The Black Phone (Finney blake)

Part 9

The black phone once again started to ring.
Finn and Violet stumbled over there still tear in their eyes.

"What" Finn quietly asked.
"Hey Finn, what's happening?" A voice asked.
"Robin" Violet asked knowing she knew that voice.

"Hey, don't cry." Robin told the two.
"We're not" Finney said as the two wiped they eyes.

"Yes you are, I can see you"
"You can?" Violet asked
"I'm with you, I've been with you this whole time." Said Robin

"You have" Finney asked.
"A man never leaves his friends behind, my dad didn't leave his buddies behind when he went to Nam, that's why he didn't come home." Robin told the two.

"And I'm not coming home, either" that sentence broke Violet knowing that her brother, her best friend was never coming home.

"We'll be together again soon" Violet told her brother hopelessly.
"Fuck that , you ain't gonna go like I did" Robin said encouragingly.

"We've tried everything, nothings worked" Finn said.
"Yet"
"Robin"
"Do you remember what I told you?"
"That I needed to see Texas chain saw massacre?" Asked Finn.
"Or Mr Johnson was the worst math teacher in the world?" Asked Violet.

Robin chuckled at the comment his sister made. "That someday your going to have to stand up for yourself, someday is that day guys"

"I'm not a fighter like you robin" said finn
"You couldn't even take him" Violet told Robin.

"You've always been a fighter Finn, you were always afraid to throw a punch, but you always knew how to take one and got back up every time."

"And you Violet you throw the best punches and know every person's week spot"

"We're not strong enough" Finn said doubtfully.
"You're getting out of here if you can't do it for you, do it for me" said Robin

"What does it matter"
"Because I don't want to die for nothing"
"I at least want to  have died for a friend, for family." Violet started to feel encouraged by Robins words.

"And because I can't kill that hijo de puta, you two have to do that for me"

"How" Violet asked.
"Your gonna use a weapon"
"What weapon?"
"The one in your hand"
"The phone?"
"Fill the receiver with dirt, pack it in tight, give it some heft"
"And Violet use one of the shards of glass form the soda bottles"

Violet walked to the corner of the room and picked up one of the shards of broken glass bottle.

"Then what" she asked her brother.
"You practice, over and over" Robin said.

"You raise the phone, take a fast step back. Step forward step back swing"
"Try it" Robin told them.
"Now?" Finn asked not thinking he could do it.
"You raise the glass, take a fast step back. Step forward step back and swing."
"Again, you raise the phone. Take a fast step back. Step forward. Step back and swing"

Violet and Finney did it over and over again until they  started to get the hang of it and getting the confidence to believe in their self.

"You two got it"
"Will we still be able to talk with you?" Asked Finney
"This was the last call, is all you two from here on out" said Robin.

"We miss you Robin" Finney sadly said.
"Then get out for me, use what we gave you" Robin replied.
"We will"
"Bye Finn" Robin told him.
"Bye Robin" he said sadly as he handed to the phone to Violet.

"I can't believe your really gone" Violet said trying not to cry.
"I'll always be with you sis" he said softly.
"Love you Robin" she said about to break
"Love you too" she said as the phone hung up.

"For Robin" Violet softly spoke to Finney.
"For Robin" he said back to her.
