Chapter Five
Beauregard was now kneeling in front of Eli, under the weight of the demon's hand. Eli smirked, looking into the janitor's baby blue eyes.
'Just one....and they will feel how serious I am.....' Eli's thoughts swam, watching Beau struggling to get away from him.
Beau looked beside him, his mop bucket with bleach and water were beside him. He then kept his eyes locked with the demon, while he reached over, and dipped his furry hand into the dirty water...
"GET AWAY FROM ME!!" Beau yelled, flinging the bleachy water into Eli's face. Eli stumbled backwards, his hands went to his face, the water was burning him, stinging horribly in his eyes. Beau went running into the kitchen. He looked around for a second, and he saw Chef's knife on the table, it was very heavy to him.
"This will stop him, I think..." He hefted the heavy knife in his hands, waiting for Eli to enter the kitchen.
---------
"OW!!! That freaking HURTS!!!" He was rubbing at his eyes, the bleach stinging him as if it were holy water. He glared down at the bucket, and kicked it over, the water spilling out into the living room. He licked his lips, growling, looking at the swinging door to the kitchen.
'I'll kill him....I will kill him.....' He thought, as he swung the door open, and glared at Beau, his entire eyes reddened now, his fangs fully bared, his claws ready to shred whatever came in his way.
"Be ready to meet your maker, Mr. Regard!!" He leapt over the small island in that cramped kitchen, and landed on the large muppet, crouched on his chest. Beau gripped the knife tightly. He was breathing heavily now, his suspenders halfway off of him now. He was terrifed.
Eli smiled, breathing into Beau's face, he could smell his fear now. He raised one hand behind him, ready to claw into him, then....
"Augh...." Eli felt the cold steel in his chest, sliding deeper in. Black blood seeping, his eyes went blank for a moment, and fell forward onto the janitor.
Beau crawled out from underneath the demon, black blood on his shirt, and on his hands. He grabbed his hat, and looked back at him. Eli was on his side, grasping the knife in his chest.
"Oh...oh....oh no...." He stammered leaving the kitchen, leaving the demon inside. He went and sat on the sofa, staring at his hands. He couldn't believe he had just killed someone.
------------
The house was eerily silent, except for the two old hecklers sitting on the swing outside.
Even Statlder and Waldorf could feel something was wrong inside of that house. They walked slowly into the house, and looked at Beau for a moment.
"You okay?" Waldorf asked, quite nicely which was unlike him.
"Maybe he had some of that chef's cooking, Waldorf!" Statlder laughed softly, then quieted down, seeing that Beauregard didn't say a word to them.
The two decided to just sit in their armchairs, and wait for the rest of them.
The front door opened, Kermit and the rest walking inside. Everything seemed normal to him, except he smelled bleach everywhere.
"Beauregard?" He asked, looking at him. Beau still sat staring at his hands for a moment.
Scooter came inside last, and went over to Beau, noticeing the blood on him.
"Hey, what happened in here, Beau?" He looked at Beau's face, wondering what was going on through his mind. He looked scared to death, Scooter had thought.
"S-Someone...in the house....he was trying to hurt me...and..."
Gonzo walked farther, into the kitchen, something was smelling some out of place to him.
"GUYS! Get in here!!!!" Gonzo yelled, now kneeling in front of Eli.
Everyone came running quickly, Sadie saw it was, and she sighed heavily, kneeling beside Gonzo.
"You...you are a horrible man, Eli."
Eli coughed deeply, looking up at Sadie. "So....you know what I am, Sadie dear....it is in my nature..." He coughed again, black blood coming forth in a small trickle from his mouth.
Sadie stood up, and glared down at him. "I hope you join your sister soon, you horrendous demon." She kicked him in his nether regions and walked out of the kitchen, glaring at the wall for a moment.
Then she walked over to Beau and sat down on the couch beside him. "Did he hurt you Beau?"
"He tried too...but I saw a knife and I....I stabbed him..." He lowered his head, looking at the floor. He pulled an old rag from his back pocket and started trying to rub the blackness from his hands.
Sadie watched him for a moment. She sighed, wishing Eli would just go ahead and die, so they wouldn't have to worry about him anymore. She heard some commotion in the kitchen, some yelling and shouting.
Then, Kermit's voice rang out above everyone else's. "LET GO OF HIM!!"
