Penny and Aggie/Recap/Missing Person: Cyndi and Charlotte: Difference between revisions

{{work}}

This chapter, the darkest of the comic's run, centers on two mentally disturbed girls facing off in a life-or-death contest of will. In the toolshed Charlotte, removing the tape from Cyndi's mouth but keeping her bound in the wheelchair, says that her having gotten away so far with the assault and kidnapping means that her imminent murder of Cyndi must be God's will. Brandishing a serrated knife, she lists Cyndi's misdeeds, and claims that death is the only thing that can stop her from going on to hurt, even kill, others. Despite her friendship with Duane and literary conversations with him (one of which, her "alibi," she in fact had conducted via IM using Cyndi's phone), Charlotte considers herself already beyond hope and damned for ''her'' transgressions. She hopes, however, that like the biblical Pharaoh and Herod, she can still serve God by sending an even worse person to Hell.
