Death's Double Trio

Chapter24

Sapphire’s Perspective

        “Hello?”
        “Hey Tim. It's Sapphire. I need a favor from BEN, but I don't have his number.”
        “What's the favor?” He asks in a bitter tone.
        “Oh please. It's not anything like what you're obviously thinking. Are you busy today?”
        “Not until tonight. Why?”
        “No reason. Now hand the phone to BEN please.” I hear him sigh and then a different voice comes on the phone.
        “Hello? Who is this?”
        “BEN Drowned, right? This is DJ Killer. I need two favors from you. The first is that I need you to make this conversation sound sexual. Got it?”
        “Got it sweet cheeks.” He says in a seductive voice.
        “Perfect. Now for the real favor I called for. Can you look up an address for me?”
        “Depends doll. What's in it for me?”
        “I've got your personal Nintendo 64 from before you died. It took a little searching, but I'd be willing to give it back to you in exchange for directions to this address. What do you say?”
        “Okay, you've got yourself a deal, but first I'd like to add a condition of my own princess.”
        “I know I'm probably going to regret this but, what's the condition?”
        “Scream my name.”
        “Is Masky there?”
        “Yep.”
         “Good. Put it on speaker and I'll call it even.” I hear a click on his side.
        “Alright. It's on.” I smirk when he tells me this.
        “Oh BEN!” I yell as sexually as I can. The others try to hide their laughter because the phone was on speaker on our side too. I bite my lip to keep from laughing when Tim’s voice starts yelling.
        “What in the underworld are you doing?!” He sounds embarrassed.
        “Aww, is Masky blushing BEN? I can't tell from here.”
        “Yup! And it was so worth it.” I hear the phone click again and start laughing.
        “Perfect. Your prize will be sent to you as soon as I have what I want. The address is 1275 Amelorie Lane.”
        “Any clue what state?”
        “Uh, the card says its in our town. I've just never seen that street name before.”
        “Got it. You can come by the mansion to get it.”
        “Alright! Thanks BEN! I'll be there in a few minutes with your N64.”
        “Yes! My precious is on her way!”
        “Bye BEN.”
        “See you in a bit DJ!” I end the call and the others bust out laughing.
        “How did you find his original N64?” Coleen asks after they finally calm down.
        “Simple. I went to his old house. It was stuffed up in the attic with the rest of his games.” I go change into my killing outfit and grab the N64, teleporting to the mansion. I ring the bell and an excited BEN starts jumping up and down in the doorway. I pull the game system from behind my back and hold it out to him.
        “One Nintendo 64 from the now deceased Benjamin Callomin, a.k.a BEN Drowned. As promised.” He does a little squeal and snatches it from my hands, running up the stairs.
        “Hey! I held up my half of the deal, now you hold up yours.” I tell him before he gets halfway up the stairs. He walks back down the stairs and hands me a paper.
        “This should be what you asked for.” I check it and my eyes widen. I hand the paper back.
        “Wrong page. Oops!” He puts it in his back pocket and handed me a different paper. I check it and it's the page I need. I nod and he runs to his room. I laugh a little.
        “Masky!” I yell. He walks quickly toward me from the kitchen and picks me up bridal style. He leans his head down to my ear.
        “If you ever, and I mean EVER, do that again, I swear you won't live to see tomorrow.” He whispers. He leans his head back and puts me down on my feet. I smirk and hug him with my head by his ear.
        “The next time you blush and I'm not there to see it, YOU won't live to see tomorrow.” I whisper back. As I pull back, he sees my smirk and shivers.
        “So Masky, ready to go on a trip?” He nods stiffly and follows me out to the front steps. I transport us back to the house.
        “I'm back!”
        “Hey, go ahead and change back. The mask is on your bed.” Coleen answers, wearing the blue half mask that was in the box. I nod and hand her the directions, then go change into my regular clothes and the matching blue half mask from the box. I walk out with a white masquerade mask and a black jacket in my hands. I put the jacket in Tim’s hands.
        “Try this on.” I tell him.
        “Where we're going, we don't want to be easily recognized. As our normal aliases, we'll be caught to quickly.” Coleen finishes for me.
        “Where are we going again?” He asks as he puts on the jacket. I take his mask off and put on the other one as I answer.
        “Remember how I asked BEN to do me a favor this morning? I had asked him to print out some directions to a property that we have the deed to. That's where we're going.”
        “We'll still be in town, of course. It's just that we didn't know how to get there. From the looks of this map, we'll get there by lunch if we walk.” Coleen and I chuckle a bit.
        “Good thing we're not walking.” We say together.
