TUESDAY


"And Suzy is the winner of the world banana eating championship! Let's all hear it for our little blonde small town girl!" The announcer shouts which is followed by a roaring crowd.

Not even feeling full, you wipe away the whipped cream on your lips, graciously stand up and bow for your adoring fans. The big dude on your right wearing nothing but chaps and a biker jacket looks at you in disbelief and then turns away to puke in a bucket.

Meanwhile the little Asian She-Male on your left just shakes his head wondering how the hell you could've beaten him.

"I don't understand it...all my training. I glanced over at you during the contest...you...you were barely even chewing! How?" He asks.
"Oh just natural talent at swallowing bananas I suppose." You reply humbly and wink at the audience, which continues to praise you.

While you're blowing kisses at your fans, you suddenly get a feeling you've done something like this before….

Suddenly a hand touches your shoulder and you spin around to see a woman about your age with long raven colored hair and a low cut black gown. She's pretty, but has a sneering look on her face. It's not quite a cruel look, but she's definitely not impressed with you.

"So, you think you got what it takes to meet Misty huh? Pfft. I don't see you lasting another day. Maybe two at best."
"Who is Misty?" you ask.
"(Sigh) Deary, if you don't know, then you'll never know. And if you never know, then how can you ever hope to survive?" the woman says in a condescending tone and then starts laughing at you. She then begins to age rapidly until she becomes a wizened crone and then eventually a rotting corpse.

When you begin to step back, the woman then disappears, but her laughter remains, getting louder and louder to the point being deafening and causing pain.

You futilely attempt to cover your ears, but the laughter persists even when you try to cram left over bananas in your ears.

Meanwhile, the biker turns in a unicorn and the she-male turns into rainbow colored fox which jumps on the back of the unicorn and they run off together. The audience surprisingly has completely disappeared. In fact it's just you and that awful laughter that won't quit.

Just when you think you can't take the pain anymore everything goes black…

You wake up to the sound of a female voice.

"What's going on?!" you exclaim sitting up fast.
"Oh! Sorry! I…I didn't mean to wake you…but I just was told to bring you this." the source of the female voice says.

You rub your eyes and see a young woman with light brown hair before you holding a tray of food. She's probably a few years younger than you.

"…wait…you're Helen right?" you say recognizing her.
"Yes. I didn't think you remembered me. We only saw each other a couple times before." Helen says.
"Yeah I remember you. Where's Bobby?"
"Oh, Bobby's busy doing something with cousin William. I think its something to do with working on the compound here. I'm not really sure. I just tend to look after the little ones, but Bobby told me I should bring you something to eat, so um here."

Helen thrusts the tray of food at you. It consists of typical breakfast type food like scrambled eggs, bacon, cereal and juice. You see no reason not to take the offering seeing as you aren't served like this very often.

"Wow, breakfast in bed. That's something I've never had before." You say and start to eat.

Helen stares at you nervously, which causes you to stop eating.

"What?" you ask.
"Oh! Nothing, I just wanted to make sure you liked it. Is the food good? I really didn't know what to make you and I just wanted it to be right." Helen says.
"It's fine Helen." You say.
"Oh good. I just…I just didn't want to disappoint you."
"It's just breakfast Helen. Relax. Probably way better than anything I could make, I dunno how to cook."
"You don't? Didn't your mother teach you?" Helen asks as if cooking is something every woman knows how to do.
"Nope. She taught me how to sew when I was younger, but I sort of stopped doing it when she died of a flesh-eating virus. Didn't really see the point anymore."
"Oh no, how sad!" Helen says empathetically.
"Yeah." You say continuing to eat.
"Well don't worry, I'm a very good cook and I can even teach you!"
"Hm, well between that offer and this meal, you've probably done more for me than my own family has in years."
"I'm so glad you said that. I want us to get along because I know you're going to be married to Bobby and all."
"Wait, Bobby told you already?" you ask.
"He told everyone last night. He was so happy. I'm so glad he was, I like seeing him happy."
"Hm, I can guess who wasn't happy to hear about it." You remark.
"Oh. Yes. Um…you probably mean Diana. Yes, she was quite upset. Um…in fact I probably should leave. She's looking after the little ones and I'm sure I'll get an earful about being away from my duties for so long. She's in a bad enough mood as it is." Helen says.
"Okay, well sorry to keep you then. I don't want to get you into trouble."
"Oh, it's okay. I'm not really worried about me anyway. It's just if I stay away for too long she might… well she's not as patient as I am with our younger siblings. So are you okay with the food and everything?"
"Yeah Helen."
"Okay good. Good. Um…okay I'm going now. Um, I suppose I'll see you around some time."
"Okay then."

At this point Helen nervously waves and opens the door to leave, but then she calls out to you.

"Um, Suzy?"
"Yes?"
"I'm really glad you're going to be part of this family soon." She says with a faint smile and then leaves.

You shake your head and finish your food. Helen obviously has some issues. Though maybe its because you know what its like to have a bullying older sister, you can sympathize.

After putting aside your food tray you take a shower in the private bathroom connected to the bedroom which is very convenient. While washing up you take time to ponder your odd dream which while having its surreal moments seemed "real" to you in some ways. The raven haired woman in the dream was most certainly Bobby's grandmother which is sort of creepy, but then maybe she just popped up due you seeing pictures of her (and even one in your room) earlier that night. Ultimately you decide not to worry too much about it unless this becomes an ongoing problem.

After your shower, you then change your clothing and decide to explore what is now your new home.

You walk around the right wing of the compound, upstairs and down, not running into anyone. It's all pretty empty on this side which is sort of good you suppose and you're half tempted to just go back to your new room and play on your computer. However, you figure you're going to have to make the effort to be social with everyone so you head over to the central part of the compound where you assume more of Bobby's family is located.

Eventually you get to a large dining area and see a few dirty plates still on the table. The voices of children can be heard a few rooms away and then…

That red headed witch Diana steps out from the kitchen.

She holds a knife in one hand and you notice her hand tighten around its handle when she sees you.

"Look, I don't want any trouble Diana. I know you're mad but…" you start to say before Diana interrupts.
"Spare me your pathetic words blonde whore. You will not sway me with superficial attempts at diplomacy. YOU are in my way, but I promise you that before the week's end, you will be out of it."

When you cautiously step back a bit, Diana smirks.

"You better keep stepping backwards and out the front door if you want to stay out of my way AND keep your pitiful life."

While Diana is doing a fairly adequate job of intimidating you, she's actually starting to make you angry. Like a rage is building up within you and you feel like just picking up one of the forks on one of the dirty plates on the table and stabbing her in the neck with it.

In fact violent visions start to enter your head, visions of bloody bodies and other murderous images. They hit you so suddenly; you actually stumble and keep yourself from falling by propping yourself up against the table. You then rub your head from this spell, as you don't feel completely well.

"Now what? Am I scaring you too much? Are you about to cry? By Tiamat you really are worthless. And that is why you'll never make a good wife to my brother. You're far too weak. My brother will realize that soon." Diana remarks.

As unwell as you suddenly feel, the rage within you is still rising.

You keep calm

You're not going to play her game. Getting into a fight is just going to make things worse. She's all talk anyway, she's just going to bark and not actually do anything.

You just stay silent and try to walk away. Diana however keeps barking.

"Hey, where you going, this isn't over you fucking bitch!" Diana says, but you ignore her and keep walking away.

When you don't respond, Diana moves from barking to biting which involves grabbing you on the shoulder and spinning you around.

"Hey, get your hands off of me!" you say and attempt to push her away. Diana's spoiling for a fight however and grabs your arm with her free hand.

And unfortunately she's also spoiling for your death.

"You're fucking too weak for Bobby, better that I take care of this now. He'll thank me in the long run!" She exclaims and stabs you chest with her knife. You scream in pain and fall back in shock. Diana wastes no time in taking advantage and leaps on you while stabbing the entire time.

While the noise brings the attention of other family members who attempt to pull Diana off of you, but it's already too late, she's hit several vital organs and opened up several of your veins.

"All hail fucking Tiamat and her glorious chaos!" Diana yells in triumph and laughing as your blood is splattered all over her.
