Chapter 16 Dollnapped!
Annie's parents were going to be out of town on a business trip for a few weeks, so it was just going to be her and Armin watching over the house in the meantime. Needless to say, Armin was thrilled to have Annie all to himself without her parents around! He was so happy he was bouncing for joy on Annie's bed.
"We get the house all to ourselves! We get the house all to ourselves! We get the house all to ourselves!" Armin cheered bouncing on the bed. "Well damn you're hyper today" Annie laughed watching her doll from her make up table."well ofcource I am!" Armin replied. "I get to have my beautiful owner all to myself for three weeks" He smiled.
Annie was wearing pigtails today instead of her usual bun, with a black hoodie, grey tank top and dark blue skinny jeans while Armin wore a black fluffy fur coat, a black corset top that stopped above his belly button, black silk gloves, and skin tight black skinny jeans with black lace up boots that stopped at his knee. He kept the ribbon collar that Annie gave him yesterday around his neck.
Annie smiled at the cheerful doll. "You really love that collar don't you?" She asked. Armin beamed as he looked up at Annie."uh huh" he replied. "It's proof that my Annie loves and cares about me" he smiled ghosting his fingers over the collar fondly."I would never take it off for anything in the world.." He sighed to himself. "I love my Annie.." He repeated in a dreamy voice while looking at the collar.
Annie smiled a bit and kissed his soft pudgy nose making him blush."you're a real romantic dork you know that? " she asked. "But I'm your romantic dork!" Armin replied cheerfully. Annie chuckled at this.
"Yes," she replied, "My romantic dork…" she smiled caressing his face.
The atmosphere shifted suddenly, as the two stared at each other lovingly for a moment longer until—
The doorbell chimed throughout the house, breaking the moment. Sighing, Annie went down stairs and opened the door to a face she wasn't expecting.
"Mikasa?" she asked, raising an eyebrow. "What are you doing here?"
Indeed it had been a while since she had last tried to destroy Armin, and needless to say they were not on the best of terms. Why Mikasa was here was beyond her, and she couldn't stop the suspicion from clenching her gut.
"I…I wanted to apologize," she said, "for…trying to hurt your...er…doll."
Annie couldn't tell physically if she was lying or not, but something felt off. "Okay then…why the sudden change of heart?"
"Well we haven't talked in a while, and I just…I want to make things right."
Annie's other eyebrow rose. "I…" she didn't know what to say. "But you claimed he tried to kill you—"
"I was exaggerating," she interrupted, "I…I guess I never trusted him…and…"
Now confused beyond belief, Annie let out an aggravated sigh. "And what now? You think we were just going to go back as if nothing was wrong?"
"N-not immediately, no," replied the Asian woman, "I don't expect your forgiveness or anything,but I thought it'd be best to start going in that direction—"
Refusing to hear any more, Annie simply slammed the door shut. "Ridiculous," she muttered under her breath, "What kind of bullshit was that? 'I was exaggerating' my ass—something isn't adding up."
When she made it back to her room, she immediately realized she was right. Signs of foul play could be seen in the room. The window was wide open, and the stool near her vanity table was knocked over. Armin's favorite fancy hair brush and other accessories such as his ribbons and shattered cologne bottle could be seen scattered about on the floor as well. His pants and black fluffy coat laid torn and ruffled up on the ground.
"…Armin? She asked, cautiously looking around the room. Her heart slowly began thudding in her ears when she received no response. "Where are you…?" Panic Rose in her chest as she looked for her doll. "Armin!?" She called out again. She looked everywhere, she looked under her bed, and searched through the giant walk in closet that housed all of his plushies, both of their outfits and the rest of his possessions.
After a thorough search, all she was able to come up with was a torn ribbon collar. The very same collar that he was gushing over earlier.
"That BITCH!" Annie roared, her fists tightening around the collar.
~+~flashback
Armin smiled totally lovestruck and in content as he watched Annie leave the room. While she went downstairs to go see who it was, he walked over to Annie's vanity table where he started brushing his hair. Smiling at his pretty reflection, he opened his mouth and quietly started signing to it while brushing his hair.
"Playground school Bell riiinnngs..agaiiiin~"
Grayyyy clouds come tooo playyyy..agaiiiin~"
Armin sang to his reflection. His voice was so pretty he almost sounded like Evanescence...almost.
His singing stopped however, once he caught sight of a sillohette from Annie's window in the mirror. "What the fuck..?" Armin wondered turning around. His eyes widened in alarm when he seen Bertholt and Erica storm through the window. Armin yelped as he was tackled off of the stool and onto the ground by Bertholt."ANNIE!" Armin screamed thrashing about as Bertholt held him down.
"ANN-" Armin's screams were silenced by Bertholt stuffing a nearby sock in Armin's mouth, causing the doll to bite his yelped in pain but did his best to restrain Armin. The Marionette squirmed under Bertholt shouting and screaming all sorts of muffled curses through the gag. He then socked Bertholt in the Jaw attempting to get up, but was overcome by the taller man once more.
His ribbon choker tore off his neck amidst the scuffle.
"No!" Armin screamed in his head as the collar fell to the ground, ripped and slightly tattered.
"Erica grab his head!" Bert yelped scuffling with Armin on the floor. Erica quickly grabbed Armin by the hair and forcefully popped it off of his body with a loud "PLOP!" Sound. If looks could kill, Erica would have been vaporized straight to the bowels of Hell by Armin. His glittery blue eyes slowly sparkled to a horrifying blood red as she quickly stuffed his head in a large sack.
They then proceeded to partly undress and dismember the rest of Armin, throwing him all in the bag along with his head. The only thing that stayed on him was his corset,gloves, and black lace underwear since they didn't get in the way. His fur coat, torn skinny jeans and leather lace up boots laid discarded on the legs went first, then his arms. Last was the major core part of his body which all consisted of his neck, torso, lower abdomen,and bottom. The two began to quickly tie the bag up tightly before throwing it out of the window.
Armin yelped within the bag as it landed outside on the ground with a loud "THUD!". He screamed some as he felt the bag being hoisted up by someone, taking him away from the house. Body parts rattled, scratched, and kicked within the sack in attempt to free himself but it was all in vain.
"Annie!" Armin muffled crying within the bag."ANNIIIEEEEE!"
~+~Now
"That was just as hard as I thought it would be," Bertoldt huffed, struggling to keep the kicking sack still. "Who knew he can still move after all that?"
"He's a fucking demon," Erica muttered in agreement.
"It doesn't matter now," Mikasa, whom had caught up to the three of them. "But we should hurry up—Annie's bound to have realized that he's gone by now."
The sack kicked again with a vengeance, making Bertoldt grunt.
"Aww, don't be scared sweetums," Erica mocked, poking the bag. "You'll only stay this way frorever!"
Now you can stay this way forever!
A muffled wail escaped the sack as it continued to kick even three teens ventured further, deep into the woods. Much further past the area where Annie found Armin all those years ago. They stopped once they believed that they were far enough.
"Here's good," Mikasa decided, "Bring out a leg or something."
Bertoldt then dropped the bag on the floor, earning another muffled wail.
"I get to choose first!" Erica laughed, digging into the bag. "O-ow! He—keeps—kicking—!"
She finally succeeded in pulling out a struggling leg, holding it at arm's length to keep it from kicking her in the face.
"Alright," Mikasa said, pulling out a shovel. "I'll dig, you keep a hold on that leg, and Bertoldt keep an eye on the bag—don't let a single piece escape."
The other two nodded and did their respective jobs—and twenty minutes later the leg was buried under a few feet of dirt.
"One down," Bertoldt muttered, "A few more to go."
~with Annie~
Annie was borderline hysterical in her search for Armin. She searched the front yard, the garage,the bushes, and everywhere in the backyard but The young man was nowhere to be found."ARMIN!" Annie screamed as salt water escaped her icy orbs. "ARMIN PLEASE ANSWER ME!" she sobbed crying. There was no sound of the doll's sweet voice to be heard from anywhere. Only the soft pitter patter of oncoming rain answering her.
'Dear God please this can't be happening .." Annie thought to herself on her knees shaking now in the rain. 'Please don't take someone I love away from me again..!" She silently prayed clutching onto Armin's collar.
~with Mikasa's crew & Armin~
"Finally...the last piece.." An exhausted Erica replied taking out Armin's head. She left it dangling by his hair, keeping him at arms length so he wouldn't bite her or anything. Armin gave them all a look that clearly screamed "go to Hell!". " I WANT TO GO HOME! " Armin demanded with his head thrashing about. "I WANT MY ANNIE! TAKE ME BACK TO MY ANNIE~!" He begged wailing.
Erica almost couldn't help but feel a bit of sympathy now that she noticed actual tears coming out of his eyes amidst his rage...almost..
"Look Sweetums" Erica sighed. "We're doing this for both you and Annie's own good..nothing personal" she replied holding the blonde's head with both hands now. Her, Mikasa and Bertholt had already dug up small miniature graves throughout the area, burying Armin's parts in there. "FUCK YOU PINK BITCH!" Armin scowled leaking tears some more."FUCK YOU ALL! NO ONE TAKES MY ANNIE AWAY FROM ME!"
Mikasa snatched Armin from Erica's hands and threw him in a small trash bag, causing all sorts of muffled curses and obscenities to pour from the doll's towards a nearby tree she brutally smashed the doll's head against it's trunk repeatedly, earning muffled cries to escape from within the bag. "This is your home now you little bastard" Mikasa growled. "Now rot for all we care" she said dropping Armin in the three foot hole she dug in the ground.
Armin screamed from in the bag when the sounds of a shovel could be heard scooping up and throwing dirt over him."ANNIE! ANNIEEEE!"Armin screamed, wailed and cried hollering for his owner as he was left to decay under the cold ground. Once the two girls and one boy were finally finished with the deed, they grabbed their shovels and left, leaving poor Armin in the woods once again. Only this time he was scattered about in pieces.
"Please..help me Annie.." Armin sobbed quietly to himself.
(And that was Chapter 16 people! Don't for get to review!)
