Chapter 4: Twitches and Dead Bunny
The girl went on like this for years. The shadow guided her and helped her through her horrid life, eventually going away one day. She lived in a shack, with many basements and passageways. She loved luring people in her home, killing them in a terrible way and sacrificing them to demons. Before the shadow went away, he gave her a special medallion. It allowed her to open up a portal to the dead world, so she could throw the bodies in.
It was a typical day, and Nik was almost finished torturing her 56th victim. She looked at the disembered body. It was so bloody and broken, that you could not tell if it was a boy or a girl. She went to an old dusty shelf, scanning it with her full-black eyes and a red slit pupil. Finally, Nik found what she was looking for: A golden necklace with a red charm. Shadow had given to her, to sacrifice people to the demons. It was her duty as a 'demon server'. The process was simple: Every day or so Nik had to kill a victim, make a portal and throw the body in. The demons would react by growling in satisfaction. Shadow said that if they did this, they were pleased and that she had done her job well. Right when Nik was going to chat the magical spell to open the deadly portal, the medallion slipped from her blood-stained hands. It fell on one of her iron knives, cracking slightly. "No!" She said lously, picking up the precious medal. "Oh God," She muttered, "Oh crap." She put the medal on the table, cursing to herself. But, hopefully, it would still work Nik thought.
She put the necklace one, uttering a strange and frightning spell, and a blinding light came out of the charm. It was at first light and very beautiful, but turned red and dark. It made a huge portal on her wall, and Nik, confused, threw the body in the portal. She heard cackling, and took the necklace off to close the portal. However, when she did, it wouldn't go away. Nik strangly tried to close it with another back-up spell, but couldn't. The portal turned dark black and grey with swirls of light yellow and pink. Finally, two figures emerged from the circle. It disappeared, and the figures were light and white. They faded, and they're colors showed as the magical portal disappeared.
The two were small, only a foot or two each. The taller one was the shape of a black rabbit plushie, with no eye on the left and a grey button for an eye on the right. It had black and grey ears with a light grey stomach. The second, also a rabbit, was a light yellow with pink ears and blue eyes that were real. She looked like a plushie, but also real in many ways. She was wearing a pink necklace with the letters 'N P' on them.
"Who...Are you two?" Nik asked, dumbfounded. The black rabbit looked at her, concered. "Master, don't you remember me?" He asked, "I am Dead Bunny! Your plushie you had years ago!"
"AND NANA PUDDIN'!" The second one screeched.
"Dead bunny!" Nik said, going on her knees as she looked at the two. "I thought you were gone!"
"I was," Dead Bunny explained. "Remember when the Shadow was imporoved by you so much, and granted you a request? I was your only best friend, and you wanted to make me alive. So he did. But, I aged and died, passing onto the demon world. There I met Twitches."
"My nickname is nana puddin'!" Twitches said confidently while drooling, earning a strange look from Nik. "Go on," The homicidal girl said. "Well," Dead Bunny said, "She was a real rabbit. I liked her and decided to give her half my spirit. So now she's like a plushie and can talk, like me!" He pasued for a moment, then said. "SHE'S MEH GIRLFRIEND!"
Nik stared at him. "Umm...Your what?"
"Sorry," He muttered, blushing. "You might say demons can't love, so that's why I gave her half my spirit. So I'm only half demon, meaning I can love. I also needed another half, so I took half her personality. I apologize for my sudden outbursts."
"THAT MEANS HE KNOWS NANA PUDDIN' TOO!" Twitches yelled, dancing around Nik and adding, "Nana puddin gewwwwwd..."
"Oh," Nik said, looking at the two. "Well, I'm glad your here. It's just, how did you get here? Did the charm backfire when it cracked?" Dead Bunny nodded. "I supposed so."
"Is there anyway I can fix it?" Nik asked while watching Twitches get out a cup of banana pudding. She got out a silver spoon, and literlly ripped off the top and started eating with her tounge, dissing the spoon. "Not that I know of," Dead Bunny replied, smiling at Twitch's strange behavior. "Can you still contact Shadow? Maybe he knows."
Nik shook her head. "I have not seen him in over nine years," She sighed, and picked up her medallion and shook of Twitches who was hanging on it by her tounge. Twitches fell on her face, saying, "Sorry, there was a lil spot of nana puuuuuuudin...Nana gewwwd..."
Nik glared at Dead Bunny, "What do you see in her?" Dead Bunny shrugged. "Ehh..I DUNNO!" He said in a familiar voice, and danced an Irish jig with Twitches. When they were done after a few minutes, Dead Bunny said, "Can we live here, master? Twitches and I can't go back to the Demon World once we've been taken out, and we hated it there."
"THEY TOOK AWAY MAH PUDDIN'!" Twitches screeched, crying and laughing herself to tears. "YUM." Nik just stared at her for the fourth time, then looked down at her beloved stuffed rabbit. "Okay," She said. "But just keep your bedrooms as far away as mine."
Dead Bunny fiddeled with his black, dark ear nervously. "Um," He muttered. "Uh, we can't really have our own bedroom...We'll just take a few pillow cases and go in your closest, mmkay?"
"Okay," Nik nodded, smiling for once in a very long time. "But I have a question. When I'm sacrificing to the demons, will more spirits like you come out?" Dead Bunny looked at his master. "I don't know...Maybe a few. Only the ones who would die again to get out." He smiled, and went off with Twitches to Nik's closet while singing The Macarina in French.
