Diamonds

I stare up into my beautiful homemade constellation, full of stars. The stars are diamonds, in an array of different colors. Never enough stars. I need more stars. Now. Thanks to my favorite company, this wish can be fulfilled. They take human ashes and compress them into the beautiful gems. I cremate at home. Never enough stars. I would say I have about fifty of them, I still need more. With this much of a craving, it is essential that I obtain them regularly. Of course that means killing them myself. I have found out a way to make it almost painless for the victim, or should I say glitters. I call them that. Much prettier. I simply just slip a special tablet in their drink that makes them really sleepy. They eventually fall into a deep slumber, and never wake up. Nobody knows. The loved ones of the glitters think that the person has just vanished. I will say that people get suspicious, but an investigation is pointless. There are no fingerprints, and the tablets are legal. They are what put animals down when they get sick. Why they don't just make the animal into a beautiful diamond remains a mystery to me. Fingerprints don't show after fire. Several times have loved ones of the glitters wailed curses at me, horrible words. They clearly must be jealous. They want to become diamonds as well. You see, I love everyone, and am happy to carry out their wish. They never say that they want to be a diamond, I think that they a just shy. I'm normal I think, just making death pretty. So pretty. You think I'm sane, right? Marvelous. Oh, you don't? Hmm. Would you care for something to drink?

Author's note:

Hello! I hope you liked that short little bit of writing. It used to be better, but it got deleted. Yes I'm mad, considering it closed out when I was making the cover art, even after I saved it. Putting my anger aside, let's get down to bidness. I wrote this story as something a bit spooky for Halloween, oh how I love the holiday. I might do more of these, they're pretty simple and good to fill in the time between adding new parts. Oh, I wanted to tell you that I am holding a contest. As you very we'll know I have not updated my story titled Alone. I HAVE WRITERS BLOCK HALP. Basically, you come up with an idea for what should happen next in the story. Just leave it in the comments. Whoever wins will be a character in the story of their choice, so yeah. Thank you for listening! Luv ya! Byeeeeeee
