The Phantom Wolf

Chapter 46 (I'm Not A Celebrity!)

*3rd Person POV*

"Come here Pearl!" Emmet called out to the hybrid.

Following the voice, she entered the backyard. Spotting Emmet, standing amongst multiple boxes.

"What is it?" Pearl warily asked.

"They arrived!" Emmet exclaimed, gesturing to the boxes. Which upon closer inspection, appeared to be packages from the post office.

"What arrived?" Pearl asked while frowning. A hint of curiosity could be heard in her voice.

"Your dinner!" Emmet smirked.

"What." Pearl said bluntly.

Picking up one of the boxes and bringing it in front of her, Emmet opened it up, revealing what was inside to Pearl, "This is your lunch!" Emmet grinned at the hybrid, clearly very proud of himself.

Looking down into the box, Pearl's face scrunched up in disgust. "You are kidding." She said, looking at Emmet in disbelief.

Inside the box, was a tub. And the tub, was filled with cockroaches.

"Nope!" Emmet smirked at Pearl. "And there's more where this came from!" He said, placing the container on the ground, he speedily opened all of the other boxes and placed them in front of Pearl, so she could see the contents of each one.

Every single box, was filled with some sort of bug or critter. Termites, Roaches, Ants, Spiders and Beetles, she could even see a Scorpion in one of the boxes.

Pearl stared at the animals, then at Emmet, then back to the animals. She was speechless. What the hell was she supposed to say?

Emmet grinned at her, "Take your pick. Which one are you gonna eat first?" He asked, way to happily for the current situation.

"Im not eating those." Pearl immediately deadpanned.

"Yes you are." Emmet replied confidently.

"No I'm-" Pearl got cut off.

"You don't have a choice." Emmet declared. "This is what I'm telling you to do in exchange for the whole dress fiasco at Edward's wedding." He smirked victoriously at her.

Pearl paused and stared at the animals. There were at least 40 animals here. Some different species, some were the same.

"I have to eat all of them?" Pearl questioned, after a minute of silence.

"Yep" Emmet answered, popping the 'p'.

"But they're alive." She protested.

"They won't be once you chew them." Emmet smirked.

"What the hell man?!" Pearl yelled, officially disgusted.

"Oh come on! We drink blood from animals! This is hardly any different!" He argued.

"They, aren't creepy! Nor do deers, have eight legs!" Pearl shouted.

"Heh. Well if humans can do this, then you can too." Emmet responded.

"What the hell do you mean humans do this?!" Pearl yelled out in surprise and disgust.

"I saw it on 'I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here'. A lady ate a live spider for a challenge. It was epic!" Emmet exclaimed.

"That is gross." Pearl stated bluntly.

"Wouldn't know. Never tried it when I was human. Now, stop wasting time. Chop chop. Choose your first!" Emmet said in a dramatic voice. Almost like he was announcing the next opponent in a major competition.
