“You have got to be joking me!" A brunet snarled at his blond friend, getting bored eyes in return.
“I’m not. I’ve done my research. Bloody Mary was a young woman who lived back when cars first came out. She and her husband got into a nasty car accident. They lived but she was really scarred up and didn’t live past a few years due to her health ending up really bad afterwards,” Naruto said, waving a hand at a pile of papers that sat on his desk. Kiba snorted and took a shot from his beer before putting the bottle onto the table in front of him, eyes watching his friend as the man moved to get a fresh bottle.
“You have got to be kidding me, you idiot,” Sasuke snorted from where he was sitting. Naruto flipped the man over and came back over, dropping the papers into the older male’s lap, making Kiba lean over and read the headline. It looked to be a photo copy of a really, really old newspaper.
“Well, I’ll be damned, it’s true,” Kiba snorted, barking out a laugh as he flopped back and clapped. “You can do research!”
“Don’t make me hurt you,” Naruto snorted, shaking his head. “Anyways, I’ve heard a few of the people say that if you stand in front of a mirror in a dark room and called out Bloody Mary three times in a row, you’ll summon her, and something will happen.”
“Like what?” Sasuke asked, looking up from his reading and raising an eyebrow as Naruto flopped back.
”Depends. You can have your eyes ripped out and end up scarred for life or you can be found dead with claw marks all over the place,” the blond mused, waving his own bottle before smirking. “Or you can just disappear forever. There’s also the possibility of dropping dead or going insane.”
“Sounds so nice,” Kiba snorted, shaking his head as Sasuke shivered lightly as he looked at Naruto, the two silent conversing quickly before the blond smirked and stood up.
“So, how about you do it there, Kiba?” Naruto purred into the brunets ear as he walked past, picking up one of the many candles that he kept around. He had trouble with the electricity in the old building that he called home, so he had candles everywhere, along with lighters. Kiba looked a bit uncomfortable as he eyed the candle and then the bathroom door that was down the hall.
“What would I get if I did this?” he finally asked, eyeing the two who just smirked and looked at each other.
“If you do this, I’ll help you get Hinata out on a date, or Shino, or even both at the same time,” Sasuke returned, eyes glowing brightly as Naruto snickered lightly. Kiba perked up at the offer before smirking in return and nodding at them.
“Sure. Give me the candle,” he said, standing up and holding out his hand. Taking the candle, he went back into the bathroom, closing the door behind him, missing the rather dark looks on Sasuke’s and Naruto’s faces.
Swallowing and lighting the candle, he put it down on the stand, looking into the mirror. Watching the candle dance for a few moments, Kiba took a deep breath and shoved his hair back out of his face, biting his bottom lip.
“Shit, just do it, Kiba. There’s nothing to worry about,” he muttered to himself, standing up straight and staring straight into his own eyes in the mirror. “Bloody Mary,” he started, saying the name slowly. A chill ran up his spine as the mirror darkened around the edges just a bit. “Bloody Mary.” Again, another chill ran up his spine as the mirror darkened completely and the candle flickered harshly. “Bloody Mary.” Swallowing, the male yelped and fell back against the opposite wall as a female appeared in the mirror, disfigured and snarling, long blond hair falling down her back.
Out in the living room, the two ignored the sounds of thudding going on in the bathroom. “Do you think we should check on him now?” Naruto asked after a few moments, the sounds having stopped completely. Sasuke looked up from the articles and tilted his head as he listened for a few seconds.
“No, not yet. They didn’t get all the information right in these papers,” he snorted, slapping them down.
“Yeah, doesn’t even talk about how she was hung or how she cursed her own family,” Naruto snorted, eyes dark with sadness. “How many more are left?” he asked softly, sitting down next to his brother and curling close to the other man. Sasuke picked up a black book and opened it up. Taking a pencil, he wrote down Kiba’s name and the date, looking at the number.
“Only a few more. Then we can have a normal life,” he promised softly.
“Stupid bitch had to be selfish. ‘1000 souls, no more then 100 per generation to make my skin smooth and blemish free. When that happens, will I sleep once more until my name is called again’,” he said, snorting and shaking his head. Getting up, he moved to the bathroom and opened the door, finding Kiba sitting in the corner, eyes staring at the wall in unseeing way. “Come on, Kiba. We’ll get your sister and mother here,” he cooed softly.
Another friend, taken by the bitches curse. When they were free, he was going to seal her ugly ass up forever.
