"Go, serpent, kill them all." I hummed, pointing towards the street packed with pedestrians. "Paint this town red." I smirked as serpent slithered off towards the town. Screams erupted from the small town as everyone ran for their lives. I licked my lips as I felt blood dripping from my hand. I lifted it to where it was right in front of my face. I couldn't see it though, my vision was, well, I was blind.
Wait, blood?
I let out a wail, it blending in with the screams around me. I did this again. How could I…? No, it wasn't really me giving the orders to that Chain. The Chain, serpent, was controlling me, everything I said was not my own word, it was serpent's. "Stop it, serpent! You can't!" I yelled, topping over all the other screams. I heard a gulp and I knew serpent was looking at me. "You manipulated me! I never wanted you, my life was fine, but you brainwashed me into making a contract with you."
"It's too late now, girly. Our contract is up." Serpent hissed. I blinked, starting to feel a sharp pain on my chest. "The Will of the Abyss will be happy with me, bringing a girl like you into the Abyss." He hissed again.
"Ahhh!" I screamed as the pain increased. I gripped my chest and fell to the ground. I heard some slithering noises come around followed by warmth. Serpent must be around me, holding me. I screamed again as my grip grew tighter. Serpent hissed. I was sinking. Sinking into the ground. How…? "Aaaaaahhh!" I wailed, reaching my hand up from out of the ground. My whole body was devoured by the emptiness. I had no idea where I was. Serpent's warmth was gone and I couldn't feel anything.
"It's a human." Someone said in a strange voice, like they were cringing. Evil laughs surround me as I grew scared. I still couldn't feel anything but it felt like there were people around me.
"Jealous, jealous, so jealous." The noises chanted. "Jealous, Cheshire's jealous of humans!" The chorus was still going strong. I gripped my head, blocking my ears to stop the noise. My body. I could feel it.
"Everyone, please be quiet. The girl will get frightened." A velvet voice rang in my head. "What's your name, girly?" She asked, bringing me to reality. I felt heavy again as I fell to the ground, landing hard. I wanted to yelp in pain, but her present kept me quiet. "My name is Alice."
