I am soooo sorry I haven't updated in a long time :( I keep adding chapters to my many Hunger Games fics. Hope you enjoy this event filled chapter. This is really rushed, I'll resubmit this later with changes.
Black lace skirts slapped against each stair as she descended. The black roses stitched into it with delicate fingers and dark red ribbons embroidered it. A hand with long slender bony fingers and long disgusting lack fingernails clicked against the wood as she reached out and gripped the banister. Dark red lipstick on slightly chapped lips was brushed by a tongue and chewed slightly by white teeth. Curled blonde hair was wrapped up into a messy bun and tied with an old black and green silk ribbon. Her other hand pulled an emerald green jacket closer to her black corset and lit up the hall as she got closer to the hall below. Each step the obnoxious clicking of her bright green pumps against the stair broke the eerie silence.
"Let me just say- what a great costume" Puck bowed smiling with charm.
"I actually tried this year" Sabrina said looking down at her witch costume. Puck handed her a tall witch's hat and nodded holding Charlie close to him.
"You sure did- it makes my costume look dumb" Puck and Sabrina regarded his pirates costume for a moment. The eye patch, the weird dark blue trousers, black shoes with large buckles, sword on his side, and coat from the wrong century tied with a red sash, white blousy shirt underneath, and oversized black hat on his head.
"Your costume was already dumb" Puck frowned,
"I guess it is" Sabrina grinned and then took Charlie from him. Charlie was dressed in a bright blue dress with little crystals sewed into it. A little crown clip stuck up in her hair making her a little princess. The small family had calmed from the incident of the invader. They still were unsure of who it was or what they wanted.
The doorbell rang and Sabrina gathered the candy bucket from the kitchen. She passed out candy with Charlie on her hip to the children then looked back and Puck and closed the door. Soon after the door was closed the doorbell rang again. Sabrina raised her eyebrows at her husband but turned back to the door.
Sabrina yelled out and tried to hand Charlie to Puck but he was already in front of them defending the house and his family. The caped fool had them pinned in a second by guards and handled the baby himself…
Puck and Sabrina opened their eyes as they were being latched together. Sabrina grabbed his hands and squeezed letting him know she was awake and he squeezed back. The kidnappers left the dark room and were gone.
"It looks like we've been trapped in medieval Italy... I wonder if they'll do some Chinese water torture on us" Puck said looking around at the darkened walls. A small window was behind him somewhere and was casting soft light on the wall in front of him.
"Yeah I've always wondered if that worked" Sabrina joked behind him. The couple was chained to two wooden chairs back to back. Their hands were clasped and sweaty.
"I bet it does, so let's not find out"
"We've been here long enough anyways" Sabrina giggled and stood up breaking the chair on the wall and breaking the chains with the sharp pieces. She rubbed her wrists, looking up at her husband.
"I feel like we're spies" Puck said making a gun with his fingers and pointing them in different directions. Sabrina snorted.
"We sure don't look like them" she noted their Halloween costumes and grinned.
"How long do you think we've been here?"
"Not even 8 minutes" Sabrina guessed
"Little long" Puck shrugged and checked the door
"Eh wanted to give them the satisfaction that they've caught us" he broke the door down with his rhino head. The hall was long and narrow and it was quiet for the most part.
"This way" Puck signaled to the left where the light was more predominate. Sabrina walked behind him her hand folded with his.
"Think she's alright?" she choked slightly
"Yeah" Puck whispered back but wouldn't meet her eye.
The black marble floor contrasted with the gold dress and the skirts swished like a serpent stalking its prey. Her nails scraped along the mantle and her eyes narrowed as she glared at the flames reaching out to her.
"Jack" she sneered turning to look at him. He approached cautiously, his head bowed slightly.
"Yes, Malady?" he bowed and looked up.
"See what's taking them so long" she huffed and turned her back to him glancing into the wooden cradle.
"They shouldn't be that far away" Jack said quietly and turned towards the French doors.
Puck looked up at the floor- to-ceiling doors with little interest. They were carved out of mahogany which seemed to be the choice wood of the castle.
"Are we going to go in?" Sabrina whispered into his neck. He shrugged. The doors vibrated then and the couple took a frightful step back. The dragons carved into the doors swung open and a young man step out.
"Glad you could be here" he smirked, "even if it took you longer than usual, you must be getting old" he smiled nastily.
"Oh I don't get old" Puck smirked and threw the man aside walking into a quite large drawing room. A dome window could be seen above him two stories up reaching into the night sky. Banisters around two floors housed rows and rows of books.
"Nice place" Sabrina said behind him, kicking Jack in the nose. He cried out and laid holding the door open.
"Thank you" A women's silvery voice said to the right of her.
The young wife's head snapped to find a beautiful older women standing with her back against the wall. Her platinum blonde hair was up on top of her head in a swirling motion with diamond glistening barrettes held it together.
The women's long legs kicked off the wall and stocked towards Brina. The black feathered pumps hit against the floor with violence and she placed two elegant hands on her hips.
The dress she was wearing sucked onto her giving her a divine hour-glass figure and perked breasts. Sabrina didn't dare step back. Her long golden skirts in the back shimmered, casting little lights to flick around on the walls as her direction changed.
Puck was beginning to think of stepping back. She smiled predatorily at him and ran a long skinny finger along his jaw.
"Oh Grimm's'" she said into his ear
"Goodfellow's, actually" Sabrina perked up
