“What the fuck, you trying to kill me. This looks like an iron maiden, what the hell.” I exclaimed as I saw the machine that would give me radiation poisoning or something.
It was a metal, in a bell shape, the opened up to a bunch of syringes. “Mattie, what the hell is this, I said radiation chamber not a god damn torture device.” Rose snapped. They looked as appalled as I did.
Mattie sighed, “Ah, sadly you didn’t fall for my fucking brilliant scheme. Fucking bitches.” I don’t know what his problem was, but he’s really bad at cursing. He snapped his fingers and the iron maiden was gone. It was replaced by a small room that sort of looked like an elevator that was abandoned before they put the flooring and buttons in.
“Ironically, I am listening to Iron Maiden.” Rose said.
“Shut the fuck up.” Mattie snapped.
“Dude, stop swearing. You don’t know how to curse. So, I say this in the most polite way possible, but shut the fuck up.”
“So,” I interrupted, those two were giving me a headache. “Are we getting on with this, or are we gonna swear at each other all day? I’d rather not do the latter, but maybe you would, so, by all means. Go ahead.”
Rose turned to me, giving Mattie a gesture suggesting he could stick his genitals up his ass. “Ah, you’re right, that’s on Mattie. We could do it, if Mattie would cooperate, but he’s not, guess I’ll just have to go shoot all those bullets that he made earlier. And into a concrete wall to.”
Mattie, hearing this, seemed to literally have fire in his eyes. “You will do no such thing. Fine, I’ll help you.” He seems to be very proud of his work.

“Ah, there we go. You’ll finally listen to reason.”
I have to admit, those two are really damn good at getting stuff done while still trying to kill each other with the power of words. Mattie turned away, walking towards what looked like some sort of control panel. He snapped his fingers, and faster than I can see, Rose was behind me. Where they stood, there was multiple swords and knife.
Rose put her hands on my shoulders and brought her face close to my ear. “H-h-help me. Please help me miss. This scary boy is tr-t-trying to kill me. Ah.”
Very calmly, I said, “Fuck you.”
“If that’s an invitation, then sure.” Rose remarked, but let go of me, and stepped back a bit. “Anyway, Mattie, you better be ready. If you aren’t your completely incompetent.”
Mattie made a beastly noise, something between a hiss and a growl. “Im fucking ready. Don’t fucking acuse me of being an incompetent little bitch.”
“Alright, alright. Jesus christ, chill. And learn how to swear.”
Mattie, walking over to Rose and I with a scowl, said “So, Sophie. Here’s the rundown of what this machine will do. Once I close the door it’s essentially a vacuum, so you won’t be able to breathe, however, the amount of radiation you need is minimal because of all the radiation you’ve accumulated since you’ve been around a lot of people with abilities. I’ll have Rose knock you out before the doors close, so don’t worry about suffocating. I mean, unless you wanna be conscious while you can’t breathe, but that sounds awful. I’ll then turn the radioton on, and you’ll absorb it. It’ll take about 30 seconds for it to be done.”
“You don’t really have to worry about dying of suffocation or anything, but there’s a small chance you could get radiation poisoning. At that point, I’d say just go kill youself cause it’s awfu-”
Rose cut Mattie off abruptly. “MATTIE, WE DO NOT TELL OUR FRIENDS TO COMMIT SUICIDE. WHAT THE HELL.”
Mattie made a hrumph noise and motioned to me to enter the chamber, and I did.
I stood directly in the middle, and I saw Rose approach me.
Then everything went dark.
