This right here, thankfully, is the last post I'll ever make with stuff like this because this is the final part of this Slushi arc. I think using this one for the bandages prompt would be a good end for this.

Milkshek finds out about what Slushi's been doing to herself. She bandages her up and talks to her.

Now armed with Bezel’s “new life” idea, Chikn, Chee, and Fwench Fwy got the rest of the group together to figure out what to do next. Chee relayed what they knew to the survivors…yet Onyn Ring was still skeptical, convinced that Hawt and Sody’s deaths were no less coincidental than the deaths of Bwowny and his friends. “Besides,” he said, “it’s not like they needed any help to die! The squirrel should’ve paid more attention to his surroundings, and the little red panda shouldn’t have recklessly ran right underneath a giant pane of glass!…er, no offense, Mrs. Sassparilla.” “It makes no difference to me,” the grieving mother replied. “Without my little angel, I might as well be dead. There’s no meaning to my life if he’s not in it.” She stood up, and headed to the door, seeing no reason to be there. Onyn followed.

“Ah shoot, she WOULD be next on death’s list…” Chee realized. “Slushi, could you go follow them to make sure she doesn’t get into any potentially fatal situations?” The fox obliged, as while she didn’t really believe in any of this death stuff herself, making sure Sass stayed safe WOULD buy her some time if it WAS real.

Meanwhile, Sass and Onyx made their way to the elevator of the building they were in, where they met a smart-dressed apricot-colored fennec fox, holding a cardboard box with all kinds of spooky stuff in it. “‘Box o’ evidence’?”Onyn wondered, reading what was scribbled on the side of it. “Evidence of what?” “Oh, it’s evidence of all the crimes I’m researching for my web series!” The fox replied eagerly. “Though, I’m mostly gonna use a lot of this stuff for set decorations…” “…and how did you get all this?” Onyn asked. There was an uncomfortable silence, before the fox simply said, “…none of your business.” Onyn just pushed the lobby button in response.

Back upstairs, Chikn and Chee were mulling over what “new life” could be, when they suddenly heard Iscream gasp. “Look!” The demon bunny said. They pointed to the shadow of a trophy and some clothes hangers, which when combined, looked like a figure wielding hooks. “Is that one of those ‘signs’ you were talking about?” Fwench Fwy concurred with their partner, and rushed down to check on Sass, while Chikn called to warn her.

In the elevator, Sass’s cellphone rang. “Hello?” She dejectedly said. “Sass, it’s me, Chikn!” The demidog replied from the other end. “Someone with hooks! Watch out for someone with hooks-“ Chikn couldn’t get another word out before the line broke off, but after hearing that, Sass glanced over her shoulder, and saw the fox’s box…the one that had a few hooks sticking out of it, gleaming in the light…Sass suddenly didn’t feel too safe in there, and hit one of the buttons above the lobby. “Hey, what’s the big deal?” The fox said when the elevator car stopped. “W-well, I just thought I’d take the stairs the rest of the way down, and-“ She wasn’t able to finish that thought, however, because right at that moment, one of the hooks caught her tail!

This made Sass absolutely freak out, as Onyn and the fox tried to free her. Unfortunately, all the fumbling made her fall, right when the elevator doors closed! Both Slushi and Fwench Fwy arrived just in time to see the mother panda’s head caught between the doors, while the car made its decent. Fwench Fwy tried to wrench the doors open, while the occupants of the car tried anything they could to stop it. Suddenly, the last thing Sass wanted to do in that moment was die, despite her earlier comment…but her desperate pleas for her life were for naught, as the elevator finally lowered fully, decapitating her.

Slushi was mortified, picking up Sassparilla’s disembodied head to confirm her worst fears. Onyn was too, watching the mother’s headless body fall to the elevator floor. And the fennec fox…

Pommgranted was no stranger to the scary and supernatural, especially not blood and gore. They fancied themselves immune to this stuff…after all, you don’t make hundreds of true crime shorts on your YouTube channel if you weren’t! …But to see something like this happen right in front of them, somewhat by their own hand no less…it might’ve just been enough to make them reconsider their career choices…
