"Do you think I'm afraid?" Sparkle sneered, "I was playing with snakes before you were even born."
"Sparkle, then hurry up and take it away!" Lynn shrieked hysterically, her voice breaking.
Looking down at her, Sparkle smirked, "Why should I take it away?"
"Aren't you not afraid?"
"I'm not afraid, but why should I take it away?"
"Just think of it as helping me!"
Sparkle chuckled lightly, "Why should I help you?"
Watching the little snake circle around and crawl back up to her chest, edging slowly toward her face, Lynn was about to break down, her voice now clearly tinged with sobs: "Sister, help me, I'm begging you."
"I wouldn't dare call you my sister, otherwise next time it wouldn't be just a fiancé and a company at stake, but my life."
"Sister, I didn't mean to betray you, I was forced. Aaron assaulted me; he threatened me with a video, saying that if I didn't stay with him, he'd tell you that I seduced him, and he'd expose me to the media."
