Kevin watched Lucy closely as she said the made a wise decision. He knew something was off and he was about to find out what. Mere seconds later she ordered her guard to move them to their cells. “I knew I couldn’t trust you!” he yelled as he struggled, wanting to give resistance to the guards. She commented by telling him she let them leave but only this room. “Sick bitch!” he yelled as the guards took him away.
Just then Vince took a swing with his fist in the direction of Lucy. Kevin saw one of the guards next to him raise a gun at Vince, Kevin just snapped. All the adrenaline and the need to protect Vince made sure he was able to pull himself lose from the guards. He used his fist and punched the first guard down, turning around kicking the other guard that was restraining him. Then he rushed to the guard with the gun, grabbed him with both hands and pushed him on the floor. Kevin saw the gun falling and quickly grabbed it. This happened very fast and in no time Kevin now had the upper hand as he aimed the gun at Lucy. “Vince come to me.” Kevin said softly as he wanted to keep his boyfriend safe.
Lucy was by the desk and had hit the alarm which Kevin and Vince would not be aware of. She sat on the desk corner crossing her legs "Go ahead... you could pull that trigger. But may I ask you... in a building full of lets say fifty guards... why would I put a gun near you?" She looked at the barrel and slowly walked towards him kissing the side of the gun.
"I think you are shooting blanks honey" She then turned around and watched as more men entered the room "High security it is. Put them in adjacent cells. And bring the keys to me." Buildings like this often had holding cells built when they had retail stores inside. Mainly for shop lifters and her guards had upgraded the holding areas.
With the girl close Vince saw any oppourtunity. While she mouthed off and boasted about blanks he lunged. Why would she put herself so close to them? He grabbed her and pulled her back. The guards wouldn't shoot her, she was their leader. He had learnt a lot, about leaders and what men would do to protect them. He thought back to the airforce base, and what the men would do for their leader they thought would protect them.
"Press yourself agaisnt the wall," he said to Kevin.
Vince pulled the girl with him, pressing his back agaisnt the nearest wall. "Stay back," he yelled at the guards, "you move I kill her. I known you won't shoot her, so you will do as I say. Anything other than that and the bitch dies."
Kevin cursed inside his head as Lucy told him he aimed a gun at her with blanks. Kevin slowly lowered the gun as he saw all the guards entering he room. Kevin knew when he lost, she told the guards to put them in cells. Kevin looked down, he failed, he didn’t protect his boyfriend and they didn’t escape.
Just as the guards nearly reached Kevin, Vince took his chance. Vince told Kevin to push himself to the wall. Kevin rushed to the wall and did as Vince told him. “Be careful, I don’t want to lose you again.” Kevin said softly. He liked Vince was trying to get them out, but he didn’t want him to be in danger. For now all he could do, was keep close to the wall and watch the guards, if one would raise his gun, Kevin would be forced to rush over to the guard, he needed to protect Vince.
Lucy spoke calmly and glazed her eyes at Kevin "Bring the girl in..." Once she did a man holding a loaded gun brought Becky Brady in with an arm wrapped around her neck and the barrel of the gun on the side of the girls head. The men then spoke.
"Release her and get against the wall hands up... or we re decorate the office with this innocent girls brains... And to prove this one is loaded" He fired a bullet into the floor.
Lucy now had the largest grin on her face "I would make your mind up quickly. Hes not the most patient of men."
Becky had been in the garden area in the 12th floor courtyard when she was picked up. Shreeking and wriggling as they carried her up the stairs she kicked one of the guards in the mouth breaking his nose. A swift backhand was delivered to her and they continued.
As she entered the room she saw two men and one had Miss Lucy in his arms. She then felt the gun come to her head "No no no no, I dont know these people please. NO..." A hand went over her mouth and her eyes where now covered. All she heard was a gun shot near her feet and began praying to herself.
Vince saw the girl and for a money fear was in his eyes. He couldn't be responsible for another person's death, yet he couldn't let Kevin die either. He would do anything for him, kill for him if he had to. Vince tightened the grip with his arm along the girls neck. "Back down, you think I care about that girl, you're wrong. Now move aside let us go." He knew he shouldn't he didn't want that girl to die, but Kevin and him came first. He had been the hero enpigh, bad people deserved to die.
Yet Vince knew what Kevin would do. He was to nice, he wouldn't want the girl to die. He wa what every hero inspired to be. For that Vince let go, sent the woman forward, flying into the girl and guy with the gun. He looked at Kevin, grabbe his hand. There was no way he was letting go. They would have to chop it off before he did that.
Kevin glared at Lucy as she said something about a girl. Moments later the a guard came in with a girl and he held a gun against her head, demanding Vince to release Lucy or the girl would die. Kevin had some fear in his eyes, they had to do something cause this wasn’t going to end well. Kevin didn’t want the girl to pay with her life, just because they wanted to escape, but then again he also didn’t want to lose Vince. He hated Lucy so much at that moment. “Why do cruel people like you exist, isn’t the world bad enough, you ill woman.” He said rather angry.
Shortly after he heard the girl beg, followed by Vince saying he didn’t care about the girl, Kevin looked at her and then turned to Vince. “Be careful, like I said I don’t want to lose you again.” He said with sad eyes. Kevin was so angry he couldn’t do more, he needed to get Vince and Him out of there, but there was nothing he would be able to do. Getting himself killed wouldn’t help anyone either. He knew Vince would get the girl killed just to get themselves out, Vince would do anything for Kevin and the other way around. Kevin liked that, but killing someone else just to get out was a bridge too far. But he didn’t had to convince Vince, cause seconds later he pushed Lucy foreward and he grabbed Kevin his hand.
Kevin smiled and looked in his beautiful eyes. “I know you didn’t sacrifice the girl, because you know I wouldn’t.” he said to him. “Doesn’t mean I wouldn't do anything out of love for you, maybe if I was the one holding that bitch, I would have killed the girl, I don’t know, but I’m glad you didn’t.” he said as he smiled as his boyfriend an slowly tightened the grip of their hands. “We’ll get out of this.” He softly whispered.
Lucy smiled walking backwards "Take them away and lets see them in separate cells. And IF VINCE gets a little roughed up and taught a lesson on the way... people may be rewarded."
She then stood by Becky and stroked her hair "Good girl. If you complete your chores we may give you a nice meal." She snapped her fingers and the guards headed in and took the two men off. Atleast three guards per man. All big and former national guard.
Vince felt the guys grab him and struggled at their grasp. He looked over at Kevin, fear in his eyes. "Let me go. Let me go you bastards." He felt a fist fly towards his stomach, knocking the air out of him.
Soon he was in a cage, Kevin in the one next to him. A man rushed toward him and brought his first towards Vince's face. Another man joined in, bringing his boot down on him. The men kicked and punched Vince until he ceased to move.
His chest rose slightly, small gasps of air escaping his lips. He could already feel his face swelling, lip cut. Blood ran down his face from his nose and his brow. One eyes was swollen shut and he looked over at Kevin with his good eye.
Kevin felt fear rushing through him as he heard how Lucy said that those who rougher Vince up might get rewarded. “You stay away from him!” Kevin yelled as he struggled against the guard as they slowly dragged him out. “I will kill you, you fucking bitch.” Was his final yell before he was out the room.
On their way there he saw how one of the guards smacked Vince in the chest. “Leave him alone!” Kevin yelled as a tear rolled dawn his cheek. Not from sadness, but from anger and pain of seeing his boyfriend hurt. He tried to struggle against the guards, but soon felt a fist against his cheek, giving him a busted lip.
Moments later he was thrown in his cell, he looked to the right seeing Vince in a different cell. He wanted to get close to him but they were separated by bars. But then he felt once more anger and fear as some more guard entered the cell. He saw how they gave Vince a beating, Kevin rushed to the bars pushing his arms through them as if he wanted to grab the guards, while yelling at them. “Leave him alone, fuckers.” Kevin kept yelling as tears kept running down his face. After some time the horror ended, the guards left, Kevin his throat hurt from yelling, his eyes red from crying. He was still with his arms though the bars. Vince was on the floor, a swollen face, blood and looking at him. “Vince…..sweetie…can….can… you.. get to me.” Kevin said softly as tears kept coming. “I’m sorry I couldn’t protect you.” He added softly. “I promise I’ll get us out of here and then I will take care of you.” He said in-between sobs.

Vince looked over at Kevin when the guards left. He heard his voice, saw his arms. And despite the pain he smiled. He tried to move, tried to stand. He's knees were weak, and arms hun at his sides like noodles. He slowly stood, despite the pain. Wether it was through stubbornness or love he made it to the bars. Kevin was on the other side.
While they were still apart they across from one another, only steel bars between them now. He looked at him, "Kevin," he said through a swollen lip, "I'm here hun. I'm here." He felt test in his eyes, falling down his cheek onto his shirt. He extened one arm and tried to grab Kevin's hand, but he was to weak and far away.
Vince stood leaning agaisnt the bars, looking at Kevin. His weight was all on the bars, unable to stand otherwise. "I missed you. You don't know how much I missed you. I thought..I thought I would never see you again." He looks down. "You were supposed to be in England. With you parents, with mine. I was going to sail to you, or try at least. I don't know how I found you, it was a miracle."
Kevin saw how Vince smiled at him. His heart hurt from all the sadness he felt as he saw how they hurt Vince. Mere seconds later he saw how Vince softly made his way over, he admired how strong he was, he could only imagine how hard it was to move, but still he did it, despite all the pain.
Then all of the sudden Vince said his name, it was like music to Kevin’s ears. His name echoed in the cold, dark space. Seconds later he heard his boyfriend again telling him he was here. “It’s so good to hear you say that sweetie.” Kevin spoke softly. His tone was a bit weird, that was some sadness in it, cause he just saw his boyfriend get beat and there was nothing he could do, but there was also some happiness in it.
Kevin then saw how Vince tried to grab his hand, but he couldn’t reach it. “We’ll get out of here and I will never let you go when we are free.” Kevin said as once more a tear fell down on the floor. He heard how Vince told his story and said he missed him. “I missed you too, but I never gave up, I would have crossed the whole world to find you.” He said as he looked at his boyfriend, with his watery eyes. “And I know I was supposed to be in England, but I wanted to surprise you and took a plane, but when it landed, the airport was overrun I barely made it out.” Kevin said slowly cleaning his eyes. “I’m glad I found you in time, if you would have sailed to England, it would have been harder to find you.” He added. “But I’m pretty sure our love is strong enough to overcome anything honey.” Kevin said.
He sighed and once more tried to reach Vince, this time he was able to briefly touch his fingers. Sadness filled his heart again as he saw Vince his cute face all swollen. “I should have been there to protect you, I always do, I’m sorry.” Kevin spoke softly, trying not to start crying again. Kevin was normally not a person that would cry, but this situation and all these emotions, who wouldn’t cry?
"I won't ever let you go either," Vince said stretchinf out his hands. "You'll never be out of my sight again." He smiled, the blood stretching as he grinned. "So much has happened. I should never have left you. I should have stayed in England with you." It had been two years, he couldn't believe this was happening. "I missed you. Two years is to long."
He looked down, Vince had changed over the two years, he was colder, more bitter. He didn't want to show this though, he wanted to go back to normal. Go home, with Kevin. He leaned back and looked back up. "I saw so much, so much that I never want to see again. This place, this is nothing compared to what I experinced." He wanted to share it all with him, but he couldn't. "I kept thinking of you the whole time, wanting to be with you. To see your face again."
He felt tears again. "How are we going to get out?"
It felt so good to feel Vince his hands, Kevin took a brief moment to enjoy the feeling. He saw the blood dripping of his face, it hurt him that he couldn’t take care of Vince. Mere seconds later he heard how Vince started to beat himself up about the whole situation. “Hush sweetie, it’s not your fault, no one expected this would happen.” Kevin said softly as once again tears ran down his face. “I….I…I can’t explain how hard it was, two years is indeed way too long.” Kevin said while sobbing. “Touching your hand feels so good, I missed you too.” He said as more tears kept coming. “It’s, n.. not enough though, I want to hug you, pull you close to me and tell you everything will be alright.” He said slowly losing more and more control over his emotions as the talk continued.
He heard how Vince told him that he went through a lot. Kevin felt even more sadness coming in his heart. “I wish, I could have been there for you, support you, protect you.” Kevin said softly still sobbing. Shortly after he heard how Vince told him he was always on his mind. Kevin kept quiet for a brief moment to put his emotions back in place and finally stopped crying. He wiped of his tears and cleaned his eyes. “Me too, not one day passed without me thinking of you, hoping to find you back alive.” He said trying to keep strong, the tone in his voice was filled with sadness, but yet a part of courage too. He smiled at his boyfriend as he asked how they could escape. “I don’t have a plan yet, but we are together again, and I’m sure we can work out a solution, with you by my side I can beat anything.” He spoke as he softly rubbed his hand.
All their friends, the ones from the baruchel or party. They were dead. Gone by walkers, or lost to the outbreak. They were Kevin and Vince's closest friends. They went to coffee, spent weekends and dinner after dinner with them.
"Kevin, they are all dead," he said quietly, "all our friends. They died fairly early on, didn't even make it out of vegas." He looked down. "I couldn't save them. But I can save us. They are all gone, I watched them die and I just ran. You'll never see them again, and I'm sorry."
He dropped down to the ground, out of weakness and exhaustion. "Kevin. I want to hold you baby. I want to hold you close. I need you." He whiped a tear from his eye, the other swollen shut. "I keep thinking this is a dream, and that I'll wake up. I can't believe I actually found you."
He smiled, "how did you get here? Was it after everything happened, or before?" He hoped it was before, that Kevin didn't have to brave the sea to find him. He also hoped it was after, that he could tell him how Britain was during all of thiis.
"There's a farm, we can go there when we get out. It's in another state, but it's safe there." Vince had travelled across the country on foot. He was here, now, safe.
Kevin looked at Vince as he heard about their friends, he knew y what Vince told him the he felt responsible for their deaths. For a brief moment he thought about their friends, all nice people, but for now all he wanted was Vince, he was the one thing in the world that he wouldn’t lose. “Don’t apologize, we all did stuff and most important is that you are safe.” Kevin said softly.
Then he heard how Vince said he wanted to hold him. Kevin had to stop himself from getting oncem ore emotional, he had to stay strong for Vince. “I want all of that too and we will, we found each other in this shitty world, our love was strong enough, we kept searching, so I’m sure we’ll get out of this.” Kevin said as he looked at Vince. “Then you can rest you head on my chest, like you so much loved to do before this, while I softly play with your short hair.” He added. “Everything will be alright sweetie, we’ll find a way.”
Then he heard how Vince once again asked the question how he got here, Kevin told him a some minutes ago, but he figured it was because of the pain and exhaustion. He didn’t want to tell him so he explained the story again. “I was already in Vegas when things happened, I took a flight to Vegas to surprise you, when we landed the airport was overrun with those filthy things, I barely made it out.” Kevin said softly. “Then I went from place to place looking for you my love.” He added.
After that he listened how Vince told him about a farm and how they needed a plan. Kevin sighed, deep down he hoped Michael and the others would come bust him out, but he would understand if they didn’t, but for now it was their only hope. He wouldn’t tell Vince and he would start to think of a different plan. One thing he knew, that was that they had to get out of there. “There has to be some way, I need to think clear first, I want to get out too, but for now I just want to talk to you, enjoy while I hear your voice.” He said with a little smile. But the smile faded as he looked at Vince and saw all his wounds. He looked down and closed his eyes for a brief second, before looking at his boyfriend again. “Does it hurt a lot?” he asked softly. “When we get out, I’ll take care of you, you know that right?” he added.
"I stayed around Vegas," Vince said whiping away his tears from his eye. "There was a school, they kept people safe. It became over run by raiders. I had to leave, left with a group to an airforce base. Those people, they...they made these people here seem normal. What they did, what I saw them do. It was to much I had to leave. It made me sick what I saw. These monsters the people. It was to much. I left shortly after getting there, knew I had to find you. I was done with this world, wanted to go home."
He looked down, "now we are together again."
He looked at the bars. "we can't get these open, if a guard comes. Maybe you can grab him take him. I don't even see anyone, or hear anyone. What do these people want? We have nothing to offer. They wanted names, the group you are with. Who are they? Why are they important to this group? What did they do to them?"
Kevin asked if it hurt and Vince looked away. "I'll be fine. I can handle the pain. Knowing I'll get to hold you again is medicine enough." He coughed a little. He hurt, all over. He would no doubt have bruises and be out of it for a while. He could barely stand, and wheezed every third or so breath. It was obvious he hurt, by the way he winced when he moved, or the physical swelling bruises on him. He was in visible pain, yet said he didn't hurt, for Kevin.
A door opened to the dark room with the guard shoving Becky inside. She yelped as the man raised his rifle threatening to hit her. In her hands she held two small bags with essentially the minimum needed to keep the two men alive. Lucy had tried to tell her many times that a Japanese soldier in times lesser than this could survive on a solitary bag of rice and some raisins for a month.
She placed them by each sell and stepped back looking to see if the door is shut, she was more a prisoner in many ways than the two men. Her life had been used earlier to keep the men at bay. She opened a locker and offered them the plain orange shirts. The purpose of which was to make the prisoners stand out "Please take them... I want to eat tonight"
Kevin listened to Vince as he told what happened to him so far. It once more made him feel sad, knowing his sweetheart had to go through this all by himself. Vince finished with saying that at least now they were together.
“Yes, you are all I need in this dark world.” He said softly trying to smile at him. Mere seconds later Vince started to think of plans on how they could escape. “Euhm, yeah I could do that, anything to get out.” Kevin said “Not yet though, we need to think this through.”
Then Vince made him smile as he said it didn’t hurt so bad and a holding each other was medicine enough. Kevin knew he was lying, he could hear in his tone that he was in pain, but it was such a sweet comment. “I look foreward to holding you in my arms again.” He said as he looked at Vince
Just then the door opened Kevin looked up and saw the girl from earlier. They both got a small bag followed by an orange jumpsuit. The girl asked them to please take it, she wanted to eat. “I will take it but I will refuse to wear it.” Kevin said disgusted by the idea they had to wear the jumpsuit, just like a prisoner. “That bitch, is looking for trouble.” Kev said referring to Lucy. He saw the girl was in bad shape and he wish he could help her too, but for now he couldn’t do anything.
