Chapter 10: CELESTE!
The flock members enter the toy store.
The little ones stare in wonder and excitement.
The song "It's a Small World" sings thoughout the store.
Yes. Yes. It is a very small world. A world we will one day rule.
Stuffed animals. I need a stuffed animal.
Angel wants a stuffed animal. She feels drawn to the piles and shelves of stuffed animals. She runs with Nudge to these plushed creatures, while the boys head over to the lego and bionicle section.
The two girls pick up one stuffed animal after another, showing them to Max. They make their ways tot he middle of the aisle.
Yes, yes. Over there. Our wonderful leader. The AMAZING Celeste!
Maybe there's something over there.
Angel feels pulled to a small specific pile near the middle of the stacked rows colorful creatures.
Most of these creatures are inferior to our well developed minds and souls. These creature are no use to us. We just need our leader.
Her hand pulls out from the pile, a small bear dressed like an angel.
Yes, yes. There he is. OUR KING!
I must have this bear. Nothing is going to stand in my way. I will have this bear.
She tugs on Max's sleeve.
Max looks down at her.
Angel pleads to Max with her eyes.
Max looks at the price tag. She says they can not afford the bear. That she wishes that they could, but they can't.
I NEED the BEAR!
"But I want it," Angel snaps at Max.
Max tells her no.
This will NOT DO!
Scare her.
Max turns around.
Angel stands and glares angrily at Max.
Max walks to the 'mythical' display table.
She plays with the figure eight ball.
She walks over to the Ouiji board.
Angel uses her psychic powers to move the hands of the Ouiji board.
She moves the hand to different letters. Forming a phase.

This scares Max.
She screams out for Fang.
While Max panics, Angel finds a way for her to get the bear. SHE NEEDS THE BEAR!
Angel walks up to a woman.
Please, buy me this bear.
"I... I... I," the woman stammers.
I really, really, really want this bear. I have to have the bear. Please, buy me the bear.
The woman doesn't understand what is happening. She is confused and a little scared.
Then her mind goes blank.
The flock members see them.
BUY me THE BEAR!
"Sweetie, do you want this bear? Here let me buy it for you," the woman says.
Angel nods eagerly. The woman walk up to the counter and buys Angel the bear.
Angel is practically jumping up and down in excitement. She thanks the woman multiple times and goes back to the flock.
This woman will never find out why she bought a small little girl a stuffed bear. Why she spent fourty nine dollars on a toy that isn't even for her own children. She doesn't know and she never will.
"What was that about? That thing cost fourty nine dollars!" Max says.
THING!? Oh she must suffer for that. She will suffer for that.
"What did you say to her? No one is buying us stuff," Iggy demands.
"Nothing, I just asked that lady if she would buy me this bear, cause I really, really wanted it and I didn't have enough money," Angel says.
Max moves the flock members out of the store.
"So, you just asked a stranger to buy you an expensive toy and she did?" Max asks.
Angel nods rubbing Celeste.
Yes, yes. Rub him. Hold him. Treasure must keep our leader happy.
"Yeah, I just asked her to buy it for me, you know with my mind?" Angel explains.
Fang and Max exchange looks. This scares them. This scares the others.
"Um, what do you mean, exactly?" Max asks wanting clarification.
"I just asked her, in my mind and she said okay. And she bought it for me," Angel says.
Celeste. I like Celeste.
"I'm going to call it Celeste," Angel says.
"Angel, are you saying you influenced that woman to buy you that bear?" Max asks.
It's name is Celeste!
"Celeste,"Angels says. "What's influenced?"
"To have an effect on something or someone. It sounds like you sort of MADE that woman buy you that bear..."
"Celeste," Angel corrects
"CELESTE, whether she wanted to or not. Do you see what I'm saying?" Max says.
I did nothing wrong.
"Well, I REALLY wanted Celeste. More than anything in the world."
Max and Fang look at each other.
Max gives up. No point in lecturing her about it now. It already happened.
They bought farafel (AN: Anyone know what this is?) for lunch.
Angel tucks Celeste into her waistband.
Max is doubting Angel.
This must not do.
Max shouldn't doubt me. I should make her feel better.
Angel tries to calm down Max's thoughts. She feels like this is her fault, that she must make Max feel better.
It's just a toy, Max. Kids deserve toys. Don't you think you deserve a toy too?
Max thinks back out loud.
The others look at her in worry.
She is glad though that her head doesn't hurt anymore.
Angel thinks. She realizes that she has been hurting Max. She feels bad.
Everything is okay. The pain is gone. Max feels no more pain from my voice.
I'm sorry it hurts sometimes, Max. I don't want to hurt you. I want to help you.
Max clamps her lips together to avoid from speaking out loud.
AN: Creeped out yet?
I've been waiting to write this chapter for a while now.
Hope you guys enjoyed it.
Review, review, review.
