Echos of Madness
"Mommy, it's for you!"
She hated it before she even had a chance to glance her daughter's way. Rebecca knew what her mind would do to the painting...
Warp it.
Distort it.
It would, a sick mind, make an innocent into a demon.
"Honey...?"
"Yes?"
"Go get DADDY."
"...Okay."
The girl scurried upstairs, retrieving a box of bottles and lids marked "BIG DADDY LONGLEGS". On her way downstairs, she scooped up a bottle of water and a pillow for when Mommy went to bed.
The demon spider whispered to her Mother,
"Pull the trigger."
Rebecca never stood a chance.

I really enjoyed this. You've packed so much into so few, very dark words.
