Chibi Wars! Halloween Part 3

*Previously on Chibi Wars...*

*Chibi Missy ran off from Chibi Chelsie and Chibi Liam. She then met a mysterious girl in old-fashioned clothing, then befriended her. Chibi Chelsie and Chibi Liam ended up being chased by a ghost.* 

Chibi Missy: Wow, this house sure is big :O

Chibi Annette: Well, this house was designed to fool any who entered. That is its purpose. 

Chibi Missy: Oh... Well... The parts of it I can see are pretty. 

Chibi Annette: My great-great-great grandfather would be proud to hear your praise. 

Chibi Missy: Your great-great-great grandfather made this house?

Chibi Annette: Yes. It pains me to see it fall into such disrepair, though. It may belong to my family, but we no longer have the means to take care of it. That is why it is crumbling into decay. 

Chibi Missy: Is that why you came back now? To try and see if you could repair it?

Chibi Annette: No. 

*Chibi Annette turns and looks inside a small room to the side of where they are standing. It is full of old fashioned toys including a rocking horse and building blocks, as well as two small crib-like beds*

Chibi Missy: What is this?

Chibi Annette: ~sighs~ This is the children's room. Me and my sister spent many happy days in here, while our papa was busy with work. 

Chibi Missy: ... Tell me about your sister.

Chibi Annette: Me and her are twins. Annette and Annabella. We were very close to one another. Sometimes, if we concentrated hard enough, we could hear each other's thoughts. 

Chibi Missy: Cool :O

Chibi Annette: It was our very special gift, but in some ways, it was a curse. The local children were afraid of us, and that fear spread to our local church and through our neighbours, until we were excommunicated and exiled, alone in a village full of people. 

Chibi Missy: Were you two lonely? Q~Q

Chibi Annette: Heavens no! We had each other. We didn't need anyone else, just each other. We were like two halves of the same person, in some ways. But talk spreads and eventually it reached our happy home. Our parents began to argue and papa often spent the evening alone, drinking whiskey in his study...

*Chibi Annette sighs and walks on in silence. Missy walks with her, then shyly grabs her hand.* 

Chibi Missy: Don't worry! We'll find your sister together ^~^

Chibi Annette: ~smiles~ Yes, I suppose we shall. 

*Suddenly, Chibi Chelsie and Chibi Liam come running down the hallway, screaming loudly. They run straight into Chibi Missy and Chibi Annette*

Chibi Missy: Chibi Chelsie?! Chibi Liam?! :O

Chibi Liam: G-Ghost! T-There was a ghost! Q~Q

*Chibi Liam begins to sob and holds onto Chibi Missy tightly. She pats his head*

Chibi Missy: Don't worry, there are no such things as ghosts ^~^

Chibi Chelsie: Oh yeah, then who's THAT with you? 

*She points an accusing finger at Chibi Annette* 

Chibi Missy: Oh that's my new friend Chibi- 

*She is cut off by violent roaring. Icy cold wind swirls around them, pushing them back. The group begin to run*

Chibi Missy: WHAT ON EARTH IS THAT?!

Chibi Chelsie: IT DOESN'T MATTER! JUST RUN! Q~Q

*The group races madly down the corridoors and duck back into the children's room. All the Chibis shove one of the cot-beds infront of the door*

Chibi Liam: S-She won't be able to get in now right? right? Q~Q

*He breaks down in tears and Chibi Missy joins him. They hug and cry like children* 

Chibi Chelsie: Ugh, of course... v.v' 

Chibi Annette: Their affection for one another is sweet. 

Chibi Chelsie: Now, who are YOU?

Chibi Annette: I am Annette. It is very nice to meet you. 

Chibi Chelsie: Annette?! 

*Chibi Chelsie puts her hand inside her pocket and pulls out a small gold necklace with the name 'Anne' inscribed on it* 

Chibi Annette: My necklace! :O

*She reaches for it but Chibi Chelsie holds it just out of her reach* 

Chibi Chelsie: I found this inside a skull. HOW ON EARTH DID IT GET THERE?!

*Chibi Missy and Chibi Liam rejoin, sniffling and wiping their eyes. Chibi Annette looks at the floor*

Chibi Annette: I... I don't know...

Chibi Chelsie: YOU SAID THIS WAS YOUR NECKLACE! WHY WOULD IT BE INSIDE A SKULL IN THE CELLAR!

Chibi Annette: ... 

Chibi Missy: ~whispers~ The skull is yours, isn't it? 

Chibi Annette: ... Yes.

Chibi Missy: But how Q~Q

Chibi Annette: ~sighs~ It was our Papa. He had a little too much to drink that night. It and the gossip about us had gone straight to his head. Papa was never the type of man to allow himself to be scandalised in such a way. So he decided to get rid of us. He did mother first, smothering her with a pillow while she slept. I don't think she struggled against him, I hope she didn't. Papa could be powerfully strong when he was drunk... 

Chibi Chelsie: How awful... 

Chibi Annette: Then Papa came for us. We were conversing that night, talking within each other's minds like we usually enjoyed late at night, when nobody else could come across us. Papa burst in and spotted us, his mind filling with rage at the sins we were committing. He took it upon himself to purge us of those sins. We did not go easily, we struggled and fought. That made him angry, incredibly angry. My sister clung to his legs and I jumped on his back, trying to make him fall. But he did not fall, instead he threw me from his back and clubbed me hard against the wall. My head became clouded as I slid to the floor. My sister was distraught and instantly ran to my side. Papa then took the lamp from the wall and flung it at us. The very last thing I saw, before I fell into deep unconsciousness where pain could not longer touch me, was my sister becoming ignited and burning like the brightest flame I had ever seen... 

*Chibi Annette fell silent. The other chibis shift uncomfortably, unsure of how to respond to her*

Chibi Annette: When I woke up, something felt strange. I knew I couldn't have possibly survived being set on fire by my Papa and my sister was gone. I couldn't find her again, no matter how hard I looked for her. I don't even remember how long I have been here for...

*The door begins to shake, shaking the bed with it* 

Chibi Missy: Argh! What are we going to do?! 

Chibi Annabella: SISTER?! SISTER?! ARE YOU IN THERE?!

Chibi Annette: My sister is calling for me... 

*The bed flies away from the door and back against the wall. The door flies open and all the chibis cower in the corner, except for Chibi Annette, who stands confidently*

Chibi Annabella: Sister... 

*Chibi Annabella stands in the doorway, her flesh burnt and peeling. She makes a few juddering steps towards Annette, who opens her arms*

Chibi Annette: I'm here sister. I'm here. 

*The two girls embrace and a bright light envelops everything. The other chibis cover their eyes until the bright light fades, leaving behind two small angels*

Chibi Annabella: Sister! I didn't think I was ever going to see you again! Q~Q

Chibi Annetta: Neither did I, but here we are. We're together again. 

*They embrace once more and dissapear in a flash of light, leaving the three chibis huddled together in the room.*

Chibi Missy: Oh, how sweet ^~^

Chibi Liam: ~sniffling~ H-How sad T^T 

Chibi Chelsie: ~yawns~ I'm bored. And tired. And cranky. Let's get out of here. 

*They pull open the bedroom door and walk through onto the porch outside of the house. Chibi Liz, Chibi Ellie and Missy are all standing outside, waiting.* 

Missy: There you three are! We've been waiting out here for hours and it's getting really late! 

*Missy walks over and picks the three of them up and holds them in her palms.* 

Chibi Missy: WAIT! PUT ME DOWN!

*Missy puts her back down. Chibi Missy pulls two pieces of candy out of her bag and leaves them on the porch, before climbing back into Missy's hands*

Missy: Huh. How odd...

Chibi Liz: It seems you had an eventful night, you three. Next time you'll think twice about wondering off into mysterious houses. 

Chibi Chelsie: You got that right. 

*The five of them sit in Missy's hands, watching the world slowly pass by as they walk back towards their house. All the Chibis fall alseep together, tired from their busy evening.* 

Missy: How sweet, they're all tired from their little adventures. 

*Missy places the chibis down in their makeshift beds and tucks them in. She notices a glitter in the middle of Chibi Chelsie's palm. She gently pulls the tiny golden chain from her hands, the name 'Anne' clearly inscribed in the gold.*

Missy: Anne, huh? I wonder where she found this. Oh well, that's a question for tomorrow. 

*She places the little chain onto her desk and looks out at the moon, which is now shining round and full* 

Missy: ~shrugs~ It's like they say. Strange things happen when it's a full moon. 

Halloween END.
