Chapter 51: Basement Talk
unedited ;-;
~•~
Anne was in the living room, once again pacing back and forth, repeating the same number for fifteen minutes with no answer while the other queens watched in concern.
Anne: She's not picking up! They're supposed to be here an hour ago!
Cathy: Annie..
Anne: What if Thomas got to them?? O-Or Henry?? Or B-Both?!
Cathy shot up from her seat and went over to Anne, who just broke down into tears, pulling her into a hug and stoked her hair.
Cathy: I'm sure they're fine, they're both smart girls..
Anne: I-I just want to know if they're okay..
Cathy: I know, I know..
Catherine sat them down on a chair, with Anne on her lap and started humming to her ear.
Jane: We should try to call Mezza.. it's worth a try..
The queens nodded as Jane dialled Mezza's number, which immediately went to a flat line and then her voice mail.
"Heyy, sorry- I'm too busy doing something stupid right now, call me next year-"
Jane sighed and placed the phone down.
Jane: She's off too..
Hearing this only made Anne panic more and she ran upstairs to her room, Kitty ran after her, leaving only four queens in the living room. Cath ran her hand through her hair and slouched back.
Cath: Are we cursed with bad luck..?
Anna: Seems like it.
Jane: I hope they're okay ..

Cordeigh creeped up to Mezza, who was tied down and inserted a needle in her arm, making the girl jump.
Mezza: OW! What the hell asshole?!
Mr.C: Shut up or I'll bring the axe.
Mezza immediately went silent, she hates syringes but she hates axes more than anything.
Liz: What are you doing to her??
Mr.C: Oh, just a little amnesia.. since someone told her the truth.
He glared at Lori, who looked down, wincing, Liz watched with her brows furrowed.
Liz: What kind of person are you? You hurted your daughter, and she's bleeding right next to me while you play around with things like this! You're one of the most disgusting people I've ever met!
Lori: T-Tudor—
Cordeigh snapped his neck towards Liz, who felt shivers go down her spine as he slowly walked towards her.
Mr.C: ...I don't "play" around with syringes.. I'm a scientist who's going to change the world with my new discovery of human immortality! SO SHUT THE FUCK UP BEFORE I STAB THIS IN YOUR THROAT.
The man placed the syringe on Lizzie's neck and stared right in her eyes, the girl gulped and slowly nodded which made Cordeigh remove the syringe from her neck and smirked.
Mr.C: Do you know why I do this...?
He turned to Lori, who immediately shaked her head.
Mr.C: To bring your brother back Lorraine..
Her eyes widened and paused for a moment.
Lori: Wh-What d-do m-mean?
His lips formed a creepy smile and let out a little chuckle.
Mr.C: Don't you want your big brother back Lorraine...?
Lori: I...—
Mr.C: If you could just be a good girl and help daddy out, things would have worked faster.. but you did the opposite of that.
He pointed to Mezza and Liz, glaring at her.
Mr.C: I told you to not make friends other than Marcial, Cassandra and Russel, and what the fuck did you do?!
You... You befriended these poor, useless excuses! Are you out of your mind?! If anyone knows about this, LOUIS CANT COME HOME. HE WONT BE ALIVE AND BE WITH YOU AGAIN.
We couldn't be a complete family.. so, Lorraine, my sweet little girl, can you help me?
Lori: ....
She stared at her father, actually no, an insane sick man that acts nothing like the father that she used to remember, she's not staring at a man who's strong, stubborn and over-supportive, she's staring at a man who's delusional, crazy and is literally pointing a syringe at her. To her, her family is already dead.
Lori: Dennis..
Dennis: ..What did you just call me..?! IM YOUR FATHER. (lol get it?)
Lori: You're not my dad.. he w-would never d-do something like this..
Dennis: What on earth are you talking about?! I'm going to make you HAPPY don't you get it?? me and your mother will bring him back, ISNT THAT WHAT YOU ALWAYS WANTE—
Lori: LOUIS DIED SIX YEARS AGO, HE'S DEAD, HE'S PROBABLY ROTTING AWAY WITH WORMS AND MAGGOTS IN THE DIRT RIGHT NOW, SO GET OVER IT.
She huffed and looked around the room, the two girls were looking at her with wide eyes and then to her father with the same expression, silence filled the room and Cordeigh dropped the syringe on a table.
Dennis: Fine... Fine, you want it that way? Okay, we'll do it that way.. But that doesn't stop me from making the chemical for human immortality... So have fun with your last night. Make the most of it.
Then he turned around and stomped upstairs, locking the door, leaving all three girls in the basement, Lori sighed and sat down, laying her head on her knees while Liz and Mez watched her while tied up.
Liz: Lori..? Are you alright?
Lori: Obviously not..
Liz: S-sorry...
Lori: Don't be, we're all going to die tomorrow.. my father's the worst isn't he? I'm sorry if you're all going to die young because of me..
Liz: Lori...
Mezza: It's not because of you, it's your dad-
Liz: .. At least I'm going to die with you this time..
Lori: That's very cheesy of you Tudor.. wait what do you mean 'this time'?
Mezza: She's a reincarnate of a queen named.. uhm.... Wh-who was it again?
Liz: Are you serious-
Lori: The amnesia is kicking in, hold on.
Lorraine got up and went to the table for of bottles and grabbed a cup, filling it up with stuff-
Mezza: What's an amnesia again?
Liz: Mez, you're a duck-
Mezza: I am?
Liz: Yeah.
Mezza: Wooaah.. what's a duck again?
Liz let out a little laugh, almost forgetting the fact that she's tied up in a basement that's in a house owned by some weird couple and that one of them is going to murder her tomorrow she sighed and threw her head back, Lori walked over to Mez, kneeling down beside the girl with a cup and tilted it up in her mouth, Mez casually drank it all and immediately, she fell asleep.
Liz: Woah cool-
Lori: She'll remember everything when she wakes up..
Liz: Lori...
Lori: Hm?
Liz: ...My neck itches-
Lori: And?
Liz: ..Can you scratch it for me?
Lori: No, you do it.
Liz: But I'm tied up-
Lori grabbed a blade and cut the ropes, Liz immediately reached up her neck and scratched the itchy part, sighing in relief.
Liz: Phew, thanks-
Lori:
Liz: Are you scared?
Lori: ..to be honest, no, I can finally get out of here, and even get to see Louis again..
Liz: Yeah, well.. what about Marc, Cass and Russ? What would their reaction be?
Lori: They'll understand.. I know they will.
Liz: Jesus..
Lori: Look, my dad is a psychopath, I'm surprised he didn't murder anyone yet. Until tomorrow that is.
Liz: Oh wow, my dad is a psychopath too! What a coincidence-
Lori: Eh?
Liz: I mean, he isn't really a psychopath, but he's horrible, he got into a jousting accident which messed up his brain or something-
Lori: Jousting? Isn't that from the 1300s or something?
Liz: Uuh, my family likes old school stuff-
Lori: I guess so.. Even you?
Liz: YEAH-
Lori place her hand on her mouth and gestured to quiet down.
Lori: Okay jeez, pipe down will ya?
Liz: Sorry-
Lori: Continue..
Liz: ...I actually live with my mom and five aunts-
Lori: Didn't you said that you live with four aunts and the other one died? Sorry..
Liz: No its fine, uhh, my other aunt moved in with us, she totally didn't reincarnated or anything heHe-
Lori: That's cool..
Liz: And there's also six other kids I live with, and it can get really chaotic- but that's about it.
Lori: Oh so your dad doesn't live with you?
Liz: We personally ripped him out of our lives because he made each of my aunt's lives a living nightmare :)
Lori: .. wait he dated all your aunts??
Liz: Married, actually-
Lori: Oh wow, that's even more weird and unsettling-
Liz: I know, do you want to want to talk about your family?
Lori: Sure.. Brother? dead, Dad? insane, Mom? also insane, done.
Liz: ...Wow- I'm sorry..
Lori: At least you have a normal family.. unlike mine..
Liz, *insert Goofy voice here*: I reckon every family has their oWn normal.
Lori:
Liz:
Lori:
Liz:
Lori: Ew, don't ever do that Infront of me again.
Liz: Jeez-
Lori: ... Actually, now that you mentioned it..
Lori got up and grabbed a lighter, looking at a confused Lizzie on the floor.
Lori: We have a 'normal' quote in this house, guess what it is.
Liz: Uhm.. if fish doesn't float- neither does your iq?
Lori: ...no, it's If someone is out to get you, get to them first.
Liz: Wait a minute-
Lori went over to the corner and dragged a gasoline canister closer, a smile crept up in her face as she looked down at Lizzie.
Liz: Uh-
Lizzie: Get up, and wake Stuart... we're about to have another party.
