Hello Neighbor: WTRB Stiched-on smiles

Trinity Bales PT 1

Trinity looked down to her floor, her mother's eyes piercing at her, she practically told her she was disappointed in her. She walked away while the room became an aura of disappointment with Trinity. While this was all happening, Trinity couldn't help but feel disappointed in herself, not for lying to her mother about what she was doing with Nicky, the kid Principal Abanante told her mom and dad about being a troublemaker. She was brought out of her thoughts and immediately looked at her walkie-talkie as she remembered Nicky. She ran to her window and saw her friend running to the Peterson house as her stomach started to turn...it reminded her about how this was technically the second time she was going to be breaking into that house and this time intentionally. It was kinda giving her flashbacks about her time in Shelbyville. Apart from she wanted to prove that she wasn't a troublemaker to her parents. Speaking of troublemakers she brought the walkie-talkie up as she spoke with a curious and scared voice as she spoke softly. " Nicky, what are you doing?" She saw Nicky glare up to her window, his Blue eyes looked up to her as he crouched down by Mr.Peterson's fence. " I'm going in...keep eyes on Mr.Peterson." He spoke in a whisper and surprisingly calm voice as she looked away to process what he was asking, something her mom forbade her to do...she was right she shouldn't be doing this, and neither should Nicky.

"Nicky...my mom is right I shouldn't be doing this and neither should you." she said with a somewhat desperation to him or maybe to herself as he rolled into a bush to hide as he looked back at her " I'm doing it...keep eyes on Mr.Peterson..." he said as he ignored her plead as she sighed as she took a moment to remind herself on why she doing this...this isn't because she wants to prove a point to Nicky or her parents or herself. She and Nicky are right about Mr Peterson, he's a murderer and has been getting away from his crimes for a while now and he was terrorizing the town, hurting anyone who got in his way. She and Nicky are the only ones willing to stop this murderer. to put an end to this monster's crimes and prove to herself and her parents that she can be trusted and seen as more than just a problem child. She looked at Nicky and looked at the house " Okay, well he's accepting you from the front door. So maybe you can get in from the window on your left." she said as he looked around in a confused matter. " I don't see it? " he said through the walkie-talkie as she mentally slapped her head as she looked at this dingus. She was about to yell to him to look to her left but then she thought about just going over there to help him. I mean she hadn't seen Mr.Peterson so far but she knew it was best to stay here. " NOT YOUR LEFT MINE! " she called out as he finally looked over to where she said he nodded and put on his goggles and gave her the thumbs up as he started to climb up the rick dicky pipe but as he climbed he almost fell off as the pipe. she froze only to let out a sigh of relief as the boy climbed the pipe and made it onto the roof. She watched only to freeze once Mr.Peterson came out the front door, she froze and watched Nicky try not to step on nails as he got inside the window, Mr.Peterson found Nicky's cupcake and for some reason he licked it. Trinity just watched as Mr.Peterson practically gagged at the taste of her dad's cupcake, were they that bad? She ignored her question and told herself to focus on the task on the tasks at hand. She looked back at Nicky who poked his head through the window at her as he wore his goggles with a blank face behind the goggles only to disappear feeling fear and just watching him sneak around practically feeling her hands shake.

Nicky made it to the bedroom only to check a chest that was near the key. She practically rolled her eyes at this dingus, what was he even doing?!?! He gave her a confused shrug only to look behind him to find the red key. Trinity let out a giant sigh as he gave her a smirk from a distance. " got it, hope this works " Nicky said as he held the key up almost like it was a trophy to him, and maybe it was to him. Trinity rolled her eyes before she froze....Mr.Peterson was gone.

" Wait where did Mr.Peterson go, no no. " Trinity practically trembled as she looked at where Nicky was " He's in the house! " she felt her stomach curly up as she heard Nicky's calm voice through the walkie-talkie. " Who cares? I got the key to the basement, going down. " She practically looked at the walkie-talkie in confusion " You should get out of there! " She screamed in the walkie-talkie as she suddenly froze....she looked over as Mr. Peterson's small yet creepy green eyes glared at her with a smile from behind Nicky who remained unaware of the evil shadow behind him only for his screams to twist her stomach. " Nicky...NICKY!!!! " Trinity screamed in her walkie-talkie, practically gripping it tighter, bringing her binoculars to her eyes. She looked through them as her vision got closer to the scene, only to see the horror of Mr.Peterson holding Nicky in a choke hold as the man squeezed the poor boy's life out of him. It was like time froze, and Trinity suddenly felt herself still in place. Freezing at the sight of her friend being choked to death by Mr.Peterson.
