A Painter's Love

Chapter 3

Today was a training day. I was rather excited to be training, y'know? Out of the dark mansion, learning to be a proxy, learning stealth and quickness. It was great! 

   In my training, I was told to practice on BEN. My instructions were to talk to him, say I gotta go, sneak behind him when he's not noticing me, and then put my knife up to his neck and wait to be released. Of course, it wasn't the blade side of the knife against BEN's neck. I was told not to hurt him in my training.  

The real thing was going to the park at a quarter past 10 and following some girl home. It really wasn't nothing. I've kind of always thought of killing someone. Only that's what my instructions were. Helen showed me the girl and I gasped when I saw who it was. I couldn't do this. I know this girl was the one who teased me, and bullied me, but to do that to her parents? Oh well, I can't back down now. I signed up for this and at least when I get back I won't have to deal with her. 

 So I silently followed her home. To taunt her, I called her name.

 "Lillian..." I said in a sweet mother-like voice. I hid behind a tree after I said her name and she turned around quite quickly. 

"W-who said that!? Who's there!?" She sounded frightened. That's surprising... The school bully sounds like she's afraid. 

"Lillian, you sound afraid... What's the matter? You aren't afraid of the dark, are you?" I said this quite calmly, but sounded like a mother. I knew Helen was watching. This probably wasn't smart, but I knew if I could get her to run home, I could kill her in an alley way by tripping her and dragging her into the depths of the alley way. 

"Who are you? Why are you following me? How do you know my name?" 

She seems to be trembling. While she was still facing my direction I ran to an alley and threw my voice to the park. 

"Run... Run as fast as you can, Lillian. Or I'll kill you." She started running my direction. She kept looking back as well. What a pity. When she wasn't looking, I tripped her and dragged her into the alley. She looked up at me and saw my face. 

"N-no... It can't be. They said you were missing! WHY ARE YOU HE-" 

"Shhh... You wouldn't want me to be found would you?" 

"Look, Allyson, I'm really sorry for what I di-" 

"Sorry doesn't fix what you have done... Say goodnight, Lillian..." 

 At that, I drove my knife into her head and wrote: She said goodnight... She seems happier now... 

  After that I drew a smile on top of her mouth in her blood and tilted her head back. I grabbed my knife and ran away. I was happier now. 

**HELEN'S P.O.V**

"Allyson, you did extremely well." This was true. I liked how she taunted her. Although, Allyson seemed a little surprise that she was killing her school bully. I bet she doesn't know why I chose Lillian. 

Of course, I know every bit about my beloved Allyson. I know she was bullied by that girl and all Allyson wanted to do was to strangle her. She got her wish... 

"Thanks. I'm surprised she tried to beg for forgiveness. Ha! What a punk." 

"Ha. You handled it well. You should considered saying "time to say goodnight" more. It's a great phrase and it suits you well."

"Yeah sure. I will make sure to do that." 

******************************************************

When we got back to the mansion, Allyson went up to the bedroom to draw Lillian's death. It's almost like she felt bad. But I can tell she didn't. I walked in the bedroom without her knowing and looked at what she was drawing. By the look on her face, she looked pleased. She had this.. grimacing grin. I waited till she was finished to tell her dinner was ready. She asked me how long I was there, but I didn't reply. All I knew was that she would draw her victim's death every time after a kill. 

  **Eyeless Jack's P.O.V**

 All I've ever wanted was Allyson. As soon as I heard her soft, sweet voice I wanted her. I know, I know. I have a girlfriend. But this is Allyson. There's no way Allyson likes Bloody!

   I went into Bloody's room and tried to take Allyson in her sleep. I don't really think that was a good idea. 

  "ACK," I screamed as My arm was twisted behind my back and a knee was pushed quite hardly into my back as I was pushed to the ground. 

  "Jack, what do you want!? You have a girlfriend!" She practically screamed this at me and Bloody groggily listened to the conversation. I could tell he was awake and he didn't say anything. He just listened. 

" Allyson.. I know. I've just.. I heard your voice and I wanted it for myself..."

"Well too bad because I like Helen. I always have and I always will."

"Oh.." Knowing that he was awake, I knew he was slightly afraid. I could smell it. 

"Now get out." 

"Wait. How do you like Bloody? Like.. More than a friend?" 

"DUH! Get out you creep!" 

I really wonder how Bloody will react to this.
