Mistaken

Akane was nuts, I'm not joking, she's basically trying to kill me and I have no idea what I even did. "I don't know what you're talking about, you're mistaken," I said calmly, not really caring the blade near my neck.

"I did see you though! I remember!" she said, "Think, you know!"

She held the saw closer and I closed my eyes. "If you're just going to kill me, do it."

"I want answers first, tell the truth."

I looked at Oogie's dice and looked at the snake-eyes and I started to zone out.

He cackled. "Well, you are more than welcome to stay here," he said in a malevolent tone, "... Do you like to gamble?"

"Yes... why does this matter?" I replied.

"Good," he replied, walking off.

I stood there staring at him oddly, but then moved around after the trio and Oogie left. The question was: why did he ask me that and say I could stay?

I heard some more dice roll and another couple of red dice landed close to my feet. I blinked and pick them up. 'Snake eyes...'

"Sorry about that, the dice must've gotten off the table."

I looked over into the darkness and saw a figure with a table. I walked over and set both the die down. "Nothing to worry about," I replied walking away.

"Wanna play?"

"No thanks, I don't really feel like it."

"Come on..." she beckoned, "You aren't scared, are you?"

I turned around and looked at her. "I just don't feel like it. Maybe another time."

"Just one game?"

"Hey! HEY! Jack frost!" Akane snapped.

I looked up away from the dice and looked at her in the eyes. "What?" I asked.

"Do you remember or not?" she asked, holding the blade closer

"Does it matter?"

Please continue?
