Disclaimers: I DON'T OWN SWEENEY TODD
Author's note: I got this idea from watching Beetlejuice and Corpse Bride. Enjoy
Mrs. Lovett began to cough loudly, and crawl out of the ash dark oven; she fell on the cold stone floor. She stood up and dusted her self off. "How did I get here?" Nellie thought. She walked around the bake house, there she saw Sweeney.
"Mr. T, is that you" Nellie Whispered
He turned around, he was covered in blood. But his neck showed of a dark, red, cut wound. Once Mrs. Lovett saw that wounded she gasped,
"Mr. T is that…"
"Nellie what happened to your skin!?" The barber shouted
"My skin?" Mrs. Lovett asked, she saw her skin, it was glowing red. She ran into her bathroom to see her face but she didn't see anything. She screamed, and touched her face. She ran to Sweeney,
"What happened to us?" Nellie spat
"Simple, were dead" Sweeney answered
"Were DEAD, do you know who kill us?"
"She doesn't remember" Sweeney thought, they both walked out of the bake house. They stepped into the kitchen; Toby was sitting at one of the tables, gulping Gin straight from the bottle. He was holding the same razor that used to kill the barber,
"Toby killed you, why?" Nellie asked
"Umm… it's because I killed the other people and you fell into the oven" the barber lied
"Oh"
Nellie walked to Toby and waved her hand at Toby's face. He didn't move,
"He can't see us" Mrs. Lovett said. She opens the door of the Meat pie shop, but instead of walking into the London Street she fell in a dark hole. She let out a heart reached scream and held the edge of the hole. Her body hanged on the edge, she cried
"Get me the hell up!"
Sweeney pulled her up, she crawled on the floor. She gasped, to her the air never tasted sweeter and ground never felt more comfortable. The barber stared out into the street but it looked nothing like the Fleet Street. It was a hole in the world like a great black pit and it smelled like shit. He turned his head the stairs of the barber shop was still standing. He closed the door. He helped Mrs. Lovett up,
"Who's there" Toby barked into to the dark. The closing and opening of doors frighten him.
Mrs. Lovett and Sweeney froze.
Toby walked towards the heavy sounds of breathing. Sweeney grabbed a rock (that happens to be there) and threw it at the far corner of the shop. Toby turned and wondered how a rock just happens to fly to a corner and run in to a wall.
Sweeney backed away from small boy and Nellie crawled into a different corner, traumatized from what she saw. Sweeney open the back door and jumped on the steps of the barber shop. Toby turned and closed the open door. Nellie cupped her mouth.

The barber began to walk up the steps, and floor bored. He turned to door of the shop, there a women stand. She had yellow hair,
"Lucy" he muttered
The women turned,
"Benjamin" Lucy shouted and leaked tears of joy. She too had the deep cut wound on her neck.
They both hugged and cried, finally seeing each other after 15 years. (And dead)
"What happened to your neck" Lucy asked
"I was killed" he answered
"Then how can I see you" She asked confused
"Your dead too"
"No, I'm not dead! Lucy cried, "That's not true! That's impossible!"
"Lucy you're dead like me, just look in the mirror"
She peered into the mirror, she saw nothing.
"And you too have the same wounded ad me"
"How I died, I don't remember"
Sweeney phased.
"I don't know" He lied
There was a slam. A huge book fell from the sky on to the barber chair, he walked over to the chair and picked up the book. He flipped threw it and stopped at one page
Rules of the Dead
1) The dead will not be seen by the living (DO NOT SHOW YOUR SELF TO THE LIVING AND DO NOT TURST THE LIVING)
2) Women usually remember don't remember how they are killed or their suicide
He closed the book
"Do you remember anything about your death?" the barber asked
