When Mister's guard team reached the helipad, all hell had broken lose. Mister, Robert, and Zeek were being held at gunpoint by the men from the first helicopter and there was a second helicopter trying to land. "What in the holy hell!" The head guard shouted as they pulled up on the scene. Mister yelled out, "don't ask f*cking questions, just shoot the bitch down!" So the head guard unholstered his weapon and began to fire at the hovering vessel. The pilot did an amazing job avoiding all of the shots, all but one.
Smoke suddenly came billowing out of the engine compartment of the small helicopter and it fell away behind the trees and out of sight. "YES!" Mister and Zeek yelled at the same time, "f*ck that bitch!" Zeek cheered... while Robert ran towards the spot where the helicopter had disappeared. "Nooooo!" Robert yelled as he reached the edge of the helipad. He bent over and grabbed his head like it was about to explode.
When Robert had
The girls both leaned on each other and limped their way inside of the lighted building. It just looked like an old warehouse from the outside, but the inside was set up like a mansion. It was framed off into what looked just like a regular house. There were plush carpets and chandeliers, as well as plenty of fine furniture and art. "What the hell?" Cat said as they all stood there gawking. "This is wild," Deena laughed. Georgio and Joy came through the door shortly after, and Joy made the proper introductions. "Very pleased to meet you," Deena said, while Cat just nodded politely and munched on an apple way to loudly. Deena turned and looked at Cat with big eyes. Cat just shrugged and kept munching on her apple. Georgio then called a medical team down and put them to work on the girls. They were banged up, but nothing to bad, so it didn't take long. He also called the kitchen and had a huge spread laid out for them all to enjoy. There were fruit
Zeek was so far beyond pissed off at Mister that he couldn't stand himself. He almost wondered if his old friend had actually lost his ever loving mind. He cocked his head sideways and opened his mouth...but the words just couldn't form. He honestly just could not believe what he had just heard. "So you're telling me that her own father paid you to not only kidnap this girl, but also to force her to marry you?" He asked "Is this what you're actually saying to me right here and now?" Zeek spat at Mister. "Yes," Mister simply said, like it was a normal thing to do. Zeek felt like he had been slapped in his mouth, and it dropped open all on it's own. "Mister, have you lost your damn mind? Crack? Is it crack you're smoking? It's crack isn't it?" Zeek ask seriously, "because only a damn crack head would be that desperate for money. You are given everything you need and more...and yet you STILL felt the need to do this?...Why?" Zeek asked almost
Justin pitched the biggest bitch fit over the sudden arrival of all these guests, with absolutely no warning at all. He tried to tell Pearl that he just couldn't do it, but she was not hearing it. "Just figure it the f*ck out," she had said to him. Really?? Really? Was she that naive to believe that what he did was just as simple as 'figure it out?' She simply HAD to be kidding him. At any rate, it had to be done, so he finally relented and rolled up his sleeves. Justin set about to making his magic happen when Hallie wondered through the service door to the kitchen. "Not now heifer, I don't have time," he told her. "Stop lieing, bitch, you always have time for me," She said back playfully. "For real Hallie, we have surprise guests, I'm f*cking frantic here," he told her. "Shit. Who is it?" She asked, being nosey. "I hear it's Mister's new mother in law and her friends," He said as he was frantically working around her. Hallie's eyes got hu
Perl knew that she had felt like something more was up with this whole ass situation. Mister asked her to sit down, but she refused. She was standing steadfast in her place at the moment. He started to cry again. Pearl felt in her heart that something worse was coming so she started to cry, too. "No. Please don't cry," he said through his own tears. "Then tell me everything right now," Pearl said. "I'm scared to tell you everything," he told her. "If you want my help, you better tell me everything right f*cking now boy.." she told him coldly. He knew she meant business so he just blurted it out..."She's pregnant, Mother Pearl," he sobbed to her. Pearl was so shocked at what she had just heard that she fell down into the couch and let her tears fall. When she could finally talk again, she asked him if the child was his. He told her no, but he wanted it to be. That surprised them both and they both kinda laughed at it a little. "Since when, c
Mister couldn't believe what he had just heard. Did she just say that she was ready to marry him?? Mister was ecstatic on the inside for some reason, but that reason was unknown to him. He sat forward in his chair a bit and tried to listen without disturbing the scene. Everyone noticed his anxiety, but no one said anything. Pearl handed Della a nice cold glass of ice water with a sweet smile on her face. "Thank you," Della said hoarsely with a smile on her face as well. Mister couldn't believe the difference in her behavior. It was like night and day from the last time Della had been awake. She was wild and angry the last time he saw her. She looked over at him and remembered kicking him. She suddenly felt so bad, so she dropped her eyes to the glass in her hand. Della was so greatful for that glass of water. She felt like she had been sleeping for days, even though she wasn't sure exactly what day it was at the moment. Surely they didn't l
Caine and his crew had made it over the wall and back onto the furthest back part of the castle grounds. They crossed through the forest and into the pasture. It was getting pretty late and the sun was starting to go down, so Caine decided to duck off under a bridge culvert and wait for the darkness. It had also been a really long walk so far, and they needed to rest. "Let's go, guys," Caine said as he pointed at the bridge. "Excuse me, go where?" Georgio asked politely. "Into that culvert pipe over there," Caine told him. "Dear boy, but why?" Georgio responded. "Because we need to rest and wait for darkness to get any closer to the castle," Caine answered. "Good Sir, I'm not getting in that disgusting ditch in this six thousand dollar suit," Georgio protested. "That's fine." Caine said, "you can wait out here...alone." Caine told him flatly. "I'm sorry...alone?" Georgio questioned Caine. "Yes, Sir...alone," Caine said simply. "Well, on the other
Pearl opened the kitchen door and witnessed utter chaos. She couldn't believe how many things that could possibly go wrong at one time, and she started to wonder just what in the hell she had done to piss the universe off so damn bad lately. Sprites...there were hundereds of stinking ass sprites running amuck in the freaking kitchen. They were nasty little critters with a few human like features. They were ugly and they smelled really bad. They had big, pointy teeth that were green brown and covered in green snot looking slobber. They were scavengers and would steal anything, especially food. The castle had an infestation of them when Mister'speople had first arrived here, but they haven't been seen in years, due to the rigorous extermination process that the castle underwent a few years before mister was born. "Really?" She asked no one as she looked up at the sky for answers for the third time in one day. "Are you going to f*ckin
The scene was so perfectly set for the girls to arrive that they all forgot about the mission for a while. There was a band of very small people with white blonde hair and very pale skin. They had large, beautifully slanted eyes and the same cute ears that Becky had. In fact, Becky could be their bigger cousin or something. The band was assembled underneath of one of the lighted trees. They were playing a light, mellow tune on some very strange looking instruments. It was a mesmerizing scene. Justin and Pearl were standing in the dark, just out of sight, awaiting the arrival of all of the guests. Justin still couldn't take his eyes off of Pearl and she still couldn't stop blushing. The carriage was driven past the gala grounds and around to the back of the village of forest rooms. It finally came to a complete stop, and once again the footman came to the door. He informed them that their things had been moved and that this would be th
Della and Queen Rebecca were having wine together privately in the Queen's rooms. Della tried to cheer her sister up, but she wasn't exactly sure yet about why she was so sad at the moment. Della was mid-sentence when a knock came at the door. She stopped what she was saying and got up to answer it. It was Caine, he didn't really say anything as he handed her the note that Cat had left for her, and he walked away. Della looked a little confused as she read the note silently to herself, and then she looked up at her sister with big, sad, knowing eyes. Queen Rebecca couldn't hold it in anymore and her tears started to fall all on their own, as she stared at the floor in silence. Della didn't say a word as she quickly crossed the room and took her sister in her arms. She just held her and rocked her gently as she cried. When she was finished crying, Della wiped her sister's tears away and told her to smile anyways. Even though it hurt to the bone, she still
Cat was in a wonderfully happy mood when she entered her and Josh's rooms and found him on the phone talking to someone feverishly. Cat stood quietly in the doorway with a glass of afternoon wine in her hand, and she listened as she tried to figure out just what in the heck the problem was. Josh hung the phone up and he turned to greet her. "Everything okay?" She asked him in a concerned manner. "Not really, I think I'm going to have to go home and deal with some things at the club. It probably wouldn't hurt for you to go look after your record store, too," Josh explained to her cooly. He had been pretending not to notice how close her and Queen Rebecca had been becoming lately, but there was no real way that anyone could be that blind. Their relationship had been cooling off quite a bit because of it. Cat tried to look like it didn't bother her to leave the castle and the queen, but Josh could see right through it. He didn't say much, just that
Joy had beaten Georgio's men to Uncle Benny's disgusting ass compound by at least fifteen minutes, so by the time that anyone made it there to stop her, she had already hung Uncle Benny from the ceiling by his wrists on a large pair of hooks that she had brought in her bag. She was calmly singing her song and unpacking her torture bag neatly onto a nearby table. The dirty little man was crying and begging for her to stop. Little did he know, that was just making things even worse for him. She heard the helicopter coming in and landing outside. The one that she thought was carrying Georgio's men, but she never waivered. She heard the men rush the house and discover all of the bad guys that she had just swept out, room by room, but she kept right on singing and preparing her tools. She never even missed a beat. She heard the men commenting and remarking on the sheer savageness of what they were seeing. That made her smile. She knew that they would
It had been two weeks since the funeral for Mister, Pearl, and Queen Esmeralda. Caine and the others had stood guard over, and reorganized everything. It had all been running like a well oiled machine, except for the fact that nobody had seen Justin the whole time. It was the common assumption that he had just left after Pearl's death. Caine had people search for him, but there was no trace of him anywhere, so he assumed what everyone else did, and they gave up. Joy had appointed a new head chef under the advisement of Kate and Sadie and everyone just moved on. It had actually been a completely blissful two weeks for everyone, it almost felt like a real vacation. They spent a lot of time together and made a ton of great memories. They ate to much and drank way, way to much, and they became way to comfortable in the castle life, but like all good things...it was about time for it all to come to an end. Joy's father had called her and demanded a me
It had been three days since they had lost Mister and Pearl, and four days since the loss of Queen Esmeralda. The air was thick with sadness as they prepared to say goodbye to them all. The castle and it's grounds were all decorated in black and silver, shrouded in a thick layer of despair, and coated with the bitter sweet feeling of definate change. Kate and Sadie had been appointed head housekeepers but their duties were suspended for a few days, in light of them being directly related to one of the deceased. Della, Cat and Joy tried their best to cover for them, but in the end Kate decided that she wanted her and Sadie to be the one's to coordinate it all because they knew Pearl best and they had been there the longest, so they wanted everything perfect. Everyone was gathered on the gala grounds, dressed in their most dramatic garb. It was a perfectly dreary day for it to. It was grey and overcast, and there was a light sleet hang
"Missing?!" The queen looked up and asked Caine in confusion, "what do you mean...missing?" She cried in despair. "I mean exactly what I said, my queen," Caine started to explain to her, "Josh and I went out into the hall and they were not laying where you left them, so we started looking for them and trying to follow their trail. We found bloody drag marks along with some huge wolf prints, and we followed them as far as they went," Caine said in a suspicious tone. The queen didn't say anything for a few seconds. She kind of just stared at him blankly. After a moment she finally blinked her eyes and asked him sarcastically, "well where did they end?" Caine got a far away look on his face and then he said, "well that's the strange part. They ended at the edge of the cliff over the ocean side of the mountain. It's almost like they jumped off of the cliff or something." Queen Rebecca sat up straight and her eyes got wide. "There's no way they
Mister and Pearl were both so pissed off that it was damn near impossible to hide it. Pearl took a deep breath and she tried to maintain her composure. She thought carefully about her words before she opened her mouth to speak. "My queen," Pearl started to speak, "I have been a loyal and faithful employee of this castle for more than twenty years now. I will admit that I am not always perfect, however, I beg you to understand that everything that I have ever done was with the best interest of Mister and this castle in mind," Pearl said eloquently as she batted her thick eyelashes. Queen Rebecca looked Pearl up and down for a moment thoughtfully and then she turned her attention to Mister. "And you?" She said to him in an authoritative manner. Mister looked as though he was about to actually explode right there on the spot. Queen Rebecca wanted to laugh at him so bad, but she fought the urge, and she swallowed the laughter back. He stood the
Mister and Pearl became panicked when they saw the weather changing like that. They transformed immediately when they stepped out into the raging wind. "It's happening!" Pearl cried out. The two wolves began to howl and wail, which made the other animals in the stables start up too. The wolves paced back and forth, following the force field, looking for a way out. Any way out at all. The two of them became so desperate to escape that they began ramming their bodies against the invisible force field as hard as they could, slamming themselves so hard that they were actually bouncing off of it and landing on their sides a few feet away. They did this over and over again until the wind stopped blowing and the trees had finally come to a rest. Pearl was so broken hearted at the moment, that she didn't even bother to get up the last time she hit the wall. She just laid there and whimpered for a while. Mister crawled over and he laid on top of her, in a
The queen hugged her great grandson while she tried to explain, but he just didn't want to hear it, so he pulled away making her cry even harder. "So you're telling me that now you have to die because I lost the duel?" He asked her in total disbelief and anger. "No, Mister, I'm not exactly going to die, just change forms one last time," she tried to comfort the already crying man, but he could not be comforted. "My spirit will be in the wind, and the snow, and the rain, the sunshine and every single flower you will ever see," the queen told him tenderly as she wiped the tears from his chin with her ancient, snow white hand. Mister and Pearl wailed and howled and begged her to stay, but no matter what, they could not change fate. They asked her what would become of them after she was gone and she told them that was up to Princess Rebecca now. They were even more distraught after they heard that answer. The queen hugged them one last time and told them that she l
