Fire Baptized
“The stench made me sway as I worked, cutting the wires and releasing Gabe’s body parts, one by one.
“La La, please just talk to me.” MeShack paced.
I’d positioned a four-foot fire wall between us, because he kept trying to stop me. Lifting Gabe’s fingers, I counted each one and dropped them in the large metal tub in front of me. The murky liquid sloshed and splashed against the tub’s walls. An arm floated to the top.
“Just put the fire down,” MeShack pleaded.
“You tried to stop me.”
“Because yo...u’re rearranging a corpse!”
“It’s Gabe,” I said, as the buzzing in my head continued. I hit the side of my face, hoping to stop the noise. Blood sprinkled on my neck and shirt.
“Yes, it’s Gabe,” MeShack muttered. He raised his hands to his head, fisted large lumps of his hair, and then let go. “Fuck. I need to find Ben, but I can’t leave you like this.”
“I’m fine.”
I had a task. Tasks are important. And I had fire. Fire wasn’t like life—it was simple.MoreLess
