"Kill you? Why? I thought you said you were our angel sides." Deanna was getting more confused by the moment. Evelyn didn't seem to be getting it either. The doubles on the other hand, polite as they could be just smiled. It was sort of creepy. There were no emotions in them besides them being 'content' and wanting to be helpful.
"First, you must understand," Deanna Three spoke ,"We only came into being because of a curse. You angered someone, we don't know who. We do know the specifics of the curse as we are born with all knowledge of it. I would ask that you don't ask how to activate the curse. It's a horrifying thing as you have noticed and the less people who know of it the better. I don't mean to make it sound like you will curse everyone you meet but... you guys aren't the nicest people."
"Look," Evelyn Three had seen our faces at that last sentence ,"There are six doubles made when the curse is activated, and the two of us are the weakest ones. Each of us is made of your emotions, Anger, Happiness, Disgust, Surprise, Sadness, and Fear. We go by numbers in that order due to that being the order the cursed ones usually meet each 'double'. And don't be fooled by the terms. We are all made of your emotions in the most negative way. As Happiness or Threes all we want to do is take care of ourselves, we are selfish. Often threes don't ever show up in their cursed one's life because they don't want to die. It was made our duty to tell you about the curse and if we don't there is a higher chance of you dying. That means we can live on. The two of us only chose to come because the two of you are so emotionally invested in each other. That selfishness that people normally have is invested not only in yourselves but in each other. Not only do I want to take care of myself, but I have a need to take care of Dean."
"And I, Eve," Deanna Three added ,"Happiness is selfish, and I selfishly want you to live," She looked at Evelyn and for once in the conversation had some warmth in her eyes.
