All right, just to let you know, I'm gonna stop having Japanese all over the place. This is officially English now, but yeah...
JUST PRETEND XD
Oh by the way, Azelia was actually my original spelling of Azalea. It isn't really considered a mistake, her mother wanted it to be original.
Suuuuuuuuuuuuure.
-The Rohde Household-
"Azelia, are you paying attention?" The voice of Mr Banks snapping the young girl out of her attention, she shot up and glanced around.
"What did I just go through, Miss Rohde?" He sighed.
"U-u-um..."
"TWENTY-FOUR!" A child shouted, making all but those two burst into laughter.
"Azelia. We were talking about multiplication."
She nodded, when in reality she had no idea what he was talking about. Violet had talked to her for some time about it, but just because she yelped the answers didn't mean she understood.
"What's two times four?"
She froze. "P-pardon?"
"Two times four, what we've been studying."
"Four four?" She squeaked, earning a laugh from the loud child.
"No, Azelia. Add them together."
"Isn't that addition?"
"Sort of. It's just easier."
"Why can't we just stick to addition and subtraction?"
"Because, multiplication is just a fundamental tool in our lives."
"Is there anything else you have to waste our seven hours with?"
"Excuse me, I didn't hear that."
"I-is there anything else you have to face our seven hours with?"
"Yes. Sit down now."
"Yes sir..." She sighed.
"Violet! Violet!" Azelia shouted throughout the building, finding no sign of her or anyone else.
She started up the stairs, repeating her sister's name over and over until she heard murmuring.
She rushed over to the door and pressed her ear against it.
"...Really work?"
"Yes, I'm telling you, Violet." Gasping, Azelia reached for the doorknob and flung it open. "What are you doing with m-"
Nine people, including her sister, were all in a circle, one of them holding a paper doll proxy.
"Z-Zel!"
"Yes, Vi-Vi?"
"What are you doing? I'm in the middle of something."
"We have to go home, it's four already! We're supposed to be at home by four-thirty." She crossed her arms.
"Go without me, I'm busy, I'll catch up."
"What are you doing?"
Curiosity killed the cat.
"It's a friendship ritual called Sachiko Ever After."
She wanted to know, and asked, "What's that?"
"Can I join?" Her eyes glinted with excitement.
They told her the name of the game and why.
"Sure."
Little did she know, they all would die.
"Yay!"
That's Sachiko's plan at least,
"All right, grab a piece of the proxy doll."
To chop them up into a mighty feast.
"Done!"
But maybe the friends will change her mind.
"Now you have to say 'Sachiko, we beg of you' ten times in your head."
Knowing that their lives are on the line.
"I can do this, Violet."
And maybe not.
"SASS!" Gabbi shouted.
Everyone shushed her.
"Sachiko, we beg of you. Ten times. Got it? And don't let go of the paper." Emma firmly spoke, glancing between all of them as she did so.
"Yes, Emma." Everyone spoke flatly, except for Yasashi and Azelia.
"Go."
Gabbi looked fairly relaxed, almost as if she knew it wasn't going to happen, while Lina was extremely concentrated, mouthing the words repeatedly. Yasashi was terrified, while Emma was confident. Azelia was happy, while Violet was focusing. Sebastian (WHOOPS, have I introduced this character? This is my little cousin. ^^) was determined as well, but not taking it as seriously as Emma, Violet, and Lina. Casidy had to go to the bathroom. Snow was doing what Lina was doing, and Sapphire was like Sebastian.
Everyone opened their eyes at the approximate same time.
"Did we do it right?" Emma smiled.
An earthquake answered her call, as all of a sudden, the floor started caving through. Gabbi ran out, screaming "OH HELL NO" just around that time, Sebastian close behind her. But the stairs started caving quickly. "Fuck." She muttered as they fell into a paradox, almost like in Portal where they kept falling over and over, eventually landing into the classroom opposite of Azelia and Violet's.
"Violet, where are we?" Azelia panicked, eyes darting to Violet, who was unconscious. "No, no, no! Violet wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up!" She yelled, tears forming in her eyes.
Screams echoed throughout the halls, and the second they did Azelia leaped onto Violet, hugging her tightly.
"No, please!" A girl screamed. "Please, our little brother's waiting for us! You want to see him, right? Please, put down the knife, let's talk this out, I-" She was cut off by a slice, followed by a metal sort of thing falling to the ground, as well as a body. Azelia clamped her hand over her own mouth, while the girl just sobbed.
And then she realized the girl had her hand on the doorknob.
Azelia's eyes darted around the room, desperate for a weapon. She found a cleaver and ran up to the door, prepared to attack... Well, sort of.
The girl flung the door open and before she could process anything, a psychotic Azelia lunged at her, biting, kicking, punching, and hacking at her every way she knew how. She struggled and struggled until the cleaver was right above her heart. Now the only things that could save her was either someone attacking Azelia or her arm strength. It was better than Azelia's, but the little girl had advantages. Eventually, she flipped on top of Azelia, grabbing the cleaver and aiming it at her neck.
"Tell me your name!" She yelled, voice cracking. ("I'M PRACTICALLY PUBESCENT" ~Markimoo, 20something)
"Um..." Azelia stuttered.
"TELL ME IT NOW!"
"Christina!"
The girl weakly smiled. "Nice to meet you, Christina. Would you like a mint?"
"Shut up." She growled.
"Hey, no reason to be growling at me. Anyways, why did you just try to kill me?"
"Don't play dumb. We both know, stupid." Azelia narrowed her eyes.
"Oh, yeah?"
"Yeah!" Azelia yelled as she kicked the girl in the shin, switching the upper hand around once again.
"My turn. What's your name?"
The girl whined. "Oh, you have to be kidding me!"
She slapped the girl. "NAME."
"Anna. Anna is my fucking name. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a dead sibling to attend to!"
Anna pushed Azelia off of her and started down the hallway, nearing the corpse.
"Leave me alone for the rest of my life, Anna. That includes family members and friends!" She shouted after the two, turning back to Violet, not before hearing Anna's words.
"That'll be fairly impossible, Azelia."
