Lauren sighed as she flopped on her living room couch. Working in an antique store during the coming holidays was a real pain in the ass, plus having frustrated moving puppets didn't add to the hecticness. The one thing that nearly gave her a heart attack was when she looked to the back of the store, where an old woman was shopping, she saw Pin Head walking around. Seeing a puppet move without strings is destined to cause heart attacks, but before Lauren's blood pressure to could rise, she saw Lee walk by and quickly snatch up the robust puppet and dissappear into the back room. What would she do with out that crazy Indian?
Blade clinked his blade on the glass coffee table top and hissed. Lauren opened her eyes and looked at him. Blade hissed once more before pointing to Lauren's stomach and as if on cue, it growled. Loudly.
Lauren groaned. "I don't wanna get up, Blade. I'll cook something later." She rolled her face into the soft, plush pillow and got comfortable. Blade groaned and looked around the table, his bullet eyes landing on the small DVD remote. He walked to it, flipped it over and poppe dthe back off with his knife. His bullets popped back out as he stared at the batteries, with the tip of his knife he popped those out also so he now was looking at the tiny little spring. With an evil giggle he snaked his hook tip into the spring and positioned himself until he was looking at the back of Lauren's head. With a twist oh his back, he pulled his arm backward then slung the remote right at his target. The remote clacked loudly against Lauren's head, making her jolt and grip the pain filled spot.
"OW! Blade! What the-? Lauren looked down and saw the battery empty DVD remote on the floor, along with three laughing puppets. Lauren looked up and sent a glare to the white and black puppet, but all he did was raise his knife toward the kitchen.
Lauren shot up. "Alright father! I'm going!" Lauren shot off the couch and with her arms waving madly, she stomped into the kitchen. Blade giggled in triumph before jumping to the ground where Jester was rolling around.
Was that really necessary? Leech woman crosed her arms and stared the leader puppet down.
Blade hissed. She hasen't eaten all day if you noticed.Leech humphed and turned her back. Like I care for the welfare of a disgusting human.Blade growled and was about to lunge, but Pin Head held him back and let the giggling female puppet saunter away. Bladeshook Pin head offand with Jester, walked to the kitchen where Lauren was watching the water boil. Jester's face started to twirl until it stopped on a happy expression, making the girl smile. Jester and Blade climbed up the cabinets and seated themselves by the stove.
Lauren smiled sadly. "I heard you and Leech argueing in your puppet talk."
Blade lowered his head and nodded sadly.
Lauren still held her smile. "She still dosen't like me, does she?" she reached over and grabbed the past noodles, breaking them in half above the water then dropping them. Blade looked up to his human as she stirred her noodles and nodded. As much as he cared for Leech Woman, Lauren always comes first for him. It's been like that for generations.
Lauren laughed slightly. "I'm sure she'll come around I mean, you hated me at some point now look at you. I can't go anywhere without you following me with you're weapons ready."
Blade nodded and tapped the round edge of his hook to her wrist. Lauren smiled at the friendly gesture and grabbed the pan before walking to the sink with the strainer. Jester smacked Blade hard in the shoulder making the older puppet jump. Jester twirled his face until it landing on a smirk and giggled. Blade hissed and smacked the puppet of the counter, the faint sund of jingling bells hitting floor made him smirk.
Lauren prepared her spaghetti and walked over to the lare lounge seat only to see Leech Woman sitting there, with no intent of moving. Leech looked up to the confused human holding her plate and giggled. Lauren sighed and stared the puppet down.
"You know, that's where I sit." Lauren looked over to the love seat where the other puppets were sitting happily. "Why don'r you go sit over there?" Leech looked up to Lauren and flared her neck out, gagging as she began to purge up a leech.
"OH! kay never mind then." Lauren turned around and walked back to the kitchen and sat at the table. Blade glared at Leech from his position on the glass table.
Was that necessary? Blade glowered before hopping off the table and walked to Lauren, followed by Jester and Pin Head. Leech woman hmphed and crossed her arms across her chest and leaned into the plush cushion.
