Chapter 29: Part Two Queen Of Hell


    Key runs down the hall. “No running.” A nurse yells at her.


    “Fuck off!” she yells back. She has to get to Cami Dawn quickly. When she reaches the room,


    Cami is sitting up in the bed.


    “Are you okay?” She asks as she sits down on the side of her hospital bed.


    “I will be perfect as soon as we get the hell out of her.” She says.


    “You know he is nning to take them to Venus,” Key says.


    “I know,” Cami says. “I have no intention of giving them to him or her.” Key sits silently for a moment.


    “Cami, I could try to reach out to Brooke.” She says.


    “We don’t know where she is, Key.  I wouldn’t even know how to look for her.” Cami Dawn says.


    “Unless she is looking for Sunnie.” Cami Dawn sits up in the bed. “Where would Sunnie go?” she


    asks.


    She already knew the answer. Sunnie would go to New Orleans looking for Perdition. Sunnie wanted to


    kill Perdition. It didn’t matter if Perdition walked away or not, Sunnie hated her and wanted her dead.


    Sunnie believed Perdition would help the descendants.


    “Do you think you can leave without causing amotion?” Cami Dawn asks.


    “I can go visit my aunt, but I don’t think he will let me leave while I am caring for you.” Key replies. “Tell


    Daniel you want someone else to care for you and the children.” Cami thinks for a second. Her mind


    is processing every aspect of this.


    “But Key if I tell him I don’t need you, he might decide he doesn’t need you anymore. We can’t risk it.”


    She responds.


    “I know and I will be ready. I will just leave while he is upied with you. If I can get Brooke and get


    back here, then we can burn this bitch to the ground.” Key says with a smile on her face.


    Key had powerful magic inside her. She could slip out with no one ever knowing. She couldn’t


    disguise her, Cami, and two newborns, so that was out of the question. At least not without help. If


    she had Brooke, they could get everyone out.


    “There is a lot of what if’s in this n. I mean what if Brooke isn’t in New Orleans, what if you can’t get


    out, what if he kills you, what if” Cami Dawn stops.


    Two nursese into the room pushing two cribs, “We brought the babies. Daniel said you can have


    ten minutes.” The frumpy red-headed nurse says to her.


    “Thank you.” Cami Dawn says to her. She promptly gets up out of the bed. Key goes to one baby


    and Cami Dawn to the other.


    “We have to get them out of here.” Cami Dawn says as she picks her baby.


    “What did you name them?” Key asks.


    “Daniel has forbidden me from naming them. I will name them when we get them out of here.” She


    says.  “You have to go, Key. I just wish you could take us. I am so scared.” Cami Dawn cries as she


    cradles her infant. “I can’t lose them.”


    Key holds the infant close to her. “We won’t. Everything will be fine, Cami. I promise.” They each rock


    the babies waiting for the nurses toe back.


    After an hour, the nurses finallye back. “Sorry, we got busy. We won’t tell if you don’t” she


    says.


    Cami Dawn and Key nod in agreement. Key ces each infant back in the cribs. “Thanks,” she tells


    the frumpy red-headed nurse. The nurse winks at her and leaves the room.


    “Thank you,” Cami Dawn says.


    “For what?” Key asks. “For being here, I don’t think I would’ve survived without you.” The two


    embrace.


    The door to Cami Dawn’s room swings open. It’s Daniel. “Key, I need to see you. Now!” he demands.


    “Roz will stay with you for now Cami.” He grabs Key by the arm and leads her into the hall.


    “You are going back to thepound. I can’t trust you.” He motions for Trey to take her.


    The towering goon grabs Key by the arm and leads her down the hall. Daniel opens the door to Cami


    Dawn’s room. “Roz will stay with you for now. Don’t give her any trouble.” He says.


    Cami nods. She knows he is going to kill Key. It’s over for her too soon. Cami Dawn settles down


    in her bed, pulls the cover over her head, and pretends to go to sleep.


    In thest six months, Daniel''spound had grown tremendously. They were ready and waiting for


    Daniel to save them. He had them convinced he could save them from the apocalypse. They were after


    all the chosen ones. Most of them worked hard. They barely slept. They served the chosen ones. They


    thought they would be spared by serving Daniel. He was a conman.


    If they only knew his actual ns were to kill them all. They were a sacrifice to him. He wanted his


    mother to rule the topside. A willing sacrifice to bring hellfire to topside is all he needed.  The children


    were her army. Brooke left when she felt there was no one to save her. She had done her part. She


    had tried to save as many as she could. They deceived her.


    Daniel was a master brainwasher. He had done an outstanding job on these people. Most of them were


    lost souls looking for a ce to belong. He knew they would be easy to manipte. The rejects, the


    homeless, he would seek out the tired and outcast.


    Daniel had Key locked in thepound''s basement. He knew she was nning to run. She was too


    uplifting for Cami Dawn. He needs Cami obedient. In the months since Key had been her


    caregiver, Cami Dawn had be upbeat and was almost herself again. He couldn’t have that. He


    needed her to know she had no one but him. He did not need her trying to run away with the babies


    before he could lock them in the garden.


    “Kill her tonight after everyone is asleep. I don’t need her to be a martyr.” He tells Trey. “Burn the body.


    Toss it in theke.”


    Daniel had no intention of keeping Key around. She had already betrayed him once. Why wait around


    for her to betray him again? Her time was up. This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
