❛ how would i tell her that she's all i think about? ❜

        𝐼𝑁 𝑂𝑅𝐷𝐸𝑅 𝑇𝑂 𝐹𝑈𝐿𝐹𝐼𝐿 Kai's greatest wishes, people in the movement had to make sacrifices. Even unwilling sacrifices.

Gary had been nothing but loyal to Kai since the moment they met. He even cut off his own arm because Kai suggested. He needed someone to be the representation of all that is what Kai despises about women -- their freedom to make choices for themselves.

Kai had left Pearl to take care of this media-driven murder on her own since he didn't want any traces of blood upon himself he may miss for the interview they planned later. Pearl was fine to do this on her own, she preferred it.

Gary wandered the Planned Parenthood building by himself since she had been locked in by the others. He was alone, terrified, and awaiting answers. All he could hear was the sounds of multiple footsteps. Within moments, the bundle of clowns surrounded Gary, stalking him, preying on him, forcing him to the middle of their sacrificial circle.

Gary watched them all closely, ready to defend himself if necessary since none of this was part of the plan he was informed of. Quickly, Gary's attention was brought to a loud metal sound from above. He turned to see Pearl, in her clown costume, but no mask and her hair down, her eyes filled with nothing but darkness. She stepped down each stair, her knife clanging against the metal bar, which made Gary flinch with every sound.

"What's going on? This is not the plan. What's happening?" Gary questioned as Pearl got to the ground floor. She walked through Winter and Ally and stood in front of the man, who let out a breath of despair. "Pearl, what did I do? Why is this happening?"

"Kai wants this."

"The Divine Ruler?"

"Gary, you are part of the Night of a Thousand Tates; Kai's version of Helter Skelter, Charles Manson's brainchild. You are vital to this movement." Pearl expressed as she put her hands on Gary's shoulders, the blade resting eerily close to his neck. Gary wasn't afraid. He was in love with her bloodlust as many others are.

"But...But I don't want to leave...I don't want to leave the Divine Ruler." Gary acknowledged, looking deep into her eyes and wishing that he could stay there. He looked up at this woman, a goddess he believed she to be, but she reassured, "Gary, you aren't leaving him. You are part of this movement, of his mind."

Pearl brought Gary into a hug, one arm going around his shoulders while the other hand holding the blade moved against his stomach. He could feel the tip of the knife against his stomach, but felt ethereal bliss when she put her lips by his ear, whispering only loud enough for Gary to hear. "You may sleep peacefully now, my child."

"Thank you, Allmother."

With one swift motion, blood began to pour from Gary's stomach. He fell to his knees as Pearl stepped away from him, watching his look of admiration pointed to her as the rest of the clowns moved in and began to stab him. Gary was never Kai's, he was Pearl's. Yet more of her mind games starting to unravel. It seemed her newly awakened and reborn state was driving her intentions. It was chilling how numb she was to seeing a good friend die before her.

"Rip out his intestines and put him by the front door. Write 'stop the slaughter' on the door in blood. Make this as gruesomely political as possible." Pearl ordered as she walked through the front door, Winter following her out. Winter was quite worried with how easily Pearl was doing this, more so than usual. "Aren't you going to help?"

"Do you want to end up like him?" Pearl suddenly turned around, getting right in Winter's face. She flinched, not expecting her to snap. Winter shook her head. "Then do what I say."

Pearl turned right back around and went to the car they brought with them. Winter watched her a moment before turning back to everyone dealing with Gary. Pearl opened up the trunk where she stared lifelessly at the body bag. She picked it up and dragged it along the ground, it being quite heavy.

As everyone got outside with Gary, they watched as Pearl began to haphazardly throw dismembered body parts around the parking lot. They saw her kick a hand away as if it was nothing but a rock. Pearl grabbed a jar of what looked like blood and began to write on the ground with it, using her hands as the paintbrush to her masterpiece.

What was most disturbing was when Pearl took the final piece of her painting out of the body bag. With her clothes covered in blood, her hands drenched with red, Pearl lifted the decapitated head belonging to her father and stared at it. Winter began to walk towards her, wanting to make sure that her sister in law was alright. Although, Winter stopped dead in her tracks when she very suddenly saw Pearl throw the head against the ground with as much force as possible and let out a horrific yell.

Winter watched as Pearl stared down at her horrific message, cautiously walking towards her. Winter read aloud the message she had written in blood, "SCUM of the Earth."

"My dad dismembers my mom, so I dismember him." Pearl chuckles. "Funny how life comes around."
