MONSTERS WITHIN

Chapter 17

The sun broke onto peter's eyes, he slowly woked up and saw tren huddled up cuddling him, and holding his arm tight, peter smiled and he slowly laid tren's sleeping head on a old couch pillow, the night before he and ember built a couch fort, enough for the three of them, including Mandy, to sleep in. Peter walked out from the alleyway, and saw a few restaurants near by, "breakfast? ...with tren? ...good idea!" He thought to himself, he slowly woked tren up, "....heh....heya petey...." Tren said softly, he rubbed his eyes and then kissed peter's cheek, "heh...you want breakfast? There's a Dennys near by...if you want..." Tren stretched his limbs out, but nodded in agreement, "what about ember?" Tren and peter looked at ember, who was sleeping soundly, she wored her hoodie over her head, and Mandy was sleeping by her side in a little ball. "..heh...they'll be okay..." Peter said with a smile, he helped tren upwards and they both snuck out and headed to the Denny's,

Johnna's head was spinning, she slowly got up and looked around the room, "..w-where...am i?" She said to herself. Immediately she felt the urge to vomit, she ran to the bathroom and slammed the door, enough to get fredrick awake, "I'M UP!!! Oh shit..johnna!!" He ran to the bathroom and opened the door, seeing her on her knees over the toilet, "fuck me...are you okay?" Fredrick asked holding her hand, "..m-maybe? ...I just....just a hungover, that's all...." She immediately remembered the night before, and turned red, "...heh..what's wrong?-" johnna lifted her fist up and socked fredrick in the mouth, "OW!!!" Fredrick yelped, "the hell was that for?!" He rubbed his face in pain, "that's for perswaying me to get wasted!!" She then kissed fredrick on the lips, "..that's...because I felt bad about punching you and because i love you..." She said holding freddy's face, "...heh.....thanks knockout...I love you too...you just hopped on me and kissed me and...y'know....oh god how's Pete gonna react to this?" Fredrick said blushing a bit, "..heh... it'll take a while but i'm sure he'll learn to grow with you..." She said smiling, fredrick smiled back, "..alright...let's get outta here...we gotta a kid to find..." Fredrick said helping johnna up, "yeah...let's hope he's okay..." They both got dressed and headed out to Betty, they got in and drove off.

Tren took one bite out of his eggs, and immediately loved it, "holy f-fuck...this is delicious!!" He said eating more eggs and ham, "heheh...glad you love it trenny....what do you wanna do?" Peter said poking at his hashbrowns, "what do you mean? ...after this? ... probably walk around..sight seeing-" "I want to go home..." Peter said sadly, "....what? ..why? What happened to me and you?" Tren said immediately distraught, "I mean..my aunt she......I miss her...and i want to go home...I'm sorry-" tren raised his hand up, "n-no...no that's quite enough... y'know what? ...find..go home then!! I don't need you or ember!!!" When tren said that broke Peter's heart, immediately tren hesitated saying those words, "p-peter! I-i'm sorry!" Peter got up, with his head down and walked out, without saying a word, leaving tren in the diner. "..i'm....I'm.....I'm sorry...." Tren ran out the diner crying, he ran and ran until he came across an alleyway between an old rundown building, he stopped in his tracks. And broke down crying, he sobbed and sobbed in the alleys, until his sobs was cut short, once he heard that same horrible, twisted, laughter. He quickly turned around in fear, but was met with a sharp clawed hand over his mouth, he tried screaming for help, but no one heard him. "..shhhhh....it'll be okay.....soon? ....you and all of your friends are dead...heheh..." Tren got knocked out because of the musty smell of charlie's scent, Charlie smiled and carried tren in his arms, he broke through the old abandoned building window, and immediately tied tren up with some old rope he found. A few minutes later, tren woked up, and was frightened seeing charlie just hunched down in the corner watching him, and he was scared, really scared, he watched as charlie ate the meat off of a rat's bones, Charlie crawled over to tren and grinned with blood and guts in his teeth. "...heheh...want some?" He held the dead rat near tren's nose, and the stench was unbearable, tren gagged and vomited in his mouth. "...f-fuck off...."  Charlie frowned a bit, then tipped tren over onto his side, then held the back of his head, "...heh... perfect age? ...yes...perfect taste? ...heh..let's find out shall we?" Charlie did the most disgusting thing they never thought he would do, he licked tren's face, slowly, with his long black tounge, tren shivered and pulled his head away. "hehehe!!! yep!!! HAHAHAHAAH!!!-uuughh!!" Charlie fell down to his knees and grasped his stomach in pain, tren looked back and was confused, "..a-are you okay?" tren asked, "..f-f-funny thing...heh...THIS ISN'T MY REAL FORM...." Charlie said sinisterly, he then roared in pain, he stood upwards and his antlers grew longer, his eyes glowed brighter, and a huge mouth ripped out from his stomach, and roared with him, tren cried in fear, looking at this tall, horrifying, creature,

"THIS IS EVIDENCE OF WHY GOD WILL NEVER COME BACK..." Charlie said in a demonic voice, he and his new stomach mouth started laughing, maniacally, making tren cry more, hoping that peter would at some point change his mind, and save him.
