Vicious Minds (Children of Vice 4) - Page 35
BANG!
She didn’t stop firing until the clip was empty and just as quickly as she entered the room, the woman stumbled out covered in blood. Calliope lifted the antidote to her but before she could take it, Calliope stuffed it into her mouth.
“No! You said you’d give it to me.”
“Relax,” Calliope reached into her pocket and dropped half a dozen hotel mints on the ground in front of her. “They’re free with each stay.”
She’s fucking evil.
The woman, not getting it, opened the wrappers, and sure enough they were the same shape and color as the one Calliope called the ‘antidote.’
“I don’t understand…” the woman whispered. “The poison—”
“Poison?” Calliope frowned, biting into the mint. “What poison?”
“You threw poison on my face—”
“Poison? Me? It was salt,” Calliope said, faking confusion. “The script said throw salt at you, not poison.”
What? What script?
“Huh? Script?” the woman whispered.
Calliope nodded and looked over to me. “For his movie? Aren’t you auditioning too?”
I’m fucking lost.
“Auditioning?” The woman was just as lost as I fucking was.
“Yeah…where is the other guy?” Calliope asked, walking around her and moving to the bathroom. “Hey, dude, scene’s over, come on out.”
She knocked.
“Hello?” She peeked inside and then screamed. She screamed so loud I flinched. She ran back to the leather-clad woman. “What did you do? You killed him!”
“You…I…you told me to!”
“It was just an audition, what have you done?” Calliope’s eyes filled with tears as she stepped back. “You killed him.”
“No…no….”
“You killed him!” Calliope pointed to her before reaching for the phone, and the woman grabbed her arm.
“It was your gun!”
This is an epic clusterfuck, I thought, watching this foolishness.
“We need to call the police, it was an accident—”
“NO! I SAID NO!” The woman screamed, picking up the gun again and pointing it at Calliope.
Does she really not realize she’s out of bullets?
“Okay,” Calliope whispered, holding her hands up. “You escape from the balcony. I’ll stay. I’ll explain….”
The woman relaxed and looked over to me. I just stared back at her.
“Don’t worry, he’s deaf, he still thinks this is part of the script,” Calliope added for the woman, who seemed to be having a mental breakdown.
