Creepypasta: My Best Friends Were Never Real

PART 2

The setup was okay for a while, i spent a maximum of two hours a day with them after school and homework. They seemed to be grateful and they even began to look abit more like their heathy selves again, gaining back all their lost weight and loosing the bruising on their legs, even though Variet was still abit angry and Chrysalis seemed to be depressed most of the time, it was obvious that the happy,joyous, vibrant friends i had in my early years were long gone.

The setup we had lasted from when i was 14 to when i was 20. I went to college, got married got a job, even had my own child. I had so many new responsiblities and tasks that i couldn't spend at times even a few minutes with Variet or Chrysalis, and just like before the begging and yelling resumed, exept this time it was more vile...more aggresive...more filled with venom and hate, it was so horrid that it was following me into my sleep, and i had severe nightmares of them daily, thats when that night came.

I was going to sleep, my husband had work late, so it was just me and my baby girl alone at the house. I hadn't seen Variet or Chrysalis in a few days and i was feeling kind of paranoid, and it took me ages to feel at all tired. when i finally started to doze off, i heard deep breathing, not from a man, but from something inhuman, something sinister, something demonic. I turned around and lost control of my bladder seconds after. It was Variet and Chrysalis or at least what was left of them, they looked completely emaciated, their skin stretched over their non existend skeletons, their once vibrant hair now thined out to almost nothing, their eyes had sunken far into their sockets, their clothes now dirty and soiled as well as 2 sizes too small, their faces decreped and wrinckled, they now looked more like they were in their 90's that mid 20's. Variet stood over me menacingly, while Chrysalis was sitting against the wall, sobbing quietly. me and Variet stared at each other for what seemed like hours, millions of questions were running through my head, had i really neglected them to this extent? how long exactly had they been like this, do they even still see me as their friend anymore? or just a human power charger? finally Variet spoke in a voice that could even make the devil himself cower ''Silence woman of betrayel, you shall lose what matters to you the most for the sin you have put upon us. you have brought this on yourself'' and with that Variet ran out of room and down the hallway, with Chrysalis limping after her. it took me about a minute to realize that they were running in the direction of my baby daughters room, i jumped out of bed and raised down the hallway with the speed that only a mother could have when knowing her child is in danger. I burst into the room and saw Variet standing over my sleeping little girl, holding a knife in her raised hand. ''GET AWAY FROM HER YOU BITCH!!'' i screamed so loudly that she dropped the knife in shock. Chrysalis ran behind Variet in fear. ''Give us life and your pathetic spawn will survive'' Variet said darkly, I wanted to beat her head in, to rip out her eye balls, and even beat her using Chrysalis, but i knew giving them even a small amount of attention could save their feeble lives. ''No'' i said with an icy cold tone, ''you never existed, i control your lives, i brought you into this world and its time for me to take you out'' i hissed at them both and tears ran down their faces.

I never ad knowledged them again after that, i moved into a hotel room for a few days telling my husband i just needed sometime off work and stress. When in reality i knew that no one would be same around me as long as Variet and Crysalis were here. Variet began to become weaker and weaker with every day of her being ignored, her threats and screams soon became weeps and begs. Chrysalis eventualy couldn't walk or even stand anymore and from what i could tell, would have to drag her self to keep up with me. With each and everyday it became harder and harder for me to look at them even though i wanted to, one day i glanced at them and that image truamitizes me even today. they had shrunked down to half their original sizes and their coulors had turned to an almost murky shade of gray, despite a few hairs on their head, they were completely bald, and were even missing their clothing and most of their distinctive features, the only way i could tell them apart was Variets still radient red lipstick. They were both lying on the ground, Chrysalis was lying in fetal position, bearly breathing while Variet looked up at me with despair, her eyes pleading me for some type of interaction, i ignored them both. After about 5 days i came home from grocery shopping, and walked into a horror show. Variet was crawling down the stairs, the lower half of her body, nearly gone and completely deflated, her upper half completely gray and almost looking like a wax dummy, Chrysalis was no where to be seen. Finally Variet stopped at my feet ''Kill me'' she groaned almost so quiet it was like a whisper, i stepped over her like nothing was happening.

That night while i was sleeping n bed trying to put the scene from earlier out of my mind, when i saw something shine from outside my closed eyes, i opened them and saw...Variet and Chrysalis, just like how i saw them from my childhood, they looked youthful bright and vibrant, exploding with childhood bliss and innocence.They stared at me compassionatley and warmly, and uttered two words in unison ''Thank you'' before slowly vanishing before my eyes, I never saw them again.

I moved back in with my husband they next day and well he was just happy to see me again, we spent the next few weeks with the baby going on family outings and vacations, it was the best times of my adult life. Its been about 4 years since then and things are still going just fine, my little girl just had her fourth birthday, and ive just been having a blast taking her everywhere and anywhere. However it seems my childs been using her imagination just as actively as i have been. Its nothing like Variet and Chrysalis, i don't think theres anyway to bring them back, but recently something happened my little girl Candy introduced me to her imaginary friend Felicia and from what she tells me she seems nice enough, but recently something Candy said...startled me. We were sitting in the garden playing pretend tea when Candy told me that felicia wanted her to tell me something on her behalf, I asked Candy what Felicia wanted to tell me and Candy said ''Felicia wants you to know Variet and Chrysalis says hi''.
