I waited at the table, watching my Dad and Mom laughing, retelling stories of. . . strange events while I wasn't home. Honestly after a while, I said I was done and decided to take a few plates upstairs. They didn't come down, not for dinner or anytime before. I was worried. . . Janna is up to something. I knocked with a free hand as I held the plates in my other.

'Janna, whatever evil thing you are doing, open up!' I ordered, but I turned the handle and the door opened.

The lights were out, I couldn't see anything. I moved forward and put the plates on my desk, as I turned the door shut and I was immediately lost.

'Ok Janna, I'm done playing-'

'Chicken Butt.'

I don't know what happened next. . . things went dark, a lapse in my memory. I woke. . . tied to my bed, the room was still dark, I was stripped to my shirt and boxers. I knew that there were only two possibilities: I was robbed, tied and left while Janna turned Higgs down a dark. . . darker path. And the other. . .

'Ok, go, go!' I heard Janna whispering.

'Ok, I'm done with this! Janna cut me loose, or I swear I will-' a hand slapped across my mouth.

'Shut up!' I heard Janna say, 'were doing you a favor.'

Were?! I tried to say, it only came out like 'Weer?!'

'Come on Higgs, don't keep him waiting.' She yelled, the room lights flicked on and I turned to see it was Higgs that hit them.

But there was no way it was her. She was wearing a red skirt, that ended above her knee level, she had a loose shirt on and her hair was all messed up. She stood there, shifting from foot to foot and hiding her arms behind her back.

'. . . I. . . made a bet.' She said, nervously.

'What?' I asked.

'Yeah, I told her about all the fun stuff we've done together, and now. . . she's gonna do them. . . better.' Janna mused as she grabbed a cloth.

'What?! We've never-guh!' She tied it around my mouth and fastened it behind my head.

'Ok, the floor is yours Higgs. . .' Janna said as she stepped back, 'go on then.'

'. . . Ok. . .' she said as she walked up, she climbed onto the bed and sat down on top of me.

She put her weight on top of me, holding me down by my shoulders as she leaned over me. I could feel her shaking, she looked like she was about to cry, or throw up. . . or kill me. She seemed so uncertain. . . I don't think she wants to do this. . . not like this. . .

'Hig-plsse!' I cried, to no avail.

She did nothing but close her eyes and push her lips onto mine. I didn't struggle, I went with it, Higgs seemed to stop shaking as she went through with it. She pulled away, removing the cloth and kissing me again. After a while she pulled back, she looked down at me and hesitated.

'Whatever she told you. . . none of it was real. . .' I told her, 'I never have. . . with anyone. . .'

'Then why would she. . . just make up all that stuff?' she asked, tears streaking down her face.

'Because she. . . it's in her nature honestly. . . ever since we were little.' I answered, 'she honestly is one of the meanest people I know.'

'Really? I was doing you a solid, Marco.' Janna complained.

'Tying me down and playing with my friends' emotions is the opposite of a solid!' I yelled at her, while she sat on the windowsill, watching innocently.

'Higgs, all this isn't me. . . and I don't think it's you. . .' I told her, 'But I. . . would like to share this with you. . . but without the rope.'

She sat there still, watching me, she leaned forward and kissed me. As I returned it, I felt her tugging at the ropes around my left wrist and my arm was free, my right followed soon after. As she pulled away, I sat upright, wrapping my arms around her.

'Ok. . . how about we go punish Janna together?' I whispered into her ear.

'That sounds- SHES GONE!' she screamed, I looked to the window to she vanished.

'. . . Please tell me you have my wallet?' I asked.

We sat on the park bench, tired of searching all over for Janna. We both sat with juice boxes under the sun while we relaxed. I could tell Higgs was getting impatient, she was tapping her foot furiously while she sat next to me.

'Where else would she be?' she asked.

'Somewhere dark, where she would copy my new personal details. . .' I said, just realizing she wouldn't understand.

'Why wouldn't you let me bring the axe?' she asked.

'Because Janna is evil, but doesn't deserve dismemberment. . .' I told her, 'you cant just cut up everyone you meet. . . and hate here. You need ground rules.'

'. . . do you think. . . this place will be alright for me?' I asked.

I looked up into the sky.

'Yeah, it will be.' I said smiling, before I felt her slide along beside me.

'Ok, nerd.' She said, as she leaned onto my shoulder.

This is it. This is the end game for me. I had fun with these stories and sadly this is the end of a genre. I hope you enjoyed it. Ender out.
