Tsithma Lockheart- A Dark Ending {One death... one book... to end it all...}

Chapter 4: Re-run

By: A.R.

"Ms Rose?" Baldi muttered, looking up at Everest.

"Excuse me??" the red haired girl hissed, "It's babe to you." she said, crossing her arms.

"Or Everest." the blond muttered on her right.

"Or Everie." the black haired added on her left.

"Can-it, girls. What's your deal, Charlie?" she asked seeing he was just sitting and staring at his hands and his over sized sweater.

"Baldi???!!!" Tsithema's voice called, making Baldi stand up looking around.

"Tsithema!" he exclaimed, him running to the center of the room. He couldn't see much, the room was dark- then he remembered that time in his life. The valentines day dance. "Whoa." He whispered seeing the lights shining all around him. "This was when Everest--" Baldi gasped in realization- turning to see Everest appeared in back of him with the bowl of fruit punch.

"Say hello, nerd!" she shouted.

"Wait no-- ah!" Baldi let out a high pitched squeal as he was splashed in kool-aid. He shook as his sweater dripped all over the gym's wooden floor. "W-Why?" Baldi stuttered as everyone laughed.

"HEY!" Tsithema shouted, appearing in the gym doorway, everyone backing as they quieted down as she approached Everest.

She dropped the plastic bowl, backing up as the beast approached. Tsithema looked different. Her dress was thigh high, long black boots paired with it. White horns sticking out of the side of her head, her dark eyes peering into Everest's green eyes. She looked down at Baldi- seeing she was something like 7 ft tall compared to his child figure. "Tsithema... wow," Baldi muttered, his cheeks turning bright red, "You couldn't put something a little more appropriate?" he whispered, looking away red faced.

"What's wrong with what I'm wearing? Have you seen your outfit?" she asked, motioning towards the sweater dripping kool-aid. He blushed as she slid her finger down the side of his face, popping a fruit punch covered finger into her mouth. "Hehe, at least you taste good~" she giggled, "Now let's go, we're here for a reason." Tsithema told him as she walked across the room grabbing a cookie off of the refreshments table before walking out.

Baldi pulled the soaked sweater off, ringing it over Everest's head, "This is yours." he told her before leaving the room, leaving Everest staring in shock- her mouth gaping.

"That- bitch." she hissed as she wiped her mascara off her face with a napkin. "Come on girls. We have a new target." she growled as Jade and Mabel stepped on her sides.

Tsithema and Baldi walked down the hall, him stopping every five minutes to look at a poster- all his memories coming back to him. "Intense deja-vu! I remember this!" he exclaimed, motioning towards a huge trophy case, "That wasn't the original- I mighta sorta... knocked that one over and it shattered everything and the trophy's broke too!" Baldi giggled thinking about how pissed the principal was. "I remember everything." he said letting out the most evilest laugh he has ever made.

"Wow... you seem proud~" Tsithema muttered as Baldi walked like he owned the place.

"Says the one that looked like if she didn't leave the room she'd eat everything at the refreshments table." Baldi shot back, raising an eyebrow.

Baldi stopped suddenly, stopping Tsithema. "Ah- you have words! Use them." she growled, smacking his arm down after she ran into him.

"There." he told her, motioning towards a door ahead of them.

"Okay, step aside--" before Tsithema can kick the door down, Baldi opened the door. "Aw- why?" she asked, looking at him whining.

Baldi moved across the room quietly, searching the room trying to remember where Mr Harrison's dad put the contract after he signed it. "Aha." he whispered, finding a safe in a drawer. "Keep watch, Imma break the safe." he told Tsithema, grabbing the lamp from the desk.

"Wait wh-- No! There has to be a better way," she exclaimed, "Someone will hear the racket."

"I still have the gun." Baldi muttered, pulling the pistol out of his back pocket.

"Wait n--"

Baldi ignored her, shooting the safe's lock 5x- small gasps leaving her. Tsithema stood there staring as Baldi quickly put the gun and the rolled up contract into a nearby hand bag. "Here." he told her, placing the bag on her shoulder. "Let's go." Baldi told her as they both walked out of the room, him dropping the lamp.

"C-Charlie? What're you... doing in the principal's office??" a little girl muttered ahead of them.

"Betty? Its not what it looks like," Baldi exclaimed, holding his hands up.

The blond girl turned around, sprinting down the hall "I'm sorry!" she exclaimed as she trotted down the hall, her hands at her sides as she glided around the corner and out of sight.

"Fuck." Baldi exclaimed before grabbing Tsithema and running the opposite way, "Come on if we hide in the broom closet we can get away from--"

They both stopped in their tracks, the Rose sisters blocking their path. "What does she have that I don't?" Everest hissed, her hands on her hips.

Tsithema snapped, all the lights in the hall exploding. The girls screamed as a spark flung out onto Mabel, setting her on fire. The screeches of their sister sent Jade and Everest backing up into the wall. "Powers." Tsithema replied before levitating Jade off the ground, flinging her down the hall.

"Oh my- TSITHEMA!!!" Baldi exclaimed, "The students of my past are NOT ragdolls!!!!".

"No please.. please don't hurt me- I-I won't bully anyone again, I promise!!" Everest pleaded before running away.

Tsithema glanced over at Baldi as if to ask, "What do you think?"

"Stop her." Baldi commanded, Tsithema freezing Everest in place- a scream leaving the girl.

"No no no, please- I said I won't tell! Please!" she pleaded, tears running down her cheeks.

"No, it's okay- we won't hurt you.. as long as you do keep quiet, and do us.. a little favor." Baldi told her, blinking innocently.

"Ugh. Why would I do something for you?? Your creeps! Creeps I say!" Everest hissed unable to face him.

"Baldi she's useless- can I kill her?" Tsithema asked, sliding her claw down her mascara soaked cheek.

"No no no!!! I'm-I'm bluffing!! I'm bluffing!!! Please- I swear I'll do anything!! Anything!!!" Everest smiled, desperately giggling. "I-I mean you've proven to be quite brave~ Standing up to me~ So brave~"

Baldi stared, his cheeks turning pink, "Ah... I know~" he smiled, crossing his arms and turning away, "Glad you noticed~"

"So can you let me out?"

"No." Baldi replied his eyes half-lidded, a evil grin on his face. "If you tell, I swear I will send her after you." he said motioning towards Tsithema, "So listen carefully. I need you to do something for us~ IF you even wanna live~? Just cooperate~"

"Y-Yes! I'll do anything for you! Just don't let your she-beast hurt me! S-Spare me!!"

Tsithema looked at Baldi, him thoughtfully looking up at the hallway light in thought. As if thinking of a plan.

"Okay~ I got just the thing..."
