Sorry to add something really sad onto your heartwarming Dave WIP. It’s the only thing I’ve written recently that’s not the main fic I’m currently working on (icttwya).
I’ll explain the context of the scene afterwards
To anyone who likes Klaus I apologise for this lol
TW// Graphic Depictions of Violence, Descriptions of Injury, Head Injury, Blood Mention, Major Character Death (mentioned)
Diego didn’t think before his hands wrapped around the metal pole discarded on the ground. He leapt to his feet with the speed of a cheetah and lunged forward, weapon raised to swing. Five’s head snapped towards him, fear flickering in his eyes as the metal collided with the side of his head, sending him sprawling to the ground with a yelp, nose smashing into the concrete with a harsh crack.
“You fucking traitor!” Diego screamed, tossing the pole to the ground and striding forward.
Five’s hands flew to the ground from where they were cradling his head and he scrambled backwards away from him. “Diego—” he groaned, what sounded like desperation soaking his voice. Blue sparked around his wrists but the space around him barely rippled, energy dissipating quickly.
Diego didn’t falter, advancing forward with haste and removing the last knife from his holster, holding it high above his head. He grabbed Five by the collar of his t-shirt and hoisted him up into the air, slamming his back against the wall. Five clawed weakly at his grip, the blood on his hands smearing onto Diego’s. Diego felt sick.
“You— you monster.” he growled. “Why did you do it?”
Five’s shoulders shook, eyes glossy and wet. A humourless laugh tumbled out of his mouth like the blood trickling out of his nose.
“Answer me!” Diego shook him. Five’s head lolled forward like a rag doll, gasping. “Why did you do it?” Diego’s lips trembled, eyes watering. “W-w-why?”
A panicked laugh bubbled out of Five’s throat. “I don’t know.” he whispered, eyes wide and manic, hot tears dripping down his face. Diego’s eyes drifted down to the blood staining his white t-shirt.
Rage boiled Diego’s blood. “You don’t kn-kn-know?” he panted, anger clouding his mind. “You fucking k-ki—” he choked, a fire building in his chest. He yelled, bringing the knife down fast towards Five’s neck.
Five flinched, eyes widening with fear. “Wait!” he shrieked. “Diego, please!” his hands shot up to protect himself, eyes wide with panic, tears dribbling out the corners. “Don’t!”
Diego hesitated, knife shaking in his hand, mere inches away from Five’s neck.
“It wasn’t me!” he sobbed, “It wasn’t me! I didn’t— I couldn’t—”
“You’re covered in his b-blood you piece of sssshit!” Diego retorted. It was weaker than he would have liked.
Diego had watched Five murder Klaus in cold blood.
Basically the story is that Five gets mind controlled by someone from The Sparrow Academy and they make him brutally murder Klaus in front of Diego. And Diego is understandably very upset about it. It’s quite sad.
Basically if you have a WIP or part of one that you’d like to share then you can!
