No pov
Everyone turned expectantly towards Annabelle. All color had left her face and her eyes had gone dark.
"I'm not-"
"That much of a monster," her father interrupted her, "Is that what you were gonna say? Because you and I know that isn't true. You're willing to kill me, why should he be any different?"
Jay spoke up suddenly.
"Because I didn't treat her like crap for nineteen years."
"Language boy. You always try to be the hero, to save your big sister, but did she once try to stop me from hitting you?"
Jay went silent.
"No."
"No. She lies, makes empty promises, and doesn't care about anyone but herself. Not you and not that little girlfriend of hers either."
Ebony tightened her grip on Annabelle's hand.
"Tell me he's lying."
Annabelle didn't look at her girlfriend.
"It's... partiality true. Emotions are... weird for me. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. I do care about you though."
Toast stepped up then.
"Am I the only one wondering why we aren't being attacked by killer robots?"
"Yeah," said Maxwell, "those suckers usually attack you the moment it strikes midnight."
Annabelle's father laughed.
"I locked those guys in the kitchen. Now, about my murder."
Annabelle looked her father square in the eyes and gave him a wide, cheshire grin.
"I promise it'll be quick!"
She broke free of the others and ran towards her father, she had almost reached him when
BANG!
Blood went everywhere. He didn't even have time to cry out before he died. Annabelle fell to her knees just before she reached her dad.
"See what happens when you don't listen. People get hurt."
There was high pitched laughter from the back of the group.
"You just made a huge mistake."
