This story has quickly become my most popular one XD

Thanks everyone!

A song for this chapter...we need something rapid. Try 'Hocus Pocus' by Helloween.

Oh, and a shout out to Iluvpurpleandblack99 for figuring out my little question in chapter 5. Congrats!


Duncan wasted no time. He was already in the throws of battle. A mob of undead suged forward, surrounding him on all sides. They all tried to grab at him, tearing at him with claws and biting with gnashing teeth. Like an engine of destruction, Duncan was taking this all and winning. He held out the chainsaw, spinning his entire body in an arcing motion. A storm of body parts and gallons of the red stuff were sent flying everywhere near the Punk's tornado-ing self. He let out a war cry, spinning even faster.

Gwen clapped her hands, actually reveling in the gory sight before her."My Jester does know how to entertain."She smirked.

"I am so glad it pleases you my Queen. I aim to fufill your every desire..."Doctor West snapped his fingers, using his control over the supernatural to intensify the battle even further.

The zombies rushed Duncan with even more vigor, actually halting his twisting attack. They piled on top of him in a decaying heap, dozens of the creatures adding their weight to crush Duncan beneath. He struggled, grunting and straining to push them off, but more and more came onto him.

After a minute or so of no movement, it seemed Duncan had perished underneath.

"Aw...I was expecting so much more."Gwen leaned on the arm of the throne, looking rather bored now."Do not despair my Queen, we'll have a new jester in no time."Doctor West assured her, adding a small laugh afterwards.

A small grunt shattered West's confidence. A louder grunt, then another primal shout. The mountain of dead that had fallen on top of him was slowly rising up. Soon Duncan was holding it up over him."Eat it, West!"He shouted. With another shout, he tossed the mass of zombies straight at the Doctor. Flying bodies fell through the air, piling up around the throne of bones."Oh Shit..."Duncan muttered, mentally facepalming. Gwen was right next to West...

A hand on his shoulder turned him around. He saw a furious Gwen facing him, a smug Doctor West behind her. He didn't know how the Doctor had done it, but had somehow teleported behind him.

His thoughts were interrupted by Gwen grabbing him a strangle hold, her fist clenched tightly around his neck."Hey...didn't know you were so...Gack...strong!"He managed to choke out, trying to make the situation lightly humorous. No such luck, Gwen's grip tightened.

"How dare you?"She brought his face close to hers, her eyes were beginning to show a dark glow around them."I am the Queen! You will treat me with respect!"

"If you weren't an all-powerful psychopath right now, is there a chance we could kiss?"Duncan chuckled, only to gag again.

"Just shut up, Duncan-boy..."The Terror Mask sighed.

Gwen released her deathgrip on him, only to blast him away with one of the wispy tendrils of energy that sprang up out of her skin. Duncan flew through the air, smacking into a wall across the ballroom with a heavy thud."I'll take that as a no..."He stood up rubbing his head.

"West!"Gwen commanded, and the Doctor dutifully walked up to her side."I want this man gone from my sanctuary. He is not even allowed to set foot on it again..."

West nodded, grinning his toothless grin at Duncan."Your wish is my command, Majesty."He replied.

"Nice try boys."He said before snapping his fingers, making Duncan vanish.

West snapped his fingers once more, and all the zombies, even the dismembered ones from Duncan's assault, stood up, quickly getting as far away as they could from their Queen's throne of bones. Gwen approached the throne, sitting down once more.

"My Queen, we have plans to carry out..."West laughed, moving to the right side of the throne. Gwen acknowledged him with a small wave."Yes, I know. And what do we need for those plans?"She asked, looking bored once more, examining her nails as West spoke.

"We need the innocent blood of twelve to sacrifice to you."He replied.

"How innocent?"Gwen seemed amused now.

"Virgin-innocent."

She chuckled.


Duncan

It was like something out of a cartoon mostly. One second the air shimmered, the next, Duncan popped up out of nowhere, landing on the ground flat on his face. He stood up, shaking grass and dirt off of him. He looked up to see he was on the outskirts of the forest now. He growled, punching a nearby tree, leaving his fist imprint deep in the bark."I was SO close!"He punched the tree again, another deep imprint.

"Slow down Duncan-boy, what did the tree ever do to you?"The Terror Mask tried to calm him down.

"Shouldn't you be mad too? The Doc was right there!"Duncan shouted, already walking back into the forest to the Mansion.

"I am...but don't worry, West will get his dues very soon."The Mask replied.

Duncan kept walking, but smacked straight into the invisible. He placed his hand forward, rubbing something solid but unseen."What's up with this barrier?"

"The Doctor's keeping you out of the Mansion for now...didn't you hear Queenie's commands?"The Mask forced Duncan to turn around and start walking towards the town.

"Until then, we have some murders to stop."It added.

Duncan stopped short."Murders? I'm no stranger to crime, but who would the Doctor murder?"

"I know his plans...he needs the spilled blood of twelve innocent virgins to fully power Gwen."

As the mask spoke, a shriek came up from inside the forest. Looking to the starry sky, Duncan saw twelve blurs whiz through the air, heading into the town, each one hunting for a victim."We're going to be very busy for the rest of the night..."Duncan made sure the chainsaw on his back was secure, and he ran off in the direction of the ghosts that seeked out innocent blood.
