Later in the afternoon in Henderson, a lady with light brown and gray hair closes her spell grimoire with her small spell wand from her desk. She breathes and picks up her fork, picking at her lunch.
"Oh, Carolyn…" The lady said, "Wherever you are, please be okay. I'm getting worried."
The lady cuts her food into small chunks, picks it up with her fork, and slowly eats it. Her assistant knocks on the door.
"Mayor Debra?" The assistant asks. Debra looks up, eyes widened.
"Come in!" She yelled, quickly putting on her black moon witch hat. She sits there, smiling fakely. The assistant comes in.
"Lady Debra, are you okay? You seem to be depressed lately." She asks.
Debra nods.
"ME? Nooo, not depressed at all. Just lots of paperwork for the new neighborhood that is being built next to Anthem Highlands. You know?" Debra said nervously. She looks down at her food, continuing to pick at it with her fork.
"Oh well… I have some bad news.."
Debra looks up. "Hm?" Her eyes widened.
"It's about the mayor of Las Vegas."
"Is she okay?! Please I need to know, I'm worried." Debra said.
"I'm not sure why you would be worried about a mafia Underdonna." The assistant said to herself. "But anyways, do you remember what happened last year when the governor issued an evacuation in Las Vegas?"
"Yes of course. Why?"
"Well. The mayor was involved along with her husband and they…"
The assistant went silent. Debra's eyes widened in shock.
"No… no… you can't be serious??" Debra asks. Her assistant nods.
"How long?" She said as tears fell on her face. "Kate, how long have they been dead and how long were you keeping this information from me?"
"We didn't want to upset you more…We heard that Carolyn was sacrificing herself for her city and—"
"Oh no….." Debra mumbled. "I had a feeling that she would do that. I can't blame her, she's like that. Not only for her city and her family. But for me."
The assistant's eyes widened.
"She is really protective of me. She didn't want anyone to hurt me. Even if someone wanted to hurt me, she wouldn't let it happen. I'm surprised that a wrath demon has some sort of protection in them because they would just go for the kill. But with Carolyn, she's different. She wouldn't kill anyone unless someone provoked her anger.." Debra continued.
"Really? But like, what about the massacre she caused? The fire at FOX5? WHAT ABOUT THE MASSACRE AT THE GALLERIA MALL??
"I don't condone what happened but I know it wasn't her fault. I know it isn't… Carolyn would never hurt me in any way and she meant it. Carolyn AVOIDED to destroy Henderson but unfortunately, she had to follow orders from Michele. It's not up to her to not do it. If she doesn't, she gets hurt and abused."
"So all of what happened in the city was done by Michele? THE One and only Lusty Michele?" the assistant asks.
Debra nods.
"Damn… Lusty Michele. I thought he was in prison for two years because of prostitution but I guess not." The assistant continues.
"She could've got more time but Lombardo said that there wasn't any evidence to convict her during the investigation. The Henderson police chief said there was A WEEK BEFORE JOEY SAID There wasn't any Evidence. And here we are! Michele gets a lesser sentence, Carolyn has to go through her crap and Michele doing lord knows what to her. I just hope that she's okay but now that she's dead. I will make sure Michele won't forget her actions towards the city."
"How long have you and Carolyn been friends?"
"Friends? Carolyn and I are dating."
The assistant's eyes widened.
"Dating?!" She exclaimed. Debra shushes her.
"Well.. we took a break from dating— after the massacre happened. We both agreed to end the relationship. Carolyn felt bad and didn't want to see me suffer more so we made the decision to end it."
"Are you guys going to get back together again if she was hypothetically speaking 'came back alive'?"
"We would've if we decide to get back together again but it has to be broken with a kiss. We sealed our break up with a kiss."
"Aww man, I'm sorry Debra." she said. "Will you be okay?"
"Umm.. yeah.. I'll– I'll be okay." Debra said, nervously smiling. The assistant nods and smiles.
"Okay. I'll come back to check up on you."
"Thank you, I appreciate that."
The assistant walks to the door, opening it, leaving Debra's office. She closes the door behind her, smirking.
"She fell for it." She laughs silently. Shapeshifting into her regular human form. A blonde woman, slim body, she puts on her cowboy style witch hat on. "I can't believe she fell for it."
The lady picks up her phone and calls Michele. Meanwhile with Michele, Michele and Joey walk up to Joey's house. The duo quickly speed walking up to the front door, holding hands. Joey grabs his house keys, quickly unlocking the front door. Michele and Joey started kissing as they entered through the door. Joey closes the door behind them. He breaks the kiss, saliva falls from their mouth as Joey pins Michele on the wall. They both breathe heavily, their faces turn red from blushing. Michele bites her lip seductively.
"You couldn't wait for your reward, hm?~" Michele said, creasing Joey's tie with her fingers.
"Got a bit freakishly frisky when I saw you walking in the station~" Joey said, chuckling. Michele chuckles seductively. She pulls his tie, pulling him closer to her height.
"You are obsessed with me. I love it!~ I need you in me, Joey.~"
Joey smirks.
"You don't have to tell me twice.~"
Michele chuckles, getting closer to Joey's face, kissing him. Her phone rings. The couple stops as their eyes widened, frightened by the noise.
"Oh shit. Who's that?!" Michele said, nervously scurrying her purse trying to grab her phone. Joey quickly grabs his flashlight, turns it on, shining inside her purse. Michele finds her phone, she looks at the screen seeing who's calling.
"Oh!" Michele said, sighing in relief. "It's Michelle in Henderson."
"Romera? She's helping you with your plans?"
"Not really, she's an on and off member of my mafia. She does it just to hide the fact that she's with me as my consigliere."
"Oh shit."
"Mh– but please don't stop, keep on going while I take this call~"
Joey smirks and picks up Michele by her legs, carrying her upstairs to his bedroom. Michele answers her phone.
"Romera!"
"Lusty! She fell for it." Michelle said.
"No fucking way? Debra really fell for it?" Michele said, Joey gently lays her on his bed. He licks Michele's neck. She lets out a silent moan.
"Girl… she was so upset. She looked like she was going to cry at first."
Michele laughs. "Holy shit!"
"You want to know what's even funnier? She still believes that the Henderson Police have evidence that you and Carolyn committed the massacre."
"She still believes that?" Michele asks. Joey perks his head up.
"No way, she still believes that there is more evidence that I got rid of?" Joey said.
"You think the Henderson police found more evidence but couldn't even find one body and the body they found was from a cold case in the 1980s"
"My work really pays off." Joey chuckles. Michele and Romera laugh.
"Now that she knows that Carolyn is dead. She won't be able to call for her when we take over Nevada." Michelle said.
"Good. Debra is really weak in fighting so this is going to be an easy win for us." Michele said, chuckling evilly. Debra peaks out of her office door, listening to Romera's conversation. She slowly closes the door without making any sudden noise.
"Wait, so… Carolyn isn't dead or is she dead, It's just that Michelle planned the message with Lusty Michele?" Debra said, thinking for a moment, pacing back and forth.
"This is confusing…" Debra continued. "But of course, if Carolyn dies. She gets revived instantly. But I think since the fight that happened at the strip last year. That probably took a longer time to revive her in the hospital."
She thinks for another minute. Her eyes widened. "Oh no! I got tricked! Carolyn did tell me about Michelle's tricky antics!"
"Well.." Debra grabs her sweater from the coat rack. "I'm going to find out for myself."
She opens the door, walking out of her office. She walks past Michelle.
"Hey Romera." Debra said, smiling as she walked past Michelle.
"I got to go to Lusty. I'll call you back later."
"Okay"
Michelle hangs up the phone. She shapeshifts into Debra's assistant again. She follows her down to the elevator.
"Mayor March?"
Debra turns around, looking at the assistant. "Hm? Is there something wrong?"
"Oh no. Just checking on you!" The assistant said, "Are you heading out to lunch?"
"Uh… Yeah– Yeah, I am! By myself, alone. You know." Debra chuckles.
"Oh, okay. Is it because Carolyn is dead, and you want to take a break and grieve?"
"I just need some fresh air, that's all."
The elevator door opens up. Debra steps inside the elevator.
"I won't be out for long!" She said, smiling. The elevator door closes. The assistant shapeshifts back to her normal form. Michelle walks back to Debra's office, walking towards the window. She watches Debra walking out of City Hall. Debra looks around the area as she walks to her car. She gets in her car and drives off the parking lot and out to the Water Street District. Michelle walks away from the window and sits in Debra's chair.
"One day, Henderson will be mine." Michelle said, putting her feet up on the desk, laughing.
