The opposite of silence [EDITING]

Ch 29: long black...

Eli POV
"Please remind me why i never leave the house?" Franki taps her foot at Blurri and I
"This was all her idea" I point to the blonde beside me, "I said we should wait for you to come home"
Blurri's jaw drops, "you never said anything like that!" She argues back
I nod, "I did too, you wanted to show the new girl around. And who am I to stop you from doing what you want" I fold my arms

"I don't really care who's idea it was, you should've both known better and contacted me straight away!" Franki slams her hands on the table, "now we've got a rogue shadow being on the loose and no idea where to find her" she spits, "If I find out you fucked her, I'll do exactly what you done to her"
I swallow hard "good thing I didn't, huh" I shrug slightly, Franki growls whipping her hands off the table.
"As punishment you'll both have to go into the labyrinth to find her" Franki turns around, her hair pushes our chairs towards the spooky door hidden in the corner of the house.
"H-how do you know she went in there?" I stutter, feeling a cold breeze coming from the dark corner.
"I don't, but I can use you to find out" Franki walks away, most likely searching the rest of the house.

"Well..." I start "ladies first" I use my foot to push blurri's chair closer to the dark abyss.
"Nah, fuck you" she stands up pretty quickly. "You go in first"
"No way! You've had training for this shit" I stand up too, pointing to the door.
"Not for Frankis grave yard! I cant even imagine what she's put in there" Blurri fights back, straying away from the door. "You're closer to her, why can't you go in?"
"Yeah, well she obviously feels the same for both of us. And I have a dick so I believe you have to go first" I place my hands on my hips,
"I can be the best dick for her" Blurri sticks her tongue out and starts to shrink and turn black. Not the skin colour, the actual shade. Her shape starts to change too
"You can't get out that easy" I pick her up, "You May be a big black dildo, but you're not winning now" I open the door and throw her in, the darkness consumes her. A few damp slaps could be heard as she lands on the cold concrete,
"Eli get me out of here!" She shouts, "oh god" she squeaks "Eli!".
"Just follow the light!" I call into the darkness,
"No I'm serious, somethings got me!!" She shouts out, she sounds a lot further in now.
I slap my hand to my face "one job Eli" I face palm and pull myself to enter the cold maze.

"Blurri!" I cup my hands around my mouth to make the sound go further, it feels like I've been walking and bumping into walls for hours. "This isn't funny anymore!" A shiver causes me to stop in my tracks. "Blurri I think I might need saving soon too" I cower, pushing my self to keep walking. It feels like it's getting darker, I didn't think it was possible, but apparently in the depths of purgatory, it is.
A hand reaches for me, I back up and hit my back against a wall, "Blurri!" Panic starts to rise in my voice "I just need to find my friend" I say to the hand,
"There's no friends here" a few voices spoke at the same time. Well fuck...

Franki POV

"So the guy, he isn't in charge?" The shadow asks from the other side of the table.
"No, did he tell you that?" I shoot back with another question,
"Yeah, said that the blonde chick was a guy. They both tried to kill me" she nods, changing into her human form. "What?" She looks at her hands,
"Listen kid, this is the place souls come after they die. You can't hide from me. As much as you'd like to leave, you'll have to go through me" I sit back and grab a cigarette out of my cleavage.
"Like heaven but a devil rules the place?" She sits back and folds her arms.
I pinch the bridge of my nose and exhale slowly, "more of a small town that homes a lot of lost souls"
"So how did this place manifest?" She looks around, "and how many people live here? There's a whole lot of doors"
"I made this place for the boy, he needed a safe home. As for the others, he was reckless and couldn't stop himself" another small sigh escaped my lips.
"Right, so this is basically his play house?"

"You may ask more questions when you tell me about yourself. Raven." My voice lowers as i speak her name, her eyes widen,
"How did you know my name?" She asks, the surprised expression still plastered on her face.
"I said more questions after you tell me who you are" I take the last drag of the smoke and put it in the ash tray.
"Well you seem to know quite a lot" she leans forward "so, tell me about myself" she says as if she demands it. I raise a non existent eyebrow,
"If that's the way you want to play" I stand up and walk around to the ever so smart shadow, I lean down to her shoulder "games are my specialty" I whisper in her ear, then grab one of her arms, throwing her up in the air, she almost hit the ceiling, I use my hair to catch her and slam her into the table, she coughs up blood as she collides into the wood. I lift her again with my hair, her blanket falling off her as I pin her against a wall.
"Raven Mabee. The threat to all dimensions, Hell included." I whisper, walking closer to the trapped and naked female.
"Glad you've heard of me" she winces a little, I tighten the grip on her wrists.
"You won't get away with your mischief here honey, you won't make it out alive. Not when I've got my weapon" I lean in to her neck and lick her collar bone.
"So what? You have inanimate hair. So special" sarcasm drips from her words, a smirk plays on my lips,
"Oh honey no" I bite into her shoulder, causing blood to rise, raven doesn't make any noise, just flinches slightly. "You'll find out soon enough" I drop her to the floor and go back to my seat, Flinging her blanket over to her.

Eli bursts through the labyrinth door holding a giant black dildo. Blurri.
"I have saved the day!" He holds the sex toy high.
"And that you have my dear. Please, I'd like you both to meet raven" I motion towards the recovering female on the floor,
"Shes bleeding!" Eli drops the sex toy and rushes over to raven, "I'm so sorry, she has a pretty bad temper" he rips the bottom of his shirt and puts the fabric on the new wound.
"Yeah" raven mutters, glaring at me. My smirk arising again.
"Did you take her clothes off too?!" Eli exclaims, taking his shirt off and putting it over her shoulders,
"I Uh..." raven goes bright red, "I actually don't wear clothes" she pulls the shirt around her, looking Eli in the eyes

Right into the trap.
