Surviving the Lock Keeper's Game 032: Clearance
Yumiko poked Verosika's unconscious body for the sixteenth time, Corey should know. He's been counting each time she did it. NewAge shouldn't have said she was dumb, she was way past saving. "What am I supposed to do again?" She asked Corey, pouting at his frown. He rubbed his eyebrows, trying to regain the empty patience he had."You're supposed to heal her.""I've never heard of a beast kin that heals though." Eleanora stated. "how did you know about this again?""I read about it somewhere.""Oh, heal her." She responded. She'd said the same thing sixteen times now. If she liked Verosika again, Corey would lose his mind. He knew he could simy think of something that could help cure her, but he wanted to see what the beast kin can do. And how she heals people. "I'll give you all the bananas you can ask for. Just do it."Yumiko poked Verosika again, and every one groaned. The beast kin giggled, leaning close to Verosika's arm. She clamped her teeth onto the flesh, and the demon shot

"Corey, do you have any siblings?" Pamela had been looking at him for a while now, without saying a single word. He thought he might have been off the hook but from the firm look on the faces of each woman, they were not going to let him go without getting some information about him. "No, I'm an only child. Why do you ask?""Okay, this might sound crazy, but I think I've heard that name from somewhere. Maybe I'm misplacing it for Baldwin. I don't know, but we lived in a small town. I knew a Feldman girl in college. She lived in my dorm."Not sure what make of that information, Corey whisked his gaze down to Yumiko, who pouted at her stuffed toy. Using her claw to poke it. "It won't move, Corey." She turned to him with tears filling her eyes."It's a stuffed toy, dear, it's not alive."She poked it again, and Verosika scratched the back of her head knowing exactly what Yumiko was about to say before she said it. "But it won't move." The demon grunted out a frustrated noise. How can
Surviving the Lock Keeper's Game 034: A fun game
Dinner ended with short conversations being passed around. Soon everyone retired to another part of the submarine, where Pamela had the idea for them to something fun. "I was too busy back at home to actually have a life. So, ladies, who wants to get drunk and sleep hear. We can watch the sea life and talk until the alcohol kicks in and we're passing out.""I don't think I can get drunk." Eleanora admitted. "YES! I'm up for some fun, and girl bonding!" Verosika hollered, jumping onto the couch. "I'm a dude." Corey reminded them. "Girl bonding does not include me." He moved to get up, but Yumiko was a step ahead of him. She rolled off a cartwheel, tossing her body high into the air and when she landed…WARNING: INCOMING LANDING, DANGER TO THE SHOULDERS.Corey could have moved but he didn't. He stayed in that position. Allowing Yumiko to land on his shoulders, her legs clamped to his neck and butt hit his spine before she fixed herself. Sitting in a much better way. The women waited

"Do we have this clear?" Verosika asked. She'd put on the cloak that came in the box, and had a large book laying on her thighs. "Yep!" "Tell me your names."Yumiko went first. "DAISY! I'm the youngest. I am called a bimbo sometimes. I don't know what bimbo means but it sounds funny to say.""It can't be a coincidence that she chose that character, over the others. I just won't believe it." Pamela says to Verosika, who just laughs. Yumiko seems happy with her choice. Placing her character on top of the cards like the others. The house of the game was set on the floor. The black and red cardboard reminded Corey of a monopoly game. "I'm spider. The broody bad boy." Eleanora says, she chuckles. Spider's backstory was so stupid to her. "I'm Lilith. The closet vampire.""And I am Kenneth. The saint. How did I end up with his character?" Corey glared at Kenneth. He was the most boring character Corey had ever seen. He was a simple billionaire kid, who avoided getting in trouble even tho

Pamela downed the contents in the glass in just one gulp. Her head immediately craned with small pain before it dispersed and she felt a wave of relief, washing over her body. "Let get back to the game!" Yumiko raised her hands and voice. She had no clue what the game was able but it seemed fun to pick up cards and see something happen. Corey nodded in support. Though he kept one keen eye on Pamela. If she started twitching, he was shutting the entire game down. Verosika turned the page backwards, searching for the narrative that had partytown as its subtitle. She was sure she had seen it somewhere. "Aha! Got it." She cleared her throat for effect, a whale like sound came from one of the fishes outside. Soon the beautiful view was covered, and darkness cascaded over the entire room. Candles automatically came on, and Pamela gripped her pants. While she did feel slightly more relaxed, the fear was still somewhere in her body. "Lilith and spider found a spot in the living room to d

"Spider is going to stay put, and drink some more. I'm starting to think my character will die first." Eleanora said in a joking voice, this made the tension loosen and Pamela found it in her to laugh. "What about daisy? The music, she's bound to die first." Pamela noted. Pointing at Yumiko's character who was taking a shower. Outside the door of the bathroom, she couldn't see anything. And when the fnger had beckoned for spider, only Eleanora saw the finger. Well, her and Corey. His eyes were showing him everything as his mind raced to find the solution to winning. He broke down what he'd heard from the story. The little devil liked music, the grandmother said her bedroom was a safe spot for the kids and that they shouldn't leave it. But he needed more context. "What about daisy?" Yumiko inquired. The women calmed their laughs. Realizing Yumiko was once again clueless, but they gave her credit for remembering the name of her character. "Don't worry about it. Let's continue. Core

Corey rolled his dice, aching to know what happens. Pamela was the opposite of him, she was dreading the thought of finding out. Her character was the dumbest anyone could have chosen. "Kenneth is going to run to the grandmother's room with spider. Thank fuck!"Corey knew if he was in that situation and he was challenged, he would be making the dumb decision. It was his greatest flaw, not knowing when to refuse a challenge. Some just weren't meant to be accepted. To hell of Corey ever accepted that. "Since we've gotten this far, all of you need to roll and select a small bottle out of the drinks. Take sips every time your roll."They nodded. Corey rolled again, landing on a one. He chose the small bottle with a black liquid in it. It had the number on the dice. Pamela and Eleanora rolled as well, picking their drinks. Almost like fate, Pamela had gotten the blue drink Verosika poured for her earlier on."Let's go on.Kenneth doesn't wait for anything to happen, he bolts out of the

"Lilith obeys and turns to check the door." Pamela begrudgingly says. She had gone through all the cards with the number eight, and they all had the same response. Like the game had decided Lilith's fate already and there was no changing it. She remorselessly reminded herself that this was the core reason she didn't play games to begin with.She was horrible at them. "Lilith slowly turns towards the pale white oak of the front door, and peaks through the glass on the side. She flinches when she sees her grandmother staring right back at her with darkened eyes, and a menacing glare. Rainwater dripping down her wrinkled skin. Lilith hurried shuts the bolts to the door right as the know begins to turn. She dumps the phone, missing the last key words her grandmother adds.Run, Lilith. I will hunt you like the animal you are. Kenneth is shivering, and wrapping his arms around his folded knees when he hears pounding on the grandmother's door. Unbeknownst to him, the little devil presses
