The Witches Snake

Chapter 13

Amelia was always a strange girl. Her whole family were a bit nuts. But out of her brothers she was the craziest. Anthony found humor in just about anything and everything. He laughed if someone got hurt, if he hurt someone or if someone even died. Andrew had no fear. He would do anything that seemed fun even if it was very dangerous. He jumped off bridges into water, stole from guards and hurt people that didn't deserve it all for entertainment. Her parents were the founders of the Queens Cobra and got the name from a snake that attacked them one day that they killed with nothing but a pebble. The snake was large, gray and had a black star on its head. They never had a good sense of right and wrong but knew what murder was and loved it. They taught their children how to kill, who to kill and how to do it. Amelia was the worst of her family. When she was born her parents felt a great sense of fear fill they bodies. When she was younger she often tried to kill her older brother and would repeatedly hurt and torment her young brother. "Don't worry. It's all for fun!" She would say. When her mom and dad decided to take their children on a job that night was Amelia's first murder. The guy had killed his wife and was sorry. Her parents talked to him while in the back Amelia watched from afar. She grabbed a steak knife from the kitchen and stabbed him in the back. She parent jumped out of their seats. She stood in back on the couch with splattered blood on her face. Anthony laughed while Andrew picked his body. She held the knife to her face looking deeply into it. She grinned and licked the silver blade.

"Gross!" Anthony shouted. She smiled and licked the rest off her face. Her mother came over the wiped the blood from her pink hair. She smiled at her daughters actions.

"Your eyes shine as bright as the blood of the guilty." She then hugged her daughter. From then on Amelia was taken to each job from her parents along with her brothers. Her eyes stood for blood as the color was beautiful to her. She hair stood for the night sky at dawn and dusk when the day ended like everything else. But on the day her family was killed she snapped. After she screamed Bloody Mary she stood up and looked around her feet. White shoes stained with red, blue dress covered in blood. Her eyes no longer stood just for blood. It was the blood of the guilty. And everyone was guilty in her eyes. Every chance she got was the killing moment. She didn't care if she got her family back she never did. All she wanted was to make sure no one that was guilty should live. She met Daniel after a job from the queen. It was 2 weeks after the night and she had just slaughtered a whole family of thefts. Her signature blade in hand as she looked over her work of art. Daniel walked up to her and stood behind her.

"I've heard your wish," Amelia turned and saw his face. He was smiling so evilly and yet she didn't do anything.

"And you are..." she waited before he responded.

"My name is Daniel and I'm am a demon from hell. If you make a contract with me I will be your butler and follow your every wish. The only price is your soul after your wish is granted." Amelia licked her blade clean and licked her top lick like she normally does.

"A wish uh. And it can be anything. Anything at all?" Daniel nodded. "Okay then demon I will make a contract with you. And my wish..." Daniel raised an eyebrow at her wish. In all his years he never found such a trilling master. A week later he became her butler. "To kill everyone that is guilty in my eyes." That was her wish. A wish of a snake. A slippery, sneaky snake. It's said that snakes are known for being sneaky and clever. If the cobra is preying on a bird in the sky it will play dead. The bird, stupid as it is, comes down wanting to take the dead creature and eat it. When the bird in on the ground with its guard down the cobra strikes. With fangs to kill a hippo the bird doesn't stand a chance and eventually died in the mouth of the cobra.

Amelia stood outside Ceil's manor. Her breath slow yet excited. Her head was tilted causing pink to cover most of her face leaving only half her wicked smile and one strong eye in sight. Jess and Daniel stood behind her only a few steps back not wanting to get in her way. She knocked once on the door. It was hard, rough and rude. Footsteps could be heard from the other side of the door. It opened slightly with a thin face in the crack. "My lady Amelia, what brings you here?" Sebastian shot her a quick smile which she ignored.

"I need to speak with your master for a moment. Don't worry it took take long, not long at all." She looked behind him and noticed Ceil walking down the flight of stairs with a cane. She pushed open the door more and walked inside the warm home. Large it was and warm it is. Ceil stared at her before he made it to the last step.

"Amelia? What is it?" He leaned against the wooden banister on the long stair case. She walked up to him and was about 1 foot away from his face. She smiled and held out her knife.

"I found this outside on the street. I was about to take it then remembered you saying you owned some pretty knives." She held the knife in her palms and stretched them to his face. He looked at it for a moment then picked it up. He examined it closely then smiled.

"Yes this is mine. Thanks for bringing it back." He began to put the knife in his jacket inside pocket before Amelia grabbed his wrist. Her eyes were staring straight into his soul and her smiled was barely called innocent. Ceil looked up and met her gaze. "Yes?" She said nothing. Sebastian starting to walk over when Amelia ripped off her long white glove with her teeth. She placed her forearm over her face and smirked.

"This is an order for Daniel and Jess. Bring Sebastian back to the depths of hell. In other words, kill him." Ceil opened his mouth but before a sound came her hand covered his mouth. "You can't make a command if your mouth is closed. And now. Ceil Phantomhive, prepare to die!"
