Snuff That Girl
Erasers
There was really no way I could've seen it coming – one minute I was tied up, crying about Fang, who'd just been thrown off a building to his death – and then three Erasers had grabbed me, ran with me, and thrown me into a room. There, two more Erasers picked me up and tossed me into a chair, tying me up again. They were grinning, morphing back into their human forms. Their clothes were dirty and ragged. Half were females, who were laughing evilly, and the males were looking at me hungrily.
I pushed all my feelings aside about Fang – I would deal with that later. It wasn't necessary that he was dead. He could've survived, somehow. He was Fang. False hope sprouted in my heart and I felt better.
One Eraser was lecturing the others. "Whaddya think they talk about in those quorums – how good we are?! So listen up, now! Any second, the other mutants, or Jeb, or someone, is gonna bust in here and bust us up like a bunch of overripe cantaloupes! So, I say as long as our juice has gotta spill – all over this floor, here – her juice has gotta spill, too! Batchedler juice! Then we'll see who's better than who!"
He stepped away from me, as I was now gagged and tied up. Then, ha, oh then, he did something I'd been seeing too much more – song and dance. Yes. He started dancing. It almost scared me, but it wasn't like I could've responded or shown that.
"Look at her there, all bound up, gagged and tied, with her head full of hair and her heart full of pride! Well, boys, I've had enough of each arrogant curl – bing, bang, boom! Let's get tough, playin' rough, snuff that girl!"
There was a giddy, demonic chuckle trough the group. A small girl, maybe Gazzy's age, already an Eraser, said, "'Snuff that girl?!' But killing people is wrong!" She threw her head back and roared with laughter.
"Then why does it feel so right?" one of the older Eraser women asked. Then she was singing as well. "Look at us here, in a hole, on the lam. With our hearts full of fear – what a rip! What a sham! You know, Jeb will be here bustin' heads mighty quick – !"
The first guy came in, "But we'll beat them to the punch if we snuff out that chick!"
The woman stood beside him. "We tried doin' what we should!"
"Wasn't glad!" he finished.
"Then we learned that feelin' good – "
"Means doin' bad!"
Then the two of them were dancing, singing together. "Nuts, they fall close, so they say, to the tree. Looky here, here's an acorn from Batch'dler, I see. I say, she is the nut, and of course, we're the squirrel! She is what we saved for winter, so let's snuff that girl!"
"Bing!" the man shouted.
"Bing!" another guy repeated from the crowd.
"Bing bang!" the woman shouted, and she was echoed as well:
"A-bing bang boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Yeeeeaaaah!"
"Okay, now, snuff!"
"Snuff the girl!"
"Yeeeaaaaah!"
"Snuff the girl!"
"Snuf her!"
"Oh yeah, now, go!"
"Snuff the girl!"
"Yeah!"
"Snuff the girl!"
"Yeah, snuff the girl!" They all shouted, and then began to sing again. "This is the end, roll the dice, place your bets! In this miserable world, that's as good as it gets! So now, let's live it up, eat the oyster and the pearl, and let's get this party jumpin' – "
They paused for a moment, and everyone continued pandemonium; singing and leaping, flipping, jumping all around me.
"Really get it pumpin', get this party jumpin', yeah, let's snuff that – "
There was an insane drum solo from nowhere, and all around me, Erasers cartwheeled and flipped in, landing in poses around me. "Snuff that girl!"
