Chapter Twelve : Scarlett The Deranged Maniac
CRIMSON QUINN SPEAKEASY LOUNGE
[Song: Stay High - Tove Lo]
The next day, in the dim lit main room, Cherry and I are looking at the speakeasy goers playing at the poker tables and slot machines.
Cherry and I are sitting at the bar counter with our glasses of butterscotch rum and sips on it with cinnamon sticks.
"I admit, Violetquinn. Your butterscotch rum is really good. And the cinnamon stick adds a cinnamon flavor to it." said Cherry.
[Song ends]
"Thanks, but I knew you were gonna like it when you tried it." I said to her, taking another swig of my homemade butterscotch rum drink and looks at Cherry, who small smiles at me. "What?"
"You've matured, Violet. You're still the same person as always, but you've matured." Cherry said to me.
"Thanks, Cherry." I said to her, and glances at the slot machines. "Have you played at the slot machines?"
"Spencey and I have played a few." Cherry replied to me. "It's pretty fun by the way. You should try it out sometimes."
"Yeah, I might sometimes." I said to Cherry.
Cherry and I exchange small smiles at each other and we drink more of our butterscotch rum cocktail drink with cinnamon straws.
[Song: Don't Start Now - Dua Lipa]
Afterwards, Cherry and I, along with other dancers, are dancing together on the dance carpet floor. The lights are pink and blue. Cherry and I exchange smiles at each other. She twirls me around and I twirl her around, exchange playfully chuckles with each other.
Cherry pulls out her phone and takes some pictures of Me and herself on her Pictagram with the tag; #ChioletatCrimsonQuinnSpeakeasy.
Cherry and I exchange small chuckles with each other.

JEN'S DINER
Later on that day, Cherry and I are sitting at the diner counter with our milkshakes.
She has her usual strawberry milkshake. And I have a French vanilla milkshake.
I small smile at the pictures of Cherry and Me that Cherry had taken at the Crimson Quinn. And she posted it on her Pictagram page.
"You actually posted us on your Pictagram page?" I asked.
"I absolutely did, hope you didn't mind." Cherry said.
"Nope." I said to her.
"Do you have Pictagram?" Cherry asked me.
"Pictagram isn't my thing, Cherry." I said to her. "But you're one of my best friends, Cherry, I hope you know that."
Cherry looks at me with a soften look in her eyes. "Likewise, Violetquinn."
Cherry and I exchange small smiles at each other.

ARRINGTON PARK
That afternoon, I'm sitting on a bench, enjoying the warm breeze, looking at town residents enjoys themselves.
Jonny drives up to me on his motorbike and pulls off his motorbike helmet. "Hey, Vinnie. You wanna take a ride?"
"I don't know, Jonny." I said to him with my arms folded. "A motorbike can be dangerous."
Jonny small smiles at me. "It's just a motorbike ride around the small town."
"Okay." I said, getting up to my feet and slowly walks up to Jonny and sits down behind him, gently wraps my arms around his waist.
Jonny puts back on his motorbike helmet, cranks up his motorbike and drives away.
*~*~*
Jonny drives through the small town of Arrington on his motorbike and I look around at the small shops, Jen's Diner, the Blue Waves Swimming Center and other small buildings and small shops.
Violet (VO) The small town Arrington has gotten a little better. It even has a reputation as The Odd Town.
*~*~*
JEN'S DINER
Later on that late afternoon, Jonny and I are sitting at the diner counter with our ice cream sundaes with our spoons.
"Told you the motorbike ride would be fun." Jonny said to me with a small smile.
I small smile back at him. "Okay, okay. I had fun with the motorbike ride."
Jonny and I exchange playfully chuckles with each other.
Jonny's phone buzzes in his jeans pocket. He pulls out his phone and looks at it.
Prudence Rivera
"Why is Prudence phone calling my phone?" Jonny asked me. "I told her to leave me alone."
"She has romantic thing for you, Jonny." I replied to him. "She's like Ricky. You don't have to answer it if you don't want to."
"Prudence is gonna keep phone calling me if I don't answer it, so, I might as well, Vinny." Jonny said, and answers his phone. "What do you want, Prudence?"
"Hi, Handsome." Prudence greeted him on his phone. "I have information about Scarlett Sweeney that may be of useful. Come alone to the Sweeney Speakeasy Nightclub." and she hangs up.
"What did Prudence want?" I asked him.
"She said that she information about Scarlett Sweeney that may be useful and to come alone to the Sweeney Speakeasy Nightclub." Jonny said.
"And I guess you're not going alone." I said to him.
"Nope, I don't trust Prudence. For all I know, it might be a ploy to get me over to the Sweeney Speakeasy." Jonny said to me.
"Well, you're in lucky because you have a special agent girlfriend." I said to him.
Jonny and I exchange small playful smiles at each other.

SWEENEY SPEAKEASY NIGHTCLUB
That evening, Jonny and I slowly walks down the five steps and into the dim lit main room.
Prudence Rivera slowly walks up to Jonny and Me. "You didn't come alone."
"I don't trust you, Prudence." Jonny tells her. "Especially, knowing how you are. And your reputation also reminds me of Ricky."
"My oh my, you're still handsomely hottie." Prudence said with a flirty grin.
I suddenly spider-sense an uneasy vibe from Prudence. "What are you really up to, Prue? Because I'm sensing an uneasy vibe from you?"
Jonny glances at me and averts his attention back on Prudence. "Why are we really here, Prudence?"
Prudence pulls out a flash drive from her jeans pocket. "This flash drive has information about Scarlett Sweeney."
Prudence hands it to me and I gently takes it from her.
"Thanks." I said to her. "How's Ricky and You? Have you had enough of each other yet?"
"I can handle Ricky." Prudence said to me. "And I know very well of his bad boy reputation as well."
"I'm sure you do." Jonny said to her.
I chuckles softly to myself and walks away. And Jonny walks after me.
"Do you always follow your girlfriend, Violet, around like a lovesick puppy?" Prudence banter asked Jonny.
Jonny and I stopped walking and looks at her.
"Are you always your boyfriend's, Ricky's, booty call whenever he's in a mood?" Jonny banter asked her.
Prudence gives Jonny a look and I chuckles softly to myself.
Violet (VO) That'll hush her up.
Jonny and I walks away.

BENTON HOME
That night, in my bedroom, I'm sitting on bed, cross-legged position.
I insert the flash drive into my laptop and Scarlett's Sweeney's psychological profile of both Arrington Asylum and the Silverwood Psychiatric Ward.
"What's Scarlett Sweeney document?" Jonny asked, sitting down beside me on the bed.
"After Scarlett killed her father with a meat cleaver, she had a psychotic break and tried to kill her mother. But her mother had her committed into the Silverwood Psychiatric Ward." I told Jonny.
"And after Scarlett tried to kill her psychiatrist, she was sent to the Arrington Asylum for her psychotic sadistic maniacally behavior." Jonny read the information on my laptop.
"So, it explains why Eleanor Reese became her surrogate mother, she and Scarlett are similar. They're both mentally deranged insane." I said to Jonny.
"Eleanor Reese kept Scarlett in check. And now, with Eleanor gone in Christine's prison world, Scarlett's unglued." Jonny said.
Jonny and I exchange worried looks at each other.
*~*~*
3RD POV
That same night, at the Special Agent Ops Field Office, Craig Hudson is sitting at a computer, looking at the computer screen with Scarlett Sweeney's psychological profile, emailed to him by Me.
Suddenly, the door opens upstairs.
Craig looks up at the staircase. "Is someone there?"
Craig logged out of his email and gets up, and slowly walks up the stairs.
Suddenly, a Scary Bunny person stabs Craig in his stomach, causing him to grunt and falls onto the floor.
The Scary Bunny person pulls off their bunny mask; Scarlett Sweeney looks at Craig with a sadistic grin.
