6: The Strangest of Dreams
I know you all say that dreams have hidden meanings, but mine are pretty fucking direct. If I have heartache over some boy or girl before bed, I am gonna have a dream about either caving their face in or crying to them. If I am angry when I go to bed, I have dreams about murder. However, there was one odd dream I had. I was going to my uncle's wedding, the bride was an alien who liked to kill people and leave bibles on their bodies, then my uncle had to kill her and married a chicken girl. What is the meaning of THAT dream? I want my uncle to marry a chicken? Some things in my head may be twisted so much that no sense remains, and some things are not twisted enough, and it makes them terrifying. Like the dreams you have about the past or future. Or someone else's.
Allie Queen's could stay in her restless mind until ten o'clock at night, when her dizzying gaze and aching head were too much to handle. She nearly passed out on the loveseat (which Anna and Jasmine fought to claim as theirs). The Weird People just found it plain adorable how she could find sleep at an hour so early. They usually stayed awake until two o'clock in the morning before feeling even a pinch of remote tiredness. It wasn't very wise of Allie to sleep before a semi-rapist, an arsonist, and a cannibal, but she couldn't fight the lack of rest. Besides, this was the only night in a long time she hadn't cried herself to sleep.
"What do you normally dream about?" Chloe Gordan whispered to Jay Erix, propping her elbow up on the fancy cushions a couch over.
The girl's face blowzed. "Oh, ah... Haha, I always forget my dreams..." When in truth, she was always dreaming about the girl she had a crush on... She cleared her throat, and her mind. "How about you?"
"Fire. Murder. Bloodshed. The normal." Chloe had voiced her reply so quickly that there was no indication she was lying. "Sometimes I dream about when I killed my parents."
"Oh..." Jay's throat felt clammy. It felt as if a dull blade was gradually slipping down her chest, yet... She knew what that felt like. This was so much worse. Her tone was quite obviously dipped in disappointment. "Well, how about Anna?"
"Yummy things." Anna licked her lips. "Eating. Satisfying this hunger I have."
"Bo-ring! We do his stuff anyway!" Jasmine didn't even try to keep her voice low for Allie's slumbering sake. "I dream about My Little Pony and Dan and Phil and Markiplier and Homestuck and Naruto and Soul Eater and Jacksepticeye and PewDiePie and Smosh and yaoi and -"
"Hush." Jay smiled despite her suddenly down mood. It was good to have at least one friend not head-over-heels for murder and illegal activity. "You will wake the princess up, sleeping on the couch over there. No way in Hell am I going to bed at this hour, but what'll we do while she sleeps?"
Rape her? Charlie suggested in Jay's mind. You could talk them into letting you. Maybe Anna will help you!
I wish I could get you counseling, Jay replied wearily, smile drooping.
Even if you could, I will never stop. This is the only way we will find love, Jay. Plus, this is all I am. You are gonna have a fun life, right by my side! Cheerful or sinister? Jay wasn't sure which one Charlie was going for. However, she knew one thing. Her Ms. Hyde was telling the truth.
"Ah, more movies?" Anna suggested.
"No way!" Jasmine shouted, making Allie twitch in her sleep. "We have watched all these movies too many times to count!"
"Grand Theft Auto. Skyrim. Some video game where I can set things on fire," Chloe said bluntly.
"Those games aren't multiple player." Jay countered, although Grand Theft Auto wasn't a game she really played (mostly for the act she was afraid Charlie would enjoy the too much). "We could... Read... Or..."
"I will get the Hannibal series!" Chloe Gordan leaped off of the couch, which Anna and Jasmine began tackling each other to get. Jayden placed herself in that seat while they were quarrelling, and gave them a mocking grin. They glowered at her, but retreated back to the floor where they were sitting before.
"I might sleep," Jay said thoughtfully. "I think my dreams would be more entertaining that reading The Shining for the tenth time." Although five of those had been Charlie. "Yeah, I am gonna go to sleep. Sayonara." She buried her face into the couch, just to have Chloe gently sit on her head.
"You are gonna read Hannibal," growled Chloe Gordan.
I am gonna kill people. The urge to answer that way was instinctive, but Jay cut back this time. She bit her tongue, pulling her head away, and said in a husky tone, "I have an idea."
Jasmine leaped up. "Oh, Jay's ideas are much more fun than Hannibal! Let's listen!"
Chloe glowered at her.
"We can go out tonight and kill people. We haven't done that in a while. I mean, I beat up Bobbie, but that isn't the same at all. We can sneak out for a while, then come back and clean up like we used to. Up for it?"
"I was running low on meat anyway," Anna May said, baring her teeth. "Sounds cool."
"Bobbie's house?" Jasmine asked. "I heard him gossiping with Gunter about Chloe. I don't think he learned his lesson."
Jay felt as if fire had been gradually strung throughout her heart, and the urge to kill licked at her mind. Her lower eyelid twitched absentmindedly, and her fists became veiny from how hard she was clenching them. "What did he say about Chloe?"
It didn't shame Jasmine to say. "Said she was ugly. Said he hopes she burns in Hell. Well, who wants to go to Heaven? It is a sin to be yourself there. And all the rules, geez."
"Jesus and God drink beer and fuck bitches in Heaven," Anna stated matter-of-factly. "God likes virgins in particular. But Jesus likes gals with experience."
Jay paid no mind to that rather disturbing view, flaring her nostrils. "Bobbie thinks I am kidding. No joke! I get him. After all, he is more scared of me - well, Charlie - than any of you. And I have something to avenge."
Chloe Gordan tilted her head. "What?"
You are clueless, Chloe. Jay thought, wringing a smile onto her face.
"Doesn't matter, as long as it happens," Anna said. "I will get all the knives and syringes. Let's get ready now, people. To Bobbie's house!"
***
In Middle-Rock, everyone was a slave. Please understand that, while Jasmine was waving a knife around asking to see Bobbie, the Mother could not refuse. Not that she wanted to. Oh, she tried and tried, but she couldn't. No one could refuse. This town was cursed in such a way that everyone's will was strangled. Why? The Weird People didn't know and didn't care. As long as they could do what they loved.
Anna was the first to attack. She twisted towards the Mother, slipping an empty syringe into her neck. It created an air bubble in her blood, which popped and made the skin burst. She licked her lips hungrily and prepared herself a feast.
Next, Jasmine casually strolled up to the Father, who was in his room occupied with R-rated movies and beer. He was genuinely confused before she hit him in the flank of the skull as hard as she could. Leaving straight cuts in his body was more important than hearing the screams. And witut Jim wiggling, she could experiment with the body.
Chloe set the dog, Speck, on fire while it was in its cage, then continued down the house. After Jay was done with Bobbie, she would burn the building. She waited patiently in the living room for her friend, watching Anna slurp on chunks of the Mother's kidneys and intestines.
Meanwhile, Jay had Bobbie strapped to the bed. All she needed was a pocket knife. "This will teach you to pick on people." She flicked the blade up, and it was time to begin.

Allie Queene sat in the darkness, shaken at the horrid dream she'd just had. Murder. Hours of torture and laughter. The screaming of a semi-familiar boy. She shivered at the memory, but knew her dream was soon to fade. Well, what did you expect after watching all of those horror movies?
"Oh, Allie is up!" Jasmine grinned, laughing wickedly. "Want some tap water? Heh, it's the only legal drink we have."
"Jay's coffee," Anna said.
"By legal," the girl corrected irritably, tone bitter. "I mean you won't get killed for it, either."
Allie blinked lazily at them all. They were wearing pajama clothes now, not their casual wear from before. "Did I go to sleep? Why did y'all change clothes?"
Jay smiled, patting her head. "I will bring you home. I don't count on your Mom to be worried cause she's such a bitch, but it's a school day tomorrow. We have things to do."
"Oh, just let me put the new meat in the freezer, alright?" Anna May excused herself before leaving the room, prodding Chloe for help.
Jay took Allie gently by the hand, softly tugging her away from the couch. "Come back anytime. Knock first. And tell me if you need help with anything, because I am in a really good mood."
A\N: Oh, guys, please vote and comment! It makes me so happy when you guys do that! Also, I need some SHIPS! Desperate to ask for ships to my own story, but we all need to feed our inner fangirl. Also, I would be really interested to see who the majority of you want Allie to end up with.
