Chapter 11- Painter, Puppeteer, and a Demon

Jason got out the car and knocked on the door. Ivy could hear loud rock music playing on the other side, a man with a blue mask on with empty black sockets where the eyes were supposed to be dripping with a black tar-like substance answered the door. "Hey, E.J we need somewhere to hide out until everything cools down with Ebony, Liu, and Zero.", said Jason calmly leading Ivy into the house. "Hello my name is Eyeless Jack, call me E.J for short.", he said shaking her hand. Ivy looked around to see another man with glowing yellowish-orange eyes and a glowing mouth. "This is the puppeteer, puppeteer this is Ivy.", he said the puppeteer stood up and shook her hand. Ivy felt another sharp pain in her stomach, She fell down and began to cry. Jason ran up to her and asked her what's wrong, the pain made it almost impossible to speak, but she managed to say "I-I don't k-know....it h-hurts"Ivy said holding her side. E.J and the puppeteer carried her into Jason's car and Jason drived while the puppeteer sat on the passenger seat and Ivy and E.J layed in the back of the car. Jason drove as fast as he could to the mansion, Ivy wailed in the back of the car E.J lifted up her shirt and saw blood on his hands. "You might want to drive faster...she's bleeding.", said E.J applying pressure to her wound so it won't bleed out. "What do you mean bleeding?!", said Jason angry. "JUST DRIVE!!, said the puppeteer beating his hands up against the side of the door. Jason drove back to the mansion where L.J once took her and abruptly stopped the car. E.J got out the car and carried Ivy out bridal style into the apartment. Jason began to beat on the door when Jeff answered "What are you doing?!", he asked sternly, but Jason pushed passed him and grabbed Ivy and carried to where Dr.Smiley was. "SMILEY!...SMILEY!!", Jason screamed through out the basement. Dr.Smiley walked in with a first-aid kit and bandages and sighed. L.J came downstairs to see about yelling when he saw Ivy on the table with the puppeteer standing by her. "What happened?", L.J asked Jason peering over at Ivy. "Nothing she just started bleeding", said Jason in a gruff tone. "Bleeding....humans don't just start bleeding out of no where..Smiley do you know what happened?", asked L.J now annoyed by Jason. "Most likely she cut herself on something and probably just herself....nothing serious.", said Smiley helping Ivy stand up. Just then loud screaming came from upstairs that sounded like Sally, BEN came running downstairs with her and was screaming "RUN, RUN HE'S BACK!!". "BEN calm down who's back?", E.J asked nervously. "Zalgo's back", said BEN panting. L.J grabbed Ivy and carried out the back door of the basement and put her in a black car. "I know who ever Zalgo is I seen him before I passed out on the ground", Ivy said aggressively. "What!....he must be planning something..", L.J voice went on to mumble something inaudible. Ivy thought about what he might've said but a loud crashing sound came from the back of the car and Ivy's side started to hurt, she tried to fight back her tears but failed and silently cried until Jason looked in his read view mirror and saw her silently crying, he did't ask what was wrong because he didn't want to cause a scene. About ten minutes later Ivy's phone beeped she was about to pick it up when Jason grabbed it. Ivy didn't talk because her voice was raspy from crying. About 45 minutes later the car stopped, E.J opened the door up and carried Ivy into a house. Ivy buried her face in E.J's chest, he stopped Ivy was laying down on a couch when Ivy looked around she saw a normal living room. Ivy was weak from the blood and couldn't see very clearly but she made out a male figure with a glowing mouth she recognized as the puppeteer."Hey....you feeling ok?", he asked grasping her hand. Ivy slowly shook her hand to show the ''a little bit sign" as the puppeteer helped her up. Ivy's stomach began to hurt, she felt nauseous, she quickly got up and ran to the bathroom and began to vomit. She stood up to wash her hands when someone knocked on the door "You ok?", it was L.J. "Y-Yeah......Just si-", Ivy began to throw up again. L.J opened the door and helped Ivy stand up as he handed her some crackers and ginger ale. Ivy groaned as she walked back downstairs, then she remembered her phone that Jason took. "Jason...can I have my phone back?", said Ivy sitting in a chair by the couch. Jason handed her the phone, Ivy went through the messages and saw that Jason pretended to be her and asked Alexander to pick up the girls. Ivy was angry but was happy they were safe "Jason when are we leaving this house", She asked chewing a crackers. "We can't leave to soon considering your conditiom", he said looking up at her. "What do you mean my condition", she asked washing down cracker with ginger ale. "Ivy....you're pregnant".
