A Witch's Destiny - Ch. 5

"Leave Brad alone, you could've taken me only!" Diane shouted.
The purple shadow guy ignored her, and chained Brad up to a wall.
"Stupid shadow creatures," she muttered. "Where's your stupid boss!"
"Right here," and he came out of the shadows. He's like four inches taller than Diane, his ginormous muscles flexed, his short purple hair is scattered everywhere, and his orange eyes examined Diane's body. "What do you want, witch?"
"You don't need to drag people into our business. Brad doesn't need to be part of this." she hissed.
"Well, Brad is part of you. I know you won't listen to me, so I'll hurt Brad to hurt you." he smirked.
"You bastard!" she screeched.

"I prefer to be called Brett, but bastard would be fine." he walked up to her and touched the chains. "You'd be better on the dark side than the humans side. I'd give you anything you like; money, power..."
"What about friends, the sunlight, Brad!" she quickly said, "You'd never give me those."
He quickly got annoyed and headed to the door, "don't worry, I'll be back in a few; and you won't like what's coming!" he deeply said and left.
Brad! Wake up! she thought.
My head hurts, his eyes started to flutter, What's wrong?
I don't know what he's going to do with me. I need to kill him, or something!
A long silence passed by them. Diane can feel him thinking.
Diane, if I can get you free, you run. Don't come back for me.
No! she cried out. I won't do that, you're everything to me, including my powers. I'm going to get you out of here.

She focused her mind and the lock unlatched for both of them. Diane ran over to Brad to help him up.
"Diane." Brad smiled, and she smiled back.
"You witch!" Brett said loudly and headed towards them.
Diane's eyes turned yellow and casted a force field around her and Brad. Her fingers intertwined with Brad's, feeling his powers flow through her body. Holding Brad's body close to her, almost a hug. Then anger flared through her.
Flames bursted throughout the room. The flares jumping spot to spot, getting closer to Brett.
"What the hell?" Brett muttered.

Brad's grip on her hand tightened and the flames and forcefield disappeared. Diane placed her head in his shoulder and started to cry.
"I can't hurt anyone." she softly said.
"Shh, don't worry," he whispered and glared at Brett. "She may be soft, but when you piss around with me and my girlfriend, things become personal." he growled.
"I don't care if she's soft or ruff! she's in my way to world destruction, and I'll kill her." Brett angrily said and walked towards them again.
This time Brad got up, and his powers tingled out of his body. Brett backed away quickly.
"It's impossible, you're as strong as her!" Brett harshly said. "I'll meet you again, witch!" and he disappeared.

Brad helped Diane up off the floor. She smiled.
"Thanks Brad. We need to get back to Dark City to talk to Thomas and Logan."
"Yeah. I need their help before I kill that Brett. He's annoying."
Diane laughed and hugged Brad, "You're joking."
"No, I'm not. He need to be stopped."
Diane looked away and sighed. Brad held her and used his powers to disappear.
