Reese hopped down from the ceiling. She looked down at the once alive bird creature, proud of what she just did.

  Ashley walked up next to her, looking down at the creature as well. “You really were fucking around with me,” She turned to the elf with a smirk. “You bitch! I actually thought you were useless.”

  “Just because someone lets the flashy person do the hard work doesn’t mean they’re lazy,” Reese laughed. “It just means they work smarter, not harder.”

  “There’s nothing like that,” Roper commented from the crowd with a chuckle.

  “An elf clown with frog-like abilities,” Ashley said. “I gotta admit, never seen one of those before.”

  “You two are very impressive,” The announcer said. “But you gotta remember you only just took out one part of a team. I’ve seen his partner and boy,” He chuckled. “I don’t think he’s gonna like that.”

  “You’re right… I don’t,” The partner in question commented. Ashley looked over at him to see a purple zombie. His body looked like it was practically falling apart, more so than any other zombie she’s ever seen. His Orange clothes were torn up, and his eyes were blood red.

  “…Are you sure you’re up for this?” Ashley asked. “You look like you’ll break down if I so much as flick you.”

  “Just like you, I’ve been kicking ass all night,” The zombie, replied cracking his head. “Looks like you’re last.”

  “So you’re planning to kick my ass, huh?” Ashley asked. She gave a sadistic smirk. “Let’s see if you can keep that promise.”

  She sprinted towards the zombie, her scythe raised, ready to finish this quickly and collect the prize. Her eyes would go wide when the zombie sent a fireball at her. Just before it could hit her, she vanished, appearing behind him moments after.

  “Whoa there!” Ashley grinned. “Didn’t see that coming.”

  The zombie merely smirked back at her. “They don’t call me Pithand for nothing.”

  “Don’t worry, Ash!” Reese said, hopping up in the air. “I’ll take care of this guy!”

  She shot her tongue down at Pithand. The zombie stood there, seemingly not noticing what was happening until the tongue reached him. Unfortunately for Reese, he would grab it and she would feel a painful burn.

  “Ow!” Reese cried as she got down. “Fuck! Fuck!” She started trying to fan her tongue.

  “I don’t think that’s gonna work,” Ashley said, rolling her eyes. “Just get water or something after I’m finished with this guy.”

  “Oh, she won’t have time for that,” Pithand chuckled evilly. “Because both of you will be reduced to ash by the time I’m done with you.”

  Ashley let out a yawn. “Is that all you got? You know like probably every freaky villain ever has said that, right? Come on, be a little more original.”

  Pithand growled and shot another fireball at her. Ashley would disappear again, causing the zombie to shoot fire all around him, which Reese had to run away from.

  Ashley would reappear just above him, swinging her scythe down at him.
