Innocence

3- Kill them

Somehow Isaac and I fell sleep that night. Not without tossing and turning but we did sleep eventually. I don't know how long we slept for, but we were wide awake again when the yelling started.

"Up! Up! On your feet!!" Yelled The burly man that had taken Isaac to the showers the night before.

We were up in a flash, not wanting to make mistakes. Mistakes could lead to very very bad things.

"Follow me." Said the man, as he turned and left the room, trusting that we'd follow him.

    As we walked down the unfamiliar hallways, I decided that I needed names for these monster excuses for people. And so, since I wasn't very creative at all, I named the burly man, Burly and the woman from yesterday, Posh Spice because of how sophisticated she looked, not necessarily because she looked or acted like Victoria Adams in the slightest.

Isaac and I were brought into a room. There was nothing in the room but two chairs side by side and one behind an odd looking coffee table thing.

"Sit." Said Burly, as he sat behind the coffee table.

Isaac and I sat slowly and timidly as if we thought if we put too much pressure on the metal chairs, they would explode out from under us.

Burly cleared his throat, and in his deep voice said, "You're here for a reason."

Isaac and I shared sideways glances. This man was insane.

"What's your names? Tiny, you go first." He said. Apparently he had a nickname for me too.

I froze, terrified of somehow messing up and instead of saying 'Taylor', saying something stupid like 'Jose'.

Isaac nudged me with his elbow, and I came back from my daze, "T-Tay...Taylor H-Hanson...sir."

Burly smirked, "What about you, Lanky?"

"Isaac Hanson", Isaac said confidently as if this was a normal everyday occurrence.

"Hm...brothers." Burly muttered.

We all sat in silence for a minute. 'Is he gonna tell us why we're here?' I asked myself, impatiently. I just wanted to go home and hug my mom and pretend this never happened.

Suddenly, the door busted open and Posh Spice walked in.

"So, have you told them?" She asked Burly.

He smirked, "No, I thought you should do the honors." He got up from the chair and walked to her, placing his hands on her waist and passionately kissing her. Tongue and all.

My eyes widened, 'Not only do we have an insane burly man, we have an insane burly man and his insane girlfriend. And together, they are the most insane couple I've ever seen.'

After a few minutes, they parted and shared a seductive look. My face scrunched in disgust. Burly leaned into her ear and whispered something to her. Her eyebrows raised and she nodded her head as Burly exited the room. Her eyes locked onto Isaac and I.

"Taylor....Isaac..." she said, strutting over to us and taking her long fingernail and running it down our cheeks and chins as she passed us on her way to the chair Burly had been sitting in, "Hanson..." she finished.

A shiver ran down my spine, my breathing deepened and my heart raced. My eyes filled with tears of terror. I was close to a breakdown. But I blinked the tears back and put on the bravest face I could muster.

"What a nice last name." She smiled evilly.

We stayed silent.

"Well, I think this is the part when you say, 'Well thank you, Mrs. Ryan'" she said, smiling as if she were lecturing a kindergarten class. At least she had a name. 'Mrs. Ryan'.

"We have nothing to thank you for." Isaac spat.

My eyes widened in shock. What was he doing?

"Well, I think you have plenty to thank me for. I have given your little brother here, a shower, and soon you'll both be fed and watered." She said, as if Isaac's comment was just normal conversation.

Isaac sneered, "You took us from our home, our family, you shot a man outside of our door, you took our freedom, we shouldn't-"

"Do you want to know why you are here or not?" She asked, looked peeved.

Isaac shut his mouth and sighed, defeated.

    "There is a few jobs we need you to do. You see, my husband and I...we have issues with certain people. You're here..." She smirked

     "...to kill them for us"
