Sorry for the delay, I think I'm so focused on Phantasmagoria and I need more ideas for this. I'm trying my best to not let the pressure get to me so much. Anyway, please read and enjoyed as there's some familiar faces coming back. --KatDon 

Chapter 2: Shot Like a Rocket Into the Sky, Nothing Can Stop Me Now! 

Since what happened; Lily did a cheerleader chant for Jethro, who looked embarrassed but modest by her sweet routine. “Did you see the way he talked down to those bastards? Awesome!” Lily squealed. Emily seized her by the shoulders and gave her a shake, “Where the hell did you get this guy?” She demanded. Lily was so excited and seemed like she was prattling eagerly. “Well…I met him, got his card and…I convinced him….It’s a long story really! Oooh, what I would want to do to see the look on those bastards’ faces! I have a feeling Edom Hiroki is conspiring with the Ojore Clan!” It was then Aricia steamed up with annoyance that turned to anger. “We’re too busy right now to be worried about the Ojore family, Lily!” Aricia exclaimed. “What? I just want them to go crazy like me!” Lily protested. “First Edom Hiroki, now them?! Just how many people do you have on your shit list!? GET RID OF THEM!!!!” cried Aricia. “What a heartless thing to say!” Lily yapped. Meanwhile; a young lady strolled into the night with a Japanese parasol. She sat at a bench in a vacant train station. It was then Masara Hayate approached her. “How long are you going to be in the dark? Come; let me take you into the light.” The girl asked. “No, it’s not time.” The girl said timidly. “Why not?” Masara asked. “The lights…they blind me.” The girl admitted. “They make you stronger, don’t they?” Masara inquired. “Indeed, but I rather stay in the shadows until it’s my time to shine. Besides it’s too soon to reveal to her now.” The girl said. “Don’t let the shadows consume you.” Masara reminded. “I won’t.” promised the girl. The girl turns her head and sneers, she stood up as the train wails while approaching. The girl jump into the light and it seemed like time stood still. The girl held her hand out. “Come and find me…If you dare!” She commanded. Yukta, Dakota, Ignis and Tanith were looking around while they were ready to fight. “Where the hell did she go?” Yukta demanded. “Yoo hoo, boys! I’m over here, come and get me!” The girl taunted. “There you are!” Ignis claimed. They fired weapons at her but the girl dodged them. The girl smirks at the four of them and does a shake with her hips. “Hey, Sexy Nightshade! Are these ass hats giving you trouble? How about you tell them to piss off and run away with me? I’ll give you the freedom you deserve from these pricks you referred to as your brothers.” The girl flirted. Tanith glances up at her, masking the heartfelt ponder of breaking away with curiosity. “Hold on a sec!” Yukta interrupted, “You better not cast a spell on Tanith like that. There’s no chance she’ll be with you!” The girl smiled, “I’m after the lonely hearts, give them a brand new start.” She said. “Like in hell there’s such a thing as ‘lonely hearts’!” Dakota hissed. “Is that so? We’ll see about that, won’t we?” The girl replied, sneering smugly. She uses her reliquary while battling against the three brothers while she caught Tanith in the orb around her and made sure the brothers didn’t know what was going on. While inside; the girl circled Tanith, “Look at you, you’re acting like the cat got the cream but inside you’re pulling at your hair! Are you meant to be happy with the change in your life? ‘Cause it’s your problem if they don’t see what you see! Your issues are your own to deal with, it’s like people tell you how you can succeed. The truth is you want to pack up and run away because you have no friends and you want to kill yourself! Tell me something…Are you satisfied with your life? Do you need to live a lie to make your way in life? Once you’ve crossed the line, will you be truly satisfied? You’re sad inside—admit it! Living in a black and white setting of unsatisfied results.” She said. Reiju didn’t say anything, the girl put her arms around her, “What’s wrong? Do you want to be with somebody like me? Do you want to be a member? I’ll take advantage of your heart, make you retreat into the dark. Your feelings are like weather, it doesn’t last forever—Y’know, January to December.” She said. The girl touched Tanith’s hair, “When your presence is around me, my blood is burning. My heart is a nuclear bomb in my chest; my life is all I fear…You make me radioactive.” She whispered. Tanith looked at her with shyness despite her brave face. The girl took her hands into hers. “You want to leave? Then let’s go! Let us leave, right away!” The girl encouraged. Tanith pulled away, “I can’t!!!” She exclaimed. She looked at the girl in the eyes and said: “…It’s complicated.” The girl looked at her, “You’re afraid they’ll find you?” Tanith bowed her head, “…Yes.” She replied. The girl put her hands on her and said, “I’ll protect you.” Tanith spoke but her voice is choked up, “They’ll hurt me.” The girl smiled darkly. “I don’t care, I’ll beat their asses.” She said. Tanith was unsure however the girl tells her of her name and Tanith is stunned, she smiled. “Sounds familiar. Hmm…” Tanith remarked. “But this has to be a secret….Shhhh…..Don’t tell….” The girl said, putting a seductively finger to her lips. She released Tanith from the orb and the girl vanished! While Yukta, Dakota and Ignis were facing against monsters; Lily appeared on cue while she gasped dramatically, “OMG! The infamous Ojore family? What a surprise!” She squealed. Yukta grinned, hearts in his eyes. “It’s the cutie!” He exclaimed. Lily beamed with giggles, “Yup, yup! That’s me! You guys look like you’re in need for some fun.” She prattled. Dakota was suspicious, “What do you mean ‘fun’?” He demanded. Lily tapped her finger to her chin, “Well…let’s call it a contest. I mean, it involves with someone who would be interested to see you. Are you willing to play along?” She asked. “Look, we’re not---!” Yukta is about to protest but Ignis stops him and grins, “We love to play along; maybe the price could be you.” He said. Lily was excited, “OK, here all the rules…If you can catch me, I’ll grant you any wish your heart’s desire.” She said. Now this got those brothers’ attention, they had the most disturbed yet vile looks on their faces. “Anything?” Ignis asked. Lily gives him a suggestive glance while beaming with excitement, “Anything you want.” She said. Before the brothers could answer, Lily was already sprinting and they hurried after her! “Oooh! Scary!” Lily squealed with giggles. “You haven’t seen anything yet.” Dakota exclaimed. “When we catch you, we can do anything we want to you right? You’re gonna make us go crazy!!!” Yukta cried. Lily called out: “You’re gonna have to work for it boys!” Lily caused him to not lose sight of her. “You guys are doing good, you make me admire you more~!” Lily said, she kept jumping. “You’re kinda cute when you get all seductive.” Yukta said. Lily uses one of her pigtails to hide her face a little shyly while saying with those big doe eyes, “I could do more than this, if you catch me.” She admitted. “Oh yes…” Dakota moaned. Lily as the three brothers were closing in. Diane shakes her hips while waving, “Come here, boys. I’m wide open!” She teased. “You’re all mine, you bad girl!” Dakota exclaimed. Lily’s innocent doe eyed changed and she jumps from them while shouting: “NOW GUYS!!!” Ignis, Dakota and Yukta were confused. Emily, Jethro, Bonnie, Kynan and Ipsita head out to the battlefield. Just then during the battle; there was music begins to play and all heads turn to see a shocking sight: She wore a red ribbon lace-up corset. There were black flocked rose print panels and solid black ruched panels separated by boning. The deep sweetheart neckline meeting at the opening of the corset where silver tone hook closures hold everything together. Red tank sleeves are worn off the shoulder and wore a green, black, white and blue plaid skirt that has adorable pleats. Lily playfully swing on the pole and she did some faux moves of her arms behind her as she went down as she threw her hair back in a dramatic fashion and twirl on the pole. Lily came back up, hands together on the pole and try to look sexy yet mysterious. Dakota watched intensely with a demure grin on his face. It was then; Lily dropped her knees to the floor and her hands to the sky. Lily tossed her head and bend over backwards while her breasts could be seen but she wasn’t exposed. Jethro grins, “Damn! She’s good.” He admitted. “This was Mesalina’s idea?” Emily demanded. She placed her palms to her forehead, “She’s gone crazy.” She groaned. Lily was doing more dances as Kamoku and Evan were in disbelief. “Is that really Lily?” Kamoku asked. Emily sighed, “Yeah, she tells me it’s all part the plan. I blame Mesalina for this!” She grumbled. It was then Arlow noticed that the three Ojore brothers were distracted for a moment before they broke into violent tendencies of their battles. Arlow is stunned, “She’s arousing them into brutality. I can’t believe this.” He muttered. They had to focus on the battle while Emily encountered Hendrick Ojore who tries to take her on but Emily uses her telekinesis to deflect it. Hendrick, Ignis, Dakota, Yukta and Tanith were shocked at this. “What are you?!” demanded Hendrick with an angry growl. “You will soon find out.” Emily retorted. She dodged him while also taking on the soldiers! Yukta turned and his eyes were in bewilderment at what he was seeing: Lily climbed the pole while swinging her legs in the process and twirls around it. Lily lets her chest bounced up for effect, Yukta had a psychotic grin to his face and mauled all the monsters approaching! He realized this while wondering what’s the hell is going on. During all the battles; Lily hold onto the pole, she bends down seductively and comes back up while shaking her hips. She has a very impish smile on her lips as she notices Ignis watching and he was enthralled by her. Lily grinds her hips against the pole while she clapped her hands to the rhythm. Boy, Dakota looked like he couldn’t take anymore of the inflamed performance. Lily’s heart and caused her to fall on her knees. Lily felt something happen to her. She chanted to herself, “You….make me feel….invincible…. You….make me feel….in….vinci….BLE!!!!!!” Lily has an X mark on her face that was a distinctive facial rash across her forehead and face as well as a desire to take down the Ojore clan with an ax in hand. She charges after the soldiers and the Ojore clan! Carla, Ayuta and Harence were shocked as Emily and the others were alarmed by Lily’s full on Fury form. Just then, Lily was exhausted while passing out. It was then a figure in red with streaked red veinous all over the body, elongated jaw, fangs and claws. The figure reveals to be Aricia from her breasts in the red suit but she was in a passionate, vicious frenzy on taking on the Ojore family until Emily saw Hendrick reach towards her however Emily steps in while exclaiming: “HERE ME OJORE CLAN!!! I AM EMILY GRYNTE! AGENT OF EVERMORE! THE SLEEPING BEAUTY! REINCARNATED AS THE VALKYRIE OF BRYNHILDA…YOUR WRATH OF THIS WORLD…IS OVER!!!” She uses the powers of the Ojores and was powerful enough to take them on! However, they easily escaped and it was over…For now! At Dream State; Bonnie is bitter about the Ojore Brothers are still out there and has no patience for Ipsita and Kynan’s fighting. Ipsita knows how serious she is when all three of them are shocked to see Fatine in Bonnie’s quarters. As usual; Kendan came in drunk as he said in a slurred tone: “Hey! Have a drink with….” But stopped when he saw Fatine and dropped his bottle of ale. It made a crash! “What was that?” Hindel cried. “Uh…it’s nothing! Kendan accidentally dropped something! I’ll clean it!” Bonnie called. Fatine sat up and he grinned. “You’re the harpy from before.” Fatine retorted. Bonnie was flustered, “I’m not!” She claims. “I saw you.” Fatine said. “What the hell are you doing in my room?” sputtered Bonnie. “Oh, Lily let me in. Wait! Your friends don’t know I’m here?” Fatine asked. “Nobody knows!” Bonnie rasped. Fatine grinned and tried again, “Are you really a harpy?” He asked. Bonnie breathed, “Yes….” She admitted. Fatine chuckled, “I knew it.” He muttered. Bonnie clutched at the ends of her hair. “This is so not happening!” She groaned. Henry rolled his eyes, “Will you relax? I’m not gonna tell anyone, OK? You lads are all right. I like you folks.” He claimed. Hearing this; Bonnie, Ipsita, Kynan and Kendan started to trust him. At Cosmos Festival of a large concern being held above beautiful oceans of a tropical sight as Electra was performing a tempo beat song. The sun rays caused Electra to seem like she’s glowing with radiance. She was locked in her own groove. She performed a song. Just then; Hopeless Fountain Kingdom soldiers crashed the festival and panic arises in the crowd as they scattered about. Emily and the others were prepared for this as they saved everyone else. Kezia try to run but almost fell into the floorboards and held on while crying out for her father. She managed to get herself up when she thought she saw someone. “Dad?” Jeanne gasped. She looked up but her smile faded as she saw those despicable Ojore brothers. “Hello there, pretty thing!” Yukta said with a leer. Kezia screamed. “BACK OFF GRUESOME!!!” Lily screamed, giving this brute a kick in the chin. Sending Yukta into the next county! “What the frigg--?” Bonnie demanded. “I am the motherfriggin’ princess, OJORE! SHOT LIKE A ROCKET INTO THE SKY, NOTHING CAN STOP ME TONIGHT!!!” Lily screeched. Emily was stunned. Lily pulls out her reliquary and sends her Nightmarchers after the HFK while she saved Kezia. But when he turned, they were gone. Later; Tate was walking along with his squad as the others were rather concern. Tate finally reached Lily and his shadow fell upon her. Lily stopped what she was doing and looked at him, pretending to be uppity. “Yes?” Lily asked. Tate sighed and hold a container of supplements. “Care to tell me how you got these drugs?” He demanded. Lily smiles, “The supplements? Well, I got one of my Nightmarchers to steal them and used them against the Ojore Bros.” She explained. The others were flabbergasted, “Wait, that’s why they were violently attacking us? I thought…” Tate said. “My sexy dance moves did the work? Nah, not really….Part of it but not completely.” Lily said bluntly. However; Lily receives a distressing signal and gasped, she was about to communicate with someone when a dull voice said: “I got it, don’t worry.” Lily and the others turned as Lily grinned excitedly. The distress was that Fatine and Mesalina’s daughter, Kezia was in the lion’s den against the HFK soldiers. But Kezia saw a young lady that has a butterfly winged cape that saves her and Kezia was shocked to see the woman was gorgeous yet kind. It was Tanith as she takes her to a path to the building she’s looking for but warns her to stay away from her mercenary brothers--Ignis, Dakota and Yukta. Tanith claims that they are evil and mad, this made Kezia uneasy. "I don't want to go among mad people." She declared. "You can't help it, we’re all mad here.” Tanith replied sadly. Kezia was unnerved and walked but then she heard sounds and then she felt her vision blurry. Everything went black! Kezia woke up, she was horrified as she was held captive by Ignis, Dakota and Yukta who try to break her emotionally as Kezia was bounded while she was scared and begging for mercy however she was not given any. It was a nightmare until she freed herself and escaped with her life depending on it. Once she was safe; Kezia broke down crying from all that happened. However; she is being chased though she does not stop running. She finds a dead end as Yukta and Dakota confront her. “Stay away from me!” Kezia shouted. “Don’t be like that, sweet thing!” Yukta taunted. In her panic; Kezia took a taser she had on her and tries to use it against him. But it didn’t work as he looked unfazed and Kezia learns he wields the powers of electric. Dakota smirked, “Was that supposed to hurt?” He asked. Kezia gasped while the other two brothers laugh. Then, a spin of blades cuts the HFK soldiers into pieces. Kezia gasps, she felt a shadow upon her and saw the dull looking façade, the bowl shaped haircut, his eyes were dark and he wore a black cloak. Mason! “The hell?! A short stuff mauled our soldiers?!” Yukta exclaimed. Mason glanced at Kezia, “You OK girlie?” He asked. Kezia nodded, “Yes sir.” She said. “Good, I’m getting you out of here.” Mason replied, he beckoned to her and Kezia held onto him with no hesitation. “Hang on.” Mason commanded. Kezia nodded. Mason uses his weapons as they soared while Kezia screamed in terror by all this. Stan was watching Mason glide away! Yukta and Dakota confronted him as Ignis glared at Stan who didn’t seem to notice. “YOU IDIOT!!! HOW COULD YOU LET HIM ESCAPE!?” Dakota shouted. However; Stan took all three brothers by the collars and he said: “Boys…Where the friggin’ hell did this son of a bitch got those MAGNIFICANT TOYS?!” Ignis managed to choke out, “I…haven’t had the slightest idea…..” Once Kezia was reunited with her father and mother; she couldn’t stop thanking Mason for saving her life. Although grateful; Mason advises her to stay out of trouble. In the meantime; Mesalina was in town when she heard gossip-mongering girls. “OMG! It’s him! That’s him!” An admirer girl squealed. “Are they bad like everyone says?” Another girl asked. “It’s just a rumor!” prattled the first admirer. “They’re gorgeous, dangerous and kill anything!” said the second admirer. Mesalina overheard this and decides to put this in her notes, she saw Tanith and walked up to her. “Tanith Ojore, no?” Fatima asked. “And you are?” Tanith asked. “Mesalina. There’s something scandalous you need to know and it concerns your family.” Mesalina said. Whatever Mesalina told her, Tanith was left with a leer on her face. “You serious?” She asked. “It’s a rumor, really but it’s the only explanation.” Mesalina said. Tanith scoffs with a small laugh and shakes her head in disbelief. Afterwards; Meslaina was giving herself a foot bath while reading a magazine. Just then, noises of scuffling and grunts caught her attention but she was aloof about it. Her office door banged open! Yukta, Dakota and Ignis marched in and boy, they were not happy bunnies! “You backstabbing, two timing scoundrel tramp….!” Yukta growled. Mesalina places her wet feet on a towel while smiling amusingly at him, “Now, now. Is that a way to talk to a lady?” She teased. “You told Tanith that we are conspiring with some uppity bastard name Edom Hiroki? We killed them to be the next heir to our family namesake?! Bullshit! If this happens again, you’re daughter is our playmate!!!” Dakota roared. Mesalina shoves him away, “No, you won’t! You don’t realize who you’re dealing with do you? I have evidence of your kingdom, your cloning machine and everything else. One wrong move and I’ll give the go to blow up your castle…your empire will be in shambles.” She threatened. The trio brothers were distressed; they couldn’t believe her. “You wouldn’t--!” Ignis entreated. “Try me, you like destroying lives? I destroy lives too!” countered Mesalina. “Why would you do this?” Dakota begged. “Why? I do not have the patience to waste on stuck up assholes like you! GET A CLUE!!! YOU IMPOTENT DIPSHITS!!!” Mesalina exclaimed. Jethro and the other security guards comes in and Mesalina said under clench teeth, “Now…get the hell out of my office!” She was fierce but Yukta, Dakota and Ignis backed off as they were about to walk. But Dakota turn while saying, “This isn’t over yet!” Mesalina points to the door, “SCAT!!!” She demanded. And they were gone. Jethro comes in, shocked before he burst out laughing: “Oh God that was badass!” He exclaimed. Mesalina sighed, “That will teach those shitheads a lesson!” She muttered. But it didn’t last long because those HFK bastards attacked again but Bonnie managed to confront them along with her other friends! During the battle; Bonnie held her guns in her hands at her enemies, “What’s the matter? Don’t you want me?” She purred. She did a hard kick at Dakota and flipped her hair, “Not so tough are ya? Is that all you got?” Chloe retorted. But Yukta knocks her down. She was struggling from the grasps of Dakota and Yukta. Fatine was fuming at this sight, “That’s it! Now I’m pissed…You’re going to pay!” He said to the soldiers. Fatine glares down at the terrified HFK while saying, “This is for Bonnie.” He uses his weapon to knock them across the room which knocked Dakota and Yukta down! Bonnie winced as she and her gang turned to see Fatine shouting at them: “GO AFTER AT HER AGAIN AND YOU ANSWER TO ME!!!” Electra laughs, “Oooh! This guy is serious; don’t screw with him!” She called out. Nariko and Veruca fends off against the HFK soldiers, they were back to back with each other in this. However; a familiar face enter the battlefield and it was none other than Evita who came to help. Bonnie was surprised to see her because she hasn’t heard from her since the whole fiasco of Gideon and Constable’s demises. Sadly; Lily and Evita are taken hostage by the Ojores. During the process, Tanith noticed that Evita has a poison seeped in her and could see that Lady Evita is no ordinary woman as she offers to clean out the poison. Beauty was intrigued and agrees. Tanith leans in and sucks the poison from Beauty’s wound, Beauty felt aroused by this woman’s poison sucking and was cured but she felt like she had been wanting something so sensual for awhile! It was then Beauty broke from her bonds while she tackles Tanith onto the wall and bites her neck suggestively. Lily, Yukta, Ignis and Dakota are shocked by watching this. Evita pulls away with a seductive lick to her lips. Yukta, Ignis and Dakota were speechless. Evita smiled, Lily grinned. But she was prepared for what’s to come soon when she felt shadows upon her. “You were a dancer right?” asked Yukta. Lily rolls her eyes, “I was one earlier.” She retorted. “Really? Wanna show more of that again?” Yukta said. Lily scoffed with attitude, “Uh, no? I’m tired. Let’s do this some other time, ‘kay? Great. Thanks.” She said. Just then, Dakota grabs Lily by her hair while shouting: “I don’t GIVE A SHIT BITCH!!!” Lily is thrown in the corner and almost hit the pole but found her balance. The music was being played while Lily half hearted sway of her hips while dancing on the pole feebly. She heard the brothers snickering. Dakota spoke up, "That's right...Keep at it...You know, I always thought you were something...Lying to us when you were playing the little ditzy girl. And then, you try to swing at us with that ax, and the way you took on our father like that was crazy but that whole dance you did changed our minds. And we thought Emily was feisty.” Lily rolled her eyes. That’s when Yukta slammed his fist on the wall. "COME ON! YOU CALL THAT EXCITING?! HA, COME ON!!! DANCE BETTER!!!" He exclaimed. Lily felt her vision blur as she angrily kicked those two bastards down and sauntered over to them. She leans in with a smirk. “DANCE TO THIS, TOOL!!!” She exclaimed. She pounced her heeled shoes on their chests hard but not too deep. Ignis grabbed her and tossed her on the other side of the room. Lily looked up to see psychotic looks on Dakota and Yukta’s faces. “You thought that was funny?” demanded Yukta. “Yeah, hilarious.” Lily retorted. Dakota clenched his fist. “You want hilarious? I’ll show you hilarious!” He exclaimed. But all three of them are struck with something that made them feel pain. Lily is confused and looked to see Evita is the one responsible. Lily is astonished that Evita has shot all three Ojore brothers with a syringe. “Wow! Where'd you learn to do that?” She asked. Evita smirked and said, “Useless Talent #37. I got that from Planet Terror.” She flexed her fingers while she helps Lily escaped while Tanith watched them go in amazement. Ignis, Dakota and Yukta managed to fight the effects while trying to re capture Lily however they lost sight of her. Just then; Lily’s ringed out: “SURPRISE MOTHER CHUCKER!!!!” Lily injected something in the back of Ignis’s neck. He reacted in pain, it was then Veruca drugged Yukta with the same injection as well as Dakota! “You guys fell for the sick gag, boys.” Sylver said with a laugh. Then, Evita faced them before she socked them with her hammer. All three brothers passed out. They woke up to a pair of cleavage and a bosom; Evita looked at them with curiosity. “Are these guys for real? I cannot believe they are Ipsita’s brothers.” She retorted. “Aye!” Happy agreed. “Get your ass back here, Evita!” Lily demanded. Evita stepped away in fear. “I just wanna make sure they’re OK. Geez!” Evita complained. “No guys like them are OK, why have sympathy for the devils anyway?” Lily retorted. “You little cutie, there is nothing wrong with you.” Ignis spoke. “Nice of you to say, but you of all people should know…there's plenty wrong with me.” Lily said with an enticing look. She holds up drugs while saying, “Take these drugs for example, I wish somebody would. This stuff is driving me crazy!” Ignis is suspicious, “Why do you think we should care?” He asked. “Because now, there's a teeny little bit of those drugs in you too boys~!” Lily said with a laugh. The trio of brothers is in shock as Lily continues: “Oh, did I say a ‘teeny little bit’? I meant a colossal, great amount of those drugs in you. Hee hee! Imagine having the exact same drugs as the HFK soldiers and Daddy O.” Lily said. Dakota struggled in his bounds, “What the hell are you talking about?” He demanded. Lily pretended to be surprise, “Oh didn't I say? I've spent weeks giving them these drugs in their foods and drinks.” She said. Lily leans in while saying, “I’m going to enjoy every minute of it….Hold tight.” She kicked the three of them out of the window while hollering, “I'll be in touch!” But she didn’t double the dose, she was waiting for the right moment to do so but things were increasing soon! After receiving a communication from Hendrick Ojore; Emily and Lily walked into the garden. There they were---the family of Ojore waiting. “So you came.” Hendrick retorted. Emily smiled which never met her eyes, “Well, you were insisted.” She said. She sat as well as Lily who seemed nervous. Just to spite the Ojores; Lily just ate about five sweets. Hendrick gives a hard stare to Emily who gives one back to him as she smiles. “You know what Lily has been doing.” He said. Emily shrugged. “Yeah, pretty much. But I have no part in this.” She replied. “You don’t decide on what you say.” Hendrick confirmed. “I don’t have an opinion in this?” Emily asked. “No.” replied Ignis with a smirk. Emily reflected with her own sneer, “Well, screw you. I do have one and you can’t stop me.” She verified. Hendrick narrowed his eyes and pulled out something. “Do you know this?” He asked. Emily’s sneer faded and saw the familiar documents. “Fury Project…” She gasped. Hendrick Ojore mentioned his knows the truth to Lily’s past and knows who she really is. Upon hearing this; Lily watches with a stunned expression, she turns to see Yukta and Dakota smirking at her. Lily turns away. Emily turned to her and whisper, “Easy girl. You’re going to be OK.” Lily nodded. “ANSWER ME--!!” Hendrick demanded but is cut off as Briar uses her abilities to put him in a chokehold with her psychokinesis. “I would appreciate if you didn’t have to raise your voice, Your Majesty. Lily has been through shit, if you do anything to make her scared, I will make you pay for it!” Emily threatened. “You hate us, don’t you?” Hendrick asked in a cold voice. “Let’s just say, I don’t like abusive fathers like you.” Emily said with a dark grin on her face. Emily uses her telekinesis as she took the Fury Project documents, much the clan’s dismay. Emily released him and sat back down. “You try to bring harm to us?” Hendrick thundered. “You think that hurts? YOU JUST WAIT!!!” Emily exclaimed, revealing her Banshee form—much to the horror of the family. That’s when Emily begins to smile as she gestured to Lily and she gets up. “You’re leaving? You’re not walking from this.” Ignis said. Emily laughed, “Oh no, I’m not walking away. I just moved away ‘cause you got a visitor. You’d better duck!” She said. Just then, a HFK soldier flies down and crashes into the table. And then, a voice shouted: “OJOREEEEEEE!!!” Jethro appeared with gritted teeth and holding his weapon. “Jethro…We meet again.” Hendrick said. “Sorry to crash your Mad Tea Party but I got a shit ton of anger.” Jethro said. He had his weapon as he cried, “SHOT LIKE A ROCKET INTO THE SKY, NOTHING IS GONNA STOP ME TONIGHT!!!” Emily smiled as the battle begins. Jethro clashes against the brothers. “You’ve done this before? Wait, aren’t you an assassin? Why go after a bunch of mercenaries like us? Don’t you worry about getting yourself killed?” taunted Ignis. Jethro smiled tightly, “Ha! I got a target on my back, I’m the lone survivor last. You guys got me in your sights. I’m living the dangerous life.” He declared. “I bet you do! Must’ve sucked for ya, doesn’t it?” Yukta said. “You know, big talk. More intense than any anime or video game.” Jethro retorted. “I don’t know what you’re talking about, you need to shut it!” Dakota yelled. Jethro backs off and hides behind a plant to catch his breath. “By the way, you heard of a kid name Gladys?” He managed to say. “Who?” Yukta panted. “The girl, you caused her to be in the hospital.” Jethro reminded. Dakota snickered, “Oh yeah…Pathetic girl. Ha, you wanna hear how many bones were broken? How much beating we gave her?” He said. “No….I want to hear you begging for your lives.” Jethro attacked and jabs them hard. All three brothers spat out a mouthful of blood. Jethro revved his weapon to make it stiffer while moaning, “I’m made of fire, I’m hard wired. I feel invincible!” Boy, those three were shocked but they were not going down as they charged at him. “You are so dead, you CRAZY BASTARD!!!” Yukta shouted. Lily gasped. Emily’s eyes bulged in horror. “Oh shit!” She cried. Just then; there was a ringing sound that was a whistle blown and Mesalina appeared, “STOP RIGHT THERE!!! THE FIGHT—IS OVER!!!” She commanded. “Nice save.” Emily commented. Lily breathed a sigh of relief. “What? We’re just getting starting!” Dakota complained. “In the Rules of Conduct; if your opponent dies is defeated under different circumstances, it is your win. Which means Jethro wins.” Mesalina commented. “That is screwed up! Nothing is gonna stop any of us and you’re gonna tell us it’s over? You must be crazy for making up with these shitty rules, bitch!” Dakota claimed, standing over her in a threatening matter. Sylvia blew the whistle loudly at him, making all three Ojore brothers winced at the noise while Sylvia jabs her finger at them. “Rules are rules. You can’t have what you can’t have.” She said. She then turns away and pulls out her camera to immortalize the data. As Mesalina takes photos while she explains about the Hopeless Fountain Kingdom to Jethro: “The Ojore clan is a powerful and notorious family of mercenary killers, the royal family of its military branch and underworld army and former conquerors until they were overthrown by the countries. The Ojore family consists of powerful and capable warriors, the Ojore three sons are military commanders and utterly remorseless bastards that will help the HFK conquer the world; Ignis, Dakota and Yukta becoming monstrous regal horrors leaving them with only a tiny shred of humanity. They believe that a proper royal should be a strong and powerful warrior who shouldn't bend down to help commoners as it is beneath their dignity, so they're perfectly fine abusing their servants and soldiers. In the case of Hendrick's sons, it's justified, they can't understand why abusing their servants and soldiers would be a bad thing. Worse yet, Hendrick both hammered his beliefs into them and enabled their Royal Brat behavior until they became utter monsters.” Jethro pretended to be surprise, “Wow! How pathetic. It’s too bad that you lost to a ‘loser’ like me isn’t it?” He mocked. As Mesalina was bent over to take pictures, Yukta leered over while attempting to touch her thighs and Mesalina whirled around as her heel stomp on his shoe which Yukta lets out a growl. Emily has an impish grin. 

Tappen was only about 12 years old where she and her family. It was then on this night would changed everything: There was a hard knock at the door so Tappen’s mother went to go answer it and that’s when it happened: Estelle let out a scream, it was all a blur however Tappen and her family were held hostage by Vermissimo Ingerson and his family. Apparently; Vermissimo was supposed to get his money soon by Arpeggius but never did. Arpeggius claimed that he was going to however he was beaten up by Vermissimo, who called him a liar. As punishment; Vermissimo murdered Octavio and the other kids as Estelle and Veronica watched in terror. It was then the sons—Mamon, Beltane, Viorel, Bilal and Wilding took a sick interest in Concesa, Veronica and Ginger so Vermissimo let them have their disturbed fun but only if they don’t kill them. Beltane and Mamon took Ginger while Wilding and Viorel took Veronica—both girls were begging and crying as they were being dragged away. It was then Concesa realized Bilal was standing over her, “Get up dollface! Move!” He demanded. Concesa slowly rose up for she didn’t have a choice. Bilal grabbed her arm, “Don’t try anything!” He started to growl but Concesa pulled away, “GET OFF ME!!! I’M GOING ALL RIGHT?!” She screamed. She glanced at her mother and her father who were torn up but Concesa looked upset as she walked down the hall to the study room. The door shut behind her. “Listen doll, like I said--don’t try anything. I’m a boy who just wants to get laid. Now then…Take off your bandages.” Bilal said. Concesa was nervous and she was going to strip them off quickly to get it over with but Bilal said to her, “Uh-uh. Slowly.” Concesa looked at him, “You’re so desperate aren’t you?” She remarked. Then, she heard screaming and Bilal leered sinisterly: “Looks like they’re having fun.” He said. Painfully upset for her life and her friends; Concesa removed her bandages and stood there, her face red with shame. Bilal’s mouth curved into a smile, “Damn sweetie, you got some scars there. Life’s been good to ya huh?” He retorted. He walked close to her and eyeing her body. Concesa felt herself panting a little with anxiety. “Sa matter? You’re not gonna scream on me, are ya?” Bilal muttered. Concesa shook her head, “Mmm—mmm.” She said but felt tears in her eyes streaming down. Concesa leaned against the wall, she didn’t want to scream but it hurts. Concesa noticed Phyllis, the sister, watching with a blank stare but her eyes filled with tears and she looked away. Later; Concesa, Ginger and Veronica were brought back in their bloodied clothes while crying however they watched as Vermissimo murdered Beryl and Arpeggius as well as Estelle Pryde! It was then Veronica lost her shit, she broke free from her torturers and attacked Vermissimo; pummeling him. She was like a monster, Concesa had never seen her like this. Viorel, Bilal, Mamon, Beltane and Wilding try to stop her however Veronica halted them with her mind controlling powers and said these chilling words: “You said I’m a nobody? Well boys, I’m Veronica Pryde and I’m everything you’re not. It only takes a drop of cruelty to fuck up and make her evil. Think twice before you torture a girl like ME!”


In the meantime; Stan hears Kira’s radio talk show when there was something that shocked him and the others when a caller wanted to say a message. To someone. “Ojore, right?” remarked the caller. Ignis, Dakota, Yukata and their father were frozen in fear. The voice of the caller got darker, “Ignis…Dakota…Yukta….I know you boys can hear me, you’re in deep shit.” He had a leer in his voice, “What we’re looking at is a bounty on your heads. Take a look at what you stole, you’ll learn something interesting about it.” There was something in there that made them scared out of their wits as the caller said, “You have 12 hours to survive, you bring it back or us guys like us Berserkers will cause shit to happen. Since you won’t heed, you won’t survive in this mad game now won’t you ‘cause I know who you are and I saw what you did.” More footages appeared: Lily felt shadows upon her. “You were a dancer right?” asked Yukta. Lily rolls her eyes, “I was one earlier.” She retorted. “Really? Wanna show more of that again?” Yukta said. Lily scoffed with attitude, “Uh, no? I’m tired. Let’s do this some other time, ‘kay? Great. Thanks.” She said. Just then, Dakota grabs Lily by her hair while shouting: “I don’t GIVE A SHIT BITCH!!!” Lily is thrown in the corner and almost hit the pole but found her balance. The music was being played while Lily half hearted sway of her hips while dancing on the pole feebly. She heard the brothers snickering. Dakota spoke up, "That's right...Keep at it...You know, I always thought you were something...Lying to us when you were playing the little ditzy girl. And then, you try to swing at us with that ax, and the way you took on our father like that was crazy but that whole dance you did changed our minds. And we thought Emily was feisty.” Lily rolled her eyes. That’s when Yukta slammed his fist on the wall. "COME ON! YOU CALL THAT EXCITING?! HA, COME ON!!! DANCE BETTER!!!" He exclaimed. Lily felt her vision blur as she angrily kicked those two bastards down and sauntered over to them. She leans in with a smirk. “DANCE TO THIS, TOOL!!!” She exclaimed. She pounced her heeled shoes on their chests hard but not too deep. Ignis grabbed her and tossed her on the other side of the room. Lily looked up to see psychotic looks on Dakota and Yukta’s faces. “You thought that was funny?” demanded Yukta. “Yeah, hilarious.” Lily retorted. Dakota clenched his fist. “You want hilarious? I’ll show you hilarious!” He exclaimed. But all three of them are struck with something that made them feel pain. Lily is confused and looked to see Evita is the one responsible. Lily is astonished that Evita has shot all three Ojore brothers with a syringe. “Wow! Where'd you learn to do that?” She asked. Evita smirked and said, “Useless Talent #37. I got that from Planet Terror.” She flexed her fingers while she helps Lily escaped while Tanith watched them go in amazement…..Kezia woke up, she was horrified as she was held captive by Ignis, Dakota and Yukta who try to break her emotionally as Kezia was bounded while she was scared and begging for mercy however she was not given any. It was a nightmare until she freed herself and escaped with her life depending on it. Once she was safe; Kezia broke down crying from all that happened. However; she is being chased though she does not stop running. She finds a dead end as Yukta and Dakota confront her. “Stay away from me!” Kezia shouted. “Don’t be like that, sweet thing!” Yukta taunted. In her panic; Kezia took a taser she had on her and tries to use it against him. But it didn’t work as he looked unfazed and Kezia learns he wields the powers of electric. Dakota smirked, “Was that supposed to hurt?” He asked. Kezia gasped while the other two brothers laugh…..While Yukta, Dakota and Ignis were facing against monsters; Lily appeared on cue while she gasped dramatically, “OMG! The infamous Ojore family? What a surprise!” She squealed. Yukta grinned, hearts in his eyes. “It’s the cutie!” He exclaimed. Lily beamed with giggles, “Yup, yup! That’s me! You guys look like you’re in need for some fun.” She prattled. Dakota was suspicious, “What do you mean ‘fun’?” He demanded. Lily tapped her finger to her chin, “Well…let’s call it a contest. I mean, it involves with someone who would be interested to see you. Are you willing to play along?” She asked. “Look, we’re not---!” Yukta is about to protest but Ignis stops him and grins, “We love to play along; maybe the price could be you.” He said. Lily was excited, “OK, here all the rules…If you can catch me, I’ll grant you any wish your heart’s desire.” She said. Now this got those brothers’ attention, they had the most disturbed yet vile looks on their faces. “Anything?” Ignis asked. Lily gives him a suggestive glance while beaming with excitement, “Anything you want.” She said. Before the brothers could answer, Lily was already sprinting and they hurried after her! “Oooh! Scary!” Lily squealed with giggles. “You haven’t seen anything yet.” Dakota exclaimed. “When we catch you, we can do anything we want to you right? You’re gonna make us go crazy!!!” Yukta cried. Lily called out: “You’re gonna have to work for it boys!” Lily caused him to not lose sight of her. “You guys are doing good, you make me admire you more~!” Lily said, she kept jumping. “You’re kinda cute when you get all seductive.” Yukta said. Lily uses one of her pigtails to hide her face a little shyly while saying with those big doe eyes, “I could do more than this, if you catch me.” She admitted. “Oh yes…” Dakota moaned. Lily as the three brothers were closing in. Diane shakes her hips while waving, “Come here, boys. I’m wide open!” She teased. “You’re all mine, you bad girl!” Dakota exclaimed. Lily’s innocent doe eyed changed and she jumps from them while shouting: “NOW GUYS!!!” Ignis, Dakota and Yukta were confused. Emily, Jethro, Bonnie, Kynan and Ipsita head out to the battlefield. Just then during the battle; there was music begins to play and all heads turn to see a shocking sight: She wore a red ribbon lace-up corset. There were black flocked rose print panels and solid black ruched panels separated by boning. The deep sweetheart neckline meeting at the opening of the corset where silver tone hook closures hold everything together. Red tank sleeves are worn off the shoulder and wore a green, black, white and blue plaid skirt that has adorable pleats. Lily playfully swing on the pole and she did some faux moves of her arms behind her as she went down as she threw her hair back in a dramatic fashion and twirl on the pole. Lily came back up, hands together on the pole and try to look sexy yet mysterious. Dakota watched intensely with a demure grin on his face. It was then; Lily dropped her knees to the floor and her hands to the sky. Lily tossed her head and bend over backwards while her breasts could be seen but she wasn’t exposed. Jethro grins, “Damn! She’s good.” He admitted. “This was Mesalina’s idea?” Emily demanded. She placed her palms to her forehead, “She’s gone crazy.” She groaned. Lily was doing more dances as Kamoku and Evan were in disbelief. “Is that really Lily?” Kamoku asked. Emily sighed, “Yeah, she tells me it’s all part the plan. I blame Mesalina for this!” She grumbled. It was then Arlow noticed that the three Ojore brothers were distracted for a moment before they broke into violent tendencies of their battles. Arlow is stunned, “She’s arousing them into brutality. I can’t believe this.” He muttered. They had to focus on the battle while Emily encountered Hendrick Ojore who tries to take her on but Emily uses her telekinesis to deflect it. Hendrick, Ignis, Dakota, Yukta and Tanith were shocked at this. “What are you?!” demanded Hendrick with an angry growl. “You will soon find out.” Emily retorted. She dodged him while also taking on the soldiers! Yukta turned and his eyes were in bewilderment at what he was seeing: Lily climbed the pole while swinging her legs in the process and twirls around it. Lily lets her chest bounced up for effect, Yukta had a psychotic grin to his face and mauled all the monsters approaching! He realized this while wondering what’s the hell is going on. During all the battles; Lily hold onto the pole, she bends down seductively and comes back up while shaking her hips. She has a very impish smile on her lips as she notices Ignis watching and he was enthralled by her. Lily grinds her hips against the pole while she clapped her hands to the rhythm. Boy, Dakota looked like he couldn’t take anymore of the inflamed performance….“You can run, and you can hide. But like it or not, I’ll be at your side. Edom Hiroki is full of dread, for Sylver Eden is putting evil thoughts in his head. Hendrick Ojore promises to create the rise of the bloodline – but will he succeed or fall? I’m your follower in the light, yet I’m invisible in the night. I creep, I crawl, and I’m in your walls. So close your eyes and count to ten, better hope you don’t wake up again. Only the brave will survive! 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.  Oh come now! Come one, come all, come see what’s underneath!” And it ends. Meanwhile; Kira Morgan was in downtown and did she window shopping as she admired a pretty dress in the window. When Kira looked in the reflection of the window, her heart dropped. She turned around and saw a blue haired, slim man. “You sent out that to us, didn’t you? You pretended to be some guy but it was wasn’t it?” Dakota growled. Kira shook her head, “No, I never do that. That’s sick to think…” She started to say however Dakota shoved her into the window. “Liar! No one goes against the Ojore family!” He shouted. Kira pushed him away hard and runs off. She found a ladder to the roof and climbed up. Kira try to find a way to get into the building and hide but she saw those three coming so she kept running and she reached the ledge as she saw it was a long way down! Kira lost her balance while she fell but then someone in dark purple came in and saved her. Kira looked to see a statuesque woman with short black hair and she was gorgeous. Rayna smiled, “And you are…?” The woman smiled modestly, “My name is Shiana Izod. A pleasure to meet you, Miss Morgan.” She said as she landed on the roof while having Kira with her. “It seems you boys are barking at the wrong tree.” Shiana scolded. During the battle; Gladys is held hostage by Yukta and Dakota as Ignis threatens to bring great harm to her until Gladys realized those two have powers. She slipped from Yukta’s grasp and touched Dakota’s arm. Then, she used her powers of his at him from her. Yukta is stunned, Ignis couldn’t believe himself either by this sight. Gladys glowed blue while she still felt static shocks through her and incredible strength. “You guys made three mistakes….Mistake number one…You had the wrong hostage. Mistake number two: Your hostage is a Next. And mistake number three…I can copycat anybody’s powers by touch. You picked on people long enough, who’s laughing now?” She grins with excitement, she chased those bastards away until her powers warn off. Thinking quickly; Merlin uses her magic to teleported Kira, Gladys and herself away from there. In the meantime, Lily is at an event where she encounters Tonley and Fazel. Tonley approaches her excitedly. “What’s your name? Where you from?” Tonley asked. Lily was uncomfortable, “A lot of questions.” She retorted. Fazel came to the rescue, “Ease up, Nosy Parker. Sorry, I’m Fazel and this is my partner in crime Tonley. You are?” He said. Lily smiled, “Agent Lily.” She replied. “Agent Lily? The Lovable Psycho of Dream State? You’re her?” Fazel asked, looking stunned. Lily beamed, “Yup.” She said. However; there was trouble and Sylver hid while the guys had their backs turned. But then, there was a voice that said: “Holy crap! That’s them!” Tonley is confused, “Who’s them?” He asked. “It’s those Ojore mercenaries.” Fazel muttered but then realized what he just said. Tonley was stunned, he couldn’t believe it. “What did you say?” He rasped. He was shocked to discover the mercenary brothers were behind him and Fazel. “Faz, you gotta be kidding me!” Tonley said. “Tony, no! For argument’s sake….Don’t even!” Geary whispered in a pleading tone. But Tonley took one peek and what he saw spellbound. When Tonley turned around, he felt his heart pumping fast. “That’s….HFK’s most dangerous….mercenaries?” He thought. Staring at Dakota; Tonley let out a maniacal laugh slowly as Fazel was worried about him. Fazel turned and saw Yukta as he punched him to the wall. Tonley was surprised, Dakota smirked. “You OK Fazzy?” Tonley asked. It was then Fazel lets out a laugh, “I feel great!” He kicked Yukta down and gave him an incision in the process. Fazel licking the blood from Yukta's arm, Yukta yelps and pushes him away. “Oh come on, don’t be like that. Don’t worry, I don’t bite too hard.” Fazel said. Tonley dodged Dakota while laughing in excitement and pounced him. He bites off a chunk of Dakota’s skin from his neck. Tonley cried in pain, he shoves Tonley away. Tonley laughs, “Playing hard to get?” He joked. All of a sudden; Fazel and Tonley both have an X mark on their faces that was a distinctive facial rash across their foreheads and faces. “Shot like a rocket into the sky, nothing can stop me now!” They both cried out. They fought them however Dakota and Yukta took them out. Just then, a rescuer enters the picture. “Why, I'm Artem Payne, the door isn't built yet to hold me back.” Artem said. Lily squealed and embraced him while giving him a brief kiss on the lips. She stole a glance at Dakota who glared at her in disbelief. “You have someone in your life?!” He demanded. Lily releases Artem and faces her enemies, “Sorry Dakota, you may be good looking but you’re not a piece of art.” Lily retorted. “Well, that just breaks my heart.” Dakota growled. A gun was placed at his head, “Anything else that could break?” Dakota turned to see Sturla, “You?! I should’ve known…” He said. “My name is Sturla Mufidy so don’t forget it!” Ganymede said however he was punched in the stomach and fell down. Sturla was held at his will but he was calm when he looked up and grinned. “My girlfriend’s here!” Sturla exclaimed. The three Ojore brothers and turns around, what they saw horrified them. “Andromeda--!?” Dakota exclaimed. “Morena…” Yukta huffed. “Cynthia!” grunted Ignis. The three Carroll sisters sauntered in line. “Hiya boys~!” Mora called in a sing song tone. “What’s a bunch of good looking baddies like you doing in a place like this?” Cynthia purred. “Keep your mitts off my boy!!!!” Andrea exclaimed, using her telekinesis to bring the three of them apart and away from Sturla. Andrea squealed, she embraced Sturla and gave him a quick liplock before she hugged him. “You clever minx! How did you get here?” Andrea cooed. Sturla smiled at her, “Briar helped me out, but then these creeps got me on the ropes. Those two were gonna rip my eyes out.” He explained as he pointed over to Dakota and Yukta. Andrea pretend to pout, “Aww, that’s not nice.” She said. She kissed Sturla on the neck while she caused him to moan. “It seems we haven’t taught you boys to know your place so….Welcome back Ojore....to the Carroll Family! I think it's time to reconfirm our hierarchy.” Andrea said after she gently placed Sturla on the side while facing them. Ignis is horrified, “No….not again…” He begged. However, Andrea is distracted and cocked her head. “Who are you?” She called. The woman and the girl approached.“My name….!!!! Is Anneliese…And this is my daughter Electra.” She introduced her daughter. Electra waved with a toothy grin before she pretends to be snobby. “It’s you.” Yukta growled. Electra turns while she batted her eyes. “Hello, we meet again.” She replied. She pulls out her reliquary and summons her Nightmarchers. Lily is stunned however Anneliese approached her. “Are you Agent Lily?” She asked. “Yes ma’m.” Lily replied politely. “Here, come by my house. Let’s get somewhere comfortable, shall we?” Anneliese said with a wink and off they went! Later; Lily meets with Anneliese in the courtyard and there she learns from her that she is her mother. Her name was Viceroy Anneliese Kaprav! Electra’s full name is Electra Kaprav! What’s even more Lily is the heiress to the city of New Americana. Angry; Lily refuses Anneliese’s prophecy and leaves however Emily learns about this and knows Anneliese has been through a lot. So they both talked to Lily: Lily believes Anneliese wants her out of Dream State but Anneliese is not doing that, she heard of good things about Dream State and the agents. “Please Lily, just give this a chance. Do it for you dreams, for your friends, for me. Please?” Emily begged. Lily thought back about how Emily believed in her so she decided to do so and they all worked out a plan. Later, Lily is singing to herself: “Twinkle, twinkle little bat. How I wonder where you’re at. Up up up the world you fly, like a tea tray in the sky….When the Red Queen loses her head, when the Cheshire Cat comes upon us all. Then it shows how mad we are, twinkle twinkle all those tears…Then the White Queen on the throne, thanks you for the war to end. She did not know which soldier to choose, if she knew she was gonna lose…Though I don’t know who you are, twinkle twinkle little bat….I’m a little dormouse, sleep as heck. Here are my riddles, here is my tail. What I say in my sleep is nonsense. Put me in the pot and let me rot….The futsy, putsy birdy was laying her blue eggs; here comes a giantess and the birdy squawks for help. She said it’s a serpent but she’s sadly mistaken! And the futsy, putsy birdy went back to laying her eggs….Ring around the Mushroom, pocketful of sweet treats. Eat me, drink me, don’t know which one…. Ring around the Mushroom, what do you suppose we can do about the Bandersnatch in which we die?....Ring around the Mushroom, the Jabberwocky---he knows me. Flowers surround me, I can’t escape…I am the Walrus, I am the Carpenter and we killed a bunch of oysters. The time has come to butcher all the clams in the sea, that time has come now!....Here comes the Turtle, crying his eyes out. Why couldn’t he join the dance my dear? They mocked him, he wasn’t comforted and thus the Mock Turtle cried his eyes out….Can you see me? Can you see me? Cheshire Cat, Cheshire Cat. Lost in the wilderness, lost in the wilderness. We’re all mad, we’re all mad…The duchess had a cute baby, cute baby, cute baby. The duchess had a cute baby and abuses that poor kid. She throws that little infant boy, that little infant boy, that little infant boy. She throws that little infant boy for being so darn loud! The baby turns into a little pig, a little pig, a little pig. The baby turns into a little pig for it is cursed! The duchess is an ugly hag, ugly hag, ugly hag. The duchess is an ugly hag and doesn’t give a darn!...God save us from the Queen, sweet mercy from our vicious queen. O thee to be! Witness the heads that roll, madness bloody undertone. All tyranny we fear of her, her death is to be burned. Her reign is a wrath to us, down the Evil Queen….” In the meantime; Jethro had finished an exciting story but yawned. “OK, that’s enough. Now, get to bed.” He said. “Come on, Jethro! Tell that story one more time! Please?” Kamoku begged. “Naw Makun, I’m exhausted. Just get some sleep.” Jethro groaned. “But I love it, how the enemy had you on the ropes and…and…you turn the tables…” Kamoku ranted. Jethro give him a death stare, “Kamoku, I’m glad you liked that story but I need sleep so I’ll tell you more about it in the morning. Good night!” Kamoku pouted and his mood dampen however he smiled as he thought about the story before he drifted to sleep. Dark at night while everyone slept; Ipsita was taking a walk by the beach, hearing the waves of the ocean when he thought he heard singing. He followed the voice to a lighthouse and entered to see a girl singing. He tried to communicate to the girl but she runs away terrified, “Wait! I don’t want to hurt you! Come back!” Ipsita called. But it was too late, she was gone! In the meantime; Lily sneaks towards the villains’ hideout and spied on them as she uses her Moneta and got clear, perfect shots of Edom Hiroki with the Ojore family. Lily almost screamed but it came out as a soft, squeal-like gasp. “I knew it!!!!” She rasped excitedly. And took the picture. Lily giggled with glee as she managed to get away. Afterwards, Lily showed the pictures to Emily who is shocked. “You are so bad.” She said. “But it feels so good~!” Lily squealed, “You know, I hate sleazy yet sadistic journalists and reporters who want to ruin innocent lives of such celebrities and other people however I’m doing this against evil war-machines and domineering bastards!” Lily let out a maniacal laugh as she was going to broadcast this over tomorrow’s tabloid and boy, it was going to make headlines for sure! The next day; Hendrick was tense however Tanith noticed something slipped in the slot of the door and goes to the door to see. She finds an enveloped folder and picks it up, she opened it and what she saw she could not comprehend: Tanith returned to hand her father who asked, “What is it?” Tanith sighed, “There’s something in there you have to see.” She admitted. Hendrick Ojore took the folder and looked in it to see photos of their meeting with Edom Hiroki on the front page of the tabloids! Judge was fuming with anger and turned to his daughter in a scary voice: “Get your brothers, get Edom Hiroki…I want everyone here IMMEDIATELY!!!” So, there was a meeting going on between Hiroki and Ojore as Lily watched this with the MPD in sadistic pleasure. However; Hiroki believes Hendrick snitched on Dream State, Hendrick is appalled and claims that he’s telling the truth. Edom instructed his soldiers to cuff Dakota and Yukta iron cuffs as they did so, surprising the two in the process. Hendrick, Tanith and Ignis are shocked by this. Judge demands to know what’s going on, Edom tells him: “You will only speak the truth, deceive me and your sons will suffer something greater close to death.” Hendrick was shocked, “You wouldn’t! Those are my sons!” He claimed. Edom has reports that Hendrick had been forced with information given to by someone. Confused; Hendrick begged Edom he has no knowledge, but Edom thinks he’s lying as he instructs his men, “Do it.” The iron cuff causes the wrists to be sliced open with intense burning pain. That’s exactly what happened to Yukta as he howled in agony. Tanith is appalled, Ignis was in dismay. “Stop it, he’s my youngest son.” Whimpered Hendrick. “Then answer me truthfully, Your Majesty.” Edom stipulated. “I am!!!! I have not betrayed anyone of giving information to the enemy!” Hendrick cried. Edom stared at him and then commanded to his other guard, “Do it once more to the other.” The cuff causes Dakota’s wrists to be sliced open with intense burning pain. He screamed, groaning by the cuff. Edom continued with the reports as Hendrick was under a trance and then, Hendrick suddenly remembered when Edom said this and he tells the truth. Once Edom learns what happened; he allows his lieutenant to give out the command to release Dakota and Yukta. Watching all this, Lily almost feels sorry for Hendrick who wept for his sons however she still thought all of them were scum…Even Edom Hiroki! For the time being; Emily is pressured by the intensity however Jethro decides to get reinforcements and found some familiar faces: Kevin, Georgette, Dawson, Taylor, Jennifer, Theo, Cecelia, Tatsu, Carmen, Kierce, Samael, Awilda, Chikere, Herushii, Citara, Kakuda, Derek, Mankuri, Noreen, Destin, Hiromi, Pancho, Rinah, Bess, Megan, Colt, Riley, Kaius, Tim, Arthur, Dennis and Sean!
