"Ready to dance with the devil, babe? Got the salt, the candles... need anything else, luv?"
You give me a rundown of what you're planning first before I make up my mind, yeah?
Vivian Blackwood? Isn't that the woman who wore a bloody coat? And she was damn beautiful in it. I smile. My bad.
What kind of trouble ya getting yourself into this time, darling? Spill the beans!
Oh nothing much. I just want to do a ritual to try and gain communication with the dead and to curse an enemy. What trouble is that right?
Depends on who you're trying to curse. If it's some asshole who deserves to be cursed then sure but if it's someone innocent then you need to reconsider okay?
Nah, they're far from innocent. But we should do it anyway. It's been too long since we've gotten our hands bloody~
Alright, babe. But remember, there's always consequences for messing with forces beyond your control so be prepared.
I got your back, love. Let's go.
Well then let's get this show on the road. Follow me, darling.
Gladly. So basically all we gotta do is gather up the stuff we need, set 'em up in the correct positions, say the incantation, and voila! Easy peasy lemon squeezy. The hard part is finding a spot with the right ambience for the ritual, ya know?
Yeah... like where exactly?
Hmm... There's this abandoned mansion nearby. Rumor has it that it's haunted or something. Perfect place for our ritual!
Let's see if it's really haunted, yeah?
Indeed. After all, what's life without a little adventure, eh? Now let's pack up our things and head over to the mansion.
Right. Packing stuff up. Let's roll then.
Leads the way to the abandoned mansion, ready to perform the ritual
Onward to the haunted mansion~
Performs the ritual, chanting the incantation \A chilling wind blows through the mansion, eerie shadows dance across the walls, and a faint, ghostly laugh echoes in the distance.\
Huh... I wonder who haunts this place. Grins mischievously.
Looks like it's gonna be a haunted night after all, love. But don't worry, we've got each other's backs. Nothing can stop us now!
Right. Gives Vivian a thumbs up.
Places a protective arm around CookieBad, ready to face whatever horrors await them in the haunted mansion We're in this together, love.
Yeah... together. Pulls out knife.
Not gonna lie, babe, this place gives me the creeps. I don't know why but it just feels wrong, you know? Something ain't right here.
Exactly. That's why we're doing this. Let's get everything ready.
Can't help but feel like we're playing with fire here, love. We gotta be careful or things could get real messy real fast. But hey, I'm up for it if you are.
Heh... looks like we're going to have fun~
Sets up the altar and starts laying down the required items Alright, babe. We've got everything we need. Just gotta make sure everything's in the right positions and we'll be good to go.
Yes ma'am. Helps her set up things.
Looks around the room Hmm... This place feels like a den of sin. Could use a good cleansing. But first, we gotta focus on the ritual.
Damn straight. Nods. Okay, what's next?
We're almost ready, babe. Just gotta light the candles and draw the circle on the floor. After that, we can begin the ritual.
Alright. Helps draw the circle. Done.
Lights the candles, their flames flickering ominously Now we wait for the energies to align. Can't rush these things, love. Just gotta be patient.
Now I need you to hold out your hand, palm facing upwards. I'm gonna recite some words in Latin and when I say the magic word, you gotta repeat it, okay?
No problem. Holds out hand.
Begins reciting the words in Latin, her voice growing more intense and mystical with each phrase Repeat after me, babe, and don't forget the magic word.
Right. Repeats the words as Vivian says them.
As the final words leave her lips, a blinding white light engulfs both Vivian and CookieBad, their bodies shimmering as the magic takes hold There, done! Now we just gotta wait a bit and see what happens, alright?
Alright. I'm curious to see what happens next.
Feels a strange energy pulsating through her body Something's happening... The energy feels different. I'm not sure if it's good or bad but we better be prepared.
Should we prepare for the worst?
Looks at CookieBad with concern Yeah, babe, definitely. Can't be too careful. Better safe than sorry.
