CHAPTER SEVENTEEN: Friends like these (Pax)

“What’s wrong with him?”

Ruler shrugged and sounding disgusted, he replied, “I don’t know. I’m rather disappointed in him. I expected him to have a lot more pluck.”

“What did you do to him?”

“Nothing,” Ruler replied indignantly. “I gave him a little piece of his childhood. Most people would be grateful.”

He could hear their voices, but their words weren’t making any sense. Still lying on the damp concrete floor, he had no concept of how much time had passed. He was cold, really cold. He thought, I gotta get up, I gotta move, I gotta escape, but he couldn’t translate his thoughts into action. He was stuck. His brain wasn’t working for him anymore. For all the times Gears told him there was nothing in his head, this was the first time he believed his mind was truly empty.

Sounding disinterested, Gray asked, “What do you want to do with him?”

“Kill him.”

“How?” Gray asked, with slightly more enthusiasm.

“I don’t know yet, but if he doesn’t move soon he’ll die of exposure.”

Staring into the cell, Gray asked, “Can he move?”

“He could if he wanted to. He’s being lazy, but I have to go. That idiot Hull is getting it all wrong again.”

At the mention of Hull being in trouble, Gray appeared to perk up and asked cheerfully, “What’s he got wrong?”

“The Ranch! He’s going to fuck up the Ranch and not in the right way.” Stamping his foot, he added, “I just can’t get decent help anywhere. You people are so fucking stupid.”

Now alarmed, Gray asked meekly, “What do you want me to do?”

“Watch this one. You can play with him, but don’t kill him, and don’t hurt him too much. He’s mine to kill, not yours, and I don’t want him so messed up he can’t enjoy his own death.”

With a worried look, Gray whined, “Why don’t you kill him now?”

Rolling his eyes dramatically, Ruler said in an exasperated tone, “Because I don’t have time right now. Hull is being useless and overconfident. The man never listens!”

Stepping closer to Gray, making him lean back in fear, he added conspiratorially, “This one will bring the others, and when they get here, the super hunters will kill them. While they’re trying to rescue this one, I can get rid of the Ranch and when I get back I’ll kill this one. It’s all very simple.”

Gray looked confused. “What?”

Ruler flung a frustrated look at the super hunter standing with them. “Do you see what I have to work with here? What am I supposed to do with something as stupid as this? I don’t know why I bother. I particularly don’t know why I bother with this one. He’s easily broken and I’ve no use for a POTUS, he adds no value and he irritates me.”

The female super hunter replied, “He might be useful later.”

“He better be or I’m going to kill him every day for eternity to remind myself what a waste of time it is to do business with the living.
