Chapter 2 - “All are two-faced”

Up above, sat a young woman at the top of the fountain, her white hair flowing through the subtle city breeze, as the light reflected brightly off her red eyes.

"I can't believe you fell! What a dumbass!"

The girl spoke in an irratating Texan accent, laughing upon Morell as they pulled themselves out of the fountain, examining the girl thoroughly.

"You, you have a face…?"

Morell spoke, water dripping off of themselves as they continued wringing the water out of their clothing, and then their hair.

"Why, of course I do! You must be knew here, but you look kind of familiar…"

The girl dropped down from the fountain, leaning in close to get a good look of Morell, stroking her chin as she did so.

"Must be a coincidence! All you little yellow people look the same to me anyways!"

She exclaimed, giggling to herself as she grabbed Morell's hand, shaking it exaggeratingly.

"My name is Reece, what's yours?"

Morell was a bit startled by the extroverted girl, as she reached for her nametag, reading it once more before letting out a sigh, and speaking.

"My name is Morell, I believe."

Reece's eyes slightly widen, as she suddenly snatches Morell by their hair, holding them up.

"That can't be true! You should be fucking dead! You're whole family tree was said to be wiped out… Follow me!"

Reece began running off, literally dragging Morell on the ground without a care, as Morell held on to her wrist tightly, afraid that their hair would be ripped off, as they loudly yelled.

"Slow down! You're gonna kill me!"

Morell yanked on Reece's arms, pulling themselves up onto her back, as Reece then tripped from the weight, stumbling down, Morell falling down in front of her, as Reece sat up, rubbing her head.

"Ow.. What the hell!?"

Reece got up, dashing towards Morell as she lifted them up by their top, before punching them back down. Morell stumbled back once more, though quickly getting back up as she stared at Reece, holding a palm out as a form of defense.

"I'm trying to help you, why would you do that..!?"

Reece yelled, her hand slowly lowering to her side, as she reached under her skirt, pulling out a knife holstered underneath it.

"I get it.. you're an imposter, aren't you!? You got my hopes up, but you're no Morell!"

Reece dashed towards Morell once more, swinging the knife towards them. Morell, in response, cowered under their arms, the knife hacking deep into the plastic of their wrists, expecting immense pain, but as a doll they felt none.

"What's wrong!? Fight back, coward!"

Reece kicked Morell back in the stomach, her knife pulled out from their wrists, as she quickly continued, thrusting her knife towards Morell's stomach.

"No.. No.. I didn't mean to lie.. forgive me…"

Morell muttered under their breath, looking at her wrists as a black liquid leaked out, they couldn't feel the pain, but they knew it was there. The world was as if in slow motion, Morell watching as Reece's knife approached, bit by bit by the second, Morell knowing they were but only helpless.

Morell's breath slowed down, going to a halt as their eyes closed, the sound of their blood dripping against the ground filling their ears, as images flooded their mind, a similar scenario, but with different lives.

Morell's eyes fluttered back open, as they took a step forwards, moving in the blink of an eye, as they held onto Reece's wrist, their other hand holding her shoulder, as Morell tore her arm clean off.

The screams of Reece were heard, blood spraying out from where her arm once was, as she placed her hand over the womb.

"I'm gonna fucking kill you!!!"

Reece tore the front of her shirt apart, revealing a huge monsterous creature fused to her chest, the creature consisting of a grey, fleshy mass, with one eye, and a disgusting mouth that scaled throughout it, remsembling a tumour. Morell quickly took the knife from Reece's amputated arm, holding it forth, as Reece's monsterous mass crawled throughout her body, reforming as her arm.

Reece's newly formed arm had tendrils swerving around itself, her hand formed into a fleshy blade, the mouth on the edge, rotating like a chainsaw, as she dashed back towards Morell, swinging her arm down upon them.

Morell blocked the attack with their knife, sparks flying, but the knife was too small compared to Reece's arm, as Morell is pushed back. Morell knows they must change their way of approach, as Reece sends her tendrils towards them.

Morell, instead of blocking, began dodging the tendrils, slicing them off when they were unavoidable, as she made her way towards Reece, body-checking into her, as the knife entered her heart.

They both collapsed on one another, Morell sawing their knife back and forth up Reece's chest, as Reece screamed in pain, the teeth of her hand spinning more quickly, as she began slicing Morell's back in return.

Morell's blood poured from their back, leaking down to the ground. Morell knew they had to finish this quicker, letting go of the knife as they began punching Reece in the face, her face bruising and turning into a blood pulp, but regardless, Reece only attacked more violently, beginning to hack her arm at Morell's back.

It was a race to who killed who first, the two hitting harder and harder, as they were both at the brink of death, throwing a last punch. Morell's hand, covered in their black blood, lifted up high, before being sent down, the blood dripping up in the sky.

The blood formed into a circle above, forming a portal in between, as suddenly, a giant, demonic fist punched out, splatting Reece's head into a bloody puddle, the ground forming into a crater, as Reece's arm lowered to the ground.

Morell sat up on their knees, reaching to their back to check the damage, as they slowly stood back up. Morell looked down at their hand, punching forth, though nothing happened this time.

As blood continued to pour from their back, they were losing consciousness without even realizing, stumbling down on one leg, before falling flat on their face, laying their, still, with the little blood that remained in the hollow doll.
