1
00:00:00.640 --> 00:00:06.559
Welcome back, my spookies. Tonight, school is in session, but

2
00:00:07.400 --> 00:00:12.320
the lesson plan has been written in blood. At a

3
00:00:12.359 --> 00:00:17.559
strict religious academy, a forbidden book offers one rebellious student

4
00:00:17.719 --> 00:00:23.839
something far more dangerous than freedom. Deep in the Tennessee Wilderness,

5
00:00:24.199 --> 00:00:28.480
a self proclaimed soldier of fortune points his weapons at

6
00:00:28.519 --> 00:00:32.759
a Satanic cult and discovers that the devil is not

7
00:00:33.079 --> 00:00:39.079
merely a figure of speech. One truly terrible morning becomes

8
00:00:39.159 --> 00:00:44.159
a supernatural curse that no amount of flushing can stop.

9
00:00:45.079 --> 00:00:49.719
And at Strickfield High, a squad of vampire cheerleaders is

10
00:00:49.759 --> 00:00:53.399
about to learn that they are not the largest predator

11
00:00:53.759 --> 00:01:00.119
stalking the halls. These stories are wicked, wild and darkly funny,

12
00:01:00.600 --> 00:01:05.760
filled with demons, witchcraft, occult rituals, possessed children, undead armies,

13
00:01:06.120 --> 00:01:11.920
and fangs after the final bell, so hide the holy water,

14
00:01:12.359 --> 00:01:17.560
check your reflection, and never insult a witch after midnight,

15
00:01:18.560 --> 00:01:21.840
Turn down the lights, turn up the volume, and prepare

16
00:01:21.879 --> 00:01:29.719
yourself for four horrifying tales of temptation, transformation, and supernatural revenge.

17
00:01:30.519 --> 00:01:33.760
And make sure you're subscribed because this is weekly Spooky.

18
00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:37.040
Every Wednesday, there's a brand new terror tale for you

19
00:01:37.120 --> 00:01:42.799
to enjoy seven years strong and still going. Now let's

20
00:01:42.879 --> 00:01:51.920
begin sin by rob Fields. I'm sitting here in this

21
00:01:52.280 --> 00:01:56.879
mother fucking classroom about to lose my mother fucking shit

22
00:01:57.319 --> 00:02:02.920
listening to this boring, mother fucking lecture. Like I give

23
00:02:03.040 --> 00:02:08.800
two mother fucking shits about religion. Personally, I like my

24
00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:12.520
other classes. I just hate the ones about a fictitious

25
00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:15.800
God and the stories that come out of that big

26
00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:21.159
book of lies called the Holy Bible. That's what I

27
00:02:21.199 --> 00:02:26.439
get for coming to a hell hole like Strickfield Academy. Still,

28
00:02:27.000 --> 00:02:31.560
this place does have its advantages. For one, it's got

29
00:02:31.599 --> 00:02:36.719
great food, unlike your average high school cafeteria. Two they

30
00:02:36.759 --> 00:02:42.240
give you these sexy schoolgirl outfits. And three I get

31
00:02:42.280 --> 00:02:47.039
away with murder here. No really, I do get away

32
00:02:47.599 --> 00:02:54.240
with murder here. Listen and learn. I'm listening to Sister

33
00:02:54.360 --> 00:02:58.960
Mary Theodore talking about some shit called revelations. I can't

34
00:02:58.960 --> 00:03:02.080
wait to get the fuck out of here. Then these

35
00:03:02.120 --> 00:03:05.400
two cunts get my attention. We ain't allowed to have

36
00:03:05.439 --> 00:03:09.000
smartphones on in classes. Let these nuns catch you with one.

37
00:03:09.039 --> 00:03:12.159
You're lucky if you'll ever see it again. So these

38
00:03:12.199 --> 00:03:17.280
two are going old school passing notes. Personally, I don't

39
00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:20.319
care if people pass notes. It's the two of them

40
00:03:20.479 --> 00:03:25.120
hissing piste when they pass them. When I've had enough

41
00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:29.159
of their pists, I snatch the note and crinkle it up,

42
00:03:29.520 --> 00:03:32.800
making sure the nun catches me. She comes right over

43
00:03:32.919 --> 00:03:36.879
and holds out her hand hand it over. Elane. Now,

44
00:03:37.479 --> 00:03:42.960
she snaps, that's Laney to you. I reply and throw

45
00:03:43.039 --> 00:03:46.520
the crinkled ball up front. The bitch retrieves it and

46
00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:52.000
reads it to herself. Then she reads the rather interesting

47
00:03:52.159 --> 00:03:57.120
conversation to the whole class. These two both glare at

48
00:03:57.159 --> 00:04:00.319
me after the rest of the class finishes last, laughing

49
00:04:00.360 --> 00:04:03.719
at the juiciness the sister just read. The girls are

50
00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:08.199
both told to go see Headmistress Hiltonson. Then the bitch

51
00:04:08.240 --> 00:04:13.680
points at me, you too, Elaine. Now, I sigh and

52
00:04:13.759 --> 00:04:16.480
grab my books as long as it gets me out

53
00:04:16.519 --> 00:04:21.959
of this fucking class. Excuse me, she demands, You heard me.

54
00:04:22.959 --> 00:04:26.160
I've easily got the attention of the other students. They

55
00:04:26.199 --> 00:04:31.480
know I don't take shit from anybody, especially these fucking nuns. Oh.

56
00:04:31.560 --> 00:04:34.639
I know, sister Theodore wants to call me everything but

57
00:04:34.800 --> 00:04:39.959
a child of God. I just love pushing her buttons,

58
00:04:40.480 --> 00:04:44.920
but not nearly as much as I love pushing Headmistress Hiltonson's.

59
00:04:46.279 --> 00:04:51.120
After school, I walk into detention hall and those two

60
00:04:51.199 --> 00:04:54.600
cunts are here. I think their names are Joni Sawyer

61
00:04:54.639 --> 00:05:00.480
and Teresa Gilmer. Yep, they're glaring right at me. I

62
00:05:00.600 --> 00:05:03.800
got them both in trouble two. I only have to

63
00:05:03.839 --> 00:05:07.439
be in detention just today. Those two are here for

64
00:05:07.560 --> 00:05:11.879
a whole week. Ain't it funny those two are passing

65
00:05:12.040 --> 00:05:15.800
sexual notes to each other. I back talked both sister

66
00:05:15.879 --> 00:05:19.519
Theodore and had Mistress Hiltonson, and all I get is

67
00:05:19.639 --> 00:05:24.279
one detention period. I keep telling Hiltonson she can expel

68
00:05:24.399 --> 00:05:29.360
me anytime she likes, but she won't budge. Still, I

69
00:05:29.519 --> 00:05:33.079
cause more problems than both Janie and Teresa, and I

70
00:05:33.160 --> 00:05:40.240
keep getting the lesser punishments. You're dead, Jony hisses. After detention.

71
00:05:41.079 --> 00:05:46.399
Teresa adds, I roll my eyes eat me, remembering my

72
00:05:46.480 --> 00:05:48.920
shirt is tied up in front of me and not buttoned.

73
00:05:49.279 --> 00:05:52.680
I decide to provoke Jony and Teresa even more, and

74
00:05:52.800 --> 00:05:56.800
to show I really don't give a fuck, I pull

75
00:05:56.879 --> 00:06:00.360
down my bra and shake my tits for them. Get

76
00:06:00.399 --> 00:06:04.199
the appropriate reactions from everybody else in here. Jony and

77
00:06:04.279 --> 00:06:06.839
Teresa are out of their seats and ready to lunge

78
00:06:06.839 --> 00:06:10.600
at me. When I quickly sit down, Sister Theodore, who's

79
00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:14.000
in charge of detention hall this week, comes in. I'm

80
00:06:14.079 --> 00:06:16.959
laughing inside when she points right at those two and

81
00:06:17.040 --> 00:06:20.879
tells them they'll be in detention all next week too.

82
00:06:21.079 --> 00:06:25.279
Teresa points right at me. She just flashed her fucking

83
00:06:25.399 --> 00:06:29.720
tits at us. Bad move. Sister Theodore not only kicks

84
00:06:29.759 --> 00:06:32.480
them both out of detention Hall, but she tacks on

85
00:06:32.600 --> 00:06:36.680
two more weeks for the f bomb and the vulgar

86
00:06:36.839 --> 00:06:41.920
bodily reference her words, I'm serving my detention by reading

87
00:06:42.199 --> 00:06:46.079
my Bible. Oh no, I never read the false words

88
00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:51.680
of the fictitious God. No, I read a completely different Bible.

89
00:06:52.319 --> 00:06:54.480
To the naked eye, it looks like a copy of

90
00:06:54.519 --> 00:06:57.920
the Holy Bible, but what I'm really reading are the

91
00:06:57.959 --> 00:07:02.920
words of Hell. There's no name for this Bible that

92
00:07:02.959 --> 00:07:06.040
I'm aware of. I found it when I was swimming

93
00:07:06.160 --> 00:07:09.560
naked in the Castalia River next to some caves two

94
00:07:09.560 --> 00:07:12.199
weeks ago. I got out of the water and went

95
00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:14.319
into the cave where I was going to spend the night.

96
00:07:15.639 --> 00:07:18.800
Get the idea, yet, I'm a fucking runaway. I ran

97
00:07:18.839 --> 00:07:21.439
away from home when I was twelve. Believe it or not,

98
00:07:21.920 --> 00:07:25.639
I came from a very rich family, probably not as

99
00:07:25.720 --> 00:07:29.000
rich as these mirons living in Strickfield. But our family

100
00:07:29.040 --> 00:07:32.160
never wanted for anything. And that was the big problem

101
00:07:32.240 --> 00:07:36.279
right there. You'd think I'd be so happy with having

102
00:07:36.360 --> 00:07:41.639
money and power. The problem was money just didn't interest me.

103
00:07:42.399 --> 00:07:46.759
It's fucking toilet paper. Then there was the whole society

104
00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:51.439
thing and the government bullshit. To put it mildly, I

105
00:07:51.639 --> 00:07:56.000
just do not respect or appreciate being told what to do.

106
00:07:56.319 --> 00:08:00.439
I fucking hate rules. I fucking hate society. On my

107
00:08:00.480 --> 00:08:03.920
twelfth birthday, I couldn't take it anymore. I left that

108
00:08:04.040 --> 00:08:07.839
huge fucking mansion in Los Angeles with only the clothes

109
00:08:07.879 --> 00:08:11.399
on my back. I didn't take my smartphone or any money.

110
00:08:12.480 --> 00:08:17.720
Why I can just steal whatever I want. Through the years,

111
00:08:17.920 --> 00:08:20.720
I've paid my dues, I got my ass kicked, I

112
00:08:20.800 --> 00:08:24.560
learned to kick ass. I've even killed people. I learned

113
00:08:24.600 --> 00:08:27.000
so much in the wild that if it was a profession,

114
00:08:27.480 --> 00:08:31.720
I could have made big money. Anyway, I kept wandering

115
00:08:31.720 --> 00:08:34.919
from place to place, stealing everything I needed, or living

116
00:08:34.960 --> 00:08:39.120
off the land. I'm currently nineteen years old and doing

117
00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:43.720
just fine. Why did I come to Strickfield. I just

118
00:08:43.799 --> 00:08:46.600
happened to jump off a train in that area. As

119
00:08:46.639 --> 00:08:50.159
I walked the tracks, two girls wearing Strickfield Academy uniforms

120
00:08:50.600 --> 00:08:54.000
decided to fuck with me. When they decided to jump

121
00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:57.080
me from behind, I grabbed one girl and snapped her neck.

122
00:08:57.919 --> 00:08:59.879
Then I grabbed the other one and bit a huge

123
00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:03.200
chunk of flesh right out of her neck. She bled

124
00:09:03.240 --> 00:09:07.360
all over me before she fell over and died. I

125
00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:10.159
took both of their uniforms and washed them in the

126
00:09:10.200 --> 00:09:13.960
nearby river. Curiosity got the better of me, and I

127
00:09:14.039 --> 00:09:18.519
wanted to see what Strickfield Academy was all about. After

128
00:09:18.600 --> 00:09:21.679
checking it out and seeing the place was pretty much

129
00:09:21.720 --> 00:09:25.559
a parochial school for fucking rich brats, I decided to

130
00:09:25.559 --> 00:09:29.960
settle down here for the time being. Unfortunately, you needed

131
00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:32.799
money to go here, so I had to steal some.

132
00:09:33.720 --> 00:09:38.440
Far from that, getting in here was easy peasy. Getting

133
00:09:38.480 --> 00:09:41.600
back to swimming naked in the river. I was staying

134
00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:44.799
at this nearby cave. I got done swimming and was

135
00:09:44.799 --> 00:09:47.399
sitting down. I had a fire going and was eating

136
00:09:47.399 --> 00:09:49.960
a hot dog. I was cooking on it. While I

137
00:09:50.039 --> 00:09:53.440
was eating, I saw something interesting sticking out a little

138
00:09:53.440 --> 00:09:56.399
further in the cave. I got up and went to look.

139
00:09:57.080 --> 00:10:02.399
I found and uncovered this big, thick book, a copy

140
00:10:02.440 --> 00:10:05.039
of the Bible. Fuck. No, who the hell would bury

141
00:10:05.120 --> 00:10:10.720
that fucking book in here? No, someone buried this particular

142
00:10:10.879 --> 00:10:14.679
book to keep it secret. I took it back to

143
00:10:14.720 --> 00:10:17.559
my fire and opened it. The text was in some

144
00:10:17.759 --> 00:10:21.919
language I'd never seen before. Funny thing, though, I found

145
00:10:21.919 --> 00:10:26.759
I could both read and understand the words I'm not

146
00:10:26.879 --> 00:10:29.919
any special kind of girl with powers or anything. The

147
00:10:29.960 --> 00:10:33.320
only other language I could speak fluently was Spanish. But

148
00:10:33.440 --> 00:10:37.960
there I was reading away. I read about a demonic

149
00:10:38.000 --> 00:10:41.720
goddess called hell Weaver. Turns out she was banished to

150
00:10:41.759 --> 00:10:45.679
the hellish dimension known as Perdition. Hell Weaver battled with

151
00:10:45.720 --> 00:10:49.679
an alien girl known as Genessa. Hell Weaver was going

152
00:10:49.720 --> 00:10:52.759
to use the reality sphere to change the entire multiverse

153
00:10:52.799 --> 00:10:56.240
into a hellish one of her desire. Genessa had done

154
00:10:56.279 --> 00:10:59.840
the unthinkable and damaged the reality sphere to where it is.

155
00:11:01.279 --> 00:11:05.000
This Bible doesn't say what happened to Genesa, but hell

156
00:11:05.080 --> 00:11:09.559
Weaver found herself banished and imprisoned in Perdition, where she

157
00:11:09.679 --> 00:11:14.000
remains trapped to this day. Hell Weaver had been able

158
00:11:14.039 --> 00:11:17.320
to communicate with other beings, which would explain how this

159
00:11:17.480 --> 00:11:21.480
Bible was created. Hell Weaver had been trying to escape

160
00:11:21.519 --> 00:11:25.600
perdition for eons. There were two ways to free hell Weaver.

161
00:11:26.240 --> 00:11:29.519
One find the reality sphere and throw it into the

162
00:11:29.559 --> 00:11:33.840
Infinity Core. But since us mortals can't exactly move through

163
00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:37.639
time and space, hell Weaver had to fined another way,

164
00:11:38.759 --> 00:11:42.960
and she did. It's a long process, but if done correctly,

165
00:11:43.279 --> 00:11:46.679
it would weaken and shatter the barriers that keep hell

166
00:11:46.679 --> 00:11:51.840
Weaver locked in perdition. In fact, that's what I'm reading

167
00:11:51.919 --> 00:11:56.080
about again here in detention right now. First, Hell Weaver

168
00:11:56.159 --> 00:11:59.960
needs a disciple, an advocate, someone who's willing to get

169
00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:04.039
give herself to hell Weaver. I already told you how

170
00:12:04.080 --> 00:12:07.360
sick I am of this fucking world, about everything being

171
00:12:07.399 --> 00:12:11.600
about money and rules. The more I'm reading these passages,

172
00:12:11.759 --> 00:12:14.799
the more I'm absolutely sure I want to commit myself

173
00:12:15.120 --> 00:12:19.440
to hell Weaver. Once I succeed in bringing her into

174
00:12:19.480 --> 00:12:22.879
our world, she can do what this Genessa kept her

175
00:12:22.879 --> 00:12:27.519
from doing. However, long ago. That was the first step

176
00:12:27.559 --> 00:12:30.759
to becoming hell Weaver's advocate, is to prove to her

177
00:12:30.840 --> 00:12:34.480
that I'm willing to do whatever it takes in fact,

178
00:12:34.720 --> 00:12:38.559
that's what's going to happen. After detention, thirty minutes go

179
00:12:38.639 --> 00:12:43.279
by quickly, Sister Theodore says we can leave. I repack

180
00:12:43.360 --> 00:12:47.559
my bible and slide my backpack on. Sure enough, as

181
00:12:47.559 --> 00:12:50.120
soon as I leave through the gates of Strickfield Academy,

182
00:12:50.559 --> 00:12:53.720
Joni and Teresa are waiting for me, and they made

183
00:12:53.759 --> 00:12:58.279
it a point to bring friends. Teresa has a wicked smirk.

184
00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:02.600
We're gonna fuck you up. Should we kick or kill

185
00:13:02.639 --> 00:13:07.960
her ass? Petatole asks kill her ass? Joni immediately answers.

186
00:13:08.480 --> 00:13:11.000
Then she takes a switchblade out and shows me the

187
00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:17.000
glistening steel after we cut off her tits. I smile

188
00:13:17.120 --> 00:13:21.679
a sexy smile. What these old things? I pull my

189
00:13:21.759 --> 00:13:26.480
broad down and flash them all. Now get her, Petta yells.

190
00:13:27.240 --> 00:13:29.919
I quickly turn and run. I can hear all those

191
00:13:29.960 --> 00:13:33.080
bitches right behind me. I won't be able to outrun them,

192
00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:35.639
especially with the weight of my hell Weaver Bible in

193
00:13:35.720 --> 00:13:39.000
my backpack, but I can keep some distance in between

194
00:13:39.000 --> 00:13:42.919
me and them. Unlike them, I'm in great physical shape,

195
00:13:43.159 --> 00:13:47.120
thanks to enough years of exercising and also running from

196
00:13:47.159 --> 00:13:50.360
the cops. I lead them to the abandoned house I've

197
00:13:50.399 --> 00:13:52.840
been staying at. When I reach it, I move to

198
00:13:52.879 --> 00:13:55.720
a basement window and throw my backpack in before I

199
00:13:55.799 --> 00:13:59.480
slide right in myself. I'm already moving up the stairway

200
00:13:59.519 --> 00:14:02.279
with my back when the bitches reach the window and

201
00:14:02.320 --> 00:14:06.240
start coming in. It takes the bitches long enough, but

202
00:14:06.320 --> 00:14:08.919
they finally find me sitting at a windowsill of what

203
00:14:09.159 --> 00:14:12.080
used to be the master bedroom, and my tits are

204
00:14:12.120 --> 00:14:15.639
still out for them to see. Jony points right at me,

205
00:14:16.279 --> 00:14:21.279
nowhere left to run. You are so fucking dead, I laugh, Well,

206
00:14:21.960 --> 00:14:25.679
I'm right here. Come and get me. When they come

207
00:14:25.720 --> 00:14:28.240
for me, I pull two hunting knives out from behind

208
00:14:28.279 --> 00:14:31.559
me and go at them. The bitches are finding out

209
00:14:31.639 --> 00:14:34.799
this girl's got moves. In under two minutes, I've got

210
00:14:34.879 --> 00:14:38.399
multiple dead bodies all over the floor. I lick the

211
00:14:38.440 --> 00:14:42.600
blood off both knives before I put them down. Mmm,

212
00:14:43.039 --> 00:14:46.919
you babes made me feel so dirty. I purr as

213
00:14:46.960 --> 00:14:50.360
I start taking my clothes off. I think I need

214
00:14:50.399 --> 00:14:53.799
a bath. When I'm fully naked, I look at the

215
00:14:53.840 --> 00:14:58.919
bodies and you can help me fill the tub. I

216
00:14:59.000 --> 00:15:02.159
step into the full tub and lower my naked body

217
00:15:02.639 --> 00:15:06.399
into the blood. When I'm seated, I sink underneath the

218
00:15:06.440 --> 00:15:10.720
blood for a long moment and come back up. Those

219
00:15:10.799 --> 00:15:15.080
girls were more than enough to fill this tub. Their

220
00:15:15.159 --> 00:15:21.919
blood is so rich, so warm, and so sticky. No,

221
00:15:22.120 --> 00:15:25.519
I'm not taking after that blood, Countess. This blood won't

222
00:15:25.600 --> 00:15:30.080
let me retain my youth and hotness. Also, I'm pretty

223
00:15:30.080 --> 00:15:33.559
sure none of it is virgin blood. No, the first

224
00:15:33.600 --> 00:15:37.039
step to becoming hell Weaver's advocate is to wash yourself

225
00:15:37.039 --> 00:15:41.519
in the blood of your own kind mortals. I moan

226
00:15:41.720 --> 00:15:45.600
softly and scoop some blood into both hands. I bring

227
00:15:45.679 --> 00:15:48.159
them up and pour it over my face and hair.

228
00:15:48.759 --> 00:15:51.840
I bathe in this blood for several minutes before I

229
00:15:51.879 --> 00:15:55.120
get out of the tub and proceed to the second step.

230
00:15:55.840 --> 00:15:58.519
I lower myself to my knees and pick up one

231
00:15:58.519 --> 00:16:02.120
of the hearts I extracted from those girls. I don't

232
00:16:02.120 --> 00:16:03.799
even think about it as I bring it to my

233
00:16:03.919 --> 00:16:08.200
mouth and start eating. I have to eat all the

234
00:16:08.240 --> 00:16:11.879
hearts of those sinful mortals I killed for their blood.

235
00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:16.200
They couldn't be innocent hearts. I kept a close eye

236
00:16:16.240 --> 00:16:20.559
on this particular group. They didn't just bully other students

237
00:16:20.559 --> 00:16:23.960
at the academy. They sometimes beat them within an inch

238
00:16:24.039 --> 00:16:27.679
of their lives. They also committed burglaries and hurt the

239
00:16:27.720 --> 00:16:32.360
people they stole from, sometimes severely. I needed to show

240
00:16:32.440 --> 00:16:35.360
I was even more merciless than they were and would

241
00:16:35.399 --> 00:16:40.399
do whatever it took to win hell Weaver's favor. These

242
00:16:40.480 --> 00:16:45.360
hearts are actually delicious, in case you haven't figured it out,

243
00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:50.399
I've eaten other humans for food, many times, kill or

244
00:16:50.440 --> 00:16:54.679
be killed. That's how this world works. My tummy's really full,

245
00:16:54.879 --> 00:16:57.240
and I have one heart left to eat. I have

246
00:16:57.320 --> 00:17:00.279
to force myself to I feel like I'm ready ready

247
00:17:00.279 --> 00:17:02.879
to burst. I feel like I'm going to puke. I

248
00:17:02.960 --> 00:17:06.640
keep taking in deep breaths until I'm starting to feel better,

249
00:17:07.039 --> 00:17:11.160
but I do finish eating that final heart. Now, for

250
00:17:11.240 --> 00:17:14.319
the third and final step, I must summon hell Weaver

251
00:17:14.400 --> 00:17:18.440
herself and have her come before me. The Bible is

252
00:17:18.480 --> 00:17:22.640
already open to the pages I need. Then I light

253
00:17:22.759 --> 00:17:26.319
enough candles to illuminate this whole room for the ritual.

254
00:17:27.200 --> 00:17:30.680
Note it's still daylight yet. I kneel down in front

255
00:17:30.680 --> 00:17:34.839
of the pages and start reading the incantations. When I finish,

256
00:17:34.960 --> 00:17:40.119
this light appears near me. I shriek with such happiness

257
00:17:40.240 --> 00:17:45.680
when I finally see her. Hell Weaver is so very beautiful.

258
00:17:46.119 --> 00:17:48.720
I've only seen the renderings of her in this Bible,

259
00:17:49.599 --> 00:17:53.079
but they don't do her justice. Even though she appears

260
00:17:53.119 --> 00:17:58.160
before me, She's not really here. It's just a manifestation

261
00:17:58.400 --> 00:18:02.680
of herself from perdition. She's still trapped there until I

262
00:18:02.720 --> 00:18:06.079
can free her, which will take much longer than the

263
00:18:06.119 --> 00:18:09.599
summoning ritual. I just did. I turn my body to

264
00:18:09.640 --> 00:18:13.920
face hell Weaver, but remain on my knees. It's really you.

265
00:18:15.680 --> 00:18:19.160
Hell Weaver smiles and takes firm hold of my chin,

266
00:18:20.279 --> 00:18:23.720
and you are the first mortal to perform the ritual.

267
00:18:25.160 --> 00:18:29.480
This goddess is the best way I can describe her,

268
00:18:30.160 --> 00:18:33.359
an amped up version of a succubus. I mean, she's

269
00:18:33.400 --> 00:18:36.359
a combination of whatever makes up her flesh in her armor,

270
00:18:36.920 --> 00:18:40.079
the blank, fiery gems that are her eyes look deep

271
00:18:40.200 --> 00:18:45.559
into mine. You're so beautiful. I choke out. I love you.

272
00:18:46.559 --> 00:18:50.640
Hell Weaver's still smiling. I have never seen or felt

273
00:18:50.799 --> 00:18:57.920
such devotion from one among your mortal kind. Please please

274
00:18:58.039 --> 00:19:01.720
let me serve you. I beg her. She still holds

275
00:19:01.759 --> 00:19:07.279
my chin. I can feel that you abhor authority. Why

276
00:19:07.319 --> 00:19:12.000
would you now obey me because I want to free you?

277
00:19:12.519 --> 00:19:15.599
I reply, I want you to destroy this world and

278
00:19:15.680 --> 00:19:19.200
remake it the way you desire. I hate my people,

279
00:19:19.400 --> 00:19:22.119
I hate this world what it's become. I want there

280
00:19:22.160 --> 00:19:25.880
to be hell on earth. I can feel myself crying now.

281
00:19:26.759 --> 00:19:30.599
I swear my eternal loyalty to you, my hell Weaver.

282
00:19:31.079 --> 00:19:34.720
I'll obey your every command. Whatever you want, name it.

283
00:19:35.759 --> 00:19:41.920
Hell Weaver smiles again. Interesting, none have ever cried for

284
00:19:42.039 --> 00:19:47.400
me before. I've read your words. I reply, You're real,

285
00:19:47.799 --> 00:19:50.079
You're not a false god. I want to free you

286
00:19:50.240 --> 00:19:54.400
and be by your side. I'm crying more now. I

287
00:19:54.480 --> 00:19:58.160
love you. I choke out again. She lets go of

288
00:19:58.200 --> 00:20:03.079
my chin rh She takes my hand and helps me

289
00:20:03.119 --> 00:20:06.519
to my feet. She takes a I don't know a

290
00:20:06.640 --> 00:20:09.759
kind of motherly hold of my face as she looks

291
00:20:09.799 --> 00:20:13.519
into my teary eyes. Again. You have proven to me

292
00:20:13.960 --> 00:20:18.359
that you can become my advocate, Elena Lister. But you

293
00:20:18.480 --> 00:20:22.279
haven't just proven yourself to me, my daughter, You even

294
00:20:22.480 --> 00:20:25.400
feel for me. This is a first for both a

295
00:20:25.440 --> 00:20:29.039
disciple and a mortal. It was so easy for you

296
00:20:29.119 --> 00:20:32.160
to bathe in the foul blood of your own kind. However,

297
00:20:32.279 --> 00:20:35.920
eating all of their hearts was something only you have

298
00:20:36.039 --> 00:20:39.519
succeeded in doing. It shows that you would give your

299
00:20:39.720 --> 00:20:45.119
very existence to serve me, and you do not fear me.

300
00:20:45.839 --> 00:20:48.680
I do not know whether you are foolish or I

301
00:20:48.680 --> 00:20:53.240
don't fear you because I love you. I cry. Do

302
00:20:53.319 --> 00:20:55.279
I need to prove myself more to show you that

303
00:20:56.839 --> 00:21:01.000
hell Weaver considers me. Now, come with me, my child.

304
00:21:01.119 --> 00:21:03.759
There is one way you shall prove your love for me.

305
00:21:05.200 --> 00:21:10.160
Suddenly everything changes. Now I find myself in an extravagant bedroom.

306
00:21:10.880 --> 00:21:15.200
I know exactly where I am. This is my old house.

307
00:21:16.240 --> 00:21:19.359
I ran away from here when I was twelve. Hell

308
00:21:19.440 --> 00:21:23.279
Weaver folds her arms in front of her. You left

309
00:21:23.319 --> 00:21:26.559
your family at such a young age, especially when you

310
00:21:26.599 --> 00:21:31.319
had everything you could ever want. I hated my family.

311
00:21:31.799 --> 00:21:36.200
I growled everything was all about money and power. They

312
00:21:36.200 --> 00:21:39.960
were always forcing their ways on me, smothering me. This

313
00:21:40.079 --> 00:21:44.759
house felt like a fucking prison. I had to run away,

314
00:21:44.799 --> 00:21:47.759
and when I did, they wouldn't stop coming after me.

315
00:21:49.640 --> 00:21:52.240
Not because they loved me, but because they wanted to

316
00:21:52.279 --> 00:21:57.960
prove their power and superiority. Then prove yours. Sever your

317
00:21:58.000 --> 00:22:05.359
ties with your family, completely, kill them, kill all of them. Suddenly,

318
00:22:05.400 --> 00:22:09.200
an ancient looking dagger appears in front of me. Do

319
00:22:09.400 --> 00:22:11.960
to them what you did to your enemies to summon me.

320
00:22:12.400 --> 00:22:15.759
Show me that you truly love and cherish only me.

321
00:22:16.519 --> 00:22:19.599
Do this act without mercy, and you shall be reborn

322
00:22:20.119 --> 00:22:23.720
unto me. I take the dagger and start moving throughout

323
00:22:23.759 --> 00:22:27.759
the house. Oh, the servants are quite surprised when they

324
00:22:27.839 --> 00:22:31.640
see me naked and soaked with blood, and that's the

325
00:22:31.720 --> 00:22:34.960
last thing they see before I use the dagger to

326
00:22:35.119 --> 00:22:40.720
kill them. Wow, my parents sure had a lot of servants. Next,

327
00:22:40.720 --> 00:22:44.400
I find my brothers and sisters and I kill them too.

328
00:22:45.119 --> 00:22:47.440
A few of them don't recognize me because they were

329
00:22:47.480 --> 00:22:50.920
born after I ran away. As for my older siblings,

330
00:22:50.920 --> 00:22:55.240
they recognize me immediately. Being naked and bloody certainly gives

331
00:22:55.240 --> 00:23:01.160
me an advantage. Huh. Now it's down to only my parents.

332
00:23:02.000 --> 00:23:04.720
I find Mom and Dad sitting in bed together and

333
00:23:04.799 --> 00:23:08.319
watching TV. No surprise, the two of them aren't fucking

334
00:23:08.799 --> 00:23:12.039
as many kids as they've had together. Boy do they

335
00:23:12.039 --> 00:23:18.400
ever shit when they see me Elena. Mom gasps, good God,

336
00:23:19.039 --> 00:23:22.799
Dad practically chokes out. I don't waste time and march

337
00:23:22.880 --> 00:23:26.599
right to their bed and slaughter them. I don't just

338
00:23:26.680 --> 00:23:29.920
give them a few stabs. I fucking lay into them.

339
00:23:30.039 --> 00:23:32.920
I hate them both so much that I viciously stab

340
00:23:33.000 --> 00:23:36.279
them multiple times. When their blood splashes on me, I

341
00:23:36.359 --> 00:23:39.599
rub it into the blood already on my body. Then

342
00:23:39.640 --> 00:23:42.920
I put the dagger down and tear them both open.

343
00:23:43.240 --> 00:23:45.960
I soak my hands and their blood, and wet myself

344
00:23:46.000 --> 00:23:49.000
more with it. I even wash my face and hair

345
00:23:49.039 --> 00:23:53.839
with it. My hell weaver watches me. Do you want

346
00:23:53.839 --> 00:23:59.279
me to eat their hearts too? I ask yes, I'm

347
00:23:59.319 --> 00:24:01.920
still very full from the other hearts I've already eaten,

348
00:24:02.440 --> 00:24:05.279
but I don't hesitate. I reach inside my parents and

349
00:24:05.319 --> 00:24:07.839
pull their hearts out. I eat them both in front

350
00:24:07.880 --> 00:24:11.960
of my hell weaver. Much to my surprise, my tummy

351
00:24:12.039 --> 00:24:16.119
doesn't burst as I finish both of them. I love you.

352
00:24:16.920 --> 00:24:20.519
I tell her again, anything you demand, I will do.

353
00:24:21.480 --> 00:24:26.960
She approaches me. Indeed, you have won my love, my child.

354
00:24:27.160 --> 00:24:29.759
You may yet serve me and rule at my side.

355
00:24:30.319 --> 00:24:32.839
But for you to do so, you must be reborn.

356
00:24:33.200 --> 00:24:36.359
You must shed your mortal roots. You must allow me

357
00:24:36.480 --> 00:24:40.119
to both destroy and remake you. This is all that

358
00:24:40.200 --> 00:24:43.960
I further require for you to be my true daughter.

359
00:24:44.799 --> 00:24:48.599
Will you knowingly and willingly give yourself unto me body

360
00:24:48.720 --> 00:24:53.559
and soul. I look into the Goddess's eyes. I give

361
00:24:53.599 --> 00:24:57.240
you my everything. Hurt me, torture me, abuse me any

362
00:24:57.240 --> 00:25:00.680
way you like. I'll prove my loyalty love to you

363
00:25:00.799 --> 00:25:07.400
again and again. Anything make me yours very well, then

364
00:25:07.440 --> 00:25:12.480
you shall be reborn unto me. The scenery changes again.

365
00:25:13.480 --> 00:25:16.279
We're in a temple, right in front of an altar.

366
00:25:17.079 --> 00:25:20.359
Even though hell Weaver can't leave perdition, she's able to

367
00:25:20.400 --> 00:25:23.799
bring me into her realm. My goddess lifts me into

368
00:25:23.839 --> 00:25:27.119
her arms and places me on the altar. Now she

369
00:25:27.240 --> 00:25:30.599
has fangs just like a vampire and sinks them deep

370
00:25:31.079 --> 00:25:36.519
into my neck. I moan hard as she drinks my blood. Next,

371
00:25:36.559 --> 00:25:40.640
she easily pushes her hot claws into my stomach. I'm

372
00:25:40.680 --> 00:25:44.319
in serious pain, especially when I feel her hand on

373
00:25:44.480 --> 00:25:48.480
my heart. The pain becomes so intense I don't think

374
00:25:48.519 --> 00:25:51.079
anybody has ever felt this. I grit my teeth and

375
00:25:51.160 --> 00:25:55.079
want to scream so badly. My Goddess stops drinking from me.

376
00:25:56.039 --> 00:25:59.359
Drink the pain in my child, accept and relish it.

377
00:26:00.160 --> 00:26:02.720
This is how you will shed your mortal roots and

378
00:26:02.799 --> 00:26:07.400
become my true daughter. Give yourself to me, body and soul.

379
00:26:07.960 --> 00:26:13.720
You must, yes, I scream. Now I can see my

380
00:26:13.799 --> 00:26:16.279
beating heart in her hand as she pulls it right

381
00:26:16.319 --> 00:26:19.559
out of me. Next, my body begins to burn with

382
00:26:19.640 --> 00:26:23.039
her fire. The pain is terrible now, as I feel

383
00:26:23.039 --> 00:26:26.640
my flesh and muscles burning right off my body. Soon

384
00:26:26.759 --> 00:26:30.680
I can feel I'm just a charred skeleton. I'm laying

385
00:26:30.720 --> 00:26:35.119
there helplessly as my hell weaver devours my heart. I'm

386
00:26:35.119 --> 00:26:38.680
only a skeleton with just my eyes left. I look

387
00:26:38.759 --> 00:26:41.920
up at my beautiful goddess in all of her glory

388
00:26:41.960 --> 00:26:47.039
as she finishes eating my beating heart. Now she looks

389
00:26:47.039 --> 00:26:52.160
at me, you shall die and relinquish the mortal realm.

390
00:26:52.640 --> 00:26:57.759
You shall be reborn unto me. Very soon, I feel

391
00:26:57.759 --> 00:27:01.359
myself being levitated off the altar. Now I feel my

392
00:27:01.440 --> 00:27:06.920
skeleton disintegrating until there's literally nothing left of me. I'm dead,

393
00:27:07.759 --> 00:27:12.720
and yet I'm not. Now I'm in some kind of liquid,

394
00:27:12.880 --> 00:27:16.200
and I see something attached to my tummy like a cord.

395
00:27:16.960 --> 00:27:20.400
I can see how tiny I truly am now, And

396
00:27:20.440 --> 00:27:23.359
then I realize what my hell Weaver meant when she

397
00:27:23.519 --> 00:27:27.400
said I had to be reborn unto her, I'm literally

398
00:27:27.480 --> 00:27:32.720
inside the Goddess's womb, and she's pregnant with me. I'm

399
00:27:32.799 --> 00:27:35.880
literally watching my own berth as I grow inside my

400
00:27:36.000 --> 00:27:39.319
new mother. When the time comes, I can see myself

401
00:27:39.359 --> 00:27:42.559
being pushed out of her own body. I'm a baby

402
00:27:42.640 --> 00:27:46.480
all over again. I watch and feel myself grow and

403
00:27:46.599 --> 00:27:49.319
mature as my new mother feeds me from her own

404
00:27:49.359 --> 00:27:53.440
bountiful breasts and nurtures me. She teaches me everything I

405
00:27:53.480 --> 00:27:56.640
need to know, re educating me. She gives all of

406
00:27:56.680 --> 00:27:59.799
herself to me, as an excellent mother would do with

407
00:27:59.839 --> 00:28:04.359
a child she truly loves. Until finally I'm a full

408
00:28:04.440 --> 00:28:07.759
adult once again. As I wake up and find I'm

409
00:28:07.799 --> 00:28:12.079
in my own bed, in my new chambers, my new

410
00:28:12.119 --> 00:28:15.920
mother is at my bedside. Rise, my daughter, you have

411
00:28:16.039 --> 00:28:20.680
truly been reborn unto me. I sit up and face

412
00:28:20.799 --> 00:28:23.880
my new mother. Then she takes my hands so I

413
00:28:23.920 --> 00:28:28.640
can stand. She brings me to a walled mirror. I'm naked,

414
00:28:28.680 --> 00:28:31.119
and I scream when I see my new body for

415
00:28:31.160 --> 00:28:34.920
the first time ever. My hair was just a dirty

416
00:28:35.000 --> 00:28:39.720
color before. Now it's a mix of flaming red and yellow.

417
00:28:40.519 --> 00:28:43.920
My eyes still look mortal, but now there as red

418
00:28:43.960 --> 00:28:48.119
as my mother's. My tits were already sexy before, but

419
00:28:48.240 --> 00:28:51.160
now they're as big as mother's. I'm the sexiest I've

420
00:28:51.200 --> 00:28:53.799
ever looked. If I do say so, I'm the most

421
00:28:53.839 --> 00:28:57.839
beautiful thing that's ever existed now next to my mother.

422
00:28:57.960 --> 00:29:02.039
Of course, I know I'm not mortal any more. Truly,

423
00:29:02.119 --> 00:29:07.759
I have been reborn through Mother. I quickly kneel before

424
00:29:07.839 --> 00:29:12.039
my new mother and cry again. I don't deserve this.

425
00:29:13.279 --> 00:29:17.559
Mother caresses my cheek and smiles. There is no return

426
00:29:17.680 --> 00:29:20.359
for you. Now. From the moment I birthed you, you

427
00:29:20.519 --> 00:29:25.160
truly became my daughter and my child. You ceased being

428
00:29:25.160 --> 00:29:29.079
Elene Alyster when you surrendered yourself unto me, and now

429
00:29:29.119 --> 00:29:33.160
I shall give you a new name. From this moment forward,

430
00:29:33.559 --> 00:29:40.240
your name shall be Sin, simply sin, for you abound

431
00:29:40.319 --> 00:29:43.599
with so much of it, more than any other being

432
00:29:43.680 --> 00:29:48.759
I have ever encountered. She caresses my cheek again. Arise,

433
00:29:49.400 --> 00:29:53.519
Sin and stand with me. As of now you rule

434
00:29:53.640 --> 00:29:57.839
at my side. I obey Mother and stand in front

435
00:29:57.839 --> 00:30:01.720
of her. You are entrusted to complete the ritual, to

436
00:30:01.799 --> 00:30:05.039
release your mother from this prison that is perditioned, and

437
00:30:05.079 --> 00:30:08.240
to help me see my vision for this multiverse to

438
00:30:08.319 --> 00:30:13.119
its end. I gaze into her eyes. Yes, Mother, I

439
00:30:13.160 --> 00:30:17.519
will not fail you. I cry again. Now She leans

440
00:30:17.559 --> 00:30:21.839
in and licks some of my tears away. Must you

441
00:30:21.960 --> 00:30:26.559
continue to cry? I can't help it. Mother. I love

442
00:30:26.599 --> 00:30:29.759
you so deeply, and you've truly blessed me with your love.

443
00:30:30.559 --> 00:30:33.720
That's why I know I can't fail you use the

444
00:30:33.799 --> 00:30:36.880
power I have given you. Sin you are no longer mortal,

445
00:30:37.079 --> 00:30:40.279
your power is now second only to my own. She

446
00:30:40.440 --> 00:30:43.119
presents me with new clothes to put on my new body.

447
00:30:43.759 --> 00:30:47.359
You shall return to Strickfield to the exact moment when

448
00:30:47.400 --> 00:30:50.519
you summon me. From there, you shall accomplish the first

449
00:30:50.559 --> 00:30:55.359
task needed for the ritual. Also, I have a second

450
00:30:55.400 --> 00:30:59.440
disciple on your world, my high priest. I have placed

451
00:30:59.480 --> 00:31:03.000
this knowledge within your mind as well. You shall know

452
00:31:03.160 --> 00:31:06.240
of my high Priest once the two of you encounter

453
00:31:06.359 --> 00:31:10.599
one another. As I dress, I will myself to change.

454
00:31:11.000 --> 00:31:14.119
I now have wings and horns that are metallic and

455
00:31:14.279 --> 00:31:18.480
razor sharp, just like my beautiful mother. My outfit is

456
00:31:18.519 --> 00:31:22.599
an armored bra and panty set with open toad stiletto boots.

457
00:31:23.279 --> 00:31:27.119
Mother is most pleased when she looks at me. Shall

458
00:31:27.160 --> 00:31:38.680
I begin now, Mother? I ask eagerly. Yes. The next morning,

459
00:31:38.759 --> 00:31:42.680
I'm walking the halls of Strickfield Academy. You wouldn't believe

460
00:31:42.759 --> 00:31:45.799
all the heads I'm turning now the nuns are looking

461
00:31:45.839 --> 00:31:50.000
at me with such anger. Mother has truly given me

462
00:31:50.079 --> 00:31:54.880
a beautiful new body and even greater beauty. I am

463
00:31:55.039 --> 00:31:59.079
sin now, but I'll resume being Lady Lister while in

464
00:31:59.119 --> 00:32:02.519
the mortal realm. I'm also in my human form. By

465
00:32:02.519 --> 00:32:05.720
the way, I'm only going to be here long enough

466
00:32:05.720 --> 00:32:09.079
to claim the heart of one of these nuns. It

467
00:32:09.119 --> 00:32:12.000
can't be just any nune, however, it must be one

468
00:32:12.039 --> 00:32:17.039
whose shall we say, a wolf in sheep's clothing. Mother

469
00:32:17.119 --> 00:32:19.640
assured me that my new powers will allow me to

470
00:32:19.720 --> 00:32:24.720
find such a nun here easily. You will always find

471
00:32:24.960 --> 00:32:29.799
hypocritical false servants within your churches or places that profess

472
00:32:29.839 --> 00:32:33.359
to follow in the path of their fictitious God. You

473
00:32:33.400 --> 00:32:37.039
will see their sins on them as plain as mortal days.

474
00:32:38.319 --> 00:32:43.799
And no sooner do I walk right past Sister Mary Theodore. Wow,

475
00:32:44.440 --> 00:32:48.400
this fucking nun reeks of sin. In fact, I can

476
00:32:48.440 --> 00:32:52.720
smell fresh sex right on her. Elaine Lister, She yells

477
00:32:52.720 --> 00:32:56.880
at me over here now, I walk right over to

478
00:32:56.960 --> 00:33:00.920
her eagerly. She's looking me over now. As usual, I

479
00:33:01.000 --> 00:33:03.799
have my uniform shirt tied in a knot in front

480
00:33:03.799 --> 00:33:06.799
of me, showing off my tight bra with my new

481
00:33:07.160 --> 00:33:11.319
juices ready to burst out. This time. I've got a

482
00:33:11.359 --> 00:33:14.640
belly button stud on, which is against the rules. Here

483
00:33:15.319 --> 00:33:18.319
she grabs my arm and pulls me into an empty classroom.

484
00:33:18.720 --> 00:33:22.359
Get in here right now, you jezebel. Then she pulls

485
00:33:22.400 --> 00:33:25.160
the door shut. When she turns and glares at me,

486
00:33:25.799 --> 00:33:31.640
I immediately notice she's looking me over more. What you

487
00:33:31.680 --> 00:33:34.559
don't want me to go to head Mistress Hiltonson's office again,

488
00:33:35.079 --> 00:33:38.720
I purr softly. She's looking at my belly button stud

489
00:33:39.200 --> 00:33:46.200
Remove that now, I smile, a very toothy smile. Remove this.

490
00:33:47.039 --> 00:33:49.799
I untie my shirt and shake myself a little to

491
00:33:49.880 --> 00:33:53.039
let it drop to the floor. She's ready to give

492
00:33:53.039 --> 00:33:56.200
me hell again, but I can literally feel the lust

493
00:33:56.279 --> 00:34:03.480
welling up insider. No, I whisper, okay, maybe this. I

494
00:34:03.519 --> 00:34:05.680
grab the front of my braw, break it open, and

495
00:34:05.759 --> 00:34:07.680
let it drop to the floor. Then I grab the

496
00:34:07.759 --> 00:34:11.079
nun and lock her in a deep, lustful kiss. She

497
00:34:11.199 --> 00:34:14.400
kisses me back with the same hunger and feels me up.

498
00:34:14.840 --> 00:34:17.360
Soon I let her strip me naked. Then I unzip

499
00:34:17.440 --> 00:34:19.599
the back of her habit and watch it fall to

500
00:34:19.679 --> 00:34:24.199
reveal she's not wearing anything underneath. Makes me wonder how

501
00:34:24.239 --> 00:34:27.559
many of her so called God's commandments She's broken here

502
00:34:27.599 --> 00:34:32.199
at Strickfield Academy, including the one on committing adultery. I

503
00:34:32.320 --> 00:34:35.320
kiss her some more and caress her, this time for

504
00:34:35.360 --> 00:34:37.920
the record, I'm not going to have sex with her.

505
00:34:38.360 --> 00:34:43.559
I'm here with this wretched, sinful nun for one reason only.

506
00:34:44.599 --> 00:34:46.960
I feel her up a little longer before I will

507
00:34:47.079 --> 00:34:50.280
my finger nails to become claws and slide them into

508
00:34:50.280 --> 00:34:53.800
her flesh like butter. She only manages a gasp as

509
00:34:53.840 --> 00:34:56.320
I quickly rip her flesh open right up the middle.

510
00:34:56.960 --> 00:35:00.400
I reach up into Sister Theodore's rib cage and remove

511
00:35:00.440 --> 00:35:03.800
her corrupt heart. I hold the dripping trophy in front

512
00:35:03.800 --> 00:35:10.519
of me to examine it. Yes, this is perfect, well done, daughter,

513
00:35:11.360 --> 00:35:16.639
Now you must continue. I hear my mother in my mind. Yes, Mother,

514
00:35:17.000 --> 00:35:20.760
your every wish is my command. This is only the

515
00:35:20.760 --> 00:35:23.920
first piece for the ritual to free Mother. There are

516
00:35:23.960 --> 00:35:27.719
many other pieces to obtain. A few more will be easy,

517
00:35:27.800 --> 00:35:32.039
while others will be most difficult. But I will free Mother.

518
00:35:32.320 --> 00:35:35.480
She will reshape this multiverse in her image. I'll be

519
00:35:35.639 --> 00:35:38.719
right there by her side to see it all happen.

520
00:35:39.519 --> 00:35:44.920
All life will be enslaved to her will. Including You

521
00:35:54.119 --> 00:36:00.320
Gamble with the Devil by David o'hanley. Travis gay Amble

522
00:36:00.400 --> 00:36:03.639
crumpled the rejection letter and tossed it into the trash

523
00:36:03.679 --> 00:36:06.320
on his way into the kitchen. It was the third

524
00:36:06.360 --> 00:36:09.599
one for the month. It frustrated him, but it wasn't

525
00:36:09.599 --> 00:36:12.719
the end of the world. Travis didn't need to work.

526
00:36:12.840 --> 00:36:16.840
After all, his family made armaments for the military. Desert

527
00:36:16.920 --> 00:36:20.119
storm had inflated their net worth by hundreds of millions

528
00:36:20.159 --> 00:36:23.920
two years prior. Gamble didn't want to build weapons, however,

529
00:36:24.480 --> 00:36:28.000
he was a weapon. Every day went exactly the same,

530
00:36:28.480 --> 00:36:31.599
two scoops of Ultimate Orange to get him going. The

531
00:36:31.639 --> 00:36:34.880
ephedrin made his teeth grind and his ears hot, so

532
00:36:34.960 --> 00:36:37.679
he knew it was working. Then an hour on the

533
00:36:37.719 --> 00:36:42.000
total gym before breakfast. His diet never changed, nor did

534
00:36:42.000 --> 00:36:45.599
it need to. He'd structured his meals perfectly and followed

535
00:36:45.639 --> 00:36:49.119
each with beef liver tablets and amino acids. After the

536
00:36:49.159 --> 00:36:51.639
first meal of the day, he read from his collection

537
00:36:51.719 --> 00:36:55.639
of military manuals for two hours, then practiced martial arts.

538
00:36:56.239 --> 00:36:59.679
None of that strip mall taekwondo bullshit either. He was

539
00:36:59.719 --> 00:37:03.039
a student of the Dance of Death, an expert in

540
00:37:03.159 --> 00:37:07.039
dim Mock, and he'd trained with ninja masters throughout the Midwest.

541
00:37:07.639 --> 00:37:10.679
After lunch, he did firearms training in the kill house

542
00:37:10.679 --> 00:37:13.840
he'd built, followed by a five mile run around the

543
00:37:13.880 --> 00:37:18.199
property after a well airned shower. Damble spent his evenings

544
00:37:18.239 --> 00:37:21.239
looking for work. It seemed like every week a new

545
00:37:21.280 --> 00:37:25.119
mercenary outfit opened its doors, and none of them wanted

546
00:37:25.119 --> 00:37:28.480
to hire Travis. He took some odd jobs out of

547
00:37:28.559 --> 00:37:32.280
various classifieds, but the have gun, will travel stick was

548
00:37:32.320 --> 00:37:36.639
getting old. He wanted real action and he was about

549
00:37:37.119 --> 00:37:40.760
to get it. An increasing number of lawsuits were making

550
00:37:40.800 --> 00:37:44.760
it difficult for magazines to advertise his kind of work,

551
00:37:45.519 --> 00:37:48.639
but the Internet was quickly finding its way into every

552
00:37:48.719 --> 00:37:52.840
home in America. The message boards were full of opportunities,

553
00:37:53.360 --> 00:37:56.199
but he needed to get his name out there. He

554
00:37:56.239 --> 00:38:00.559
applied for three outfits in Somalia and another working the Balkins,

555
00:38:00.960 --> 00:38:03.679
before nodding off in the Lazy Boy with the latest

556
00:38:03.719 --> 00:38:08.079
issue of Gung Ho in his lap. A quarter past midnight,

557
00:38:08.159 --> 00:38:12.559
the overly excited salesman on TV woke him. Gamble watched

558
00:38:12.559 --> 00:38:16.559
the wiry little man with the pushbroom mustache excitedly Ramble

559
00:38:16.639 --> 00:38:20.280
on about the cheap junk he was hawking. That's when

560
00:38:20.280 --> 00:38:25.239
it hit him. Travis needed a commercial enter earnest valiant.

561
00:38:25.880 --> 00:38:30.199
Ernie had a certificate of completion from an advertising correspondence course,

562
00:38:30.599 --> 00:38:33.599
a big dream, and a bunch of video equipment he'd

563
00:38:33.599 --> 00:38:36.039
be paying on for the next decade if he didn't

564
00:38:36.039 --> 00:38:39.679
start finding gigs. His day job as assistant manager of

565
00:38:39.719 --> 00:38:44.000
the m Pornium almost paid his rent. Almost wasn't good

566
00:38:44.079 --> 00:38:47.559
enough for his landlord, unfortunately, so when some gun nut

567
00:38:47.679 --> 00:38:50.519
offered him twenty grand to shoot a two minute commercial,

568
00:38:51.079 --> 00:38:54.079
Ernie did what anyone would do. He lied his ass

569
00:38:54.119 --> 00:38:57.400
off to make sure he got the job. His seventy

570
00:38:57.440 --> 00:39:00.639
eight monsa wagon clanked and groaned up the ground path

571
00:39:00.719 --> 00:39:03.760
to Gamble's compound, and he pulled in front of the house.

572
00:39:04.440 --> 00:39:07.360
It was a strange structure that somehow managed to find

573
00:39:07.679 --> 00:39:12.800
synergy between Feudal Japan and Memphis Trailer Park. Sheik. Ernie

574
00:39:12.920 --> 00:39:15.639
kept his hand on the shifter, debating whether or not

575
00:39:15.800 --> 00:39:19.519
Gamble was an eccentric rich kid playing soldier or just

576
00:39:19.599 --> 00:39:23.039
another nut job with a manifesto. The size of the

577
00:39:23.079 --> 00:39:26.480
property told him that however it shook out, the check

578
00:39:26.800 --> 00:39:31.239
would still clear. He put the wagon in park. Ernie

579
00:39:31.239 --> 00:39:34.159
stepped out into the heat and humidity that seemed intent

580
00:39:34.239 --> 00:39:37.880
on sticking around despite it being the first week of fall.

581
00:39:38.639 --> 00:39:41.840
Music from behind the Redneck Pagoda told him where he'd

582
00:39:41.880 --> 00:39:46.239
find his benefactor. He listened for a moment, trying to

583
00:39:46.280 --> 00:39:50.320
place the song. What kind of soldier of fortune listens

584
00:39:50.360 --> 00:39:54.920
to prince, he wondered. Ernie shook it off and grabbed

585
00:39:54.920 --> 00:39:58.159
the JVC video camera from its case to look as

586
00:39:58.199 --> 00:40:03.039
professional as possible. When he rounded the house, Ernie's shoulders

587
00:40:03.079 --> 00:40:05.880
sagged at what he saw. It was like watching the

588
00:40:05.920 --> 00:40:09.800
training montage in one of those shitty blood fist sequels.

589
00:40:10.519 --> 00:40:14.360
Gamble occupied the center of a training platform surrounded by

590
00:40:14.400 --> 00:40:19.000
fixtures holding wooden boards and stacks of bricks. He fired

591
00:40:19.000 --> 00:40:22.599
off blows in the air with loud jaws in silk

592
00:40:22.639 --> 00:40:26.719
pants emblazoned with tigers on both sides. Once he finished

593
00:40:26.719 --> 00:40:30.920
the kata, Gamble bowed to an imagined sense and launched

594
00:40:30.960 --> 00:40:34.519
into a furious chain of attacks that left splintered lumber

595
00:40:34.679 --> 00:40:39.119
and crushed masonry in his wake. Maybe the commercial is

596
00:40:39.159 --> 00:40:43.440
for home depot, Ernie thought, with a quiet chuckle. Gamble

597
00:40:43.480 --> 00:40:48.679
bowed again and stepped down from the platform. You must be, Ernesto,

598
00:40:48.760 --> 00:40:53.199
he said, pulling a drenched sweatband from his high forehead. Somehow,

599
00:40:53.239 --> 00:40:57.960
his swazy level mullet was still pristine. I wasn't expecting

600
00:40:58.000 --> 00:41:02.199
you so early with a heavy foot, I guess. Ernie

601
00:41:02.280 --> 00:41:05.400
tried not to roll his eyes at the obvious bullshit

602
00:41:06.000 --> 00:41:09.719
he gestured at the former construction materials. I guess this

603
00:41:09.840 --> 00:41:12.760
is just a regular part of your day then, of course,

604
00:41:13.320 --> 00:41:16.599
Travis assured him. Every part of my body is an

605
00:41:16.679 --> 00:41:20.599
instrument of death. Taking a piss must be pretty intense.

606
00:41:21.079 --> 00:41:24.519
Ernie chuckled, but cleared his throat and regained his composure.

607
00:41:25.239 --> 00:41:29.199
So you think you could do that again? You said

608
00:41:29.199 --> 00:41:31.199
you were looking for a lot of action shots for

609
00:41:31.239 --> 00:41:35.039
the ad, and that was well, it was pretty action packed.

610
00:41:36.000 --> 00:41:40.239
That was nothing, Travis waved it off. No, Ernesto, you're

611
00:41:40.280 --> 00:41:43.199
going to be shooting real action. We'll get some b

612
00:41:43.400 --> 00:41:46.199
roll today. Of course, some of the training drills I

613
00:41:46.239 --> 00:41:49.840
used to keep myself highly dangerous, some workout shots to

614
00:41:49.840 --> 00:41:54.559
show off my bod. Maybe a dim mock demonstration too.

615
00:41:54.840 --> 00:41:57.960
That one come with a special sauce. Ernie bit his lip.

616
00:41:58.800 --> 00:42:02.920
It's the death touch, Gamble said, matter of factly, I

617
00:42:02.960 --> 00:42:06.119
can hit a man in the chest and rupture his cerebellum.

618
00:42:06.440 --> 00:42:09.960
It's about chi flow and utilizing the body's meridians to

619
00:42:10.039 --> 00:42:16.159
manifest an immediate fatal result. Sounds cool. Ernie nodded, how

620
00:42:16.239 --> 00:42:20.559
about we manifest you a commercial, and they did. Ernie

621
00:42:20.599 --> 00:42:24.679
filmed Gamble throwing ninja stars, doing push ups, shooting mannequins,

622
00:42:24.679 --> 00:42:27.800
and breaking bricks for the remainder of the day. Whenever

623
00:42:27.840 --> 00:42:30.760
it was time to switch tapes or batteries, Travis had

624
00:42:30.840 --> 00:42:34.559
him record audio for possible voiceovers, where he blathered about

625
00:42:34.800 --> 00:42:39.599
warrior cultures, recited macho one liners, and waxed poetic about

626
00:42:39.599 --> 00:42:44.360
the distinguished history of the mercenary profession. When they were finished,

627
00:42:44.440 --> 00:42:48.280
Travis insisted on them having dinner together, despite Ernie claiming

628
00:42:48.360 --> 00:42:51.920
every possible food allergy. To get out of it, Gamble

629
00:42:51.960 --> 00:42:55.159
brought out the mre rations and let his guests choose

630
00:42:55.199 --> 00:42:58.960
the entree. Ernie perused the shelf as he scooped what

631
00:42:59.079 --> 00:43:02.639
the package identify as beef stroganoff from the pouch with

632
00:43:02.679 --> 00:43:08.039
his plastic fork. You've read all these, Ernie asked, most

633
00:43:08.079 --> 00:43:11.320
of them. Gamble said, I'm still working my way through

634
00:43:11.320 --> 00:43:14.239
a poor Man's James Bond series. But I've committed the

635
00:43:14.280 --> 00:43:18.039
Anarchist Cookbook to memory, the same with the Art of War,

636
00:43:18.360 --> 00:43:21.960
Machiavelli's The Prince and the Book of Five Rings. I

637
00:43:22.039 --> 00:43:25.360
read one of the military training manuals every day. They're

638
00:43:25.400 --> 00:43:28.360
a bit too technical for recreational reading, but are an

639
00:43:28.400 --> 00:43:32.920
imperative part of my mission to be the world's greatest mercenary. Right,

640
00:43:33.800 --> 00:43:37.719
Ernie dropped the utensil into the ration pouch. I'd say,

641
00:43:37.760 --> 00:43:40.239
you're off to a good start. I'll go through what

642
00:43:40.280 --> 00:43:42.360
we shot and get you something this week that really

643
00:43:42.400 --> 00:43:48.519
captures your energy and badassness. Oh but that was just

644
00:43:48.559 --> 00:43:51.280
the filler. We haven't gotten to the good stuff yet,

645
00:43:51.599 --> 00:43:54.360
you know, the real meat and potatoes of what I'm doing.

646
00:43:55.400 --> 00:43:59.360
Hopefully those don't come in another of these pouches. Ernie scowled.

647
00:44:03.239 --> 00:44:05.880
He was sure he'd earned his paycheck after spending the

648
00:44:05.960 --> 00:44:09.039
day on the set of Enter the Douchebag. There was

649
00:44:09.079 --> 00:44:12.079
more than enough material to convince people he could intimidate

650
00:44:12.119 --> 00:44:15.199
their ex wives, or beat up the neighborhood bully, or

651
00:44:15.239 --> 00:44:18.079
whatever the fuck kind of work. Gamble thought. A highlight

652
00:44:18.079 --> 00:44:21.000
reel would rum up. We still have to shoot the

653
00:44:21.039 --> 00:44:27.239
action scenes, Travis told him. The karate wasn't the action ninjitsu.

654
00:44:27.840 --> 00:44:31.719
Travis corrected him, No, the action has to be authentic.

655
00:44:32.000 --> 00:44:35.360
It can't be training footage or stage fights. You are

656
00:44:35.400 --> 00:44:38.199
going to accompany me on a genuine assault of a

657
00:44:38.280 --> 00:44:43.480
terrorist compound. Yeah, I'm sorry to tell you this now,

658
00:44:43.559 --> 00:44:48.320
but I don't have a passport. Ernie shook his head. Besides,

659
00:44:48.360 --> 00:44:51.360
I have other clients this week, so I can't. You'll

660
00:44:51.360 --> 00:44:55.000
be home in time for frosted flakes, Travis interrupted with

661
00:44:55.039 --> 00:44:58.719
a smile. He hadn't done that all day. Ernie wished

662
00:44:58.719 --> 00:45:02.760
he hadn't then either. The expression made his skin prickle

663
00:45:02.760 --> 00:45:06.079
and his balls shrink up tight to his body. Gamble

664
00:45:06.119 --> 00:45:08.719
stalked across the living room and took the pouch from

665
00:45:08.800 --> 00:45:13.519
Ernie's hand with a delicate, almost loverlike movement. The smile

666
00:45:13.679 --> 00:45:17.440
grew wider. He pressed a finger to Ernie's lips as

667
00:45:17.480 --> 00:45:21.800
they started wriggling into an objection. I have something special

668
00:45:21.800 --> 00:45:30.280
for you to wear, he told the cameraman. The hour

669
00:45:30.360 --> 00:45:34.400
long drive through the Tennessee backwoods was filled with awkward silence.

670
00:45:35.039 --> 00:45:38.760
The men wore matching flak jackets, though Gamble wore his

671
00:45:38.840 --> 00:45:42.480
over his bare torso and camo stripes adorned his face

672
00:45:42.800 --> 00:45:47.000
and lean muscular arms. He'd given Ernie a kevlar helmet

673
00:45:47.039 --> 00:45:49.800
to match the body armor, but the would be murk

674
00:45:49.960 --> 00:45:54.559
didn't bother protecting his own head. It probably wasn't necessary anyhow,

675
00:45:54.760 --> 00:45:57.519
and it would have deprived him of the opportunity to

676
00:45:57.519 --> 00:46:00.639
be a stereotype while he tightened his headband around his

677
00:46:00.679 --> 00:46:05.119
brow like Rambo. Gamble had given Ernie little more information

678
00:46:05.239 --> 00:46:08.039
on their mission, only that there was a threat to

679
00:46:08.079 --> 00:46:11.840
the American way of life looming in the sticks southwest

680
00:46:11.880 --> 00:46:16.239
of Nashville. Ernie wasn't entirely convinced the story wasn't part

681
00:46:16.280 --> 00:46:20.239
of some kinky sex murder thing when they finally came

682
00:46:20.320 --> 00:46:23.480
to a stop. Sure, he hadn't been tied up, and

683
00:46:23.559 --> 00:46:26.400
he did have the surplus armor. But maybe it was

684
00:46:26.440 --> 00:46:30.800
all part of Gamble's strange fetish. Maybe the mercenary wanted

685
00:46:30.800 --> 00:46:32.960
them to go out into the woods and jump into

686
00:46:32.960 --> 00:46:37.000
each other's foxholes before killing Ernie in a friendly fire fantasy.

687
00:46:37.960 --> 00:46:40.559
That seemed to be the case. When Travis opened the

688
00:46:40.559 --> 00:46:43.719
glove box, Ernie swallowed hard at the sight of the

689
00:46:43.800 --> 00:46:49.000
cold blue steel within. Take that just in case, the

690
00:46:49.079 --> 00:46:52.719
merk said, Ernie slid the revolver out of the compartment

691
00:46:53.039 --> 00:46:55.719
and checked to see if it was loaded. It was

692
00:46:56.719 --> 00:47:00.360
that made the game a bit stranger. Ernie anged the

693
00:47:00.360 --> 00:47:03.239
barrel towards Gamble under his arm, just in case it

694
00:47:03.320 --> 00:47:07.679
was all a ruse. Why Why are we way out here,

695
00:47:08.079 --> 00:47:12.079
he muttered, I told you we're defending freedom and kicking ass.

696
00:47:12.599 --> 00:47:15.320
Gamble took a swig of Ultimate Orange from a travel

697
00:47:15.360 --> 00:47:20.000
mug before continuing. Saint Dimfna's youth asylum is three clicks

698
00:47:20.039 --> 00:47:24.599
through the woods and it's full of terrorists. Ernie shook

699
00:47:24.639 --> 00:47:27.920
his head vigorously. I'm here to film a commercial, call

700
00:47:28.000 --> 00:47:32.559
the FBI or something, why, Gamble got out of the truck.

701
00:47:33.280 --> 00:47:37.280
Ernie hesitantly followed him. The meager spray of moonlight coming

702
00:47:37.280 --> 00:47:39.960
through the trees made Gamble look like a mirage as

703
00:47:39.960 --> 00:47:43.840
he moved to the tailgate. Calm down, er, Nesto, They're

704
00:47:43.840 --> 00:47:48.360
not actual terrorists, Gamble assured him, They're just devil worshippers.

705
00:47:48.760 --> 00:47:51.480
It was either this or crash a drug lab. The

706
00:47:51.519 --> 00:47:56.039
second one might seem undemocratic. Of US, free market capitalism

707
00:47:56.119 --> 00:47:58.880
is the anchor that keeps America in the harbor of freedom.

708
00:47:58.920 --> 00:48:03.639
After all, we're going after the Satanists, easy peasy. Chances

709
00:48:03.639 --> 00:48:05.960
are they won't even be armed. It'll be a walk

710
00:48:05.960 --> 00:48:09.480
in the park. Have you walked through a fucking park lately?

711
00:48:10.159 --> 00:48:12.519
Ernie's voice cracked and he brought it back down to

712
00:48:12.559 --> 00:48:16.440
a whisper. People get murdered in parks. You're one guy.

713
00:48:16.960 --> 00:48:19.760
The police send an entire swat teams for things like this,

714
00:48:20.079 --> 00:48:23.199
And what the fuck do you mean? Chances are didn't

715
00:48:23.239 --> 00:48:25.719
you do some kind of recon or whatever it's called.

716
00:48:26.719 --> 00:48:29.559
We don't need a swat team. I'm better trained than

717
00:48:29.559 --> 00:48:35.000
those pussies. He unsnapped a plastic case. Plus, we have Sally,

718
00:48:36.519 --> 00:48:40.559
who's Sally Gamble held up the rifle. It looked like

719
00:48:40.639 --> 00:48:43.320
something out of a sci fi movie. He inserted a

720
00:48:43.360 --> 00:48:47.440
magazine and pulled back the charging handle. Sally is my babe,

721
00:48:47.960 --> 00:48:52.079
a Ruger Mini fourteen bullpup conversion with laser sighting and

722
00:48:52.119 --> 00:48:56.599
modified for full auto. She goes from Siesta to Fiesta

723
00:48:56.679 --> 00:48:59.880
with two pounds of trigger pressure. Each magazine is third

724
00:49:00.199 --> 00:49:04.000
rounds of mercury tipped boat tail hollow points that explode

725
00:49:04.000 --> 00:49:06.679
on impact and will turn this black mass into a

726
00:49:06.719 --> 00:49:12.519
Bielza bloodbath. That okay, yeah, so that was actually pretty clever.

727
00:49:13.159 --> 00:49:18.199
Ernie begrudgingly admitted, but that's one gun against an entire colt.

728
00:49:19.079 --> 00:49:22.880
I have another. Gamble pulled an obscenely long piece of

729
00:49:23.199 --> 00:49:26.760
overcompensation from the high mounted holster on his right leg.

730
00:49:27.599 --> 00:49:31.280
This is my mistress. She's a save me the guns

731
00:49:31.320 --> 00:49:35.400
and AMMO review, Gamble, I could get killed. Ernie pointed

732
00:49:35.440 --> 00:49:41.199
at the Mercenari's waist. Are those fucking nun chucks? Of course?

733
00:49:41.760 --> 00:49:45.039
Gamble holstered his pistol and removed a sword from his case.

734
00:49:46.119 --> 00:49:49.320
He pointed it at Ernie. We want the video to

735
00:49:49.360 --> 00:49:52.880
show off as many of my skills as possible. You're

736
00:49:52.880 --> 00:49:56.679
not filming a commercial. You're making a goddamn snuff film.

737
00:49:57.320 --> 00:50:00.719
Don't be ridiculous, Sir Nesto. He's she with the sword

738
00:50:00.760 --> 00:50:03.639
across his back. It's only a snuff film if someone

739
00:50:03.760 --> 00:50:07.719
jerks off to it. People jerk off to everything. You

740
00:50:07.760 --> 00:50:10.119
know what. The most rented movie at the Empornium was

741
00:50:10.199 --> 00:50:14.199
last month, Miss Piggy does Houston. Have you ever seen

742
00:50:14.239 --> 00:50:17.920
a muppet getting butt fucked by a grown man? Not

743
00:50:18.079 --> 00:50:21.920
since I rented the movie. Travis snickered and slapped Ernie

744
00:50:21.920 --> 00:50:25.360
on the shoulder. I'm fucking with you, man beating it

745
00:50:25.440 --> 00:50:29.119
lowers your testosterone. That's probably why you have man boobs.

746
00:50:29.159 --> 00:50:32.400
By the way, grab your camera, kermit, it's time to

747
00:50:32.400 --> 00:50:36.800
take Piggy out dancing. The night vision filter on the

748
00:50:36.800 --> 00:50:40.559
camera cast the structure in various shades of green and black.

749
00:50:41.199 --> 00:50:44.800
Vines and graffiti gave life to the drab, battered facade

750
00:50:45.079 --> 00:50:48.840
of the two story asylum. The architecture itself was as

751
00:50:48.840 --> 00:50:53.199
exciting as a lego. Brick bars sat over broken window panes,

752
00:50:53.239 --> 00:50:56.239
and a pair of heavy wooden doors stood wide open

753
00:50:56.599 --> 00:51:00.679
and half off their hinges. Headstones of pauper raves stood

754
00:51:00.719 --> 00:51:04.199
among knee high grass along the western side of the building.

755
00:51:05.039 --> 00:51:08.559
Ernie panned the camera there and spotted only the occasional

756
00:51:08.599 --> 00:51:12.000
blur of movement. As Travis Gamble closed in on the

757
00:51:12.039 --> 00:51:15.719
target through the cemetery, he actually looked like he knew

758
00:51:15.719 --> 00:51:19.239
what he was doing. Ernie redirected the camera to the hospital.

759
00:51:19.719 --> 00:51:23.519
Flickering light danced from some of the upstairs windows. Shadows

760
00:51:23.519 --> 00:51:26.519
fluttered on the walls, breaking up the verdant video feed

761
00:51:26.559 --> 00:51:31.360
with obsidian specters. Ernie fought back a nervous gag. Two

762
00:51:31.400 --> 00:51:33.800
people came around one side of the building in a

763
00:51:33.880 --> 00:51:38.360
lazy curve that skirted the boneyard. Ernie zoomed the camera

764
00:51:38.440 --> 00:51:42.039
in for a closer look. They wore matching outfits with

765
00:51:42.119 --> 00:51:45.920
sheepskin chaps and open robes. The camera was zoomed to

766
00:51:46.000 --> 00:51:48.800
its max, and the details of the medallions hanging around

767
00:51:48.840 --> 00:51:53.360
their necks were lost in the low resolution. Something flashed

768
00:51:53.360 --> 00:51:56.559
in the moonlight and spurts of black liquid gushed from

769
00:51:56.559 --> 00:51:59.840
one man's neck. Gamble sprang from the tall grass and

770
00:52:00.079 --> 00:52:02.960
launched himself in a flying kick that dropped the other.

771
00:52:03.639 --> 00:52:06.599
Gamble drew his sword, striking a pose with it before

772
00:52:06.639 --> 00:52:10.199
thrusting the blade into the prone guard. He pivoted to

773
00:52:10.239 --> 00:52:13.880
find the first man, still stumbling. The spurting had lost

774
00:52:13.920 --> 00:52:17.960
its intensity. Gamble swung the sword and the man's torso

775
00:52:18.119 --> 00:52:22.519
separated from his legs. Ernie spewed strogan off into the bushes.

776
00:52:23.119 --> 00:52:25.119
He'd have to edit that out of the footage later

777
00:52:25.920 --> 00:52:31.000
if he survived and escaped a prison sentence. Gamble waved

778
00:52:31.000 --> 00:52:33.840
for him to come. The cameraman, wiped his mouth on

779
00:52:33.880 --> 00:52:36.000
the back of his hand and debated, running back to

780
00:52:36.039 --> 00:52:40.000
the truck, static crackled in his ear. Come on, er,

781
00:52:40.039 --> 00:52:42.440
nesto get some close ups of these two before we

782
00:52:42.519 --> 00:52:46.480
go inside, Gamble said over the radio. This sword is

783
00:52:46.559 --> 00:52:49.320
ridiculously sharp. Did you see how it cleaved that d'

784
00:52:49.440 --> 00:52:52.760
and d geek in half? He'd seen it, and, thanks

785
00:52:52.800 --> 00:52:55.960
to the reminder, vomited once more before responding that he

786
00:52:56.079 --> 00:52:59.400
was on his way. By the time he arrived, Gamble

787
00:52:59.400 --> 00:53:01.559
had taken place position at the corner of the building

788
00:53:01.880 --> 00:53:05.639
to make his next move. Ernie dutifully filmed the corpses.

789
00:53:06.280 --> 00:53:09.119
Bubbles rose and popped from one of the victim's lips.

790
00:53:10.280 --> 00:53:13.719
Is this guy still alive? If he is, I want

791
00:53:13.760 --> 00:53:16.360
my money back for the sword, Gamble said, with a

792
00:53:16.400 --> 00:53:19.840
quick glance back. I stabbed him in the brain. Dufus,

793
00:53:20.039 --> 00:53:23.159
he's not alive. The bubble thing is air leaving his

794
00:53:23.239 --> 00:53:27.280
lungs since he's no longer using them. Oh, come on,

795
00:53:27.440 --> 00:53:30.559
the next part is going to happen pretty fast, Gamble said,

796
00:53:31.239 --> 00:53:35.519
It's all happening pretty fast, Ernie thought. The two men

797
00:53:35.559 --> 00:53:38.519
made their way along the front of the asylum. The

798
00:53:38.519 --> 00:53:41.679
mercenary made a show of checking the doorway before rolling

799
00:53:41.719 --> 00:53:44.199
through and sweeping the room with the barrel of his rifle.

800
00:53:45.079 --> 00:53:47.639
He gave a series of hand signals that hadn't been

801
00:53:47.639 --> 00:53:53.559
part of Ernie's limited briefing. Gamble side, come inside, he hissed.

802
00:53:54.440 --> 00:53:59.920
Ernie did so. He filmed the dilapidated interior. Pentagrams, sick

803
00:54:00.079 --> 00:54:02.719
six sixes, upside down crosses, and the rest of the

804
00:54:02.760 --> 00:54:06.800
satanic regalia pedaled by Hollywood had been spray painted wherever

805
00:54:06.880 --> 00:54:09.639
there wasn't a fisthole or a thick patch of black

806
00:54:09.719 --> 00:54:13.400
mold to obscure the canvas. Gamble started up in l

807
00:54:13.519 --> 00:54:17.960
shaped stairway while Ernie took some quick establishing shots. Hey,

808
00:54:18.480 --> 00:54:21.480
a voice called out, who the fuck are you, dick Weed.

809
00:54:22.119 --> 00:54:25.920
Ernie froze in place. I'm talking to you, jiz Stain.

810
00:54:26.280 --> 00:54:29.119
This is for black lambs only. What are you doing here,

811
00:54:29.679 --> 00:54:33.599
the gruff voice demanded, mostly trying not to ship myself

812
00:54:33.639 --> 00:54:37.800
at the moment, Ernie muttered He turned slowly. The man

813
00:54:37.880 --> 00:54:41.599
came closer, passing by a barrel of bursting detritus that

814
00:54:41.719 --> 00:54:44.400
cast a hell fire glow across the goat skull he'd

815
00:54:44.440 --> 00:54:48.880
fashioned into a mask. Ritual scars adorned his dark bare chest.

816
00:54:49.320 --> 00:54:52.559
His hand moved to the grip of a dagger. I asked,

817
00:54:52.559 --> 00:54:56.880
who the fuck you are? He growled, I'm I mean,

818
00:54:58.400 --> 00:55:03.519
I'm with ABC ABC. The guard stopped walking and drew

819
00:55:03.559 --> 00:55:07.039
the blade from its sheath. That stands for about to

820
00:55:07.079 --> 00:55:11.920
be castrated. God, I hope not. Ernie's free hand covered

821
00:55:11.920 --> 00:55:16.039
his crotch. We're doing a peace on religious freedom in America.

822
00:55:16.559 --> 00:55:18.679
I didn't realize you guys were having a meeting tonight.

823
00:55:18.719 --> 00:55:22.360
I'll come back later, only in a seance. Dick Weed.

824
00:55:23.239 --> 00:55:26.639
The man charged. Ernie aimed the camera at him, hoping

825
00:55:26.679 --> 00:55:29.440
his last moments would at least look cool if anyone

826
00:55:29.519 --> 00:55:33.599
ever found the footage. Then the killer grunted and toppled forward.

827
00:55:34.239 --> 00:55:38.199
The animal skull shattered, spreading bone like confetti across the

828
00:55:38.280 --> 00:55:42.599
dingy tile floor. Ernie moved the camera down, since looking

829
00:55:42.639 --> 00:55:45.480
at the carnage through the lens was easier on his stomach.

830
00:55:46.199 --> 00:55:49.079
Over half of the throwing star had buried itself into

831
00:55:49.119 --> 00:55:53.199
the coltest's brainstem. Smart thinking, not using the gun, I

832
00:55:53.280 --> 00:55:56.239
gave you, Gamble said over the radio, and waved him

833
00:55:56.239 --> 00:56:00.280
to follow upstairs. Yeah, I thought that was the best play.

834
00:56:00.840 --> 00:56:04.800
Ernie lied, he'd forgotten all about the magnum stuffed into

835
00:56:04.800 --> 00:56:09.000
his waistband he wouldn't next time. Ernie stepped around yet

836
00:56:09.000 --> 00:56:12.119
another dead body, wondering if Gamble might actually be the

837
00:56:12.159 --> 00:56:16.000
bad motherfucker he presented himself to be before jogging up

838
00:56:16.000 --> 00:56:19.719
the stairs as quickly as possible. Gamble stayed close to

839
00:56:19.760 --> 00:56:22.320
the wall as he stalked down the hallway with Sally

840
00:56:22.440 --> 00:56:26.360
pressed tight into his shoulder. Ernie tried to copy the movement,

841
00:56:26.679 --> 00:56:29.480
but it ruined his shot, and his sense of professionalism

842
00:56:29.719 --> 00:56:34.119
overrode his sense of self preservation. He stepped into the

843
00:56:34.119 --> 00:56:36.119
center of the hall for the best angle on the

844
00:56:36.119 --> 00:56:41.079
mercenary candles, some of them scented burned along the sides,

845
00:56:41.119 --> 00:56:44.800
providing only enough light to avoid tripping over scattered debris

846
00:56:44.960 --> 00:56:49.440
and refuse obscene chanting in a malevolent tongue carried from

847
00:56:49.480 --> 00:56:53.159
one of the rooms. Further along the path, A masculine,

848
00:56:53.199 --> 00:56:57.440
deep voice bellowed arcane words of power that crackled with

849
00:56:57.559 --> 00:57:03.239
artificial amplification. Devilry of the worshippers gained fervor. There were

850
00:57:03.280 --> 00:57:08.559
other sounds closer, but not as scary gasps, moans, squeals.

851
00:57:09.159 --> 00:57:12.800
Ernie's mind pushed them away and focused on the nefarious chanting.

852
00:57:13.480 --> 00:57:17.440
Gamble paused and peeked around an empty door jam. He

853
00:57:17.559 --> 00:57:20.760
ducked back, holding up a clenched fist that Ernie assumed

854
00:57:21.119 --> 00:57:25.320
meant stop. Gamble signaled for silence, and then pointed at

855
00:57:25.360 --> 00:57:29.320
the room. Ernie stepped cautiously as he maneuvered for a

856
00:57:29.320 --> 00:57:34.320
shot of whatever was waiting inside. His stomach pitched, but

857
00:57:34.400 --> 00:57:39.000
there was nothing left to throw up. Dozens of mutilated

858
00:57:39.039 --> 00:57:43.800
goats hung from the ceiling, some sacrificed so recently that

859
00:57:43.840 --> 00:57:47.639
the muscles still twitched and made them dance on their hooks.

860
00:57:48.280 --> 00:57:52.079
Guts dangled from their split torsos and trickled blood like

861
00:57:52.159 --> 00:57:56.559
broken faucets. Ernie followed a long rope of entrails with

862
00:57:56.639 --> 00:58:00.559
his camera down onto the occupants of the room. On

863
00:58:00.639 --> 00:58:04.360
a collection of mildewed mattresses and in puddles of spilled

864
00:58:04.440 --> 00:58:09.039
sacrificial offal. The coltists, wearing nothing but their woolen chaps,

865
00:58:09.400 --> 00:58:14.480
fucked in every conceivable position. Bloody skin slapped together and

866
00:58:14.599 --> 00:58:18.480
peeled apart again and again. A woman chewed at a

867
00:58:18.559 --> 00:58:23.119
length of intestine to muffle her orgasmic shrieking. Two of

868
00:58:23.159 --> 00:58:26.360
the men interlocked their hands in a mystic form as

869
00:58:26.400 --> 00:58:30.119
they thrust themselves into a third from opposite ends. A

870
00:58:30.199 --> 00:58:32.920
gory blonde held herself up by the rib cage of

871
00:58:32.920 --> 00:58:35.519
one of the animals, while three mouths went to work

872
00:58:35.760 --> 00:58:40.400
on different erogenous zones. Nothing at the Empornium compared to

873
00:58:40.400 --> 00:58:44.039
what Ernie was filming. He stole a glance around the hall,

874
00:58:44.119 --> 00:58:47.000
but kept the camera on the action. He was sure

875
00:58:47.039 --> 00:58:50.639
they couldn't see him recording, or his own cock straining

876
00:58:50.639 --> 00:58:54.760
against the fabric of his khakis. The blonde shuddered and squealed,

877
00:58:55.239 --> 00:59:00.679
then seemed to stare straight into Ernie's eyes. My eyes,

878
00:59:01.079 --> 00:59:05.760
he realized the blinking red recording light reflected off the

879
00:59:05.800 --> 00:59:09.239
fractured window behind her. Ernie moved his hand to the

880
00:59:09.239 --> 00:59:12.480
butt of the revolver. If she alerted the others, he

881
00:59:12.639 --> 00:59:15.800
was as good as dead. It was self defense, but

882
00:59:15.920 --> 00:59:18.480
that didn't make it easier to wrap his mind around.

883
00:59:18.639 --> 00:59:21.599
He didn't want to kill anyone. He wasn't sure if

884
00:59:21.639 --> 00:59:25.639
he could, despite how easy Gamble made it look. Speaking

885
00:59:25.679 --> 00:59:29.159
of the mercenary slid something from a pouch on his

886
00:59:29.159 --> 00:59:31.960
body armor. Ernie turned to get a better look at

887
00:59:31.960 --> 00:59:35.519
the cylindrical device through the night vision. The lens flashed

888
00:59:35.519 --> 00:59:38.679
with a sudden flare, and then sparks shimmered and fell

889
00:59:38.800 --> 00:59:43.199
like iridescent snowflakes from the top. Ernie's mind flashed back

890
00:59:43.239 --> 00:59:47.000
to the bookshelf at Gamble's place, to the black cookbook

891
00:59:47.280 --> 00:59:50.559
with the white letters on the spine. Gamble chucked the

892
00:59:50.599 --> 00:59:54.440
device into the room, then gestured frantically for Ernie to move.

893
00:59:55.039 --> 00:59:58.039
The camera went from the sparkling fuse to the confused

894
00:59:58.079 --> 01:00:02.000
faces of the orgy goers that noticed. Most kept on fucking,

895
01:00:02.119 --> 01:00:06.519
oblivious to the incendiary intrusion orgasms built around the room.

896
01:00:07.239 --> 01:00:10.400
Ernie scanned the crowd. The blonde was trying to warn

897
01:00:10.400 --> 01:00:14.280
the others, but stammered the words as her lovers continued biting, licking,

898
01:00:14.599 --> 01:00:18.320
and sucking at her flesh. Ernie couldn't make his feet move.

899
01:00:18.960 --> 01:00:21.800
He wanted to shout for everybody to run, but he

900
01:00:21.920 --> 01:00:26.159
only managed to lick his lips in anticipation. The swelling

901
01:00:26.199 --> 01:00:29.639
in his pants grew until it hurt. Lustful screams rose

902
01:00:29.679 --> 01:00:33.280
As the fuse shortened, Ernie dived away at the last second.

903
01:00:33.679 --> 01:00:38.039
The bomb exploded, and so did he. When the ringing left,

904
01:00:38.400 --> 01:00:41.360
he could hear that the room was still full of screams,

905
01:00:41.800 --> 01:00:49.639
just not the pleasurable kind. Ernie huffed in post orgasmic exhaustion. Shame, fear, guilt, embarrassment,

906
01:00:49.880 --> 01:00:53.199
and lingering arousal all swirled around in his skull like

907
01:00:53.239 --> 01:00:56.800
a witch's brew. He pulled himself into a fetal position

908
01:00:57.119 --> 01:01:00.400
as Gamble stepped into the doorway and opened fire on

909
01:01:00.440 --> 01:01:04.800
the survivors. Ernie forced himself onto his back to keep filming.

910
01:01:05.119 --> 01:01:08.440
The other coltists had stopped chanting and were storming the hallway.

911
01:01:09.079 --> 01:01:13.159
Gamble had greatly underestimated their numbers, but luckily not their armament.

912
01:01:13.800 --> 01:01:17.320
The MRK changed magazines and Sally sang like Streisand and

913
01:01:17.400 --> 01:01:23.519
his fists. Baseball sized holes opened and rampaging bodies. Heads exploded,

914
01:01:23.519 --> 01:01:26.679
Limbs and bits of ceremonial garb flew into the air.

915
01:01:27.320 --> 01:01:31.159
Another nail bomb slid down the corridor. Gamble fired from

916
01:01:31.199 --> 01:01:34.639
the hip as he straffed the Satanists with gunfire. The

917
01:01:34.679 --> 01:01:37.719
bomb went off, throwing corpses and pieces of them in

918
01:01:37.760 --> 01:01:41.719
all directions. Gamble let Sally hang from her sling as

919
01:01:41.719 --> 01:01:44.400
he helped Ernie to his feet. I sure hope you

920
01:01:44.480 --> 01:01:48.679
got all that on tape, he said, Uh huh. Ernie

921
01:01:48.719 --> 01:01:52.079
managed to squeak out. He was more concerned with hiding

922
01:01:52.119 --> 01:01:55.760
the stains spreading down his leg. I got it all right,

923
01:01:56.800 --> 01:01:59.679
Let's see what they were up to, Gamble suggested, as

924
01:01:59.679 --> 01:02:03.760
he yuarded through the smoldering sea of carnage, Nails stuck

925
01:02:03.760 --> 01:02:06.519
out of charred flesh, and the smell of burnt wool

926
01:02:06.639 --> 01:02:10.360
hung heavy in the air. Gamble's pistol boomed as he

927
01:02:10.400 --> 01:02:14.079
delivered his own sort of mercy to a still groaning victim.

928
01:02:14.360 --> 01:02:16.719
He guided Ernie to the last door on the left

929
01:02:16.920 --> 01:02:21.159
and swung inside with the hand cannon ready. Ernie whimpered,

930
01:02:21.760 --> 01:02:25.280
it wasn't nearly as pleasant as the previous room. The

931
01:02:25.280 --> 01:02:27.679
cymbals painted on the walls of the room were much

932
01:02:27.719 --> 01:02:31.239
more intricate and well crafted than the crude graffiti he'd

933
01:02:31.280 --> 01:02:35.480
seen upon entry to the asylum. This room wasn't for amateurs,

934
01:02:36.159 --> 01:02:39.559
he tried to blink away, pulling tears as he took

935
01:02:39.599 --> 01:02:44.199
it all in. Four hospital gurneys were lined up inside

936
01:02:44.199 --> 01:02:48.039
a circle of black candles. Each had a person strapped

937
01:02:48.039 --> 01:02:50.960
to it, and blood poured over the sides of three

938
01:02:51.000 --> 01:02:55.199
of them before disappearing down a floor drain. Ernie filmed

939
01:02:55.199 --> 01:02:59.519
the bodies first each was young, mid teens at the latest,

940
01:02:59.559 --> 01:03:03.639
with their chests torn open and their hearts burning inside.

941
01:03:03.760 --> 01:03:07.039
The pungent scent of incense rose from the low green

942
01:03:07.159 --> 01:03:11.800
flames engulfing the organs. A powerfully built man in heavy

943
01:03:12.079 --> 01:03:17.039
vermilion robes stood stoically over the only survivor. The skull

944
01:03:17.119 --> 01:03:19.760
of a big horn ram hid his face as he

945
01:03:19.840 --> 01:03:24.239
moved his glance from Gamble to Ernie. A prepubescent girl

946
01:03:24.360 --> 01:03:29.320
squirmed against her restraints before him. You should leave, the

947
01:03:29.360 --> 01:03:32.719
priest said, slipping the mask off and letting it shatter

948
01:03:32.800 --> 01:03:35.760
on the floor. The ritual is for the eyes of

949
01:03:35.840 --> 01:03:41.440
the faithful alone. The ritual's been canceled. Pal Gamble leveled

950
01:03:41.440 --> 01:03:44.559
his pistol at the man's chest. On the bright side,

951
01:03:45.039 --> 01:03:48.400
you're about to meet the devil in person. I already

952
01:03:48.480 --> 01:03:53.559
have you fool. The priest raised a double bladed sacrificial knife.

953
01:03:53.599 --> 01:03:57.440
You must leave while there's still time. This must end tonight.

954
01:03:57.840 --> 01:04:02.360
We must undo what. The gunshot boomed and echoed through

955
01:04:02.400 --> 01:04:06.559
the shower room. The priest's brains splattered the wall behind him.

956
01:04:07.000 --> 01:04:09.719
He stumbled back and forth, his eyes rolled up and

957
01:04:09.840 --> 01:04:13.679
crossed an attempt to see the puckered hole in his forehead.

958
01:04:14.239 --> 01:04:18.320
Gray matter slithered down the tile walls like slugs. The

959
01:04:18.320 --> 01:04:21.440
priest collapsed on top of the struggling child, and they

960
01:04:21.480 --> 01:04:25.760
slumped away in the heap. Ernie lowered the magnum's smoking

961
01:04:25.800 --> 01:04:28.960
barrel and let the gun clatter to the floor. God

962
01:04:29.079 --> 01:04:32.239
damn it, or Nesto Gamble jammed his own pistol into

963
01:04:32.280 --> 01:04:35.679
his holster. I was supposed to kill him. He looked

964
01:04:35.719 --> 01:04:38.760
at the camera, still trained on the gore spattered wall.

965
01:04:39.360 --> 01:04:44.320
He raised an eyebrow and nodded depreciatively. Wow, you made

966
01:04:44.320 --> 01:04:46.960
that shot without taking the camera off the guy, he

967
01:04:47.039 --> 01:04:51.000
said with amusement. Maybe with some creative editing, I can

968
01:04:51.039 --> 01:04:54.079
still take credit for it, for the sake of the commercial.

969
01:04:54.119 --> 01:04:57.159
I mean, but damn man, you are unnatural at this

970
01:04:57.280 --> 01:04:59.880
sort of thing. If we get you in shape and

971
01:05:00.000 --> 01:05:02.920
work on that vomiting problem you have, you could make

972
01:05:02.920 --> 01:05:06.000
a damn good mercenary yourself. I don't want to be

973
01:05:06.039 --> 01:05:09.719
a fucking mercenary, Ernie screamed. I just want to go

974
01:05:09.800 --> 01:05:12.880
back to my shitty fucking apartment, cry in my scuzzy

975
01:05:12.920 --> 01:05:20.159
shower and think happy fucking thoughts. Happy thoughts, the little

976
01:05:20.159 --> 01:05:28.480
girl said. She giggled melodically. Happy thoughts, Happy thoughts, there's

977
01:05:28.519 --> 01:05:31.480
you a happy thought? Er Nesto. Gamble moved to the

978
01:05:31.519 --> 01:05:35.519
gurney and started undoing the child's restraints. You rescued a

979
01:05:35.519 --> 01:05:38.719
little girl from a sick asshole. Sure I did most

980
01:05:38.719 --> 01:05:40.840
of the work, but you played a crucial role in

981
01:05:40.880 --> 01:05:45.199
the operation. Is that thought happy enough for you? Those

982
01:05:45.239 --> 01:05:48.719
aren't the thoughts that make Ernie happy? The girl said,

983
01:05:48.719 --> 01:05:54.239
in her sweet, dainty voice, Sarah is Ernie's happy thought.

984
01:05:55.039 --> 01:05:59.639
Who's Sarah? Your girlfriend? Gamble asked, do you know the

985
01:05:59.679 --> 01:06:04.239
rug hure? Ernie shook his head in equal confusion. That

986
01:06:04.480 --> 01:06:07.480
was her name, The blonde that looked you in the eyes,

987
01:06:08.159 --> 01:06:12.440
the sacrificial child, explained, the one you didn't try to warn,

988
01:06:13.000 --> 01:06:15.519
the one you were thinking about when the bomb went off,

989
01:06:15.800 --> 01:06:18.159
the one that made you come like a virgin in

990
01:06:18.199 --> 01:06:22.079
a stiff breeze. She's your happy thought, not the way

991
01:06:22.119 --> 01:06:27.440
she was then, but the way she is now. I

992
01:06:27.480 --> 01:06:32.840
think she's talking to you, Ernie stammered. No, The gravelly,

993
01:06:32.960 --> 01:06:36.920
malevolent voice boomed from the child's mouth. Her voice returned

994
01:06:36.960 --> 01:06:42.679
to its previous delicate playfulness as she continued, I know you, Ernie,

995
01:06:43.119 --> 01:06:45.800
You can't wait to get home and watch the footage.

996
01:06:46.079 --> 01:06:50.000
You want to touch yourself, to stroke your anorexic cock

997
01:06:50.039 --> 01:06:53.960
while you picture Sarah's smoldering flesh and the ravaged stumps

998
01:06:53.960 --> 01:06:56.360
that used to be her legs, pressing on the sides

999
01:06:56.400 --> 01:06:58.960
of your head while you lap at her ruptured gut.

1000
01:07:00.119 --> 01:07:03.920
That's pretty sick, man, Gamble said, with a disapproving glance

1001
01:07:03.960 --> 01:07:07.360
at Ernie. I don't know what she's talking about. She's

1002
01:07:08.119 --> 01:07:13.199
she's fucking traumatized or something. Oh please, she giggled and

1003
01:07:13.239 --> 01:07:16.960
sat up, suddenly snapping the remaining strap around her shoulders

1004
01:07:16.960 --> 01:07:20.599
with ease, An innocent smile formed on her tiny face.

1005
01:07:21.280 --> 01:07:24.679
I know all about the secret collection of videos, the

1006
01:07:24.719 --> 01:07:28.440
ones you rent out to special customers, the ones you

1007
01:07:28.519 --> 01:07:31.719
make at your cousin's mortuary with that adorable little gimp

1008
01:07:31.760 --> 01:07:35.639
mask on to hide your shame. She rolled off the gurney,

1009
01:07:35.719 --> 01:07:39.400
kneeling next to the priest. Gamble jumped clear and reached

1010
01:07:39.440 --> 01:07:43.519
instinctively for his pistol. The girl lifted the dead man's head.

1011
01:07:44.519 --> 01:07:47.159
You like corpses, but you've never gotten to see one

1012
01:07:47.239 --> 01:07:51.760
being made before, she continued, You've never had access to

1013
01:07:51.840 --> 01:07:55.599
ones as fresh as these. Tonight. The girl shoved her

1014
01:07:55.639 --> 01:07:58.360
fist into the back of the priest's skull and wiggled

1015
01:07:58.360 --> 01:08:01.400
her finger out of the entrance room. She laughed and

1016
01:08:01.440 --> 01:08:05.519
looked up at Gamble. What do you think, Travis. It

1017
01:08:05.599 --> 01:08:07.320
might be a bit of a tight fit, but I

1018
01:08:07.400 --> 01:08:09.440
bet our pal Ernie could have the time of his

1019
01:08:09.480 --> 01:08:15.199
life with this one. Listen, kid, Gamble started, Kid. The

1020
01:08:15.320 --> 01:08:19.920
child looked down at her floral dress and frilled socks. Oh, yes,

1021
01:08:20.520 --> 01:08:23.359
the little ones are so much easier to bargain with.

1022
01:08:24.000 --> 01:08:26.960
Promise them an ice cream, throw a kitten in, and

1023
01:08:27.039 --> 01:08:30.720
they'll invite any old soul in for a stay. The

1024
01:08:30.840 --> 01:08:34.000
child blinked away her blue eyes and replaced them with

1025
01:08:34.159 --> 01:08:40.039
red pupilless orbs. What in the hell? Travis stumbled back

1026
01:08:40.239 --> 01:08:44.479
and whipped his pistol from the holster. Yes, hell, indeed,

1027
01:08:45.239 --> 01:08:49.039
the child's voice deepened again. She stood, pulling off the

1028
01:08:49.079 --> 01:08:52.399
priest's head with ease and bowling it across the floor.

1029
01:08:53.000 --> 01:08:57.039
She pranced between two of the occupied gurneys. Inside. It's

1030
01:08:57.039 --> 01:08:59.640
a shame you didn't get here sooner to save the others.

1031
01:09:00.399 --> 01:09:03.439
We haven't had a boy's night out since Loudon. I

1032
01:09:03.479 --> 01:09:06.159
suppose I could burn down a convent in their honor.

1033
01:09:06.720 --> 01:09:10.560
That would do nicely, don't you think. Ernie knelt to

1034
01:09:10.600 --> 01:09:13.640
retrieve the revolver. When the gurneys flew across the room

1035
01:09:13.880 --> 01:09:17.680
and smashed the tilted walls into shards, the child held

1036
01:09:17.760 --> 01:09:21.960
up a finger and wiggled it disapprovingly. Her back rippled

1037
01:09:22.000 --> 01:09:25.439
with movement. Beneath her skin. An alarm clock chimed in

1038
01:09:25.479 --> 01:09:29.439
the corner. The girl snapped her fingers and it exploded,

1039
01:09:30.039 --> 01:09:33.880
its little brass bell pinged off Ernie's helmet. The child

1040
01:09:34.039 --> 01:09:40.239
levitated from the floor. Time's up, warranties expired, trial period over,

1041
01:09:40.800 --> 01:09:45.960
she growled. No refunds, no returns, and no fucking exchanges.

1042
01:09:46.479 --> 01:09:49.479
Here's a lesson. You won't live long enough to need, Travis.

1043
01:09:50.039 --> 01:09:55.000
Never summon what you can't put back. Gamble raised the pistol.

1044
01:09:55.399 --> 01:09:57.880
The metal fissured, and the weapon fell to pieces in

1045
01:09:57.960 --> 01:10:01.560
his hand. The girl floated around him and laughed demonically.

1046
01:10:02.439 --> 01:10:06.359
You wanted to go to war, Travis, so allow me

1047
01:10:06.520 --> 01:10:12.199
to oblige. First, we'll need an army. The child clapped

1048
01:10:12.199 --> 01:10:15.479
her hands and groans filled the corridors of the asylum.

1049
01:10:15.800 --> 01:10:19.960
The floor shook and fractured asbestos fell from the trembling ceiling.

1050
01:10:20.439 --> 01:10:23.840
Ernie looked over his shoulder and screamed. He stumbled further

1051
01:10:23.920 --> 01:10:27.359
into the room, making way for the shambling cadavers filing

1052
01:10:27.399 --> 01:10:31.960
through the doorway. Dismembered bodies crawled and hobbled, while disembodied

1053
01:10:32.000 --> 01:10:37.239
appendages slithered like caterpillars into the room. More moans emanated

1054
01:10:37.239 --> 01:10:41.479
from outside. Rotting children scaled the building, shaking off their

1055
01:10:41.479 --> 01:10:43.960
dirt of their graves as they clawed their way through

1056
01:10:44.000 --> 01:10:48.560
the crumbling walls. Sarah's buxom torso, with her bloodied blonde

1057
01:10:48.600 --> 01:10:52.039
hair hanging from her mangled scalp, scurried across the room

1058
01:10:52.079 --> 01:10:56.399
on ragged, nail studded stumps. Ernie shrieked in horror. As

1059
01:10:56.399 --> 01:10:59.920
the reanimated victims of the Asylum and Gambles Home perverse

1060
01:11:00.159 --> 01:11:05.279
roleplay converged on the mercenary. Gamble swung his nunchacoos at

1061
01:11:05.279 --> 01:11:09.199
them wildly. The wood thudded against the flesh and cracked bones,

1062
01:11:09.520 --> 01:11:13.079
but the assault didn't stop. Sarah rushed through the fracas

1063
01:11:13.159 --> 01:11:16.720
and clamped her teeth down on Gamble's crotch. His high

1064
01:11:16.720 --> 01:11:20.279
pitched screech disappeared in a cacophony of chewing and tearing

1065
01:11:20.560 --> 01:11:23.600
as he was swallowed by the mass of the necromantic mob.

1066
01:11:24.720 --> 01:11:28.279
Ernie staggered to the wall and slid down, unable to

1067
01:11:28.319 --> 01:11:30.880
take his eyes off the scene as he had been

1068
01:11:30.920 --> 01:11:35.119
with the orgy. That's what this is, he told himself.

1069
01:11:36.119 --> 01:11:40.720
This is another orgy. Flesh on flesh, mouths on flesh, penetration,

1070
01:11:41.039 --> 01:11:45.880
bodily fluids mingling, exchanging. He didn't want to admit it,

1071
01:11:46.760 --> 01:11:49.439
but it had the same stiffening effect on him as before.

1072
01:11:50.399 --> 01:11:54.560
The demon was right. He liked the dead. He liked

1073
01:11:54.600 --> 01:11:57.640
the way cold skin felt on his warm lips, and

1074
01:11:57.680 --> 01:12:01.119
the way it held him when he slipped inside. He

1075
01:12:01.199 --> 01:12:05.199
crawled across the floor tentatively. Gamble was crying under the

1076
01:12:05.239 --> 01:12:09.800
heap of undulating meat and viscera. Ernie crawled faster. He

1077
01:12:09.920 --> 01:12:14.000
sprang into the dogpile, guts squished between his fingers as

1078
01:12:14.000 --> 01:12:17.800
he buried himself in the carnage. Sarah chewed viciously at

1079
01:12:17.800 --> 01:12:20.880
Gamble's thigh, and Ernie grabbed a fistful of her hair

1080
01:12:20.960 --> 01:12:24.359
to pull her face up to his. They came forward

1081
01:12:24.359 --> 01:12:27.520
to meet in a kiss, playfully passing a piece of

1082
01:12:27.560 --> 01:12:31.800
Gamble between their mouths. The child's laughter echoed through the

1083
01:12:31.880 --> 01:12:39.920
asylum as the building collapsed in on itself. The helmet

1084
01:12:39.960 --> 01:12:43.399
Travis had given him saved Ernie's life. It took a

1085
01:12:43.439 --> 01:12:46.680
few hours to crawl out of the rubble, but he managed.

1086
01:12:48.119 --> 01:12:50.880
He walked through the forest hand in hand with Sarah

1087
01:12:50.960 --> 01:12:53.720
until the last bits of sinew tore and the arm

1088
01:12:53.840 --> 01:12:56.720
came free from the rest of the Torso it was

1089
01:12:56.760 --> 01:13:01.399
probably for the better. Whirlwind romances never seemed to last, anyhow.

1090
01:13:02.039 --> 01:13:04.840
He kept the arm though, for the long drive home.

1091
01:13:05.600 --> 01:13:08.199
Rigor was setting in and it would give him one

1092
01:13:08.279 --> 01:13:11.840
hell of a squeeze. Ernie hadn't just survived the night

1093
01:13:12.359 --> 01:13:15.880
he'd been reborn. He had a new understanding of who

1094
01:13:15.920 --> 01:13:19.760
he was and what he needed to do with his life.

1095
01:13:19.840 --> 01:13:21.880
You can't wait for the things you want to come

1096
01:13:21.920 --> 01:13:24.560
to you in life, No, you have to go out

1097
01:13:24.600 --> 01:13:28.479
and find them yourself. He'd go back to Gamble's home.

1098
01:13:29.079 --> 01:13:31.520
The books and weapons there were just what he needed.

1099
01:13:32.479 --> 01:13:36.760
Sarah had been special, if only for one night, but

1100
01:13:36.880 --> 01:13:40.560
she'd shown him what his life was missing. He pulled

1101
01:13:40.600 --> 01:13:45.520
the revolver from his waistband and smiled. Ernie just needed

1102
01:13:45.560 --> 01:14:00.560
to find someone to love. Breaking the Seal by Douglas Waltz.

1103
01:14:03.199 --> 01:14:05.600
The sharp pain in my head was what woke me

1104
01:14:05.720 --> 01:14:10.920
from my unconscious state. My head felt like thin glass

1105
01:14:11.079 --> 01:14:15.479
ready to break without warning. Drinking always did that to me.

1106
01:14:16.640 --> 01:14:19.520
The sudden urge to use the bathroom is what convinced

1107
01:14:19.520 --> 01:14:23.119
me to actually leave the warmth of my bed. I

1108
01:14:23.119 --> 01:14:26.920
ignored the protests of my aching head and realized I

1109
01:14:26.920 --> 01:14:30.960
had fallen asleep with my pants on. A fuzzy memory

1110
01:14:31.079 --> 01:14:33.399
led me to believe that there should have been someone

1111
01:14:33.439 --> 01:14:36.520
else in bed with me. The state of the blankets

1112
01:14:36.560 --> 01:14:39.119
on the far side of the bed confirmed this, but

1113
01:14:39.960 --> 01:14:44.359
there was no one there. I shrugged and staggered down

1114
01:14:44.399 --> 01:14:47.800
the hallway to the bathroom. I didn't even try to

1115
01:14:47.880 --> 01:14:51.840
unzip my pants. I unzipped them and dropped them to

1116
01:14:51.920 --> 01:14:56.199
the cool tile floor. My bladder protested at the delay,

1117
01:14:56.560 --> 01:14:59.279
and I lifted the lid to let loose the contents

1118
01:14:59.359 --> 01:15:04.680
of said blood. Filled with the previous nights drinking, the

1119
01:15:04.840 --> 01:15:07.479
urine erupted from me with a force I had never

1120
01:15:07.560 --> 01:15:11.720
seen before. I instantly grabbed my penis as it started

1121
01:15:11.720 --> 01:15:15.039
to travel up, splashing the entire lid and the back

1122
01:15:15.119 --> 01:15:17.600
of the toilet. I was sure it would have hit

1123
01:15:17.640 --> 01:15:20.720
the ceiling if I hadn't interfered by aiming it back

1124
01:15:20.720 --> 01:15:24.239
in the bowl. The water in the bowl churned and

1125
01:15:24.359 --> 01:15:27.760
frothed from the sheer velocity of the stream of urine

1126
01:15:27.800 --> 01:15:32.920
coming from me. To be honest, I had never experienced

1127
01:15:32.920 --> 01:15:36.640
a piss like this before. Usually there is the initial

1128
01:15:36.680 --> 01:15:41.000
relaxation upon release, but now it was more of a

1129
01:15:41.119 --> 01:15:45.920
sense of panic. It was then I realized two things.

1130
01:15:46.800 --> 01:15:49.840
The bowl of the toilet was filling rapidly, and my

1131
01:15:49.960 --> 01:15:53.880
stream of urine had not decreased in the slightest still

1132
01:15:54.000 --> 01:15:57.119
churning the water like an outboard motor, I flushed the

1133
01:15:57.119 --> 01:16:01.920
toilet and continued to urinate. The flushing barely stayed ahead

1134
01:16:01.920 --> 01:16:04.800
of what was coming out of me. It already felt

1135
01:16:04.840 --> 01:16:08.640
like I had been there longer than was normal. Looking down,

1136
01:16:08.720 --> 01:16:13.560
I noticed something on my chest. What the hell was

1137
01:16:13.600 --> 01:16:16.680
on my chest? I turned the top half of me

1138
01:16:16.800 --> 01:16:20.600
towards the bathroom mirror over the sink and nearly jumped

1139
01:16:20.600 --> 01:16:26.239
out of my skin. There was a bloody pentagram on

1140
01:16:26.319 --> 01:16:30.600
my chest. Why was there a bloody pentagram on my chest?

1141
01:16:31.560 --> 01:16:35.880
I tentatively touched it and was mildly surprised it didn't hurt.

1142
01:16:37.000 --> 01:16:40.359
I snapped out of the examination of this new discovery

1143
01:16:40.359 --> 01:16:45.520
to flush the toilet again before it overflowed. My finger

1144
01:16:45.600 --> 01:16:48.680
had what looked like blood on it, but I figured

1145
01:16:48.720 --> 01:16:52.239
it wasn't mine. That led to a whole new list

1146
01:16:52.279 --> 01:16:55.800
of questions. As the urine continued to flow with the

1147
01:16:55.840 --> 01:16:59.760
same velocity as it had when it started. The upper

1148
01:16:59.760 --> 01:17:03.640
most in my mind would be whose blood was on

1149
01:17:03.720 --> 01:17:08.119
my chest? In the form of a pentagram. Then my

1150
01:17:08.279 --> 01:17:11.680
phone rang, I jumped from the sudden noise in urine

1151
01:17:11.720 --> 01:17:16.119
splashed the wall behind the toilet. I had apparently left

1152
01:17:16.159 --> 01:17:18.840
my phone in my pants pocket when I fell asleep.

1153
01:17:19.760 --> 01:17:22.359
How much did I have to drink last night? I

1154
01:17:22.479 --> 01:17:25.000
wondered as I tried to figure out a plan to

1155
01:17:25.039 --> 01:17:29.920
retrieve my phone from my pants. First, I flushed again

1156
01:17:30.720 --> 01:17:33.000
when I pushed down the handle, for at least what

1157
01:17:33.119 --> 01:17:36.439
I thought was the fourth or fifth time. It hit

1158
01:17:36.520 --> 01:17:40.800
me I had just fallen into a routine where flushing

1159
01:17:40.800 --> 01:17:44.600
the toilet repeatedly was part of my life. Now my

1160
01:17:44.760 --> 01:17:47.479
skin crawled with panic as I reached out for the

1161
01:17:47.560 --> 01:17:50.159
leg of my pants and dragged it closer to me.

1162
01:17:51.359 --> 01:17:54.039
I thought I could just force my kegel muscles to

1163
01:17:54.079 --> 01:17:56.960
stop the flow of piss long enough to reach down

1164
01:17:57.039 --> 01:18:02.760
and grab my pants. That was a a horrible idea.

1165
01:18:03.439 --> 01:18:06.479
The attempt was met by a lancing, white hot pain

1166
01:18:06.600 --> 01:18:12.399
in my penis, and it accomplished absolutely nothing. The urine

1167
01:18:12.439 --> 01:18:15.720
continued to flow, and I screamed from the agony. My

1168
01:18:15.840 --> 01:18:19.159
head erupted in sweat, and I saw little black dots

1169
01:18:19.520 --> 01:18:23.000
swimming in my field of vision. I knew I couldn't

1170
01:18:23.079 --> 01:18:27.119
pass out. I was absolutely positive that even unconscious, I

1171
01:18:27.159 --> 01:18:30.479
would continue to piss, filling the room in no time.

1172
01:18:31.680 --> 01:18:34.600
I was in a ground floor apartment, so the piss

1173
01:18:34.640 --> 01:18:38.560
would have nowhere to go. I took some deep breaths

1174
01:18:39.560 --> 01:18:45.680
and relaxed and continued to drag the pants closer. The

1175
01:18:45.760 --> 01:18:48.239
ringing had stopped, but now that I knew my phone

1176
01:18:48.319 --> 01:18:51.279
was in the room, I had a lifeline to the

1177
01:18:51.319 --> 01:18:55.000
outside world. But there was no way I was going

1178
01:18:55.039 --> 01:18:58.439
to be able to pick up the pants and emerge unscathed.

1179
01:18:59.399 --> 01:19:02.920
I glanced over my shoulder at the bathtub and knew

1180
01:19:02.960 --> 01:19:06.319
what was going to happen. It was my only option.

1181
01:19:07.279 --> 01:19:10.680
I continued to hold my penis and squatted, grabbing my

1182
01:19:10.840 --> 01:19:14.720
pants and took the three steps to the bathtub and

1183
01:19:14.840 --> 01:19:18.199
hopped in. I pulled the curtain to contain the flow

1184
01:19:18.399 --> 01:19:22.000
and held my pants away from the stream. I realized

1185
01:19:22.039 --> 01:19:24.079
that I would need both hands to get the phone

1186
01:19:24.119 --> 01:19:28.720
out of my jeans. I took another deep breath, released

1187
01:19:28.720 --> 01:19:32.399
my cock from my hand, and went for it. Five

1188
01:19:32.479 --> 01:19:34.960
seconds later, I had my phone in my right hand,

1189
01:19:35.479 --> 01:19:38.439
my penis back in my left hand, and there was

1190
01:19:39.199 --> 01:19:42.600
piss in my hair. The call had come from my

1191
01:19:42.680 --> 01:19:45.560
friend Nate. I checked the message he left and had

1192
01:19:45.600 --> 01:19:49.840
answered more than a few questions. Apparently, at my buddy

1193
01:19:49.920 --> 01:19:53.079
Nate's house, we had been slamming shots and beer like

1194
01:19:53.159 --> 01:19:56.359
they were water. When I'm drunk, I've been told that

1195
01:19:56.439 --> 01:20:01.199
I become aggressively horny. I had left with a girl

1196
01:20:01.279 --> 01:20:05.319
he called Twitch the witch. He was checking up on me.

1197
01:20:06.279 --> 01:20:09.199
I called him back and asked him about the evening.

1198
01:20:09.920 --> 01:20:12.720
I also found out the reason for the odd name

1199
01:20:12.880 --> 01:20:16.680
for my choice of female companionship for that night. She

1200
01:20:16.840 --> 01:20:19.840
was always showing up at parties and tweaking out on meth.

1201
01:20:20.880 --> 01:20:23.680
Usually she drank a lot, caused a scene, and that

1202
01:20:23.880 --> 01:20:26.800
was the end of it. But my horny vision had

1203
01:20:26.800 --> 01:20:31.600
selected her for my advances and we'd left together. Nate

1204
01:20:31.680 --> 01:20:35.199
also mentioned that she was a practicing witch. When he

1205
01:20:35.279 --> 01:20:37.920
asked if I was next to a stream or something.

1206
01:20:37.960 --> 01:20:40.600
I just ignored it and asked if he had her number.

1207
01:20:41.399 --> 01:20:45.880
Nate has everybody's number, she answered on the first ring.

1208
01:20:46.560 --> 01:20:48.800
I could hear the sneer in her voice when she

1209
01:20:48.880 --> 01:20:52.359
asked how my morning piss went, and I realized my

1210
01:20:52.479 --> 01:20:57.920
drunken personality had taken things way too far. After much

1211
01:20:58.000 --> 01:21:01.920
pleading and begging, she felt that I had been punished enough.

1212
01:21:02.840 --> 01:21:05.239
I gave her my address, and she said she had

1213
01:21:05.279 --> 01:21:10.760
two requirements for removing the curse. One she had something

1214
01:21:10.800 --> 01:21:14.000
else to do, and it would be an hour two

1215
01:21:14.319 --> 01:21:17.880
to complete my utter humiliation, I would have to meet

1216
01:21:17.920 --> 01:21:23.680
her outside. I agreed to the terms because I didn't

1217
01:21:23.720 --> 01:21:27.319
see any other way out of an impossible situation. But

1218
01:21:27.680 --> 01:21:31.560
at the same time, my alcohol riddled brain saw a

1219
01:21:31.640 --> 01:21:37.840
way to decrease my utter humiliation. I used my delivery

1220
01:21:37.840 --> 01:21:40.239
app on my phone to order a pack of super

1221
01:21:40.319 --> 01:21:45.199
absorbent adult diapers and a pair of oversized sweatpants. I

1222
01:21:45.319 --> 01:21:48.239
even left a huge tip to make sure they were

1223
01:21:48.319 --> 01:21:52.439
left by my doorstep. The delivery got there with ten

1224
01:21:52.479 --> 01:21:56.960
minutes to spare before Twitch had scheduled to arrive, plenty

1225
01:21:56.960 --> 01:22:00.960
of time. I bawled up my genes, held them against

1226
01:22:01.000 --> 01:22:04.319
my penis, and ran for the front door. I flung

1227
01:22:04.359 --> 01:22:07.119
it open, grabbed the bag, and made a dash back

1228
01:22:07.159 --> 01:22:11.039
to the bathroom. The jeans were already soaked, but the

1229
01:22:11.079 --> 01:22:15.880
stream was blocked sufficiently that there wasn't piss everywhere. I

1230
01:22:16.000 --> 01:22:18.479
dropped the bag on the sink and stood in the

1231
01:22:18.520 --> 01:22:22.159
bathtub while I familiarized myself with how the diapers worked.

1232
01:22:22.840 --> 01:22:25.319
It was a pack of twenty, but I was only

1233
01:22:25.359 --> 01:22:29.000
going to need about four to pull this off. I

1234
01:22:29.119 --> 01:22:32.279
was interrupted by a text from Twitch telling me she

1235
01:22:32.359 --> 01:22:35.319
was parking her car and on her way to my apartment.

1236
01:22:36.239 --> 01:22:39.399
I strapped on the first diaper and layered it with

1237
01:22:39.479 --> 01:22:43.880
four more. Then I pulled on the sweatpants. I was

1238
01:22:43.960 --> 01:22:48.880
glad they were black hides the piss better. That made

1239
01:22:48.920 --> 01:22:52.640
me laugh for some reason. I stuffed two more down

1240
01:22:52.640 --> 01:22:54.760
the front of my pants and headed for the door.

1241
01:22:55.720 --> 01:22:59.159
Opening the door, I saw Twitch across the street. At

1242
01:22:59.239 --> 01:23:02.399
least I assumed it was her. She was the only

1243
01:23:02.479 --> 01:23:05.560
person dressed in black goth clothes with a head of

1244
01:23:05.600 --> 01:23:10.159
shocking green hair. An evil smile crossed her face when

1245
01:23:10.199 --> 01:23:13.159
we made eye contact, and she stepped off the curb

1246
01:23:13.279 --> 01:23:19.159
to cross the street. The landscaping truck never saw I

1247
01:23:19.279 --> 01:23:21.439
live on a main road with a speed limit of

1248
01:23:21.479 --> 01:23:24.920
forty five miles per hour, and she bounced off the

1249
01:23:24.920 --> 01:23:28.399
front grill of that truck and was sucked under the vehicle.

1250
01:23:29.399 --> 01:23:35.000
The loudest sickening crunch filled the air, followed immediately by

1251
01:23:35.039 --> 01:23:40.560
the screeching of the truck's brakes. Twich lay mangled on

1252
01:23:40.640 --> 01:23:44.359
the road, her eyes wide open and staring at me.

1253
01:23:45.600 --> 01:23:50.439
Blood and gray matter trickled down her ruined face. The

1254
01:23:50.520 --> 01:23:54.039
diapers had lost the battle, and twin jets of pists

1255
01:23:54.079 --> 01:23:57.960
shot down both my legs, onto the sidewalk and into

1256
01:23:58.000 --> 01:24:02.119
the street. I knew the urine would reach Twitch and

1257
01:24:02.199 --> 01:24:14.720
I started to laugh. The end The Bad Schoolgirl by

1258
01:24:14.880 --> 01:24:19.760
Rob Fields. I walk into the main entrance of Strickfield

1259
01:24:19.840 --> 01:24:24.279
High School with a lean donnerly or just simply Einstein.

1260
01:24:25.039 --> 01:24:28.159
Einstein was a name her older brother, Martin hung on

1261
01:24:28.239 --> 01:24:32.840
her because of how unbelievably smart she is, how smart

1262
01:24:32.920 --> 01:24:37.600
exactly is she? Well? Over that blizzard weekend, Martin and

1263
01:24:37.680 --> 01:24:41.640
I had just finished having some hot morning fucking We

1264
01:24:41.680 --> 01:24:44.119
stopped for some pillow talk, and he told me that

1265
01:24:44.159 --> 01:24:48.680
Einstein once took his HDTV apart. She easily put it

1266
01:24:48.720 --> 01:24:51.680
back together, but now he could access all of the

1267
01:24:51.720 --> 01:24:57.199
satellite channels and streaming services for free. She even doubled

1268
01:24:57.199 --> 01:25:00.279
the picture quality. I look at the geek now and

1269
01:25:00.399 --> 01:25:03.680
just want to ring her fucking neck, but of course

1270
01:25:03.920 --> 01:25:07.479
I won't. The problem with Einstein is that she's always

1271
01:25:07.479 --> 01:25:12.560
so fucking direct with me. She never sugarcoats shit. For example,

1272
01:25:12.920 --> 01:25:15.159
I asked her why I fucking put up with her.

1273
01:25:15.920 --> 01:25:18.680
I would have expected her to say because I'm sleeping

1274
01:25:18.720 --> 01:25:21.960
with Martin, but no, she says it's because she's so

1275
01:25:22.119 --> 01:25:27.479
cute that I really like her. I do have to

1276
01:25:27.560 --> 01:25:31.319
admit Ainie is cute. I also have to admit the

1277
01:25:31.319 --> 01:25:35.199
little shit does grow on you. We're walking the halls

1278
01:25:35.239 --> 01:25:39.279
of Strickfield High, and I know I'm in hell. Just

1279
01:25:39.319 --> 01:25:41.279
a few days ago, I had to deal with Jaren

1280
01:25:41.359 --> 01:25:44.920
Hatley when she was on the Ultimate Caffeine High and

1281
01:25:45.479 --> 01:25:49.039
tried to send Principal Matthew Van Diist on a permanent vacation.

1282
01:25:49.880 --> 01:25:52.880
Speaking of whom, He's standing right outside the door of

1283
01:25:52.920 --> 01:25:55.960
the main office and he's eyeing both me and iine

1284
01:25:56.560 --> 01:25:58.680
I'll tell him to fuck off if he says something

1285
01:25:58.680 --> 01:26:02.319
to me, but he doesn't. He's definitely checking me out,

1286
01:26:02.359 --> 01:26:04.920
all right. Either he's got an eye for me, or

1287
01:26:05.640 --> 01:26:09.720
it's the fact that I'm wearing this fucking schoolgirl outfit again.

1288
01:26:10.439 --> 01:26:13.840
Plaid mini skirt, white blouse with the sleeves torn off

1289
01:26:14.039 --> 01:26:16.960
and tied up to my tummy, and my eighties rebock

1290
01:26:17.000 --> 01:26:21.399
pump basketball shoes. I've been wearing this fucking outfit because

1291
01:26:21.439 --> 01:26:24.399
if I wear any of Ainy's other clothes, I'd feel

1292
01:26:24.439 --> 01:26:28.319
batshit claustrophobic and shred them. And I don't really want

1293
01:26:28.319 --> 01:26:32.600
to go shopping for new clothes. Okay, Iiny wear. Are

1294
01:26:32.640 --> 01:26:35.840
these vampire cheerleaders you want me to check out? I ask?

1295
01:26:36.760 --> 01:26:39.720
They usually hang out in the north hall. Ainy replies

1296
01:26:40.000 --> 01:26:44.000
in her mousey voice. This way, I let Aine lead

1297
01:26:44.079 --> 01:26:48.079
me to said hallway. Sure enough, six cheerleaders are huddled

1298
01:26:48.079 --> 01:26:52.039
together and yacking away. I immediately see the items of

1299
01:26:52.159 --> 01:26:57.479
old bloodstone they're wearing as jewelry. Old is spelled old

1300
01:26:57.560 --> 01:27:01.199
with an E on the end. See, I'm the only

1301
01:27:01.479 --> 01:27:06.000
vampire who can truly walk freely in the daylight. These

1302
01:27:06.079 --> 01:27:09.399
bitches are using old bloodstone to be able to walk

1303
01:27:09.439 --> 01:27:12.680
in the daytime and not burn ainy, and I just

1304
01:27:12.760 --> 01:27:16.359
walk right past them. Then I start hearing nearby jocks

1305
01:27:16.479 --> 01:27:21.039
whooping and hollering. Turns out they're doing it to me.

1306
01:27:22.119 --> 01:27:26.319
It's the bad schoolgirl. You're such a badass. Will you

1307
01:27:26.600 --> 01:27:32.079
marry me? How about a date, babe? And that definitely

1308
01:27:32.119 --> 01:27:36.800
pisses off the cheerleaders. Remember, most cheerleaders love the attention

1309
01:27:37.000 --> 01:27:39.640
since they are at the top of the food chain

1310
01:27:39.680 --> 01:27:42.720
in the female circuit of high schools. Now that they've

1311
01:27:42.720 --> 01:27:46.319
seen me, they're not going to be so happy. In fact,

1312
01:27:46.600 --> 01:27:50.199
they all turn towards me in advance. The hallway gets

1313
01:27:50.279 --> 01:27:54.359
quiet in a big fucking hurry. I'm ready to defend

1314
01:27:54.399 --> 01:27:58.359
iiny if they decide to vamp out. Who said you

1315
01:27:58.359 --> 01:28:04.319
could walk our hallway, bitch? Alyssa Meren demands her twin sister,

1316
01:28:04.439 --> 01:28:08.880
Ali grins. This is our hallway. You need special permission

1317
01:28:08.920 --> 01:28:12.079
to walk it. How much money you got? The other

1318
01:28:12.199 --> 01:28:17.479
four just look on in anticipation. I really feel the

1319
01:28:17.520 --> 01:28:20.720
need to laugh. I'll let you in on a little secret.

1320
01:28:21.279 --> 01:28:23.840
Being the one unique type of vamp that I am

1321
01:28:24.159 --> 01:28:27.239
means that I can detect other vamps, whether they're master

1322
01:28:27.479 --> 01:28:32.560
or not. Now these bitches are just regular vamps, which

1323
01:28:32.600 --> 01:28:38.279
means they think I'm completely human. Only other master vamps

1324
01:28:38.279 --> 01:28:42.880
can detect me. In this case, they don't notice my

1325
01:28:43.039 --> 01:28:48.600
eyes are red. I give them the same sexy smile

1326
01:28:48.680 --> 01:28:54.000
that Martin loves so much. Oh, you two are so cute.

1327
01:28:54.680 --> 01:28:59.119
I raise my finger. How about this? You two can

1328
01:28:59.159 --> 01:29:02.680
take turns sucking my dick, and I'll come and go

1329
01:29:02.760 --> 01:29:06.520
wherever the fuck I like. The twins just look at

1330
01:29:06.520 --> 01:29:10.039
each other, mouths wide. They're ready to start a full

1331
01:29:10.119 --> 01:29:14.119
on fight with me. I quickly raise my arm. Now's

1332
01:29:14.159 --> 01:29:16.800
not the time. I give them a quick nod to

1333
01:29:16.840 --> 01:29:20.239
my right. They look to see Principal van Deist staring

1334
01:29:20.279 --> 01:29:23.920
attentively down this hallway. The twins each raise a hand,

1335
01:29:24.039 --> 01:29:27.079
telling the others to back off. We'll let you go

1336
01:29:27.239 --> 01:29:31.920
this one time as a courtesy. Ali says, next time

1337
01:29:31.920 --> 01:29:36.199
you come down here, you'll be paying. Alyssa adds. I

1338
01:29:36.359 --> 01:29:39.880
laugh as Ainy and I turn and walk away. Ainie

1339
01:29:39.920 --> 01:29:44.640
asks me, you think that was wise? Bells what pissing

1340
01:29:44.640 --> 01:29:47.880
them off? Fuck? Yeah, they'll be looking for me exactly

1341
01:29:47.920 --> 01:29:51.359
what I want. I lightly slap her shoulder. Don't worry,

1342
01:29:51.760 --> 01:29:55.119
I've got a plan. And then I smell Principal Vandist

1343
01:29:55.239 --> 01:29:57.880
coming our way. I wait for him to reach us.

1344
01:29:58.479 --> 01:30:02.279
What can I do for you on this very fine day, sir,

1345
01:30:02.760 --> 01:30:06.319
I crack, not even turning around. He takes hold of

1346
01:30:06.319 --> 01:30:09.600
my shoulder and turns me around. Look, I know you're

1347
01:30:09.640 --> 01:30:12.600
new here, but we don't need you starting trouble already.

1348
01:30:13.399 --> 01:30:18.119
I smile. No trouble, no trouble at all. Like you said,

1349
01:30:18.399 --> 01:30:20.920
I'm new here, just want to get familiar with my

1350
01:30:20.960 --> 01:30:25.720
new school. He glares at me. I heard what you

1351
01:30:25.800 --> 01:30:30.239
said to those girls. Yeah, and you're gonna take me

1352
01:30:30.319 --> 01:30:32.479
to the office and wash my mouth out with soap.

1353
01:30:33.279 --> 01:30:35.520
Then I glare back and tell him where only he

1354
01:30:35.600 --> 01:30:38.279
and I and he can hear me. I would love

1355
01:30:38.920 --> 01:30:43.479
to see you try. He's irritated with me, but he

1356
01:30:43.520 --> 01:30:46.840
knows he can't really do anything. Then I show him

1357
01:30:46.880 --> 01:30:50.720
my schedule. Room two thirty seven is first period. Far

1358
01:30:50.760 --> 01:30:53.199
as I'm concerned, we're allowed to walk the house freely

1359
01:30:53.239 --> 01:30:55.920
to get to our classes. Maybe you should say something

1360
01:30:55.920 --> 01:30:59.359
to the cheerleaders, unless that is, of course there in

1361
01:30:59.479 --> 01:31:03.520
charge here. When he doesn't answer me, I flash my

1362
01:31:03.680 --> 01:31:07.479
sexy smile again. Way I see it, the students run

1363
01:31:07.479 --> 01:31:10.880
this school. You're just here collecting a paycheck. If you

1364
01:31:11.000 --> 01:31:14.439
really do run things here, then fucking grow a pair.

1365
01:31:15.479 --> 01:31:18.159
As I turn to leave, he grabs my arm again.

1366
01:31:18.880 --> 01:31:23.439
Don't you test me. I'm still smiling my sexy smile.

1367
01:31:24.199 --> 01:31:27.399
That's more like it. I take my arm back now,

1368
01:31:27.520 --> 01:31:30.079
fuck off and help make this school a better place.

1369
01:31:31.079 --> 01:31:33.479
Iiny and I turn away from the principal and resume

1370
01:31:33.520 --> 01:31:37.279
heading to Room two thirty seven. The cheerleaders just glare

1371
01:31:37.319 --> 01:31:39.840
at us as we walk right past them. I even

1372
01:31:39.880 --> 01:31:46.399
make sure to flip the twin bees off. Throughout the day,

1373
01:31:46.439 --> 01:31:49.479
I end up having classes with both Iiny and members

1374
01:31:49.520 --> 01:31:52.319
of the cheerleading squad. I can easily keep an eye

1375
01:31:52.399 --> 01:31:56.159
on said people. The downside is that several horny boys

1376
01:31:56.199 --> 01:31:58.720
are keeping their eyes on me. I hadn't planned on

1377
01:31:58.800 --> 01:32:03.199
being labeled the schoolgirl. But what could I do? I

1378
01:32:03.239 --> 01:32:06.079
couldn't just let Jaren Hatley have her way with Principal

1379
01:32:06.119 --> 01:32:09.640
Van dest Oh, well, I don't have to be the

1380
01:32:09.720 --> 01:32:12.840
least bit afraid of the boys. I catch an occasional

1381
01:32:12.840 --> 01:32:16.279
glare from whatever cheerleaders are in my classes, but I

1382
01:32:16.439 --> 01:32:20.279
just give them right back. Thanks to my ultra sensitive hearing,

1383
01:32:20.439 --> 01:32:24.560
another master vampire quality, I can easily hear the cheerleaders talking.

1384
01:32:25.279 --> 01:32:28.520
Tonight is a basketball game in the gym. After the game,

1385
01:32:28.560 --> 01:32:34.640
they're meeting the boys for their ritual. They don't say where. Yeah,

1386
01:32:34.800 --> 01:32:37.560
you bitches do that. You go hunt for your victims,

1387
01:32:37.800 --> 01:32:42.399
and I'll hunt all of you that night. Ainie and

1388
01:32:42.439 --> 01:32:45.760
I are just outside the gym. Sure enough, the cheerleaders

1389
01:32:45.760 --> 01:32:48.680
are inside and the game is going on. What are

1390
01:32:48.680 --> 01:32:52.960
you going to do? Bells Aine asks me. Oh, I

1391
01:32:53.000 --> 01:32:55.199
think I'll head on in and watch the game. I

1392
01:32:55.319 --> 01:32:58.960
tell her I can tell Eine's a little scared. You

1393
01:32:59.000 --> 01:33:01.960
can go home if you want. I can handle those bitches.

1394
01:33:02.680 --> 01:33:06.479
Irony shakes her head quickly. No, I got you into this.

1395
01:33:06.920 --> 01:33:10.119
I'm gonna see it through. I turned my attention back

1396
01:33:10.159 --> 01:33:13.920
to the gym. Me too. Then I can move on

1397
01:33:15.000 --> 01:33:19.760
now Iiny's gone from scared to upset. No, we can

1398
01:33:19.800 --> 01:33:24.359
talk about this later, I say no. Irony grabs my

1399
01:33:24.399 --> 01:33:27.199
wrist and pulls me into the empty library. Then she

1400
01:33:27.279 --> 01:33:29.880
points right at me. You are not going to just

1401
01:33:30.000 --> 01:33:33.199
up and leave Martin like that. I fold my arms

1402
01:33:33.199 --> 01:33:36.760
in front of me. I asked you this before, I'll

1403
01:33:36.800 --> 01:33:40.039
ask you again. Am I just supposed to wear Martin's

1404
01:33:40.079 --> 01:33:44.000
college ring? Look? I only stayed because you told me

1405
01:33:44.039 --> 01:33:48.359
there were vampires on the cheerleading squad. Okay, I confirmed

1406
01:33:48.359 --> 01:33:51.439
their vampires, and I'll deal with them. Once I do,

1407
01:33:51.920 --> 01:33:55.079
then that's it. I'll give your uniforms back and get

1408
01:33:55.119 --> 01:34:01.279
my shit and finally leave Strickfield. Einstein's really pissed now.

1409
01:34:01.560 --> 01:34:04.960
She shakes her head. I said, no, you are not

1410
01:34:05.159 --> 01:34:08.319
walking out on Martin like that. He's really into you.

1411
01:34:08.880 --> 01:34:11.520
She points right at me, and not just because you're

1412
01:34:11.560 --> 01:34:16.079
fucking him. I narrow my eyes on her. What are

1413
01:34:16.119 --> 01:34:20.119
you saying that Martin's in love with me? I don't

1414
01:34:20.119 --> 01:34:22.840
buy that. We've only known each other for about a week.

1415
01:34:23.319 --> 01:34:28.359
We're just sleeping together. Iiny, that's it, and you, what

1416
01:34:28.439 --> 01:34:31.359
are we supposed to be besties? Hang out at them

1417
01:34:31.399 --> 01:34:34.239
all together and do each other's nails. I'm over a

1418
01:34:34.359 --> 01:34:39.399
hundred fucking years old. I hunt supernatural vermin. I'm a

1419
01:34:39.439 --> 01:34:43.640
fucking tabon. I'm a master vampire. A normal life will

1420
01:34:43.680 --> 01:34:46.800
never be in my future. Why can't you understand that?

1421
01:34:47.600 --> 01:34:51.720
Stop acting all high and mighty bells, Iiny snaps and

1422
01:34:51.800 --> 01:34:55.800
stop running away all the time. Who the fuck is

1423
01:34:55.880 --> 01:34:59.800
running away? I demand. I don't have any family left

1424
01:35:00.119 --> 01:35:03.119
run away from. I'm the last in my family tree.

1425
01:35:03.199 --> 01:35:05.079
I'm alone in this world, and that's the way it

1426
01:35:05.119 --> 01:35:08.880
has to be. I unfold my arms and raise my finger.

1427
01:35:09.680 --> 01:35:12.039
Has it ever occurred to you that my being in

1428
01:35:12.079 --> 01:35:15.600
your house is potentially putting you and Martin in terrible danger?

1429
01:35:16.119 --> 01:35:17.880
All an enemy would have to do is know that

1430
01:35:17.920 --> 01:35:20.159
I'm staying with you both, and they'll come at me

1431
01:35:20.880 --> 01:35:23.680
through the two of you. I point to the gym

1432
01:35:24.600 --> 01:35:27.920
case in point those bitches know you're with me. What's

1433
01:35:27.960 --> 01:35:31.159
to keep them from attacking your house? Iiny, and I

1434
01:35:31.199 --> 01:35:34.840
continue to argue. Some of Inini's shit gets to be repetitive.

1435
01:35:35.479 --> 01:35:37.920
I've finally had enough and walk out of the library.

1436
01:35:38.560 --> 01:35:42.560
Iinny's right behind me. We're not done here, Bells, you're

1437
01:35:42.680 --> 01:35:46.880
risking bodily harm, Einstein, I tell her, when she grabs

1438
01:35:46.880 --> 01:35:49.840
my wrist again, you are not just going to up

1439
01:35:49.880 --> 01:35:53.840
and leave Martin like that, Iiny hisses. I don't turn

1440
01:35:53.920 --> 01:35:57.439
to her. I really don't have time for this shit

1441
01:35:57.560 --> 01:35:59.760
right now. We'll talk about it when we're done with

1442
01:35:59.800 --> 01:36:04.000
what I'm here for I look inside the gym. Fuck,

1443
01:36:04.640 --> 01:36:07.920
the game's over. The cheerleaders are gone. I turned to

1444
01:36:07.960 --> 01:36:10.560
AINI I could have been keeping an eye on those bitches,

1445
01:36:10.600 --> 01:36:13.920
but no, you had to get all fucking emotional on me.

1446
01:36:14.520 --> 01:36:16.800
I turned to her, Why don't you just go home.

1447
01:36:16.960 --> 01:36:19.079
I'm gonna have to track them down now before they

1448
01:36:19.159 --> 01:36:22.600
hurt innocence. You're just slowing me down here. I march

1449
01:36:22.720 --> 01:36:26.920
right into the gym to start tracking the vampire bitches. Unfortunately,

1450
01:36:26.960 --> 01:36:30.960
I can hear Aine crying behind me. I can't worry

1451
01:36:30.960 --> 01:36:35.199
about that right now. But then I suddenly stop dead

1452
01:36:35.239 --> 01:36:40.520
in my tracks. God damn it. Thornton Jillian never had

1453
01:36:40.560 --> 01:36:43.920
any fucking feelings when he was a master vampire. You'd

1454
01:36:43.960 --> 01:36:46.159
think that when his blood mixed with mine, I'd have

1455
01:36:46.239 --> 01:36:50.680
no feelings either. True, I'm a master vampire, but I'm

1456
01:36:50.680 --> 01:36:54.159
my own breed. I still have my humanity, which means

1457
01:36:55.199 --> 01:36:59.560
I still have feelings. And now I feel like a

1458
01:36:59.600 --> 01:37:04.159
complete piece of shit for hurting Iiny's feelings. I turn

1459
01:37:04.199 --> 01:37:08.560
around and walk back to her. Okay, come on, she

1460
01:37:08.680 --> 01:37:13.479
doesn't move. I have to make this right. Okay, I

1461
01:37:13.520 --> 01:37:16.359
admit it. I'm a fucking hardcore cunt. You should know

1462
01:37:16.399 --> 01:37:18.720
by now that I don't have a filter. I say

1463
01:37:18.760 --> 01:37:21.399
what I feel. I'm just telling you the honest truth here.

1464
01:37:22.279 --> 01:37:27.119
This is the hardest thing for me to say. I'm sorry, Okay,

1465
01:37:28.039 --> 01:37:29.800
I know I was harsh, but I just wanted you

1466
01:37:29.840 --> 01:37:33.640
to understand. I can't be with anybody on a full

1467
01:37:33.680 --> 01:37:38.680
time basis. I just can't. Irony gets her shit together.

1468
01:37:39.560 --> 01:37:42.319
Martin's been taking care of me ever since our parents died.

1469
01:37:42.800 --> 01:37:45.199
He's been working at Mire and Automotive during the week

1470
01:37:45.359 --> 01:37:47.880
and Friday nights and weekends at Denoyer's grill just to

1471
01:37:47.960 --> 01:37:50.000
keep a roof over our heads and the bills paid,

1472
01:37:50.760 --> 01:37:54.800
all while taking classes at Strickfield. You he's all I have.

1473
01:37:56.239 --> 01:37:59.319
I just want the best for him. I know he's

1474
01:37:59.359 --> 01:38:02.560
really into you. My brother's been with other girls, but

1475
01:38:03.359 --> 01:38:05.960
he's never looked at them the way he looks at you. Bells,

1476
01:38:07.000 --> 01:38:11.159
I'm begging you, please don't hurt him. I put a

1477
01:38:11.199 --> 01:38:15.079
hand on Iiny's shoulder. Martin and I will talk about

1478
01:38:15.079 --> 01:38:18.520
things and go from there, but I make no promises.

1479
01:38:19.239 --> 01:38:24.880
She nods, Okay, Okay, now, come on, let's go find

1480
01:38:24.920 --> 01:38:28.880
those cheerleaders. We turn and head to the girl's locker room.

1481
01:38:29.159 --> 01:38:32.199
As I suspected they're not in the showers. I've been

1482
01:38:32.239 --> 01:38:35.119
around them long enough to get their sense. When we

1483
01:38:35.199 --> 01:38:38.880
go outside, I see their footprints in the snow until

1484
01:38:39.159 --> 01:38:43.479
they stop dead. They flew away, Irony, I tell her

1485
01:38:44.199 --> 01:38:46.880
they turned into bats and flew off. I can't go

1486
01:38:47.000 --> 01:38:50.359
after them since I can't change form. You're a vampire.

1487
01:38:50.720 --> 01:38:54.640
You can't change form. Iroinny shrieks. If I can, I've

1488
01:38:54.920 --> 01:38:57.439
never figured out how to do it. I'll have to

1489
01:38:57.520 --> 01:39:00.439
leap in order to go after them. If you're coming,

1490
01:39:00.479 --> 01:39:03.840
then you're gonna have to hang on tight. I grab

1491
01:39:03.880 --> 01:39:06.920
ainy and leap high into the night sky. I still

1492
01:39:06.920 --> 01:39:09.880
have their scents in the air. I manage to go

1493
01:39:09.960 --> 01:39:12.560
a full three miles before I have to land and

1494
01:39:12.680 --> 01:39:16.119
take another leap. Glad iine remember to wear her jacket.

1495
01:39:16.760 --> 01:39:19.640
The scent is getting stronger as I land near a forest.

1496
01:39:20.439 --> 01:39:23.600
Then I look and see some cars. I recognize a

1497
01:39:23.640 --> 01:39:26.000
few of them and know they belong to some of

1498
01:39:26.000 --> 01:39:31.640
the jocks. Stupid, stupid boys. They probably met up with

1499
01:39:31.640 --> 01:39:35.319
the cheerleaders thinking they're gonna get laid. Yeah, they'll fucking

1500
01:39:35.359 --> 01:39:39.199
get laid, all right. It's gonna get dangerous inside these woods. Iiny,

1501
01:39:39.640 --> 01:39:42.680
I whisper, you need to stick close to me. When

1502
01:39:42.720 --> 01:39:46.520
I tell you, you run and hide. Got it, bells,

1503
01:39:47.000 --> 01:39:50.239
she whispers back. I take Inine's hand and lead her

1504
01:39:50.279 --> 01:39:53.520
into the woods. The bitches aren't that far away now.

1505
01:39:53.800 --> 01:39:57.560
Their scent is very strong. Thanks to my vampire vision,

1506
01:39:57.720 --> 01:39:59.640
I can easily see in the dark as if it's

1507
01:39:59.640 --> 01:40:02.319
still the light of day. We walk a little bit

1508
01:40:02.760 --> 01:40:05.960
until we move behind a big redwood. There are four

1509
01:40:05.960 --> 01:40:09.359
guys there with the cheerleaders. They're all around a campfire.

1510
01:40:09.880 --> 01:40:12.119
It looks as if two of them are flat on

1511
01:40:12.159 --> 01:40:15.199
their backs while the other two are in a trance.

1512
01:40:16.079 --> 01:40:18.199
I know I could have saved them if i'd acted sooner,

1513
01:40:18.239 --> 01:40:22.039
But I have feelings. I guess it's no wonder why

1514
01:40:22.079 --> 01:40:24.760
other vampires I've taken down tell me that having feelings

1515
01:40:24.840 --> 01:40:29.319
is my biggest weakness. Fuck them. I lean over to

1516
01:40:29.359 --> 01:40:33.359
Iinny and whisper in her ear. Stay here. I see

1517
01:40:33.399 --> 01:40:35.800
her nod before I let go of her hand. I

1518
01:40:35.880 --> 01:40:38.079
take off my shoes and hand them to her. Then

1519
01:40:38.119 --> 01:40:40.199
I move and leap over to the other side of

1520
01:40:40.199 --> 01:40:44.319
the fire. Everybody hears me land when I reveal myself.

1521
01:40:44.399 --> 01:40:48.199
Everybody that can look does the twin mir and bees

1522
01:40:48.239 --> 01:40:52.319
point right at me. You shouldn't have come here, Ali hisses,

1523
01:40:53.079 --> 01:40:57.800
six of us to one of you. Alyssa notes, you

1524
01:40:57.880 --> 01:41:02.920
really came out here, One of the other cheerleaders asks,

1525
01:41:02.960 --> 01:41:08.079
in surprise. I put my hand to my chin. HM,

1526
01:41:08.279 --> 01:41:11.760
six of you to one of me. I lower my

1527
01:41:11.880 --> 01:41:16.520
hand and look at them. Yeah, you're right, those are

1528
01:41:16.600 --> 01:41:22.640
definitely bad odds yours. Then I vamp out, changing my

1529
01:41:22.720 --> 01:41:28.840
face and readying my claws. Then the bitches scream what

1530
01:41:28.920 --> 01:41:33.039
the fuck? The bitches are actually scared of me? I

1531
01:41:33.079 --> 01:41:36.279
guess so, because they all turn tail and run. The

1532
01:41:36.359 --> 01:41:40.039
two guys that are still tranced just stand there. I

1533
01:41:40.119 --> 01:41:43.479
check on the two guys that are down. Ainie approaches me.

1534
01:41:44.079 --> 01:41:46.239
I'm ready to tell her she should have stayed put,

1535
01:41:46.760 --> 01:41:51.600
but I know she's concerned. Are they dead bells? I

1536
01:41:51.640 --> 01:41:56.640
feel for pulses no, thankfully, and then I finally understand.

1537
01:41:57.720 --> 01:41:59.920
I know why those bitches are wearing the old bloodst

1538
01:42:00.880 --> 01:42:05.800
AINI what made you think they were vampires? I saw

1539
01:42:05.840 --> 01:42:09.640
them smile and show fangs like yours, she tells me.

1540
01:42:10.399 --> 01:42:15.279
Alissa also showed me her claws, but they have to

1541
01:42:15.319 --> 01:42:20.279
be vampires. They turned into bats, right, yeah, they did,

1542
01:42:20.399 --> 01:42:23.319
but they freaked out when they saw me. Iine, they

1543
01:42:23.439 --> 01:42:27.199
can't possibly know that I'm a master vampire. You mentioned

1544
01:42:27.239 --> 01:42:32.600
old bloodstone bells right, and here's what I determined. If

1545
01:42:32.640 --> 01:42:36.960
they were true vampires, they could use old bloodstone to

1546
01:42:36.960 --> 01:42:40.479
be able to walk in the daylight. However, they would

1547
01:42:40.520 --> 01:42:43.279
have to keep their stones charged by drinking twice as

1548
01:42:43.319 --> 01:42:48.159
much innocent blood, and by innocent I mean virgin blood.

1549
01:42:49.000 --> 01:42:52.279
I've been listening around school. I haven't heard a single

1550
01:42:52.359 --> 01:42:56.600
story about any bodies being drained of blood, or of

1551
01:42:56.840 --> 01:43:01.840
that many people even disappearing. So we get to the

1552
01:43:01.880 --> 01:43:07.159
other possibility. Those bitches are practicing witchcraft and are using

1553
01:43:07.159 --> 01:43:12.359
the Old bloodstone to turn themselves into vampires. Though they

1554
01:43:12.399 --> 01:43:16.640
can walk by daylight, which means their transformations aren't complete,

1555
01:43:17.079 --> 01:43:19.840
they have to charge their stones with soul energy in

1556
01:43:19.960 --> 01:43:24.439
order to maintain their powers and continue their transformations. What

1557
01:43:24.520 --> 01:43:28.880
they don't realize is once their transformations are complete, they

1558
01:43:28.880 --> 01:43:31.439
would need virgin blood to charge their stones to be

1559
01:43:31.520 --> 01:43:34.840
able to walk around during the daylight. I think you

1560
01:43:34.880 --> 01:43:39.039
and I both know that pure virgin blood is very

1561
01:43:39.079 --> 01:43:42.520
hard to come by in this day and age. I

1562
01:43:42.600 --> 01:43:45.279
point to the guys you keep an eye on them.

1563
01:43:45.720 --> 01:43:49.359
I'm going after those fucking bitches. They didn't turn into

1564
01:43:49.359 --> 01:43:52.560
bats this time. I can easily find the six girls

1565
01:43:52.960 --> 01:43:56.960
thanks to both their sense and their footprints. Seriously, I've

1566
01:43:57.000 --> 01:43:59.720
heard over the years that cheerleaders can be such fucking airheads,

1567
01:43:59.720 --> 01:44:03.720
but this is too much. I easily find two of

1568
01:44:03.760 --> 01:44:06.960
them together. They're both holding each other. Their faces are

1569
01:44:06.960 --> 01:44:10.760
half vamped. Suddenly they scream and try to come at me.

1570
01:44:11.880 --> 01:44:15.039
Classic rookie mistake. I snatch the both of them up

1571
01:44:15.079 --> 01:44:17.640
and toss them over my shoulders. They both hit the

1572
01:44:17.680 --> 01:44:21.039
snowy ground and moan. I'm on both of them Before

1573
01:44:21.079 --> 01:44:23.880
they realize it. They scream as I reach my claws

1574
01:44:23.920 --> 01:44:27.880
out for them and relieve them of their old bloodstone

1575
01:44:27.920 --> 01:44:31.840
jewelry to make them human again. I hold one girl

1576
01:44:31.880 --> 01:44:34.039
to me as I glam the other to get information.

1577
01:44:34.880 --> 01:44:36.880
When I get what I want, I glam the other.

1578
01:44:37.800 --> 01:44:40.680
Unlike normal vampires, who can only glam as a means

1579
01:44:40.680 --> 01:44:43.520
of hypnosis, I can both bend people to my will

1580
01:44:44.079 --> 01:44:48.039
and actually look into their memories, whether they remember or not.

1581
01:44:49.239 --> 01:44:52.279
I come to find that these bitches have indeed killed

1582
01:44:52.279 --> 01:44:56.439
people by taking their souls to charge their old bloodstone jewelry.

1583
01:44:56.560 --> 01:45:00.600
I could easily kill these two, but I'm not a butcher. No,

1584
01:45:01.399 --> 01:45:04.359
I have a much more suitable punishment for them. I

1585
01:45:04.560 --> 01:45:09.239
peer so deeply into their psychees and corrupt them so

1586
01:45:09.279 --> 01:45:13.239
that they ultimately end up going insane. I let the

1587
01:45:13.279 --> 01:45:16.439
girls go and pursue the others to more scream. As

1588
01:45:16.439 --> 01:45:18.439
they come out of their hiding places and attack me,

1589
01:45:18.720 --> 01:45:22.760
I easily swap them away like flies. They truly have

1590
01:45:22.920 --> 01:45:26.279
no idea of how fast a full vampire can move,

1591
01:45:26.640 --> 01:45:30.520
even more so for a master. I'm on both of

1592
01:45:30.560 --> 01:45:33.520
them before they can even get up. So tell me,

1593
01:45:34.199 --> 01:45:36.600
was this thing with using old bloodstone to turn yourselves

1594
01:45:36.640 --> 01:45:41.479
into vampires your idea? I ask, knowing full well that

1595
01:45:41.600 --> 01:45:45.920
it's not. We just wanted to live forever. One of

1596
01:45:45.960 --> 01:45:50.119
them says, we just wanted to be important. The other says,

1597
01:45:51.039 --> 01:45:53.239
you don't know what it's like to be invisible to people.

1598
01:45:54.920 --> 01:45:57.520
I'm not sure whether they can see me smile or not,

1599
01:45:57.800 --> 01:46:02.359
but I find what they say fun me. Actually, yes,

1600
01:46:02.600 --> 01:46:05.600
I do know what it means to be invisible to people.

1601
01:46:06.079 --> 01:46:08.640
The only difference between you two and me is I

1602
01:46:08.800 --> 01:46:12.840
choose to be invisible, but you two such stupid girls.

1603
01:46:13.039 --> 01:46:17.680
You took lives for selfish reasons. Well, now you'll have

1604
01:46:17.760 --> 01:46:21.039
all the attention you two could ever want. I'll see

1605
01:46:21.039 --> 01:46:25.239
to that personally. I take their old bloodstone and also

1606
01:46:25.359 --> 01:46:29.119
make them insane. That just leaves the little twin mir

1607
01:46:29.199 --> 01:46:32.600
and bees. Like the others, they made the mistake of

1608
01:46:32.680 --> 01:46:36.720
screaming before attacking me. These two are fully vamped out

1609
01:46:36.880 --> 01:46:39.520
and want to give me a fight. Looks like these

1610
01:46:39.560 --> 01:46:42.520
twin girls are the strongest out of what was their squad.

1611
01:46:43.119 --> 01:46:47.359
They've probably siphoned more energy compared to the others. Well,

1612
01:46:48.039 --> 01:46:51.359
they are mirans. All they care about is money and power.

1613
01:46:51.680 --> 01:46:55.600
But being a mirror means so very little to a tabon.

1614
01:46:56.840 --> 01:46:59.920
While Alissa and Ali are close enough to being full vamp,

1615
01:47:00.600 --> 01:47:04.159
they're finding out that there are bigger predators out there

1616
01:47:04.199 --> 01:47:07.119
than them. They try to fight me with just basic

1617
01:47:07.199 --> 01:47:11.239
street fighting. I'm a master of many different martial arts.

1618
01:47:11.600 --> 01:47:13.760
To finish them off, I thrust my foot into one

1619
01:47:13.840 --> 01:47:17.079
twin's gut so hard I can hear her spine crackle

1620
01:47:17.159 --> 01:47:21.399
hard in many places. Then she falls onto her back.

1621
01:47:22.439 --> 01:47:24.960
As for the other twin, I quickly bring my other

1622
01:47:25.000 --> 01:47:27.800
foot up over my shoulder and connect with her neck

1623
01:47:28.479 --> 01:47:32.159
the slight crack tells me that I've damaged her spine. Also,

1624
01:47:32.760 --> 01:47:36.920
she falls Immediately after relieving the twins of their stones,

1625
01:47:37.119 --> 01:47:41.399
they become fully human once more, Only now the two

1626
01:47:41.439 --> 01:47:45.880
of them are paralyzed for life. I could drive them insane,

1627
01:47:45.920 --> 01:47:50.079
but I feel like I've done enough now I won't

1628
01:47:50.119 --> 01:47:53.159
let them die out here. I bring the cheerleaders back

1629
01:47:53.199 --> 01:47:56.159
to the campfire where Ainie is. I know she has

1630
01:47:56.199 --> 01:47:58.199
a smartphone, so I tell her to call nine one

1631
01:47:58.239 --> 01:48:02.000
one and ask for some ambulance. I still feel soul

1632
01:48:02.159 --> 01:48:04.960
energy inside these stones, so I recite the spell to

1633
01:48:05.039 --> 01:48:08.319
release the energy and send it back to the rightful owners.

1634
01:48:08.720 --> 01:48:10.840
The two guys that were flat on their backs begin

1635
01:48:10.960 --> 01:48:14.239
to move again. I make sure they're okay before I

1636
01:48:14.319 --> 01:48:17.479
glam them and make them forget all about me. You

1637
01:48:17.600 --> 01:48:21.000
better get out of here, bells Aini tells me. I

1638
01:48:21.039 --> 01:48:23.960
can see the flashers coming over there. I'll get this.

1639
01:48:25.119 --> 01:48:29.039
I see where Eini's pointing. Good idea. You gonna be

1640
01:48:29.079 --> 01:48:32.159
okay if I leave you here. Iinne grabs my wrist

1641
01:48:32.159 --> 01:48:37.600
one more time. Please don't leave Strickfield. Don't leave Martin.

1642
01:48:38.439 --> 01:48:40.399
I'll be at the house when you get home. Iine.

1643
01:48:40.720 --> 01:48:44.760
I promise. Also, I promised you that i'd talk to Martin.

1644
01:48:46.079 --> 01:48:49.560
I'll be waiting for you. When Inini lets go, I

1645
01:48:49.680 --> 01:48:52.199
leap into the air and am long gone before the

1646
01:48:52.239 --> 01:48:55.239
police and ambulances get there. I have no doubt that

1647
01:48:55.319 --> 01:48:59.600
Einstein will take care of everything. Well. I won't go

1648
01:48:59.640 --> 01:49:03.640
into every detail about all the sappy shit. It's two

1649
01:49:03.720 --> 01:49:06.439
weeks later and it's Friday at Strickfield High School. I

1650
01:49:06.479 --> 01:49:09.920
look at my nails that Iinie polished for me. God

1651
01:49:10.039 --> 01:49:13.720
damn you, Heinie. As you can tell, I did keep

1652
01:49:13.720 --> 01:49:16.840
my word to Einie and remained at the house. Martin

1653
01:49:16.960 --> 01:49:20.079
was already home when I got there. He looked tired

1654
01:49:20.159 --> 01:49:24.079
from his classes. Still he had enough energy to come

1655
01:49:24.119 --> 01:49:27.079
and take me in his arms. As much as I

1656
01:49:27.119 --> 01:49:30.119
wanted to tell Martin that we were done and that

1657
01:49:30.199 --> 01:49:34.960
I wanted to leave Strickfield, I realized I just couldn't

1658
01:49:35.000 --> 01:49:39.600
do that to him, not like that again. Part of

1659
01:49:39.640 --> 01:49:42.119
me wished that I'd lost my emotions when I became

1660
01:49:42.159 --> 01:49:48.680
a master vampire. But I love and need to feel,

1661
01:49:48.800 --> 01:49:52.920
which is something very few vamps can do. Martin and

1662
01:49:52.960 --> 01:49:55.880
I made love for the first time that night. Normally

1663
01:49:55.920 --> 01:49:59.319
we just fuck. As for Iini, I think she pretty

1664
01:49:59.399 --> 01:50:03.119
much knew that I I was sticking around. The Next morning,

1665
01:50:03.479 --> 01:50:06.239
still two weeks ago, Martin had to go to work

1666
01:50:06.279 --> 01:50:09.920
and then classes. He would be gone all day. It

1667
01:50:10.000 --> 01:50:12.439
was just Irony and me and we went to school.

1668
01:50:13.439 --> 01:50:16.000
Wouldn't you know it? Both of us were called into

1669
01:50:16.039 --> 01:50:19.079
the principal's office. Turned out that the talk of the

1670
01:50:19.119 --> 01:50:22.800
school was that the cheerleading squad was permanently gone. It

1671
01:50:22.840 --> 01:50:25.479
was in the Strickfield newspaper that something had happened to

1672
01:50:25.520 --> 01:50:27.800
them in the woods near the south end of the village.

1673
01:50:27.840 --> 01:50:31.680
Limits four of them were committed to a facility called Glenview,

1674
01:50:32.039 --> 01:50:36.159
which was near North Ridgeway. As for the twins, they

1675
01:50:36.279 --> 01:50:39.359
ended up in a special hospital over in Shore City,

1676
01:50:39.760 --> 01:50:41.880
where they would be cared for for the rest of

1677
01:50:41.920 --> 01:50:45.399
their lives. It didn't surprise me that their parents didn't

1678
01:50:45.439 --> 01:50:50.560
want to care for them themselves. Fucking rich misers. Anyway,

1679
01:50:51.159 --> 01:50:54.600
getting back to Principal van dest he had both Iiny

1680
01:50:54.640 --> 01:50:57.880
and Me in front of him. He pointed right at us.

1681
01:50:58.319 --> 01:51:00.520
I don't know what happened with the cheerleader, but I

1682
01:51:00.560 --> 01:51:03.720
know I know that you two had something to do

1683
01:51:03.800 --> 01:51:08.079
with it. I roll my eyes. Can you even prove

1684
01:51:08.399 --> 01:51:11.960
any of this shit? If not, go fuck yourself and

1685
01:51:12.039 --> 01:51:15.199
let us go back to class. Oh you're going back

1686
01:51:15.199 --> 01:51:17.439
to class, all right. He stood up and put his

1687
01:51:17.479 --> 01:51:21.399
palms on the desk. He had this weird smirk on

1688
01:51:21.439 --> 01:51:23.880
his face. I want you to to go see Miss

1689
01:51:23.960 --> 01:51:28.079
Temple in her office. Now. I believe you know the way, Aileen,

1690
01:51:28.600 --> 01:51:31.520
you can take our new student to meet her. When

1691
01:51:31.560 --> 01:51:35.520
Aileen got up, I was a bit reluctant. I wanted

1692
01:51:35.560 --> 01:51:37.439
to see what else this shit he'll had to say.

1693
01:51:38.479 --> 01:51:40.680
When he told me to get going, I got up

1694
01:51:41.239 --> 01:51:43.479
before we left. I made sure he saw me give

1695
01:51:43.520 --> 01:51:46.199
him the finger and flick my tongue. I He took

1696
01:51:46.279 --> 01:51:48.560
us to the gym and to Miss Temple's office. There

1697
01:51:49.319 --> 01:51:51.560
turned out she taught a few of the gym classes,

1698
01:51:51.720 --> 01:51:55.039
a few of the English classes, and was also the

1699
01:51:55.119 --> 01:51:59.840
cheerleading coach. She looked really fucking happy to see us.

1700
01:52:00.640 --> 01:52:03.640
There were four other girls there too. I won't go

1701
01:52:03.720 --> 01:52:07.279
into details on them, but just seeing the six of us,

1702
01:52:07.720 --> 01:52:12.319
we had the strangest mix there. Miss Temple couldn't wait

1703
01:52:12.359 --> 01:52:14.560
to tell the six of us that we were all

1704
01:52:15.399 --> 01:52:20.359
the new fucking cheerleader squad bull shit. I quickly told

1705
01:52:20.399 --> 01:52:24.000
her and stepped back. You can fucking kiss my ass.

1706
01:52:24.840 --> 01:52:27.960
Believe it or not. Miss Temple wasn't even upset with me.

1707
01:52:28.680 --> 01:52:33.319
She just simply said language. Then she explained that Principal

1708
01:52:33.399 --> 01:52:36.439
Van Deist had personally hand picked the six of us

1709
01:52:36.840 --> 01:52:40.359
to be the new cheerleaders of Strickfield High. I still

1710
01:52:40.359 --> 01:52:43.560
told Miss Temple to go fuck yourself. Then I about

1711
01:52:43.600 --> 01:52:45.800
lost my fucking shit when I saw that Iiny and

1712
01:52:45.840 --> 01:52:49.399
the others gladly accepted their uniform and shoes. As much

1713
01:52:49.439 --> 01:52:52.880
as I protested, Iine looked so happy to have been

1714
01:52:52.920 --> 01:52:56.600
given such an opportunity. I would have also told Iine

1715
01:52:56.600 --> 01:52:59.159
to go get fucked. But we've had time to bond

1716
01:52:59.159 --> 01:53:03.199
over the last several time. So not only am I

1717
01:53:03.319 --> 01:53:06.960
possibly developing feelings for Martin, I've gotten used to having

1718
01:53:07.000 --> 01:53:11.840
Iiny around. I think I've said this before, but she

1719
01:53:11.960 --> 01:53:14.920
fucking grows on you. As soon as we were back

1720
01:53:14.960 --> 01:53:18.119
out in the hallway, I grabbed Iiny's shoulders. I am

1721
01:53:18.359 --> 01:53:23.079
so gonna fucking kill you. Now you won't, she said quickly.

1722
01:53:23.720 --> 01:53:29.720
I'm your best friend again, always so fucking direct. Getting

1723
01:53:29.760 --> 01:53:33.880
back to now, I'm wearing a fucking cheerleader uniform. It'll

1724
01:53:33.880 --> 01:53:37.840
be another game night as a full fledged cheerleader. Oh,

1725
01:53:38.079 --> 01:53:41.840
and now I'm known as both the bad schoolgirl and

1726
01:53:42.479 --> 01:53:46.119
the bad cheerleader. Aine told me she had a reason

1727
01:53:46.199 --> 01:53:48.520
for the two of us joining the squad, and it

1728
01:53:48.640 --> 01:53:50.920
wasn't for us to show off our tits and asses

1729
01:53:50.920 --> 01:53:54.399
in front of the crowds at the basketball games. Aine

1730
01:53:54.399 --> 01:53:57.079
explained that a lot of shit goes on here in Strickfield.

1731
01:53:57.560 --> 01:53:59.800
She promised me there would be more than enough work

1732
01:53:59.840 --> 01:54:03.399
to keep me here for a very long time. In

1733
01:54:03.439 --> 01:54:06.439
other words, we'd be keeping our eyes and ears open

1734
01:54:06.520 --> 01:54:10.479
for shit to investigate. Over time, I would learn other

1735
01:54:10.520 --> 01:54:15.000
interesting things about the other four cheerleaders. So I sigh

1736
01:54:15.119 --> 01:54:18.319
to myself and realize I've gotten too close to the

1737
01:54:18.359 --> 01:54:23.640
donnerlies and the great food at Denoyer's Grill. Looks like

1738
01:54:23.720 --> 01:54:29.079
I'm stuck in this fucking village indefinitely. Seriously, why couldn't

1739
01:54:29.119 --> 01:54:31.960
I have lost my feelings when Thornton Jillian's blood mixed

1740
01:54:31.960 --> 01:54:40.239
with mine over one hundred years ago. Well, my spooks,

1741
01:54:41.159 --> 01:54:47.359
we survived detention, the abandoned asylum, the worst hangover imaginable,

1742
01:54:47.479 --> 01:54:54.439
and one extremely bloody night after a basketball game tonight

1743
01:54:54.600 --> 01:54:59.920
proved that forbidden books should probably remain buried. Amateur mercenary

1744
01:55:00.159 --> 01:55:05.840
should never declare war on satanists, witches can hold one

1745
01:55:06.039 --> 01:55:10.399
hell of a grudge, and vampire cheerleaders still have to

1746
01:55:10.479 --> 01:55:16.840
worry about something higher on the supernatural food chain. For

your chest, don't wait for the plumbing to explain itself.

1755
01:55:57.640 --> 01:56:02.439
And most importantly, when the cheerleaders disappear into the woods

1756
01:56:02.479 --> 01:56:08.760
after dark, remember the game is already over. I've been

1757
01:56:08.880 --> 01:56:12.600
Enrique Cuto. Stay spooky, my friends,
