"WHAT THE FUCK WERE YOU THINKING?" Reaching an arm across his chest Dave balled his fist and with all the force he could muster brought it back around connecting with the cheek of the smaller man in front of him. "HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU NOT TO TOUCH MY BITCH?!" Hissing loudly Dave felt his fangs come out as he brought the same fist forward again this time connecting with little Matthew Hardy's right eye.

"YOU JUST DON'T LISTEN DO YOU!" Dave's body trembled as he picked up Matt and tossed him back into the wall behind him purring happily when Matt's head bounced off with a sickening thud. "I HAVE TOLD YOU TIME AND TIME AGAIN! BUT YOU JUST DON'T GET THE PICTURE!" Grabbing him from the wall Dave slammed him back again then leaned forward and screamed loudly in his face. "THEY DON'T BELONG TO YOU ANYMORE!! NONE OF THEM! YOU ABUSED THEM AND NOW YOU LOSE THEM!"

Not pausing to think Dave lifted Matt from the wall again and tossed him across the room hoping to give himself a little time to calm enough so that his play wasn't ended too soon. Landing against another wall Matt crumbled to the floor and could barely focus enough to see that he'd landed at someone's feet. Stupidly he raised a hand and touched the denim covered leg of the unknown person. Easily though the faceless man kicked connecting with Matt's cheek throwing him around to land on his back.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOINGGGGGG?" Dave raged and lunging across the room picked Matt up holding him up with one hand while he drove the other into Matt's midsection repeatedly satisfied with the crunches he heard with every blow. " WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO TO GET IT THROUGH YOUR THICK SKULL?" Pulling his hand away from Matt's throat Dave watched again as the smaller man crumbled again to the floor now crying pitifully. "Please," Matt begged sensing dumbly that he was in danger of losing his life at the hands of this man turned monster. He's heard whisperings, but the red eyes and distorted face were enough to shock the truest believer… of which Matt wasn't.

"DO NOT LAY ONE SINGLE FINGER ON ANY OF THEM!!" Dave hissed sending shiver's up Matt's back. "Please I'm sorry," Matt begged as he was again lifted off the floor and his face was brought up to Dave's. Drooling, bleeding and begging, 6there was no sign of his famous mattitude now. Softly Dave hissed in Matt's ear. "What's wrong Matty? Where's your mattitude now? Aren't quite the badass that you thought you were are you?"

"Please," Matt begged again as his chest heaved in sobs. Putting his nose up against Matt's Dave hissed softly letting it grow eardrum splittingly loud as Matt cried some more. "What do you think Little One?" Dave asked his beloved who's feet Matt had been laying at earlier. "For myself I don't care, but for the others… I don't think he deserves life." Recognizing the voice Matt's head tried to follow it but Dave prevented that slamming him down to the ground driving a knee hard into his back. Matt sobbed as he felt and heard a crack praying that wasn't vertebrae. Dave nodded and lifted Matt again smiling at the pain he saw in Matt's face. Grabbing him by the neck again Dave let his claws sink into the tender flesh of Matt's neck smiling as the blood oozed over his fingers running over his hand and down his arm. "Then you die Matty."

Matt's last living thought was predictably selfish. He didn't beg forgiveness for his sins. He didn't cry for the pain he had caused. He didn't weep for the loss of friends he THOUGHT he had. Instead he cursed fate knowing that THEY had won again. "I don't deserve this. I'm better than them all!" Disgusted Dave sank his claws further into Matt's neck until he felt the life drain away leaving the elder Hardy dead. Lifting his other hand Dave ripped the head from Matt's body and turning presented it to his beloved Gregory who smiled.

"A present for you my love," Dave purred leaning in to kiss his lover who sighed happily. "Thank you," Shane said pulling back and glancing at the severed head, "but I think Jeff would appreciate it. He's told me a million times he's like to get Matt's head on a platter and shit down his throat."

Lev chuckled darkly and lifted the body from the floor before looking at Shane again. "Well then I say we give Jeffy exactly what he wants." Looking at the severed head Dave spat disgusted. "If I told ya once, I told ya a million times Hardy Boy. The super hero… is MINE!"

The End

Version #4: Just a Little Kiss
