13 The Thing That Would Be King

CHAPTER THIRTEEN THE THING THAT WOULD BE KING Everybody will have everything they want!" the Frandidate exclaimed, waving its fist in the air. "I will put an end to all of those people that don't believe as you do," it snarled.

From inside the skin, Franny was trying her best to break free, but the skin was constricting around her. "It must be the python DNA," she whispered in a strangled gasp.

The Frandidate's eyes became even more intense. "King of the World!" it said. "Make me King of the World and all your dreams will come true!" Franny could still barely see out one of the Frandidate's eyes. The Support Meter indicated that the people watching at home believed the Frandidate. They were going to vote for this horrible creation. They were going to make it King of the World. Franny was still connected to the Frandidate's mind, and she could even see the plan it was already beginning to form. It never wanted that tingly feeling to stop. It would say anything for it. It would do anything to stay in control.

The Frandidate could destroy the world.

Franny felt herself beginning to faint. She was getting dizzy and it was hard to breathe. She knew that she wasn't just wearing the Frandidate anymore; she had been swallowed by it. It was almost like she had been eaten.
