Tori as Tears
+---+ It all started when the two people I guess you could call my parents said we were moving. Whoop de flipping doo. They said it was a nice, safe neighborhood. Translation: boring and dull. I blow a bubble until it pops. Why do they insist on going everywhere boring?



Looking out the window I saw the moving trucks pulling out of the driveway. I saw our neighbors all blonde, it was all I could see considering the angle of my window, and they all looked like clones from the back. It kind of freaked me out!

“Cory, Sweetheart! Come down! We’re going to meet our new neighbors!” oh no

+---+

I was practicing my skate techniques when they walked up, most likely neighbors. Uh!

"Hello neighbors! We’re the Cyrus’s!” The mother’s cheerful voice rang. She sounds like nails on a chalkboard! “I’m Iris! My husband John and my son Cory!”

My mother was taken aback obviously “A pleasure. I’m Agatha” Formal as ever. She gestured to father “my husband Tyler” and then to me “And one of my daughters Victoria” I blew a bubble at them “Tori! Don’t be fresh! Say hi!” my mother scolded making me cringe

“hi” I greeted as dully as I could

“OH! She’s adorable!” kill me now “I hope our kids will be wonderful friends!” please please kill me now. The boy stared at me; I blew a bubble until it popped “Well! We hope to see you again soon!” good riddance



She’s in my class. Why is she in my class?

“everyone this is Victoria Smith” Mr. Scott introduced her “She’s a little younger since she skipped a grade, so of course she probably feels nervous so I want you all to be extra nice to her”

Everyone muttered amongst themselves “dude!” veronica whispered to me “How young do you think she is?” “How should I know?” I answered. She didn’t look much younger though

"anything you want to say Victoria?” Mr. Scott tried to make her feel welcome, she only responded by blowing a bubble with her gum. What was with that? “Victoria! Gums against the rules! Spit it out right now!” she did so throwing it away in the wastebasket “good, now you’ll sit-“ she didn’t keep listening, she walked past several students including me and sat in a seat in the very back. Talk about a loner. “Okay then” Mr. Scott then started class writing equations on the board. I looked back at Tori, she gotten out a fresh stick of gum and popped it in her mouth. Rebel and a loner, Great.

+---+

Two weeks in this town. Two.Weeks. and it’s just as I suspected. Boring. As. Fuck. Why is this place so damned boring?! “…” looking out the window I grin remembering what night it is. The new moon will beg for tears



I munched on a candy bar as Veronica yacked away. “I mean who does that! I was this close to getting that beautiful bag! Then it was just snatched away like- Cory are you listening?!”

“Yeah.” I replied chewing

“…did you hear about those murders in the next town over?”

That got my attention “what?”

“Yeah! Rumor has it that the murders were so brutal that they think it’s an animal!”

“Not sure if I want to be hearing this while I’m eating!”I said making Veronica pouted

“Hello blonde~” uh oh. We look over to the class rebel who’s being stared down by the school own snooty tyrant princess, Cleo. “Why are you smiling?” she smirked, her lackey’s giggled

“not really any of your business” Ever cool Tori replied

“Oh really”

“yes really, ginger snap” ooh that one looked like it stung

"way to go Tori!” veronica cheered beside me

“…” Cleo stared her down while said girl ignored her blowing a bubble. Cleo seemed mad she took her own gum out of her mouth and stuck it in Tori’s hair! Now that’s low!

"That witch!” veronica growled

“Have fun with that bubble gum” Cleo and her lackey’s laughed as if it were a great joke walking out. Tori tugged at the gum in her hair when they left turning red with either anger or embarrassment I’ll never know since she ran out before anyone could ask.

+---+

Bitch! Bitch! Bitch! Bitch! “Grr!!” I cut the gum out of my hair. Eww it was the pink kind! Disgusting! I tossed the gum and bits of my hair in the trash.

"I’m home!” oh great as if my day wasn’t bad enough! SHE’S here! I stepped out of the bathroom to see father and mother fawning over her.

“Angela!” mother cooed

"welcome home honey!” father turned to putty.

“…” I stayed quiet hoping she wouldn’t talk to me

“Tori!” no such luck, she picked at my hair “Tori! You cut your bangs by yourself again!” I wouldn’t trust you to cut the hair of a dog let alone my hair. “If you’d just asked I’d-““I don’t WANT you to cut my hair!” I snapped at her

"Victoria!” Mother looked ready to nag me, time to escape

"I’m going out!” I shoved her out of my way

"Victoria Smith!” Father called once I was outside “Come back her and apologize to your sister”

“I’M NOT going to apologize to a traitor!” I took off on my skates, not wanting to hear them yak and coo at her. UH! I’m so mad and my hands itched! A smile broke on my face. Someone is going to pay tonight.



I was eating breakfast when I heard the news.

“The witch strikes again!” That’d been for a few years now. A killer who took either men or women, they were all either found stabbed to death or dismembered, I heard it was all the same person because they left a calling card. A pentagram carved into their forehead and something else that was never given.

“Another poor soul” My dad said behind me “I heard that Mr. Smith had been on the case before he moved

“Really dear?” My mother asked “What made him stop?”

"There are a lot of rumors at the station, some say that he finally just went mad because of it, and others say that it’s because of the victims.”

"What is it dear?” I listened as well, father looked around as if afraid someone would overhear

"There’s no real pattern to his or her killings, but most of them are exactly the same blonde hair, blue eyes and he started to worry that his daughters would be next”

+---+

I continued to chew my gum when they came over “Hiya Tori!” what was her name again? Veronica?

“Did you hear?!”

“Hear what?” I replied

“The witch stuck again!” What a stupid name.

“What do you mean?”

“Girl! Do you even watch the news? Even Cory knows! And he’s an idiot!”

“Hey!” Cory retorted

I interrupted “I don’t watch the new unless father is watching it” I blew a bubble only to have Veronica pop it, I gave her an annoyed look that she seemed to ignore

"apparently he cut and gut some poor sap and left his calling card as usual, those starthingy’s”

“a pentagram?” I asked

“Yeah! That’s it!” She replied

“…”

“Anyway, I was just wondering if you had any information not open to the public?” she gave me puppy dog eyes…very pathetic really

“no”

"what?”

“No”

“why not?”

“My father doesn’t let his files out of his sight and he doesn’t tell us. And if you had even one brain cell you’d know that even if I did I wouldn’t tell you two” I got up and walked out the classes ignoring the two idiots



“Okay…” Veronica said next to me “What the hell is her problem?!” she finished

“Get over it Veronica I would have told you the exact same thing. She gave me a harsh glare

"That’s it! I’ve made up my mind!”

“What?” I questioned

“We’re going to catch the witch!”

“WHAT?!”

+---+

Cory and his stupid friend caught up tome at lunch. Told me they were going to catch the witch. In their dreams. Somehow they got me involved in their little scheme, oh well at least it’ll do something about my boredom. Now how to get the case files from father?



“She’s late” Veronica mumbled. We had agreed to meet at my house since it’d probably be the last place their parents would look for them.

"What exactly do you expect?” I asked her

“What I expect, Cory is that all the detectives be on time.” Oh brother Tori came in a moment later

"Yo” she greeted us, tossing the file on the floor

“how did you-?”

“I got father drunk” She stated before Veronica could finish. Wait a minute did I hear her right?

“You got your dad drunk?” I asked

"As a skunk, I spiked his drink while he wasn’t looking” Geez

"Great job Tori! But won’t your dad notice?” Veronica eyed Tori

"he’s too drunk to notice and by the time he does, he’ll be nursing a hangover and think he just misplaced it” She blew a bubble until it popped

“just get to reading” she snapped

"all right. All right” Veronica opened the folder causing pictures to fall out. I almost puked just looking at the pictures, my eyes were transfixed to one that looked the most brutal, a blonde woman; her eyes and tongue looked like they’d been ripped out with a lot of force it seemed, scratches of what looked like three different sized knives on her face, arms and chest, a big hole in her stomach as if they’d just ripped it out of her and just let the blood flow out like a river, the pentagram also tattooed on the woman’s forehead like a signature. Tori picked up the photo before I could puke for real

“Looks like they finished them off by stabbing them to death…anywhere” Veronica said looking very green herself

“Then dissected them” Tori pointed out calmly, how she could be so calm, I have no idea.

"according to this most of the victims are female, ages 14 to 30 blonde haired blue eyed and if they aren’t the most they’re defiantly the most brutal” Veronica didn’t look like she wanted to say what was wrong out loud

"looks like they have a criminology report” Tori picked it up “not a very good one but apparently the witch is a female stu-““The witch is a girl?” veronica asked

“witch does imply female” I pointed out

“not necessarily.” Tori said to us “Witch is considered a unisex term but everyone just assumes female but there are male witches, we just call them warlocks” she said that as if it were a fact

“what about this pentagram thing?” Veronica asked handing a photo to Tori; she stared at it for a long time “….” Huh? Did I just see something in her eyes

“this pentagram is a five star with its bottom two points facing upwards…this means that…depending on the religion…but if my assumptions are correct”

“get to the point” I spat, she spat back a “Shut up” Then went back to explain “It’s known in witch lore to be the symbol of the devil”

“….” Veronica and I were stunned into silence. Okay…why did she know that?

“Uuuh, there’s something else” Veronica tried to change the subject “it says ‘new moon’"

“new moon?” I said

“I think father mentioned that. He said that she strikes every new moon”

Wait a minute “isn’t TONIGHT a new moon” I choked out

“…”

“Oh will you look at the time! I must be going!” Veronica said “I gotta go!” she was probably scared to death and I can’t really blame her, she’s 14 and lives four blocks away.

Once she left I looked back at Tori “and you know all this witch stuff why?”

“My sibling went through a phase.”

sibling? “You have a sibling?”

“Only by blood”

“what’s their name?”

“Angela” does she not want to talk about her?

“I better go as well, mother might be back”

"That would be wise”

“…” “…”

"Goodnight” She left taking the file with her…but she left some of the photos. Thanks for the nightmares Tori.

+---+

Veronica and Cory came up to me the next day. Since yesterday was the 2nd day of the new moon. So of course:

"Today's the last day! We gotta catch the witch tonight!" Veronica growled

"why?" I asked only to receive a horrified glare

"because, Tori! We don't want any more victims! Duh! And if we wait another month she could change locations!"

"Where would she even go?" Cory asked

"I don't know a warehouse?!" Veronica spat "anyway! We should start looking for warehouses and stuff in the area!" one minute she's serious about the situation then its right back to being a moron! UH!

"I know where she'd be" We jumped

"Cleo" Veronica muttered

"what do you want?" I spat

"I know where the witch is~" She said in an annoying singsong voice. Wait...say what now?

"I beg your pardon?" Veronica sounded offended "It's not nice to lie Cleo"

"oh, but I am not. I found a house covered in blood" somehow I dough that

"...well it could be a good place to start" Cory said. Cory and Veronica are you seriously this naive?

"I guess, we'll go after class" Veronica said. Asked and answered



"This is it?" I asked

"yes it is..." Cleo answered

"This doesn't seem like the kind of place a crazed killer would come by" Tori pointed out. Indeed it didn't, this place was a big white rundown mansion Victorian style it seemed, looked like it would fall apart at any moment, didn't look like even a hobo would live there.

"Cleo are you playing us?" Tori asked

"No! I'll prove it to you!" Cleo dragged us into the house. It looked absolutely ordinary for a house that looked this runned down and ready to fall on our heads "See?!" Cleo gestured grandly seriously what was she talking about? "Don’t give me those looks!" she said insulted "look around!" thinking it was a trick we of course looked around at first: nothing seems off

"What's this?" Tori tugs at the carpet: A dark red patch revealed itself, blood?

"Looks fresh, she could still be around" I don't know who said that but my brain was going into overdrive

"we should split up!" veronica said

"what?" Tori said

"EXCUSE ME?!" I choked out; Veronica dragged me away to who knows where

+---+

"..." "..." Cleo and I were completely silent. God Damn I hate this woman. Her attitude.Her voice.Her greed. HER EXISTENCE!

"What’s the matter with you?" Cleo snapped obviously angry at being near me. Feeling mutual bitch! Hate. "So-" Hate. "When did you and Veronica cook this up?" Hate.

"What do you mean?" Hate.

"That blood is fake, I know." Hate. "..." "Let me guess, Veronica felt vulnerable because the boy she likes was getting a new girl as a neighbor-" Hate. "-And naturally as her sister-" I pull out some of her red hair

"OW!" "-You wanted to help her but-" HATE. "-You didn't count on a few things-" she took a step back probably because of the look on my face "I never liked Cory" her eyes widened hearing my voice HATEHATEHATE "-and that you aren't going to get out of here" Burn in fucking hell!



"Why did you leave Cleo with Tori?" They were going to kill each other left alone I could feel it

"because!"

because? "Why?"

"Because- because- I'm sick of seeing you with that chick! Her attitude is absolutelyappalling!" she talking about Tori?

"What the hell?! You just left them back there to die!" "But-" "YOU’RE the one that wanted to catch the witch!" "I know that but-" Something interrupted our argument; it sounded big and like it was...scuttling? It was coming towards us! Only one thing came to mind: "RUN!" I grabbed Veronica's hand. I could hear it coming closer and closer to us! Where the hell was a door!

"AAH!" whatever it was hit me to the side and took Veronica into the darkness I couldn't see what it was or where it was! I hide in a door not too far away. Hoping.Praying.That it never came through that door.

+---+

Come out come out wherever you are~ I knocked on the door knowing that stupid bastard would be in there. I entered "Tori!" Cory hugged my neck and began to shake my shoulders slightly "We have to get out of here! She got Veronica and-" I hit his head making him fall to the floor "hehehe..."



“Uhh…” I groaned. What happened? Am I dead? I tried to move, my legs? I could move them but I couldn’t get up. My arms? What was that sound? Chains? My eyes snapped open. Where the hell-?! I was in a different location, the ground seemed to be made of cement, the walls were painted black, I couldn’t see any sunlight just a single light bulb above a table in the middle of the room. I tried to yell but my mouth was taped shut! “MM!MM!” I thrashed in vain; my hands were cuffed above my head.

"Yo” I looked at the only door in the room, a woman stood in the shadows “Morning” She waved what looked like a hand holding five knives “aw. Are you scared~?” she came out of the shadows “good” I could see her better now; she wore a skin tight white full body suit with black stripes on the long sleeves, brown belts adorned her neck, shoulders and waist, pockets adorned her torso fully, I didn’t notice before but she wasn’t holding knives or wearing gloves; Her knives were her fingernails! Then I got to her face, dear god. Her hair was reddish orange cut short into a bob, her eyes were deep blood red and red tears of blood dripped from her eyes “aw~ you can’t speak?” she rolled over to me. Skates? “Let me help you with that” she ripped the tap off with her claws

"Who the fuck are you?!”

“who me~?” she cupped my face in her palm, her claws dug into my skin “You stupid humans refer to me as ‘the witch’” She yanked her hand away, cutting my face and making me yelp in pain “My name is Tears” She giggled at my pain walking along the walls, he nails screeched like fingernails on a chalkboard, I grit my teeth at the awful sound “MM!” what? Was someone else in here? I looked around wildly “looking for something?” She smiled a sadistic smile that made my blood run cold “worried about your friends?” Her blood red eyes stared into my blue eyes, she giggled “well you won’t worry once you see what’s behind curtain number one~” She pulled on a rope that was right next to her, curtains that seemed to blend into the background next to me opened revealing, No!

“Veronica!” “MmH!” she was chained up like me, hand cuffs held above her head and gagged with duck tape

"And let’s not forget our final guest behind curtain number two~” She skated over to the other side of the room and pulled another rope, another black curtain opened revealing Cleo, hung by handcuffs and gagged

“C-Cleo”

“MMH!” Veronica cried

“Well~” Tears practically skipped over to the table “Now that the gangs all here~” Tears held up her ten fingernail claws showing our reflections in them “Shall we get started?” Her red eyes seemed to gleam as she picked up a throwing knife

“W-What are you going to do?!” I sounded braver than I felt, She looked at me curiously placing the knife back on the table, she tapped her chin with one of her nails

“’what?’ indeed, I could poison you, drown you, bash your head in” I gulped “But I won’t do that~ It’s not my style” Tears smiled sadistically at us, as if she had plans for us “I’m going to put you true ugliness on the outside” What? “Now where to begin~?” she smoothly skated to Veronica, who squeezed her eyes shut

“Don’t you touch her!” I thrashed

"Oh so now your protective~” She cooed as if she were talking to a baby, what the fuck?! “well too bad” she cupped Veronica’s face in her palm “Look at you” She talked down at Veronica as if she absolutely loathed her “Your face is truly ugly” liquid tears dripped from Veronica’s eyes “Your petty anger and jealousy are truly disgusting” Tears yanked her hand cutting Veronica’s skin leaving three big marks

"MMMH!” “STOP IT! LEAVE HER ALONE!”

Tears ignored me “It never once entered your mind that he wasn’t interested”

"SOMEONE HELP!”

"All that ever ran through your head was yourself, never the poor souls you hurt or anyone for that matter” Tears yanked Veronica up by her red hair "MMMMMMH!”

"We’re going to bring the ugliness of your soul out into the open”

"STOP IT YOU HORRIBLE BITCH!”

Tears sliced off Veronica’s hair making her fall to the floor “All you ever do is take, like a fucking leech” Tears smiled and skated over to Cleo “even to your sister” Sister? What is she- “oh you didn’t know?” Tears saw my face…she smiled as if she knew something I didn’t. She grabbed Cleo by her red hair “This pig and that leech are sister” Tears smirked when she saw Veronica’s defeated look “I guess the leech didn’t want you to know, since she wanted to suck you dry” I couldn’t believe it but right now I couldn’t careless!

“SOMEONE!” I screamed

"Your still doing that? You’re smart. Should have already figured out that no one can hear you” Tears smirked “Hmmm~” She hummed “There are many things about pigs, they eat, drink, roll around in their own shit and keep doing that until they’re commanded to go to their own slaughter”

Tears ripped off Cleo’s tape “DAMN YOU! YOU FUCKING BITCH! I HOPE YOU ROT IN-“ Before any of us could comprehend, Tears sliced Cleo’s nose clean off Cleo let out a pained scream, I knew right then, we were going to die

“A bratty pig always squeals the loudest” Tears giggled ripping Cleo’s hair out making her scream louder “I’ve barely done anything and already your screaming” ‘barely’? Oh god there’s more?! “hmm~” Tears licked some blood off one of her claws “Have you ever heard that the eyes are the windows to the soul?” Tears smiled down at Cleo “well let’s show the true blackness of yours” I don’t think me or Cleo could imagine that she did what she did, she stabbed Cleo in the eyes, Cle let out such a scream of agony it would rip apart anyone who heard it

"s-stop” I choked out, my body racked with tears “Wh-“Tears gaze fell on me “why are you doing this?”

"Why~? You want to know? ‘Why~?’” Tears skated over to Veronica taking off her tape

"ah! C-Cleo” Veronica sobbed for her sister Tears caught some on her claws, she licked it off

“mmm~ your tears are so sweet~”

"WHY DID YOU DO THAT TO CLEO!?” Tears grabbed Veronica’s face “You know about leeches?” She glared down at Veronica “They only suck” Tears gripped Veronica’s chin making it bleed, Then using her pointer finger, ripped off Veronica’s lower lip and chin, Veronica let out a loud scream making Tears giggle

“cleo…veronica…”I couldn’t help but sob “s-stop why are you doing this to them?” my voice was getting weaker with hopelessness

"Oh yeah~ You asked that~” She began to circle the room in a slow smooth motion

“Well~ Once upon a time there was a king and queen of a far away kingdom, one day they discovered they were to have another baby, they of course informed their spoiled rotten other princess….” She paused

"...They had another princess, ten years her sisters junior, the king and queen were delighted of course, But the other princess. Oh no~ the princess felt jealousy in her heart for the infant, and plotted on getting rid of the younger sister she so despised." She said despised with such fury it made me shiver with new fears

"...Then one day when the younger princess reached her sixth year and the older her sixteenth year it happened; The older princess took her naïve sister to the basement and told her to get into the ‘happy circle’ and the younger trusted her sister so she laid down in the middle of the circle. Her older sister began to chant and cut her finger, a tiny drop of blood fell on the circle, the young princess felt pain wash over her, She called out ‘sister! Big sister! Help me!’ but the older ignored her and walked out like a coward." Tears snarled like an animal

"The world around the princess went red then to black nothingness..." She once again paused

"...then out of the silent nothingness a shadow called out to the princess, ‘do you want to live?” the princess shrieked yes and she survived but got a little passenger, when she felt sick, she tried to tell her mother and father but they didn’t believe her, just brushed her off like yesterdays trash and her ‘dear’ sister only scowled at her. Her parents acted as if they didn’t know or love her anymore. One night when the moon vanished completely the younger sister had a dream, a demon visited her, It’d turned out that the younger princess had been stabbed and killed in that ‘happy circle’ by the one she thought she could trust, so the demon gave her an opportunity. An opportunity for revenge to get back at the bitch that took her life so easily. At first the princess refused but then the demon asked ‘what’s worse being killed by the person you love most or them letting you live and making it as if you were never born?’ confused the princess asked what he meant..." Tears's hands curled into fists

"...that ‘happy circle’ had not only killed her but took away all the love and affection of the people around her. They’d let her live but that’s it. The princess didn’t believe it, so he gave her three weeks to think about it, the night when her powers were at their peak. The princess agreed, after about two weeks she began to see the difference of what happened before the incident and after. Her parents didn’t hug her, kiss her or tell her stories anymore, they just tolerated her and then after she accidently broke a vase, her father struck her across the face. That was the final straw, the princesses soul died and she let the demon do what it wanted, but the demon couldn’t do much without more filthy souls, the princess said ‘do whatever you want just make them pay!’..."Tears began to smile her sadistic smile as if recalling a fond memory

"...the demon killed one of the subjects of the king and queen on the new moon, of course the princess felt regret and remorse, then she remember the witch that destroyed her. And the rest as they say is history” Tears gestured grandly in front of them

"t-the demon was you.” I choked out

"Guilty as charged” Tears giggled delighted she skated over to Cleo “I was just like you once” Her claw dug into Cleo’s shoulder making her scream in pain

“STOP IT!”

“I thought I could trust her!” Tears twisted her claw making Cleo scream louder than before “You both act like animals so your going to die like them” She yanked her claws out

"Ah….ah” Cleo sobbed

“You act like a pig, so die like one” Tears buried her claws into Cleo’s belly, Cleo let out a scream of gut wrenching agony, it made me shiver and recoil. Tears twisted her hand and ripped it out, a huge chunk of Cleo rested in her hand. Cleo’s eyeless holes fell on Veronica, unmoving, dead.

“s-shleo” Veronica choked out, Tears turned to us, smiling her sadistic smile. She tossed Cleo’s stomach to the floor and skated right in front of Veronica

"and a leech will die like a leech” Tears claws went into Veronica’s abdomen just below the ribs and into the wall behind her, then she sliced down, blood and bits of Veronica splattered all over them Just before she got to Veronica’s hips she ripped her claws out of her. Tears was now cover practically from head to toe, her white body suit stained red, my side was covered in Veronica’s blood. Tears’s gaze fell on me “and as for you. I have a Very special something for you” She got to her knees until she was level with me, she did something I didn’t expect, she kissed me. WHAT THE FUCKING HELLS OF FUCKING FUCK!!!!? Her teeth gripped my tongue, and then I felt intense pain. She cut my tongue off! My tongue was between her teeth! She spit it out then smiled down at me.

+---+

I smiled down at Cory who was bleeding from his mouth, this expression of fear and pain sent delightful shivers down my spine. “well meet again tomorrow” I hit him on the head knocking him out



When I had woken up, I was in the hospital. My mom had hugged me and my dad looked completely relived. I heard that someone had called in an anonymous tip and the police had found me out in the middle of the street at four o’clock in the morning. I couldn’t tell if I was happy or not about being saved, Veronica and Cleo were still dead and I probably wouldn’t say anything for the rest of my life, and worst of all, Tears was still out there…I wish this had never happened!

“Are you sure about this description Cory?” I nodded confidently, I’d just written a description of Tears ‘the witch’ and turned it into my dad.

“…” Dad read it giving me a strange look

"we’ll do everything we can Cory, you focus on recovering” Dad told me

“My brave little baby!” Mom kissed my forehead making me blush

“e-excuse me some friends of yours are visiting, the ‘Smiths’” A nurse informed

“oh yes! Send them in” mom said as the nurse ran away, Mr and Mrs Smith came in with an older blonde woman carrying ‘get well soon’ flowers, I never really like flowers before but right now I didn’t really care.

“Mr and Mrs Cyrus, we need to talk” Mr.Smith said

"o-okay” Dad said as the older smiths led them out. The woman looked at me placing the flowers next to me

“hi…Your…Cory?” I nodded who was this woman? “I’m Angela, the oldest Smith daughter, I wish we had meet in better circumstances…” I nodded, didn’t Tori mention her? Where was she anyway? Did she get away? “Tori! Come in and see your friend!”

“not while your in there.” Tori’s cool voice rang

“but Tori-“ “I want to speak to Cory alone, so beat it traitor”

Angela frowned “…all right” As Angela left Tori came in staring at me, from the looks of it she didn’t have a scratch on her, looks like she’d managed to get away before Tears could get her. I wonder why she’s not saying anything? I started to hear Mr.Smiths’s voice come from down the hall

"It’s not the witches MO”

"But! Cory wouldn’t just lie about that!” Dad sounded angry “and there’s the other two victims!”

“Here’s what I think happened, your son and the girls drank and pissed off the wrong people”

“But-“ “there’s no real evidence it was the with besides the pentagrams and if your son was left alive there’s no way it was the witch! She leaves no victim alive!”

“……yes sir” what? What? WHAT?! Dad! You don’t believe me?! What the hell!

“Doesn’t that suck” Tori’s silent voice rang “if your dad doesn’t believe your story, then no one will” why does she sound happy!? Was she smirking? “You know Cory, you are truly stupid not to have noticed” huh? What? “I was there when you were caught-“ her smirk turned more evil like, sadistic “-but you didn’t see me did you? You never suspected a thing” I shook my head my eyes widening “well~” Her eyes! They were red! “things aren’t always as they seem, Cory. I’m going to let you live-“ She sat on my bed, she touched my face her small nails grazing my skin “-but no one will ever believe what you say, and I may change my mind and come to finish, the job” She smirked, I wanted to scream but it was in vain nothing came out. She suddenly got up “we’re moving to a new location, see you next time” her red eyes stared until she left, her red eyes still haunt me to this very day.
