Jesper is...

LANCE

I hoisted him up. Jesper is evidently weak. I can't tell what happened to him if I can't clearly see his wounds. But my heart is ramming against my chest.

I have a bad feeling about this. Warm miwuid flooded my hands. Dripping into my shoes and legs. The metallic smell sticking to my nose is so familiar, it feels like I've sniff the same scent as of this one few moments ago.

We stepped into the light.

That's when everything stop spinning. Jesper's head is bleeding. Very bad. Like the skull in his nape is waving 'happy blood red Christmas' to me.

His stomach is one step closer from spilling out his guts. The color of blood matches the blood in his brother's and father's traces of blood sleeves.

I grind on my teeth. Too hard my gums are bleeding...How could - how could these monsters get away with this?

Blood is thicker than any family they say? So this is the 'way' how they manage to control Jesper into doing what they want.
