I pulled the dagger of Envy quickly across Jamey’s throat and drove the dagger into her chest.

She fell to the ground and I watched as the water ran off of her body then fell to the smooth cream coloured drain. I turned to go get ready for the sin of Envy.

“Fuck you.” Jamey managed to shout.

I turned to see her engulf in flames. But she didn't.

*Cling Clang Clong*

The blade fell to the ground.

“No!” I picked up the blade and drove the blade back threw Jamey’s heat.

She didn't move.

“NO! NO! NO!” I repeatedly stabbed the dead corps with the blade. I picked up the body and thrusted it against the wall. I broke at her face. Blood spattered with every hit, From her heart, her neck, then her nose and mouth. I threw here to the ground. I kicked her multiple times until it felt like I was kicking a bag of slop. I looked down at the naked mangled body. If not her then who?

*Buzz Buzzzz*

I dug for my phone.

I had a text. ‘Hey I heard your house was burnt up. You can stay with me if you need. Its not as cool as your place tho. I always liked your place. It was small and cozy. I was maybe even a bit jellos.’

The text was from Matt.

Its him.

I texted him that I would be right there and left the for my car. Jamey’s body still lay in her bathroom, bloody, broken, and naked.

My car is still at The Silly Soup Server so I decided to borrow Jamey’s car. It was about ten minutes to drive into town and then a short while to find Matt. When I arrived it was about three am.

“Hey” Matt said opening the door.

“I need your help.” I was standing on Matt’s doorstep clutching The Pergate as if it was a top secright briefcase to destroy the word.

“What happened to you?” He asked.

I went inside and told Matt what happened. “After Dot died I met lady who told me how to save her. I had to collect these artifacts that were linked with the five stages of grief and put them in this.” I held out the box. “The Pergate. I have four of the shards in here and I just got the last one.”

“Ok then lets open thi up and go save Dot!” Matt jumped up.

“One prolume. This makes a door to I don't know where, and the door is locked.”

“So wheres the key?”

“Keys.” I corrected. “There are seven. One for every one of the seven deadly sins. Greed, Lust, Pride, Gluttony, Sloth, Wrath, and Envy”

“So let go find the keys.”

“The keys are daggers.” I drew the dagger of Envy from the sheath on my back belt loop. “This is one of the daggers.”

“So six more to go!”

“There are seven locks. I already unlocked the first six locks. Now I have to use this on the last lock.”

“Then what are the locks?”

“Hearts. Human hearts that poses the sin in question.” I knew he was going to ask who the locks where. “Greed was Mrs. Beatra, Pride was Ace, Gluttony Was Gala, Sloth Was Sharleen, Pat was Wrath, Palla was Lust, And this is the dagger of Envy”

“You killed them?!?!”

“Yes.” I told him. “I thought Jamie was the sin of Envy, but its not her.”
