'Broken Image' ♡ (MXM) ♡

- get out -

Rosamee had to be the person he did care for the most. But she was gone, did he have anyone else? Did he have someone he would follow around like a little puppy? Protect, maybe take them somewhere safe?

Safe?

He would have to keep them away from himself if he wanted them safe. Maybe he could run away with them? All Pierce would want out of a so-called "lover" was to never be away from them. He would hold onto that person for the rest of his life, he couldn't live without them.

The person he would do so with was already dead. He failed in protecting her. No other person would match what she was for him. He had no one else that could match her.

The villain was in thought when he noticed that his door was pushed open. He was upstairs, looking down from the stairs he walked down to meet who he knew was already there. Mercy walked in, looking around the place for someone.

Pierce gave a small smile, whistling lightly to get her attention. The woman looked up, shaking her head as she made her way to him. She didn't even bother to look at the fridge the moment she came in. The villain took that in, giving his friend a questioning look.

"You don't look hungry." He stated.

"Far from it actually." Mercy shook her head, recalling the events she witnessed while in the warehouse. "I was with Felix. Your siblings came over to make a deal with him about the drugs."

"The poison?" Pierce corrected.

"Yeah yeah, the poison." Mercy shook her head before continuing. "Your older siblings bought some from him, they plan on selling them to the neighboring towns around the cities for profit. They have your mother in on it, they wanna sell it to other small areas before bringing them to the industrial cities."

The explanation wasn't too big a shocker for Pierce. He expected his mother was making the older siblings do something so stupid. Even if it did work, these cities are too good at catching drug traffickers. His family was incredibly stupid, his mother mostly, she got stupider the more she thought she had everything.

Mercy waited for Pierce to reply with the information, Pierce didn't have anything to reply with, he turned to her with a shrug.

She shrugged back, "so?"

"So.. I don't care?"

Mercy gave a sigh filled with annoyance. "Really? I thought you would at least make fun of them, or take it for yourself. The drugs will make someone millions if they use it correctly."

"I made fun of them in my head." Pierce gave a short reply, turning around before heading back upstairs.

Mercy jogged after him. "Hey, give me something. I have more stuff that I learned about."

"Good for you." Pierce replied, opening his room door.

Mercy shoved the door away when it swung back to hit her face. "Really? What are you on about?"

Pierce gave her a look. Mercy scoffed in his face, "are you mad I have been staying with Felix instead of you?"

It was Pierce's turn to scoff. He gave her a chuckle. "Oh please, I could care less what you decide to do. I don't need you."

"You sound like Rosamee."

The villain stopped. Turning to face her, his smile was completely gone. "Do I?"

"You think I'm oblivious don't you?" Mercy shook her head. "I know more about your relationship with her than you do. I see it all Pierce, the way you treated one another."

"Shut the fuck up." Pierce glared at her.

Only Mercy shook her head, a smile forming on her face as she continued. "I mean, how toxic you two were. Rosamee especially! She hit you how many times? And you still fucking love her?"

"Mercy.." Pierce took a step towards her.

"You call the hero weak all the time, but don't you think that you're the really pathetic one here?" Mercy took a daring step forward, watching as Pierce took in information. His expression changed every second.

Taking in Rosamee's and Oxzys name all at once, his body began to grow hot, it got hotter. Flames began to grow on his shoulders, smoke came from his burnt top.

"So pathetic that you have to rely on Oxzy to keep you stable."

Pierce gritted his teeth, turning his head down he honestly had nothing to say back. What Mercy said was overall true. He did rely on Oxzy more than he should, the hero was the only reason the town was still functioning. Pierce didn't know what he would do without that man.

Turning his head away, Pierce gave a low growl, "go back to Felix. I could just run off to Oxzy to cure my loneliness."

Mercy gave a laugh, her eyes filled with shock. "Are you fucking serious?"

"Yes!" Pierce turned around slightly to look at her. Fire came from beside him, flaming up into the roof of his house in a short exhaust. The fire was a burst, disappearing as soon as it came.

Mercy took a step back, looking around to see where the fire had gone. Her eyes then looked back at the man in front of her. The words were not denying what she had stated, he knew they were true. As did she.

That pissed her off more. The fact that Pierce knew how much he needed the hero. He needed him more than he needed her.

"Leave Mercy."

The woman growled in annoyance, shutting her eyes, she turned to the stairs. "FINE. Fucking think about that damn man all you want! I don't need you either!" Walking down the stairs, she turned to the door before exiting. Slamming the wood, her legs quickened. She wanted to run away from that damn place.

The place where she and the villain spent years together. She knew him more than that hero. Why would he choose him and not her? She would have told him more about the plan Felix wanted to do to the hero, but now. She wanted nothing more than to see his face when he loses everything.

He deserved it.

Oh no, Mercy...
