CHAPTER 12

MY HEAD JERKED UP. BOTH MAISON AND I stared at the door, frozen. Had TheVampireDragon555 found us?

“Please, open up!” called a weak, cracking voice. “Please!”

Maison and I looked at each other in disbelief. I picked up the diamond sword. Grabbing her stone sword, Maison inched closer to the door, her weapon poised in case she needed it. The person was still pounding at the door. Hesitantly, Maison pressed the button for the door to open, and there stood Destiny.

“You!” Maison said, eyes flashing.

“Please, I want to help you,” Destiny said. Her voice still croaked a little, like a zombie’s hiss was trying to take over her normal voice.

“Likely story,” Maison said, and began to close the door.

“Wait!” Destiny put her hand in the doorway to stop it. “Give me a chance. I can explain everything.”

Destiny looked at me as if I would defend her from Maison. But I wasn’t buying it, either. I thought Destiny had a lot of nerve showing up here after everything.

“You’re the one who helped TheVampireDragon555 break into the Overworld!” I said.

She put her head down. “Yes,” she said softly. “I did. But I didn’t know that it would go this far.”

“How far did you expect it to go?” Maison demanded. “I saw the nasty things you wrote about me online. All the threats. Saying you were going to come and get me? You can’t just show up and play innocent!”

Destiny bit at the edges of her fingers. No, actually, she was biting the nails on them, as if they were some kind of food. Did zombies from Maison’s world eat their own fingers? There were blotches of black on her nails, which must have been some other weird thing that happened to zombies from Maison’s world.

“I’m sorry,” Destiny said. “If you can just let me in …”

“Why?” Maison said. “So you can bite us and turn us into zombies?”

The room was so tense you could have cut the air with a knife. That’s when Ossie, who Dad always said was an excellent judge of character, strolled over to Destiny and began to rub against her legs, purring. I couldn’t believe it. Maison couldn’t believe it, either.

“Ossie, no!” I said, wanting the silly cat to back away. I’d already lost my world and my dad; I didn’t need Destiny hurting my cat, too. I winced when Destiny reached down, but all she did was pick Ossie up and cradle her, rubbing the cat under the chin so that she purred extra, extra hard.

“I want to help you turn the villagers back and stop TheVampireDragon555,” Destiny said. “He’s not the only one who can order the zombies around. I was the one who ordered them off you so you could escape from the village.”
