Chapter 1: A rude awakening
Brawl stared into the darkness, his sight met nothing except the walls and wooden beams which came from the floor, Brawl observed his surroundings, there was various blood stains spattered around the walls, also various body parts were littered across the walls, held up by nails, he caught sight of a small room with the door hanging slightly open. Brawl tried to move his arms but they were secured with rope tied to a rafter which was supported by one of the various beams. He sighed, he couldn't even remember how he had gotten here, except that he did remember that he was with someone, but he couldn't see anyone else, it was then that he heard a slam and then small clinking noises grew closer and closer, he held his breath, and focused on a hallway where the noise seemed to be coming from, a few moments of the clinking passed and then nothing, Brawl started to panic.
Brawl tried to tug at the ropes but they were knotted tightly and his struggle proved fruitless, he continued to pull when a eerie voice stopped him mid-way.
"Oh, I wouldn't do that officer" The clinking noise resumed, a tall figure who seemed to have large blades protruding from his limbs appeared from the hallway.
"You see, this isn't normal rope, it has been soaked in a chemical which has disabled your powers and any attempt to escape would be... Unfortunate."
The figure started to clink across the room to another one of the beams, he began to speak again.
"I must say Brawl, you're quite a resilient man, my traps didn't kill you, nor did the acid I injected you with, that did intrigue me... Although, your friend wasn't so lucky..."
The bladed figure ripped a large black cover off the beam to reveal another body, its legs were missing and there was a large hole which seemed to travel all the way through the skull with a small clear liquid that dripped out the other side.
"Highly corrosive, oh how I love acid, it's just so effective, but not with you as I have already said."
Brawl squinted to make out who the figure was, he saw traces of blonde hair and when he saw what seemed to be a broken glowing box strapped round one of the remaining limbs he shouted out in anger
"Produce!" Brawl turned his attention to the bladed man Oh you bastard! I'll kill you!" he started to wriggle violently, the rafters straining and moaning in keeping this new force from breaking the old wood.
"Silence!" Shouted the figure slapping Brawl with the flat end of one of his blades
"Your friend is dead, but if it's any consolation he died with dignity."
Brawl started to fill with rage "Dignity!? There's nothing dignified with the way he died! You better hope I never get out of here or you'll suffer worse! I fuckin' swear it!
The figure gave out a small chuckle "I need not hope, because you'll never have a chance to escape this place, not after I am finished" The figure raised his right arm the blade still dripping with blood. "Before I silence you, I guess you deserve to know who your life will be ended by... My name is Stuart Shank."
"Good night, Lieutenant Brawl."
Yes, I know it's really short, it's more of an introduction, and to see if people will like this. If people do like it, I'll continue it. Also, the other chapters will be WAY longer, think of this as a taster.
Meh, I replaced some of the 'Brawl's with 'he'
