Hello there! I am soooooo sorry that I haven't updated in so long, but I just really couldn't think of anything to write. Hopefully I can update more often now that ideas are starting to come to me, kinda. Anyway, here's the chapter. (Hope it doesn't suck too much.)
Jack ran his fingers over the frost that constantly blanketed his staff. "Okay, one more time; tell me why we're doing this?"
"Because it's fun" Tooth replied from her place next to him. The two of them were currently peering through a window of a dentist's office, and, as Tooth had said, were waiting for 'the show' to begin. Based off of the things he had heard over the years from kids complaining or even cowering from the dentist, what Jamie had told him, and his first meeting with Tooth, Jack wasn't so sure that he wanted to see what her definition of fun was. He glanced down at the table by the patient's chair that was currently packed with various shiny, sharp, and painful looking objects. Jack looked back up at Toothiana, who was hugging her knees and grinning in anticipation, then through the window again. "Are you sure that this is the place you were talking about when you said you were going to take me to see where you wind down?"
"Oh, well, it's not like you haven't seen worse. Like that stuff you read with Jamie; Jason the Killer."
"Jeff the Killer."
"Oh, whatever. And that other one, the thin guy."
"Slenderman?"
"That's the one."
"He's not even scary!"
"He doesn't have a face!"
"I thought you didn't read them?"
"Well, the two of you talk about them enough and- Oh oh oh look! They're starting!"
"… That… is the biggest needle I've ever seen."
"It is not."
"It is too."
"You're not old enough to know that."
"I'm not old enough to know that?"
"I- well- you know what I mean."
"No, actually I don't. Enlighten me Tooth, what did you mean?"
"Just shut up. Please."
"You sound like Bunny."
"You sound like you."
"Was that supposed to be an insult?"
"Well it wasn't supposed to be a compliment."
"Ooh, someone's touchy!"
"Jack-"
"That's my name, don't wear it out."
"Oh for the love of- just watch, would you?"
"Alright fine, but… what's that?"
"A drill."
"Where is he putting it?"
"Um… in her mouth, duh?"
"Why?"
"To drill holes."
"In her MOUTH?!"
"Well, yeah, because-"
"And you say that I watch screwed up stuff!"
"Because you DO!"
"And you don't?"
"What part of this is messed up?"
"'What part of this is messed up?' she asks. Oh I don't know, maybe the part where he PUTS HOLES IN PEOPLE!? And they pay him for it t- oh my snickers he has a knife!"
"Oh my snickers?"
"What's he doing with that?"
"Snickers?"
"Tooth, what is he doing?"
"You spend way too much time around those kids, you know that right?"
"That's it, I'm outta' here!"
"Jack… Jack it's not a knife it's a pencil, he's writing something down ice for brains. Jack, come back!"
Jack ignored her attempts at getting him to return and "wind down" with her as he zipped off to Jamie's house, not feeling brave enough to just nest in a random tree like he normally did. 'The kid wanted me to come for a sleepover sometime anyway' he thought as he glided along. 'Besides, Burgess is filled with dentists.'
So, how did I do? Please, please, please give me some prompts you guys; I could really use the help. I'll try to update more often. Please review!
