Another Proxy ( No Longer Updating)

A New Helper, Chapter 6

Carrie sat in the front of the Creepypasta household, waiting for Jack. It had been a while since he had asked her to kill with him. She sat on the steps, kicking her legs back and forth. Her ears pricked when she heard leaves rustle from beyond the trees. Carrie got down and quietly walked to the trees, knives in hand.

She peeked behind trees and bushes until she found a bush that hid a person. The girl reeled back, snarling. She had multicolored neon hair, with horns curling out the sides. This girl had two different colored eyes, to top it off. Carrie put away her knives and lifted her hands.

"I'm not gonna hurt you." She said.

"I don't believe that. You have an advantage over me. You have two knives and I can tell that you have a smart mind about strategies. I can tell by your eye movement, searching me to see if I'm a threat. I'm unarmed, I can tell you that." the girl snarled.

Carrie put her arms down and squatted to the girls level. She looked into the girls eyes.

"I'm Carrie. Who are you?"

"I call myself Nico."

"Nice to meet you." Carrie held out her hand.

Nico warily took it, her jacket sleeve covering her hand. Carrie seized her chance and shoved her hand into the girl's sleeve, gripping her hand. Her free hand moved the long sleeve out of the way to expose her arm. Nico flinched at the sight of her own arm. Stitches held closed multiple cuts. They were home done, due to the way they were lopsided.

"You do this yourself?"

"Yeah. I had to do what I had to do, ya know?"

"Come with me?" she held out her hand.

Nico took her hand. Carrie smiled but it disappeared as soon as it was there. Nico twisted behind her, catching her arm and holding it behind her back. She pulled out both knives and placed one of them in her hoodie pockets. The other was pushed up against her throat. Carrie swallowed, sending a small prick of pain through her neck. It amazed her how fast Nico was.

"I don't want to hurt you or anyone else. I just need some food." Nico whispered into Carrie's ear.

"Let me go and I'll get you some."

"I don't believe you."

"Why not. I'm being truthful here."

Nico stood silent for a few seconds before releasing Carrie.

"I'm keepin' these." Nico gestured with the knife.

Nico followed behind Carrie, knife out and posed to strike. Carrie didn't break her promise but wasn't surprised to so Jack standing there, tapping his foot with his arms crossed. Carrie turned to Nico.

"My partner is up there so you have to stay calm. He's going to question you before you come into the house."

"O-okay."

Carrie continued to walk and smiled at Jack.

"Where the hell have you been? And who the hell is that?" he pointed to Nico.

"I'm Nico."

"I've been out in the woods. I heard a noise so I went to check it out and it was Nico. She's hungry and needs some food and a place to stay." Carrie said.

"Why would you bring her into the house? She isn't even one of us."

"Have you seen the sides of her head? You can't see a few other things but she's pretty messed up."
