Mary's POV:
"So who do you wanna get first?" I ask, picking at my nail beds. I guess it doesn't really matter who it is, just that we get the job done.
"I dunno. Maybe we should start with someone close to us, so they'll trust us as we lure them in," Tex responds. This statement was really a given, I'm not gonna go out and kill a random person. Who does he think I am..? All of this stress is rushing to my head and now I'm trying not to freak out. I thought I settled all this at the funeral.
The funeral...
"Tex, where is Michael's body?!?"
"Uhm," he stutters, looking down at his feet.
"Tex..." I raise my voice a little.
"I'm pretty sure it's still in the theatre, I never threw him into the audience...
Maybe Teddy put him back in the casket," Tex says idly. How is he not as horrified by this as I am?
"And what about your little gang buddies hm? Where are they?" I'm shouting now but I honestly don't care.
"They left. Well, actually, I left. The gang. I'm not a thug anymore, sadly. So I think they're all gone..."
"Wait a second... Tex! I just hatched me an idea!!" I squeal. My fabulous mind never ceases to amaze me. "If they're all still here, we can kill them to make the clones!" I clap my hands together in excitement.
"Payback at its finest," Tex says, and I guess that means he's agreeing with my plan.
"Let's go check," I say. "Also, got any carbon monoxide?" I smile evilly.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thankfully, everyone is still gathered in the theatre. Julia is there too, lifting Michael's body into the casket as she cries. One less problem, I guess.
Tex and I rig the vents with tanks of carbon monoxide and then crank the air on. As the poisonous gas flows into the room, I panic as I remember Michael's body.
In one burst of energy I fly into the room, grab a hold of him, and fly straight back out, safely. Although we escaped the room, everyone's noticed us, and they're becoming suspicious.
Eventually someone starts coughing and then the room explodes into widespread screaming, yelling, and sobbing.
Tex and I go watch some Spongebob to pass the time.
When we return, everyone is ready to become my clone. I walk to the center of the stage and kneel.
"You might want to wait outside," I tell Tex. He leaves and I continue my ritual.
I summon the beams of light which broke from my soul earlier, with the squirrel.
Moments later, the room is engulfed with swirling light, and all the bodies are stirring.
Just as before, a sonic boom echoes, me as the epicenter, and then all the light is gone.
I look out, seeing if my work is yet done, praying that it is.
Everyone who was once dead begins to lift their head, looking up at me.
And then, all in unison, my identical minions stand, gathering in straight rows, like an army.
I grin.
"Welcome," I say, "my sisters..."
