Hello all, midnightrebellion86 here.
Yup, it's been over five months since I last touched this story, wow. Well, I now have the motivation to write another chapter after another long ass wait.\
Chapter 9 The Axeman Cometh AU: Part 2
Kyle and Zoe were now set up to play some darts against each other after Kyle won that little girl a prize. Both of them stared down at each other.
"Bring it on, Benson," Kyle said. "I bet you don't even hit the area."
Zoe looked back at Kyle. "Let's make a bet," she challenged. "If I get closest to the bullseye before you do, you have to dress up as a pony and sing the My Little Pony theme song in a high pitched voice while standing on all fours."
Kyle got a cocky grin on his face. "And when I beat you, you're going to drink room temperature milk out of Madison's shoe." He said and folded his arms.
Both Zoe and Kyle shook hands before the former took the first dart. She focused and took a deep breath before finally throwing the dart. She hit the part four spaces away from the bullseye. Kyle laughed at his girlfriend.
"Is that all you got?" Kyle asked.
Zoe just laughed at Kyle. "Get your lungs ready, pretty boy," she replied. "I'm not done, yet."
Zoe took another dart and aimed it at the board. She took a deep breath before cocking her arm back and throwing the second dart. This one was a little bit closer to the bullseye, but not by much.
Kyle got a cocky look on his face when Zoe didn't do much better the second time. "Looks like I won't be singing after all," he said in a confident tone.
"Oh, we'll see about that," Zoe said before grabbing her last dart.
Zoe took in a deep breath and reeled her arm back threw the dart. This time, the dart hit just inches from the bullseye, shocking Kyle.
"Beat that, Kyle," Zoe said with confidence in her voice.
Kyle was now looking on with a bit of nervousness at seeing how close Zoe was to the bullseye. "Shit, you did better than I thought you would, Benson," he said as he grabbed the first of his three darts. "Watch a pro do his work."
"Okay, Mr. Pro," Zoe replied. "I hope you enjoy singing."
Kyle reeled his arm back and took a deep breath before throwing the first dart. Kyle's first dart hit exactly where Zoe's final dart had hit, causing her dart to get knocked off the dart board. Zoe and Kyle looked at each other for a brief moment. The man behind the counter looked at the couple awkwardly. Kyle and Zoe took the time to leave the stand after paying for their game.
"Um, let's just call it a draw," Kyle said. "I know you don't want to drink warm milk from Madison's stinky shoe. Unless you have a crush on her."
Zoe elbowed Kyle in the gut for his last sentence. "You asshole," she teased. "No way in hell would I ever look at that Z-List Barbie in that way."
Kyle just laughed at his girlfriend. "Okay, I'll admit, I would've tried getting out of singing at the top of my lungs if you'd beat me at the dart game," he admitted before putting his arm around Zoe. "Come on, let's go do something else."
The two left the dart game to go do something else.
Quincy's POV:
Me and Misty were walking through the festival and a bunch of other people were doing their own thing. The both of us were still trying to find something to do. That all changed when I saw something that was to my liking. I turned to Misty.
"Hey, let's ride on that," I said pointing to a rollercoaster.
Misty took a look at the ride and saw how far up into the air it was going. She started shaking like a leaf as the ride came to a halt when it reached the top.
"N-No, I ain't going on that thing," Misty stuttered. "L-Let's do something else."
Misty grabbed me by the arm and we walked for a good few minutes before Misty was distracted when she saw something to her liking.
We had come across a karaoke booth being run by a guy around my age. Next to the karaoke booth was a snack booth that consisted of lemonade, chips and cookies. The food stand was being run by a teenaged guy that looked a lot like the guy running the karaoke booth. The guy running the karaoke booth grabbed a mic.
"Ladies and gentlemen, don't be shy," the guy said. "Come sing your heart out with some karaoke!"
I had no interest in singing, but Misty's face lit up with excitement. I turned to her. "No way in hell I'm singing," I quickly said. "I think Madison Montgomery squealing loudly would sound way better me singing. If you want to sing, go right ahead. I'm pretty sure you'd sound way better than me."
Misty looked at me briefly before running up to the karaoke booth. She told the guy what song she wanted to sing. The guy running the booth picked up the mic to announce it.
"Ladies and gentleman, the lovely and beautiful Misty Day will be singing Say You Love Me by Fleetwood Mac!" the man running the karaoke stand said.
The man running the counter gave Misty a look and started looking her up and down. I started getting mad and I ended clenching my fists in anger. I really wanted to just go over to him and kick him right in the gut.
I watched as Misty grabbed the mic. The music started playing and Misty started singing. I didn't know jack shit about Fleetwood Mac and the song she was singing wasn't something I'd ever listen to, but god damn, she was singing her heart out and she was sounding really good. Unfortunately for me, my enjoyment of Misty's singing was interrupted when the cocksucker working the karaoke stand got up and started singing with Misty. I felt a pang of jealousy in my heart as I watched the two sing together. I started to breath heavily and my fists were balled up really tight. Just when I thought things couldn't get any worse, the two looked into each others eyes as the song continued to play. At this point, I couldn't hold in my anger any longer. But before I could do anything, the song came to an end.
The people that were crowding the area erupted into loud cheers and applause. Once the cheers had died down, both Misty and the guy working the stand started talking, which pissed me off even more.
I'm normally not a jealous person. In fact, I'm usually an isolated person that would prefer to go without human contact instead of being around people. But this was different. Seeing how those two were interacting with each other, I wanted to fucking hurt somebody. On one hand, I knew that I could always wish something bad on the little shit working the karaoke stand. On the other hand, I could conceal my powers and just walk up to the little fuck and start kicking the shit out of him. I watched as the karaoke guy started shutting down his stand and Misty was waiting for him. The crowd started thinning out and before I knew it, I was standing all alone watching the scene unfold in front of me. I didn't have a chance to do anything because the moment I saw the guy in charge of karaoke grab Misty by the arm only to be rebuffed.
"Wait, let me tell my friend first before we go," Misty said.
This didn't sit well with the guy running karaoke. His face wrinkled up in anger and annoyance. "Hey, forget about your friend," he said in a rude tone before grabing at Misty again. "You know we sounded good on that stage. When you looked into my eyes, you knew what you wanted. Now let's go!"
Now it was time for Misty to get mad. She yanked her arm out of the guy's grasp and gave him a death glare. "On second thought, I won't be going with you," she said sharply. "I may not have a lot of friends, but you ain't worth my time."
The guy running the snack table next to the karaoke stand overhead the whole thing and he made his way over to the two. "Hey, you can't talk to my brother like that, bitch!" he exclaimed. "You show him some respect!"
"Oh I'll show some respect alright," Misty said before turning her attention to the snack table. She used her powers to grab several cups of lemonade. This stunned the two guys. "Here, you both look like you're thirsty!"
Misty tossed several of the cups of lemonade onto both of their pants, making it look like they both pissed themselves.
I couldn't help but let out a muffled laugh at this.
Misty wasn't done yet, though. She grabbed a tray of assorted cookies and aimed it at the guy that sang with her at karaoke. "Oh we can't forget about dessert," she said before tossing the pan in his face and making all the cookies fall to the ground.
"Bitch, you're going to pay for that!" The brother said.
Before anything could happen, I stormed up to the two penis-licks and stood right next to Misty. "Hey, leave her alone," I said before pushing the guy that sang karaoke with Misty. The guy stumbled back a bit and man it felt good to do something to him. "I wish the both of you would just get really bad shits and ass pain!"
I had said it with so much anger built up from the jealousy that both brothers faces scrounged up in pain and they ran towards the nearest bathroom.
Misty looked at me with mixed emotions all over her face. "Hey, I could've handled them myself," she said before folding her arms. "But thanks."
I didn't really like the mixed reaction and I just shrugged my shoulders. "You're welcome," I said in a flat tone before walking off.
I didn't get far when I felt my arm being grabbed. "Hey, what's wrong?" I turned around and saw Misty with a concerned look on her face.
"Nothing, I'm fine," I lied.
Misty wasn't having it, though. "No, you're not fine," she replied. "You can talk to me."
I gave a loud groan in annoyance and defeat and followed Misty to a nearby bench. I sat down and Misty sat to my left before she crossed her left leg over her right.
"Okay, now tell me what's on your mind," Misty said in a commanding tone.
I really didn't want to talk about it. "It's nothing," I lied again.
Misty took her left leg and stretched it, crossing it over both her right leg and my left leg, causing me to get excited.
"Okay, okay, I hate the guy you were singing with back there," I finally admitted.
Misty smiled at me. "You ain't gotta be jealous of him," she said. "Why are you so jealous?"
"Because I can't sing worth shit and you and that other guy were totally in sync with each other while singing," I said. "Seeing the eye contact and body language on stage just really pissed me off. I really tried holding back my anger, but I couldn't."
"Listen, I'm sorry I made you jealous," Misty said. "But you can't just go around using your powers to harm everyone like that. I will admit, I was jealous myself earlier in the car with the way you and Kaylee interacted while talking about fantasy football. I also did see you checking her out a bit."
I now had a guilty look on my face. I had to admit, Kaylee was gorgeous as hell and I would totally be pursuing her if I didn't know Misty.
"Okay, that's my bad," I admitted. "I will tell you straight up that if I hadn't met you, I'd go for her. But you're my first pick and not only that, I don't think Bastien would appreciate that. Also, as far as me using my powers, I'm not a robot and I'm not going to put up with people pushing my buttons."
Misty leaned in and planted a wet kiss on my cheek. A grin formed on my face from ear to ear.
"What was that for?" I asked the swamp beauty.
"For being honest with me," Misty replied. "I'm sorry if I were trying to change you into something you're not. To be honest, I did find it funny when those two assholes back there had their ass pains."
I put my arm around Misty. "Hey, you don't gotta be sorry," I said as I began rubbing Misty's leg. "You don't want to be lonely again."
Misty uncrossed her legs and stood up. "Come on, let's go do something else," she said.
I stood up and stopped Misty. "Before we go, I have something to ask," I said.
"What is it?" Misty asked.
"Will you be my girlfriend?" I asked.
Misty got quiet and I waited nervously. Time seemed to pause and my heart started beating super fast. Then after what seemed like several hours, Misty's face lit up and she had a big smile on her face.
"Yes, I'll be your girlfriend!" Misty exclaimed.
We shared an embrace and a passionate kiss before breaking the embrace. I put my arm around my new girlfriend.
"Okay, now let's get the fuck out of here," I said. "I'm bored standing in one place."
Me and Misty went to go find something else to do.
After spending the day at the festival, we made our way back to the academy after dropping off Kaylee and Misty. We were all sitting in the living room now. Queenie was busy eating something that Delphine had made while Madison was sitting on one of the chairs playing with her iPhone. The Z-List movie start looked up from her phone and decided to be nosy.
"So, what did you losers all do today?" Madison asked.
"We went out," Zoe replied in a flat tone. "Why do you even care anyway?"
"You don't have to be such a bitch," Madison argued back. "But my day was way more cooler."
Queenie got annoyed with Madison. "Girl, would you just shut up?" she said in a bored tone. "Don't nobody want to hear your mouth."
Madison used her telekinesis to knock Queenie's food all over her. All this did was piss Queenie off really bad. "You fucking bitch!" she shouted before concentrating all her energy into her face before punching herself as hard as she could, transferring all the pain to Madison's face.
"OWW, FUCKER!" The Z-List movie start squeals.
Before Madison could retaliate, both Zoe and Nan stepped in between them.
"Guys, you're both going to get reamed," Zoe said.
Both Madison and Queenie stopped what they were doing.
"Well, now that we have that shit out of the way, what are we going to tell Cordelia?" Nan asked.
"We can worry about that tomorrow," I replied. "I think she's doing her nightly ritual now anyways."
Normal POV:
Cordelia locked the door to her room. She used her cane to navigate through the room and accidently bumped her leg against an end table.
"Shit!" Cordelia swore under her breath.
Cordelia slowly reached her bed before reaching out her hand and opening up the drawer. She pulled out her prescription medicine and opened the bottle, accidently dropping a pill onto the floor.
"God damn it," Cordelia said under her breath at her mistake.
Cordelia took two pills before washing them down with water. She untied her robe and removed it, revealing her sleepwear, which consisted of a black bra and a short black skirt. Cordelia immediately started to breathe heavily due to feeling a bad presence in her room. A few seconds go by and that presence makes itself known.
"I always hated this room," A middle aged man with a scowl on his face said as he appeared near the door.
Cordelia was now frightened at someone being in her room. She took a few deep breaths before working up the courage to speak. "Who are you?" she asked in a shaky tone. There was an awkward silence, so she continued. "What do you want?"
The middle aged man started making his way over to Cordelia. "I want release," he replied.
"I can't do that," Cordelia replied, but she was immediately pinned against the wall, causing her to gasp in a mix of fear and shock.
"I don't think so, dirty pussycat," the middle aged man replied as he glared at Cordelia. "Those god damn witches. They killed me once, right here in this very room. I've been trapped in this room for years. Now earlier today, this young blonde fresh faced witch thought it would be fun to push my buttons. Dressed like a slut, calling me names, cracking jokes about me."
Cordelia was still shaking like a leaf as the middle aged man rambled on.
"And you want to know what else?" the middle aged man rambled. "She offered me my release in exchange for me answering her questions. I answered her questions honestly and she continued to push my buttons."
Cordelia caught her breath and finally felt comfortable talking. "You died?" she asked. The man nodded. "And now you're trapped?"
"Right here with you," the man replied.
Cordelia started panting. "The only way I can help you is if you let me out of here," she said.
"No, nobody leaves this room," the man said in a cold tone. "You bring that trashy blonde witch in here and you make her set things right. All you have to do is sing and dance. I'll provide the music."
Cordelia started screaming at the top of her lungs.
Quincy's POV:
Me, Queenie, Nan, Madison and Zoe were still up, but Kyle, Bastien and Delphine were already in bed. Things had quieted down, but that peaceful silence wouldn't last long because Cordelia started screaming at the top of her lungs. The five of us could sense a spirit in Cordelia's room, but Madison just played it cool.
"The Axeman?" I said.
Queenie glared at Madison. "Girl, are you fucking crazy!?" she shouted. "I told you not to fuck with that spirit board you found in your room!"
Madison was still acting careless about it. "Oh, boo-ho," she said in a flat tone. "It's not like she has anything going for her anyways. After all, her husband can't be faithful."
"You heartless bitch!" Zoe shouted and used her telekinesis on Madison. "Are you trying to fucking get us all killed? Now we have to find a spell to release him."
We made our way to the spell books, but none of them were in English.
"God fucking damn it," I said out of frustration. "What the hell did you say to that spirit, Madison?"
Madison just shrugged her shoulders. "What? I just told him he had a small dick and fucked with him a bit. No big deal," she replied.
We all let out an angry groan at Madison's actions. We sifted through the books, but we couldn't find anything. That's when an idea popped into my head.
"I have a binding spell that can bind sprits to objects," I said. "Everybody, move out of my way because I don't want to accidently bind this thing to any of you. Madison maybe, but I digress."
I get my ritual stuff ready and grab a clear quartz to bind with The Axeman after getting all the shit ready, I do the chant and repeat it several times and after what felt like hours, I felt a bit drained, but I also heard the screaming stop.
Madison went to grab the clear quartz, but Zoe stopped her. "Don't even think about it," she said.
I snatched up the object, which felt a bit heavy and I made my way outside and threw it as far as I could off the property. Nan ran up to Cordelia's room to see if she was alright. After all that shit, we went to bed.
That's it for this chapter.
I couldn't find a binding spell and quite honestly, I wanted to just get this chapter out after not posting anything for fifty million years.
First, I want to thank the awesome and loyal NotMarge for her earlier reviews and the two gust reviewers.
Gwenyth Taylor Plunkett, I considered your idea of having my OC fool around with Kaylee before getting with Misty and I actually did have the scene written down, but then I was too tempted to just ship my OC with both her and Misty. The other reason for me scrapping it is because in the canon flashback of the Axeman episode, Kaylee just wants a good husband and combine that with the fact that Bastien comes from a time where he's not treated with love, I just couldn't do Bastien like that.
While on the topic of shippings, I haven't forgotten about Luke and Nan. Also, I will be shipping Cordelia with the African American gardener that Delphine kills in the show. I was going to have my OC fool around with Cordelia before getting with Misty as well, but I was like nah, Cordelia just found out that her husband was unfaithful and rebounds never go well.
Okay, that's all I have to say.
Bye for now.
