Chapter 01 Splitting ways
I woke up the next morning when I reached out for my new husband. I felt his side of the bed empty. I cracked open an eye when I heard shouting outside. I peek out the left window to see what all the fuss was about. Everyone seemed to be running around painting the bus a white color with red stripes with Special needs camp written on the side between the strips. Almost everyone was packing. I decided to get dressed and see what was going on. I made my way out and over to Luda Mae. "What is going on and what is all the fighting about?" I asked her. "Hey Sweetcheeks. We decided the people going could use the bus to travel across country." "Wait I thought we were all going? Who wants to stay behind? It won't be safe for anyone to be left behind"
Luda Mae gives a deep sigh. "Sweetcheeks come walk with me to the creek we need to have a talk." I nod my head and grab her hand like I did when I was younger. "The child I am not as young as I used to be, I don't want to leave Texas this is my home and I am comfortable here. I do not want to leave the rest of the family behind either. It does sound like it is going to be a grand adventure I would rather stay here."
"Who else wants to..." "I told you Erin go and get packed you and Jennifer both we are leaving soon!" "We don not want to go Hoyt. IN fact, we both want a divorce! You and your family of freaks made us the same way! We are sick and tired of living this way! How could you think we loved you! Please Hamas is a facing retard and Max might as well be his son! He's a big a freak as he!" "Well, if you thought that way, why did you stay!?" " Hmm well lets see could it be because you fuck heads would have eaten us! Plus, you had Sweetcheeks back then! How could we leave her alone here?! We obviously came too late because look at the freak she married!" I saw red and grabbed my knife from my seat and looked at Luda Mae who looked resigned and nodded her head once to me.
I entered the shadows staying as quiet as possible. I say Baby is doing the same for Jennifer. I grabbed Erin by the hair and kicked behind her knees "Who do you think you are talking about my family like that!? You who I welcomed into this family say that about Tommy and Max?" They both started screaming hysterically. I pulled her hair tighter "I asked you a question!" "Please Sweet Cheeks I did not mean it, I just did not want to leave my home, please think of our children!" "I am, Why should they have to put up with your prejudices? You don't want to leave? Fine I grant you your request!" I then slit her throat and her blood gushed over Uncle Hoyt's face as he smiled. I pushed her down onto the ground before stabbing her through the back and into her heart.
I sighed before sitting down hard. I start to cry silently when I felt arms pull me back into a hard chest. I snuggled into Otis and hid my face in his neck. "Why Otis? I thought of them as family. I gave them my family." I could not get anything else out as I saw RJ drags Erin into the house. With Tiny does the same with the body of Jennifer. Otis helped me to my feet when Uncle Hoyt gathered me into a big hug. "Thank you Sweetcheeks. Thank you for standing up for us like that." I hugged him back and cried a bit more before looking for Tommy hoping he would forgive me. I saw him next to the house I saw his eyes looked sad and I turned away to go hide. He sprung forwards abed hugged me to him before putting me on his shoulder. I tapped his mask in fiction before looking at my family. "We need to have a meeting everyone. We also need to gather up all the bodies and parts except the really healthy ones which will need to be tied up and hamstrung so that they cannot escape. Now please." Tommy took me to the swing and started to push me while Otis sat next to the base of the tree. I hated the thought of my family parting ways, but I would much rather they be happy. I wondered who all would decide to stay with the extended family with Luda Mae. I sighed deeply when I saw people start to gather round Tommy hold his kid with Max.
"It has been brought to my attention some want to stay here with the extended family. They will not be able to stay in this house because we will have to set it into an inferno to destroy the whole house, there is to much evidence throughout the whole house to keep it standing. Grandma wants to go live with the cousins. Who else wants to stay in Texas please do not think we will be mad. I just want you to be happy. If you want to stay please go and stand by Grandma." RJ, the coach, Baby, and Max went to stand with Luda Mae while I watched with heart break. Tiny went to stand there too, but Baby was against it. "Tiny I need you to stay with Blood and Otis to keep them and any child they have safe I want to stay in the state where Mama and Daddy gave their lives to keep us safe and free. I also want to stay with RJ that way the family will continue no matter where we are. Can you do that for me Tiny? Keep them safe?" Tiny nods his head while crying and goes to stand by Uncle Hoyt.
Tex looked undecided until he saw me watching him with heart broken eyes at the thought of losing any more family. He sighs and goes to stand with Uncle Hoyt. I sigh deeply. "So Grandma RJ Coach Baby and Max want to stay here. Uncle Hoyt sighs I want my kids to stay here. They are not as healthy as I would like and I know Mama will take care of them along with Max." I sniffle at the thought of breaking Uncle Hoyt from his springs. He looked at me. "Sweetcheeeks it is best this way. Tommy needs Lilian and I am not much of a father anyways. We will write and talk to them on the phone often. It is better for them to stay." I nod my head and l looked at the other group. "Okay, let's get packing. We need to keep things separated in different parts of the undercarriage so that. It will be easier that way." Once I spoke everyone got busy. I look at Luda Mae. " The gentlemen tied up go with you and the others. It will not last forever, but it is a start and I know the cousins will appreciate it a lot. We will have to live on regular food for the foreseeable future." Luda Mae nodded her head while Tommy started to load up the human cargo in the back of the bus. Otis comes and kisses my cheek, carrying our things which I put into the undercarriage. Along with the other stuff separated into piles.
I pull Otis into a deep searing kiss my tongue duelling with his. I smile into his lips. "Otis you okay? The rest of your family is splitting up because of me after all." Otis sighs and shakes his head no. "I am fine Blood. They are grown ups and can make their own choices. I know they will keep each other safe. Plus, I have you and Tiny so I am not losing everyone. One day we will have our own springs after all." I grin happily before getting back to work. Once finished, I start collecting anything burnable soaked in different chemicals before making a line of gasoline and crude oil mixture out of the house. I see Tommy with a lighter and he lights some brush before looking at anyone. We all nod and he let it drop we watch our house start to burn. It is a raging inferno before I shove anyone into the bus. I look out the window while Uncle Hoyt heads off to the cousin's house To let off some of our passengers. I start to hum softly when Baby sits down next to me and pulls me close. "Sis, I love you to death you little bitch. Do not think I am leaving because of you. I feel better in Texas. Plus RJ needs someone watching his back. Otis has you now. While I know that I will always be needed I will miss you something fierce." I cry into her shoulders and can only nod. We stop by the station while we ransack the place to get everything we can use from it. We know it will be split into half so that we do not leave the others completely helpless. Once done Tex burns down the Station as well. We head out again and reach our cousins in short order.
Once Luda Mae tells them what is going on we start to unload when Grandma pulls me aside. "I know you like to wear black when doing new things, but I want you to wear this dress for me until a couple states away. If you are somehow caught You need to look as innocent as you can. Can you do that for me Sweetcheeks?" I only nod while I run into the bathroom to change. Otis follows me up to keep an eye on me. I smile at him before pointing at the hole in the wall where my cousins can be peeping toms. He stands in front of the hole while I change quickly and grabbing his hand and skipping down the stairs. I stop at the bottom and see the others carrying things on. I start to cry again when I am in the middle of a huge group hug, people telling me thank you for not taking all the family with me. Promises to keep them safe and whatnot. I can only nod my head before crying harder. I see Tommy and Tiny carrying in the kids and hand them over to the cousins. I go over and Tap, Tommy, who reaches down and picks me up. I snuggle close and apologize. He taps my head in reprimand to let me know it is their choice and to stop blaming myself. I only nod before Pasing me over to the others for hugs goodbye. Once I finished hugging Luda Mae and Baby and RJ again, they push me to Otis, who picks me up and carries me to the bus where everyone else is waiting for me. I smile sheepishly before opening the window and waving at everyone as we drive away. I somehow knew I would not be seeing them again, not in person anyways.
CHPTER 02 THE START OF THE JOURNEY
I curl up into a ball and soon fin myself dozing while the rest keep talking about what we will need to do now. I hear mention of stopping at a mall and getting more things we will need. I know I should have felt weirded out to be the only girl other than Lilian but I only felt safe these guys would put down their lives for us. I woke up later and see Tommy and Tiny sleeping on each other with Lilian in between them. I poke Otis and point and he snickers. "Think they are in love?" I snicker and no my head. "They make a perfect couple don't they?" Otis nods his head. "They will know what is going on with each other and act accordingly." I spot the exit for the Mall and point it out to Uncle Hoyt who just nods his head. We pull off the exit and hand all the money to Uncle Hoyt who's eye bugs out slightly. "My family keeps putting money into my account and I have my card too if we need it. I think we should save the cash for emergencies. "Smart thinking Sweetcheeks." I start to think before handing my card to Otis. "It would be weird that a kid like me is in charge of it. It will draw unwanted attention." Everyone nods than cheers as we pull into the mall we cheer loudly. Tex grabs me from behind before picking me up. Otis looks murderous. "Otis do not be mad. Think about it, would we be able to keep our hands off each other if you carried me?" He shakes his head no and I smile at him. Uncle Hoyt pretends to give us a lecture on how to behave in the mall and not separate.
I motion for Tiny and Tommy to stay on the bus until I can get them new masks. They nod and stay seated. I suddenly have a bright idea and start singing a camp song and I look at Otis to pick it up along with everyone else other than Uncle Hoyt and Tex who was supposedly the camp counselors in charge. Once we get in Uncle Hoyt looked lost. I speak up proudly if a bit slow. "I have the list here Sir." I then beam at him as he catches on. "Would you like to walk for a bit Sweet? You can hold my hand and we can get the things on the list. I smile broadly and wiggle to get down as soon as I do I pretend to try and run away in excitement when Uncle Hoyt caught me and held my hand. I pouted up at him before pointing to the store we need. I see Otis out of the corner of my eye handing the card to Tex. He acts belligerently until I whimpered and held my hand out to him as well. "Hold my hand Buddy." I say in a pleading sweet voice. He looks put out before Uncle Hoyt gives him a look and he complies. I smile happily and start to skip and pull them in the direction we need. We quickly shop for clothes and other things we will need before deciding we will stop at a grocery store to pick up more food and the like. I make myself turn red when I notice some ladies watching. "I tug on both the hands holding me before bursting out in tears. I stammer out that I need some personal stuff as well. They looked confused and I blushed harder. "I need some tampons and some Midol." They lose their cool and start to bluster and look embarrassed while I make my lip wobble like I am going to cry. One of the ladies laugh at us before motioning me over. I pretend to look scared before heading over. "Here I'll take you over to get the stuff you need, child, we don't want the men to be in on our secrets right?" I nod my head shyly before Hoyt gives me 60. "Get enough for the 4 months we will be camping okay?"
I nod happily before dropping the money and crying again. A the lady giggles and helps me to pick it up and sees an ugly pink bag that she buys for me to put the money in. I pretend to like it while imagining ways to cut her head off and shoving it down there. We get the things I will need and head back to my group. I see a bunch of guys surrounding my family making fun of them. I get angry and run up and kick whom I supposed to be the leader in the back of the knee. I pretend to cry and hold onto his neck and hair calling him mean. I whisper into his ear "You and your friend stay here any longer and I will slit your throat and cut out your tongue to shove up your ass. Do you comprehend what I am saying." He nods once before struggling to get up I pretend he threw me off of him and cry louder. He looks at me and decides to apologize thinking he hurt me no matter the death threats. I look out of the corner of my eye and see the last people I expected to see. My eyes widen in surprise and I -go deathly white. I start to shake when Otis is there looking around to see what has me spooked. Not knowing why I am acting this way he picks me up and glares at the people that had been "picking on them" and told the others to bring the stuff so we could go camping! We make our way out while I hold my hand out beseechingly. They do not follow and I cry and wiggle to get down to go and run in hiding. Otis squeezes me tighter and I bury my head in his neck.
All of a sudden I feel someone tugging my locks and there they are! I cry out in excitement and reach out again, only to be stuck in the middle of a tug of war with Otis not giving me up at all. I kiss him on his cheek since we are still in public and yell out "Mickey! Daddy!" Once he realized these are some more family members he let me go and Michael took me onto his shoulder before heading off to a picnic table, and sat with me on his lap. I see Jackson just watching me and I know he is still very very upset with me. I cry harder and harder until I start to hyperventilate which got Jackson moving and handing me a paper bag. He sits next to me and rubs my head. Michael starts to shake before she bursts out laughing "Not even 10 minutes and you gave in. I win the bet!" I look shocked at Michael talking. He whispers in my ear the demons are gone." I nod my head at him and hug him tightly. I feel Jackson reach out and settle me on his lap.
I struggle for a bit, but now he is not letting me go. "Can you understand why I did what I did?" I felt him nod into my hair. "It does not mean I have to like it and if you ever and I mean ever, do that again, you will be grounded until your 30." I snicker quietly and realized something that made me squirm. "Um, Dad? Mickey? I kind of have to tell you something." I whisper out softly. I give a deep sigh when "I would appreciate you getting your hands off of my wife now you bastards!" I groan in my throat when Mickey stiffens up along with Jackson. "OTIS! I was going to break it to them more gently!" PTOs stuck his tongue out at me before laughing at my discomfort. I mutter jerk. "You," said Jackson slowly, "You are saying you are married to my 13 year old daughter?" Otis smirks some more while nodding his head. I struggle to get out of Jackson's hold to beat him senseless I notice Uncle Hoyt, along with Tex laughing their heads off. I see Tommy and Tiny getting agitated and I know this can turn bad fast. "QUIET!" I yell loudly. Everyone stiffens and I tap Jackson's face to get him to let me down.
I sigh and count to 10. "Otis I love you with all my heart, but you are a real asshole right now, if I was you I would make my way back to the bus and get Lilian before tommy and tiny leave her alone!" Otis glares at me. "If you ever want to get laid again in the next 5 years move it now!" He gulps and takes off. I look at Uncle Hoyt and Tex. "Come here and let me introduce you all. There is to be NO blood shed. Daddy? This is Uncle Hoyt and Cousin Tex the big men coming this way are Tommy and Tiny. Guys? These are my Dad Jackson and my Step Dad Michael. TOMMY! TINY! We are all family here so behave. They look put out before nodding and glaring some more. I go over and Tommy picks me up while Tiny taps my head a bit hard to let me know he was upset. He had been charged to look after me after all. "Tiny I was only ever in danger of getting my ass spanked. You did not break your promise okay?" He nods slowly before heading back to the bus. Tommy hugs me before sitting me down. He also goes back to the bus. All of a sudden there was a big explosion and I was thrown off my feet and would have met the asphalt if Jackson had not grabbed me as fast as he had. "What the fuck was that!?" Jackson looks sheepish. "Um, my car?" I just stare at him. "It took out the target?" I just look before sighing, "okay people lets move! We will have cops inbound we need to leave now!" we head quickly to the bus me pulling Dad and Mickey behind me. We all sit down as Uncle Hoyt pulls out of the parking lot quickly. I go through the bags that I see and pull out the masks for Tommy and Tiny, "You guys need to wear these instead of your normal ones until we get to where we are going okay?" They nod and put them on. I turn around and head back to the front to sit next to Otis, who I just knows is pouting. I curl up next to him and lick his neck. He flashes a small smile before pulling me into his side more.
I turn to Jackson and Mickey "So why the big boom?" Jackson looks sheepish. "Weeeeellll I might be retired now..." I grin at him. "So what was that one last job?" He nods his head. "Well want to meet your brother Chucky and my best friend Jason? We are thinking of settling there until things cool down in Texas." Jackson looks surprised before he nods his head. I cheer loudly when I see cops heading towards the mall. "I think we should wait till the next state to do the grocery shopping. Uncle Hoyt when you get tired switch places with Dad I... Am going to take a nap!" I lay down as best as I can with my lap in Otis's lap. He leans down and kisses me deeply before I drift off.
Chapter 03 Almost there!
I look excitedly at the window and start to bounce once again. Everyone gives a deep sigh and looks at me with amusement. "We're almost there! I can't wait to see UNCLE CHUCKY AND THEM AGAIN!" "Yes, we know!" Everyone shouts back, I just stick my tongue out before looking out the window. WELCOME TO HACKENSACK" I grin again before giving Jackson directions. I see my old house and as soon as the bus stops I am pounding on the door to be let out. Jackson lets the door open and I fall out, leaning on the curb and grass. I do not even notice the pain or blood before I run to the house pounding on the door and ringing the bell still bouncing. "HEY OPEN THE DOOR RIGHT NOW OR I AM GOING TO KNOCK IT DOWN!" I hear some footsteps and a shout of surprise as the door is yanked open and I am pulled to a solid chest and squashed next to a cat. "DOE!" I pet him and rub his head as Chucky cries into my hair, hugging me tightly. "Blood, Blood. Blood. Blood." He kept chanting my name over and over again. "I missed you Uncle Chucky. You and Doe both." I look around for Tiffany and the twins, but noticed how the house is dark. "Where are they Uncle Chucky?" He sighs and still cries, saying my name over and over. I start to get really worried.
"Charles Lee Ray! Where are they?" "They left me Blood. I slipped while you were gone and Tiff blamed me for loving you more than my own family. They moved to California. If I ever see them again, I will kill them." I wondered how long he had been alone. The tie-in with Uncle Chucky, he hates being alone. I pull him closer to me as I snuggle in deeply. I hear Jackson beep the horn and I sigh. I continue to look around "Uncle Chucky I can't stay." He holds me tighter and starts to squeeze my breath out of me. "Don't leave me too Blood. Please don't, " I sigh and wiggle a bit "Uncle Chucky I am sure you saw the news. I can't stay here..."
"NOO I love you Bllood don't leave me!" "Come with us Uncle Chucky, I would love to have you come. I would be one more family member with me." He pulls back slightly to make sure I was serious. He seems to guess I am and runs around packing the things he wants to take. The us honks again and I wave behind me. I see him struggling to carry everything so I go to help by grabbing the 4 small ones. He brings the 3 largest ones and carries them to the bus. We look at the house and sigh. We pack hem into the under carriage before heading in once again. I sigh as I walk through the house carrying Doe. I notice a smell and sigh, I whistle shrilly. Tiny and Tommy come in "Guys put the bodies in the cellar, please we'll need to burn the house down." They nod while I make sure the pilot light is out before turning on the burners and oven I whistle again and make sure everyone is out of the house. I make it to the bus with Doe and notice Uncle Chucky light a cigarette before tossing it behind him. He makes his way to the bus before BOOM! The house blows up and starts to burn. Uncle Chucky and I watch it burn out of the window with tears streaming down our faces.
Otis picks me up and puts me on his lap. "You sure do cry a lot Blood. I snicker and grin through my tears "Uncle Chucky this is my husband Otis. Otis this is my uncle Charles Lee Ray is otherwise known as Chucky. They shake hands and I can tell they are trying to hurt one another I sigh deeply. "Guy stops it, I am not a piece of meat to fight over!" they grin at me before starting to tickle me. I laugh and wiggle and giggle until I can hardly breathe. I am hugged between both of them not noticing the looks passing between the two. I doze off to sleep.
I wake up a couple hours later when I notice where we are. "Pull into the next exit! We will need to get lots of things before we make it to our destination! We'll be holed up for a while so we need to get them now. No alcohol! At all. I cannot guarantee your safety until I see Jason again!" Everyone nods before we start to sing camp songs before heading into the store. Jackson was carrying me this time. I smile shyly at everyone while waving and blushing. We get a grocery cart a piece "Belle do you want to push your own cart?" Jackson asks me slowly. I nod my head and grin brighter, making everyone watching us snicker. When I saw someone point at Tommy and Tiny and call them freaks I burst out in tears making everyone glare at the creeps.
I ran and hid behind Tiny and Tommy for a bit when the creeps left I came out of hiding wiping my tears. Everyone patted my head while offering to show me around to get eh things we might need. I smile brightly and nod my head. Once done, we check out and make our way to the bus to pack them up when I notice the creeps glaring at me. I sigh and stick my tongue out of them before heading onto the bus. I snicker when I saw them get into their car. I just knew I had not seen the last of them. We head out once again and headed to the interstate I saw the car following us. "I wonder if they will follow us all the way to camp?" I asked. "No one touches them. It is an easy way to bring Jaosn out." They nod and start to laugh. I curl up next to Tex and grab a quick nap. With everyone smiling and laughing quietly at the stupid creeps.
I was thinking of putting Camp in this segment, but decided against it. I hope everyone once again enjoyed this segment it was kind of hard to write. I think the next segment plus an epilogue is all that is left.
