Jack's POV

I've been quite bored lately. I've done a lot of killing, but it hasn't satisfied me enough. It seems like no matter what I do, there's still something missing.

Maybe it's my methods? Maybe I'll need to change it up a bit? Have a few variations?

I sighed, as I took out the lollipop I had in my mouth, and instead placed it in the half dead girl's mouth. She was hanging on the wall from her guts, litterly, and I was waiting for her parents to hear her sobs and muffled moans of pain.

"You were easy" I spoke, not really expecting her to listen to what I was saying. "So..weak".

Maybe that was my problem? I mostly went after children, which were easy to kill. Maybe what I needed was a challenge?

We'll see. I needed to figure this shit out sooner or later. Right now I could hear someone walking up the stairs.

Killing time!

Celestia's POV

I walked through an empty carneval, and everything seemed cold and lifeless. The shadows were following me and I couldn't find a way out.

The creepiest part? A faint melody could be heard from somewhere unknown, an out of pitch Pop goes the weasel. I hated that song with every nerve in my body, but still found myself singing along.

"All around the cobbler's bench, the monkey chased the weasel.." I mumbled, looking for the exit of this carneval. I saw blood everywhere, but didn't want to know where it came from so I kept walking, singing the anoying song.

"The monkey thought it was so much fun-"

Suddenly a tall, lanky figure stood in front of me. White eyes, pointy nose, long arms, and a grin that showed a row of pointy teeth.

"Pop goes the weasel!" he finished, before he cackled loudly. Then he looked around, and suddenly we were surrounded with dead bodies. Children's bodies. They were all mutilated and gory, and I felt like throwing up.

But instead, I woke up.

I shot up in my bed, sweat dripping from my forehead and breathing heavily.

"Cel? Are you okay?" Diana asked worriedly as she rushed into my room. "I heard you scream.."

I waved my hand and shook my head. "Just a nightmare" I panted. Diana frowned slightly, pushing some hair out of my face.

"Must've been bad. Want to talk about it?" she asked. I smiled thankfully, but thanked her no.

"Nah, it's okay baby. Go back to sleep, it was just a nightmare" I repeated. She kissed my cheek, before she went back to her room, and left me alone to think.

Damn. That was one hell of a nightmare.

Jack's POV

I happened to find my way to a dream tonight. It was a young woman, maybe around 20 years old. Skinny, but not too skinny, blue hair and blue eyes.

It was always fun to mess with people's heads, but this one in particular was kind of special. She wasn't a parent, nor was she a child, so how I ended up with her I have no clue.

I didn't get to really scare her before she woke up. Maybe I should pay her another visit...in person?

Celestia's POV

I didn't get too much sleep the rest of the night, so I decided to get up at 7am. I took a quick shower, got dressed in some baggy sweatpants and a white T-shirt with a neon cat on, and put my hair up in a ponytail.

Being such a wonderful friend, I put on some music and turned the volume up to maximum, waiting for Diana to stomp in and grumpily throw a pillow at me.

Like usual.

"WHY did they let you out of hell?!" she yelled over the music, while I laughed my ass off. She pouted, crossing her arms in front of her chest.

"Because Satan felt like you needed a demon to torture you through your life" I said, grinning. I threw her pillow back at her, and turned off the music.

"Anyways, now that you're awake we can watch Doctor Who together!" I squeeled and stood up, getting the PC.

We spent a few hours in front of the PC, watching 4 episodes of Doctor Who on Netflix.

Ah, those kind of days..

We eventually had to get up though, to go and buy some food. We always waited till the fridge was completely empty before we bought more, which sometimes came back to bite us in the ass.

I put on some eyeliner, mascara and foundation, and threw on a pair of ripped skinny jeans and a baggy black sweater, plus a black beanie.

"READY DEMON?" Diana asked from her room.

"ONE MINUTE"

I slipped on my combat boots and then we walked out, deciding to walk for a change. The groceries weren't too far away anyways.

"For some reason, I'm beginning to think it was a bad idea to walk" Diana mumbled, and looked around. There were almost no people there, and even if it was in the middle of the day it seemed so..dark. The tall buildings threw shadows everywhere and blocked out the sun.

"Yeah..." I mumbled, before the street lights flickered and we were actually freaked out.
