Sally's Story (Romance)

Chapter Nineteen

Outside the mansion is one of puppeteer's friend. He is looking up at Sally's window with confusion in his eyes. He can't figure out why puppeteer hasn't killed her yet. He climbs up the side of the mansion into Sally's window to talk to puppeteer but once inside he finds Sally sitting on the floor now looking at him.

"Hi." She smiles at him. He waves at her.

'Is this the girl puppeteer couldn't kill?' He thinks to himself. She stands up walking up to him.

"Want to play?" She smiles. Before he can even answer she takes his hand pulling him to her dresser. She has him to sit down and when he saw her pull makeup out he starts to stand up. Sally pushes him back down and she ties him up with scarfs. Surprisingly he let's her. When she starts to take his mask off he struggles and ends up falling back in the chair hitting the ground. The thump is heard downstairs, Ben and puppeteer head up to her room.

When they get in they see Sally putting makeup on someone. "Get her to stop someone!" He calls out.

"Painter? What are you doing here?"

"I came to talk to you but ended up finding her. Things went south and now in tied to a damn chair getting makeup put on me!"

Sally looks up at them. "He looks pretty now." She smiles and giggles. Puppeteer walks over untying him from the chair.

"Oh, yeah, painter this is Sally. Sally this is Bloody Painter." Puppeteer says while untying him. Once he's free he grabs his mask pulling it back on.

"Come on Sally let's leave them alone to talk." Ben says and Sally leaves with him holding hands. They go to his room and lie on his bed. "Have I ever told you my story?" He asked.

"No." She looks at him.

"I was drowned by my mother. She was a real bitch all the time."

"Is that why you panicked when I splashed you a few years ago?" She has her head lying on his chest looking up at him.

"Yea. I still panic a little around water but I just have to remember I'm immortal and can't die." He looks down at her. She changes into her illusion form and smiles up at him. He puts a hand to her cheek kissing passionately and she kisses him back. He pulls her on top of him wrapping his arms around her waist.

She leans her forehead down on his. "I love you Sally."

"I love you too Ben." She smiles and kisses him. They lie there cuddled up when they hear Hoody and Masky call her downstairs. She looks at him before getting up and going to see what they want. On the way downstairs she changes out of her illusion form.

"Hey Sally. We figured you would want to hang out." Hoody says. Sally smiles and says sure.

"Come on let's go." They all three head outside with her leaving her knife and bear at home. Sally is smiling the whole time until they all three feel a presence in the area. It's the same presence Sally detected last night.

"They're back." Sally whispered so that only Hoody and Masky could hear. They hear giggling that sounds like a girl. They see a blur of blue and then Sally's gone. Hoody and Masky hear Sally's screaming, then a girl yelling.

"HOODY!! MASKY!!" Sally screams.

"Shut it little girl!" The girl yells at her but keeps running. The girl has Sally held tight in her arms running to the edge of the woods with Sally struggling to get down. Hoody and Masky are chasing her down trying to get Sally. When they are closing in Sally breaks from the girl leaving her on the ground before running off.

She keeps running looking for a place to hide. She's in and unfamiliar part of the woods but she doesn't care. Sally has been running for awhile and finds a hole in a tree that leads into the ground. She crawls in the hole hiding trying to catch her breath.
