SOTHEBY'S LOUNGE CENTER

The Next Morning, the Saunders Gang and I has reconvened with each other.

"Amy just killed herself." Zach said, sitting on the sofa, still a bit shocked about Amy's suicidal.

"Yeah. But at least, we don't have to worry about Amy Tooney anymore." Ziandra said.

"Ziandra?" I said, giving her a look.

"What?" Ziandra said with a shrug of a shoulder. "Amy Tooney's gone."

"But that still leaves Quinton Kiermont and his Bunny Masked asylum crazed henchmen." Aiden said.

"Perhaps, Ziandra's right, Amy Tooney's gone, and now, there's Quinton Kiermont." I said.

"Jayce and Joyce are having a formal party at the Tavern Bodge if anyone's interested."Ziandra said. "It's this evening by the way."

"Your parties, Ziandra." I said with a small smile.

Ziandra and I exchange small smiles at each other.

3RD POV

At his loft apartment, Quinton Kiermont is looking out of the window, taking a swig of his beer.

"Quinton?" Jared Wallace said.

"My wife, Amy, she's deceased." Quinton said.

"She is. She uh, she committed suicide on herself." Jared said.

Quinton looks at the bubble map template on his living room wall and slowly walks up to it. "Amy would want me to complete."

"I assume that you're mourning." Jared said.

"Oh, I am. Psychologically." Quinton said. "Are you still with your small little gang group?"

"The Reptiles? Yeah." Jared said to Quinton. "Why?"

"I might need them. But not right now." Quinton said.

"What's with your scrape wound?" Jared asked.

"Angie and I had a little fight and she gave me this scrape wound. I love it, by the way." Quinton said, sitting at the kitchen countertop with his bottle of beer.

"You're crazy, man." Jared said.

Quinton smiles, wickedly. "Yeah, I am."

MINXES SPEAKEASY LOUNGE

I'm sitting at the round bar counter with my small glass of rum. My phone buzzes in my jeans pocket. I pulls out my phone and looks at it.

Violet

I answer my phone. "Violet?"

"Hi, Angie. Cherry said that you were worried about me. And so, I wanted to tell you that I'm okay." Violet said to me on the phone.

"I'm glad you're okay." I said to her with a small smile. "I just wanted to check on you."

"Yeah. And by the way, you and Cherry had a falling out with each other." Violet said.

"Yeah. She told you, didn't she?" I asked.

"Of course she did." Violet said. "By the way, you said that you needed some advice from me about something? Are you okay?"

"I'm pretty sure that you have enough stuff on you, Violet." I said to her.

"I can spare a few, so, what's wrong, Angie?" Violet asked.

"There's this guy named Quinton Kiermont and he's a sociopath." I said to her.

"And let me guess, you have a quarrel with him?" Violet said.

"Yeah. I don't know what to do." I said to her.

"Angie, there's always a villain or villainess in a story tale. And the superhero always stops the villain or villainess. What I'm trying to say is, Angie, you said Quinton Kiermont is the villain in your story tale, and he's been trying to get you to embrace your darkness, the thing, don't let him. You're a good person. And you have loved ones and cared ones that you have in your life. I gotta go, but if you ever need me. You have my phone number. And I like said, I can always a few to chitchat with you." Violet said on the phone.

"Thanks, Violet." I said.

"I gotta go, love you, Angiepoo." Violet said on the phone.

"Love you too, V." I said, and hangs up her phone.

"Do you feel any better now, Angiekins?" Cherry asked, slowly walks up to me.

"Yeah. And Cherry, I'm sorry about our falling out." I said to her.

"It's okay, I've gotten over it anyway. Cherry said to me.

Cherry and I exchange small smiles at each other.

"Hi, Angie." Quinton said.

Quinton and I exchange annoyed looks at each other.

"Quinton." I said.

"I assume that you two knows of each other?" Cherry asked.

"Yeah." I said. "Amy committed suicided."

"I know." Quinton said. "But not to worry, SweetiePea, I'm not gonna do damage to you. Not right now anyway. Besides . . ." he points to his scrape wound on the forehead temple. ". . . You've already damaged me."

Quinton and I exchange annoyingly tense looks at each other.

TAVERN BODGE LOCAL BAR AND LOUNGE CLUBHOUSE

That evening, Me and the Saunders Gang, are at Ziandra's party. And she loves parties.

I'm gently leaning on the round bar counter, looking around at my best friends as their having party fun.

"Hey, Angie." Cassidy said.

"Hey, Cassidy." I said.

"Are you okay?" Cassidy asked me, concerned.

"Yeah. I'm fine." I reassured her with a small smile.

Cassidy looks at Jayce with Gilmore and Rowan with Joyce. "Rowan and Gilmore have moved on with Jayce and Joyce."

I looks at Rowan with Joyce; and Jayce with Gilmore sitting on the sofas. "Yeah. I'm happy for them."

Cassidy and I exchange small smiles at each other.

"Hey, guys." Aiden said, dressed up in a tieless suit. "Cassidy, can I borrow Angie?"

"Yeah, sure. Of course." Cassidy said with a small smile and slowly walks away.

Aiden and I exchange small smiles at each other.

"Rowan and Gilmore have moved on with Jayce and Joyce." Aiden said.

"Yeah. I know." I said to him.

"But you have a not good vibe about something, don't you?" Aiden asked me, worriedly.

"Yeah. I do. And now, with Amy Tooney gone, Quinton Kiermont is the new villain." I said, worriedly, but small smiles a little. "Am I ruining your party mood, Aidy?"

"Not really no." Aiden said. "Actually, I'm happy that you're happy. And I love you, Angie."

"I love you too." I said back to him.

Aiden plants a kiss on my cheek and he gently holds me close to him. I smile a little and gently rests my head on his chest.

Angie (VO) But still, something irks me. And the nightmarish horror isn't quite far from over.
