Athena pulled Karyn out the door. In their rush, Athena's shirt got caught in the open drawer on the cabinet by the door.
The cabinet rattled, and some bottles of makeup clattered on the floor.
Susan McMillan straightened all of a sudden, the tight bodysuit creaking audibly as it moved over her body.
Shit Athena said, scrambling to free herself. She pulled, where she should be moving closer to the cabinet.
"Athena!?" Karyn kept moving forward and had Athena not let go of her arm as soon as the goth girl felt her shirt caught, Karyn would've pulled her forward with enough force for one or the other to have fallen on the floor.
"Karyn dear?" Susan moaned, turning. "I thought you said you friend's name is Kath." She said in a singsong voice. "I think... the lovely teacher on the phone told me to watch out for someone named Atheeena."
Just as Athena finally managed to get her shirt out of the drawer, she saw Karyn's face going slack.
"Karyn?" Athena said, slowly realizing what was happening.
"Karyn, darling. You cannot disobey me. The spiral is in your head. My suit is so hypnotic. Now, restrain Athena."
"Yes... mom."
