A Crooked Anon-a-miss
A Talk With The Monster Inside Of Duke
Previous ChapterNext ChapterIn the morning, Duke got up and headed off to CHS, he let Sunset sleep in. His face said nothing but anger, rage, madness, everything bad. It was the horrible truth, the Crooked Man was coming back but this time, Duke was alive. He didn't say a word when he passed D, Sissi, or Fluffy, which was surprisingly nice to see them again. He was breathing with anger and he couldn't even stand when he saw the building of CHS.
"You...You....You little morons!" Duke said to himself, he was basically listening to the Crooked Man now! "Hurt someone that didn't do anything is being a crowed!"
Yes, it is. Isn't it? Duke nodded when his evil side spoke, Let's make them pay like the weaklings they are! Duke laughed and headed towards the building.
"Duke?" He turned around to see....Huh? Who was this? A girl with light pink hair? "Are you taking care of Sunset?"
"Who are you?" Duke asked, crossing his arms, not liking this girl.
"I'm Fluttershy....Sunset's friend."
No she's not! She made Sunset cry! The person your looking after! The Cooked Man had a point, but Duke had to listen to Fluttershy before he acted. Come on Duke! Kill her!
No. Duke told his evil side, instead he looked at Fluttershy and sighed, "Yes I am. The girl you made cry. Why would you care for her when you said that she's Anon-a-miss?! She told me everything!"
"I don't think she's Anon-a-miss anymore..." Duke couldn't even hear the last part since she was talking to quiet! "I believe her now." Okay, he heard that part.
"Really!? You believe her now?! After everything you said!?" Duke shouted, not caring if her friends were coming, well running, up to her. "You think she's not anymore!?"
"Leave her alone!" A girl with pink hair said, "You leave her alone you big meanie!"
"Really now? Me? A meanie?" Duke asked, his monster coming out in his voice, scaring the mane 5, "What about you five? What you said to Sunset made her think she crooked! And you call me a meanie?"
The five gulped and backed up but Duke went towards them, his neck starting to move a little. His eyes becoming dark and red, blood beginning to appear out of nowhere...The Crooked Man was finally coming out.
"Hang on there partner! No need to go monster form on us!" Apple Jack pleaded, but Duke just laughed, then he stopped and calmed down.
"You have no idea what you made her think! She claims she crooked! Like I was! I wouldn't be surprised if she tries to kill herself!" Duke told them, remembering when he tried to kill himself. "Everything she does is what I did!"
You stop my fun!? I was so close to coming out! I would've taught a lesson! The Crooked wined.
Yeah! That's why I did so! I don't wanna go to prison! Duke fought back at his evil side, he heard it groan, Oh shut up!
"What do you mean by 'Everything you did?' "Rainbow asked, tilting her head to the side.
"I tried to kill myself, went insane, had thoughts of killing." Duke explained, "I went after so many! David, D, Fluffy, and Sissi."
The girls were quiet, was Sunset really like this? They hadn't seen her for weeks! And yet, here Duke was talking to them about her! The CMC came by and Duke ran in front of them.
"I also need to talk with you three." Duke said, staring them in the eye. "Right NOW!"
"Okay?" Sweetie Belle said, feeling unsure about this.
"You three make it seem so funny, but you...Oh you did so much damage to her." Duke's eyes began to darken, "You made her feel like NOTHING! I hope you all die in a painful death!"
Duke had left and had everyone that heard thinking, but mostly the mane five and CMC were thinking a lot now, but how could they just listen to him? He was wrong! They were right! Weren't they?
"You think he's right?" Sweetie Belle asked her friends, Apple Bloom didn't answer and Scootaloo just shook her head, "I can't believe he said those things."
"What if he's right though?" Scootaloo asked, "I mean the way he sounded, it made it seem like Sunset's deeply hurt."
"Ah don't know who to believe." Apple Bloom said.
How could I be so lost
"I think I made a mistake."
In a place I know so well?
"I'm always a crooked girl."
How could I be so broken
"Duke's wrong."
In a family so together
"He was always wrong about me."
How could I be so lonely
"I was the broken one,"
Surrounded by so many
"The crooked one."
How could I be so unhappy,
"No one needs me."
Surrounded by so much beauty
"I don't wanna be here anymore."
How could I be me
"I could never be trusted."
When even I remain a mystery?
Sunset looked at herself in the mirror, she had read the latter that Duke wrote for David. Maybe Duke was thinking about leaving his life behind and ending it, maybe he was trying to get rid of everything around him. Something was hiding from her and now she found it.
"He's wrong." Sunset told herself, "I'm the crooked one here, not him."
