7 7 Warmth... and Death

Wen was walking extremely slow. The cold affected him so much that he couldn't even whine anymore and it really concerned the doctor. He turned around setting Ethan onto the ground before facing the man.

He was panting really hard and his nose ears and fingers were bright red making the rest of his skin look even paler. The doctor grabbed his hands and warmed them up with his own, occasionally breathing hot air on them. Wen scooted closer to the warm man, "Feel a little better now?"

He felt Wen's head move up and down and let them stay there for a moment before he went to pick Ethan back up again.

They finally reached the building and the doctor knocked. No response.

'Man...' The doctor was really hoping he could find another live person. He opened the door anyway, wanting to get Wen to a warm place.

Inside looked very cozy, as expected. The brown couch in the center was slightly worn giving a homely look and the tan walls tied it altogether. Behind them was a fire place that seemed to radiate heat dispite being off, meaning someone had been here not long ago.

He led Wen to the couch and sat him and Ethan down. "Im going to see if they have blankets, ok?"

Wen nodded and leaned into Ethan but Ethan couldn't deliver the warmth that 'Labcoat' had. It was still something though.

Ethan didn't know how to react to this relevation. Having another person who he barely new, especially one who he was jealous of for stealing L's attention, snuggling up to him struck him weird and he couldn't even move or express his discomfort!

'L, please come back down soon.' Ethan cried in his mind. Luckily for Ethan, L did come back down the stairs holding 3 thick quilts. "Aw, you guys look so cute snuggled up together."

He watched as Wen's face distorted into disgust, moving away from the short man causing him to let out a light laugh. Wen's face got even more ugly when he heard the man chuckle.

Becoming serious once more, he put a blanket on each of them, giving Wen 2.

"Where's one for you?"

"I'm going to go somewhere. You stay here and keep warm, ok?"

Although Wen frowned, he nodded and curled up under his blankets. 'Labcoat' ruffled both of there heads before heading into the great outdoors.

Wen glanced at Ethan who was looking at him with a blank face. 'He's weird.' They both thought simultaneously. They sat in silence, occasionally glancing at each other.

They heard the door click and they both looked expectantly at the door or at least in Ethan's case, as expectant that he could look with a frozen face.

'Not him. It smells different... Smells different? When did I start smelling things like a dog.' Ethan froze up. Wen on the other hand was cluless so when the door fully opened, revealing the person, he almost cursed them out in disappointment.

It was a middle-aged blond-haired woman, when she saw the two young men on the couch she dropped the bags she was holding and covered her mouth, preventing her from making any loud noises.

"W-Who are you!?!" She pulled out a kitchen knife from her coat. "Where did you come from!?"

Ethan looked at Wen, waiting for him to respond since he couldn't but Wen looked at Ethan with the same expectations.

Seeing as the other wouldn't answer, they both turned to the middle aged woman. "Hello? Are you guys deaf?!" She branished the knife at them.

Wen shook his head and pointed to Ethan. "I'm not but I think he is."

Ethan couldn't even roll hid eyes. Wen continued to run his mouth, it seemed he was back to normal. Poking his fingers together, he gave off an innocent look, "Also, sorry for breaking in but we needed a warm place to stay."

Ethan nodded, trying to get the lady to put down the freaking knife. The lady eye'd Ethan weirdly. She stepped closer with the knife pointed at him. Wen noticed this and pulled Ethan towards his chest. "What are you doing!? Stay back!"

"HE'S CORRUPTED. YOU BROUGHT ONE OF THOSE MONSTERS INTO MY HOUSE!" She wailed after getting a good look at Ethan's eyes which were still glowing strong. Soon she was on the floor waving the knife at them both. "GET OUT, GET OUT, GET OUT!"

Her shrill cry sent shivers down Wen's spine. He hated the sound of screaming, especially when they screamed words. The more she wailed the more he got agitated. 'Shut her up, Shut her up for good.' His head was swimming and he didn't know what to do so he punched the lady in the face.

"MONSTER!" She slashed the knife at him, slicing his cheek. The only thing this achieved though, was stimulating Wen more. He plunged his hand into her neck and pulled.

A few crunchy noises later and her neck looked like a dog got to it.

At least she stopped making noises... right?

Ethan's eyes went wide while Wen was dazed. He had just ripped out someones bloody esophagus. Their blood rolled down his arms. Inside, Wen was panicking but on the outside, his face was calm, as if he had no emotions.

He placed the part he ripped out back on to the ladies neck but it just wouldn't stay. 'Oh my god, please for the love of all good food just stay. Labcoat will come back and think i'm a phycopath. He's gonna hate me and chase me out. Revive bit*h.'

In the end, Wen had gave up. Still holding the esophagus, he crawled back under the blankets staring at his bloody hands. "I'm so dead."

'Ya think' Ethan deadpanned, but without the words it didn't have it's desired effect. The short man honestly felt like vomiting his insides out after seeing someone's neck get ripped out so brutally. It was really gory.

'Mans is not ok.'

~~~( ºΔº"')~~~

The doctor came back and saw the door to the house was opened along with a strange metallic scent of blood entering his nose. "Strange..."

He stepped inside and that's when he saw it. His mouth dropped open in a dazed look as he took in the sights. A bloody mess on the floor. The blond ladies hair was stained red and blood just kept flowing from the ripped out section of her neck. L looked up at the two sitting on the couch like nothing happened.

He noticed a chunk of bloody flesh that was in Wen's grip. "Do I even want to know?"

Wen dropped his head while Ethan shook his own.
