Jack smiled, and slowly took off her lace choker. Beneath lay stitching. "It's what she did to me after I died, you know. My step-mother separated my head from my body because of superstition. She thought I'd haunt her if I had my head." Jack Tapped her stitches. "The only way to get to the next level is to place me back in that room. My head must be removed, and take what's inside to the clock in the ballroom. Wait till' it strikes 12. Then the rest is in your hands. It is so releasing to know that I can be Lissy again. Thank you Catherine, you shall be the next Jack. Lead the way for others.... Don't let himout." Lissy smiled saddly. "The axe.... the way I got out... it's in the room with mirrors."

"Words that play, an 'ask' that kills. A child's mistake, and one that thrills. What do you hurt when you fall 'face-first'? And what would reaper, steal ye, worst? The bloody red lady, a methodical habit. To lose something 'mental', or something 'essential'? What lies over the heels?" Jack knew that Cat had to get this right. Should she not, within the next night, the prize would be stolen.

Jack looked down to the little hero. "Catherine. .... Cat. I have something that you might want to know. Answer the riddle right, and you might live again. You could try.
'The object you seek lies not neck-to-neck, but sometimes by the heels. What have thine heart fought so hard against? Find me so close, but lose me so easy. An ask be thy killing.'
What do you think it means?" Jack smiled saddly. Maybe this time she would see him. THey could be together again. Her and her Lozen. The man she had met only in death, and wanted to have a life with. THe prise was a wish. Always a wish. A hope for a future. Jack had wanted that with him. KIds, a cute little house with a yard and a graden. SHe wouldn't even have minded if th they ended up as an old couple with a thousand cats. She loved him just that match. ANd she wanted that, as well, for Catherine. "Answer right, with pure heart. And the key to the next game is yours."

DO any of these help??? Anything with pandas would actually make me happy..... ANYTHING. (so long as it's mostly grayed-out)

Jack suddenly felt very old, and placed a hand on Cat's shoulder. "Time passes much quicker for us than others, MIss Catherine. You will find, in time, that the only thing you can do is try to play along." Jack offered a small smile. "You know, there is a way to get back. It's in the rules." She hummed, gently. "If you want to make it out alive, than be the last to die. The only way to take back what was taken, is to become a good Jack." Jack's smile became chesire-like as she suddenly realized something. "That's why Labane is still here, the sick b*stard!! He didn't play by the rules when he was jack!!!" She started to laugh, a smile tear falling from her eyes. That was why he was still hanging around-- why he attacked her every chance her got. He didn't want anyone to win.

Jack needed to know, before anything else, this one important thing.
"Who told you about the mirrored room?"

Tankies :3 As are you.

Jack was bewildered, and hardly noticed as a tears started to pool in her eyes. He had kept his promise. All this time.

Lissy stared down at her hands, knowing there was nothing she could do to change the fact that her dear friend Bishop was now dead. Lozen sat next to her, knowing she was breaking her own heart worrying about things. He knew she couldn't handle things like this. In reality, she was a virgin to things like death. He wondered how she had even died. He imagined it was an accident. But he wanted to know, so he asked her.
"Lissy, how did you die?" She had looked at him with sad eyes, knowing he was the only person who would believe her.
"My father remarried when I turned 9. The women always disliked me, and let me know this every time we were alone. She hated me as I grew older. She hated how charmed everyone seemed to be with me, though I hardly noticed. I only ever wanted to be approved by my father, and she knew that. So she lied to him, about everything I did. Until, finally, he turned his eyes and ears away from me, and listened only to her infectious lying, words. It gave her the chance she always wanted. She poisoned me."
Lozen looked shocked. Why would someone do that?? To someone who was supposed to be their kid? It was disgusting.
"When I realized what happened, I was very angry. I haunted her. But after awhile, I realized that I was just sad-- so I gave up."
Lozen stared into the eyes of the scarred girl. "Listen to me now, Alissa. I will never, and I swear this to you, leave your side. And if I ever do, you can be sure I'll be back before you can even think to say 'Goodbye.'"

OOC: Lol, the last Jack ist stalking you. :] HE SHALT NEVA WIIIIIN XD

BIC:
Jack stared blankly at Catherine. She felt numb, if only for a moment. Lozen had to have left. He just had to. That was the only thing that she had held onto the last few years-- she had been waiting for the time that she too could pass. But being a Jack meant there was no rest. Only a hero could leave, and she felt like the anomaly. She was the one that was different. Lozen had always teased her high threshold for pain, and how she never really cried. He was her only exception. And to hear that he was still here frightened her. She felt so unbelievably dirty. She always felt as if it was her fault. He had saved her, from herself, and from the last Jack-- Labane.
Jack could still remember what Lozen looked like, long hair hair, caramel eyes, and face always marred with a look of deep thought, like he was trying to hide a sore spot.
Jack had fallen head-over-heals for the cheeky b*stard-- slowly, of course. She had always been way too naive to just fall in love with the flick of a wrist. She had died at age 17, after all.
"What are you talking about, Miss Catherine?" Jack asked slowly, collecting her thoughts, and judging the reaction of her face.

First I GOT grounded, then I moved, then i moved again. DX

OOC: I'll allow you to use her character XD It's Lissy, by the way.
BIC:
Jack felt the hairs on the back of her neck stand up on end. Someone was definetly using that room. She dashed quickly towards the room, leaving any notions behind.
SHe had to save her guest.

I'm goooooooooooooood. I totally missed this site :]

As Len ran, she felt something in her heart snap in two. It was entirely too painful to bear, and she didn't know what had caused it. She looked around frantically, tears filling her eyes.
"M-my brother!! H-have you seen him? Has anyone seen my baby brother?!!" She knew inside that no-one would. She knew he was no longer there, but her stubborn nature wouldn't allow her to give up her boy. Hers and no one else's. Len's vision grew blurry, as the pain escalated. "My boy is gone. My brother is gone." She could hear herself mumble over and over again, little the mantra would break the dizzy spell and bring him back. She dark eyes filled with tears, and her right eye seemed to be more painful then the rest of her body. Like it was the entry point of her pain. Somewhere, in the back of her mind, she heard a voice say,

You are the one that holds the key.​

Len couldn't go on. The pain was too much. Though she knew she wasn't crying, she felt a wetness leave her right eye.
Drying her eye, Len was startled to see blood.

Don't be afraid, the voice said, Everything done will bring you one step closer.​

She wanted to scream that what the voice said where lies, and that the loss of her brother was too painful-- too terrible. But couldn't. In her right eye, she saw something strange. Names to faces that passed her by without care. Dates attached. IT was something that immediately disgusted her, but as her vision grew dimmer she could do nothing but fall.

But don't be afraid.
For you are the one who will bring light to the darkness.
You are the one who will lead the way, and pave the path.​
