Critter Volume 3 Chapter 6 : Good Riddance



Bon Temps

Kyle lay on the couch, his eyes starred into the light bulb above him. He knew inside that whatever had been released from that locket, had affected him in a negative way. Kyle had little control over his body, inside he could think for himself but on the outside he was becoming a zombie. He closed his eyes and said a prayer. His mother always taught him that the biggest of problems could be solved with faith. He opened his eyes; a woman was floating above him. He could see a bright light and someone with long hair wearing a white dress. The face was over exposed, he couldn’t make it out. The light began to fade, Julia appeared. “Thank you, Kyle” she said as she entered through Kyle’s mouth. Kyle’s eyes closed and then re-opened. Julia had taken over; she was finally in the flesh. Here to finish what she started. Her first task was to obtain Clayton. Once she had him, Kelly would do anything to get him back.

Clayton sat with Kelly at Mitch’s Bar & Grill “so what do you think all this means?” asks Kelly “well he said “exorcismos, does that mean exorcism? It sure sounded like that” Clayton explained “performing an exorcism would mean that a spirit is inside Kyle, and I just refuse to believe that” replied Kelly “we’ve seen weirder things” added Clayton “Oh hold on, I just got a text from Kyle. I’m feeling a lot better; can you meet me at the cemetery? I’m here now at Mitch and Laurens grave” Clayton looked up at Kelly “see, there you go. He seems fine!” she said. Clayton through his coat on “I’m gunna go see if he’s okay, wanna come?” he asked Kelly “I can’t remember? I have Chandra’s birthday tonight, she rented a limo” Kelly giggled, “let me know how it goes okay?” Clayton nodded and left the restaurant.

Clayton pulls up to the grave site “KYLE!?” he shouted, but couldn’t see anyone. He exited his car and walked over to Lauren’s grave, no sign of Kyle. “Over here” he heard faintly in the distance “Kyle where are you?” he yelled again. The sound was coming from beyond Warrens grave, Clayton went to find his friend. He came across a freshly dug grave, inside was a coffin “what the fuck?” Clayton whispered. “Hi” he heard from behind him, Clayton turned around and saw Kyle standing with a shovel, he smacked Clayton over the head sending him falling into the coffin. Kyle jumped down and placed him firmly inside. He shut the door and locked it with a padlock. “KYLE!” screamed Clayton as he began burying the grave. “I can’t have you running around, I’ll need you” he said as he put the final load of dirt on top. Clayton was completely underground.

Kelly heard the screams of her friends from the road in front of her house. “Coming” she yelled as she grabbed her purse of the table and ran out the door. She hopped into the limo and was greeted by her friends Tara, Chandra and Simone. “HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHANDRA!” she yelled as she pulled out a bottle of champagne. The girls laughed and raised their glasses to the sky. “Here’s to a good night” she yelled. The cab driver was taking them to a nightclub in town. One of the only cubs in this area.

They were just passing over a bridge when the limo came to a halt “what’s going on?” yelled Chandra to the limo driver “there’s someone standing in the road” he replied “just go around them” replied Simone. Kelly peeked her head out, it was Kyle standing in the road. “That’s Kyle, I know him!” yelled Kelly “hold on I’ll go see what he wants. Kelly went to open her door and it wouldn’t open. Suddenly the car screeched over an inch. “WHAT WAS THAT” yelled Tara. Kelly looked up at Kyle, she didn’t think it was possible, but it didn’t seem like this was really Kyle. Kyle raised his hands and the limo began sliding over to the edge of the bridge. The girls were screaming. The bridge fell about 200 feet to the ground through trees. The limo stopped moving. Kelly brushed a tear away from her trembling face, she knew it was not over. The limo then flipped upside down and smashed through the wall on the bridge. It was half off the bridge when Kyle smashed through the window and grabbed Kelly’s legs. He began pulling her out. She was screaming for her friends and grabbing things to pull herself back in. Chandra reached out for her friend but it was too late. Kelly was pulled out of the limo. Kyle tossed her on the rain soaked pavement he then turned to the limo and kicked it off the edge. “KELLY!” screamed Chandra as the limo went over. It crashed through trees and broke branches but came to a stop when it landed in a massive tree with hundreds of branches. Kelly screamed for her friends. Kyle turned to Kelly “who are you” she asked. Kyle looked at her and began to sing. “Julia” she whispered.

Traci had been teaching Ashley small spells that she can use in self-defense or as protection from certain creatures. “I really didn’t think you were gunna shoot him” Traci said as she was sifting through a book for another spell. “I did what I had to do” said Ashley as she was practicing a spell. She was using a spell that shot electricity from her fingers. “I’ve never felt anything like this before” said Ashley “this is amazing” she added. Traci looked up from the book “I need you to do something for me” she said. “I need to know that I can trust you with this” “you can trust me” replied Ashley.

Ashley drove in the direction of Mitch’s Bar & Grill, she knew what Traci told her to do could help her get answers about where Mitchell is, so she decided to do it. She was asked to retrieve the crystal ball from Mitchells safe. If Traci had gone to get it, people would burn her at the stake. Well, they would try. Ashley didn’t know why she needed the crystal ball, but she was promised answers about Mitchells whereabouts if she retrieved it for her.

Faetasia

“OKAY SPIT IT OUT ALREADY WHO ARE YOU?” yelled Mitchell. The boy who we once knew as Sam turned to his friends “My name is Logan” “well it’s nice to meet you Logan” replied Mitch. Just then, the group heard shouting in the distance. Ericka was still tied to the tree limb, she began laughing “their coming for you” she said. “HOW DO WE GET OUT OF HERE!” screamed Lauren as she slapped Ericka across the face “You think I’m ever gunna tell you, princess” she said. Megan approached with her shank “I’ll make her talk” she said. Megan placed the blade on her neck, she made a small incision when Ericka let out a loud scream. Megan dug deeper “OKAY I’LL TELL YOU!” she gave up, blood dripped to the ground. “There are only two portals in and out of this place, there hidden. Not even I know where they are, however when you two were sent here a third portal was created. You can use that portal to get back” said Ericka. Her head rested against the rough tree bark “now let me go” “hell no” said Mitch as they headed towards the portal.

“Mitch, can I talk to you for a second?” asked Megan as they wondered off from the group “I only know the whereabouts of one of my sisters, finding the others is all you” she said. “Once we get out of here I’ll be able to use my crystal ball to find them, or maybe I’ll have a vision but that’s not a for sure thing” he replied “you have a crystal ball? That’s lame” Megan replied “If you knew how I got it, you wouldn’t think it was that lame, there’s only about 100 in the entire world” he said “where did you say your one sister lived?” asked Mitch “she’s in New York City”.

“WE’RE HERE!” yelled Mitch as they came across the hole in the ground that they climbed out of many months ago. “Ready to get the hell out of here?” asked Lauren as she placed her hand on Mitchells shoulder “after you” he said as Lauren jumped into the hole. Megan then followed and Logan jumped in after her. Mitch took a look around “good riddance” he whispered as he jumped in the hole”.

When Mitch opened his eyes he could hear the shouting of his name, Lauren was in the distance waving him down. Mitch sat up and took a look around, he was in the same farmers field that he was in when he was sent to Faetasia. The group decided to make their way to the bar. Mitchell was overwhelmed with the feeling of freedom; his powers were instantly working again. “So do we call a cab or something?” asked Lauren.

The cab took off leaving Mitchell, Lauren, Megan and Logan standing outside the bar. Mitchell grabbed the door handle and entered. As they walked into the bar, covered in dirt, blood and sweat, Dayna was washing the bar with a bucket of hot water. She turned to welcome the guests and let out a loud scream. She fainted and hit the floor “we’re home” Lauren whispered.

New York City

Rachel woke up in a panic. She raised her hands only to be held down by chains. She was breathing heavily as she looked at her surroundings. A dark damp room, the smell was horrible, like dead corpse or something. She looked beside her to see another woman chained up beside her. “Hello?” she whispered, the woman raised her head and looked at Rachel “who are you?” the woman asked “I’m Rachel, who are you?” she asked “Becky” the woman replied. Rachel saw glowing bracelets around her wrists “what are those?” asked Rachel “these are to keep me from lighting this whole place on fire”. Rachel didn’t understand “what does this guy want from me?” Rachel asked “are you special too? Do you have abilities?” asked Becky “Umm yes, do you?” she replied, “That’s why we’re here, he eats anything supernatural, it gives him power” said Becky “well what are you?” Rachel insisted, “I’m an elemental”.
