Scarleton Series I : Before the Cult
agreed.
    “You see that
is why we are, Jay. I am not human. I don’t belong here,” I
shrugged, “We both know it. That is why you gave me a hard time.
That is why we need you to be our little Jesus today.”
    The calling
stronger than ever, I stared down at my feet. Lifelings are
creatures devoid of tolerance. They deserve anything lesser than
mercy because they never grant it either.
    “I am gonna
kill you, Sandy, when I get down. Even in my death, I swear to God,
I am gonna make sure I make your life a living hell,” Jay
threatened.
    I disappointed
him with my bland incongruent response. “If you were somebody else,
another student, I would have been kinder, but you see it’s people
like you that don’t deserve that. If not all of you lifelings .” I paused. “Tell me. What would you do to be home
right now, Jay? To see your parents or your loved ones? To go back
the res? Or whatever shit you’re into? I hear moments like these
make people ponder how they have lived their lives and usually they
discover what matters most or what mattered most. I know that you
have that thing in your mind, tell me what would you do right now
to get out of this situation?”
    “Everything,”
he pleaded, his face sweating with desperation.
    “Tell me, Jay.
Who likes desperate people?”
    “Uh-um. No
one,” he mused, his breath trembling under the weight of fear.
    “Why are you
being so desperate then? Chill out, man.”
    “Okay. Yeah,
whatever you want man.”
    I sighed.
“Whatever I want? Fuck, what did I say about being fuckin’
desperate, Jay? “
    “Nobody likes a
desperate person. I’m sorry. “He spluttered.
    “Fuck, man!
This is so hopeless. Now you’re sorry?”
    “I don’t know
what you want me to do, okay! Fuck, man. You’re messing with me!”
He bawled.
    “Good. I
imagine your balls.” I mused.
    “My balls?” He
asked, confused.
    “You would give
your balls to see your family again, wouldn’t you?”
    He stayed quiet
for a while. “I guess so.”
    “It’s either
you know or you don’t!” I grabbed his ball sack. He whimpered and
trembled, eyes tightly shut. “If you are not sure make up your mind
real quick.” Placed the blade of my folding knife on the base.
    “Shhhhiiit!” He
shuddered and gasped. “ Uhhh…give me…give me some time, okay? Just
a few seconds, please!”
    “Fuck. You’re
not losing your balls just answer the goddam question, okay? “I
replied in exasperation.
    “Okay. Yes, Yes
I would!” He cried.
    “Good. Very
good, Jay. Now I can move on.” Pause.” You see, Jay, I wanna go
home too. Where I truly belong. To the fields and the crop. We are
going to film your face while you die to solve the transition
puzzle I suppose. So is be a good genie pig, okay?”
    “Is this some
kind of a morbid cult?” He scowled, incredulous.
    “Do you know
anything of the crop, Jay?”
    “No. What the
fuck is that?”
    “If you do just
tell us.”
    “No, I
don’t.”
    I examined him.
“Swallowing tough news like a man, huh? Trying too hard not to seem
desperate? Good boy! Your eyes are big. We will be able to make out
all you will see.” Pause. “Oh, Jay, I have been waiting so long for
this. The compulsion was just too much, or shall I say the
calling?” I found my face warmed with a grin, thinking of how it
was all worth the wait and trouble.
    His brow
greased, clearly confused.
    “Let me do the
honours, today,” I asked Macfearson.
    “I will give
you a chance, but I’m still the one who gets to spit his skull when
you are done,” He spoke with enthusiasm, like a kid about to have a
slice of his birthday cake.
    This was the
day, my holy fucking day.
    “As long as I
get to shove the barbed wire dildo into his ass.”
    Macxermillio
added, “Love me some painul!”

    The sun shone
through the windshield as it drowned into the horizon. It rather
drown than grace such monstrosities like us with its warmth. That
we respected, that we expected. The dirt road
