SUPERNATURAL FURRIES
Chapter 25: The Monster at the End of this Book
"Is it true that Cluny's ghost is haunting this bookstore?" said Krystal.
"No," said Newton, the clerk. "That was just a rumor… wait a minute!"
"What?" said Renamon.
"Two vixens, one blue and one yellow… you do look an awful lot like Krystal and Renamon!"
"You know us?" said Renamon.
"From the books!" said Newton. "Carver Edlund's books! Supernatural! At the end of Book 21, No Rest for the Wicked, Renamon goes to hell. Are you actually THE Krystal and Renamon?"
"Yes," said Krystal.
"But how did Renamon get out of hell?" said Newton.
"Castiel," said Renamon. "He's an angel, but so far it seems that angels are jerks."
"We'd like to talk to this Carver Edlund and find out how he knows all about us," said Krystal.
"His real name is Chuck Shurley," said Newton.
Krystal and Renamon knocked on Chuck's door. Chuck opened the door. "Krystal? Renamon? What are you two doing here? I thought you were characters I made up!"
"It's all real," said Krystal.
"Really?" said Chuck. "That explains all those visions I've been having. Did you really go face to face with a flaming monster?"
"Yes," said Renamon.
"What about the time loop with the Trickster?"
"That too," said Krystal.
"I must be a god," said Chuck.
"No you're not," came a voice. Everyone turned to see Castiel. "You're a prophet of the Lord."
"A what?" said Chuck.
"That's how you've been seeing all those visions."
"You're Castiel, aren't you?" said Chuck.
"How do you know who he is if you haven't seen past me going to hell?" said Renamon.
"I have, I just haven't written about it," said Chuck. "Listen, Krystal, I was going to write myself into the story. And I've seen a vision. Lilith is coming to your motel. You and her will make a deal."
"What?" said Krystal.
"Well we must stop this deal," said Renamon. "We leave the motel tonight."
They got in their Leadra Ink Endol Omni Bob Dodge car and tried to drive it away, but came across a roadblock because a punk named Johnny fell over on his motorcycle, and were forced to head back to their motel for some sleep.
"I'm going to go and convince Castiel to help stop this," said Renamon, and she walked away.
"Castiel!" said Renamon.
"I'm right here," said Castiel.
"You have to stop Krystal from making that deal!" said Renamon.
"He's already had the vision," said Castiel. "It can't be stopped now."
"I never asked for anything!" said Renamon. "Can't you do this one thing?"
"Listen," said Castiel. "You have to understand why I can't help. Chuck is protected by an archangel. They're heaven's fiercest weapon. If a demon is in the same room as an archangel, then the demon will be destroyed by the most powerful wrath of heaven. Just so you understand why I can't help."
Lilith appeared, now in the form of a woman with blonde hair. "Hello Krystal," she said.
"Lilith!" said Krystal.
"I came to make a deal with you," said Lilith.
"I refuse," said Krystal.
"I haven't even told you what it is yet," said Lilith. "I'll stop breaking seals, and in return you stop going after me."
"What's the catch?" said Krystal.
"No catch," said Lilith. "See… I won't survive this war."
Just then Renamon and Chuck walked in.
A bright light started to shine in the room.
"There's an archangel here," said Renamon. "It'll tear you apart. If I were you I'd leave."
Lilith ran out the door as quickly as possible.
"Seriously?" said Renamon as they were driving out of town. "You didn't even think about taking it?"
"You were the one who was trying to stop it," said Krystal.
"Well, we know one thing," said Renamon. "Lilith's running. She's afraid. And she's right – she won't survive."
