Disclaimer: No ownership whatsoever…
I am sooooo figging sorry!!!!!!! This is way overdue, I kno. I actually started this the day I posted my last chap for MoonlitMist, it's just that I've been busy (I kno that I overuse that excuse, but it's true ={) nd whenever I do get time for computer stuff, or log on to Microsoft word, I usually work on MM, or my upcoming Dark Visions story… 2 actually. One of my friends is making me do a tribute to two of the characters. :}
So this disclaimer right here is the only new thing I've typed for this. Honestly… I feel so ashamed 8(((
Halloween Special
"It's not poisoned, Morgead."
A pair of emerald-green eyes stared at Jezebel dubiously. "How do you know?"
"'Cause I've been eating lots of them," to prove her point, Jez opened the wrapper and popped a chocolate bon-bon in her mouth. She opened her lips while she chewed. "See? I'm not dead."
Morgead pretended to look disappointed. "Too bad."
Jez threw a lollipop at him.
They were together, again, at a desolate part of San Francisco, around the corner of the neighborhood park, in an alley they had recently marked as their hideout. It was stinky and dirty, with lots of garbage cans and litter and graffiti all over the place.
But it was theirs. Morgead and Jez loved that fact.
Today, Jez had been given some candy by Uncle Bracken before she made her way here. It was tasty, and she wanted to share it with Morgead right away, wondering what he'd think of it.
Jez eyed Morgead eyeing the tootsie roll in his fingers.
"You gonna eat it or what?"
He gave his signature glare. "I'm thinking about it."
"What's there to think about?" she demanded. "It's candy, Morgead, you just eat it."
"Why can't we just go attack some teenager like last year?" He licked his lips. "I bet this doesn't taste nearly as good as that did."
Blood. Of course Morgead was right, nothing could taste better to them than blood. It was just in their nature. Even sweet, rich chocolate wouldn't be able to tempt Jez as much as the oxygenated liquid did.
But she didn't want to admit it to Morgead.
Instead, she grabbed a king-sized Hershey's bar from her paper bag. Morgead watched with suspicious intent as she unwrapped its bindings.
Once the bar was fully bare, Jez held it up. "Think Morgead, you can either eat that little tootsie roll, or I can shove this down your throat."
Morgead kept staring.
"Oh come on, idiot, we don't have all night."
"Why not?"
"We're going trick-or-treating this year."
He looked at her oddly then, like she just suggested they go hang out with some humans. "What are you talking about? We're not trick-or-treating."
"But why?" Jez whined.
"Because," Morgead always managed to up his vampire factor when he was mad, it was like one of his many so called gifts. "It's just a stupid human holiday where they make fun of us." He played with the tootsie roll, throwing it up between his hands. "It's dumb."
"No it's not. You get free stuff."
Morgead looked at her. "We always get free stuff."
"Without getting caught."
He looked at her again, this time his fangs were glowing with his eyes.
"We never get caught."
Jez grumbled, "You're such a kill-joy, Morgead."
When he didn't reply, Jez ranted on. "Why can't we go just this once?"
"Because I said so."
"You're only ten Morgead, you're not the boss of me."
"But you're nine. So I am the boss of you."
Jez huffed out something that would have gotten her in trouble with Uncle Bracken.
Morgead, looking very haughty, decided to add more fuel to the fire.
"And besides, I don't even like candy."
Jez exploded.
"Well we'll have to change that, won't we?"
She gripped the Hershey bar in her hand, almost snapping it in half, and lunged at Morgead.
He was expecting a tackle, so he already had one knee up to dodge, but Jez didn't bother. She went in for the kill. She got the chocolate in his mouth.
Just as planned.
She saw his eyes widen to the max, literally bulging out of their sockets. For the first few seconds of shock, he stayed still, choking on it, getting ready to spit it out.
And then his eyes gleamed brighter than usual and Jez was ecstatic to see that he was swallowing.
"So?"
He looked at her. Jez frowned slightly. Morgead's expression was one of malice, meant to scare her. He must have hated the chocolate.
And then he spoke.
"Give me more or I'll kill you."
