Perfect Match -16

You don't know when you lost consciousness, but you're woken up to soft tapping on your arm. Mike is trying hard not to jar your body, because he knows you're in pain. Even the slightest movement triggers a pounding in your head & sets your chest on fire. "Y/N? Y/N? I did it. I did exactly what you told me to do," Mike whispers.

You can barely open your eyes, "Mike?"

"Yea, Bill will be here soon. He'll come for you here. Your dad made the follow-up call and they left to meet up with your grandfather. He has no idea Bill will know it's a trap. It'll be easier to break in with most of the guys gone."

"You did good. Real good." Speaking those few words bring on a coughing fit. The pain alone makes you see stars, but the amount of blood that comes up scares you.

"Y/N??" Mike kneels down next to you. "Your...there's blood." You start to softly cry. You feel it. Internal bleeding. This just confirms it.

The door opens behind Mike, "What the fuck is going on here?"

"Get your hands off me! You pervert!" You try to muster up as much anger as you can. Mike has a look of shock & fear.

He turns to see the leer on Arthur's face and he catches on. Getting to his feet, "Shut the fuck up! Don't flatter yourself. You look like shit!" He pulls it off with just a slight waver in his voice.

"Look at you, little gangster. I ain't stopping you. Go ahead." Arthur walks further into the room.

"No way. I'm not messing with her while you watch, you sick fuck!""

Shoving Mike back, "Then get outta my way so I can have some fun."

"Dude, I'm not sure we should be doing this. Paulo gave us clear instructions. We aren't supposed to touch her. Him and Mr. Luciano will be back soon."

"Fuck them. She killed my brother!" Arthur takes out a knife & pulls your body closer to him. You scream in pain, thanking the darkness that begins to overtake you. You don't want to be conscious for what Arthur has in mind. But with a sharp slap cross the cheek, it drags you back to the present, "Don't pass out yet, bitch. I have big plans for you."

*****

Micro stayed behind to coordinate the attack on the house and to monitor the feeds to keep Billy & the team safe. Using the equipment Micro had, he was able to monitor live feeds from the site. Using the earpieces, Billy reminded everyone of their orders. "We shoot to kill. The only people in that house that doesn't get a bullet is Y/N & Mike. If she says he's innocent, I'll believe her. I can always kill him at a later date if he's lying to me. Understood?"

The house is easily found, the tiara is sitting on a hedge against the house. Billy has Frank & a couple of your grandfather's men with him. Your grandfather insisted on coming along, but agreed to stay with the cars until the house was secure. Micro was able to get old maps to the house, so we had the layout, but he also hacked into government satellite that can use infrared to determine how many people are inside & where. The plan of attack has been memorized. Billy is methodical on his missions.

As they are making their way to the house to get into position, Micro's voice comes over the communication device. "Fuck, Russo. You need to go now! The infrared reading for Y/N shows her temperature is flickering into a dangerously low zone. Plus, there is some asshole towering over her in a position that does not look appropriate."

So much for methodical, Bill rushes the door & kicks it open. Listening to the instructions in their ear, the team trusts Micro to guide them through the house.

Bill gets to your room, the door is open & he enters to see a gangly man being tossed across the room. Mike. Arthur is between your thighs digging through the layers of your wedding dress trying to get at you. Arthur hears Bill enter & picks up his knife. He recognizes immediately who he is & plunges the knife in your abdomen. Your scream matches the one torn from Bill's throat. Bill squeezes the trigger. Even through the red haze of fury clouding Bill's vision, his hand doesn't waver and his aim is true. The bullet leaves the gun & hits precisely in the center of Arthur's forehead.

Bill falls to his knees by your side. "Micro! Get that fucking ambulance in here now! She's dying. Oh, fuck...I can't lose her. She can't die!" Billy wants to touch you, to cradle you so that you know he's there, but not one part of you doesn't look damaged. Bill lets the others secure the room & the house & he lays on the floor curled up next to you, so you know he's there. That he came for you. He traces his fingertips against parts of your skin that isn't bruised or bloody. "Angel, I love you. Please don't leave me." he whispers into your ear before pressing his lips to your cold, cracked lips.

His eyes trail to the knife sticking out of you and he want to pull it out, but he knows he can't or you'll bleed out faster. His tears fall on your face as he watches helplessly as your breathing slows to a stop.

Before he can register what's happening, Frank has his arms wrapped around Billy, pulling him away. The paramedics arrived and immediately start working on you. They are able to stabilize you enough to move you. "We need to get her to the hospital straight away. We also need to contact her next of kin, as they will probably need permission for surgery."

"I'm her fiance. Today should have been our wedding day. Can I come in the ambulance, please?" Billy asks, unable to hide the desperation in his voice.

"Of course. I'm sorry to hear that, but unfortunately you are not legally her next of kin. What about her parents?"

Billy didn't even realize your grandfather was in the room. "They are not available or able to give consent. I am her grandfather. I have document proving I am her legal next of kin. I can get you it if needed." Billy looks at him in confusion, but with a subtle shake of his head, Billy remains silent, watching Enzo text his on-call forger. Bill knew that whatever documents needed will no doubt be at the hospital before they get there.

You're loaded on to the ambulance and Bill is quick to follow, but quickly remembers something. "Frank, get Mike over & look after him! Make sure no harm comes to him. Bring him to the hospital, ok?" Frank nods in confirmation before heading back towards the house to find him.

Bill straps himself into the ambulance, holding your hand. He spends the whole trip talking to you, telling you all about what you should have been doing right now. You both would be married, but not to worry because as soon as you're the slightest bit better, he'll be marrying his girl. That you needed to get better because there's a kitten named Ginger that needed you. That he needed you. It was like Billy had moved through life in black and white. Until he met You You brought color to his world. He doesn't want to go through it without you.

Billy setting up the trap for Frank to accidentally kill those women in S2E10 breaks my damn heart

i always see people talking about the scene in Daredevil where Frank kills that pawnbroker for offering him cp, and that Frank was thinking about his daughter Lisa, because of him saying “she’s barely 12”, the same age Lisa was when she died, and that is very much true and definitely part of it, but also think about the fact that Frank’s best friend of many many years, a person he was so close to, “the life or death kind of friend”, was a victim of csa at around the same age, and trusted Frank enough to tell him that. Think about how even before Frank became ‘the punisher’ and started killing regularly, he straight up offered to murder the person who’d done that to his friend.

So, of course, Frank was thinking about his daughter, and how much he hated the image of a girl her age experiencing that, he was probably also thinking about his best friend who did experience it.

[dhampiravidi]

every time Ben Barnes is given scars as makeup it’s like putting a dumb hat on a kitten—

it’s still cute. the cuteness has not passed.

[belle-keys]

the darkling in season 2 of s&b is just so funny to the punisher watchers

[punishwar]

someday i will get into and write just how much his friend, his brother, billy russo's betrayal blindsided him and its effects on him moving forward.

[celestialspecial]

If you're new to my writing- may I suggest starting with the story I'm most proud of :')

These Beautiful Torments

Recovering from the fight that has left him badly wounded both physically and mentally Billy tries to piece together the parts of his past. To remember who he is, or was, but it’s never that easy is it?

Warnings: Trauma, Depression, Eventual Smut, Violence, Unplanned Pregnancy- Canon? We don’t know her. (If i missed any feel free to let me know)

Writers Notes: Ok this is my first chapter testing the waters of an idea that I’d thrown out there a little while ago. Let me know if you like/want more- I have a few chapters planned but will determine if I continue it or not :) Love you all bunches. *cover image to come soon!

It was always the lights. Flashing. Blindingly bright. Music lilting in the background. And the taste of blood. Filling his mouth and dripping out onto the ground below. Then he saw the haunting visage, a skull, burned into his retinas, emblazoned under his eyelids by those damned lights.

Then he’d wake. Sometimes slowly but more often than not, jolted. Attempting to rise himself upright only to find his body strapped down to the bed he lay in. He was still here, in the hospital. How long had he been here? A sharp shooting pain streaked across his forehead, eyes scrunched shut pleading for the pain to cease.

Keep reading

Perfect Match - 15

It sounds so stupid, the dress being ruined as it already is, but to watch blood drops speckle it now, breaks your heart. You should be Mrs. William Russo by now if everything went as planned. You shouldn't be curled up in a ball on the ground trying not to die.

The punches and kicks continue to rain down on you. Turns out the guy you killed for planting a bomb in Billy's car has a brother. With your ankle shackled to the floor, you can't escape Arthur's blows.

Paulo & your father. You should have known! You knew you had recognized his voice! It was just harder to remember after being in a car wreck and having a gun pressed against your head. Paulo your father's choice in a husband for you. He will be the first one you kill after Arthur.

"Not so tough now, are you, Mafia Bitch? In what world did you think you could rule?" Ripping off your veil & tiara & grabbing you by the hair he pulls you up & forces you to kneel before him. Trying to jerk away from him only sets your scalp on fire. You wouldn't be surprised if clumps of hair will fall out.

Luckily, before he's able to hurt you more, the tall skinny guy enters the room. "What the fuck, man?! I thought the plan was we leave her alone. We aren't supposed to hurt her. Paulo & Mr Luciano will not like this!"

"I don't remember agreeing to anything like that. She deserves to be punished. This cunt murdered my brother!" Arthur goes feral and the skinny guy runs out of the room. Your feel like you're going to die at Arthur's hands. You feel & hear the crack of ribs. Your body is on fire. You try to curl in on yourself, to protect major organs from the kicks to your stomach.

The skinny kid returns with 2 men who you recognize as your father's captains. They pull him off you & drag him out of the room. You grew up with these men and they just let this psychopath beat the shit out of you. The list of people you want to kill is getting longer.

You open your eyes & see that the kid stayed in the room with you. He looks like he's about to shit himself. He's young, early 20ish, if that. He looks more scared than you do. "What's your name?"

"M...Mike Fontana," he whispers. You want to laugh. This is not the mastermind behind all of the threats.

"Who's calling the shot here?" He bites at a hangnail but stays silent. "I'm going to die here, you might as well tell me."

"No..no.. you can't die. You can't. That's not part of the plan."

"What's the plan?"

"Paulo is going to be mad."

"Michael!"

"Your dad! He doesn't want you to lead. He convinced me to be the face of this shit show, or he would take his revenge on me. I stole money from my father, but it turned out to be Mr Luciano's money. That's what got my father killed. It was me." He starts pacing wiping away tears or sweat, I can't tell the difference. "Your dad found out the truth & blackmailed me into doing this to work off my debt."

"Paulo will kill Russo to marry you. They think if Russo is out of the picture, you'll have no desire to rule without him. You'll leave it to Paulo & your father. He's going to suppress you any way he can. Worse comes to worse, he'd kill you and frame Bill. Then we all know your grandfather would end him.

The real enemy was my father this whole time. Michael mumbles an apology. "What's going to happen next?"

"They are luring your grandfather & Russo away to sign the papers to transfer New York to me and I have to give it over to your dad."

"Once you do that, he won't need you anymore."

"You think I don't know that?!" Michael is again on the verge of tears. "You can't say anything! You have to play along, or they'll end us all." Like hell I'm going to agree to marry Paulo. Fuck no! I'll kill him in his sleep the first chance I get. "Please don't say anything. I need to know I didn't make a mistake in trusting you. I just want to get out of this in one piece. I made a stupid mistake." He cries. This is not a criminal mastermind. He's just a scared kid.

"I promise I won't say a word, but you need to help me. If you do everything you can to help me and Billy get out of this alive, not only will i free you of whatever debt you owe my Family, I will secure you for life. You want a job, it's yours. You want money, it's yours, but we both need to survive."

"I'll do whatever I can, I promise. What can I do? Those paranoid fucks took my phone. I can't make a call. I don't have internet. "

"Are we near any traffic cams, CCTVs?"

Shrugs, "There's a market down the street.

You're unable to move because of the pain you're in, you make grabby hands at your veil that Arthur tore off your head. Michael brings it over to you & you untangle your tiara & give it to him. "Take this & hold it up in front of a CCTV camera...in the middle of the store. Make sure its visible along with your face. Hold up a sign with as much info on it as possible. Do you hear me? Then pull the firealarm & leave. Leave the tiara outside the house we are in. Visible to people outside, not them inside."

"I will try. If they catch me they'll kill me."

"Then don't get caught, kid."

*****

Billy & your grandfather with their perspective teams return to the townhouse to try and figure out where you are. The study becomes the business hub. Micro had this equipment there for the past few weeks trying to hunt down Michael Fontana. He's pounding away on his computers. Checking to see if any triggers went off on the traffic cams between your grandfather's estate & Hell's Kitchen.

Frank has kept an eye on Billy. "You love her. Like, this is real." Billy glares at Frank. "I mean, this happened real fast. This isn't like you. I never heard about her. Never met her and all of a sudden, you're going to marry her and head up a crime family. And now all this shit?"

"Yes it's real. It became real some time ago, but stupidly I never told her. I thought there'd be a perfect moment and it never came. I should have manned up and told her those 3 little words she was waiting to hear. She never got to hear them and I may never get to say it." Bill's voice broke.

Frank silently nods & claps him on the shoulder, "We'll get her back."

Billy shakes off Frank's hand & goes upstairs to your bedroom forgetting he had it filled with fresh flowers for when he brought you back home after the wedding reception. It hits him like a slug to the chest. Bill sits at the edge of the bed overwhelmed with sadness. He strips out of his tuxedo & changes into tactical gear. Tony did all of this to keep New York. He sacrificed his own child. His only child. He doesn't even realize that if he had just asked Billy to step aside and he could guarantee your life, Billy would have done it in a heartbeat. Hell, Billy would have shot himself if it meant you were safe. Now, Billy is consumed with hatred and rage.

*****

Billy's phone chirps. It's Micro. "Have you found her?" already running out the bedroom door to the Study 2 floors below.

"Not exactly but I think we have one hell of a clue. Get down here!" Billy races down the stairs to finding everyone in the study looking at Micro typing away. "So I set up alerts for everyone who might potentially be involved, Mike Fontana being one of them. Along with members of Tony's inner circle...known hangouts, safe houses, everything."

Micro throws a video onto the big screen hanging from the wall, "A few minutes ago, the alert for Mike got a hit. Facial recognition identified him in a local supermarket, so I hacked the CCTV to follow him, and this is what I saw."

A tall skinny guy enters the store, who definitely doesn't look like someone old enough to be messing with the Luciano Family. He walks to the middle of the store, looking straight into every security camera he sees in the store. He then stops & reaches into his hoodie pulling out 2 items. The first item almost brings Billy to his knees. The guy is holding the tiara. Overtaken by sadness, that should be on your head right now. His wife. In the other hand is a piece of paper. Micro zooms in & throws the image on another screen.

Y/N SENT ME

SHE NEEDS HELP NOW

FOLLOW THE TIARA.

I'M NOT YOUR ENEMY. T IS.

T IS GOING TO KILL BR

THIS IS NOT A TRAP. JUST A WARNING FROM Y/N

PLEASE HELP US.

That motherfucker!!!

The guy heads to the back of the market, leaving the paper on the shelf. Looking back at the camera like he's making sure you notice this. He pulls the fire alarm & leaves with the other shoppers.

"Where is he?!" Micro types in more commands & taps into a camera on the outside. They see the kid slowly walking back down the street until he's off screen. "Where'd he go?!"

"Sorry, man, there's no more cameras in the area. I tried looking for a personal feed, home owned cameras, doorbell...sorry, Bill."

Enzo interupts, holding his phone. "We got guys in the neighborhood. They got the note and we have an address."

Billy closes his eyes and shakes his head, a hint of a smile teasing his lips. "You're fucking brilliant, Angel. Hold on, i'm coming for you."

Ew! I'm throwing her out a window!😠

- I know it doesn’t feel like that now, but this is the best day of your life.

- Except that I’m crazy.

- You’re not crazy.

- No. I am. But you opened your front door to me anyway. Why would you do that to yourself?

- Because I hate beginnings. That awkward false state of everything. We never had to suffer that, you and I. We started in the middle, looking forwards.

Looking forward….
