While Dan continues to sizzle away in the oven, surprisingly seeming not to die but suffering under the pain of being cooked alive, Kat pretends to call his phone. “Hey, brother dear,” the evil girl says into her phone, “I am just calling to see where you are. Dinner is almost ready… oh… okay… no, don’t bother, I’ll let mom and dad know… okay… yeah, see ya,” she then pretends to hang up the “call”, then heads to her mother.
Janet, the mother, is just getting ready for the dinner in the master bedroom, when Kat walks in, “there you are, mom,” the girl says, “I just called Dan, he is at his girlfriend’s house and plans to stay there for the rest of summers break. So, he’ll be back in a few weeks.”
Janet turns to face Kat, rasing an eyebrow, “but it’s your birthday,” she says, “he should be here.”
“Mom,” Kat says, “I don’t mind him not being here. I actually prefer it that way, he is so annoying and having a few weeks of peace and quiet, really is the best birthday gift he can give me.”
Janet narrows her eyes and looks closely at her daughter, but then lets out a sigh, “okay, fine,” she says, “if you are okay with it. But he could at least have let me and your dad know… oh, well… I guess he is in that age,” the woman shakes her head.
Kat chuckles, “hey, we all have been in that age,” she says.
“So true,” Janet replies, they then hear the oven giving off a series of “ping” sounds, signaling that the food is done, “sounds like the dinner is ready, why don’t you get everything set and me and your dad will be down in a second.”
“Sure mom,” Kat says and hurries down into the kitchen to get the “Turkey” out of the oven, grinning to herself, ‘hehe… looks like she doesn’t suspect a thing! AWESOME!’
Kat turns off the oven, grabs a pair of oven gloves and opens the oven door, her mouth watering over the delicious smell. The girl opens a mental link to her “Turkey brother”, ‘how are you doing, little Turkey,’ she asks, ‘having fun yet? I know I am!’
‘Ka-Kat… y-you bitch,’ Dan says in his mind, ‘wh-why are you so cr-cruel? Wh-what have I done to deserve this hell?’
‘Oh… nothing really, you are just a pain in the ass,’ the girl says, placing the try on the counter, ‘I never wanted a brother, ever since you were born I hated you and wanted you gone! You stole mom away from me! I WAS her baby, NOT you!’
‘So, just be-because of THAT, you are doing this,’ Dan asks dumbfounded, ‘you know, you won’t get away with this!’
‘Oh? And why do you assume that,’ Kat asks.
‘Because mom will figure out that something is wrong if I never show up again,’ Dan says.
Kat cackles mentally, ‘hehehe… I don’t think so,’ she says, ‘I told her that you are at your girlfriend’s house, and that you’ll stay with her until the end of summer break, enough time for me to think of a way to cover up what I did. Maybe just wipe their memories of you, maybe creating a copy, who not only acts like you but who’ll also obey me and do anything I ask… I’ll figure something out!’
Dan is at a loss for words, ‘so… after eating me… will I… die,’ he finally asks.
‘No, hehe… after eating you, I will extract you soul from the leftovers and store you in a glass jar, until I figure out what fun I will do with you next. You will forever be my little toy, and I’ll make sure to play with you as much as I can!’
‘But… but mom… and other people with ma-magic abilities, w-won’t they sense m-my soul,’ Dan asks.
Kat meanwhile has finished setting the table, she carries the “Turkey” over and sets it in the center of the table, ‘hehe… no, no one will be able to sense your helpless soul,’ she says, ‘I’ll just put a small spell on your soul which will hide your energy. Hehe… no hope for you, my little delicious TURKEY!’
With that, Kat cuts the link to her brother and calls for her parents, soon all three of them are sitting at the table, “man, this smells amazing,” Mike, the father says, “well done, Kat!”
“Yes,” Janet says, “it smells and looks really good. I can’t wait to taste it!”
Kat smirks inwardly, opening the link to her brother, just to hear him scream and yell in pain, trying hard to get his mother’s attention but Kat knows he’ll never get through to her. “Yeah, I can’t wait either,” the evil witch says, “I hope I got it right, this is my first time trying something this advanced. Anyway… please, tuck in and I hope you’ll enjoy the meal!”
