The boss walks back out without Quinn "Where the fuck is she?" Landon ask
"She uh... for someone to get the dagger they have to relive a certain part of their life and change it. Once they figure out what they've done they can get the dagger, I don't make the rules sorry."
"How long will this take?" Lyric ask
"Depends-"
"Hey guys!" Quinn comes out of the room waving at them
"WHAT!" The boss yells in shock
"Uh yeah, got the dagger let's go!" The boys could tells something is off about her but they don't push it "Thanks for the help." Quinn and the boys walk out the door.
"Yo Landon leaving already?" Nick says wiping a cup with a cloth
"Uh, yeah it was just a quick visit. I hope to see you again." They do a bro hug "Oh and she won't be calling you, she's taken." Landon sends Quinn a wink
"Poo, well it was lovely seeing you again. Can I take a photo with you? For your mom?" Nick ask
"Nah, I'm going to visit her. Don't worry about it." He says as they walk out of the bar, they start walking back "So you gonna tell us what happened?"
"What do you mean?" Quinn ask
"You had to relive something, what was it?" Lyric ask
"Oh nothing! Just a stupid mistake I made anyways Landon are you going to visit you mom?"
"No, if I do she'll just worry more it's better if she's left wondering than having an answer." That was a lie, half a lie. Landon didn't visit her but he did send her a letter, explaining everything to her and how he's sorry, he even sent her a photo of what he looks like to add to her collection and she responded almost immediately with a photo of her family, she was happy and that's all he cared about.
As they walk, they walk by a church that Quinn only recognized now. She feels her whole world stop, shrink and spin. She hears muffled sounds as she stares at the cross on top of the church, that fucking cross. All the memories come back... all of them
Flashback !!!
I was always a good kid, my parents were the problem. They were satanic people, loved Satan, they did weird things like give there blood, making the star symbol and chanting things. But no, I was Christian. Forever in my heart, most people think Christians are holy and they have no flaws.
I like to dress how I want, I act how I want I'm not a crazy freak who would suck Gods dick just for him to like me, no I just pray and believe he will hear me. I've read the bible once, it was quite boring but I had to.
I've drank Holy water every night just incase my parents summoned some type of demon... which they did. They summoned some type of demon, it went far where the demon would show up and they would talk to him but no one was there it was just.... air.
"In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit." I start
"SHUT UP!" Father says bursting into her room "YOU'RE SCARING HIM AWAY!!! STOP PRAYING YOU BITCH!!"
"Fuck off dad, leave me alone please. I don't interrupt your rituals, please don't interrupt my praying." I say calm, I was expecting a response but he just closed my door.
The next day I was woken up by my mother, this time she was in a sun dress. No dark clothes, no dark make up and all her tattoos were covered "Come on honey... it's Sunday time for church."
"Mother, you don't go to church, it's also 3am."
"No your clock is broken, come on bubba! Time for God!" I just nod and get up, I feel something off. I look around my room. My cross didn't have God there anymore, it was just a plain cross.. did it fall off? Impossible... that means.
"God is dead." I whisper
"What's that honey?"
"Mother! Mother God is dead! He's gone!"
"Honey what are you talking about, come on lets go to the church."
"NO NO MA WE CAN'T HE'S DEAD!!" I yell as she drags me to the car, God is dead how can he be dead.
I sit there in the back of the car shocked, we stop in front of a church where my dad is waiting for us. I walk up to dad and hug him, he doesn't hug me back though "Father he's dead."
"Come on, start praying. You're going to need it."
When we walk in I see the devil's star on the floor and candles on each corner, I look at the cross in the middle... he wasn't there either. He's really gone. "Lay down in the middle." Mother says
"Bu-"
"Lay.Down.Now." I just nod and lay in the middle, they stand on each side of me. They start chanting, over and over. In some language "Mother?" I say, she doesn't respond. I look around, then I feel blood drip on my face, I look up to see my dad cut his hand and is dripping it all over me so is mother.
"Mother, father what are you-"
"NOW WE ASK YOU SPIRIT TAKE OVER HER BODY! TAKER HER SOUL HER MIND HER FINGERS!!!" Father yells
"WHAT NO!" I shriek about to get up but mother is straddling me with a knife in her hand "MOTHER NO STOP PLEASE!!! PLEASE!!!"
"Be gone." Mother whispers before stabbing me straight in the heart, "Nothing is happening... why isn't anything happening." I feel my eyes become heavy.
"Why." I choke out
"JOHN WHY ISN'T ANYTHING HAPPENING!!! Quinn baby stay with us! QUINN!!"
"Shut up Carol, I knew I should've been the one to stab her. She'd dead. Oh well." Then everything went black... Oh well? I'm fucking pissed.
End of Flash back
"QUINN!" She snaps out of her trace and looks at al the worried faces "Oh shit we thought we lost you." Landon says letting out a breath
"W-what happened?" She says looking around realizing their back on the cliff and not in the town anymore.
"You froze in front of the church and you didn't move once, we just carried you back hoping you'd go back but you were in shock and didn't move once until now." Landon says
"Is it closed?"
"What?"
"The church... is it still opened?"
"Uh yeah... I believe it's run by the Brooks." My fucking parents
