You hear Henry's laugh in the distance. You run to investigate what's causing him to laugh so loudly. That unnerving sound of his draws nearer, and you gasps in terror!
"Nya ha ha ha!" He laughs, rolling around on the grass like a dog. Hanging from the trees are your friends: Lissa, Olivia, Sumia, and Maribelle all bound up by their ankles to the tops of branches, swaying in the wind lifelessly. "Hehehehehe hey buddy! Here for the show?" "oh my gods! Henry what have you done?!" "What? Aw come on we're just having a little fun; my kind of fun!" He giggles more, "Henry! You-you've killed them all!" "I know isn't that awesome?! I haven't even gotten to the best part yet!" He jumps to his feet and starts to dance wildly, making rabid howls as he spin. Finally he flicks his wrists, and the corpses of your comrades begin to shake and reach for the ground! You hear the sound of tearing muscles and cracking bones, and you watch in horror as the skeletons of your allies squeeze out of their flesh like toothpaste! everyone's skeleton drops to the forest floor as their fleshy leftovers wave like gory flags. You fall to your knees and vomit in disgust, looking back up you begin to cry and scream, begging for Henry to stop this!
"Nayahahahaha I can't," he says "There's no getting off Mr. Bones' Wild Ride!" He flaps his arms up and flicks his wrists back and forth, making the trembling bones rise up and chatter their teeth together like laughter. You try crawling away but are too disgusted to move, only able to inch up against a tree in horror. "Aw look at them, so lively!" He proclaims, causing you to weep louder, then he puts his left hand over his head, you gasp as the bloodied skeletons mirror his movements perfectly. The Twisted Mind spins on one foot like a ballerina and hops around cheerily, he begins to chant: "Spooky Scary Skeleton sends shivers down your spiiiine! Shrieking skulls will shock your soul and seal your doom tonight!" and like demented backup dancers they circles him, jumping up and down on one foot twirling, sending blood flying with each spin. They join hands and spin around Henry as he giggles with gory glee. they fall to the ground in unison and make snow-angels around Henry, "This is the best day of my liiiiife!" Henry screams. they stand up, Lissa's corpse leans back as Maribelle's and Olivia's hold it up, Sumia's tears off two of her own ribs and play's Lissa like a xylophone. "Gods Henry please stop!" You cry out, but he doesn't care, he's too busy having the time of his life.
Henry hums and claps to the beat of this band of bones, yelling for more and more, but the skeletons stop playing and hang their fetid skulls in shame. You pause not understanding why they stopped... is it over? "Nyahahaha, oh I see now," Henry says, "This next act needs a fifth member!" The skeletons turn to you and chatter their teeth like demented cackles. Your eyes widen in fear "N-no... no no no no!" You plead, Henry snaps both his hands and begins to dance to a beat no one else can hear, making the skeletons creep towards you with lanky arms stretched. They hold onto your limbs with bloody fingers as you cry more. Henry does the chant again: "Spooky scary skeletons sends shivers down your spiiiiiiine!" You feel your skin stretch and your muscles peel off your skeleton, you yell so loud your vocal chords snap, only making it easier for your neck bones to spill out of you, just before you feel your own skull tear out of your face, you see Henry's sickening smile, a little childish wave, and his voice saying : "Bye bye."
