Lemon Twist

“Maddy?!?!”

Alice stares at her. Other than the now greenish skin she saw, she knew it had to be Maddy. Alice saw her face from Derek’s picture in his journal. She analyzed it, in a way of almost sizing her up to see what she was maybe was like and if Derek could even find her attractive.

Alice knew she was good looking but Maddy was top of the line.

Maddy looks at her in a strange way, “how do you know me?”

Alice hesitates on whether to lie, tell the truth or run for her life. She settles on a choice, “from Derek’s journal.”

Maddy’s mouth is almost in a gasp, “well how do you know him?”

“We are friends.” She lies the best she has ever done.

Maddy laughs, “really girl? You are going to tell me that? I can see it on your face and in your eyes.”

“You can see what? That I’m lying.” Alice stand there trying to look stronger than her zombie counterpart.

“Yes, that and that you are in love with him.” Maddy laughs even louder, “poor girl, he could never love you when his heart belongs to this flesh bag.” She smiles and points up and down at her body.

Then Maddy walks over stabs Rabbit in the neck with an old rusty dagger. She moves her dagger to his head and with the help of her vampire they crack open his skull.

Maddy grabs the brain and starts to eat it. One big bite into it as it oozes all over her mouth. The vampires lean down and sink their fangs in Rabbit’s neck to start to drain the body of it’s blood. The vampire suck the blood out till nothing is left.

Maddy finishes her meal then wipe the blood and brain matter from her mouth so there is only an outline of it all on her face.

“Now tell me little girl where is Derek and Eve.” Maddy says as she walks in front of her in a way to strike some fear into her, but Alice doesn’t care.

Alice doesn’t reply. Maddy leans in towards her face, “I’m still hungry and if you don’t help me, you will be my next meal.”

Alice hesitates but has to reply, “Derek left to go her from Reaper.”

Maddy laughs, “Those two. I hate them so much.”

Maddy stands there smiling at Alice. It creeps out Alice because she can see the brain and blood still in her teeth.

“What are you looking at?” Alice barks at her.

Maddy narrows her eyes at her, “I’m trying to tell if you are his type. I mean I have all his poor wives’ memories, so I know everything.” She really isn’t looking for that but it for making Alice uneasy and it works.

Maddy turns to Victoria, “let’s go queenie, time to go to my castle.”

Victoria looks at her, at first like a strong queen should but then she folds, “please don’t hurt me.”

Maddy laughs the points at her guards and commands orders to them, “take them two to my stage cart. The vampires grab Alice and Victoria to take them to the cart.

Maddy follows, grinning at her conquest and victory of the night.

Everyone is loaded into the cart. The vampires go to driver seats to man the zombies pulling the cart and Maddy sits in the cart cabin with Alice and Victoria.

Maddy stares at Alice, “what’s on your mind? You seem like you want to ask me something.”

Alice looks back at her, “there is something.”

“What is it sweetie? I’m dying, I mean, I want to know what it is.” Maddy smiles big.

“I thought you were dead. How did you become like this?”

Maddy slightly laughs, “Well you read his journal. I’ll fill in the blanks for you. Here is what happened.”

Alice nods, trying to be ready for whatever it is she is about to hear.

“I was bitten by that zombie. Maybe I could have been saved, I don’t know, I know

Derek thinks he could have saved me. I thought life as I knew it was over and

Derek would have to make the decision to kill me for good. But the poor b*****d didn’t. He kept me locked up like some kind of pet. I could move at all with all the chains on top on me. Then that special night happened. Then he was brutally betrayed but his own cousin.”

Alice looks at her confused and Maddy notices so she explains.

“Dyson. Dyson is Derek’s cousin. He hired a stupid villager to betray his gravedigger commander and kill all of his family, or at least Derek and me. But the guy shot that damn gem in Derek’s pocket. It exploded and landed all over the room. Pieces hit me, Derek and Eve. Each one of us was infected somehow by that stupid thing.”

Maddy looks at Alice’s puzzled face. Then Maddy laughs aloud. Alice stops her.

“What did it do to you guys?”

“Well for me, it gave me powers. It made my brain awake from its coma of stupidity and stopped it’s one thought of just eating. And best of all it gave me control of the whole entire zombie population. After that I just used that new found power to rule the lands around here, searching for Derek and Eve.” Maddy points at Victoria,

“and this b***h, so I could control all of the land with no problems.”

Victoria sits there in shock then flips off Maddy. Maddy’s face wrinkles up in anger,

“stop this thing.” She yells out to the drivers. They stop the cart.

Maddy grabs her and pulls her out of the cart but her hair. Maddy throw her to the ground and kicks her in the face. Then Maddy reaches for a container on the cart and pours the contents on half of Victoria’s body. Next Maddy grabs a torch that’s on the cart and she tosses it on Victoria. Her body burst into flames.

Maddy casually gets back into the cart and yells out for the driver to go forward. The cart takes off as the deadly harsh sounds of Victoria’s screams are heard.

After a while the screams faded into the night.

Maddy look up with a giant smirk on her face, “so should I continue my lovely story.”

Alice nods, still in shock from the information she heard and the events that just happened.

“So with these new powers, my guilty faded. I found out later what the gem was and what it did. It all makes sense now.”

“What does the gem do?”

“Well it’s called the Trimanga of Satan. It has the power of creating evil, controlling evil and making sure evil last. The one in control of the gem has the power of all of those three things with no negative effects. But with the gem splitting, the powers spilt to. I got controlling evil.”

Alice hesitates but has to ask, “What did Derek get?”

“You actually know what he got. You have met his evil. It was created from years of anything bad in this life mixed with the death of me.”

“I meet his evil?” Alice is completely confused.

“Reaper.” Maddy laugh, “all Derek’s evil is in him. The gem just formed it all together into one man.”

Alice gasp, what the f**k. Alice hates to ask it but has too. “What about Eve?”

[SapphirianVampiress]

Oh my wow umm to be honest I am clueless as to what is going to happen next. I don't think Alice will continue to go along with it and I don't have any Idea what Derek will do when he comes face to face with Maddy again but isn't he starting to fall for Alice??

[Marie]

I have no idea what will happen now. I didn't think Rabbit would be killed,and I was sorry to read it. One thing is sure: Maddy won't be conquered easily.
