Ch. 6 the Real Monster
There's something inside me
It's, it's coming out
I feel like killing you
Let loose all the anger, held back too long
By blood runs cold
--Cannibal Corpse, Hammer Smashed Face
It was the next day, Courage kept thinking about what he did, and how good it felt.
He lied on the carpet as he usually did, he looked at the now dusty rocking chair…the chair that now ceased to rock, after a few minuets of reminiscing the phone rang, Eustace quickly picked it up and yelled.
"We 'aint got no pho-oh Ma its you, huh…right now? Fine!"
He hung up and starred at Courage.
"I need to go to me Ma's, and I 'aint goin' alone, come on ya stupid dog."
Eustace tied courage to the leash and dragged him to the old pickup truck, Courage was feeling satisfied, the farmer was leading him right to the next person, the next person to kill.
After a few minuets of driving they arrived at the old worn out trailer, Eustace rang the doorbell and his mother answered, she looked at Courage and a big smile came across her face.
"Why hello Courage, so good to see you." she said in a sweet tone.
Instead of his worried timid look, he starred straight into her eyes, then she turned to Eustace.
"Oh, here there stupid boy, what are you doing here?"
"You called me over…"
"Oh yea…my air conditioner broke…fix it ya stupid boy."
He grumbled and walked around the trailer, Ma and Courage went inside.
"I'll be right back, just make yourself at home."
She patted him and went to another room, he was disgusted that she touched him, while she was gone Courage searched the trailer for a "weapon", violent thoughts ran through his head, and started felling things he never felt before…the thrill of the kill.
He walked into the kitchen and spotted a knife on a cutting board, he smiled and grabbed it.
"Yes…this will do just fine."
As he walked out, he herd Ma talking on the phone.
"Don't worry, he's here right now…he did WHAT…both of them…your sure…fine, just leave him to me."
She hung up the phone and turned around, and right in front of her was Courage, he starred with a vicious look, and she was unaware of the deadly weapon behind him.
"So, you killed them both…didn't you Courage?" he slowly nodded.
"And now you're after me…you turned into a real MONSTER!"
Courage started growling and slowly walked closer, his paw tightened the handle of the knife.
"I'm not the monster here…" he said with anger in his voice "…YOU ARE!"
He quickly swatted her wig, exposing her pale fleshy head.
"AH, OH-NO…I'M UGLY!" then she began to bawl like a child.
"Hehehehe…then let me end your MISERY!"
Courage swiftly rose the knife and plunged it deep into Ma's skull, horrendous cracking sounds came with a ocean mist of blood, he pushed it deeper till the blade was fully lodged into the brain, then she limped over a human stump, her now lifeless eyes starred blankly into nothingness.
Courage then laughed hysterically and pulled the knife out, bits of grey matter were stuck on the jagged ends.
"Oh my what a mess, I guess you're next Katz…I"LL MAKE YOU SUFFER!"
