Chapter Text

Another day, another plan, another murder. That's what I'm doing today, when I could be back at home. Not really a home, but it's the closest I'll ever get to one. Worse of all I have to bring two ghosts with me. One was already annoying, but two made everything worse.

 

"Keep up." They are always distracted, always interfering with everything I do, always annoying. But other than that, I know that if I don't kill those three soon, I'll get caught. We are getting too close to their kingdom. So tonight, I'll kill all three of them, or at least kill two. Then that will leave one. 

 

"How would one do that?" I mumbled. I look around to see how far I've gone. Too far... That's it I have to get rid of them quickly. A rustle came from the bushes.

 

You're scared, you're going crazy, go back where it's safe. Just bare the consequences and go back. 

 

I'm just making things up, it's probably just anxiety of being caught. This could ruin my life if anyone found out. But luckily I ruined my life long ago so I don't need to worry about that. 

 

I should go check. 

 

I got up from where I was sitting to get a look at the bushes. No one. Just like how I thought. 

 

I looked at my hands, still stained from dried up blood, my sleeves was covered in blood too. Maybe I feel a little guilty, but I regret my decisions I could just revive them later. But if I did that Dark Enchantresses would be disappointed in me. 

 

Is it so hard just not to mess up for once? Why does emotions always get in the way? 

 

All the things I desire are blocked by my stupid self. If I just follow through with my plan and just get rid of them I'll be. I'll be... I'm not sure what I'll be. Maybe I'll be less of a disappointment. Maybe I'll even make Dark Enchantress proud for once. Maybe I'll be the favored one! 

 

I shouldn't be guilty, as long I'm reaching a goal, all sacrifices I make won't matter. 

 

Fuck it, the little boy and that girl will go.
