Ali and the hero's brother

June 6th, 2023

"Hmm now that I wrote that to everyone in the family, who else should I write?" Ali said to himself as he tried to finish bandaging his wound on his right hand.

His handwriting was already shitty and now due to his hand being numb and wounded, it's only become worse than before.

"Let's just hope they can at least understand something out of it."

"After all, it ain't that bad. You would have understood it, right, Chuck? " Ali kicked and asked the zombie, who was pressed under his feet.

-Raaauuughhhh-

-burre hehuuhh grruhhr -

"What the fuck are you saying Chuck. I can't understand shit." Ali said as he kicked him one more time. His leather shoes breaking a few bones in the now dried up undead.

-grugahgrhh-

"Are you cursing me, you bastard?" Ali said after seeing the glaring eyes and open mouth of the zombie. "Your mouth's quite dirty huh. It needs a thorough cleaning right? Here "

Ali said and pushed his shoe into the mouth of his captive zombie, breaking a few of his teeth by pressing it more.

"You're probably wondering why is this handsome guy being so mean to me. I'm such a good little boy."

"Well, the fault's not yours, Chuck. Is it okay if I call you Chuck. Cause I don't even remember your name right now."

-krugarghh-

"So where was I, ahh I was saying why I'm being so mean to you. I kidnapped you, tortured you, and then instead of letting you go, I turned you into a zombie too. Now why is that?"

"You see, I'm not a bad guy, in fact I'm a really nice guy. But you know, I had a friend, a best friend kinda friend, who was almost like a brother to me."

"And I'm saying almost not because I didn't like him, but because he beat me a little too much a few times so I'm not giving him that role."

"I mean I only investigated him and hired a guy to track his girlfriend who left him alone, that's all. Now that's no reason to beat me senseless, is it?" Ali said, reminiscing about the past with a smile.

"He also used to get angry at me and ignore me for days straight sometimes, but other than that, he was a perfect person."

"And your big brother, your lovely Kevin, he killed him." Ali said with a cold smile "Can you believe that, he fucking killed him. Right in front of me."

"You know I can still remember the look of pain and relief in his eyes. I can still feel the way his body started getting cold and heavy, the more time passed." Ali said as he looked at his hands, with his eyes lost in thoughts like he was relieving the moments of his past again.

He then closed his fists in anger and said - "That was the first time I saw someone close to me die. It felt _ horrible. Like you can't imagine hell kinda horrible. Maybe because it was so unexpected that it took me a while to get used to the reality."

"But when I did, I swore that I would kill your brother. That I would give him the most painful and the cruelest of death possible."

"But guess what."

"That son of a bitch is so lucky, that the world went to shit just at the moment when I was about to shoot him in the head."

"Can you believe it, the coincidence of that level. It was like some freaking god out there wanted to pamper him."

"But I didn't give up."

"No. No. No."

"When I woke up again after that freaking wave knocked everyone out, I hunted him down, and I finally found him.

But guess what, this time, the love of my life stood in front of me to save him."

Ali said and started laughing loudly "Hehehaha"

"She took his side. The side of a guy whom she met two days ago, over me. Over someone who followed her for two decades. Who loved her f_for two decades. Can you believe that, Chuck?" Ali said as he clenched his fist and bashed them on the back of 'Chuck' in anger.

The loud growling sound of the zombie rang out, but Ali ignored that and punched his back again.

"Do you know how that felt? How much it hurt. My body's almost numb after I got bitten, and it still freaking hurts." Ali said.

"Do you know where? How?"

"Let me show you so you can understand." Ali said and turned Chuck over. He picked a sharp knife and plunged it deep in his stomach area, and dragged it along. Carving his skin, and cutting open his chest.

Once he felt it was enough, Ali threw the knife aside and pushed his hand through the open wound.

'Chuck' growled and moved around, flailing his hands, trying to bite him, but Ali ignored all his struggles. As he kept trying to push his hand inside, pushing away Chuck's muscles and meat.

"Found it." Ali muttered as he finally found Chuck's heart. The feeling of heart beating and pumping blood, the slimey touch and the gooey liquid - it was all making him sick, but he ignored it all.

He started exerting pressure and crushing it. It slipped from his hands sometimes, but he kept doing it, again and again.

-grughhlrr-

-kkurkellllrrh-

"It felt like this, Chuck. Like someone's crushing my heart and breaking it apart. Like a sharp knife is plunged into it, or a mountain is pressing over it."

"Can you feel it too, Chuck?"

"Does it hurt?"

"Do you feel it's better to die than to live in this agony?"

"Don't worry. I feel it too. But I can't die. Not yet, not until I kill your brother."

"So now that you know everything, you can go ahead in peace. I'll send your brother behind you, so you won't feel lonely down there in hell."

Ali said and pulled his heart out with all his strength.

Ali watched as Chuck growled louder and louder, attracting some other zombies to walk towards them. Yet he ignored them and kept watching. Watching as Chuck stopped struggling and finally lay still. Dead.

"I wanted to use you to lure him out and then kill him. I would've even let you go afterwards. But then I thought, fuck it. Let's just settle you first and then kill him directly. Lest some stupid luck comes to play again and I end up losing you too."

"I did the right thing, right Noah." Ali said, as he picked up the knife, and pulled the bracelet and chain from his dead body as souvenirs.

"Ahh I finally remembered your name Chuck. It was Noah right.

Kevin and Noah - what a nice pair of names."

##

A/N - yes, no need to say it. I know it's gonna be about Noah and Kevin - I hate these names and that's why these names appeared in both my novels. And people with these names will be killed through a brutal death.

Shiva did it and now Ali did it too - aren't they besties. 🥲 (don't piss me off and give me nice reviews, or I might add you in this list)

Just kidding , or am I
