As the next couple of months passed. Arthur asked Ms. Tyme what happened to Mr. Cratt. as he hadn't shown up to teach the students and no one had seen him in awhile.
She told him that Cratt was starting a rebellion and she had put a stop to it. Before it could start. She told Arthur she had killed him in the most merciful way possible. Decapitating his head from his body. while eating him whole. Body and soul. She even brought Arthur his head.
Ms Tyme tho had raised supporters for her cause. She had over 30 different creatures to help her overtake arthur but she knew it wasn't enough. Because Arthur's strength was one to marvel at. She wasnt ready yet but soon would be. If she could get more people and power to join. For she had a plan. She'd stand by till the end.
Annie on the other hand. Had keened her sences growing and learning. She spent those next two months with Ms. Tyme forming a relationship with her. Annie now could use her focus to do amazing things. She had learned from her mistake ten fold. Passing her test and moving to the next. Her power had grown drastically. She also had gotten into three more tussles. Being the victor in everyone of those pursuits. As Luci was with her for each one. Her confidence was in peak shape. She was a slayer in the two world. Which she could travel through with ease.
Luci had grown too. As she passed her test in the scenerios presented to her. She connected herself into the black veins and passed everything infront of her. Doing evil scenerios where she went undercover in the world of the living. She convinced Dr. Vatts she could be in that world with no setbacks. Dr. Vatts was suprised by her cruelty and strength. He couldnt believe how long it took her. He knew she was smart but couldnt believe how dreadfully mature she was for her age. She was ready for the next test.
Annie and luci become close. They were once just lonely vicious wolves. who now added to their pact with eachother. They became partners, besties. They did everything together when they wheren't learning. They'd spent every waking moment together. Forming their sisterly bond.

(Also over those next two months. ) Mr. Vague was a tall black demon with two black and red swirling horns on his head leading down to his back with bright red eyes and sharp red claws. Who floated in the air with a shadow that seemed to have a lifelike presence of its own.
Mr. Vague was in a cellar full of metal grey bars that looked like a jail cell. where the walls were painted grey and white. They rotated in color. Two white one grey.
There were 6 people down in the cell with metal collars hooked to there necks with metal chain links connecting them together.
Mr. Vague glided up to the prisoners. As they yelled in fright cowering in the back of the cell. He stared at one of them with a focus in his eyes. The man's face shot up in the air and you ccould see a bright white and yellow light that came up from his stomach into his neck and out of his mouth. Then Mr. Vague willed it into his own mouth consuming it whole.
He then told the girls. Its all in the will of their mind. that they must want to feed there own soul. Want it more than they want death. That getting the soul to come to them was an art of perfection. That an essence will find its way to them. If they could see it coming. That it's just like picking up a pen and writing. Simple! They must feed the cravings in their mind and soul.
Luci tried it but as it got to the mans mouth it fell back in. She told him she did it before with ease. Vague told her it takes practice and patience. That when your emotions flare. Its easy but you must learn to calm it. While doing it with silent. Lucy then spent those two months perfecting this task and eventually learning to do it on the drop of a dime.
Annie did it with ease but said the knifes her tool to the trade. As eden already showed her how to do this. She just perfered her weapons. It was more personal. The way fear set in. The look in the preys eyes as she did the task of ending a its life.

Arthur took luci and annie to the world of the living. A black bolt of lightning appeared in his office and they walked through it.
They landed in the woods outside of a small town in Wisconsin. Arthur used his power to turn him and luci into living people with color.
Arthur turned himself into a tall thin bald brown man in a black and white suit with a black tie. Who had hazel eyes with black sleek shoes.
Luci had become a brown girl with long black pigtails wearing a pink dress and pink sleek slippers. She was shorter than Arthur and Annie.
Annie had her old self back with her long copper hair and her new grey color changing eyes. She was wearing blue jeans and a black top. Her nails were painted with black gooey poison.
This was Luci's first trip to our world. The three walked out the woods. It was the middle of the night. There was a full moon in the air with clouds everywhere. Under a dark night's sky.
They came out to see empty blacked out houses with a couple of homlie looking stranglers with beat up clothes wondering aimlessly around.
Luci asked "we gonna take em?"
To which arthur replied laughing menacingly," no cant you see there light isnt pure. We need people who gleam like beacons. Their the strongest! purest! They last the longest and they give you the most bang for your buck. Its in the genetics of the soul for it shows how pure they truly are."
He then pointed off in the distance to a dark blue house. Thats lit up with light. a pure soul light that shined through the windows and ceiling. All the way to the sky. As there's 5 glowing beacons coming from it.
He said to the girls.," that's what we want."
Luci replied happily as she skipped around arthur humming,' we gonna eat em?"
Arthur laughed at her. Then he replied with gumption," some yes my dear! Other go into the trance. Then we take them home to feed the school. Gotta keep it lit!"
Annie looked up at arthur. As she was holding his hand. She spoke with a touch of anger," i thought the others were suppose to bring them back for us?"
Arthur stirred around shaking his head. Then he replied with an assholeishness," they forget who got them where they needed to be. We cant help that. they don't know there loyalty. Their wickedly evil and that brings inconsistency. That's why if i see them. ill banish their lifeless essence into eden. They dont deserve to call themselves monsters of the underworld. They're a sham and thats a shame. Fuck em! I hope you two dont turn into that."
Annie spoke with her other fist in the air. With an anger in her now swirling red and white eyes. As the outside blackness pulsed forward," not us right luce! We'd never!."
Luci nodded in agreement. Holding her little fists in the air.
The three walked to the blue house. Arthur used his mind to break the lock and open the door.
They krept through the house all going different ways. He told them to each take one person's soul and consume it. Eat em if they want. he'd then put the others into a trance and have them wait in the woods.
Arthur liked his victims full of fear and agony. Screaming for their lives. As he could mute the house so there screams wouldnt escape waking anyone else. Thats when he would eat them. At their most frightening state. Thats when they tasted there best. Most savory!
The three did there terror in their own treacherous ways. Annie used the knife. Stabbing them to death. Consuming their souls. While her clothes became bloody dripping everywhere. Luci made them bleed from there mouths and eyes consuming their soul. As she ate apart of them and arthur overtook their bodies. filling them with pain as they'd scream in terror. Then he'd consume their essence.
After they did that. they hit several more houses. Taking a ton of people from the town. Under their grasp. They rounded up 50 people killing an extra 10 a piece. then they went home. To spread there joy.
After all of it was done. Luci had grown to look older. She had gotten taller her veins got darker. Her eyes grew a grey middle to the black eyes that she once had. She had full sharp wretched claws. Her power was now ten fold stronger. Her teeth became pitch black circulating death traps. That could shred people until there was nothing left but bone.
Annie had glowed a black beacon of an abyss that had gotten darker as her hair was the night sky shimmering a blackness to it. Her skin looked as pale as Arthur's. She had grown four sharp fangs and her power to increased as her sences sharpened and her mind was gone completely to the dark side more than it already was.

Ms. Tyme with her rebellion had now moved there headquarters.as they had grown in numbers and it couldnt be contained in a shed.
She struck a bolt of grey lightning and they'd go one by one to a secret location by a black river of gooey mold in a large grey building miles from the school.
She told each of her companions that she'd persuade annie and Vatts for they had the strength to take Arthur out. That she was cultivating Annie to be second. Her general of dread to fill this place full of blood for her power could match that of the most evill of creatures from the underworld.
They all had watched annie. Seen her power and agreed that she was prime. Even being from the living. She was something to behold.
Her rebellion was gaining fame. She had found the location of Arthur's priceless souls. She needed vatt's E-Ville, a bigger army and control of the majority of the school's teachers.
Saying that eden would understand her promise to compell a darker future for them all. As the underworld was losing the war to the living and eachother. That she'd change all their minds and take control of the living world and this world. As it needed a new leader.
The rest of the rebellion was starting to agree with her as the numbers were growing each day and the force was reaching new heights of motivation and power. .
15b
Annie was playing with Luci in a grey field of nothing on the far side of the school. Right across from Arthur's house.
Annie was shooting whitish red and black balls of swirling lights at Luci. She was dodging them laughing around having a hell of a time dancing around. As she shot her own balls of darkness that sparked grey back at her. While other ones were grey in the middle with a black outline shooting black and grey sparks from it.
Ms. Tyme walked up to Annie asking her if she'd like to talk. Annie said sure why not. As she liked Ms. Tyme.
Ms. Tyme spoke to her in a nice pleasantly cruel verse," how are you liking it here girl?"
Annie looked at her pleasantly. While speaking. In the same pleasantness," i love it. I never thought I'd find a place that could please my craving and show me people i could call family! Its evil the way its intended. In purity of itself!"
Ms. Tyme replied with her wickedly strong voice," good that's what i desire to hear. We're glad to have you too. You're gonna change the way people percieve evil. You're gonna change this world and the next. Into an abyss of darkness. You'll consume it all. Eden will be pleased! But how are you and Arthur doing? is he treating you in the finest of hell's shell of darkness!"
Annie smiled gleaming her fangs. As she spoke with a loving cruelty of joy," he's the cruelest! He let me use his whip! He gave me a machete that sparks darkness. I keep it hidden. He said its special. It was one of Eden's first creations of wickedness. It was handed to him by Eden herself! I dont know what I'd do without him. He's become a father to me. Even in punishment. He shows his spirit for me. He's treated me like his own."
Ms. Tyme smiled her rotted teeth. She spoke with her pale hand held out on annies shoulder with a cruelty of despair," that's perfectly rotten! my girl!. Im sure you'll do fine with him. I just think maybe he's using your power to his advantage. Maybe you are a daughter to him or maybe he's pleasing eden. Who knows! But be weary my darling! You dont know his true intentions do you?"
Annie's face sunk. What was once a smile became a frown. She spoke with sadness in her," i guess i dont know. But i would think i hold a place in his dark heart. A deathly demand of cruelty! He's been better to me than anyone ever has but if you say so you'd know!"
Ms. Tyme grew an unusually unatural smile that literally went ear to ear showing her rotten teeth with her glowing eyes pulsing black," im sorry dear but you dont know who someone truly is. Look where you are girl. The underworld. Its a place that truly isnt what it seems. I got you tho! I always will. I just wsnt you to know that! Youll always be taken care of!"
Luci listened to the whole thing. It angered her with every step of the conversation. As she could read minds.
She waited for Ms. Tyme to leave. Then she walked up to annie.
Luci was furious. Her eyes lit up a grey and black pulsing light. Her veins glowed gray and black, she screamed in a cruel mighty wickedness," You know she's using you. She wants father arty gone! And she knows the power in you. She wants you to do it. You know i read mind's. He loves us dearly. I sence it! I feel it! I know it! Deep in my heart! She's forming a rebellion with you as her cause. What do we do!?"
Annie's cheeks grew red. Her eyebrows raised. Her heart felt darkness of a new regime. Her fists clenched.
She spoke with a dark fire of anger of her own," are you sure Luce! One hundred percent positive."
Luci in the same manner of madness replied," i read minds! I fuckin know. Shes gonna get the Dr and you. Then she's gonna kill me. I read it on her. When you're all done. She's gonna take your knife. Then take your soul! Im positive. She wants us all. What do we do!? He loves us! All he thinks about is protecting us. We're the children he wished he had! "
Annie with her still clenched fist. As she was still in madness replied with vengence," we tell art. Then we wait. You find out more! then we consume them all. Every fucking one of them. She taught me patience! that will be her downfall! Luce!. I will be the hand of vengence. We'll make her believe we're on her side! Then crush her ourselves if we have to. I wont let anything happen to you!"
The two walked away with intent to tell Art this sinister vengeful plan by Ms. Tyme.

Ms. Tyme found Dr. Vatts in his office. It was a small white walled room. With a grey tile floor and black ceiling.
Dr. Vatts was sitting on his grey cushy chair. behind his black metal desk with black wooden cabnets all over the walls.
In his pleasant voice he asked her how shes doing and what she wanted. She replied with her own grueling happiness," well Dr. Vatts i would like some of your E-Ville. me and the other teachers want to go on a spree of the living and we'd like to try out your new and improved stuff."
He looked her up and down. Then he replied with concern as he looked back down at his papers," why! Arthur has gotten all the bodies to keep this place going. You can just go up there and do your buisness!"
Ms. Tyme had gotten a look of her own hiding the frustration but showing her can do caring side. As she spoke in a loving cruelty," Vatts come on now. I want to try it. I want to experience the power it holds. I want to go on a massacre. Let me feed myself. Its been awhile since i rampaged !"
He thought for a minute. He looked up from his white and grey papers that were scattered all over his desk. he put his black pen down. then he replied with a down to earth satisfaction," cant do it! Arthur put me under strict guidlines. I cant give it out without his concent!"
She looked at him with angry eyes. Her face squints inward. as she clenched her fists into balls of fury but she replied with a calmness," do you do everything that man tells you. I just want a taste of that sweet nector. See it's potential for myself but you're loyal to a fault. arent you? You'd never betray his trust would you?"
Dr. Vatts smiled showing his sharp pearly rows of teeth. His eyes flared black and his hands went under the desk. He spoke with a confident wickedness," Arthur's a brother to me! We've been together since we were mere children. We grew as one. Why do you think im here! In this place. Because of him. Ive given him my life! He's given me his! Ill never break that life-long bond! Sorry Tyme. Its no can do!"
She slammed her fists on the desk. Her cheeks got a bright black. Her madness sets in as she spoke angerly," motherfucker where is it! Just tell me that. Im sick of your shit vatty boy! All i want is for you to help a bitch out. Ok you soul sucking fuck! Tell me now!"
Tyme heard a noise from under the desk. Vatts had shot himself up with E-ville but she took her hand in that moment turning it into a razor sharp claw that stiffened itself for one fatal devistating swooping motion that decapitates his head clear and clean off his body.
She rummaged through his desk taking all his keys and papers. She then tore the room apart and broke into his cabnets. She found two viles of E-ville and nothing else. She left unsatisfied but with hope. as maybe the keys or papers would lead her to the treasure she desired.

Annie and Luci found arthur in his office. He smiled at them from behind his desk.
He looked up at them with a dark gleam of happiness. He asked them in a warm tone of satisfaction," how can i help my dark hearts today!"
Annie replied in a fast low to the ground hellishly calm questioning manner," do you trust us? Do you see us as yours? Do you love us? I know this isnt the place but i still have a lil bit of humanity left in me. Where i havent had a real family. A family of wicked evil! On earth i felt emotions but since i lost my soul. Its been gone. I havent felt anything till i met eden and you. Luci too!"
Arthur got a look of concern on his face. As he extended his arms on his desk. He answered her in a dark soft voice as he hadn't used it. in what seemed like an eternity," of course! I told you i dont have actual children. I care for all my students. Even when i call them cruel and despising. for thats our words for love down here but you two hold a special place in my black heart. I feel a breath in there that only you two can fill! You know that void. We dont say it down here for its a weakness but i consider you two my actual daughters. The abyss i grew up in had no compromise for warth. You two tho give me that weakness. Why do you ask darlings!"
This time Luci glared up with her sweet eyes and dark stare. She replied with a sad but honest tone of harshness," well we consider you the same. A father but Ms. Tymes said you're using us. I read minds. And hers told me something. I know you wont want to hear or accept what we're about to say but she's leading a rebellion against you and you should know she's gonna try and take over."
Arthur looked at luci. Then at annie with more concern. He stomped his fists on the desk. He became angry. His veins popped out black. His cheeks sunk in becoming black.
He spoke with an anger in his voice," are you sure girls? 100 percent sure. You're making an accusation that cant be undone. Now tell me. I trust the both of you!."
Luci got a worriesome look on her face as her voice went shrill. she replied," yes we are! She's gonna kill me! Turn annie. Then kill her and consume your soul. She'll take over the school. She said it needs a change. You cant accomplish. In your age! you're weak! I read it in her mind.! Me and annie are gonna take care of it father!"
Arthur's eyes swirled faster and faster. His face now even more angry as it flared to fruition. He spoke with an abyss of madness," ill take care of this myself. Dont concern yourself with it. Your learning and must continue to do so. Ill take care of her and her rebellion myself! My children! If i dont come back. Just know you have my dark heart in your hand!?"
Annie spoke up with her own anger as her face grew black," patience father. We'll do it together. One step at a time. You go in anger you die. You're not doing this alone. We're a team we're a family. You said it. Your weakness is our strength. We'll use it to our advantage!"
They talked for several minutes formulating and continplating their plan. They left with big smiles. Ready for whatever was to come there way. on there jouney to rid the underworld of this new evil called Tyme.
