Chapter Nine: According to Plan
Sebastian was waiting at the road, smoking a fag and leaning against a black car. He waited impatiently, and then looked up when he heard the rustling of leaves as his friend Jim came out of the woods. Jim was catching his breath and laughing manically.
"It took you long enough," Sebastian said, annoyed.
"You'll never believe this," said Jim. "The beast attacked Johnny!"
"The beast?"
"Yeah! And then I saw him again! The beast! You should've seen how glorious he was, Seb!"
"That's great, Jim."
"I can't believe, after all these years, I finally found the beast again! You know what that means, don't you?"
"Let me guess, we get to kill him?"
"Get excited Seb, because you are correct. And once I release Johnny Boy from the beast's chains, I will gladly marry him."
"Sounds like you're killing two birds with one stone here, Jim."
"Precisely." Jim climbed into his car with Sebastian and they drove off.
"So," Sebastian asked, "how are we going to kill the beast?"
"First off," Jim replied, "I need an excuse to get John out of the manor. Then, when the beast is at its most vulnerable, we will attack and let it die. And I know exactly how I'm going to do so..."
Author's Note: Hey! Sorry I haven't updated this story in a while. I'm in exam week at school, and am still writing my fictions. I'm going to be very slow this next week, and I'm sorry. But I will try my best to get stuff uploaded for you guys!
As always, thank you for the lovely feedback and appreciation!
