Penny and Lizzy

Chapter 12: Cannibal

I just thought adding cannibal by kesha was perfect for this chapter! Enjoy!

It was a late afternoon. I was sitting on top of a hill, waiting for everyone to leave the family park. I was just thinking about life and what to do. I only had one week to live my life the fullest until I had to marry Henry. I shouldn't waste it like this. I should get out there and do something. If I keep staying at my house and being hit all the time, I wouldn't get anywhere. I was pretty boring to anyone who actually knew me. The oy friends I had were Ash and Penny. Ash wasn't much of a friend, but she was nice to me. You should always reward niceness with kindness. It was the polite thing to do, after all.

After everyone left, I waited for Penny to come up the hill. After our night together, we weren't really into each other. We just chose to be friends with each other. It was either that or forget we existed. So I obviously chose to remain friends. Just as I thought that he forgot about our little meeting, Penny came walking up the hill. He looked so tired. He must've been chasing some kids around Derry. I jumped up from the ground I sat on and walked over to him. "Penny, I'm so glad you came. I almost thought you couldn't make it." Penny pat my head and sat down with me on the hill.

"Do you really think that I would miss the opportunity to hang out with the one and only Elizabeth Blanchard? I don't think so." I laughed at his joke. "So, have you thought about what your plan is gonna be when you need to marry Henry? Are you just gonna marry that douchebag? My honest opinion is that you should run away from this town and start a new life. You could make up a new identity." I smirked at Penny. "Even if I tried to get out of this town, my dad would send all of his friends and guards to find me. He still has custody of me until I turn 18, which is in a month. It would be impossible." I laid my head in my hands. Penny had a point, but it wouldn't be good. "Not if you had help. I could shapeshift into you and do the whole thing for you."

I laughed. I could just imagine him marrying Henry. Penny in my wedding dress. That would be funny. "That could work, but there's one thing missing in this equation." Penny looked at me confused. "I can't leave you here. I would want you to come with me. I want to be with you as friends. We could explore the world together. I could take the money I have in my savings account and use it to take trips. It would be good for you and I. We can escape together." I held Penny's hand in mine. He didn't seem so happy about that plan. "Listen Elizabeth, the whole equation is ruined if I go with you. I need to stay to marry Bowers so you can escape. If I go with you, who's gonna fool everyone?" I turned my head away from him.

"You're right. But are you really willing to do this all for me? I mean, I'm just an ordinary human girl. No one cares about me. Nobody!!" Penny held my hand. "That's not true. I do." I liked the feeling of his white silk glove touching my smooth hand. I felt protected when I was around Penny. He made me feel secure and like myself. I didn't need to pretend to be someone else. He made me who I am. He was the closest thing that filled the void in my heart. He healed the wounds in my heart. He was the one I would marry instead of someone who would only sink the scars in. Henry would make the bullet hole bigger. He was only marrying for the money. Well at least his dad was. I was only his sex doll. Only a punch bag, physically and emotionally. He didn't care about me. Penny did. He was the one for me. I just couldn't accept the fact.

"Why don't you come back to my lair. We could hang out together. I also have something for you." I wondered what he had up his sleeve for me. Maybe it was another secret of his or just another talk about how he ended up in Derry, under the town's storm drains. Me and Penny got up from the hill and walked down the hill together. I held his hand for guidance as I walked down the steep hill. After walking down the hill and into a storm drain near by, we finally made it to his lair. He had me take a seat on the dirty sofa he left there. Why did he put it there? Penny walked in with a small well crafted wooden box. He sat down with it next to me. "I want you to open it." I took my right hand and opened up the box. I was shocked to find what looked like a child's brain in there. It also smelled like one.

"I know you might be disgusted by this, but it only gets worse. In order for us to communicate with each other, you need to eat this for me." I squeamed at the thought of actually eating a human brain. It just wasn't right to do that, but I forced myself to do it. If I wanted to have a good relationship with Penny, I needed to eat it. I slowly took my right hand and reached into the box. I ripped off a piece of the brain and used my left hand to pinch my nose. I put the whole piece of brain in my mouth and chewed. This was not happening. I chewed for a while, but it wasn't that bad. I couldn't believe I was doing this. I swallowed the brain and sat up. I felt like a cannibal. I officially was one. I couldn't get enough of it. I took the whole piece and ate it. I enjoyed it so much.

After eating, I sat in silence. What did Penny do to me?

I should just add cannibalism to my tags. This fanfic has a lot of it!
