Hook Line And Keep Her

Thin Ice

Amber and Sky are the closest and Scarlet's behind them. I just try to move farther back and try to calm my shaking.

"You have some explaining to do!" Amber says. She tries to grab me but when I flinch and move farther back which didn't seem possible she retracted her hand. The 3 girls infront of me look at each other as if having a private conversation.

"Why Are You So Scared?" Sky asks. Her voice starting to sound more like her usual voice. I couldn't respond and just kept shaking.

"Hey hey hey now! Shh! It's ok!" Scarlet says moving closer. I still back away. Now they're really concerned.

"Guys! Come here now!!" Amber yells. The others rush over. The original 3 explained what was happening. It was like seeing stone statues turning into a soft fluffy pillow! When they heard what was going on their whole bodies went from overly tense to overly relaxed in seconds!

"Ok come on out there's nothing to be afraid of." Violet says in an actual soothing voice bending down. She held out her hand for me but I continued to shake and cower back. Also all their voice sound like normal now and somehow I think that scares me more.

"Someone go get him. Maybe he can help." Mei says. I got more scared because I wasn't really paying attention to their conversation and then I hear that. I just keep cowering and shaking more when they try to interact w/ me. Next thing I know is they're all leaving. As soon as they all get out papa comes in.

"Mocking J! You had me fucking terrified!" He says in a bit sad good portion if happy but mainly relieved voice. I immediately start to calm down.

"Hey papa!" I say in a happy but small voice.

"Hey come here kid! Don't leave this old man waiting!" He says jokingly. I crawl out and hug him. I start to relax more and breath easier.

"How did you do that!?" I hear Tori ask. I tense and try to go back under the sink.

"Hey! Don't worry kiddo! I gotcha now! They wanted me to help keep you from under there so they're not allowed to control you or me at all today!" He says. I lighten up.

"Wait! For real!!" I exclaim.

"Yep!" He says popping the p. I get excited.

"Damn do you really hate us that much?" Violet asks.

"You guys scared the fucking shit out of her! It has nothing to do w/ hate! Also has she ever come off as the type of person who likes to be controlled?!" Papa scolds.

"That's true. But still it hurts seeing her happy because she doesn't have to deal w/ us." Mei says.

"Anyways you guys can fend for yourselves today. I'm not letting her think of you guys for the rest of the day." Papa announces. Then he carries me out of the room. He places me on the counter in the kitchen.

"Wait are we gonna make pancakes!?" I ask excited. He laughs and nods. Now what I love about his cooking is he likes to make things from scratch. And he adds thing into the batter for pancakes that makes them taste 10 times better! We start cooking and it takes 30 minutes for the batter to be completely down. We're only waiting for it to rise. So me and papa are just talking.

"Babe! We told you come back once you were done!" William says. As he gets closer I start to cling more to papa.

"Hey! Go back to your girlfriends and let us have our boyfriend!" Britney says. I start shaking again. And it starts to get more difficult to breath.

"Help! They just made her worse!" Papa says. I immediately hear stomping of feet then I hear a loud thud! I look over to see Violet has William's throat in her hand and his body to the wall. Britney is trying to get her husband back and under stand what's going on.
