Chapter 6

Start writing your story

Oh my, now is this how they chose to start this story? How curious, oh? Well hello there I don't believe we've met yet. But we will in due time. For now I do believe I am bored of poor sweet Cassio, so why don't we move along hm?

         A child stood solemnly beside a creature of plants, her hair tangled and bustling with leaves and such. However tied in a neat little ribbon is a bow upon her head. Carefully she smoothed out her long dress as her eyes watched a smiling catlike creature tear a human limb from limb..

       "Have you rested long enough?" The creature of plants asked, its features vaguely rabbitlike and yet its fangs gruesomely huge.

        A smile formed over the girl's lips as she nodded, in her hands appeared a teacup and saucer as she sipped from a vaguely purple drink. Mushrooms bobbing in it with unnatural colors. "I have Mr Rabbit! I am certain now is a wonderful time to go once Mr Cat is done," her voice was dainty. A sound that contrasted the rabbit's loud growling tone.

      "I see, cat. Let us go, she is ready to leave," the rabbit spoke to the black cat as it dragged its long tongue over his gore covered claws. His smile dragged over his face in a twisted amusement before he stood up and walked towards them.

      Quickly they set off, the young girl upon the cat's back as they wandered among the expanse of trees, their branches twisting over their heads as they passed a town rather close by.

       There in their view was a lone 'creature' its box-like head hung low as it sat alone beside a broken down house, blood trickling from the doorstep just as it oozed down the creature's neck. There sat the girl with the TV head. Her body slack against the house as sounds of static crying could be heard.

       "Psst kitty kitty let's go see if she is okay, it would be rude not to," the girl whispered using her nails on the cats coat earning a purr.

       "Too pure, too pure! We will take her if she is nice, if she is naughty I will eat her," the cat purred under her touch as he and the rabbit stopped walking to turn towards where the woman was sitting.

       Her head raised as the beasts lumbered towards her, a surprised exclamation point appeared on her screen as she moved to stand up to run, but her eyes landed on the small girl on the cat's back. That caused a confused question mark to appear on her screen.

        "Hello! Who are youu?" The girl called out with a smile before pausing "oh no that's rude of me! I'm Alice! It's an honor to meet you!" She smiled again after introducing herself.

      The TV took a second before words flashed onto the face of it, 'I can't remember my name, but hello' it typed out before the words disappeared letter by letter.

      "No name? Oh! Just like Kitty here and Bunny!" She smiled, patting the large cat's head before sliding off his back. Of course the two gave a disgruntled grumble upon her choosing to leave the safety of their fur. "Oh shush! You will scare her more, sit boys." She pouted, earning a whine or two before they followed her orders.

        'They listen to you?' She questioned the child. Her head tilting slightly as she watched the young girl giggle and nod.

    "Well not really, they just sorta like making me smile so they do as told sometimes. Other than that they do what they like," she explained with an air of cheeriness to her voice. She spoke with such a soft grace that one could almost forget that the world is currently going to hell.

    'That is' the screen seemed to pause as if considering her words carefully, 'rather... intriguing?' she finished finally. Her expression seeming quizzical. She earned another laugh from the kid in front of her.
