SUNNY, AUBREY, BASIL, and KEL are all sitting on SUNNY'S bed, a blanket over their heads as they speak in quiet whispers.
KEL: "So how do we summon it?"
AUBREY: "I don't know guys... I'm starting to get second thoughts..."
KEL: "Stop being a baby AUBREY! We'll be fine." KEL says, louder than everyone else in the room.
AUBREY: "Gosh, be quiet KEL!" She whispers. "Do you really want MARI to hear us?"
BASIL: "I think I agree with AUBREY, KEL... SUNNY, what do you think?"
SUNNY nods his head, in approval of continuing the ritual.
BASIL: "O-okay SUNNY... Whatever you say."
KEL: "SUNNY said that for this... We need some blood. Does anyone have that?" He looks around at the other three.
BASIL pulls a vial out of his bag. It's filled with blood.
"I have some."
AUBREY: "Where'd you get that, BASIL?" She looks concerned.
BASIL: "Oh, don't worry about it... On another note, my grandma passed away yesterday."
SUNNY points at the instructions, trying to put the group back on track.
AUBREY: "SUNNY, is that a wiki-how article? Why are you trusting sources like that?"
SUNNY feels a drop of sweat coming down his cheek, but he quickly wipes it away and grabs the vial from BASIL'S hand. He uncorks it and smears the blood on his bed, staining it with crimson.
KEL: "If I did this in my bed, HERO would be so mad..." He says, and shudders, as if thinking about what might happen.
SUNNY draws the symbol of a pentagram on his bed. The other three shuffle away slightly, trying not to get their clothes stained with blood. He motions at BASIL and hands him a slip of paper.
BASIL: He grabs the paper, reading it over. "You want me to read this, SUNNY? It looks like Latin, I think..." BASIL hesitates, but begins reading the incantations.
AUBREY and KEL look at each, slightly worried.
AUBREY: "I hope this will be worth it."
SUNNY nods.
BASIL finishes reading the paper, out of breath.
KEL: "Wow BASIL, I didn't know you spoke Latin!"
BASIL: He smiles. "Yeah, I picked it up overseas!"
AUBREY looks at him, confused. "Overseas...? BASIL, how old are you?"
BASIL: "I'm thir-"
But before he can respond, a flash of light appears, and the blanket flies off of them, as if blown away by a manevolent force.
AUBREY: "What the-"
They all look horrified as a black mass forms together, forming spikes at the bottom made of of seemingly hair, with one large eye in the center.
They all stare, in amazement, but more so horror. SOMETHING stares back.
SUNNY takes a look at the thing in his bed, horrified. He was about to speak, but BASIL cuts him off.
BASIL: "S-stay away! I won't let you hurt my friends!" He says, even while tearing up with fear.
SOMETHING stares at him for a good minute, while everyone else was too frozen with fear to move.
SOMETHING: ... "Why'd you summon me."
BASIL: "H-huh? I don't know... SUNNY was the one who suggested it..."
SOMETHING turns to look at SUNNY with its icy gaze.
SOMETHING: "Why'd you summon me."
SUNNY freezes up with fear.
SUNNY: "I-I don't know... I thought it would be fun..."
SOMETHING looks angry for a second, before turning away.
SOMETHING: "Look, don't summon me again. Or I'll push your sister down the stairs."
And with that ominous statement, it left, leaving behind three traumatized kids.
KEL: "That was cool." He says, grinning.
AUBREY: "W-WHAT? HOW DO YOU THINK THAT WAS COOL? WE COULD'VE DIED, IDIOT!" She yells, scared out of her mind, and turning that fear into angry as she tries her hardest not to beat the shit outta KEL.
KEL: "Gosh, stop yelling AUBREY! You'll make MARI come up here!" KEL saids, the two of them standing up on the bed.
BASIL just sits next to SUNNY, softly crying into his shoulder. SUNNY leans forward and gently whispers into his ear.
SUNNY: "Faggot."
Suddenly, they hear MARI stepping up the stairs. She gently opens the door. (Cultured people will get the reference)
MARI: "Hey guys. I heard the commotion, so I'm checking on you. And I brought cookies! Here you g-"
MARI'S eyes widen in shock.
MARI: "W-WHY IS THERE A BLOOD STAIN ON YOUR SHEETS, SUNNY?"
I dont know how to end a story so, the end, I guess.
