Murder Time, Fun Time

Masquerade Ball

Sarah eagerly watched as her mother took a bite and suddenly her mother started coughing and wheezing trying to get air. Her face turned pale and her lips a blueish color as she started to foam at the mouth and yet still alive trying to grasp the air to breath. Sarah was trying so hard not to laugh at her mother, but she couldn’t help herself and then her mother died. The maid rushed over and tried for a pulse, she shook her head, got up and said, “I’m sorry miss…but…she’s gone…” and walked away trying not to cry.

However, Sarah was delighted, although, this meant that her love was in the lead and she had to think fast to be in first place. She grabbed the sharpest knife on the table and hid it behind her back and walked up to the waiter and asked, “How is your morning so far Jeremiah?”

He replied with “very well m…” and she slit his throat grinning a wicked grin then dropped the knife and walked over to Damon.

“Now we’re at a tie” winked and walked into the library. He followed her just like she planned and then...

...

The old maid looked very uneasy, like she was afraid. The 15-year-old girl was worried for her, but what could she do? She was an orphan really... Born from who murderers and she only wanted to learn about her parents, so she wouldn’t make the mistakes and bad decisions they did. So, she asked “Ma’am? Are you alright? You look a little pale.”

The maid didn’t answer as she looked out the window toward the Blairfyre mansion. Then replied “Yes, I am miss, but you’re not old enough to hear this part of the story. So, I’ll skip ahead.” And so, she did…

...

Sarah laid in her parent’s old room next to Damon smiling. Damon and she had just murdered 14 people in the mansion so far, which had them at another tie and she had to think of another way to win this game of theirs. Maybe they could have a ball and invite people from all around to kill them all for their pleasure? Yes! that is just what they needed! although it won’t be an easy task to do.

“That was joyous wasn’t it, my Beloved?” Damon said with a smirk.

“Yes, it was my love and I can’t wait to play some more,” she replies as she turns toward him and adds “What do you think about a ball for our final event since we seem to be stuck at a tie?”

He thinks and then says “That is a marvelous idea! And we can also invite a few other people from the next country. I know a few people” he smiles and kisses her cheek.” We must get started with the decor because I already have a list for us.”

So, they started planning and got all the decorations up. They decided to have a masquerade ball, so no one would know who was killing, so they could continue their little game of torture and death.

The ball has started, and Damon locked all of the doors, so no one could escape. It was perfect. Now all they needed was a winner. There was at least 53 people other than them in the ballroom they could use, and the odd number meant that they would definitely have a winner. So, it began.

Sarah started the killing by slitting the neck of a man and his wife and others screamed in terror. Blood gushing everywhere and bodies plopping on the ground as they both started killing. Screams of torture and agony could be heard from the outside but no one paid any attention. No one even know the horrors that were occurring in this lovely house.

“Stop! Please! I’ll pay you anything!” a man pulls out money and trembles. Sarah smirked at the man, taking his money.

“Thanks, you” and hacked his limbs off. One. By. One. As he begged her to stop, Blood gushing from his body, as she laughed insanely and then. ‘Plop’ his head went from his body. She laughed again “try to beat a score of 13 people thus far my beloved!” she looked at him as he smirked backed slowly slitting a woman’s jugular wide open.

“You’ll have to do better than that my love. This is my 15th person.” he chuckled, and the slaughter began once more. Within the next 2 hours, everyone was dead, with Damon as the winner. Sarah couldn’t believe it. She thought she was going to win. They decided to go to the bedroom and celebrate.

This night they covered themselves in the blood of their victims and made love.
