wa–!!" She cut herself off as she felt a slight pressure build round her neck.
"You get comfortable to fast don't you huh?" He said questioningly, she stared at the man confused at how he spoke, as if she was a anomaly out of many.
Wait!!!
He found the others!
But how many?
Probably not much considering he has no idea where we're headed, maybe i can steer him off track.
"Sorry." She squeaked out through the pressure which he loosened. "I was liei–!!!"
Oh come on!!!
She grabbed at the forearms of the psychopathic mood swinger of a man. "Trying to lie is a stupid idea." The man said, as he saw Mily's eyes widen as she saw the glint of artificial light in his right eye.
Cybernetics in the eye!!!
Who is this guy to afford, stuff that expensive.
"You're heart was quite non erratic considering the situation when you told me your going to Eco-City." He said as his expression grew darker.
Her face fell as she remembered his threat.
if you dare lie! You'll be answering with less of yourself
With no hesitation she grabbed the edge of her cloak and pulled it close in an instant, as she went beneath the cloak.
As the man with no hesitation, let one hand struggle the life out of her, and with his other it locked into a fist with a metal ting.
As he knocked it back, but Mily threw her coat at him, the man still commited with the strike as it dragged the cloak with.
As his cybernetic fist made contact with something, as it immediately began violently twitching with slight sparks flying off it.
Rather than panicking he stood up as he twisted his whole body and lifting Mily and slamming her down on the truck, causing it to shake.
His hand kept locked around her neck, as he sweeped the cloak aside with his foot, as it revealed a dazed Mily, with a pistol like object that had a finger guard reaching the tip of the gun to the handle, it was bulky and thicker than a normal pistol, but it's back side had a cylinder storage unit barely filled, that held a blue liquid, even though it looked like water with the faint tint of blue.
"Echo!??" He said in a shocked tone whispering it under his breath, as he grabbed the gun, and crushed it, at least he did after detaching the storage unit from the gun.
Mily gained her barings after seeing and hearing the crumbling of her only weapon. Her eyes grew wide in shock and fear after registering what happened.
Then she saw the gaze of the man, staring at the Echo flowing in the cylinder, as he stirred it slowly.
"So this organization also is behind this stuff huh?" The man said.
"Hey, let's please, like really really please, talk about this." She squeaked out, the pressure around her neck lessened than before, which she dearly appreciated.
"From what I heard this is experimental tech, that can drain the core self or being of something and turn it into an addictive liquid." Then he smiled as he finally stopped stirring the cylinder in his hand, "And the reason for it's addictive trait is that it's pure energy, literally consumable energy, and depending where you drain the energy from, like example..." He paused as his face fell, as the man's dark brown eyes seemed to deam to that of dead man's, his broad crocked nose apparent above his full curly bread with grays and full silky curly hair that fell down parting and resting aside the sides of his light face, his South Eastern features were clear and apparent.
"Electricity could be drained into Echo as well, and drag along an electric factor to it." He paused, "Just like how you drained the electric signals in my cybernetic hand, which I'm happy was a short contact ,or it wouldn't have been just a few seconds problem, though can i ask you something and after that I'll let you go."
Mily nodded immediately, it wasn't like she was gonna keep her mouth shut, she isn't going to risk her life for a simple secret.
"We're you trying to drain the energy in my body?" He asked.
Her face paled, as she felt that wasn't the exact question he wanted to ask, as to rush to the situation she simply nodded.
"How... Much?"
Mily felt like telling him would make the unstable psycho kill her, and if she didn't, same result.
So she wheezed out, "All..urgh, all of it t-t." The man saw she was having a hard time speaking so he lessened the pressure once more.
Mily gasped then, "I was going to drain everything till you shriveled up and died!" She said in a rushed panicked tone, she raised her hands in defense crossing them over each other and looked away, eyes shut tight as she shivered.
Then after a while she peaked and just saw the man staring at her uncaringly.
She parted her hands slowly as she continued to stare at him questioningly.
"What?" He asked, removing his hand from her neck, that showed a red, purplish mark.
"I thought you'd just end me right now and get rid of someone you hate for some reason." She said, her voice was growing a bit enraged but calmed herself in, due to a bit of fear hanging over her as she felt her neck tenderly with her fingers, gasping bits here and there.
The man just looked down on her, quietly as he then asked her, "Loveable, cute Mily have you ever wondered how this tastes? Answer this i will let you go."
Mily looked at him, a bit of disbelief traced in her expression, "Wait, woah i-i did, didn't i already answer you? did i not?!" Mily spoke as she felt a bit of a pit began to build in her chest this time, as the man only gave a cold expecting gaze as if all she just said mattered little in front of his question.
She stared at the man as a shaky breath escaped her, "No... no i never did."
"That's wonderful, sadly others can't say the same, specifically the children of worrying parents, always worried about this sort of things getting into the streets." He said bringing it up for Mily to clearly see,
Then with the other hand he opened the cylinder storage unit, he took a sniff at it and a pleasantly surprised expression appeared on his face.
"Hmm odorless, take a smell at it...check it for me." He said, his tone friendly.
Mily looked at him then back at the drink apprehensively, then she got close and smelled it...
Wait it smelled?!
Then her body seemed to pause and then relax in entirely, as she exhaled shuddering.
Then the man gripped her jaw and poured the liquid down her throat. Her eyes dilated as her whole body twitched and her hair stood.
...
...
...
The girl with a cloak had a red tint on her face due to her imagination blaring and the vehicle shaking do to movement in the back.
Then the man entered, which caught the girl off guard.
"...Where's Mom?"
"She said she wanted to stay in the back for a bit."
The girl shrugged at that.
Oh ya did she forget to mention, out of all the everyday and few day routine she mentioned before about her Mom.
The normal stuff obviously.
That...
"My Mom...is weird."
"Tell me kid." The man said back, as he started the car.
