Chapter 3

In the meantime; Mia, Alex and the others are faced with Miss Vanderpool’s Children. They followed the children as Emily was flying so much and tries to use her air powers to try and stop the soldiers but it was hopeless so she uses a storm of wind to get them away from the city! She somehow got the attention of Mia! He was surprised to see it. “What was that?” Mia asked. “What?” inquired Alex, trying to see but couldn’t. “I thought I saw someone.” Mia said, pointing over. Then, she saw someone flying as Mia called out, “Look!” Just then, Emily appeared before Alex and his friends as she has her arms out. “Who are you?” Alex hollered. Emily called out, “Listen everyone--You’re in terrible danger; these people have done far too much killing to innocent lives. My powers won’t do anything to stop them now!” Perplexed; Mia thinks Emily is leading them into a trap so she and the gang try to attack the flying girl! Just then; Miss Vanderpool’s children steps forward to protect Emily from harm. “What are they?” thought Alex. The children defend Emily as they fight Mia, Alex and their friends. The children were teenagers and kids with special powers. Emily is shown to have the ability to float; however, she has no control of her levitation, as she needs to wear lead shoes and keep a rope around her to make sure she didn't float away. Her levitation has been described as more of being lighter than air rather than being able to actually levitate. Suiting her status as being lighter than air, she has the ability to manipulate air by blowing large and powerful jet streams of wind that is powerful enough to pin a fully grown man against a wall, and fill a whole underwater ship with air. Astor's power is the ability to produce and manipulate fire through her hands. However, she has very little control of her abilities and often accidentally burns her surroundings if she doesn't wear her rubber gloves. Chris is cable of briefly bringing life into all non-living things by implanting a vital organ, usually a heart, from another living being's body. As effective as his peculiarity is, it is sometimes long process to activate, as he needs time to implant the organ. Once his puppet is functioning, it is under Chris's full control and can only do what he tells it to do during the brief time it is alive. He spends a lot of his time stitching parts of toys together to make an odd, disfigured creature, in which he'll bring to 'life' with a heart. He has a vast collection of hearts kept pickled in jars. Speedy Gluttenberg with the ability of being able to control the stinger bugs that live in his stomach. Another boy, name Harold, with the ability of prophetic dreams. Oliver has the ability of invisibility. One of the strange children is an Irish girl, name Dodie, with the ability of growing plants rapidly, and in whatever shape she wants. Another of the strange children is a Welsh girl, Ava, with the ability of super strength and unbreakable skin. Serenity is a little girl with the peculiarity of having a back-mouth. She's rather withdrawn, especially when it comes to eating with other children, because of her back-mouth. And Crayon was gifted with body like rubber, he poses as a contortionist. Mia is shocked by this; she never encountered children quite like all of them with a hint of strangeness! “Whoa…” Mia managed to say. It was then a battle broke out before Mia could stop them until a gust of wind from wings emerged and halted the battle. That’s when Miss Vanderpool, who reveals her wings, calmly spoke up that everyone can hear her, “This has been a big misunderstanding; please we are only trying to help each other!” All at once, they all stopped and managed to come to a consideration and became allied with Evermore! In the meantime; Sylver visits her friends—Corentine ‘Cora’, Betty and Anna-Ray—from her treatment with a traumatic event. It turns out Sylver had to deal with an online predator and thought she found love however she was shocked to eventually learn on how explicit and manipulative he was that Sylver contemplate suicide, she also had a breakdown and was violent however she got medicated for her violent behavior, and she has been doing better. Sylver hopes to stay that way, for now, at least. In the meantime; Katrina is training with Dawson and Roscoe. "Admit it, I am awesome!" She said. Seeing Roscoe having his teeth spit up and a little blood; Dawson speaks up: "Are you crazy to participate in this? People like you will likely get in the way of your reckless bullshit." Roscoe glares at him, "Somebody's gotta stop them. And that person is me." He declared. Dawson gives him a look while saying, "You? Please, you might as well as be useless. How would you know if you would be a liability against the monsters?" Roscoe was annoyed, "Well, after training; most of us aren't inexperienced. I mean, we have new knowledge that surrounds the Fury Family because most of us have been wiped out and here we have people like you, me and the rest. So do me a favor and shut up, because you sound like we're all going to die." He declared. Then, Roscoe paused enough to sneer at Dawson and say: "Maybe it's because you're scared of the Infestations." Dawson got mad, "What was that?" He demanded. He approached Roscoe, who said to him with a dark smirk on his face: "You are nothing to anyone. You wouldn't stand a chance; you'll probably pissed yourself out of fear." Dawson is about to beat him however he stops himself and asked, "You'd ever seen how these monsters reproduce?" Roscoe looked at him, "What?" He asked. "Do they have a female mound or a male shaft? Hmm? No, you don't see it, it's like with a cat, you can't exactly tell if they are either a male or female species. It's left ambiguous, so how is there so many of them? Tell me that." Dawson quipped. "What? You think I'm stupid? I've seen many of them, maybe not in person but I can't tell what kind of gender they are. Besides, someone like you shouldn't talk big for saying shit like this, spoiled brat." Roscoe taunted. Dawson then mocked him saying, "You know what? Same goes for you, I heard that some guy was pretty messed up by how he lost his wife….Your own mother, boy what a momma’s boy." Roscoe got angry, "BASTARD!!!" He exclaimed and the two nearly got into a fight. Katrina try to break them apart however Roscoe, in his anger, didn’t know his own strength for he accidentally put a hand through Katrina’s chest. Hard. Katrina immediately collapsed to the floor, Dawson and Roscoe are shocked by this. However, to their surprise; Katrina rose back like a normal person but noticed their staring. “Why are you guys looking at me like that?” She demanded. “Katrina…Is that you? What happened to you?” Dawson uttered. “Good God, I…I’m sorry, I’m sorry…I didn’t know!” claimed Roscoe. Confused; Katrina rushed to the mirror and saw the cause of the distress. Her lips were burnt to a deep shade of red. Her face was turned into a pure white color, and her hair looked like it was scorched. She slowly put her hands to her shoulders. Katrina looked back at the boys then back at the mirror. “Kat, you don’t look that bad….” Dawson started to say. “What do you mean? I’m beautiful.” Whispered Katrina. The boys were equally surprised. Mesmerized by her reflection, she struggles to get to her feet.  Once up, something strikes inside her as being darkly funny—this caused Dawson and Roscoe to become nervous. What they could see is that Katrina is in all white except her black hair and eyes. Her arms are seeping with fresh blood from the huge wound in the place of her chest is, which has blood running from it. Her new appearance was shining brightly in the light. Something dawn on her as being absolute insanity and Katrina stands in the light, shrieking with laughter. Meanwhile; Chloe took a job with being an assistant for the children. She worked with the children, who love her very much. The kids were Lyka, Amos, Philip, Myrtle, Dryden and Dion. The teachers and teaching assistants adore Chloe too; their names are Mrs. Dorcon, Ms. Lamon, Mrs. Gnathon and Ms. Nape--Even Principal Daphne likes her too! The elementary mornings go like this: There is prayer, the Pledge of Allegiance, sing along, they have to do work, and one of the students have learning therapy. Then they go out for P.E., the children finally come back to go to the bathroom, a little break of snack before going back to class, and have lunch. In the afternoons; the children music, and they go outside to play. The kids in the middle school have a different lesson in class: then they go back to do their work, and finally they have lunch. They have music or some of them are having physical or learning therapy. And lastly they go home. Things got more frightened when a young, eccentric man name Demetri Hale, who is bored of the sentimental normality of his life. When he first met Chloe; Demetri hasn’t fallen for a girl in a while, and he hooked on her. The tingle he gets in his makes him feels alive! He’s feeling awfully amorous. He writes letters to claim his love for her. But Chloe was flattered until she is disturbed to find Demetri has an insatiable interest in Chloe and try to advance her while declaring his love for her. Chloe laughed, however Demetri could not stop flirting and trying to make more intimate moves. Chloe refused him and Demetri became violent, until the teachers and assistants told him to stop pestering her. Demetri was screaming: "WHY DON'T YOU LOVE ME?!" As Lingens and Major calmed him down, Principal Walker apologized for this and promises to make it up to her. Chloe thanked her. Then, something changed her life forever as she got a text on her phone that said, "IF I CAN'T HAVE YOU, NOBODY CAN!!! YOU'RE NOTHING BUT A TEACHER'S PET AND A PRINCIPAL'S LAP DOG!!!! JUST WAIT, I HAVE A SPECIAL SURPRISE FOR YOU!!!!" Entering inside the school; Chloe looked in one of the classrooms to see the children having dinner but it ends up badly as she watched in horror as one of them choked to death as the other kids watch in horror. The nine kids couldn't sleep of what they saw but they finally went to sleep and one of them was found with their throat torn open. The eight couldn't stay in each of the rooms however one of them didn't believe there was something wrong here and decided to sleep but he never came out of his room. Seven waited, while they wait; they cut up some fruits and vegetables. One of them cut his hands by accident and bled to death. Now there were six of them as they were trying to probe a beehive. But one of them got stung by a lot of bees and he drowned into the river for he couldn't swim. Five left as they got lost in the woods but one of them caught by a hermit as he was never seen again. Now, four went by the sea as a whale came and swallowed one of them. Three went to another forest which was forbidden and was mauled by a bear. Two were lost and no place to go, they were dehydrated and try to find water. One of them died from lack of thirst and one was left. But in his devastation; the last threw himself off a cliff, and then there were none. Chloe was so scared, she couldn't believe this was happening. She heard something was coming and she hid in the closet. She had to stay quiet, Chloe didn't want to be found out. That's when the person enters and Chloe couldn't believe who it was: Demetri! He looked around as he saw the massacre. Chloe covered her mouth to keep her from breathing, "He killed them?! Those deadly traps, it was all him!" She thought. Then, she heard a gun go off and something fell. Chloe was too scared but she peeked out from the door and gasped. Demetri laid on the floor, a gun was beside him as he laid there motionless. "He...shot himself?!" thought Chloe. She rushed out, eyes blurred with tears as she couldn't believe this was happening. And she feared guns because of what happened to Demetri. However she stopped by the exit to see someone was sitting at the table motionless and Chloe let out a scream, it was Demetri's mother’s body. She had been killed by her own son! Turning the knob of the door, Chloe rushed out in a variety of emotions: Fear and sadness. In the meantime; Randi had to get into the mall. The mall was huge and big, escalators all around and shops that surround her. Above her was a large skylight, shaped like a hexagon and made the mall inside bright like heaven was shining down, a sign to say it was going to be a good day. As she was walking, she noticed something was up when she passed the entrance and only about more than a few gunmen came in and that's when it all began! A shooting, shots were everywhere. Randi was so scared so she ducked into one of the booths, pretending to be dead so they wouldn't find her. It was oh so quiet that she could hear the cheerful music playing overhead and she passed out in the silence until she felt someone beside him, "Poor sweet girl...." said a man's voice. She looked up, "Help me..." She whimpered. The man was surprised that she was still alive and helped her up. She and other survivors got out of there but she was in tears at what she saw. She heard that there were more people being held hostage. 

In the interim of the present; Liz comes across a male figure in a steel blue armor and helmet, he was startled to this person but looked around of her whereabouts. "Where am I?" He asked. “You were injured but you'll be fine.” The masked armor guy explains. This confuses Liz, “I was?” She asked. “Yes. I need to tell you something…All your life you were to defend humanity against inhumanity but now it’s time for you to see and hear this. Have you noticed the change inside you? How you are not like the others out there? Did you ever realized that?” The guy questioned. Liz and Ragnar were on a small boat where they made a grisly discovery. There were people, all in various states of dismemberment. Most of the people were torn apart; one torso floated without limbs near two collided ships. The women on the other hand, seemed to have died from blunt trauma in the crash. And Liz saw a man beating his wife. He hits her again, harder this time. Her head rocks back; her eyes roll wildly. A wet gagging sound slides out of her leaking red mouth. She spits two molars onto the carpet. "YOU MONSTER!!!!!" He shouted. He is sobbing now, his shoulders heaving raggedly between punches. The living room walls echo the dull meat market sounds of fist against flesh. She looks him dead in the eye and spits out an incisor, another molar, a canine. "Where is he? Where is my son?" This time the blow knocks her sprawling to the floor. She spits out two more incisors and a half-digested index finger. And then this thing that looks like his wife just stares up at him and smiles with a mouthful of impossibly sharp teeth. They found him murdered. Liz let go as she begin to feel increasingly troubled. She managed to calm herself down as she and Ragnar had to dig deeper. Then, Liz had a vision as she learned that they were once human: The three subjects were males, 22, 23, and 29. The subjects also sworn to secrecy. The chemical was successfully administered to all three subjects. Within the first hour, all three of them started screaming in agony. After sedation, each subject had his left arm cut open with a scalpel and his right arm shot by a weapon. When the scalpel penetrated one of the subjects’s skin, it reacted with a dark amorphous solid substance filling the cut almost as fast as the skin was opened up. It sealed so fast that the scalpel was stuck in his arm. The injury caused by the blade was sealed by the dark amorphous blood within three seconds. After 84 hours, all three of the subjects started to act unusual. Instead of using the entertainment around them, they sat in their beds and groaned, as if they were sad or ashamed. After 110 hours, one of the subjects passed out. Blood tests could not be run because the blood was solid and amorphous. The only thing that was determined was the poison in their blood, which was at 5, was far more acidic than usual. The subjects were escorted to the test room. The three subjects looked far different from the beginning. The skin had turned to a shade of grey, and their skin looked noticeably thicker. Their eye colors have changed to pure black, and they were bloodshot. The experiment will continue as planned, but the chemical must be remodeled before repeating the experiment. Before opening fire on the subjects; the subjects showed inhuman strength. They immediately pounced on their attackers and used their teeth as a most effective weapon. Six armed men lost consciousness as their attackers touched their teeth to their skin. One’s arm was devoured by the subjects. There was another vision in Liz's mind: A doctor chose the macho looking guy who had tried to attack her to go first. When he walked in, the guy was more terrified than he had ever been in his life. Security strapped him into the long box-shaped metal frame. He was encased in what looked like a hollow cage without the extra bars in the middle, and two flat iron bars met in the center of his body. Attached to their undersides were many small, sharp, iron spikes, suspended above his chest. A guard nodded at her and without warning, she pressed a button which suddenly lowered the two iron bars, plunging the spikes into the middle of his chest and abdomen. He screamed and clenched his fists as blood began oozing out, then turned his head to look at me. The doctor raised her eyebrows. “I’ll only start when you’re ready. Remember, the longer you wait, the more it’ll hurt,” She reminded him. He breathed heavily, and then turned his head back around to look at his bleeding body. Then he winced and looked away again. Soon, he wouldn't be like this anymore! The next day, there was a woman who was dragged into the room, screaming and begging. She shouted that she didn’t do it, and that she was innocent, but the doctor was taking none of it. She signaled at security to strap her into the confinements. She didn’t bother to warn her. Slowly, the doctor took out a syringe and a small jar full of bluish-yellow liquid. She closed the box then unscrewed the jar lid, sucking out a syringe-full of its contents. "No, please, don’t do this to me-" The doctor walked closer, showing her that she was uninterested. She continued to sob and pant. “I wasn’t the one,” she whispered as she shook her head frantically. “I know who killed her, it wasn’t me! Don’t do it!” As the fluid entered her skin, her neck started to turn slightly blue, and her veins swelled up. She gasped in agony. Then the doctor ran over to the laptop and started the timer. According to the measurements, she should be dead in around three days. Before they had to turn her body into the body of a monster! The next day, there was a buzz and excitement coming from Briar’s cell-phone as she answered, “Oh my God, Brie! Guys! You’re never gonna believe this!!! There’s a new world mission for you guys!” cried Sylver. Briar was surprised, “What, really?” She asked. “Yes, I was just browsing and look—there’s a new mission!” Sylver yelled. The speakers turned on and Lily’s voice ring out: “ATTENTION ALL AGENTS, A NEW MISSION OF A NEW WORLD IS HERE!!! I REPEAT; A NEW WORLD IS HERE!!! THE RABBIT HOLE HAS A WONDERLAND ON THE OTHER SIDE!!!” Cheers were heard around and all agents went to this new world. Once there, Briar and her friends were spellbound by the world they were in. “What is this?” Maggie asked. “They call it Britannia…Nice, and that there is Japan and the Chinese Federation.” Briar said, she looked on the MPD and reads it: “A prince who changed the world with calamity, he had a cloud of vengeance against his kingdom.” Lola reads from it too, “Now he has returned from the ‘dead’ as it turns out to be.” She concludes. Just then, there was a panic arising as Briar and the gang scattered. Briar got separated from her friends as she saw a familiar sight, “So it is you, Lelouch vi Britannia.” She whispered. In the chaos; Lelouch was falling and Briar went after him! Briar stopped Lelouch with her telepathy, “You can’t! You’ll die; you have to leave for now! I know how you feel but don’t worry, I will help you but please Lelouch…Please be calm.” Lelouch was stunned as he pulled up and Briar helped him however Lelouch pushed her away. “GET AWAY FROM ME! GETAWAY FROM ME!!!” Lelouch exclaimed. “BE CALM!!!” Briar instructed loudly. “WHO ARE YOU?!” demanded Lelouch. “My name is Briar Devlin!” Briar insisted. “You were in my head! How did you do that?!” Lelouch demanded. “You have your powers, I have mine, just be calm!!!” Briar begged. Lelouch was calmed, “I thought I was alone…” He whispered. Briar placed a hand on his shoulder, “You’re not alone. Lelouch? You’re not alone.” She assured him. Meanwhile; Chloe got to meet a mysterious girl in the confusion, she was probably scared out of her wits. “Who are you?” Chloe asked. “I’m C2.” The girl said. Chloe felt awkward, “So, about Lelouch, you’re….” She tries to say, but C2 clarifies: “…His mistress? Yes.”  Chloe’s eyebrow rose, “Oh….kay then….” She said. In the interim; Lola was not in the commotion as she was doing some work. “Ugh! Talk about trash lately. Can’t believe I’m doing this!” Lola complained, picking up the trash with gloved hands. “Puts bread on the table.” Mirajane chirped in the ear piece. “Shut up, Mira!” Lola demanded. “She’s right; it really does put food on the table. It could help us a lot.” Lisanna teased. “Lisanna…Don’t start with me…” Lola warned. The light banter went on until the communication was shut off for now. During the trash picking; Lola pulled out a handkerchief, waving it around dramatically. “Oh, I’m a fair maiden. Sure, I’m a princess, locked away in a tower. Help me, O help me my brave and handsome knight…” She said in a mock tone but the handkerchief swooped from her hand. Lola gasped, “DAMMIT!!!” She said as she went after the handkerchief while grunting and cursing. Just then, someone seized it and Lola stops in her tracks. She stood up to see a handsome, kind young man that looked weary. “Yours, I believe.” He said. Lola gasps softly. She blushed and struck out her hand. “Lola Nikita.” Lola introduced her. “Suzaku Kururugi.” The young man also introduced himself. In the meantime; Lelouch looked at the city of Britannia and Japan. “I’ve been dead for some time.” Lelouch remarked. “Really? You hardly look like a dead corpse, Your Grace.” Briar joked. Unknown to them; Rosemary and Pansy were enchanted with the sight of Lelouch, “Sister, he interests me. Do you think he’ll like me?” Rosemary asked. “Of course he will, how could he not?” Pansy said. It was then Lelouch received a letter and Briar looked over as her blood went cold to see what the note said, “I see you’ve returned, Your Grace. I hope you don’t mind me saying this; I want your ‘love’ and your revenge. You interest me, I’ll be watching over you. Sincerely Rosemary Fury.” Lelouch glanced over at Briar with a suspicious look. “Rosemary Fury, isn’t it?” Lelouch asked. Briar looked at him, “She is not someone you want as your enemy.” She said. Lelouch smiled, “If you are an angel, then I am a demon.” He said. Briar grinned, “A demon? You? Ha, I’m too nice to be clean and you’re too pretty to be a demon. Really, you deserve better.” She said. “And what is it that you know about me?” Lelouch asked in a chilling tone. “Everything, Your Grace.” Briar said with a bow. “Then, stay out of my mind, Briar.” Warned Lelouch. “I’m trying not to intrude, Daisuke. I know about your brother Clovis, he was innocently guilty to your better judgment. Cornelia was ruthless but at least she turned over a new leaf and atoned for her sins. She remains alive, and about Schnitzel? Oh please, that charismatic bastard but such a monster he concealed until his true colors were unraveled. Poor, dear Euphemia…You mercy killed her right in front of Suzaku. He loved her so…Rolo was a ‘sibling’ that gave up everything for you, and died as a result. And your dear mother, she didn’t deserve this…But your father, Charles, he was cruel to you—well that son of a bitch got what was coming to him…” ranted Briar. Lelouch felt irritated, “SILENCE!!! I HEARD ENOUGH FROM YOU!!!” He exclaimed. Briar quieted down, before speaking again: “You’re concern about Nunnally aren’t you? You were trying to do all you could to make her happy.” Lelouch’s face softened tragically. “I just…wanted to create a better world for her.” He said. Briar patted his shoulder, “I know you did, it’s OK.” She said. 

That’s when the news had footage of a ‘mysterious girl’ and they showed what they were: The first footage showed of Rosemary playing the piano and singing in a creepy, beautiful voice: “I've heard there was a secret chord, that David played, and it pleased the Lord, but you don't really care for music, do you? It goes like this--The fourth, the fifth--The minor fall, the major lift--The baffled king composing Hallelujah! Hallelujah….Hallelujah… Hallelujah…Hallelujah…Baby I've been here before, I've seen this room and I've walked this floor, I used to live alone before I knew you. I've seen your flag on the marble arch but love is not a victory march--It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah…Hallelujah…. Hallelujah…Hallelujah…Hallelujah…Maybe there's a God above, all I've ever learned from love, was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you. And it's not a cry that you hear at night, it's not somebody who's seen the light--It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah… Hallelujah…. Hallelujah…Hallelujah…Hallelujah…” She turn to the camera and smiled eerily. The second shot showed Pansy dressing up as vintage dressed, wavy haired girls while smiling and doing this while in other shots show her singing in a creepy, pretty voice that haunts those who hear it: “Pretty women.....Fascinating...Sipping coffee....Dancing...Pretty women, are a wonder. Pretty women! Sitting in the window or standing on the stair. Something in them cheers the air, Pretty women. Silhouetted...Stay within you....Glancing...Stay forever...Breathing lightly...Pretty women...Pretty women! Blowing out their candles, Combing out their hair, Then they leave--Even when they leave you and vanish, they somehow can still can remain...Are there, they're there....” It ends with Pansy shedding a tear and stares at the caged birds as she sings again: “Green finch and linnet bird, Nightingale, blackbird...How is it you sing? How can you jubilate sitting in cages? Never taking wing? Outside the sky waits--Beckoning, beckoning just beyond the bars. How can you remain staring at the rain? Maddened by the stars? How is it you sing anything? How is it you sing?” The scene shifts and showed Rosemary dressed as Lelouch with his Zero costume that shocked everyone that saw it. Rosemary begin to do hand motions like Lelouch did while she sang, “There's a hole in the world like a great black pit, And the vermin of the world inhabit it, And its morals aren't worth what a pig would spit, And it goes by the name of Britannia. One place is the Chinese Federation, the other is known as Elevens called Japanese, who are treated like shit. I too have sailed the world and seen its wonders, for the cruelty of men is as wondrous as Japan, but there's no place like Britannia!” She stopped for a moment as a play that resembled a silent film that showed Lelouch’s dark past and Rosemary as Lelouch while Pansy was silently watching her as C2. “There was a prince and his mother, And she was beautiful. A foolish barber and his wife, She was his reason and his life, And she was beautiful, And she was virtuous.....And she was dead...He had this mother, y'see. Pretty little thing, Silly little nit...Had her chance for the moon on a string. Poor thing! Poor thing! Ah, but there was worse yet to come poor thing! Lelouch was there, poor thing poor thing, he bared witness to her death. Dear Nunnally was there and was shocked, her mother was the reason she was crippled pretty thing. Nunnally was shocked by the sight, that's why she became this way you see....Poor soul, poor thing....They all deserve to die....Tell you why, C2, tell you why. Because in all of the whole human race C2, there are two kinds of men and only two. There's the one staying put in his proper place, And the one with his foot in the other one's face. Look at me, C2, look at you. No, we all deserve to die. Even you, C2, even I. Because the lives of the wicked should be made brief, For the rest of us death will be relief--We all deserve to die! And he'll never see Nunnally, No he'll never hug his girl to him...Finished! Alright! You, sir, how about dying for me? Come and visit your good friend Zero. You, sir, too, sir? Welcome to the grave.....I will have vengeance, I will have salvation...Who, sir, you, sir? No one's in the chair, come on! Come on! Zero's waiting, I want you, bleeders! You sir! Anybody! Gentlemen, now don't be shy! Not one man, no, nor ten men...Nor a hundred can assuage me, I will have you!” The scene shows Ophelia with her face hiding in her long tresses and singing to sleeping Rue and Collie to sleep: “Careful the things you say, Children will listen. Careful the things you do, Children will see and learn. Children may not obey, but children will listen. Children will look to you, for which way to turn. To learn what to be, Careful before you say 'Listen to me', children will listen. Careful the wish you make, wishes are children. Careful the path they take, Wishes come true, not free. Careful the spell you cast, not just on children. Sometimes a spell may last, past what you can see, And turn against you. Careful the tale you tell, that is the spell. Children will listen, Listen…..Nothing's gonna harm you, Not while I'm around. Nothing's gonna harm you, darling, not while I'm around. Demons are prowling everywhere....Nowadays. I'll send them howling, I don't care--I got ways. No one's gonna hurt you, No one's gonna dare. Others can desert you, not to worry, whistle, I'll be there. Demons'll charm you with a smile, for a while...But in time....Nothing can harm you, Not while I'm around.” There was a humming sound and Ophelia slowly turned to the screen with a soulless look in her eyes. And then, it changed where Rosemary begin to do ballet waltz while silent film plays of how she was bullied and tortured by those that wronged her before she killed them and finally, she smiled demonically with a goal set to revenge. While this was going on; her beautiful, haunted singing played in the background: “I started a joke which started the whole world crying, But I didn't see, that the joke was on me. I looked at the skies running my hands over my eyes, And I fell out of bed hurting my head from things that I said. I started to cry which started the whole world laughing, Oh If I'd only seen that the joke was on me. I looked at the skies running my hands over my eyes, And I fell out of bed hurting my head from things that I said. I finally died, which started the whole world living, Oh if I'd only seen that the joke was on me.” The scene changes where Rosemary and Pansy twirls as they sang: “I torture you, Take my hand through the flames. I torture you, I'm a slave to your games--I'm just a sucker for pain. I wanna chain you up, I wanna tie you down. I'm just a sucker for pain! Used to doing bad, now we feel like we just now getting it. Ain't got no other way so we started and finished it! No pain, no gain. Never stand down, made our own way. Never going slow, we pick up the pace. This is what we wanted from a young age--No emotion, that's what business is! Lord have mercy on the witnesses. I torture you, Take my hand through the flames. I torture you, I'm just a sucker for pain. More pain--Got me begging, begging, begging, begging, begging. For more pain; Got me begging, begging, begging, begging, begging. For more pain. Got me begging, begging, begging, begging, begging, For more pain...Got me begging!” They stopped and laughed while on the ground. The scene shifts and Pansy is on a stage singing: “Think of me, think of me fondly, When we've said goodbye. Remember me, once in a while--Please, promise me you'll try. When you find that once again you long, To take your heart back and be free. If you ever find a moment, Spare a thought for me. We never said 'our love was evergreen', Or 'as unchanging as the sea', But if you can still remember, Stop and think of me. Think of all the things, We've shared and seen. Don't think about the, Things which might have been. Think of me, think of me waking. Silent and resigned, Imagine me trying too hard. To put you from my mind, Recall those days, look back on all those times. Think of the things we'll never do, there will never be a day. When I won't think of you.” And lastly, the final footage shows of Rosemary and Pansy singing in tuneful and vaporous voices:“They say that this youth has set my Lady's heart aflame! His Lordship, sure, would die of shock! Her Lordship is a laughingstock! Should she suspect her, God protect her! Shame! Shame! Shame! This faithless lady's bound for Hades! Shame! Shame! Shame! Serafimo—your disguise is perfect. Why, who can this be? Gentle sister, admit your loving sister. My love—I am called to Chinese Federation on affairs of State, and must leave you with your new maid...Though I would happily take the maid with me...The old fool is leaving! Serafimo—away with this pretense! You cannot speak—but kiss me in my sister's absence! Poor fool, he makes me laugh! Hahahahahaha...Time I tried to get a better better half! Poor fool, he doesn't know! Hohohohohoho...If he knew the truth, he'd never, ever go! Serafimo, away with this pretense! You cannot speak, but kiss me in my—Poor fool, he makes me laugh! Hahahahahahaha—!” And the footage ended, flabbergasting other people as they were freaked out by it. People begin gossip about it days later and wonder if it’s a cryptic message or just a bunch of strange videos. Later, Briar was having dinner and then she was about to leave when she saw Cornelia. “Miss Devlin? Congratulations!” Cornelia praised. “Oh, thanks. I didn’t think I’d eat all this food.” Briar joked. Cornelia smiled, “I mean, on your….performance of identifying the girls in the video.” She clarified. “Ah, thank you so much.” Briar said with gratefulness. It was then Cornelia explained that the same girl was trying to get Lelouch’s attention and begins to think this could be a trap. Briar realized it is Rosemary and realized this. “Wait!” Briar said, stopping Cornelia in her tracks. “This conundrum sounds dangerous but be grateful, you talked to the right person…I’d be happy to help.” Cornelia’s smiled, “Thank you. Now you’re being too nice.” She said. “Sue me.”  Briar joked. The next footage was a real eye opener where Rosemary announces: “Good evening, residents of the entire world! Some of our crazier guests have crashed the party early, and when I say crazy, I mean REAL psycho. Word of warning, if anyone sees a dribbling fool barking at the moon or maybe just purring like a kitten, do your civic duty. Walk up to them, put your arm around them, show them that you care...before you wring their necks! Here's what's new in the land of Lelouch today... Some idiot is running around, dressed like a monster! I know! Crazy! He should be considered costumed and dangerous. Tell me Lelouch, What are you really scared of? Failing to save your dear sweet sister? Not able to rescue your precious Suzaku in time? Me, in a thong with a bloodied chainsaw?” She burst out laughing while Briar and the others glared at her on the screen and finally calmed down as she continued: “I've been thinking lately. About Lelouch. About what's going to happen to him and his retinue, in the end. Some of us are going to kill each other, aren't we? Perhaps he'll kill me. Perhaps I'll kill him. Perhaps sooner. Perhaps later. I just wanted him to know that I'd made a genuine attempt to talk things over and avert that outcome. His past is so grisly, makes you feel sorry for him and I have to say I hated looking on the past. Memories can be vile. Repulsive little brutes, like children I suppose. But can we live without them? Memories are what our reason is based upon. If we can't face them, we deny reason itself! Although, why not? We aren't contractually tied down to rationality. There is no sanity clause. So when you find yourself locked down in an unpleasant train of thought, heading for the places in your past where the screaming is unbearable, remember: There's always madness. You can just step outside and close the door, and all those dreadful things that happened, you can lock them away. Madness... is an emergency exit…And speaking of him, here’s a song to sing in his honor!” Rosemary said happily. Just then, the sound of a metal guitar and organ piano being played. “In a trance he came and speaks my name. And I won't remember what he did to me, Lelouch vi Britannia is there...Inside my mind....” Pansy sang. Briar couldn’t look at Lelouch or Suzaku, which they looked surprised by the song. Then, Rosemary sneered in the screen and begins to sing: “Command me once again my dear, your great Geass. Your power over us grows stronger yet. And as you come back from the dead, what will you do now? Lelouch vi Britannia is there, Inside our minds….” And then, Rosemary and Pansy begins to sing together: “Those who have seen your face, Draw back in fear. You are the mask you wear; It's you they hear...Your spirit and your voice, In one combined. Lelouch vi Britannia is there, inside our--Beware, Lelouch vi Britannia....He's there, Lelouch vi Britannia.” After seeing that latest footage; Lelouch and Suzaku were disturbed but they knew they learn the girls are luring Lelouch so they decide to approach these girls. 

In a while that night; Rosemary and Pansy were waiting as they saw someone coming which excited to see someone. “He’s there, Lelouch vi Britannia~!” squealed Rosemary. Lelouch was terrified, “She’s there, Rosemary Fury!” He whispered. Rosemary greeted Lelouch and stared in his eyes. “You look beautiful, Rosemary.” Lelouch said, touching her cheek. Rosemary blushed, “Not as beautiful as you, Your Grace.” She flirted. “I’m flattered.” Lelouch said with a chuckle. In the meantime; Suzaku approached Pansy, “Pansy…” Suzaku gasped. Pansy turned around and grinned, “Suzaku, you came.” She said. The two sisters lead those two and brought Lelouch & Suzaku to a theatre. It was then a section of the scene from Love Never Dies being played: After sharing her feelings, Meg decides to let Gustave live and releases him. She produces a gun and holds it to her head, intent on ending her misery. The Phantom tries to apologize and console her, but when he unthinkingly mentions Christine's name, Meg becomes agitated once again. When the Phantom tries to take the gun from her, Meg accidentally shoots Christine. After Madame Giry and Meg are dispatched to find help, Christine reveals to Gustave that the Phantom is his real father and the shocked boy flees. Christine tells the Phantom that her love for him will never die, then they share a final kiss and she dies in his arms. Gustave returns with Raoul, who looks on silently and sadly, and Gustave lays his head on his mother's lap. The Phantom surrenders Christine's body to Raoul, then moves to the edge of the pier and collapses to his knees in grief. Gustave goes to the weeping Phantom, who sings to him, and the boy embraces his real father for the first time. Gustave then removes the Phantom's mask, but does not react as he did before; instead, he gently touches the Phantom's face in an act of acceptance. Gustave and the Phantom gaze at one another as the curtain falls. Lelouch and Suzaku were confused until another scene plays which they both recognized that broke them up emotionally: In this haunted, unforgettable memory; Lelouch, with much regret, fatally shoots her in the stomach to end her rampage while revealing that he considered Euphemia his first love. He nevertheless takes advantage of the chaos, rallying the angry Japanese populace into a massive army and leading it against the Britannian forces. Euphemia's body is recovered by Suzaku and she spends her final moments with him. The command to kill him, as he is of Japanese descent, tries to take hold, but she resists it, either because she cares for him too much or is simply incapable of carrying it out. As she is unaware of what she did and asks if she made the right decision, Suzaku decides to lie and tells her that the Japanese were happy with the Japan she created. She cries with joy telling him that she is glad it worked out. Suddenly she can't see his face anymore and the both of them begin to cry. Realizing she has little time Euphemia urges Suzaku to stay in school for the both of them and dies smiling telling him how glad she is. That’s when another scary memory played out: After the festival, she is exposed to Jeremiah Gottwald's Geass Canceler, restoring the memories which both Lelouch and the Emperor had erased. After coming to terms with it, she comes to understand Lelouch's motivations and forgives him after realizing that he is alone in his quest. She later asks Suzaku if he could forgive Lelouch to which Suzaku refuses. She tells him that she forgave him a long time ago and that nothing is unforgivable. She resolves to support Lelouch as the one true thing in her life, but runs into Rolo. He sees Shirley with a gun searching for Lelouch, she tells him that she wants to join them because she loves Lelouch and she wants to help him get Nunnally back. At that moment he then uses his Geass on her and mortally wounds her with a gunshot to her upper abdomen. When Lelouch finds her, she is lying in a pool of her own blood. She confesses her feelings to Lelouch and reveals that even knowing he killed her father and had memories erased of him twice, she kept falling in love with him over and over again. In a desperate attempt, Lelouch commands her to live by using his Geass, however, due to the massive blood loss, his Geass fails and she dies at his side.  Lelouch and Suzaku are shocked when they saw the last memory that caused them to screamed: Rosemary and Pansy to snap, emotions out of control as well as their powers which caused their heads to cut Jude’s head clean off! Blood spurts out, like a geyser and Rosemary is turned on by the gore as she and Mora killed the other torturous teenagers. They were skewered, electrocuted, and cut into pieces by the telekinetic rage of the Fury Sisters! Rosemary and Pansy failed at finding happiness, they are lost yet confused as they will not let it go. It was too much repetition of the past so Rosemary knows; she understands what life really is—a cruel world with no mercy or kindness. It was a real bitch, a crappy yet evil life! Later; Lelouch and Suzaku were shocked by what they went through. Lelouch confided in Briar while Suzaku divulged in Lola. “They seduced us and hurt us!!! Why?!” Suzaku demanded. “The Fury Family are life ruiners!” claimed Lola. “Those girls are pure evil, they’re just evil teenagers with something more sinister.” Keigen claimed. “They’re mother is ten times worst!” Lola declared. Suzaku looked at Lola in terror, “Mother?! Oh no!” He groaned. Lola nodded, “Yes, Mother Fury….Ophelia.” She said. They were quiet for awhile until Suzaku spoke up. “Tell me something you levitate that with your mind, didn’t you?” Suzaku asked. Lola gasped. “WHAT DID YOU SAY?!” She almost screamed. All of a sudden; Lola got a phone call from Briar and meet her & the others as they confronted the Fury sisters and her friends as things got intense. “What is your damage, Rosemary?” Briar demanded. Rosemary laughed a little, “OK, look. Technically, I did not try and kill Daisuke but hey who am I try to kid right? I just want my society to be a nice place. Amen….Did that sound bitchy?” She asked. Then, she begins to rant: “ORDER and CHAOS fill your eyes and BRAIN! Chaos is what killed the dinosaurs, darling. And this isn’t spoken through my Cousin Red. And to add on a light note, the extreme always seem to make an impression.” Briar and the others are horrified, as Briar spoke up. “Life’s a bitch and then you die!” She growled. “Correction, brutally maimed my dear.” Rosemary teased. “Still, she’s gonna die!!!!” Carna laughed. C2 managed to pull out a gun and shoots at Andrea & her posse, who dodged them. “Look at what the kitty dragged in!” Rosemary commented. “ME—OW!!!” Pansy mocked. C2 shots more shots from the gun but Andrea and the others dodged them. “Oh, so aggressive! It’s turning me on!” Rosemary said with a squeal, “I’m petrified!” C2 was angry, but then she was pinned to the wall by a telekinetic force. Daisuke was horrified, C2 struggled as Rosemary grinned. “C2, my love. There’s a new sheriff in town.” Rosemary purred. “Learn it.” Pansy commented. “Live it.” Carna remarked. “Love it!” Nyx gushed. “Hell yes!” Blossom cheered. “Dear God, it’s a nightmare!” Pansy said in shock but she laughed maniacally. Rosemary sneered, “Terribly sorry your Majesty, but you’re time is up!” She said, pointing her weapon at Lelouch however there was a gun went off. Rosemary’s weapon was against the floor. “WHAT?!” Rosemary screamed, “STEPHANIE!!!!” Lelouch and Suzaku stared at Rory Leigh in amazement, “Who’s that?” Lelouch asked. “Rory Leigh. Fastest weapon of all, pretty cool huh?” Briar said with a grin. Andrea was angry and managed to escape. It was then later, Suzaku told Lola about Euphemia’s death was all on Lelouch, who was Zero at the time, “Wait, Lelouch murdered Euphemia?” Lola asked. Suzaku nodded, “Yes but yet I feel like I was to blame for not saving her…It’s my entire fault…..” He said in a choked up voice. “Shh, it’s OK.” Lola whispered, hugging him. She thought to herself, “He and I…were the same….” That’s when; Lola looked at him and smiled. “I like your uniform. You look ravishing in it.” She flirted. Suzaku smiled softly, “Really? Thanks.” He said and looked at the scarred arms. “Your body is covered in scars, what happened to you?” inquired Suzaku. Lola looked away for him. “Nothing, Suzaku…” She said. Suzaku hugged her, “It’s OK, I’m here.” He said. Lola begins to sob, “Oh Suzaku, don’t leave me side, please…” She whispered. “I won’t.” Suzaku said. At night; Rosemary was ready to encounter Briar and her friends when there was a beeping and Andrea grinned. “We have incoming, the Pack is here!” Rosemary said in the speakers. “I’ll be right over!” Pansy called. She was rushing to see Briar and the gang confronting Rosemary and her posse when all of a sudden, someone came in and Andrea used her powers but was shocked to see it was Lelouch’s sister Nunnally. Rosemary begins to sink to the floor. “I just hurt one of the nicest people!” gasped Rosemary. “And Lelouch’s sister.” Pansy corrected. “Same difference.” Rosemary said, crying. Lelouch and Suzaku are confused, Briar looked at him: “She’s like the Joker. Purple Lambroghini bastard with green hair.” She explained. Rosemary and her posse retreated! Briar and the others revealed to be agents and long story short, Lelouch and the others were recruited. 

Just then, she was reported that another world and then Briar joined the others. That’s when, a girl was in trouble. Briar and the gang went down and rescued her. The girl was shocked to see Briar! “Who are you?” asked the girl. “I’m Briar Devlin.” Briar introduced. “I’m saved?” The girl asked. “Yes, what’s your name?” asked Briar. “Ritsuka.” Said the girl. “Randi, keep her safe.” Briar instructed. It was then, four guys who looked attractive and darkly mysterious. “Ritsuka…” The young man said. Ritsuka smiled, “Rem, you’re back!”  She said. “Ah-ha!” whispered Briar. Briar’s friends got to meet Rem’s friends. A dashing fellow, a brawny man and an eerie guy! “I’m Urie, pleasure to meet you.” Said the charming man. “Mage.” Said the brawn man. “Shiki.” Purred the man. It was then Lindo came and met everyone. Lindo tells Lola about how he and the other guys swear to protect Ritsuka. Briar smiled as Ritsuka felt at ease. Soon; Briar and the others knew trouble was coming and they headed off! There, Andrea was causing chaos all around. “YOU WILL ALL DIE!!!” Rosemary exclaimed, “FURY!!!” Just then, a man looking sinister but handsome. Ritsuka realized who it was. “Father!” Ritsuka cried. “Ritsuka!” Her father exclaimed. Briar pulled her, “Move, move, move!” She said in a hushed tone. Briar and the gang fought Rosemary and the others as they managed to get away. It was then later, Lindo discovered that Briar and her friends were really agents as Ritsuka was shocked. Briar heard this and decides to come clean. “So you found out, now what?” Briar asked. Ritsuka and the other two were speechless however Briar said, “You want to come with me…all of you?” Ritsuka nodded with a smile, “…Yes.” She said. Briar smiled. Later, Briar got everyone together. “Gather around, we’re taking you all to New Americana.” Briar said to the gang. “Really?” Shiki asked. “Sounds exciting!” Urie commented. “Let’s go!” cheered Mage. When Ritsuka and the boys arrived at Evermore; they caused a shock to everyone else! “Who invited these people? They must be from your side of the family.” Betty demanded in a panic. “Certainly not! Why as God as my witness, I would be shitting my pants at the sight of this!” Corentine exclaimed. “Hello, where do you keep the grimoires?” Urie said with a wink. Corentine and Betty are scared as they ran while screaming, “AHHHH!!!!!!!!” The devils are closing in but Anna Ray was brave enough to step closer. “You OK?” Anna Ray asked. Surprised; Rem nods and smiles shyly at Anna Ray, “Yes, thank you.” But soon there was a deadline and it was all up to Sylver for there was no time for agents to head to other worlds: “I gotta choose within the universes? No wait--people, we need more people here now!” Sylver said as she typed away. “OK, got that one and this one! Let’s rock!” Sylver summoned the universes she chose and warped them to DWC at once! Meanwhile; Corentine was having a smoke while chatting Betty and Anna Ray when they discovered dark clouds and something falling out of the cloud! Anna Ray was the first to approach the figure, who was rising and asked: “Who are you?” She asked. Meanwhile; the figure is a  brown haired boy with strange things in his hair woke up and saw Briar but he noticed the building he was in that was huge and different. The boy smiled. “Oh, how awesome!” said the boy, staring over at Briar. “Who are you?” Blushing; Briar smiled, “A human.” She said. And then she pointed over to the brown haired boy. “Sorey.” Briar noted, she looked at the other guy. “Mikleo.” She then said, “You are the ‘servant’ of the Shepherd…Am I right?” She said. Mikleo looked surprised, “How did you…” He is about to ask, but Briar pointed her forehead, “Mind over matter, my good man.” She said. Briar looked back at Sorey and said these words. “You remind me of Yuu Hyakuya.” Sorey looked at her funny, “Why?” Sorey asked. “Your cheerful. Cute. Dorky a little, I can tell.” Briar said. Mikleo looked away and noticed Chloe looking. She realized this and smiles at him widely. “Hi.” Chloe said to Mikleo, she couldn’t help but giggle. “What?” Mikleo asked. “You look like Mikaela.” Chloe noted. In the meantime; Randi was walking in the city when she tripped almost, she cursed: “All of the…” She looked down and gasped, “Jeepers Creepers! It’s a girl!” Randi looked around and helped the girl, who turned out to be Lailah. For the time being; Alisha Diphda and her friends, Ian and Shiller as they encountered Lola who was looking around. Lola felt that Alisha is a kind yet wise young lady for her age that experienced a lot. Meanwhile; Maggie was in training against her friends when BV invited Edna while recruiting the two. During this time; Edna looked at Maggie’s outfit and herself, they are surprised by her violent behavior. In the meantime; Tilda got a chance to meet Rose and the Sparrow Feathers—who are formerly known as the Scatter Bones--while Marina recruited Zaveid. For the moment; Yuu and Mika was walk down talking while Sorey and Mikleo, in the meantime, while discussing but they ran into each other. But when they saw first see each other; they are shocked. “Yuu Hyakuya, you’re Yuu Hyakuya?” Sorey gasped. “You’re Mika?!” Mikleo gasped. They talked a little until Kureto was mentioned as Sorey and Mikleo offered to deal with him when Sylver stamped her foot. “Stay away from Kureto Hiragi!” Sylver exclaimed, “HE’S MINE!!!!” She turned and stomped off with Sorey and Mikleo looking confused but Yuu and Mika nervously shrugged it off. As she was alone; Briar remembered the memory: There was music, mingling, and food there. She was sitting with Eren and Yuu, "Wow. What a crowd this is." remarked Briar. "Yes, it is." Eren agreed. Just then, someone appeared at the microphone, it was Alem. "May I have your attention please?" He said. Everyone stopped what they were doing as they looked at him. Alem cleared his throat before continuing, "I have a special award for the greatest warrior. And these go to—Briar Devlin." Briar couldn't believe this, she looked at Eren and Yuu which they were grinning too as she stood up and went to the stage while others were applauding. Briar was honored of her awards, the applause faded but someone was still clapping. Everyone turned to see who but they frowned or glared at that person. They looked at Jacob Hatcher angrily. "Oh, look at this! Ain't it touching?" mocked Jacob, pretending to cry but was smirking. "I love celebrations, I really do." Briar's eyes bulged in horror. "Our great heroes are honored at long last but you won't be honored when I play...This!" A large TV image plays of someone entering a movie cinema. Briar couldn't believe it, "It can't be!" She gasped. Next were gunshots, people screaming. It shows images of Briar's friends and other people being shot at. "Oh my..." Solo gasped. "Oh no...!" Briar cursed. Everyone was horrified by these images however Jacob laughed. He was in hysterics of this. He thought this was all so funny? How dare he...Briar's body tremble but felt a rough hand on her back, "Bitch, are you gonna cry--" Jacob said. Briar turned to him fiercely with her telekinesis. Jacob flew back into a column. "Ohhh!" The crowd gasped. "Uh oh." Nai said softly. "Brie." Ichigo muttered. Eren was furious at Jacob, he ran over at him and cried, "You will pay for that!!!!!!" "Eren!" Armin cried. Too late, Jacob pulled out a gun and fired at Eren. Eren fell to the ground, "Nooooo! Eren...!!!!" Briar screamed. She rushed over to him. Briar felt hot tears running down her face, she turned to Jacob. Her veins pulsed with anger. A turning point where her powers are activating. She looked up and spread out her arms, where her powers bend the lights from above. Everyone looked up in horror. "Oh crap..." Chloe thought. Marina and the others forced the doors opened and shouted, "Everyone out NOW!!!!" Immediately; the crowd rushes out. Nai look back, he was concerned about his friend. "Brie!" Nai cried, Gareki seized him and said, "Come on, let's go!" Nai tried to struggle but Gareki pulled him away. In the abandoned party, Briar and Jacob were the only ones in there, Jacob tried to attack her but Briar flexed her hand, telekinetically choking him by the throat. She threw him backwards and he landed there. Briar uses her powers to cause a fire. The others peeked inside, what they saw was hell. The whole place was scorched of fire. But the doors closed automatically. She wanted to kill him however she realized something, this wasn't sure about this and lets him live. Later, Briar stalks away from the now destroyed party in anguish over what happened. How dare Jacob did that to her, how cruel he was. Well, he won't come around here anymore. Just then, someone followed her and came up to her, putting a hand on her. Briar whirled around, gasping. "Briar, it's me!" Eren said with a small smile. Briar let out a sigh and embraced him. "Eren, you're all right." She said. Briar buried her face, there was heaving of sobs. Eren hugged her back, "I'm sorry that happened." He said, patting her back tenderly. Briar sniffed. "Oh, Eren! It was awful. He was so mean to me..." She blubbered. Eren could only pat her back, soothing her: "It's OK, Brie. It's OK..." But he looked up and his eyes widened with terror. A deranged Jacob who was smiling like a Cheshire as he held a knife. His hair was a mess and was bleeding from his hands. He panted and heaved, "I will not stop until I kill you, Briar." yelled Jacob. Eren grabbed Briar, helping her up and shouted, "Run, you guys!" They ran, however Jacob chased after them. He was still clutching the knife as he waved it. Laughing maniacally. Briar, Eren and Yuu did not stopped. But they did, they found themselves at a cliff. Jacob laughed more malicious, "End of the line, you damn ass." He exclaimed. Briar held her friends close, she glared at Jacob, who lunged at them. "DIE!!!" He cried. "No!" She exclaimed. Briar telekinetically seized him by the throat and pulls him toward her but she did it too far. Briar, Eren and Yuu watched as Jacob fell down to his death. Briar couldn't believe what she had done. "I killed him...I....AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!" She screamed hysterically, waving her hands frantically. Eren took her hands and speaking to her, "Briar, Briar." When Briar didn't answered; Yuu slapped her. Briar stopped screaming, she slowly placed a hand on her cheek where she had been slapped. Briar looked at him, "Eren..." She whispered. Yuu sighed, "Sorry. Are you OK?" He asked. Briar feebly shakes her head. "I don't know, I can't live like..." She admitted. She went to the ledge and spread her arms out. She was about to take a step until Yuu reached for her. "Briar, nooo!" He cried. Eren and Yuu seized her, Briar struggled against them as she tried to push him away. "Let go of me! Let go! Lemme--" She ranted. "Don't even try, I am not letting go no matter what you say." Eren said. After many struggles; Briar gives up and embraces her friends. "Oh, you guys." She sobbed and begins crying until she fell asleep. Eren carried her, she felt light weighted in his arms. In the present, Briar realized she would turn out to be the Fury Family. Meanwhile; Benjamin watched the scene from the Moneta of Phantom of the Opera: Christine is getting ready for bed when she hears the Phantom singing to her. At the start of the song, the Phantom harshly criticizes Christine's childhood sweetheart, Raoul, saying that he is riding on her success. Assuming that he is the Angel of Music, the man who has been coaching her, she sings back about how she wishes to see his face. An image of the Phantom appears singing to and hypnotizing her. Christine slowly walks towards him, singing. She actually walks through the mirror of her room into the Phantom's tunnel. The song ends with the Phantom singing "I am your angel of music, come to the Angel of Music!" Raoul, expresses shock at hearing the Phantom's voice from outside Christine's dressing room, saying "Whose is that voice? Who is that in there?" Prior to this, however, Christine confides to her ballerina friend Meg Giry that an Angel of Music visits her, and they sing a duet of "Angel of Music" as well. "Little Lottie" is sung immediately after this. Later, at the end of the graveyard scene and after the song "Wishing You were Somehow Here Again," the Phantom attempts to lure Christine to him by reprising "Angel of Music," but is interrupted by Raoul, who sings "Angel of darkness, cease this torment!" and departs with a torn Christine. In the meantime; Briar and the others went after Dirge. Not because of what Rosemary said; but because Yoichi and Kimizuki got back from being kidnapped by Pansy and Blossom, but it is revealed that Dirge had set them free. Briar is suspicious and decides to pay him a visit. Dirge was just celebrating with his buddies when he noticed that unexpected visitors intrude. Dirge was annoyed, “Isn’t it always the way? You get in the mood and company showing up unexpectedly.” He remarked. Silhouettes approached as a voice said: “Josephat Dirge, you are under arrest.” But Dirge wasn’t intimidated. “Must admit Dirge, you and the kiddies are beyond expectation.” Dirge leered. Briar appeared with Yuu, Yoichi and Kimizuki left to right. “So you figured it out.” Briar noted. Dirge sent his men to gunned Briar and the others, Dirge sneered over them however he saw someone using a weapon towards him and looked up. “Not bad, love but I got someone better than you lassie!” called Dirge towards Shinoa. He pressed a button and more gunfire went off however everyone dodged this. “You’re full of surprises aren’t you Dirge? What, you can’t fight back too?” Shinoa teased mercilessly. “Fight?” laughed Dirge, “Me? I don’t like getting my hands dirty.” He escaped however Briar, Yuu, Yoichi and Kimizuki went after him! Briar, Yuu, Yoichi and Kimizuki looked around for Dirge when they heard his haughty voice. “Ah, you mates these days. Putting yourselves in places where you don’t belong. You should be taught a lesson.” Just then, there was a large fan that turned on as the four are nearly fled into the fan but they held on for dear life! “Guess things are blowing quite breezily! Oh, look what the wind brought in!” Dirge said while laughing. “Dammit, my hands are slipping!” Yuu exclaimed. “Augh, my eyes! I can’t see!” Kimizuki cried. “Can’t…hold on…much….longer….” Yoichi whimpered. “GUYS, WHATEVER YOU DO DON’T LET GO! DO NOT LET GO NO MATTER WHAT!!!” Briar screamed. During this time; Justine and Rayna looks up and saw Briar and the boys holding on for dear life while Dirge laughs. Angry at this sight, Justine turned to Rayna: “Rayna, get Yoichi! I’ll get Devlin and the troublemakers!” She instructed. “Gotcha!” called Rayna. Gliding up; Justine jumps up towards the fan in her rage. “Justine?!” Dirge gasped. “Take this, shithead! Haaahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!” Justine exclaimed, she punched the fan and it stopped. Briar and the three boys let go as they fell until Briar caught only Briar, Yuu and Kimizuki. “Gotcha.” Justine said. “Justine!” exclaimed Briar. “The hell?” Yuu demanded. “Terrific.” Sighed Kimizuki. Rayna managed to catch Yoichi and helped him. Yoichi looked at her in surprise, “Oh, hi Rayna!” Yoichi greeted. Rayna sighed, “Hey Yoichi, you OK?” She asked. “Yes, thank you for this. Is it just you or is Justine here too?” Yoichi asked. Rayna was surprised and she laughs, “How’d you guess?” She joked. “She’s here, that’s great!” Yoichi said. Briar, Yuu and Kimizuki as Rayna brought Yoichi. “So you were the only who rescued Yoichi and Kimizuki, weren’t you?” Briar asked. Yoichi and Kimizuki looked flabbergasted. “You didn’t want them to tell anyone you saved them from Pansy and Blossom. They lied so good but I knew they were hiding something.” Briar analyzed while at Justine. “I’m not surprised, I’m impressed that ‘dem boys’ didn’t rat me out. Bravi, bravi. Encore, why don’t you?” Justine said deadpanned. “Hey, if this is your way to owe me, thank you.” Briar said. “Yeah, yeah, you’re welcome. Listen, heard you went on a mission and brought new friends. Right?” Justine asked. “Yup, back in the game Justine.” Briar said with enthusiasm. “Goodie for you, now I can sniff ‘em out.” Justine said. “Careful Justine, it’ll be like Poor Icarus. Get too close to the sun and you burn.” Briar noted. “Believe me, I’ve been burnt before.” Justine said. “So, anyway…Where did Dirge go?” Yuu asked. “I’ll go after him.” Justine offered. “Justine…” warned Briar. “I can handle this, Briar.” Justine claimed. “But your history with Dirge…” Briar said. “You’re afraid I’ll burn? I’ll face the sun on my own, this time I won’t get scorched. I’ll fan the flames and by the time, I’m through with him; his memory will be in ashes.” Justine said. “…OK, well—good luck! Be careful.” Briar said. “Thanks, see you. Bye for now boys!” Justine said. With that; she turned and ran. “You think she’ll be OK?” Yoichi asked. “Sure she will. I know Justine, she’s a tough cookie but she can take care of herself, trust me.” Rayna said.

Just then, there was an argument between Emily and Benjamin as Briar and the others went to find out what’s going on. That’s when Emily seems to accuse Benjamin of ‘horrendous things’. Briar and the others were confused by this. “I didn’t…I’m…” Ben started to protest but Emily cuts him off. “You’d think I forgot what your father did to me! To the other children! To so many lives, after all of that….The experiments….” Emily was trembling, fighting back the tears. “What?” Briar said in shock, “You mean Ben’s father is…?” Emily nodded, “Yes, this man here is the son of the monstrous bastard—Marcello Hallows!” She said. Briar, Lola, Eren, Jean, Yuu and Kimizuki are all shocked by this! Artem’s face became nervous and tense. “No, this can’t be…” Briar uttered. “This has got to be a joke, right?” Lola asked. Ben looked pained. Taylor looked at him in anxiousness. Briar was tensed and quivering with shock as well as grief, she had her hair down like a curtain to hide her face. Hot tears streaming down her face, Eren and the others watched her in concern. “I don’t…I don’t know what to say…” Ben stammers. “You don’t know what to say?! Ohhh, sure! THE MONSTERS ARE YOURS BECAUSE YOU ARE LIKE YOUR FATHER!!! And now, you are control of this because of your obsession with your taste of resurrecting the dead? You think this whole thing is an experiment to you?!” Briar ranted. Ben protested while she was yelling, “No, no, no! I don’t see everything as an experiment!!!” Briar shouted, “WELL, IT’S SICK!!!! SICK AND TWISTED!!! I HATE YOU SO MUCH BENJAMIN HALLOWS!!!” Ben then called out, “PLEASE….!!!” But Shinoa said in a firm tone, “Please calm down! Everyone just calm down!” She managed to talk some sense into Briar who turns to Ben with a patient but violent stare. “Benjamin, you have 30 seconds. Speak while you still have a chance…GO!”  Briar commanded. Ben nodded feebly, “All right…All right, uh I—I had suffered…I’ve seen people went through diseases that are lethal and cannot be cured. Some who have weeks…Maybe months or years to live. Can you imagine that?” He managed to say. “Oh, that’s soo tragic!” Yuu said with sarcasm. “YOU!!! SHUT UP!!!” Briar exclaimed. Ben spoke again, “Hyakuya, sir, shh please! Eh—eh—um…I uh, I want to help them! I want them to be given a second chance…In death, it’s no different from life…I mean, I’m not a sadism towards humanity…I adore it so much, it’s so beautiful.” Ben grinned nervously. “Adoring humanity? Yeah, sure that’ll be in the papers…” Eren remarked but Briar interrupted him, “WHAT DID I SAY?! NO—BODY SPEAKS!!!! NO TALKS UNLESS I SAY SO!!!” She turned to Ben: “Did you take part with those other bastards? Did you?” She asked frantically with rage. “No, never! I never want to hurt any of them!” Ben protested. Briar nodded, “OK, how many survivors are out there?” She asked. Ben was shocked, he said back anxiously, “You don’t want to know.” Briar smiled with no humor in it, “Oh I do, Benji. How many? Tell me…” She said. Ben shook his head, “No Briar…” He started to object. “…No more hiding things FROM ME!!! Ben, I’M NOT SCREWING WITH ANYONE!!! TELL ME NOW OR ELSE!!” Briar screeched, her powers were out of whack! Everyone got scared, Ben was trying to calm down and Briar kept screaming while more tears ran down. Her furious nature was enough to scare people away from her! But they knew she was so solemn about, Briar almost lost it on taking down Ben but Pansy stepped in and cried out: “TAKE ME INSTEAD!!! LEAVE HIM ALIVE!!!” Ben is surprised by this, “Pansy…No…” He whispered. Ben was breathless as he turned and ran off! Later; Briar and the others were talking about the situation when Sylver came in and asked what was going on. She decides to join in and listen before Sylver suddenly was talking with Eren, Yuu and their friends, they were chattering and laughing when Sylver beamed with pride, “You guys are so grand! Betcha someone will do a book on you.” She gushed. Eren, Yuu and the others glanced at her funny. Then, Yuu and Kimizuki burst out laughing. Sylver was rather shocked by this reaction but looked straight face at the two guffawing. “Can you imagine someone dong that ridiculous idea?” Yuu asked, still chuckling. Sylver also giggled back, “Yeah, cockamamie.” She agreed. Kimizuki snickered, “Pretty hilarious just thinking about it.” He remarked. Sylver laughed as she walked away shaking her head but once she was out of sight, she managed no one was around and pulled the journal from her coat pocket. It turns out she actually did write about them, she felt her eyes prickling with tears, “Ho ho and ha ha…To laugh it is.” Sylver whispered. At that moment; she felt a hand on her shoulder and turned around to see Briar gives her a sympathetic look and patted her head as she strolled away. Sylver sauntered in the opposite direction slowly while sniffling and wiping her eyes. What she didn’t notice was Rosemary’s sorrowful expression which turned to anger. While she was crying alone; Sylver heard something of a soft plop. She went out and she discovered something in a plastic bag with something and the bag was labeled that reads: “Fairy Powder”. She analyzed it and discovered it was full of hallucinogens. She then had to know who would leave these substances here however she had an idea. Later; Sylver requested that she gives the boys some sort of ‘juice’ to help them with training exercises to mimics the style of chasing her. Alem, Solo, Hange, Levi, Guren and Shinya were hesitant nevertheless they agreed with her suggestion. Afterwards, Lily was having cups of beverage of non-alcoholic drinks; she also sprinkled a dash of unknown substances into the beverages. Sylver smiled to herself with determination but then she looked pretty remorseful. In the present, Lily served everyone their drinks but she stayed at a table by herself. The guys were unaware of what’s in their drinks, however Shinoa noticed Sylver was staring with an intent look in her eyes. Just then; Eren, Armin, Jean, Yuu, Mika, Yoichi, Kimizuki and Narumi suddenly were knocked out. Then, they woke up to see it was night and in some sort of forest area where Sylver stood over them. The boys were confused but then were surprised to hear her tone of voice. “Start running boys, your training begins now!” Sylver commanded. The boys looked up and saw she looked different. Sylver didn’t look so innocent through the hallucinations, she looked mischievous yet insane. Her clothes looked different: She wore a mermaid skirt, a Victorian silk blouse, boots and a silver brooch in the shape of an over-sized perfume bottle style pendant features a quilted design with sparkly crystal detailing and is engraved around the neck. Her eyes changed to a glowing orange-amber color with a wild sinister façade upon her face. She turned and scurry away while laughing like a hyena! But in reality she just turned and run but there was no laughter from her. But surely, that got the guys to go after her after recovering from the terror they experienced. During this time; Eren, Armin, Jean, Yuu, Mika, Yoichi, Kimizuki and Narumi chased Sylver into the forest but the hallucinogenic-laced beverages they had previously caused them to see unrealistic visions.  From their point of view; they could see a creature with beady eyes and tons of sharp tiny little teeth, a giant bloody skull for a head, they saw a woman with also beady eyes, but a jaw like an orangutan, and an alien-esque slit-like mouth. Plus, the expression she's wearing is vague, but can't quite be called a smile. There were crazed dogs will stand guard over your lair as they snarl and open their jaws wide to show frighteningly sharp teeth. A startling glow erupts from their throats and beams from the reds of their eyes as their growls intensify and their bodies shake manically. An eerie scarecrow swing back and forth while giving an evil laugh and speaking creepy sayings. With wasy to hang metal hook and rope system! Bloody hooks and chains are hanging from above, a torso bulging with an assortment of tiny worms under his flesh, and creatures that were mummy-like with dried up husk, rotted, slimy, and worm ridden while chewing a screaming human with a nauseating crunch. Finally, that’s when the boys saw Sylver entering a warehouse building and the boys followed however Briar managed to catch up with them as she tries to help them out! Just as they enter the warehouse; there was giggling sounds. There was also some scampering and something was not right. Then, there was something in the darkness that spoke out. “Drown the evil kids and shoot the creepy neighbors, da boys are here man!” A voice said in a tone of a fake Jamaican accent. Then, another said: “Now, now. No need to be chauvinistic.” But then, there was giggling: “There already here….Oh my friggin’ gosh! THEY’RE HERE!!!!” More ‘hee hee, haha!’ sounds and then the lights turned on while Rosemary exclaimed, “Honey, I’m home!” Pansy echoed saying, “Come on in, y’all!” Emily and the others saw Andrea appeared while wearing a thick sweater and sensible jacket, a fitted Victorian coat paired with a thick cable knit sweater, leather-look leggings and thick boots. But she wasn’t alone for she wore a purple shirt, crimson skirt and purple shoes. The two of them were above from an interior railing balcony on the inside where they are smiling like lunatics! “Welcome to the madhouse, I’m here BITCHES!!! Are you ready to play?” inquired Rosemary with excitement. “Three words: Go. To. Hell.” Briar replied. Rosemary laughed with joy and lunacy. “What are you guys so scared of? Losing one of your friends like the former members of Levi’s deceased group and all the others? The Scouts falling into oblivion of failure? Kureto Hiragi catching up to you? Or would it be the vampire? Mikasa?! NAKED AND COVERED IN BLOOD?!” Rosemary said in the intercom. Jean glared up, “Now I’m mad!” He growled. “She just crossed the line.” Minato claimed. Eren was also angry. “That’s not the first.” Briar retorted. “I CAN’T BELIEVE SHE JUST SAID THAT ABOUT HER!!!” Jean exclaimed. The screen of the motion projector showed Rosemary again. “Poor Jean, so stubborn and doesn’t have a clue. I don’t think your head would fit in the interior! Hahaha!” Rosemary exclaimed with giggling. Jean was upset, he was not happy about this. “You stupid, little…” He claimed but Rosemary interrupted. “Temper, temper. Not all of us are suicidal, my rage boy! You’re all going mad as March hares, you’d expect me to sing you a happy little song?!...Don’t answer that! I would never, not after what we’ve been through.” Yuu turns as he said, “‘We’? Who’s ‘we’? It’s just you.” The others looked up at Rosemary and her sisters with a dirty look. “Don’t be so snappy, Yuu.” Scolded Rosemary. Pansy then said: “Mika definitely had trust issues to boot.” Yuu and Mika glares up at them. Pansy added while glancing down at Kimizuki and remarked in a dramatic loud whisper: “Taller than a telephone pole…HAHAHAHAHA!” She let out a thunderous, maniacal guffaw. “We’ll end your reign now.” Kimizuki declared. Rosemary sneered down at him as she said in an uppity voice, “If you don't mind, I'll make the rules.” Pansy echoed: “Rules indeed! Wa-ha-ha-ha!” She beamed. The boys groaned from the effects of the substances from their liquid cocktails, Rosemary lets out moaning sounds: “Sounds like someone's sick. How lovely. I do hope it's serious. Something dreadful.” She managed to say. Briar looked up, “It was you…did you drugged their drinks?” She asked. Rosemary lets out a laugh, “Who else? I had to teach some naughty boys a lesson.” She admitted. She lean backwards, “Mmm, the blood from humans like these is so scrumptious. It has this thick texture that lingers on the tongue.” Everyone is shocked in horror and Rosemary exclaimed while standing straight down at the other: “Oh, ho! You see? I win, I win! Aren't I hideous, boy? Perfectly revolting?” Briar was silent before responding: “As ugly on the inside.” Rosemary glanced down at her with a maniacal look and her smile slowly contorts her face. “Shoot me again! I enjoy it! I love the horrendous insults, and humiliation, and bullying! I'm schizophrenic! Shoot me, go on! It's your job isn't it?! I'm a mentally impaired girl! Why don't you shoot me? You hate people who are mentally impaired right?!” Briar and the guys are unnerved, yet perplexed until Rosemary lost her mind! Briar stopped her while shouting: “WHY. ARE YOU. DOING THIS?!” Rosemary pointed to Yuu and Kimizuki as she said, “Because they laughed at Lily for what she said, ‘You guys are grand, someone should write a book about you!’ AND YOU LAUGHED AT HER, MADE HER CRY!!!” Briar realized that Rosemary was talking about Sylver. “What?!” Kimizuki said. “We thought she was joking!” Yuu claimed. Rosemary stared at him, “JOKING?! JOKING MY ASS!!!” She screamed while tackling him and shaking him while attempting to choke the living out of him, “APOLOGIZE TO HER AND MEAN IT WITH ALL YOUR HEART & SOUL!!!” Kimizuki rescued Yuu and pushed Rosemary away. In the meantime; Roz then noticed Armin was there as she nearly lost her mind while grinding her weapon ready. “ARMIN! I’M GOING UP TO RYKER AND CHOP HIM TO ITTY BITTY PIECES!!! AND THEN, I’LL GO AFTER MIKASA AND STAB HER IN THE HEART LIKE YOU DID TO SYLVER!!!” Roz screamed. Armin was terrified by this sight as he was running out of fear. “Armin, please! Don’t hurt me, I’m sorry. I’m so sorry, don’t hurt me!” He begged. Angry and overwhelmed in her retaliation; Roz swung her needle-sewn paddle when Roz was taken down from a stranger, who tries to escape! 

Everyone glanced at the stranger with suspicion. “Who are you?” Eren asked. “Just…a good stranger…” The stranger replied timidly. He was about to leave however Yoichi tugged on the stranger’s shoulder and the cloak is pulled out! “Taylor Timmons!” whispered Armin. All were shocked by the sight of him. “Taylor, come. Hurry!” Benjamin exclaimed from their exit away from the Evermore agents and their allies. “It’s Ben, get ‘em!!!” Briar exclaimed. Taylor were shocked to move when Benjamin shouted once more, “RUN TAYLOR, WE MUST ESCAPE!!!” Taylor followed behind as the two of them ran. But then, they were faced with blows of rage as well as angry forces of nature! This caused Benjamin and Taylor to almost go flying however they landed. All of a sudden; the two of them looked up to see Briar pointing a gun at them, “Gotcha, this is checkmate gentlemen.” She stated. Benjamin glared up at her while Jerome looked worried. “Ben, I’d appreciate Taylor and you for saving many lives and yet I don’t understand your obsession with life out of death is about but your experiments to these monsters are…very wrong.” Briar thought. Just then, a voice bellowed: “DON’T! DO IT! BRIAR!!!” Heads turned as they were shocked to see Sylver running! She then steps in between Briar, Benjamin and Taylor. “Sylver, what are you doing?” Briar demanded. “Don’t shoot Brie, they are not the ones you’re after!” Sylver begged. Everyone was getting more excited with confusion, Benjamin was surprised by this as he glanced at Taylor who was so uncertain. Benjamin saw everyone was confused so he slipped out a syringe with a serum inside as he prepared himself! He slipped behind Sylver who was unaware as she was trying to calm Briar down when Benjamin injected the syringe into her skin and Sylver stopped talking as she was knocked out. She fell into the arms of Benjamin, much to everyone’s horror! Benjamin pulled out a small capsule and dropped it down on the ground. “DON’T TAKE HER, BENJAMIN!!!” Briar screamed, running through the puffs of smoke. When the smoke clears; Benjamin and Taylor were gone as well as Sylver! Briar collapses to the ground on her knees, she begins to sob as she exclaimed: “SYLVER!!!!” Meanwhile; Briar was carrying the unconscious Sylver into a room and set her on something that resembled a doctor’s table. He smiled while brushing the hair from her face before leaving, shutting the door behind him. An hour has passed and Sylver woke up as she looked around groggily. “Where am I?” She wondered blearily. Then, slowly; it all came back to her. “Oh my god! He brought me here?” She steadily got off the table and exited the room, Sylver looked around as she was feeling flushed. “Dear Lord.” She thought. She moved around as she discovered Benjamin was by the window looking at the sunset. Taylor was examining some papers but then he looked up and saw Sylver. “Oh, Miss Eden! You’re awake, I’m so happy!” Taylor said, he turned to Benjamin. “Ben, she’s awake!” He reported. Benjamin turned around as he looked over and managed to give a smile at Sylver, who walked up the stairs and approached Benjamin. “Why did you brought me here?” She asked. Benjamin loomed at her, “Well my dear. You seem to know that I am not one who set up the idea of having Infestations all over the town and you know about who owns that facility, do you not?” He asked. Sylver nodded, “Dirge’s grandfather. That sick bastard! How could he?” She said. Benjamin looked pained while he stated, “Dirge is worse than his grandfather and his father in general. They’re all bad enough…So much that no one can stand the likes of them. That’s why you step in, my dear.” Sylver was surprised: “Me?” She squeaked, “Why me?” Benjamin let out a hearty laugh, “Because of the incident with him and believe me I never asked to work with him anyway. I will create his one million strong army but they will only be the ones to destroy anything he created and will never again rise from the ashes.” He pointed out. Sylver nodded with a shrug, “Makes sense. I’ll do anything to help you. I’ll take your offer, I got a score to settle.” She said. It was then Benjamin gave her an over-sized perfume bottle style pendant features a quilted design with sparkly crystal detailing and is engraved around her neck. “Keep this, perhaps this can help you.” Ben whispered. Sylver nodded, “Sure. Thank you!” She said back softly with a grin on her face. In the meantime; Briar was stressing over the fact that Lily was gone and speculating over the fact that Sylver could be tortured by Benjamin and Taylor. Eren saw how tense she was, he put a hand on her shoulder. “I’m sure she’s fine, you know Sylver.” He said softly. Briar was too depressed to be optimistic, “I don’t know, is she? I can’t imagine her being tormented by Benjamin…I…” She said. She put her head in her hands. Eren puts an arm around as Briar turned to him: “It’s going to be OK, we’ll get her back.” He assured her. Briar smile at Eren while she said, “Yeah…” Suddenly fire gets blown at at the Scots which they hide behind anything else they can find to avoid the blue flames and the green yet black colors of light. The firing stops and everyone looks from where they were hiding. An angry Guren and the rest of his squad alongside him--Yuu and his friends too--walk in through the destroyed entrance. Hange Zoe approached the Lieutenant Colonel; calm as she could ever be.  “Honestly Guren, don’t you think I feel bad enough all ready?” Hange said while looking nervous. Guren seizes Hange’s shirt collar angrily, “You maniac! You crazy bitch, how dare you go and try to get us all kill by your plan that you…” He shouted. Hange turned and called out: “EREN! JEAN! HELP ME OUT HERE!” Then, there were blades near Guren. “Let her go, you bastard!” Eren demanded. “Do it or else!” Jean commanded. “IDIOT! KIMIZUKI! TAKE THESE TWO DOWN!” commanded Guren. Just then; Yuu and Kimizuki attacked Eren and Jean “Aah~!!” Eren yelled. “Errgh!” Jean growled. “I’LL TEACH YOU A LESSON FOR TRYING TO THREATEN GUREN!!!” Yuu cried. Shinya steps forward with that smile he has on his face. “Now, now, can’t we settle this like civilized people?” He asked. Guren loosens his grip and releases Hange, who straightens herself.  “Oh? I think you should regret on dealing with ME!!!!” Eren exclaimed. Commotion of a fight was going on as Shinya gestured them to the seats. “Now, let’s converse shall we?” Shinya reassured. The fight is still going on. “WANNA TRY ME ASSHOLE?!” Jean cried. “BRING IT ON!!!” Shiho bellowed. Shinoa smiles smugly, “Don’t fret, we’ll make sure they don’t kill each other.” She teased. Armin looked at her with an astound expression, You’re not worried? Really?” He asked. “No, actually I find it interesting to see. I can see an uncanny resemblance with these two.” She said while stifling a giggle. Back with Guren and Hange, who are ignoring the fight going on. “You got some explaining to do, Commander.” Guren said in a calm tone despite with a glare. “Not everything was going to plan, how did I know that Reiner was there?” Hange replied. Guren looked surprised, “REINER? He was there?!” He said, nearly raising his voice. Hange smiled nervously, “Yes, I’m sorry. I know it was hasty but I do apologize. Next time if this happen, I’ll be sure to give you some closure. It wasn’t smart so no need.” She reassured. Guren looked at her dead in the face, “Damn right it wasn’t smart, if this happens again there won’t be a next time. We’ll all be killed because of you.” He retorted. In the background, those four were still fighting! Yuu was crying out, “Feel the wrath of ASURAMARU!!!!” Eren growled back: I’m not scared of a demon!!!! I’LL SLAUGHTER YOUR DEMON IN HALF!!!” Kimizuki held his sword up while reciting, “ON THE COUNT OF NINE, I’M OPENING THE DEVIL’S COFFIN AND WIPE YOU OUT–KISEKI-O!” He said but Jean stopped him in time, “OH NO YOU DON’T, YOU BASTARD!!!” He cried out. But Briar stopped the fight and told them to end it. Just as the four were about to protest, Briar said in a scary tone: “END IT!” Then calmly she said: “Now.” And they did, much to their terror on provoking her. Shinoa giggled, “Definitely a resemblance all right.” She remarked. “Shut up Shinoa, we don’t need your commentary.” Groaned Connie. 


While walking out; Briar’s cell-phone rings and she answers it: “Hello? Solo, hey. Good to hear from yo—What?! W—w—Wait! What did you say?! Where?!” She demanded. Later; Briar arrived as she saw Rory Leigh in bed of the medical room she’s placed in, bandages on her wrists. Solo told Briar what happened: Rory was in the hospital--she had been attacked and was attempting suicide but she failed when a Good Samaritan stopped her just in time. Briar stared at Rory lying there in the hospital bed, she turned to Solo and said: “Can I talk to her alone?” Solo nodded and leaves to the leaving room. Briar walked into the medical room and looked over at Rory. “Rory…Can you hear me?” Briar inquired softly. Rory didn’t stir so Briar pulled out her backpack and rummaged through it, she then withdraw a transfusion device. Briar made an incision in her arm, she put one side of the transfusion tube in her wound and the other into Rory’s wounds. Rory looked at her in surprise, Briar said something that Silence would never forget: “Rory Leigh…Stephanie Fury…I know why you can’t speak, why you are so afraid and it’s not just your family…It’s the girl you loved…But she was killed by that monster…you resorted to a selective mute, changed your name and hide your indignity. What happened to Heather was not your fault, you did all you could. She accepted you and loved you unconditionally. I’m not doing this to save you; I’m doing this as a way to make you stronger. Live to do the right thing…For yourself. For your family. For Heather. For me, I’m your friend aren’t I?” Rory felt tears streaming down her face. Briar smiled, “I’m not going to force you to speak but you need to find your voice soon in time….One day at a time…For now, get stronger.” She said. Once the transfusion was over; Briar carefully removed the transfusion device and placed the bandages back onto Rory’s wounds. Briar’s incision on her arm has vanished; it has healed herself from the gash. Days later; Rory Leigh was released from the hospital today, she walked out through the sliding doors and into the bright, sunny day. Noticing the bandages around her wrists, Silence removed them as her walking pace went faster. She jogged until she was fully sprinting. A smile slowly spread across her face as she ran and glided up. She looked down to see she was above skyscrapers, shops and lakes. It was an incredible feeling, Rory pumps her legs and balls her hands into fists as she begins to fly around. “I’m Supergirl!” She whispered. She smiled and decides to use her weapon. “Astor, let’s start from the beginning. All you need to focus on the lantern above, OK?” Lola said. Astor nervously, “OK.” She said. Just then, a girl came in and gave Rayna a card while saying, “Lord Chris.” She walked off as a teen boy name Chris strolled in. “Sorry for barging in like this but I only come here for Lady Astor.” Chris said in his snooty English accent. Kaede leaned over and whispered to Rayna, “Do you know him?” She looked at her with confusion. Rayna shrugged, “I don’t know, hey Judy? Can we have a seat for Chris please?” Chris sat down back, “Carry on.” He assured. And so, Astor tries to put her flames into a lantern however she missed and caused an accident. Just then, there was a splash of cold water. It turned out to be Chris that put out the fire and smirked at everyone. Astor felt bad and ran out, soon Chris followed. Chris found Astor on the bench, crying so he came to comfort her. “It’s all my fault!” Astor wailed. “Stop it.” Chris said sternly. “Don’t even, I lost control!” insisted Astor through her tears. “You don’t know that. It was never your fault, Asta.” Chris said with sparkles in his eyes. Astor leaned against him, “Oh Milan…” She said in a choked up voice. Chris put an arm around her, “It’s OK, Astor. I’m here.” He said. Afterwards; Chris and Astor were walking when they are attacked by Infestations attacking however they are rescued as well as Emily and the other children. It was Rory Leigh, who had her hand out to them. “Come with me, I’ll help you guys out.” Rory asked. Emily stared at her suspiciously, “How can we trust you?” She asked. Rory stared at her and said, “I don’t have time for this, do what you want—I couldn’t care less. If you trust me or not. I’m here to save you all.” Emily knew this girl was harmless as she and the other children followed her. Rory saw Justine, Dawson and Roscoe as she came to the trio’s aid along with Emily and the others. “Justine, do you need any help?” Rory asked timidly. Justine was speechless and nodded. During this time; Roscoe could see the children are shaken with fear, he smirks. “Pussies.” He said. Rory’s eyes were fierce as she glared at him, “I’ll kick your ass. I’m not afraid to do so.” She warned. “Like hell I’m scared of you!” Roscoe mocked. Rory kicked Roscoe into a wall and got close to him, “The next time you cuss at me, I’ll sew that filthy, arrogant mouth to an un-wiped, dirty ass! Do you understand me?” She said coldly. Roscoe was stunned, “…Yes.” He said. And Rory continues on with others following behind.
