Beetlejuice's point of view
I must admit that Fly is pretty good with magic, for a Breather. She was able to shape shift her arm and deal with it allot better then I thought she would. Plus she was able to fix her entire dress without suddenly getting a nose bleed, even though she did faint.
It was now the next day and I was sitting down at the kitchen table, eating a bowl of beetles, when I noticed Fly walking into the room. She still looked a little tired, but she seemed to be alright. "So, how are you feeling?" I asked as she sat down on a chair, across the table.
"I'm feeling as good as Miss Mary Sunshine." she said as she looked at me with a silly face.
"Good, then we're going out." I said, before tossing a beetle into my mouth.
"Where?" Fly asked, with a confused look on her face.
"We're going to see someone who can tell us something about your dagger." I said, as I stood up from the table and grabbed Fly's hand, as I made my way to the door. We left the house and I was on my way to the garage, when I suddenly heard a French accent.
"Beetlejuice!" yelled out Jacque as he was running towards me.
"Oh shit." I said as I pulled Fly behind me, trying to block her from Jacque's view.
"Eh, Beetlejuice. Are you going out?" he asked, as he looked down at me.
"No, I'm just checking to see if my car was feeling okay." I said feeling a little annoyed.
"Oh, and who is this?" he said as he noticed Fly behind me.
"This is Fly. She's going to be staying with me for awhile." I said as I pulled her from behind me.
"Oh, ello mademoiselle. My name is Jacque. Ah, my wife Ginger told me already so much about you."
"Oh, hello, it's very nice to meet you." she said as she shook his hand.
"Well, we better get going." I said as I grabbed her wrist and started to pull her into the garage.
"Um, nice meeting you." I heard her yelling out, right before I closed the door.
We hopped inside the car and drove off in it. We kept quiet until Fly suddenly said something.
"So why did you want to get out of there so quick?" she asked with a confused look on her face.
"Because I was afraid that he would suddenly ask me to do him a favor." I said as I turned a corner.
"Oh, does he normally ask you for favors?" she asked.
"At least half the time, and he's so obnoxious, with all of his bodybuilding." I said as we were finally coming into the city.
"Oh, I thought he seemed pretty nice for a skeleton. All of them that I've met where alcoholics." she said as she shrugged her shoulders.
"He's alright I guess. Ah, here we are." I said as I stopped the car in front of a large red and white striped circus tent. We both got out of the car and I could see Fly looking very confused.
"What is this place?" she asked as she walked to my side.
"This is Scuzzo and Fuzzo's shop. They know allot about weapons and perhaps they'll tell us something about yours." I explained as we came closer to the entrance.
We soon entered inside and I felt a little surprised at how clean everything looked. Normally there would be crate's, filled with different weapons all over the place. We made our way towards the counter and I rang the small bell that laid on it.
"Coming!... Fuzzo! Go and help the customers!" yelled out Scuzzo's annoying and screechy voice.
I quickly ducked behind Fly and placed my hands on her hips to keep her in front of me. I could hear Fuzzo walking towards the counter.
"Hello Miss. What are you looking for?" he asked, with a stupid look on his face, like he was picturing Fly naked.
"Yes, I was wondering.." said Fly, before Fuzzo grabbed her arm.
"Wow, you're a really high quality whore." said Fuzzo, as he stared at her skin.
"Excuse me? Let go of me!" Fly yelled out, as she tried to pull her arm from his grasp.
"I'll pay you five-thousand dollars for the day." he said, trying to get lucky.
"I've got plenty of money. Now let me go!" she yelled out again.
"Fuzzo! I believe the lady told you to get your sausage fingers off of her." I said as I quickly pulled her arm away from his grasp.
"Beetlejuice?" said Fuzzo.
"What? What's he doing here?" said Scuzzo, as he suddenly came up to the counter. "Ah, looks like he's got himself a little girlfriend."
"I'm not his girlfriend." said Fly a little too quickly for my liking. "And this guy keeps harassing me."
"Fuzzo, go and take out the trash." said Scuzzo, as he watched his brother go into the back. "Sorry about that. Now then, how can I help you?"
"I want you tell me if you might know anything on this weapon." said Fly as she unsheathed her dagger and placed it on the counter. "It's best that you don't touch the blade."
"Why not?" asked Scuzzo, as he looked at with interest.
"Because it burns the skin of ghosts and turns it into ash." I answered.
"The design of the metal is beautiful and for some reason it doesn't have any flaws." said Scuzzo, after he carefully examined it, in front of us. "Where did you get this?"
"I don't know." said Fly, with a look that made me feel a little worried.
"The only thing that I could tell you is that, only a mad genius could have possibly made something like this." said Scuzzo as he looked at it with awe.
"Why do you say that?" asked Fly, with a bit of concern.
"This blade has been laced with a Sandworms poison." said Scuzzo, as he scratched his head. "But I'm not exactly sure what type."
"Do you know someone who could tell us?" asked Fly.
"I know someone who might be able to tell you something about it and I'll tell you where to find him, for a price." said Scuzzo, with a large red grin on his face.
"Tch, I knew it." I said with a small smile on my face.
"How much?" asked Fly.
"I don't want money. Have sex with me and I'll give you a name." said Scuzzo as his grin grew wider.
"Hell no she won't." I said, with an irritated look on my face.
"BJ, don't make decisions for me." said Fly as she looked up at me. "And hell no, I won't have sex with you."
"Then I won't tell you anything." said Scuzzo.
"Is there anything else that you might possibly want, that has nothing to do with my body?" asked Fly, with a desperate look on her face.
"We get a free prank on Beetlejuice." said Scuzzo, after thinking about it.
"No way!" I said quickly. "Not in a million years."
"Then I can't help you." said Scuzzo.
"Please BJ?" asked Fly as she looked at me with pleading eyes.
I looked down at the ground as I tried to think it over. I looked back at Fly and saw that she was still staring at me. "All right then. Just give us the name already." I said, as I quickly looked away from Fly.
"Good, now just stay still." said Scuzzo, before picking up a weird looking bazooka. "Fire!"
I soon felt a dozen pies being hurled at me, one right after the other. I stood there with coconut cream oozing off of my face. "Now tell us the name." I said as cream was dripping off the tip of my nose.
"You're not going to like this. It's Dr. Zigmund Void." said Scuzzo, with a small smile on his face.
Suddenly I could feel a small knot forming in the pit of my stomach. My heart started beating like crazy. "Is there anyone else, besides him, who could tell us?" I asked.
"No, he's the only one who could possibly know." he said, as he shook his head.
"Very well, come on babes. Let's go." I said. "Callousfly, play a prank on them." I whispered, as we came to the exit.
Fly suddenly tensed up, but kept walking, until she was out of the tent. Suddenly from the corner of my eye, I saw her kick two metal spikes that were holding the tent up, from the ground. I watched as the tent sank in and I could hear crashing noises coming from under it. We quickly ran into the car and I quickly ran off. We were a mile away, before Fly started to talk again.
"You know it hurts when you say that name." she said as a sad look grew on her face.
"It does?" I asked feeling a little confused.
"Yes, but I think the more you say it, the less it hurts." she said, as she looked down at the ground.
"Hm, you're such a bizarre little thing." I said as I made a sharp turn.
"I'm starting to realize that. So, where is this Doctor?" asked Fly.
"He's right now living somewhere that I swore I would never go back to." I said as I stopped at a red light.
"And where is that?" asked Fly, looking a little nervous.
"He's in Neitherneitherland"
Mad Scientists, Meara and Neara, Inside Secret Lab
"All right Neara. Go and check up on Bartholomew's progress." said Meara as she sat at the large computer screens.
"Why do I have to do it?" asked Neara, as she was playing with chemicals at one of the tables.
"Because it's your project and we need to see if that substance he's in, is working." answered Meara, as she kept her eye at the computers.
"Fine, but I won't enjoy it." she said as she left her chemicals and exited down a set of stairs.
Suddenly a large face popped up on the screen. It was a giant lip that had eyes popping on the top.
"Ah, Lip Scum. I'm glad that I got a hold of you." said Meara as she settled in her chair. "I was wondering if you would be interested in a little job for me, and in return, I'll give you thirty-thousand dollars for every tip that you have."
"Sounds like a plan. Now tell me the details." said Lip Scum, as he grinned.
Fly's point of view
I never knew that there could possibly be a place below the Neitherworld. When we got back to the Road House, BJ explained to me that it was a place that was created for the criminally insane. It was a place filled with horrors that could melt my brain out of my skull and the one who ruled it was known as Little Miss Warden. He also told me that he was once trapped there for awhile, but escaped from it and never went back.
The next day I didn't talk to him about it. Instead we ignored the subject all together and BJ taught me how to recognize my magic when it went into the dagger. It was nice and uneventful. I kind of missed those days when I didn't do hardly anything.
The next day was pretty much the same except he taught me how to change the color of my body and it kind of went like that for at least a week. We didn't really go anywhere except, we did go to the Mini Golf Course, but that was it.
On a Thursday, I woke up in my bedroom, on my bed, inside BJ's portion of the house. It was an interesting room. It wasn't too big or too small. The walls were painted purple and had black spider web designs on it. The floor was a dark wood (same as all the other furniture) and there was a rug in the middle of the room that was black and white striped. My bed matched the room; even one of the pillows were black and white striped. It was a pretty cool room and I liked it.
I stood up from the bed and took off the purple night gown that Ginger gave me the other day. I slipped myself into my dress and slipped into all of my ornaments and strapped my dagger around my thigh. I was soon ready for the day and headed out of the room.
I walked into the kitchen and saw no one there. 'Beetlejuice must still be in bed.' I thought to myself as I walked over to the refrigerator.
"I wouldn't open that if I were you." said Beetlejuice, right as I was about to open it.
"Why not? Are there go…" I was about to finish my sentence, but thought better of it.
"Because there are things crawling in there that I don't think you would want to eat." he said as he snapped his fingers. Suddenly a set of chains were crawling around it and soon a lock appeared and clicked between the chain links.
"What am I going to eat now?" I asked out loud.
"Come on babes, we can go out to eat today." said Beetlejuice as he was walking towards the door.
I followed and I soon was sitting down in his car and we were driving towards a restaurant. "BJ, do you think that we could possibly break into Neitherneitherland?" I asked, as the air past through my hair.
"No, and I don't want to try. I'm sure that we can figure out whatever the Doctor knows." he said as we came into the city.
"Hm, maybe. BJ, I've been meaning to ask you something," I asked, looking at him with a serious face.
"And what is that?" he asked, as he grinned at me.
"If my name is Callllll…Calllll… you know." I said, making sure that he knew.
"Yes, Callousfly." he said as his grin was growing smaller.
"Yes, if that's my name, then what happens to my other name?" I asked, trying to understand what it all meant.
"The one that you had in the Outside World, is no longer the name that enslaves you. If you forget it, then there's no hope for you to ever get out of here." He said, as his smile vanished from his face.
"Did you forget yours?" I asked.
"Of course, I'm over six-hundred years old babes. I think that I would have forgotten it by now" he said as the car stopped. "Have you forgotten yours?" he asked as he intensely stared at me.
"Of course not. It's Fly, isn't it?" I asked as I gave him a playful smile.
"I guess your right." said BJ as he opened his car door.
We both walked into the diner and sat down at a booth. It wasn't long before we ordered something to eat and it took even less time for it to come out on the table. BJ was eating his beetle pancakes when I suddenly felt a question scratching at the surface of my brain.
"BJ, how did you die?" I asked as I poked at my green eggs and ham.
"You know what I was just thinking?" asked Beetlejuice, before swallowing a mouthful of his pancakes.
I shook my head, feeling a little awkward at the sudden question.
"I was just thinking about raping you right here and now on this table and then watching the shocked face of that little girl over there." he said as he nodded towards the little girl across the diner.
I felt so disgusted at this creep. I somehow lost control of my emotions and suddenly stood up. I quickly through my food at him and it hit his chest, staining his suit. Suddenly I heard laughter escaping his mouth. Everyone stared at us and I watched as he laughed even harder.
"That's the most emotion I've ever seen on your face." he said as he kept laughing.
I became angry again and I soon was storming out of there. I didn't care. I had to be away from that place and away from him. I stormed away, running and then walking, getting slower with every step. My anger was subsiding and soon I looked up from the asphalt that was under my feet.
I was in front of a movie theater. I needed a good movie to laugh at and smile. I walked up to the ticket booth. "Hello, I would like one ticket to whatever movie that's going to play right now." I said to the headless man.
"HHellr…utofngiasd…f6849 !...#$$%%." He said, which I couldn't understand, but I gave him a fifty and took the ticket.
I walked inside and quickly sat myself down in a chair and waited for the movie to start. I wasn't sure what this movie was about, but whatever it was, not many people wanted to see it. I didn't really care what it was. I was angry and I knew that I had to go back to the house sometime. So I might as well make him worried.
The lights blackened and I watched. I might as well say it now. That was the most depressing movie I had ever seen, but there was something about it that I didn't mind too much. I watched it and as I was watching the screen, I could here someone bawling there eyes out. I looked around and saw a young man, who could have been a little younger, then me, crying and blowing his nose in a handkerchief. His skin was green and his face was a little sunken in. His hair was a deep black and as well as his eyes.
I rolled my eyes and tried to keep watching the movie. Suddenly I felt something in me, snap again, as I heard him moaning. I quickly stood up and jumped off of my chair and onto the next one, right by him.
He looked at me with his blood shot eyes in confusion and I suddenly felt myself slap him across the face. Everyone looked towards us and the movie suddenly stopped. The lights came back on and everything was silent. I didn't care, I kept my eyes on his, making him quiver a little.
Suddenly I felt someone grab me. I could feel two pairs of hands on my shoulders and arms, suppressing me away from the man. That was when I noticed the crown on the man's head. It wasn't very large, but it was definitely a crown.
I soon felt a knot growing in the pit of my stomach, I almost felt like I was going to throw up before I heard the man talking.
"Put that woman down." He said a little forcefully.
They suddenly placed me down and I quickly started to fix my dress. I didn't pay attention to him walking closer towards me nor did I notice him kneeling down on one knee. I didn't notice him, until I felt him grab my hand and kiss it. I looked down at him and watched his dark eyes staring up at me.
"Would you like to go out with me?" he asked, with a strange look on his face.
"Um, I don't even know your name." I said, feeling awkward.
"My name is Vince. I am the Prince of the Neitherworld."
Mad Scientists, Meara and Neara, Inside Secret Lab
The computer screen flicked on and Lip Scum's large grin was on the screen. Neara was sitting up at the computer and suddenly noticed him.
"Meara!" yelled out Neara.
Meara came walking up a set of stairs and saw Neara motioning for her. She quickly came to her side and saw Lip Scum's ugly smile on the screen.
"What do you want Lip Scum?" she asked, with a look of irritation written on her face.
"I am happy to inform both of you that I have spotted this girl you call Fly." He said, looking very ecstatic.
"You have? Where is she?" demanded Meara.
"Am I really going to get thirty-thousand dollars?" asked Lip Scum.
"Yes, yes. Of course. Now tell me where she is." said Meara, feeling very anxious.
"She was with Beetlejuice, but she just ran away from him and he isn't following her."
"Thank goodness, now tell me about her whereabouts."
