The Witches Snake

Chapter 9

Amelia cleared her throat and licked her lip. Ceil and Sebastian just stood they starring at this strange girl. "First," she held up one finger. "My job was to stop the murdering. And that is exactly what I did. I stopped the murdering by stopping that girl and if I haven't I would have never tasted so guilty blood." She squeezed her body with her arms and turned left and right with her eyes closed and a large smile. "And second," she held up two fingers. "Daniel please referee what the queen said." Daniel bowed and cleared his throat.

"The queen said and I quote, 'All I ask is to keep the client alive this time for you can.'" Daniel bowed again and Amelia smiled.

"As you can see I never broke any rules. My dear queen said if I can, meaning I never promised anything." Ceil clenched his fists.

"Are you justifying murder?" He shouted jumped out of his chair. Amelia stood up slowly and pushed his forehand against her own.

"Take a good look at how your talking to. A birds got eyes for hay, a snakes got eyes from pray. One of them's a killer, the others his buffet." She grinned evilly and licked her lip making a slurping sound. She back up and clapped her hands together. Ceil got pissed.

"Sebastian this is an order," he took off his eye patch and Sebastian took off her glove. "Kill the person who is dearest to her! Teach her what it's like to be on the other side of her messes." Sebastian stood their and looked down at his master. He put the glove back on.

"Please forgive me my lord, but that is a order I cannot complete." He said bowing.

"What, why?!"

"Because their is no such person. Mrs. Amelia doesn't care for anyone." Amelia had the biggest and most sinister grin on her face in history. She leaned back and fell into her chair.

"Hahahahahaha!" She laughed kicking her feet. "Some doggy needs to learn his place. And I'll be glad to teach him." She laughed. Daniel stood behind Amelia with a slight grin on his face. Sebastian stepped back and Ceil turned around walking back to the couch.

"You want to talk about teaching? I teach you to respect human lives!" Ceil grabbed a steak knife from his jacket. He held it in his hand and ran straight towards Amelia. Daniel got in front of her but she gave him a death stare causing him to go back. Ceil jumped onto Amelia knocking over the chair. She just sat there and grinned. Now Amelia was on the floor with Ceil over her.

"Oh, poor little puppy." She said. The knife was hanging over her face. But it was like nothing was wrong. She licked her lip. Suddenly something broke down through the ceiling and landing on Ceil. Sebastian was fast enough to pick up his master and save him. The person stood in front of Amelia.

"Are you alright, my love?" He asked. Amelia smiled sweetly.

"Hello Jess!" She laughed. Pencils in hand he got into a battle stance.

"How dare you try and hard my lover, my princess, my beautiful Amelia?" He said holding his face. Amelia stood up and brushed the dust off her.

"Think about it Ceil. Do you think a teeny tiny puppy like you can hurt a cobra like me?" She asked blinking many times. Daniel ran up to her.

"Are you alright my Lady?" He asked dusting her dress off and fixing her hair.

"I can fight my own battles thank you." She winked and Daniel. "And plus, I could easily tell Jess was watching me." She laughed.

"A reaper!?" Ceil and Sebastian gasped in unison.

"Oh so you must be Ceil and Sebastian. My good friend Grell tells me about you both. Interesting indeed but not as much as my love." He said. Sebastian place Ceil back in the chair and took out a butter knife. Amelia made a face.

"What ugly knifes you have." She complained turning her head.

"Oh I've had prettier ones that would suit your liking." Ceil said crossing his legs and pressing his fingers to the other hands fingers. Amelia clenched her teeth and fists.

"Please calm down my Lady. We don't know for sure if he's the killer. Just be patient." He whispered in her ear. She took a deep breathe. Sebastian and Jess started to fight. Butter knives against pencils. "Please take this fight outdoors so you don't mess up my Lady's manor!" Daniel shouted. Jess bowed to Amelia and walked through the front door. Sebastian followed shortly behind.

"I would like if you and your butler left." Amelia said pointing towards the door. Ceil took his hat from the top of the couch and began to walk out. Suddenly a knife was thrown at Ceil's head. Missing by an inch. It was the diamond knife and Ceil stood in fear. Amelia walked over to him still paralyzed by fear. "Remember this Ceil," she got closer to his ear. "Never walk to close to a laying down Cobra. You'll never know if it's dead or playing tricks on you until your last breathing breathe." She licked her lip and sniffed Ceil's face. "I've always wondered what bitter taste your blood might hold." She laughed and removed the knife with tiny strains of dark blue hair flaking down. "Goodbye Ceil!" She cried out while he opened the door.

"Your a sick freak Amelia." Is all he said before the commotion from outside stopped. Amelia couldn't help by laugh. She grin was more sinister than the Grinches. Jess came back inside and hugged Amelia.

"How dare he call you a sick freak!" He said pouting. Amelia patted him on the head making him melt to the floor.

"Don't worry about it." She laughed. "After all he's right, I am one sick son of a bitch!" She laughed so hard it scared the reaper and demon next to her. "Now, stall we continue the search?" She asked like nothing happened.
