Chapter 2: Breaking the Beast


Sleep had never come easy to one who had seen too much. But when one had
seen thousands die in a blink of an eye, one became jaded. Yet in this
teenager body and mind, I actually feel like I'm 15 years old once more.
The endless planning, the countless war preparation, it doesn't matter
anymore. I feel young and in love. I have forgetting the care-free feeling
of just being in the moment. It still bothered me a little that Keith was
evasive after we made love. But all that doesn't matter. If Keith was to be
my boyfriend, the war wouldn't become a three way stalemate and ended in
disaster. With his power combine with mine, Ash, the third super power
would easily be destroyed. We could usher in an era of peace together. Part
of me knew better than to dream like a lovesick teenager but I couldn't
help it.

For the first time in my life, I was anxious to get to school. I was ready
to go before my mom finished her morning coffee. When I got to school,
Keith seemed to avoid me again. He wouldn't even make eyes contact with
me. He still talked to me but he wouldn't start any conversation. By lunch
time, I couldn't stand it anymore. I pull him aside just as we got out of
class and asked, "Keith, what's wrong? Ever since we `had fun' yesterday,
you have been avoiding me. Did I do something wrong? Did I hurt you
yesterday?"

He looked down and said, "No Cameron. Yesterday was wonderful. But it was
still a mistake. You see, I have a boyfriend."

"What?!!!! Who is it?" The teenager in me reacted to the news quite
poorly. Part of me was in disbelief and the other part felt this cold dread
in my heart.

"I'm really sorry. I shouldn't have done what we did. Alex is the only
person who understands me and loves me. Please don't tell him! Please! I
can't lose him. I don't have anyone else," he pleaded.

I can see tears started to form and it broke my heart. I wanted to tell him
that he still got me but I held my tongue. I placed my hand on his shoulder
and said, "Don't worry about it. It will be our secret."

From my left side, I heard a voice saying, "Oh how sad! The fag just got
rejected. Guess your bitch like sucking my little bro's cock more."

I turned around and realized Daniel must have heard our conversation. Keith
was fluster and he went white. That made my blood boiled. Between clenched
teeth, I said, "Walk away! Walk away and never speaks of what you heard or
you wouldn't live past today!"

"OOOHHHH! The little homo is mad! I'm so scared now!" he taunted and
laughed.  He raised his left hand to punch me just as I was raising my left
hand to stop his heart completely. It would look natural like he had a
heart attack. In that moment, two of his friends yelled out for him to
stop. Instead of killing him, I decided to catch his punch with my left
hand and held him until his friends arrived.

"Danny! Don't get suspended again. Football season is starting, remember?"
one Daniel's buddies said.

He jerked his hand out of mine and said, "We'll finish this after school if
you have the guts to show up. Behind the gym. Three thirty." Then he walked
off with his buddies.

Keith was still white and scared. He stammered, "What...What are we going
to do? He's going to tell everyone about all of us! I can take his abuse
but I can't let Alex be outed."

I can't stand seeing Keith scared like this anymore. Something needed to be
done and it needed to be done soon. I putted an arm around his shoulder to
reassure him. "Leave this problem to me. I promise I will take care of it."
He didn't look at all convinced. "Alex is waiting for you and you can't let
him know about his. You need to be brave and protect him from this. He's
going to know something is wrong if he sees you like this. You have you act
normal, please, for him."

As we walked to the lunch area, Keith tried his best to look normal again
but his colors hadn't return to his face completely. Naturally Alex was
concerned but I explained that we ran into Daniel but everything was
ok. Keith put on a brave face and tried to focus his attention on
Alex. When he glanced at me again, I could see his silence pleading that I
would somehow be able to keep my promise. I told them both I had to go
talked to some friends and I will see them both tomorrow since I was
cutting the last two classes.

It was around 4pm when Daniel figured I chicken out from the fight and
left. As he sat down in his truck and started his engine, he felt a
metallic object pressed against his head.

"I believe we have a date after school," I said calmly. "Sorry I'm a bit
late but I had to pick this gun up. Now be a good boy and take us south on
highway 16. You and I need to have a talk in private."

About an hour into the drive, I told him to pull off the road and I
interrogated him to see if he told anyone about what he heard. He haven't
told anyone because he wanted to beat me up and forced me to admit I'm gay
in front of everyone. That would have been a total victory for him if that
did happen. We both got out of the car and I decided to drop the
illusion. The gun was never real. It was only a mental projection to get
him here. As soon as he saw that I no longer had a gun, without even
thinking of what happen to the gun, he launch at me. I side-stepped,
slammed him against the hood of his truck, and held him there. I inserted a
disruption disk into the top of his spine paralyzing him from the shoulder
down. I wrapped my arms and my invisibility shield around him and flew off
into the hillside.

On the flight to the cabin, his mouth spewed non-stop curses. We landed
near a log cabin up in the hills. I had skipped the last two classes just
to find this remote location and prepared it for this moment. The place was
still relatively clean like it was just used last summer. My telepathy
confirmed that there wasn't anyone around except on the highway miles from
here. I threw him on the couch and dissolved the disruption disk. Finding
that he could finally move, he got up and ran for the door. He didn't get
five steps before vines dropped from the ceiling, wrapped around his arms
and lifted him three feet off the ground. Vines erupted from the floor to
hold his feet in place.

Once Daniel realized he couldn't get free, he swore, "Fuck! I'm sorry about
today man. Please just let me go. I wouldn't tell anyone what I heard. I
promise! Please!"

"I just kidnapped you, paralyzed you, and flew you to a remote cabin. Do
you think I will let you go just like that?" I smirked. "I do need you to
keep what you heard a secret, but I also need some information from
you. Once I have all I need, you are free to go."

"Ok you got me. What do you want to know?"

I floated up to him and started unbuttoning his shirt and pant. He screamed
more profanities at me and struggled anew. In a minute, his shirt was open
and his pant was down to his ankles to reveal a nicely build chest,
beautiful 6 pack, not to mention what look like a hard, thick 8 inches
cock. Struggled as he may, I managed to draw an arcane symbol on his
forehead and his belly button before I floated away from him.

I sat down on the sofa and calmly addressed him. "I have no intention of
raping you so you can relax. I just wanted to ensure you are going to tell
me the truth." Then from his belly button burst five spiders, each heading
for a different part of his body in all direction. Daniel's eyes went wild
with fear as he tried to shake them off his body.

"I see you're afraid of spider," I continued. "They will only bite when you
lie or refuse to answer. Their bite will send shockwave through your
nervous system causing pain like nothing you had ever experience
before. The symbol on your head will prevent you from losing consciousness
so we can do this for as long takes. Let's begin with a simple question,
why do you hate Keith?"

His eyes were still on the spiders and ignored my question. The spider bit
into him and he let out a wail loud enough to be heard half a mile away. I
allowed him to recover before I repeat my question. This time he answered
right away.

"Because he's a little queer and I hate all queers!" It was a truthful
answer since the spider stood still.

"You and Keith were once best friends," I stated. "What happen between you
guys? And I want a detail answer."

"It was simple! I told everyone what he tried to do that day. We were
horsing around when that homo tried to kiss me!" The spider bit into him as
soon as he finished his sentence and he scream again.

"Care to try again?" I asked.  "Alright! Alright! I kissed him and he
kissed me back. I freaked out so I told everyone that he made a move on
me." I could see that it pained him to admit this truth.

"I see! That's why Keith became an outcast. It was because of you! You sold
out your best friend since childhood! For what?" I yelled at him.

"Did you think I wanted it turn out the way it did? But I just can't! I
can't be around a homo like him!" Daniel was hiding his face now. He
sounded like he had a lump in his throat. By now I had figure out the
reason he acted like he did but I will make him spit the truth out.

I have to force the issue with my next questions. "Why can't you be around
a homo like him? Why does it hurt you to be around him? I'll hold the
spiders for 1 minute so you can think."

He took his time and came up with the best answer he could think
of. "Because he made me feel what I don't want to feel alright?!" his mind
struggled to continued his answer so the spider strike again. He was out of
breath I floated near him. There were tears in his eyes as he force himself
to whisper what he had always kept bury. "I didn't want to near a homo like
myself."

I put my hand to wipe his tears away and he shook my hand away. "I'm not
like you people," he said. "Everything I know has told me being gay is
wrong! I can't allow myself to be like you people."

"I don't think I need to tell you this but you are one of us people! Just
because you can't accept yourself, you had to go and spread your suffering
to your brother and Keith. All this time that you build up this wall of
lies to hide your true self, was it worth it?"

"Yes!" he yelled at me. The spiders bit hard this time and his body
slumped. I could tell he was trying to make himself believe that lie and
the spiders bit into him again. He hanged on the vines deep in physical and
emotional pain. I decided to dissipate the spiders and let him give the
answer of his own free will. Finally, he spoke up, "No, none of it was
worth it. I hate those meatheads I hang around with. Every time they made a
gay joke, I felt like I got punched in the stomach. I hated myself more for
hurting Keith. But once the lies were told, there was no going back. I had
to just lie to myself and bury the fact that I am gay as deep as
possible. Every time I see Keith, all my emotion rose to the surface. I had
to beat it back into the dept of my being and Keith ended up as the
victim. Everyday that I see him, I went home and bang my head against the
wall. I pray to god to cure me of this feeling but it never does go away."

I release the vines and laid his weak body next to me on the couch. He
buried his face into my chest and let his silence tears flow. Here is this
big, strong, 6'2, good looking man who seem so unbreakable had finally
broken down. When the tears ebbed, the hard shell armor fell away to reveal
this little boy struggling to find and accept himself. He held on to me
tightly and said, "Please don't tell anyone about what I told you here. It
would destroy me! I'm...I'm not ready for the world to know. I will do
anything as long as this secret remains between us."

I knew full well of everything he had done and he deserve to suffer a lot
more than what I had inflicted. But things are different now. Next to me
wasn't the arrogant bully but a lost child. I wanted to give him the chance
he never gave himself.

"I'll make you a deal," I said. "You saw me use my powers today and I know
your big secrets. How about we keep these things as our secrets? And since
I do need someone to talk to about my secret and you need someone to
confide in. How about we agree to confide in each other from now on?"

He just nodded his head while still buried in my chest. He held on to me
for the next hour before we had to leave and go home.
