Survive The Night

Killing Catherine

I had them all where I wanted them. Right in that one room, where it all began. Their fathers pushed me around and mocked me, now we'll see who gets the last laugh. I looked to my right to see my apprentice, a blond haired, pale faced boy with an obscure hatred for his brother.

  "Cannon get ready, this is the start of our revenge!" I hissed.

"Finally, I'll show father who should REALY be in charge!" he whispered back, flashing a big, dark, deadly smile.

   "Great," a voice said somewhere in front of us "first everyone almost dies now this?"

"Now?" Cannon asked squirming.

       "Any time, boy."

He smiled again and lunged into the room.

     "What the-?" I heard Teddy shriek "Catherine! Get out of here!"

I heard Catherine's little feet run through the door, she was carrying Bubba. Son of that cursed Balloon Boy. No worries just one more step. . . Catherine was right in front of me. I was pleased with myself for conjuring such a plan and they would finally pay. I laughed as I lunged myself at her. She shrieked and fell to the floor, sending that stupid boy rolling head over heal.

   "Good to see you again, Catherine." I said pinning her to the ground.

"Pu-puppet M-man!" She wheezed.

      "I am PUPPET MASTER!!!" I laughed.

"W-what are you doing?" she was crying now, perhaps because I was standing on her.

   "Getting my revenge!" I laughed again.

   Something hard flew into my head knocking me off Catherine.

"Leave her alone or I'll shove a balloon down your throat and pull it back out your nose!" a nine-year-old bot shouted as he held up several balloons.

   "Well, well, well, what do we have here?" I said stepping forwards.

"Don't hurt him! Leave him alone! Please!" Catherine shouted helplessly, still trying to recover from me trampling her.

    "Shut it." I said kicking her across the room.

"That's it you stupid, scary, son of a jerk!" Bubba yelled "You asked for it!"

      He came charging at me, head down and fist out. Like a goat getting ready to attack. I watched him as he did this, a sudden joy played on my lips. I sided stepped and sent him flying into the wall. Knocking him  unconscious.

"Everyone's tied up, sir." Cannon said stepping out of the office.

    Catherine laid still, barely breathing. Only a soft whimper came from where she laid.

"Every well, you know the deal, the child is yours." I replied.

An evil little smirk slowly stretched across his face. He went over to Catherine and picked her up. Taking her down a dark hallway, in which I knew she'd never return from. Alive.
