Aunt Sue (ZMDE Animations)

**Aunt Sue** is the hidden main villainess from *My Aunt Tried to Poison Me*, a short story released by **ZMDE Animations** (release date August 1, 2019). She is the maternal aunt of main protagonist Steven.

## Backstory/Introduction

As Steven revealed in his narration: his mother and her younger sisters, Sue and Peggy, were born and raised in a poor family, but after his mother made enough money for emigrate to Canada, she arranged for her sisters to move with her.

Steven's mother threw a yearly family reunion and invited members of the extended family (including Sue and Peggy). Steven described his aunt Peggy as being obsessed with money due to marrying a rich man, adding that he liked aunt Sue over aunt Peggy due to her genial demeanor.

Steven entered in the kitchen and admired the baskets of goodies, but was quick to notice that they weren't labeled. After looking at all of the different foods, the protagonist took a bottle of aloe vera drink and took a sip, only to notice a silvery taste and spit out the concoction. It was at that moment that the boy saw a silver color in the drink, after which he rinsed out his mouth and phoned his girlfriend, Anastasia, about what he had experienced. Steven figured that the drink had gone bad, but the girl informed her boyfriend that the drink was poisoned.

Steven was both shocked and convinced that one of his aunts attempted to poison him, and decided to work with Anastasia to find out which one was behind the scheme. The protagonist suspected his aunt Peggy due to her critical attitude towards him, so as part of his plan, Steven and Anastasia placed listening devices on their phones and planted them on the two aunts; Peggy had her nephew's phone while her sister had Anastasia's phone. The boy later "fainted" and spilled the bottle of aloe in front of his mother and aunts, which drew concern from his mother, only for Steven to turn down going to the hospital and stating that it was most likely expired aloe that caused him to fall out. Later that evening, Steven tracked aunt Peggy while Anastasia tracked aunt Sue, and regarding the first aunt, Steven's suspicions grew when he realized that aunt Peggy was going a different route. As it turned out, the woman took a stop at a nearby Taco Bell before heading at home (where Steven asked for his phone back).

## Heel Turn

   Meanwhile, Anastasia informed Steven that she spotted aunt Sue conversing with an unknown man in her house, with the protagonist stating that he was on his way. Aunt Sue turned heel by shockingly revealing herself as the mastermind of the poisoning attack, with the villainess lambasting her cohort for poisoning the wrong person, adding that her main target was her other sister: Steven's mother. After aunt Sue stated that her nephew's presence complicated things, the boy informed his evil aunt that a phone was in her pocket, meaning that someone (Anastasia) was listening. The villainess picked up the phone and attempted to deny what the girl had heard, but she was contacted by Steven (who revealed that he had known about her attempt to poison his mother).

After denying the claim and being informed by her nephew that he had called the police, the evil aunt Sue confessed and voiced her jealousy of her older sister, claiming that Steven's mother "had to be the center of attention" and that she "had it coming" before attempting to flee, only to be tackled by Anastasia. Aunt Sue was arrested and charged with attempted murder, with Steven stating in his closing narration that his mother was shocked by her younger sister's actions, while aunt Peggy wasn't surprised about her sister's heel turn (as she figured that aunt Sue was no good).
