Mother and Daughter Effort: Afterwards

As Sara descended downstairs to fetch the cleaning supplies, Lucy looked at Mike's headless body. It lay there, naked and limp. The pressurized hose of blood had subsided into a weak trickle as Mike's heart ceased beating. She knelt besides it and pulled it onto her lap. Lucy touched the exposed neck flesh, wondering at its wetness. The body was still warm to the touch, its pale white skin still soft and pliant. The girl closed her eyes and placed her lips on the trachea, her tongue pushing down into his throat, tasting the familiar metallic iron taste of blood. Her left hand wandered down Mike's chest, feeling every crease and wet bloodstain as she went further down, until her fingers felt Mike's penis.

Lucy opened her eyes and looked down as she fondled his limp cock. She felt a brief pang of sadness. Mike was a nice kid, he had always treated her with respect and kindness, and now he was gone forever. The girl looked across the room at his head. She rolled his corpse off her lap and crawled across the floor to the head, which she picked up. Only a few minutes ago, this was still attached to a body, still thinking and feeling, blood and oxygen still coursing through its circulatory system. Now, it was an empty meat shell, no thoughts or emotions churning in its brain. "I guess this is what the elder ones mean by sacrifice", Lucy said, tears welling in her eyes. The initial euphoria and excitement had worne off, and now she was left with a faint feeling of regret.

Sara came clomping up the stairs and opened Lucy's door only to find her daughter kissing Mike on the lips, tears running down her cheeks. "Whats the matter honey?" she said, concerned. "N-nothing, mom", Lucy said, feeling embarassed as she quickly placed the head on the floor and stood up. "Lets clean this mess up, mom".


The pair quickly got to carving the body up, slicing through joints to dismember the arms and legs from the torso, rolling each limb up in multiple garbage bags, wrapping up the headless, limbless torso in the shag carpet, then multiple buckets of warm soapy water to scrub the bloodstains away. After three hours of effort, the room looked spotless. Mother and daughter carried the remains down to the van Sara had bought specially for today. She opened the back up, threw the body parts in, and slammed the door shut. She had even mapped out a decently hidden away disposal site.
Sara frowned as she thought back on the day's events. It would be a real pain in the ass having to do all this work for more than a handful. She shook her head.
No, the cult leaders had selected other mothers and daughters. They weren't in this alone, that was a fact. Sara smiled to herself and nodded, faith restored. Yes, it was all according to plan. The elder ones would be happy tonight.
