Chapter 8
“Unbelievable! So, I go and take a nap. And what happens? You wake me the hell up!” Ban exclaimed. Chloe rolled her eyes, “How many times do I have to say ‘I’m sorry’?” She snapped. “Tell me again why are we doing this?” Maggie asked. “Katrina called me and specially said, ‘I want Ban’s spooked ass here now’.” Chloe said. “Ha, ‘Spooked Ass’. That’s funny!” Ban laughed. “Spooked Ass, that would suit you greatly.” King said smugly. As they were making their way through the path; they could see Abominations were enclosed on a group of people. Chloe squinted her eyes as she could see that it was Katrina! She widened her eyes, “Katrina!” She gasped. The Abominations took noticed of Maggie as they grinned vigorously, “Well, well…If it isn’t the Blood Splatter Dancer, well you cheap hussy why don’t you get your get your groupie ass over here hot stuff?” One of the Abominations taunted. Maggie smirked devilishly, “Gladly!” She purred, whirling her harpoon like pole. The Abominations charged at her like a bunch of football players however Maggie dodged them. She entwined her arms behind her and around the pole harpoon. “Hey Ban boy, you wanna do this?” Maggie called. “Do what?” Ban asked nervously but trying to sound cool about it. “Take on the Abominations, they’re gonna get an assault from a friendly weapon and you and we could do the bam bam in the ham!” Maggie said. “MARGARET WOLFE!!!” Chloe exclaimed. “What?!” Maggie demanded. “Control your hormones!” Chloe said. “No, no. That’s why I was saying…That Ban’s a sexy pancake!” Maggie purred, winking at Ban and laughed at his shocked reaction. Chloe looked at Maggie, “REALLY?!” She demanded. Ban is scared, “Mags, get away from me!” He exclaimed. “I’m trying to get away from her too!” King claimed. “No, you both get away from me!” Ban cried, laughing. The Abominations charged at them but Maggie and Ban annihilate them while Chloe and King did the same. “Woo wee! That was hot!” Maggie laughed. “Nah, I thought Chloe was hot. I think she’s got something in her.” Ban joked, pretending to creep behind her. “Augh! Ban, get away!” Chloe yelped, running away. “Come ‘ere! Come ‘ere!” Ban exclaimed, pulled Chloe in and whirled her around in his embrace as Chloe laughed while saying: “No, get away from me!” However; they were interrupted by a voice that was screaming and there was a lot of banging noises. Katrina signals for Chloe, Maggie, King and Ban to follow and stay hidden as Sylver beat up the leader. “Who were those two boys that were bound and gagged? What are their names?” Sylver demanded. Warren sneered, “Like hell I would remember!” He retorted. “WRONG ANSWER!!!” Sylver exclaimed, she tilted Warren on the ground as he hit the side of his head. “I’m gonna ask you again, what were the names of the boys that were bound and gag? GIMME THEIR NAMES!!! NOW!!!!” Sylver shrieked. Then, she heard movement and whirled around, “WHO DARES INFILITRATED ON MY LAND?!” She hits her reliquary against the throne while screaming: “GET UP YOU ASS! GET UP, I SAY!!!” Chloe held her hands up, “Hey take it easy Eden!” She claimed. Sylver’s attitude softened, “Chloe? Kat? Maggie? Is that you?” She said softly. “Oh, so now she notices.” King remarked. Sylver linked her arms around Ban and King’s shoulders happily, “BAN! KING!” She chirped. She whirled them around while dancing on her dainty feet. "Sylver." Ban said in a strained voice. "Hello!" Sylver said, oblivious. "Sylver!" exclaimed King. "Hello!" Sylver squealed. "SYLVER!" Ban and King hollered. "Hello!" Sylver chirped. Ban took Sylver by the back of collar, "We're bringing you out of here." He said. Sylver gives him a look, "But I have a score to settle. I have gone crazy." She said calmly. King pulled her up, "So be sane." He said. Sylver pushed him away, "I can't do it! My mission must be completed!" She said while scrambling away. "So what?" Ban said. Sylver pounced on Warren, then stood up and grinned: “My friends, I am not going to stop until I get my revenge on the world…No, wait. 49 percent of it. And if I end up with blood on my hands and God help me that you’ll understand. Why?” Sylver said. She paused a little and then leaned in while shrieking, “…’Cause I FIGHT LIKE A GIRL BITCHES!!!” Warren looked up at her, “You’re insane!” He declared. Sylver put her foot on his head, “Ah ah, I’m talking to my homies here so hush-hush.” She scolded at him like a child. “Why would you wait?” A voice said. Negative Sylver appeared, “Why don’t you finish him off already?” She said, holding a knife as she said: “I bet rubbing weenies against knives is fun!” Sylver gasped in horror, she grits her teeth but Ban was faster and pounced her but Negative Sylver laughed as she sprayed a burning chemical on his skin. He cried out in pain but luckily he could heal fast! Negative Syler took Sylver by her throat while hissing, “Gotta go! Girl talk…Bye!” She dragged her away into a dark mansion but Katrina, Akito, Leila, Ryo, Yukiya and Ayano followed. No sooner that happened; Chloe, Maggie, Ban and King followed as they hid behind a drawer almost near the wall as they peeked out to see Katrina, Akito and Ryo were there. The trio felt themselves was bound by a telekinetic force around them. “What is this? What are you doing to us?” Katrina demanded in a scared tone. Negative Sylver explains to the three captives: “You will see the purpose of my revenge…You will know fear, pain and agony like the bastards you are!!!” Katrina screamed, her powers caused the trio to react to psychic torment and they were shouting in agony as well as begging for mercy. During this process, Negative Sylver are successful for breaking the minds of Katrina, Akito and Ryo. Thus, they are taking control. Katrina, Akito and Ryo's minds are assaulted with painful, horrifying visions, and their will broken. Katrina, Akito and Ryo were screaming from the painful memories inside their heads. Negative Sylver giggled at their suffering while she watched them writhed. Chloe put her hands over her ears while looking stress, “This is not happening, this is not happening!” She said. “This happened before?” King asked. “During the Fury fiasco, yes.” Chloe elucidated. “So it’s déjà-vu for ya?” Ban inquired. Maggie nodded, “Aye.” She replied grimly. Negative Sylver was tilting her head to the side while singing and her hands going down her thighs. She hits herself against the wall in ecstasy while she tortures Katrina, Akito and Ryo with images of herself pleasuring herself and the people she is torturing. However; Negative Sylver begins to suffer pain in her mind. She felt her mind being torn apart and she screamed in terror. Chloe, Maggie, Ban and King grinned with amazed looks on their faces. “Yes!” Chloe cheered. “What a miracle!” Maggie whispered. Negative Sylver angrily slams the ground with her fist, "Why, that little savage--!!" She looks amazed for a second, and Sylver jumps and punches her fist into the air, "Yes!" She exclaimed. Sylver has a net that she throws it at her doppelganger. "No! It’s your turn!" She cried. Negative Sylver begins to struggle and thrash around in the net, but Sylver has a firm grip on it, and begins to try to haul her over her shoulder. Negative Sylver has lost her grip while she is thrashing more wildly than before. "Let me go!" She cried in a pleading voice. "I don’t think so!" growled Sylver. Negative Sylver struggled before clawing at Sylver who lets go and fell backwards. “You stupid little girl…You think you could overpower me? Ha! I’ll show you…” She growled. Sylver was scared, she scrambled backwards on the ground as her doppelganger advanced towards her when all of a sudden a sultry hissing female voice startled everyone: “DID I NOT INSTRUCT THAT BOX FIVE WAS TO BE KEPT EMPTY?!” Katrina, Akito, Leila, Ryo, Yukiya and Ayano were shocked. Ganymede caught his breath, he exhales shakily. Chloe, Ban, Maggie and King were surprised as well as everyone else. “She’s here! Rosemary Fury!” Katrina gasped. “It’s her!” Chloe stammered. “Oh shit!” Maggie groaned. At that moment; Rosemary appeared in a close-fitting black dress that has a high collar, buttons up the front, and flows outward in a full, pleated skirt. She wore heeled silver heeled ballet flats. Rosemary has her hair in a high bun with a hairpin holding it up. “YOU DARE DO THIS TO THEM!!! YOU LITTLE BITCH!!!” Rosemary bellowed. Negative Sylver grinned tightly, “YOU DID THAT TOO!!!” She clarified. “I’VE CHANGED, I FEEL GUILTY SO SHUT THE HELL UP!!!” Rosemary declared. Negative Sylver snickered, “Ah, this sounds familiar doesn’t it? No? Let me enlighten you.” She said. Negative Sylver let out a deep sigh and then said: “Do you know the meaning of obsession? No? OK, let’s start! Obsession: Something that takes over your mind, then your life revolves around that certain and most import thing that gets to be that sort of addiction. You may wonder if my life was a sham, no it was not. But full of pain? Oh yes indeed. No pun intended. What matters to me are that I’m in desperate need for live and affection. Something I longed for, so empty and yet I’m feeling very selfish. I don’t really care how people feel towards me. You see, I want something to fill that void. All was just average but this extraordinary change can be intimidating and nauseating with all that gore of the remorseless. I mean, buckets of blood, it can be so friggin’ tedious so what we need is something to fill that emptiness. It’s such a comfort to know there is so much more to this passive life. Don’t you see? You are the whole world to me. I want you so badly to put my names on my ‘toys’ that need our most undying protection! All I want is for you to love each and every one of us from minute to minute…I can treat you the way I want to, not the pretend way but whatever you do don’t think too much! I am unable to control the thoughts of myself. I never wanted to be addicted to you people but happens and I want your undivided attention. I don’t want to be ‘in love’, if you prefer to call it that, nevertheless there is some sort of charm. A precious gem glowing that’ll hurt anyone’s eye from the beauty of it all. I don’t know but I can see it in your eyes. Your thoughts. Everything about what you are today.” Negative Sylver continued, “Maybe it was a cruel act of savagery. My point is…” Behind Rosemary, Negative Sylver held a knife and stabbed her in the back and Rosemary fell on the ground. “…This whole world can make someone like me go insane.” She continued to beat Rosemary as she proceed to talk, “You don’t know the cruelty of life or why people become cynical by all this…I mean do you ever think about 49% of the population of its people that were injured and three were killed when two bombs went off near the finish line at an annual running marathon? Underneath our image of social cohesion – we’re ‘savages’, barely even human at times – that are capable of horrific actions. We attempt to differ ourselves from the animal kingdom with social customs, clothing, but these are just facades .Underneath all the social rules and customs we’ve created, underneath the rational brain and civilizations, we’re no different from the other animals guided purely by instinct, the 'savages'…After all that, I need to know one original thing, HOW COME YOU HAVEN’T LOST YOUR MIND?! WHY HAVEN’T YOU SNAPPED?!” Negative Sylver raised her foot up to stomp on Rosemary but unfortunate, Rosemary caught her foot and threw her backwards. “Because I snapped once and let me tell you, it wasn’t fun…At all.” Rosemary declared. Negative Sylver tries to assault Rosemary again but Rosemary uses her powers. “I want you and brought back to Sylver Eden. And that’s I’m here—to take you down. Here’s something you to know, since what you did to Sylver’s mind; she’s one of the most logic people I’ve known. Not everyone snaps all the time…Maybe…You’re wrong.” Rosemary said. Negative Syler grits her teeth, “You brought him here didn’t you?” She hissed. Negative Sylver smiles tightly and glances up, “Yoo hoo! Le-louch, I know you’re up there somewhere…” She called. Just then, there was a voice that called out: “Past~! The point of no return!” Ganymede watched in nervous anticipation as Rosemary felt the corners of her mouth turning with excitement. Negative Sylver turned as she saw Lelouch in the center as he wasn’t alone. There was the smug but solemn Suzaku. Ryo, Yukiya and Akito stood alongside him. “So the demon unveils thyself.” Negative Sylver said. Lelouch laughed, “Bravo, Madcap Beauty, such spirited words!” He exclaimed. Negative Sylver whirled around as the others hid in the distance and called out, “More tricks, you devil?” She retorted. “Let's see, madam, how far you dare go!” Lelouch barked. Suzaku and the other guys uses their guns at Negative Sylver, who dodges them, “More deception? More violence?” She hollered. “That's right, that's right, Madcap Beauty! Keep walking this way!” Lelouch taunted. “You can't win by making me wield to your control!” Negative Sylver exclaimed. Lelouch laughs excitedly, “I'm here, I'm here, Negative Sylver: the Demon of Revenge!” He taunted, “Come on, come on, darling! Don't stop, don't stop!” Angry; Negative Sylver called out, “Stop this now!” She managed to escape. Ganymede came out of the shadows, much to everyone’s surprise, as he questions Lelouch’s motives. Lelouch just simply retorts, “I am to uphold my own ideals.” He turns but Ganymede approaches him. “Surely you have a sense of justice!” Ganymede called out. “Enough Henshaw, I’VE HAD IT!!” Lelouch exclaimed. He pushed Ganymede to the wall, Rosemary reacted by hurrying over but Suzaku stopped her. Just then, Suzaku glanced over and saw that Chloe, Maggie, Ban and King with their powers and weapons poised at him. Briar stepped forward, “All right, everyone? Let’s all calm down here. No need for violence!” She said. Rosemary begged while straining in Suzaku’s grasp, “Let him go, Your Majesty.” Lelouch turned to her, “Shut it, Fury. I have something to say to your ‘boy toy’.” He said. Then turns to Ganymede and said: “Ganymede Henshaw, look at me.” Ganymede didn’t look up. “You gonna hypnotize me?” He retorted. Lelouch was gracious, his slender hand on Ganymede’s cheek and Ganymede looked up. “Not at all, I won’t use my Geass. I do want to ask you, what is your relationship with Rosemary? Is she using you? She had done this before. She had used Sylver Eden, tortured Briar Devlin and her friends, and nearly caused the rest of us to go mad. Why do care for her so much?” Lelouch inquired. Ganymede looks confused, he didn’t know what to say at first. “She’s not what you say she is…I mean, she never told me about what she is. I believe she must have feelings for me…I don’t…” He explained. Lelouch couldn’t help it, he begins to laugh as it echoes. The laugh of his was enough for Maggie to take Ban and King’s collars as they stepped backwards. Chloe is stunned, she couldn’t move a muscle. Katrina and the Wyvern Squad are shaken. Rosemary grinned maniacally. Briar and Suzaku equally stood calm. Once he calmed down, Lelouch releases him and grins at him. “Well, Ganymede. Keep on hoping for the best. Your optimism is all we’re going to need.” He said. With that; he turned and trot away with Suzaku after him. Briar sighed, she gave him a wave and followed the boys.
Afterwards; Debbie Hope is hurrying across. Ganymede sees her and calls after her. “Miss Hope. Wait!” Debbie didn’t stop as she said, “Please, Ganymede, I know no more than anyone else.” Ganymede even his pace with hers, “That's not true!” He said. Debbie was uneasy. “Ganymede, don't ask. There have been too many incidents to count.” She tried to explain. “This happened before?!” Ganymede demanded. Debbie moves off again. He stops her. “Please, Debbie, for argument sake…” Ganymede begged. Debbie has glanced nervously around her and suddenly deciding to trust him. “Very well.” She said. She leads him and showed him the MPD. Then, Debbie plays the memories on the MPD and Ganymede watched and boy he couldn’t believe it: There was a crash sound, startling the other soldiers. They heard a young girl giggling maniacally. The soldiers were frozen in terror and looked around frantically. “Well, Well. It’s the squad that thought they killed us but lo and behold, we are alive!” A voice said that sounded sweet yet malicious. “Wha—how is this possible?” One of the soldiers starts to say. Another said with a nervous laugh, “Oh c’mon! This isn’t real! It’s just a joke—A cruel and sick prank.” The figure of the girl responds, “A prank you say? This isn’t a joke, this is!” Just then, some sort of telekinetic force caused all the soldiers to die in unimaginable ways. Briar, Yuu, and their friends were shocked by the horrific sight. One was thrown back into a wall; he was impaled by his own weapon. Another was having a knife poised between his teeth, the knife carved a mouth to ear wound before the poor guy was burnt alive! There was the girl’s maniacal giggling as more soldiers died. One was pushed into the water of the room and drowned. The fourth soldier was convulsing so much that he had to end his life. The fifth was suffering the torture of his organs removed and replaced. Then, he got stabbed in the heart. Briar couldn’t believe this was happening, she watched the sixth soldier had a breakdown and pulled out a needle as he smiled maniacally, he looked as deteriorated as he stabbed himself in the back with the needle. He commits hara-kiri, the seventh and the last one stared at the dark figure. She looked up while stammering: “Oh--! W—Who—are you? What the hell are you?” The girl’s tone of voice became menacing, “Who am I? Am I God? The Devil? No, I am vengeance. I am salvation. I am the Reaper, your time is up!” The soldier tries to flee however she tripped. The girl laughs as she remarked, “Aww! Had a nice trip? You had a great big fall, well I guess you can’t get up.” Not sooner she said that, the female soldier’s bones broke. She saw the young teenager girl standing over; the female soldier was so scared. “I’m ashamed of you, trying to escape your death? Sorry, you can’t fight fate.” The girl said, she was wielding a butcher knife. The female soldier was begging for mercy, “Please, have pity! I wish to live! Have some compassion.” She said. The girl was delirious where she exclaims, “You want me to show you some compassion?! HA! The world showed no compassion to ME! Or my sisters! OR MOTHER!!!!” The girl plunged the knife into the soldier’s left eye. The soldier screamed, she suffered of blood loss and died. Briar and the others were sickened by the sight, but the girl noticed them—she smiled wickedly and laughed manically while saying, “Well, well, if it isn’t the Shinoa Squad.” Rosemary tilted her head to the side as she had a crazed look in her eyes. “You’re that girl!” Yuu gasped. “Hello Yuuchiro Hyakuya.” Rosemary greeted. “No, it’s you!” Shinoa gasped, pointing to her. Rosemary slowly smiled, “Yes…It’s me.” She confirmed. She giggled to herself, “I was the one that had been watching you all this time.” Rosemary replied in a creepy monotone voice. Shinoa was trembling in in terror. “It is you. I don’t believe it.” She managed to say. Rosemary cocked her head from side to side. “Yes…You all interest me.” She looked around and she then said, “I promise I won’t chew on your bones…I promise I won’t. But when you all die, I want to keep you in glass jars forever and ever…And ever…So start running, kiddies.” Briar and the others managed to get back to the military base as they never forgot what happened to them. As Briar, Yuu, his friends, and Briar’s friends were asleep in the hours of darkness; Briar was awake as she couldn’t get to sleep. But while she watched the others slept, Briar was shocked to see a woman with flowers in her hair and a tattered gown that flowed down her ankles. Her bony-thin hands cascaded in Yuu’s hair in a maternal affection, she did the same towards Kimizuki—it was Ophelia. Briar’s eyes widened and bulged in horror, she wanted to scream but couldn’t for she was so frighten. Rue and Collie ogled at Yoichi as they used their fingers to trace the sides of their faces. Pansy petted his head, cradling him as he slept. “So young, so sweet and innocent…” She muttered softly. And Rosemary just stared at Shinoa, she has a glance of perverse evil on her face. Briar was frozen with fear, she couldn’t let them get to close. So she reached over to Yuu and gently cut a wound in his hand. Blood oozed out but he didn’t stir so Briar dipped her finger into his blood and took a taste where she managed to absorb his power. She used the Cursed Gear and managed to take down Ophelia and her daughters with swift motions as well as trying her best not to wake anyone. But Ophelia was angry that Briar was interfering and was whispering: “They’re mine….All mine…!” Briar smirked, “Like hell.” She declared. She took down the four daughters who were thrown out and Briar kicked Ophelia, who let out a heartbreaking yowl: “WHHHHYYYYYYYY?!” At that instant; Briar managed to get back to her position to sleep before the others woke up; they heard a wail that roused them from their slumber. Randi, Marina, Maggie, and Lola woke up, they were completely spooked. Guren and his squad came in as everyone checked on Briar, but she was sound asleep. This surprised everyone though they were relieved to know she was all right. However, Shinoa was the only noticed fiery feathers from the back of her skin and saw them quivered. Briar pretended to be asleep, she smiled to herself! But also, she was glad that everyone was safe. However she fell asleep as soon as she closed her eyes. Meanwhile; Solo, Guren and his squad were having a meeting with the ruthless, cold hearted leader name Kureto Hiragi who rebukes them of ‘trouble’ within the shadows of the broken city. At that moment that he was talking; the MPD turned on as the image of Yuu went into another room to see something from on the other side of glass of two boys who were really Yoichi and Kimizuki being bound, gagged, and seated in chairs while their legs were shackled. The cruel looking, stoic Kureto gives instructions through an intercom, and stabbing is shown. Later, someone gives the order to release the boys. Guren, his squad, and everyone else were shocked by the sight as they wondered who would videotape this. No one remembered putting on the cameras! And Sylver, who was in the room, was having a nervous breakdown until Solo helps her out of the room. Just then; Rosemary entered the room as her presence caused a stir and dread to the others. Guren and his squad members stiffened by the sight of her. Kureto and Aoi were calmed down but despite this Kureto were shaken a little at the fear of this creepy young girl. He glared at Rosemary who looked around the room, “My, oh my. What a nifty place you have here, my good man.” She replied. “Who are you?” Kureto demanded with a stern gaze. Rosemary turned to face Kureto and glare at him, “You adversary…But, I am no demon.” She remarked. She approaches Kureto, who fires at her. However Rosemary is still alive as she laughs and gives her hair a toss back. Kureto, moving backwards, is angry by this. Rosemary gives Kureto a swinging roundhouse punch to the jaw, that sends him sliding over a table, to the floor and Andrea stood over him. Rosemary held up daggers, showing them with Edom. “Know where I got these? From your guards. Remember? The time you got ‘em to torture poor Yoichi and Kimizuki. You are disgraceful to the human race; you will burn for what you’ve done.” She said. She took the first dagger in her hand and impaled it into Kureto’s shoulder. Kureto grimaced while Rosemary said, “That was for torturing your sister Shinoa, treating her like the black sheep.” The second dagger went into Kureto’s right shoulder, Kureto contorted in pain. “That’s for killing Shinoa’s sister—her beautiful, cunning sister Mahiru. And for severely beating Guren Ichinose.” Continued the vengeful Rosemary. She took out a third and impaled Kureto’s left knee. “That was for Kimizuki, how you sting him.” The fourth dagger plunged into Kureto’s right knee, making him feel the pain. “You—How dare you! Just you wait, see what happens! I won’t forget you, I’ll find you!” He said. Rosemary said, “And that was for Yoichi, you thought he barely felt that? Hell, that pain took so much effect and work for him not to forget.” And the grand finale, Rosemary raised the last dagger as she said: “And after I impale your heart, you’ll never see me again.” Her voice was cold and harsh. Meanwhile; Briar saw all of this and she screamed, “DON’T DO IT, YOU BITCH!!!” The Shinoa Squad glances at her in concern and confusion, Briar’s friends looked on with anxiousness and want to know what was going on in the visions that Briar was having but had to keep their mouths shut. Earlier, Briar was not supposed to reveal her powers. Not yet, not until they recruit these young soldiers. Meanwhile, Rosemary is about to strike when someone stopped her. “Don’t do it, Rosemary” Guren called out. Rosemary look at Guren, “You dare intervene? I will not cease see this man after all the hell he put you all through. You think I cannot end his monarchy of his callous, severe tyranny and let him do as he pleases? You are screwed up in the head!” But Pansy then said, “He has a point, sister. Perhaps we shall see who might be the one to impale his cold and unfeeling heart, gouging it out in his hands. Sure, we could’ve done it ourselves but let the professionals handle it. One day, Kureto Hiragi will no longer be a threat.” She stated while the others were visibly shaken at her words except Guren. Rosemary place the dagger away and she looked down at Kureto, “I’ll let you go for now but the next time we meet. I won’t be so merciful. I won’t rest until I see your pitiless being resort into a pile of blood and guts. Perhaps I’ll drink your blood and eat your guts while chewing your bones of your soon to be corpse.” With that she turned and disappeared. Guren felt himself was shaken from the ordeal but the thought of Rosemary predicting something like this was something out of the question. In the meantime; Kimizuki’s little sister, Mirai, was being held in a room, she was now part of an organization as their new weapon. Just then; Mirai could hear a voice that speaks out: “Such unmannerly savages--look at how they relish you like you’re their property. Mindless ingrates! How they use you, pull your strings for a thrill. Allocating in this life.” Mirai looked around as she responds, “Who’s there? Can you save me? I don’t think it’s possible to leave, I am a prisoner here.” The voice said to Mirai, “My dear…Sweet…Lovely child, you shall be free. Look in front of you, I am there before you.” So Mirai looked and saw a figure before her. She heard the voice said in a very compelling tone and was hypnotized by these words: “I am your Angel of Music, come to me Angel of Music.” The voice said over and over, the guards heard a voice and saw Mirai in a trance as she walks to an unseen figure. They decide to report to commander while the others try to stop Mirai. It was too late; the hypnotized Mirai was now kidnapped by Rosemary and her sisters. The guards could’ve sworn they saw a tattered white gown, a flower crown, and barefooted. “Come my ‘daughter’, I will take you into a world of enchantment and shadows. Fear not, I will keep you safe from who these people are.” She said. She gingerly took Mirai’s hand and vanished. Mirai gripped onto the hand of Ophelia as she, Rosemary, Pansy, Rue, and Collie lead her to subterranean area. They helped Mirai into a gondola. Mirai sat there while Ophelia rowed the gondola with an oar. Rosemary and her sisters sang and dance. The four sisters were in a small circle, fingers entwined and singing: “Ahhhh, Oooooh, Lalalalala…..” Mirai was feeling sleepy, her eyelids felt heavy and darkness enveloped. Mirai was carried to a canopy bed by Ophelia, who tucked the sleeping Mirai into my garden of magic.” Ophelia whispered to her. Mirai fell asleep when all of a sudden, she was surprised to see other children playing and laughing. Mirai looked around while she rises and approaches Ophelia who does not see her. As she reaches for her, Ophelia turns, almost catching her. She finally succeeds in tearing the mask from his face. Ophelia springs up and rounds on her furiously. She clearly sees her face. The other children does not, as she is standing in profile and in shadow. Mirai looked back with a guilty expression, she gave an apologetic look. Ophelia glance at her, her face softened and she reached over as she embraced Mirai. She tells her, “Go join the children, I’ll let you know what we will do today OK sweetie?” Mirai nodded, she went away. Ophelia watched her, she smiled and said: “Can you hear my voice? The children are safe.” For the moment; Briar and the others were still walking about when all of a sudden, the intercom squawked for a moment before Rosemary’s giggle is heard! Briar, Yuu, and the others frozen in their tracks by that laugh. That’s when Rosemary spoke, “Attention to all savages, we have a Code Red. So you see, we have a little sweet girl here that is with us. She’s part of—No. Not anymore, she’s rescued by our sanctuary. And now? Well, she couldn’t be happier.” She then said, “My dear? Would you come over here?” There was shuffling until Rosemary spoke again: “Dearest, would you mind telling the world your name my cutie pie?” There was a short pause when a young girl’s voice ringed out, “Kimizuki…Mirai Kimizuki.” Kimizuki looked shocked; he quivered in anger and broke down. “No….NO! NO! NO! NO! NO!” Lola put her arms around him to calm him down. Kimizuki was enraged, “That witch, she has my sister! I can’t believe this! I’m going to kill her, I swear!” He exclaimed. “I know, but don’t worry—We’ll find Mirai and we’ll get her back. I promise.” Lola said. Kimizuki trembled a bit but he felt someone beside him, he looked up to see it was Yuu. He had a determined look, “That Rosemary girl won’t get away with this. Don’t give up, all right?” He said. Kimizuki glanced at him, he calm down. However, Andrea added: “Oh, I almost forgot. All you Infestations out there, we have some ‘appetizers’ waiting around the bend. No, not appetizers…The main course!” Briar has a look of dread on her face, “Oh no.” She uttered. Rosemary continued: “Their names are Yuu and Mika Hyakuya, Shinoa Hiragi, Mitsuba Sangu, Yoichi Saotome, and Shiho Kimizuki. They are seen amongst some lovely ladies—Briar and her friends. Hey Brie, you and your bosom buddies keep your teenagers safe!” But then she let out a dramatic gasp, “Oh wait. You already will, have fun.” Briar and the gang were shocked as Rosemary ended the intercom announcement. “She can’t be serious.” claimed Briar. As soon as Rosemary said that, the Infestation—who were under the mind control—attacked Briar, Yuu and the others who managed to fight them off as well as escaped in time. In the meantime; Sylver got her belongings and is about to exit until the driver of the vehicle stops her, “Miss…Listen, I don’t know you nor your past and I have no right to judge any of you for your actions. But at least take my word of advice—be careful around here.” He said. Sylver could stare him confused. She managed to say: “I’ll try thanks.” She closed the door and she was on her way. The driver sped away and was gone. Upon entering the building, Sylver found the interior of the establishment to be much more impressive than they looked. In addition to the establishment; there are apartments, skyscrapers, and other buildings. This place was truly a maze for a new corner and the written assignment she was given, which was barely made by hand, wasn’t much help. Sylver sighed, “What a pain.” She muttered. Just then; Sylver found someone, she wasn’t sure who they were but she called out to them: “Um, excuse me? You there, can you help me with something?” The figure turned, Sylver was lucky to get this guy’s attention as she saw him staring at her puzzled. The guy responded, “Yes?” Briar showed him the map, “Could you tell me where I can find someone by the name of Nar--umi?” She inquired. The guy seems to know, “I think you’re looking him.” He asked. Briar was relieved for having to have asked the right person which will save her and her friends from wasting unnecessarily time. Another guy asked, “You’re heading to find Shinoa and the others? Seriously? Wait, you’re one of the girls must be the ones that Guren mentioned. He called them the ‘Psychos’.” Sylver’s lips curled into a smile, “Guren told you about crazy girls like us, huh.” She said sneakily. The guy just smirked, “Sure did. He was saying how you ladies were the ‘good kind of Psychos’.” He replied. This guy introduced himself as Makoto Narumi. “Well, Na—ru—mi, as your comrade I’m going to help you take down any enemies if I have to.” Sylver stated. Narumi stared out in terror. “You’re crazy!” He exclaimed. “Can you handle it?” Sylver’s ears perked, “Can I? Sure can cowboy. Me like your loco-motion.” She said. Narumi just looked at her in disbelief. Sylver looks away however she looked up but almost gasps. She saw an image of a figure with a woman in a long dress, flowers in her hair and no shoes on her feet. Sylver was then lured away from Narumi when he wasn’t looking as she found herself in a trance but broke free and was lost however she managed to get back where she and Narumi were. By the time she got back, Sylver found that Narumi was nowhere in sight! “Where were you?” A voice snapped. Sylver gasped; she jumped and whirled around to see Narumi’s scowl. Sylver managed to say, “Oh, um, just a walk really. Sorry lost track of time.” Narumi let out an ‘hmph’ and replied in an aloof tone, “Figures someone like you would.” That made Sylver upset by that statement and she was not going tolerate anything by this guy. “What do you mean by that?” Sylver demanded. “Hey, I didn’t mean it like that.” Narumi dissented. “Don’t you even; you don’t know me, I am not lazy!” Sylver exclaimed. “Ugh, that’s not…” Narumi was about to say but Sylver interrupts with anger. “Oh me? What do you think I am? You think I’m slacking? I’m not following up to responsibilities? You think I’m fooling around? I don’t take this whole thing seriously? I don’t know what went on in your life, your measly speck of life but here me when I say I do understand the danger of situations because I’ve been there! I know what tragedy is! I know there are creeps who go and cut up bodies, torture children and all the other shit… I…” Sylver then broke down weeping. She covered her face, “I’m sorry; I didn’t mean to say your life was a measly speck. The only life that’s a measly speck is mine!” She managed to say. Narumi felt bad, he sighed and said: “No, it ain’t.” But Sylver wasn’t buying it, “Come on, admit it! I can’t bare myself to be a burden. Oh god...” She replied and wiped her face. “Relax, Sylver. It’ll be fine. You don’t need to be scared.” Narumi assured her. “Scared? Me? I’m not scared; I’m haunted by ‘ghosts’ of the past.” Sylver claimed. She and Narumi are startled to see a body of a soldier dropped to the ground. He was murdered brutally. Narumi was shocked by the stabbing wounds that reminded him of how his squad was taken out! Scared; Sylver was screaming, “SEE, THAT WAS HER!!! IT WAS HER!!! IT WAS HER, SHE DID THAT!!! OPHELIA FURY DID THAT!!!” She continued to chant that as Narumi try to calm her down but the screaming drones on to become an irritation. In his frustration; Narumi shook her while he exclaimed, “Why can’t you be normal? There is no Ophelia Fury!” Sylver turned around, her eyes widened. “GET AWAY!!!” She screamed. Narumi looked around. “GET AWAY!!!” Sylver yelled again. “Sylver?” Narumi asked. “Sylver, stop this!” Sylver panicked, her heart pounding. “Narumi! Help me!” Sylver cried. She turned back to where she was looking at, “NO, YOU LEAVE HIM ALONE YOU HARPY!!!! LEAVE HIM ALONE, GO AWAY!!!” She let out a blood curdling scream before she fell to the ground into frenzied convulsions. Foam at the mouth, her lips is bleeding. Narumi grabbed Sylver and gently shook her. “Sylver? Sylver, answer me! What’s wrong?” He exclaimed. Sylver went into a state of frenzy and Narumi managed to get her help. When Sylver recovered, she and Narumi continued on ahead without being noticed. That’s when they came across an abandoned building with a movie cinema where Sylver and Narumi looked up at a screen of the memories of Yoichi and Kimizuki being tortured while bound and gagged being played out over and over again. Narumi gritted his teeth. “See? There! That’s it! THAT’S IT!!! Sylver exclaimed, she let out a feverish scream, her arms flailing and she couldn’t get the images out of her head. Narumi try to calm Sylver down when she listened to a dark, monotone voice: “Oh Serge….Narumi… Na—ru--mi!” Sylver is shocked to recognize that voice—Rosemary! Once Sylver calmed down and the screen darkened where she gasped and fainted. When she awoke; Sylver stood on the ledge and balanced herself carefully. Narumi try to calm her down but Sylver called out: “Can’t you see? You can’t get rid of Ophelia Fury!!!” As soon as she said that; Rosemary possessed Sylver and spoke through her with these haunting words: “I’ll wager with you, I’ll make a bet. The more you deny me, the stronger I get. You start to change when we get in. See our power growing right under your skin.” She giggles as she twirls in Sylver’s body, “Oh come now! Come one, come all, come see what’s underneath!” Rosemary stated as Sylver is possessed. Rosemary left her; Sylver nearly fell but was caught by Narumi and he carried her. In the meantime; Briar somehow absorbs Kimizuki’s power as she got a hold of his Cursed Gear as she summoned Kiseki O’s coffin. However, Kimizuki has misgivings on Briar and he & the others follow her but were shocked to witness her using his Cursed Gear. He was shocked by this sight. Briar managed to come across the monsters in this form. After she took down the beasts; Briar ran a hand across the Cursed Gear, which was only temporarily. “Damn, that was so cool.” She said to herself. That’s when she heard someone shouted in her ear: “Ah-ha!!!!” It made Briar jumped and she returns to normal. She turned to see a sneering Kimizuki. “How did you know how to wake the ‘inner demon’ in my Cursed Gear hm?” He remarked. “I have no idea what the hell you’re talking about.” Lied Briar brightly. She stumbled away but accidentally dropped the Cursed Gear and gives it back to Kimizuki who gave her a look. Yuu reflected with his own sneer, “You know how to use our Cursed Gear.” He said. Briar’s smile faded, her heart thumped like crazy. Now she was in trouble, maybe she can fight her way out of this. “No, you’re just making shit up.” Briar said. “Oh no, I know what I saw.” Kimizuki confirmed. Briar gulped, “Are you trying to demonize me?” She said in a cold tone. “No, nobody else could’ve caused that but you.” Yuu replied. Briar sighed, hands running through her hair. She was stressed by what was happening. “OK, look. I can explain, I’m not like most girls.” She claimed. Yuu’s face softened, “It’s not that—it’s just that you’re hiding something. Like, you’re holding something back.” He notified. “I’m not.” Briar whispered. “I think you are, isn’t she?” Kimizuki said. “Yeah but we can’t force her to tell us.” Yuu insisted. Shinoa managed to clear things up and Briar was left off the hook, much to her delight! Briar could read Yuu and Mika’s minds as she begins to speculate a subtext of lovers in that relationship: Yuu is waiting for Mika and he’s never going to show up. Yuu can’t fathom the fact that he is now gone and continues to look for signs of his presence. He is now in the sky and as he looked in up he notices the clouds spell his name noticing Mika was still going to be there for her. He looks up to heaven praying for Mika to come back to him. He's counting the days to pass time while he waits for Mika. Yuu may also be making a wish on a passing car and that wish being for him to come soon. Yuu is spending his time with friends to fill the void left by Mika. He is growing continually desperate in his absence. Yuu doesn’t understand why Mika hasn’t come yet. He believes in him and looking for signs that will tell her he is coming soon. Yuu wishes he could be in a world where he would never have to worry about the safety of his friend. Yuu fears for Mika, for he might lose him. He doesn’t care what he’s doing as long as it is with Mika! The same thing goes for Mika: Those people he sees should not be there either, but they are. He blames himself for all he had done. He hears Yuu's voice so he then ran away and now he cries. He’s making a wish, a call for somebody out there and asks them for help to search the ones he’d lost. While he’s searching, he’s fighting with monsters, even though he’s tired and is about to run out of energy. He wouldn’t actually admit it, but he’s waiting for a friend to help him up whenever he falls, but he has to help himself up. Mika knew he can’t keep doing this, he hopes that he will get an answer after he had been through a lot of hell. Nobody should try to make him feel his pain again! He’s still sad about abandoning Yuu. He does want a friend to back him up whenever there are too many enemies for him to handle alone. These humans have to show him that it's not the end and save him, sometimes help him. He sees that everyone stands up together and he smiles because they’re all fighting together! Briar smiles, she seems touched by how close these boys are and vows to protect them as well as the others from the dangers within. Ganymede was scared out of his wits by what he saw, he breathed and continued to watch: In the evening; Lola is suspicious of Rosemary and her sisters so she convinces Kimizuki to come with her to find them. Kimizuki reluctantly agrees, however Narumi decides to come with because he wants to find out if Ophelia Fury actually exist as he wants to believe what Sylver claims is the truth. So the three of them ventured out to find an abandoned building where the vampires were being confronted by Rosemary Fury, her sisters—Pansy, Rue and Collie—are battling the vampires while talking them down while Lola, Kimizuki and Narumi stayed hidden during the ordeal as they were lucky the vampires did not suspect them which is surprising. At that point, the vampires apprehend the sisters and sneer at them which worried Lola and the boys. It wasn’t until Rosemary and the other sisters begin to scream like crazy. Then, the next minute happen: Ferid Bathory, Crowley, Horn, Chess, Lacus and Rene turn around in horror to see a woman in a black leather Victorian gown. Alongside the woman were four young girls each wearing red, blue, purple, and pink. “Greetings, have you met our mother?” Rosemary asked while in a red dress. Michael and Hayato were shocked to see the woman in the black leather gown but it changed to a pink, teal and navy floral butterfly printed dress that exposed her shoulders and no straps. She smiles however her appearance changed: She wore a long strapless black dress with side slits of the gown, pale skin, scraggly black hair, deeply hollow eyes, and black lips. Her flowers in her hair and crown become black locust thorns and bird’s foot trefoil flowers. But there were other flowers too: Blood-flowers, false indigos, delphiniums, orange lilies, marigolds, angel’s trumpets, and belladonnas. “Get away from my daughters, you son of a bitches!!!” She exclaimed. Lola, Kimizuki, and Narumi watched in horror as Ophelia and her daughters are fighting with advanced reflexes and supernatural powers, then they had some sort of petrifying aura surround them as they frightened Crowley, Horn, Rene and Chess were terrified while Lacus and Ferid stared in surprised. The Fury family begins to laugh maniacally at their terror and stunned. Only Lola, Kimizuki, and Narumi could stare in fear by the sight of the unstable daughters and insanely erratic mother! Lola, Kimizuki, and Narumi were so scared that they escaped from the area but not before Ophelia saw them running off! Later on while everyone rested but not Briar as she woke up from a nightmare, Briar saw a shadow and gasped while she saw a piece of paper. She picked it up and opened it, in the message it says: “Wow that looked quite intense. I wonder if you can handle a little more intensity. Please bring those two over and we can have a little fun. Sincerely, Rosemary.” Briar re-read the note as she sighed, she knew this was going to be risky but working with these two wasn’t going to be easy. However, she smiles to herself. She seemed to have something up her sleeve….The next day; Briar, Yuu, and Kimizuki were quietly heading towards the location of where Rosemary and the other sisters were. “This is the weirdest mission to be without the others.” Remarked Yuu. “Yeah, I have to agree on that. So, how come Guren let us go on this mission?” asked Kimizuki. Briar smirked as she said, “’Cause I didn’t ask him.” Yuu and Kimizuki looked at her in surprise, “What?” They both said. They looked at her with double takes before bursting out laughing, even Briar laughed with them. “Damn, he’s gonna kill you!” Yuu said. Briar shrugged, “Screw the rules, we got a flying mouse to catch. And besides, I left him a note. Saying I was taking you boys out.” She remarked. Kimizuki snickered, “Man, you’re evil Briar.” He said. “Takes one, to know one.” Briar commented. They reached to the abandoned building while looking up at it. “So, who’s ready for this?” Briar asked. “She’s in there, isn’t she?” Yuu asked. “Oh yeah, why don’t you step in my liege? Time’s—a—wasting.” Briar said, emphasizing on the words. The trio stepped in where they came across a lot of things that looked unrealistic. There were people murdered and using their wax-coated corpses as they looked to be in agony. While looking at them; one of the statues come to life miraculously and gripped onto Briar’s arm as he shouted chaotically: “HELP ME!!! GET ME OUT OF HERE, PLEASE!!!” Briar screamed, she freed herself as she and the guys got away before they found a different chamber in the abandoned building. Briar and the boys found lots of photos. More rarely, newspaper and magazine articles, time lines, address book information or videos are added. For extra creepiness factor, a couple of half melted candles are strategically located at the base of the shrine. There might also be locks of hair, trash, or other mundane items stolen. She has been stealing numerous artworks connected to love. Since she has a known obsession with Yuu as well as his friends. There's even of other people! There were some others Briar encounters with. As they got closer, they saw murdered bodies in the next room--it was an appalling sight. There they could see Rosemary is behind a back-lighted screen as a man's voice shouted, “PLEASE!!!! DON'T DO THIS TO ME!!!! I BEG OF YOU!!!” Nevertheless there was blood splattering against a wall and the guy lied there pleading but he dies of his wounds. Rosemary appeared on sight, Briar’s stomach clenched. “It’s her!” gasped Yuu. “I know, I know.” Kimizuki said back. It was then Rosemary did a strange dance in the room. She took hold of the waltz position where her left leg straightened as the right bend slightly as she pivoted gracefully, she arched her body backwards and, the next thing Rosemary did was that she spins around to the beat and stopped enough to glanced back at them slyly and has a mischievous grin on her face while Briar, Yuu, and Kimizuki stare at her in horror. Rosemary chases after them when she finally used her telekinesis to knock out all three and smiled darkly at their downfall. Moments later; Briar, Yuu, and Kimizuki woke up to see Rosemary, Pansy, Collie, and Rue standing over them. Then, the three of them felt their arms were bound by a telekinetic force around their wrists as well as suspended up in the air. “What is this? What are you doing to us?” Rosemary explains to the three captives: “You will see the purpose of Mother’s revenge…You will know fear, pain and agony….And writhe like scum you are!!!” Rosemary screamed, her powers caused the trio to react to psychic torment and they were shouting in agony as well as begging for mercy. During this process, Rosemary and Pansy are successful for breaking the minds of Briar, Yuu, and Kimizuki. Thus, they are taking control. Briar, Yuu, and Kimizuki's minds are assaulted with painful, horrifying visions, and their will broken. Briar, Yuu, and Kimizuki were screaming from the painful memories inside their heads. Rosemary giggled at their suffering while she watched them writhed. “It’s quite like your life almost Briar, since what you are and what your father did to you. It’s not every day we get to meet a new member of the family.” Remarked Rosemary, “We are alike and I feel that even if we are not related, we know each other so well.” Briar was pissed as she and the other two boys managed to get back to the ground. Rosemary and her sisters looked back with horror across their faces. “YOU DON’T EVEN KNOW ME!!!!” Briar screamed hysterically. Rosemary & Pansy are shocked of what they were seeing before them as well as Yuu and his friends. Lola, Randi, Maggie, and Marina are in total shock and dreaded of this situation. Briar’s eyes looked while, her hair was untidy. Her hands balled into fists. "You are so cold! You are heartless! You don't know me. The only way you know how to treat people is by treating them like monsters! Well, you're the monster! And that is gonna stop! You get it? You get what I'm saying? Hmm?" She said. Pansy could see some sort of fiery rage from inside of Briar, she then said: “We’re sorry…I’m sorry…” She sounded like she meant it! Briar laughed at her, “You?! Sorry?” She then snarled out, “You think you can mess with my life?! Well, I got news for you, bitches! I'm coming for you all. And then I'm coming for Ophelia! And you can pass that along! TO YOUR MOTHER!!!!!” Her powers were out of control! Rosemary and Pansy begins to get scared, Rue and Collie were screaming as well as babbling incoherently. Yuu, Mika and the others were terrified. It wasn’t until Lola stepped in and stopped her best friend! “Brie, please stop! Don’t do this!” She begged. “THOSE BITCHES, THEY DON’T KNOW WHAT I’VE DONE, WHAT I'VE BEEN THROUGH OR ANYBODY ELSE!!!!” shrieked Briar in a panic-stricken voice. However she calms down by a voice from above that says, "Briar...Please, calm your mind...Your temper...Everything will be all right." Briar felt at ease and passed out. Ganymede was trembling, he felt his heart racing: Yoichi and Kimizuki were strapped to a chair, wrists were restrained on arm rests and legs shackled to feet of a chair. Rosemary smiled, “Isn’t it exciting? Seeing the terror upon Shinoa and Mitsuba’s faces? Oh you two wait and see, I have just begun darlings.” She said. “You sick little bitch, you’re not getting away with this!” Kimizuki protested. “Rude boy!” Pansy exclaimed. She uses her powers to punch them both in the gut hard that they coughed up blood. Pansy smiled, she licked the blood running from Kimizuki’s mouth while her arms are around him. “You taste good, sweet boy. She moaned. Rosemary agreed, “Yes sister but could our Human Teddy Bear taste good to?” She walked over to Yoichi, who looks scared, as Rosemary put a finger towards the blood and licks it. Yoichi shudders. But the MPD beeps, Rosemary and Pansy squealed: “Oooh, the show’s about to start!” and the screen turns on. Yoichi and Kimizuki were shocked by what they saw on the screen: Shinoa and Mitsuba strapped to two beds, they were pinned down while their eyes are pried open by specula, which prevents them from closing their eyes. The two girls were forced to watch the MPD playing the memory of Yoichi and Kimizuki who were bound and gagged while tortured by the instructions of Kureto Hiragi. Shinoa and Mitsuba screamed in pain by these footage images being played over and over again! While she and her sisters laughing like hyenas; Pansy glanced at the glaring Kimizuki, “Aww! Is somebody a little scared? You know, just seeing you like this, I gotta say I’m just a sucker for pain. Don’t you like that? You know you do baby.” She said, “You know, I’m feeling a turn on here, I like to see you boys all tied up. Same with girls too, gosh what is about the bound and gag? Ugh! Such frustration!” She and Rosemary laughed together, Pansy then shouts: “Come on, baby! Do it!” She gestured to her sister. But Rosemary gasps softly as she saw a vision of Briar and the team as she glances over at her sister with a sneer, “We got company.” She stated. Pansy sneered back as she chanted, “Kiddies, kiddies, kiddies.” There was a sound of something that broke! Pansy growled, “Stupid kids, you're ruining our girls’ night!” She rushed out of the room! Rosemary is about to leave but turns as she uses her telekinetic powers that punched the boys, they coughed up blood again and they were knocked unconscious. Rosemary blew a kiss, “See you later boys.” She said. And ran off! Rosemary and Pansy approached Briar, who used her powers but the sisters taunts saying, “So…Did you see what we did to your friends? Your darling friends, Yuu boy?” Yuu was shocked, he gets angry and tries to attack them! Just then, Rosemary dodged it and laughs while running off. Guren and his squad managed to find Shinoa and Mitsuba, who looked catatonic. The specula had been removed from the girls’ lids of their eyes; Shinoa saw Yuu as she let out an emotional relief of a sigh and embraced him. “Oh Yuu… I….” Shinoa sobbed. Yuu pats her back, “It’s OK, Shinoa.” He said. In the meantime; Sasha and Connie were releasing Yoichi from the restraints, they carried him out. Jean also released Kimizuki from the binding harnesses, he helped him out. “Aw man, Rosemary…That witch…” muttered Kimizuki under gritted teeth. “Snap out of it, Kimizuki. Or Rosemary will get her victory. Don’t give up now; think about your little sister Mirai. Please don’t give in.” Jean advised him. This caused Kimizuki to snap out of his shock. They all ran to where Rosemary and her sisters are being held, Briar uses her powers to find them and locates them. Briar uses her psychokinesis to break the ground down and up, Rosemary and Pansy jumped at the sound of a loud noise. All four sisters tipped over while yelping incoherently. Pansy looked at the cameras as she muttered, “What the hell?” Her eyes widened in horror and said, “Uh oh sister! They’re loose!” Rosemary growled in anger, “That’s not fair!” She and her sisters were about to flee when the doors burst open with a boom. Briar, her friends, Levi Squad, and Shinoa Squad stood there glaring at them. “It’s over, Rosemary!” Briar declared. With a hand clap; Rosemary summoned the Corruption and smiles, “It hasn’t begun Brie!” She said while spreading her arms out. With that, she and her sisters turned and ran out! Leaving Briar and the others to fend off against the Corruption. The gang overpowered the beasts before fleeing from sight. Shinoa and Mitsuba were recovering from the psychological torture as Briar, Yuu, Mika, Yoichi, Kimizuki, Narumi and the Levi Squad. Yuu offered to say he wants to stay with Shinoa as she claims that she’ll be all right and wants everyone to go after Rosemary. Shinoa looked up solemnly at everyone as she said in a chilling, demanding tone: “Bring me the Fury Family back here! I want them here, and I want them brought at my feet!” Yuu and the others nodded. However to make her point clear, Shinoa exclaimed: “You hear me?! At! My! Feet!!!” Briar nodded, “You got it.” She confirmed. Briar and the others found the building to where she lured them at with her so called invitation. When they entered inside; Briar, Yuu, Mika, Yoichi, Kimizuki and Narumi were shocked to find Rosemary twirled around while singing softly, lost in her own world. But the words she was singing: “…He's talking to demons, he's saving humanity. Taking revenge for the family he lost. He's fighting vampires, he's losing control. Waiting for Mikaela, to pick him up. In his arrrrrrmmmmmmmms yeah! In his arrrrrrmmmmmmmms yeah! Waiting for Mikaela… To lift him up and take him anywhere. Show him his loyalty and eloping from the darkest forces. Save him now before it's too late now.” Briar and the others are shocked however Rosemary turned and she smiles big and wide. “Hiya boys, Briar. How else did you find me?” Rosemary asked with mock surprise. Briar walked over however she shrugged. “Just follow the trail of misery.” She stated. “Oooh, that’s a nice band name.” Rosemary said, “And now for my next trick…Stay there, Briar Devlin.” Rosemary kept walking, and she did not smirk. Yuu smirked. “Errrgh, shit!” cursed Rosemary. She then said, “OK, OK, you know what? Fine, I want you to promise me to look after Yuu, look after Shinoa, looks after them all Sleeping Beauty.” Rosemary stopped dead in her tracks, those words reminded her of what Guren said earlier. “You heard all of that?” She asked. Rosemary pretends to look sad but a smile crept upon her face. “I loved it! Surprise!” She exclaimed. Then; Rosemary turned and called, “Darling. Come in.” She said. Just then, a woman’s heels clicked against the pavement, it was Beauty! Beauty approach beside Rosemary, which she giggles as she said, “Allow me to introduce you to my lovely assistant.” Briar and the gang were shocked, “Who are you?” Narumi inquired. “Beauty. I serve my master for my purpose is his desires to bring life out of death.” Briar looked at her, “Life out of death? Who is your master? Victor Frankenstein? Igor Straussman?” She asked. “That is none of your concern, my goal is to protect him.” Beauty answered. “Look, I don’t think neither of us care who you are or what you do. Or what your master is and what he does for a living…We’re only here to take down Rosemary and her family.” Briar stated. Just then, Rosemary’s voice sound different, “It doesn’t matter, I will continue to be superior. In no time, I will gather the remnants of this world and be on top of the food chain.” She claimed. The others are horrified but Beauty chuckled, “Mistress Rosemary, I’m sorry but that was a horrible impersonation.” She said. Rosemary scowled, “It’s not my fault she’s stuck in my head!” She protested. Briar looked at Rosemary in amazement. Yoichi, Kimizuki, Narumi and Mika gaped in disbelief. Yuu threw his hands up in disbelief, “She’s imitating Shinoa!” He exclaimed. “Heh, almost Yuu.” Yoichi declared meekly. Rosemary glares at the others, she turned to Beauty and commanded: “Beauty, dear? Would you do the honors?” As if on cue; Beauty strips off her blue pinstripe dress to reveal a white mini gown with short sleeves and the length of the dress reached her knees almost. Beauty crouch down into a squat, she let out a shaky gasp as she felt her body shuddered. Her spine protruded from her back, her fingers become claws and feet got sharper. Her sclera turns black while her pupils were amber. She bared her jagged teeth and snarled gently but furiously. Briar and the others gasped. “Oh my god! She’s a---a—an Infestation!” The guys back away in terror and prepared to attack if necessary to battle this girl. “My master has made me a servant, a protector and I will remove all obstacles in my path.” Beauty glanced over at Rosemary, “Mistress?” She asked. Rosemary nodded, “Go get ‘em, girl.” She declared. Beauty nodded as she pounced Yoichi, who looked terrified, she then cut a gash across his cheek and licked the bleeding wound. Yoichi whimpered in fear however Rosemary growled and kicked at Beauty in a fit of rage. She came beside Emily and the others while she said, “You’re all my toys, my playmates. But I’ll keep you safe, all of you.” Rosemary leaned in and kissed the side of Yuu’s face. Yuu pulled away, trying to catch his breath. It was at this point; Rosemary puts her arms around Yuu, Yoichi and Kimizuki while saying: “Yes, my playmates to be kept safe and sound…” She continued to say while she rubbed Yoichi’s back but eventually pinched it, “….But only I get to play and no one else gets to take ANY OF YOU OR BREAK MY TOYS!!!” The pinch caused Yoichi to cringe, “Ow.” He said. Rosemary grabbed both Yuu and Kimizuki’s chins, squeezing their cheeks. “But I’m the one to toy with my play thing.” Cooed Rosemary, “My boy toys, my Cherry Boys—I can pluck the ripest one. You can’t escape me sweetie.” Yuu and Kimizuki struggles while grunting. Rosemary smirked at Briar, who glares at her with retaliation and her telekinesis was about to go hay-wired. “I will save them, I will protect them.” She thought. However, Briar had a vision that made her smile and sneered down at Rosemary. “What’s so funny?” Rosemary asked. “It seems like your ripe little ‘Cherry Boys’ aren’t going to be pluck after all, you got yourself a relation visitor coming to join the party.” Briar remarked. Rosemary was confused, “What?” She asked. Just then, there was a shot sound and Rosemary let out a cry of pain as she released Yuu and Kimizuki from her grasp. Rory leaped and in instant she landed on her feet. She stood up as Briar noted out loud, “Rory Leigh, also known as the ‘Fastest Weapon Alive’. Advanced powers of speed and strength while also her reflexes are abnormal, compare to the average human.” The others looked at her while Rory smiled. “You mean she’s….not human?” Mika asked. “Superhuman to be exact, this chick can do some pretty kick ass things.” Replied Briar. Briar turned to Rory and echoed Rosemary’s words to her: “Go get ‘em, girl.” She declared. Like a bat out of hell; Rory was swift by movement and took down Rosemary as well as Beauty. Rosemary was angry, she then screeched: “STOP INTERFERING SISTER!!!!” Rory didn’t reply, instead she was moving as her reflexes were undeniably quick. Superhuman advanced perhaps. Rory loaded her sniper rifle with bullets and aimed high at the Infestations before shooting down the crawling monsters. Boy, this girl was quick to be on her toes but they don’t call her the Perfect Sniper Assassin for nothing, despite being a teenage girl! “Damn, she’s good! Faster than any other wild feline on an adrenaline rush. Who the hell is this girl? Who found her, anyway? A Good Samaritan?” thought Briar. Rory Leigh continues to help her and the others fight the monsters while also Rosemary’s wrath! Once she has defeated Rosemary onto the ground; Rory wrote down something for only Rosemary to read in a jiffy, “I’ll never let you win, Rosie. NEVER!!” Rosemary screamed and then swiftly pounced upon Yuu and Narumi as she sneered down at them which they found out they were over a ditch, “Well then…Looks like you’re going overboard…May you have the Rosary of Mary upon you!” She waved, “Bye bye…” Rosemary squeezed Yuu’s cheeks of his face while cooing, “…Cherry boy….” Before kicking him and Narumi, “…And Poseidon Boy!!!” Yuu and Narumi screamed as they fell in while everyone watches on in shock. Rosemary laughs however she didn’t hear a crash of bodies down which shocked her until she is pinned to the wall and groans in pain. She looks up and gasps, Eren sneers down at her. “Hello Rosemary.” He greets. Rosemary deeply sighs, “Hello Eren…I missed you.” She whispered. “Me too, I’m ready for what happen to my friends. Me and what you & your family did to everyone else!” Eren claimed. “Oooh, revenge yes! It’s turning me on!” Rosemary moaned. “Shut up!” Eren exclaims. He attacks however Rosemary dodges it. She places her hands around Eren from behind, “You’ll never beat me, darling.” She turned and ran off as the others chased after her but they found themselves in a room of statues that resembled the past lives of tragic events. The intercom turned on and no surprise, it was Rosemary’s voice: “Do you know the meaning of obsession? No? OK, let’s start! Obsession: Something that takes over your mind, then your life revolves around that certain and most import thing that gets to be that sort of addiction. You may wonder if my life was a sham, no it was not. But full of pain? Oh yes indeed. No pun intended. What matters to me are that I’m in desperate need for live and affection. Something I longed for, so empty and yet I’m feeling very selfish. I don’t really care how people feel towards me or my family. You see, Pansy and I—even our beloved family—want something to fill that void. All was just average but this extraordinary change can be intimidating and nauseating with all that gore of the remorseless. I mean, buckets of blood. Gallons of organs, it can be so friggin’ tedious so what we need is something to fill that emptiness. It’s such a comfort to know there is so much more to this passive life. Don’t you see? You are the whole world to the Fury family. We want you so badly to put our names on our ‘toys’ that need our most undying protection! All I want is for you to love each and every one of us from minute to minute…I can treat you the way I want to, not the pretend way but whatever you do don’t think too much! We are unable to control the thoughts of ourselves. We never wanted to be addicted to you people but happens and we want your undivided attention. We don’t want to be ‘in love’, if you prefer to call it that, nevertheless there is some sort of charm. A precious gem glowing that’ll hurt anyone’s eye from the beauty of it all. I don’t know but I can see it in your eyes. Your thoughts. Everything about what you are today: Momma killed by a Titan, Sister forced by a Nazi-like leader to become a living weapon, sister was murdered by a vampire, friends murdered in cinema pictures for no reason or is there something to it?” Rosemary talked while Briar and the others fought the Infestations! Rosemary continued, “Maybe it was a cruel act of savagery. My point is…” Behind Briar, Rosemary held a knife and stabbed her in the back and Briar fell on the ground. “…This whole world can make someone like me go insane.” Eren, Yuu and the others try to attack but Briar signaled them to not strike as she takes the pain, waiting for the right moment. Rosemary continued to beat Briar as she proceed to talk, “You don’t know the cruelty of life or why people become cynical by all this…I mean do you ever think about 260 people that were injured and three were killed when two bombs went off near the finish line at an annual running marathon? Underneath our image of social cohesion – we’re ‘savages’, barely even human at times – that are capable of horrific actions. We attempt to differ ourselves from the animal kingdom with social customs, clothing, but these are just facades .Underneath all the social rules and customs we’ve created, underneath the rational brain and civilizations, we’re no different from the other animals guided purely by instinct, the 'savages'…After all that, I need to know one original thing, HOW COME YOU HAVEN’T LOST YOUR MIND?! WHY HAVEN’T YOU SNAPPED?!” Rosemary raised her foot up to stomp on Briar but unfortunate, Briar caught her foot and twist it as Rosemary was thrown backwards. “Because I snapped once and let me tell you, it wasn’t fun…At all.” Briar declared. Rosemary tries to assault Briar again but Briar uses her powers. “I spoke to Shinoa earlier, she wants you and your sisters brought back to Evermore at her feet. And that’s why we’re here—to take you down. Here’s something you to know, since what you did to her and Mitsuba; she’s one of the most logic people I’ve known. Not everyone snaps all the time…Maybe…You’re wrong.” Briar said. In anger; Rosemary growled and try to use her powers to break her but Briar instead used her own abilities and she banged Rosemary against the wall harder when the wall crumbled and Rosemary plunged into the wall! It was then Rosemary fell into a vat of blood with a splash. Much to everyone’s surprise; Briar dived in after and both of them re-emerged from the vat. Rosemary looked up in shock, “Wh—what?” She stammered. “Wh—Why?” Briar just simply smiled at her, “Easy. I gotcha.” She whispered. While on their mission; Randi, Shinoa, Marina and Mitsuba came across Kureto Hiragi and his soldiers. Kureto demanded to know where Rosemary and her sisters wandering around the place. Shinoa as well as Mitsuba lead Kureto inside of an empty theater. While the soldiers looked around; Kureto turned to Shinoa and Mitsuba, “Well? Where is she?” He demanded. Shinoa pointed toward the ceiling, “Up there. I know she’s up in there. Hiding. I swear!” She explained. Kureto glanced over and noticed a couple of familiar hidden figures, Yoichi and Kimizuki was shocked as well as frozen with fear. Kureto grinned smugly, “So it’s you two again.” He remarked. Kimizuki and Yoichi were too frighten to move when all of a sudden, a sultry hissing female voice startled everyone: “KURETO!!! DID I NOT INSTRUCT THAT BOX FIVE WAS TO BE KEPT EMPTY?!” Shinoa, Randi, Mitsuba, Marina, Yoichi, Maggie, Kimizuki, and Lola were shocked. “She’s here, Rosemary!” gasped Mitsuba. Just then, Shinoa was lifted from the ground by a supernatural force and hurled at the side. “DAMN YOU LITTLE PRYING VIPER!!! DO YOU REALIZE WHAT YOU DONE?! YOU LITTLE TRAITOR!!!” Rosemary screeched. The same thing happened to Mitsuba as Rosemary also screamed at her, “CURSE YOU, YOU LITTLE LYING DEMON!!! YOU ARE THE WORST!!! YOU ARE THE WORST BRAT IN THE WORLD!!! ANNOYING!!! INSANELY CRAZY!!! SCREWBALL!!!” Shinoa and Mitsuba were shaken in fear, Randi and Marina stay with them as they comfort her. “You cannot escape your fate.” Kureto declared. “Revenge—is mine!” hissed Rosemary. She caused chaos and laughing at the suffering of the soldiers. “Poor, unfortunate, foolish souls they make me laugh! Ha-ha!” Rosemary resonating with manic, she sounded like she was singing but the sounds above sounds like she’s dancing. Twirling, it maybe. Aoi spoke out, “Enough of this, get down here!” She then felt something tightening her throat as he chokes out, “You are supposed to be silent, little toad! Wait, yes. Perhaps it is you who is the toad.” Rosemary ranted. Aoi was struggling to breathe and Rosemary giggled at her struggle. Aoi coughed, she gagged while she try to break free however Rosemary laughed in a maniacal way that frightened everyone else. Rosemary then said, “Behold! She is ‘singing’ to bring down the CHANDELIER!!!” And she chortles in the most frantic way. However, Aoi was freed from the chokehold and tumbled to the ground. Rosemary would’ve continued if Sylver have not stepped forward and speaks out, “Angel, I hear you. Speak, your servant is listening. Stay with me, guide me and grant me your glory my guardian angel. Enter as you will.” Rosemary is touched and lures Sylver into a trance where she is separated from the others. After watching all that; Ganymede was gasping for breath, “What was all that?” He demanded. “The terrors that Rosemary had caused in the past. She feels bad but wants to move ahead, you see.” Debbie explained gently.
