Chapter Twenty Six

The inside of the police station was painted a bright blue and fold up chairs were all around where waiting criminals would sit. There was a few officers guarding the premises to make sure nothing bad happened. On one wall, there was a huge window that looked up to the city of Buffalo. Buffalo was an up and coming city with a lot of older buildings being renovated. Sure, it was a lot different than New York City but I liked the homey feeling I got when I was here. Unfortunately, I couldn't even enjoy being in a different city because now, I had bigger problems

"So, what's the deal?" I asked "Why do you want Mike dead? Who are you? Where did you come from?"

"I'll start from the beginning" said Penny "I was originally just a regular human being on this earth. I had a normal family, normal life, and I was given the orphanage from my parents when I was around thirty years old. After I inherited the orphanage, Olga appeared to me one night in a dream and asked me if I could be a devil on earth. I said no at first but then she told me that when I die, I would get a huge chunk of hell that I could rule over myself. So that sealed the deal for me and I was a devil ever since"

"So then, why did you continue to be a great orphanage leader?"

"Because Olga told me to be a nice human on earth and my evil mission would come. And the evil mission was to make sure that Mike dies and you get sent to hell. Honestly, I love this mission!" Penny was starting to laugh so much that her face turned red and she almost fell off her seat "You and Mike went at each other like cats and dogs! Fighting, crying, the whole thing! And you were under so much stress and anxiety throughout this whole mission that you ended up having a nervous breakdown!"

I continued to get angrier and my hatred for Penny grew deeper and deeper. I actually hated her just as much as I hate Olga. There were always mean people in my life like Hanna and Tracey or some previous classmates that ticked me off. However, I never actually hated anyone. Now it turns out I hate Olga and Penny. As I should

Penny was still laughing an evil laugh when she went on saying "And I loved the part of the mission when Mike got hit in the head with a golf ball and he didn't believe anything you told him. Oh, that was classic. It was all so funny to watch. I mean sure, the part of the mission when the two of you fell in love and were on that stupid horse ride carriage made me gag but that love you have for Mike will make you even more upset when he dies and I will be laughing hysterically"

"How could you think that seeing innocent people suffer is funny?" I yelled

"Because I love to see people suffer. And you will suffer when you are burned in hell" laughed Penny "Ah, I could picture it, you will be tied onto a hot black rock that is hotter than the sun. You'll be all tied up and there will be a little string holding the rock with you tied on it over a fire pit and for the rest of your eternal life, you will be suffering with great pain!"

Oh so that is what hell is like. I was picturing being beaten up by a bunch of demons and being in an abandoned prison cell with a view of a volcano outside my window. Penny's description was a lot worse and I can't go to hell. Not only did I need to defeat Olga, I also needed to defeat Penny

"So ladies, I have news for you" said a police woman who was holding a binder in her hands. She had to be around forty years old. She had freckles all over her face with her dirty blonde hair being tied in a neat bun. I looked at the name labeled on her uniform ad it was Wendy "I went over the medical records taken from Sarah Hatcherson at the check up tonight and the witness reports from both sides"

So tonight, I did get checked up by a professional doctor and a phycologist to see if I was mentally ill or not. They ran a bunch of machine tests on me and asked me a bunch of questions. I was anxious to hear the results
