The Gental Giant Part II Preview

Suddenly you heard a loud banging noise coming from somewhere, jolting you out of your deep sleep. The sudden noise nearly made you jump out of bed, making your heart race in the process.

Quickly, you looked over at your alarm clock. 2:28 AM. You let out a very deep sigh, as you threw off the blankets and got out of bed. The banging grew louder and louder as you came out of your bedroom. It was coming from your apartment door.

Who the fuck would be banging on your door at this hour? At this point, you felt very cautious at who was at your door. Slowly, you tipped toed over to the door to look through the peephole.

Nobody there. This is very strange, even to you. Without thinking, you raised your hand up and began to unlock the deadbolts. You left the chain in place, for safety purposes whenever you’ve opened the door.

Slowly, you began opening the door a little bit. Light from the hallway came in through the crack of the doorway as you opened it. Before you could look through to see who it was, something heavy and fast crashed into it with you still behind.

You flew backwards and crashed into the end table next to the couch. A searing white, hot pain surged through your whole body as you felt broken shards of glass against your back. A tall dark shape stood over you, breathing heavily.

“Finally found you bitch,” the voice said. It sounded very familiar, but you couldn’t place it. As you tried to stand up on your two feet, something small and sharp jabbed straight into your upper arm near the shoulder. You gave out a small cry.

Lifting your other hand up, you touched the mysterious object and sent a shock through your whole body. It was a small syringe. You took it out quickly and tossed it across the room. All of a sudden, your whole body began to go numb.

Then you fell back to the floor and landed on your side. Whatever was injected into you, it worked very fast to knock you out like a light. The shadow figure walked over to you, grabbed your ankles, and started to drag you across the floor.

You felt the broken shards of glass dig deeper into your skin as you were dragged across the hardwood floor. Like tiny needles being pushed deeper and deeper into you. Every inch was getting weaker and weaker.

Without warning, you were thrown from the floor and onto something smooth and soft. You quickly found it was your bed. You were dragged into your bedroom, but for what reason? Your vision began to blur, losing focus on the figure.

“Finally,” the figure spoke, “after two fucking whole weeks, I’ve found you at last. It took awhile, but it was fucking worth it.” The voice said with so much glee. It sounded proud of itself. You started drifting away a bit, but you stayed awake. Both eyes fluttering open and closed. 

Suddenly, you felt something sit down at the edge of your bed pulling you down almost. “I don’t know if you still remember me. It feels like forever, but it’s only been two weeks.” the voice said. You felt cold and rough fingers run up and down your neck gently. Then you felt a gloved hand grab ahold of your neck and began choking you.

The figure laughed in a sinister, playful way as you felt your airway being crushed. It felt very familiar. Then your memory started to rush back from that night. The night that it happened. It was the one that caught you before you could get away safely.

Charlie. The younger brother. The one that was about to get even with you after you pepper sprayed his older brother Terry in the eyes to let you go. He was going to do something worse to you, until showed up and stopped them both in time.

This time is different. This time, Bane won’t come and rescue you for the second time. You felt your heart stop a couple of times when that thought kept on racing through your mind. Then you felt a rush of air return to your breathless throat. Feeling his hand leave your poor neck alone.

You began coughing and hacking as the air rushed back into your lungs. Numbness took over your body, as you couldn’t move a muscle. Whatever he stuck you with, really worked fast. It felt like you were floating on thin air. Floating freely in a way.

 “Do you remember Terry,” he continued on, “my older brother?” He asked with a serious tone in his voice. Since you couldn’t move much of your body, you slightly nodded your head yes. “Good. He’s dead, because of you.” He was getting more angry now.

Dead? How and when did this happen? All thoughts went straight to Bane. Bane nearly snapped the guy’s neck in two like a toothpick, the way he was holding him. But, is that possible to happen?

“If you thinking it was your lord and savior Bane that killed my brother. No, it wasn’t him. Do you know what really happened to him,” his voice was getting more and more serious now. Still not being able to move, you shook your head no back and forth slowly.

“After we got back to the group, our Commander was fucking pissed off for coming back all beat up and empty handed. When the both of us told him about Bane, he got so fucking scared. Anybody that crosses paths with him is a fucking goner. Both my brother and I tried to explain, but he wouldn’t hear us out. We were kicked out. Nobody stuck up for us either. Soon after, we were left to fend for ourselves in the desolate streets of this fucking city. We had no shelter, no food, and no place to sleep. He died days later, because of his injuries. Because of you, I watched my own flesh and blood painfully die in the streets and not in our shelter.”

All of a sudden, you were struck across the face with a big blow and you gave out a sharp cry. “I WATCHED MY OWN BROTHER DIE AND IT’S ALL YOUR FUCKING FAULT YOU BITCH,” he yelled staright in your face, as you could smell alcohol from his foul breath. Tears began to stream down your face now. A sharp pain began to form on your face where you were struck.

“Now,” he went back to a normal tone, “now, this is where I get even with you.” You felt him on top of you now, crawling over your limp body. “Forget eye for an eye. I’m going to do something much worse to you and you won’t escape me this time.”

He bent himself down and whispered something into your ear. The words cut deep as shock went through your whole body. You began sobbing softly and uncontrollably, as you clutched onto the bed sheets.

“I’ve made it much easier for myself by sedating you, so that you don’t fight me and run off  like last time,” he said as he lifted himself off of your body. You felt him grab ahold of your sweatpants and began pulling them down your legs slowly.

A cold shiver went down your spin as you felt his hands run up and down your bare legs. He was going to violate you and your body. You continued to sob, with tears blurring your vision now.

He got off the bed once again and stood at the foot of it. “Don’t you worry. Once I’m done with you, you’re going to be my property and nobody else’s.” He said as he started to unbuckle his pants.

When he was distracted with what he was doing, there was the sound of heavy footsteps. The same sound you heard that night and it was followed by heavy, raspy breathing. Your heart began to race as that sound became all too familiar with. 

Your vision was blurring out from the tears, as a hulking, dark figure stood at the door frame of your bedroom. You couldn’t make a sound, as your mouth gaped open like a fish. Slowly, he stepped through the threshold of the doorway and behind the man that was going to violate you.

As he was about to pull his pants down, the dark figure grabbed him from behind and wrapped his large arms and hands around the man’s neck and face. He began to struggle as he tried to pry himself free from the figure’s harsh grasp.

“What have I told you little mouse,” he said through his mask, wrapping his large hands around his face, “about meeting again like this.” The sound of bone crunching broke through the silence and then there was a loud snap, as his head was twisted backwards. Soon after, the body dropped to the floor like a child’s rag doll.

“Now, see what you made me do. I did something unpleasant,” his voice began to fade away as the sedative took over the rest of your body, knocking you out finally. Darkness now covered your eyes.

Finally. Here's the preview of part II for The Gentle Giant. I was originally going to do it over the holidays, but visiting family and work kept me busy for a while.

So, part II is going to take much longer to write out since I still need to play catch up with other requests.

However, my inbox is back open for a limited time for Valentine's Day prompt requests which I will link below. If you want to make a request for something else, please do so. January 28th is going to be the last day for requests until I reopen my inbox for the next character list.

Compact Digicam Guide

Features to Look For In a Digital Camera For Travel Photography. Update: The initial model of this evaluation didn't give correct credit to the Panasonic DMC-TS1's video capture, which not only also shoots 720p video, however allows optical zooming while doing so. The Panasonic Lumix LX15 is high-end, however, critically, comes minus the very best-finish price level. With its 58 sq mm dimension..about 1\2 the scale of a 1 inch sensor and far bigger than the great 1 1.7 sensors of the fanatic class a couple of yrs in the past. Point-and-shoots are engaging because of their small measurement and do-all functionality, however they've limitations from an optical best point and shoot camera perspective. This Nikon Coolpix L830 is doubtless top-of-the-line point and shoot cameras ever produced. A few of these housings are backwards suitable with the RX100 IV as effectively. This digital camera actually has best point and shoot camera no nasty surprises to it. It takes excellent photographs and respectable video, is a superb performer, nicely-constructed, great ergonomics, and has a straightforward to use interface. It's bought an excellent liveview mode too, helpful for those making the leap from compact cameras or smartphones, with responsive subject monitoring for sharp pictures of moving topics. While it's a lot thicker than a smartphone, the LX10 can nonetheless slip easily into a relaxed-fit denims pocket. Moreover, S9900 presents digital vibration discount which removes consequences of digital camera shake making the photographs smoother and more correct. All in all, Canon's new mirrorless digicam guarantees to be among the best available on the market, though we'll have to wait and see. Refine Your Outcomes By: Store Cameras + Camcorders. And the cherry on prime: the FZ1000 is among the solely cameras on this listing that shoots 4K video. All in all, the Samsung Galaxy Digital camera 2 is basically like a sensible phone that is traded its potential to make phone calls for the ability to take respectable quality pictures. It's going to still be notably higher than your smartphone, and packs a 32x zoom, small size, and simple to make use of touchscreen. Further features, equivalent to movement blur discount (which reduces digital camera shake), and HD video recording (720P) make this a fantastic buy and comfortably among the finest compact cameras accessible for under £one hundred. So I took the plunge and purchased the Fujifilm X20 and I used to be happy with my purchase for some time but then Fujifilm released the X30. While the DSCWX350 is our favorite digicam at this worth point, the Powershot SX620 definitely runs it close. I have been serious about shopping for a camera with giant sensor (eg. The Olympus is much cheaper than the Canon above regardless of its excellent CMOS sensor. Option to make use of touchscreen show for framing photos or using the viewfinder. Thanks to those features—combined with two lens rings, a thumb dial, and a number of other buttons on the rear of the digicam—you'll hardly ever have to burrow into the digital camera's menu to change settings. In digital photography, ISO refers back to the sensitivity of the camera's sensor, or how much gentle it absorbs in a given period of time. I usually travel to photograph wildlife and I would like a succesful zoom lens, which is why I hesitated about switching fully to mirrorless. As an additional advantage, you'll receive FREE worth transport on a big selection of non-eligible ShippingPass objects. Users can even add pictures from almost wherever through their suitable iOS® or Android gadget with the obtain of the free Canon CameraWindow app. It is one thing of a worth jump shifting as much as the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS25, and for that you simply get... mainly the identical specs as the Canon. Shutter response is near-immediate, by the way, so you've gotten a great chance of catching whatever shot you've got scrambled to seize. The RX100 V packs a exceptional function set into a pocketable camera, supplied you could have sizable pockets. Due to this fact, if a photographer has a movie SLR digicam, full with lenses, the change to the DSLR is generally an easy one.
