"I need to see her!" Allura yelled at Perses, who was now guarding outside of a room --
That was Jane's room.
"I'm sorry, but I cannot let anyone in." Perses replied with a stone-cold tone, not moving even a little bit, "It's the Queen's order."
"..." Allura opened her mouth but she couldn't find anything to say.
Why would the Queen set a guard on Jane's room? Did the Queen not believe that Jane wasn't Kitty, just like her?
"Anwar!" Allura pulled out her phone, staring at Perses with fire in her eyes, "Where are you?!"
"Back at the bar." Theia's lazy voice came through. She was in every way more similar to the Queen than Allura ever was, even the annoying lazy tone.
"Why aren't you here in the castle?!" Allura screamed, "You should be with Perses all the time, should you not?!"
"Why would I do that?" Theia was still all annoying and slow, with a shred of amusement in her voice now, "Mother can handle him."
"You--!" Allur
"You said that he has been through it before," Jane finally filled in the silence, "Three times no less. How did he do that? Couldn't he just do that again?""It's different." Allura shook her head, "It consumes on one’s body a lot for anyone to just be chained up all day long and fed with only water and little food. The Bone Carve -- the piercing injury happens every 48 minutes, and today...""Today?" Jane tilted her head, looking at Allura with confusion."He was given the gift of the forest, the -- why am I telling you all these?! Don't you know already?!" Allura suddenly burst out, "It's already full moon now, the torture has started. Do you really not care about him?!""Well." Jane shrugged and said only that word.She looked around and pulled out a chair for Allura -- she was looking for a place to sit. She sat down calmly on the table and nodded at Perses, who then bowed in a stiff way and left the room with the door closed."We
Clock ticking became so loud after the room fell in silence.Allura stood there, frowning; Jane was still sitting in the chair, except now, the annoying teasing look was wiped off from her face."W-what do you mean?" Allura rose her voice, but even that attempt couldn't hide the panic in her voice."You wanted me to lie to the Queen," Jane reminded her, "I don't assume that's such a symbol of loyalty?""Hmph!" Allura stormed towards the door, but she couldn't open it --Perses held on the door nub tight from outside, and apparently, they didn't want her to leave."What do you want! Let me out!" Allura yelled."Like I said," Jane smiled, "I want the truth.""You have no right to keep me here!" Allura burst out."You actually don't have any right to be here in the first place." Jane didn't even flinch."Your guard attacked me first," Allura smirked, "I was only defensing myself. Who do you think the Queen would list
Leaving Jane's room, Allura had no idea what just happened.Did she just openly betray the Queen? And told a witch that either was no other but her rival in love, or a thief who just came out of nowhere and was loyal as hell to the Queen?!Whichever it was, she could no longer hide herself anymore. And quite frankly, she didn't want to either.She wanted to break free. She had been longing for that for a long time now. But with not enough power against the Queen, there was no place that she could go to, and no one to go with.At least now, there were companies that had to try break free. And quite frankly, she had a blind confidence in them.Or maybe, there just wasn't any other who were stupid enough to stand against the Queen.What should she do now?She wanted to help Erebus, but if Jane really was Kitty, then it seemed that she didn't have to worry about it. But what if she really wasn't? What if Jane was just another ruthless wit
It was the second time Jane walked into the court room, and still she felt like she wasn't ready, so see Erebus handed by the chain with nothing but blood stains all over him.The man didn't give any indication that he was still alive when Jane walked over and stood in front of him.Jane put the water by his mouth, and he frowned.Then it was like someone lit fire behind his eyes, he suddenly stood up straight, forgetting to even drink the water --It took only a look in her eyes for him to know -- she was Kitty!Warped dead skin covered his dry lips, but he just stood there, staring at Jane."..." He opened his mouth but he couldn't say anything. His eyes were anxious and he tried to pull on the chain --It was just instinction, of course he couldn't do anything about it."Have some water first." "the maid" said.He didn't move. He didn't have any response other than staring at her with his mouth open."I have he
"Are you ready?" The Queen asked with a gentle smile.She just brought Jane over from her room a moment ago, to the door of the court room.Of course she was informed that Allura broke in and met with Jane last night. But Jane never get out of the door, according to her loyal puppet Perses, and the window's spell was still intact.So she choose the court room, to finish her huge spell -- creating the new wand."Are you excited?" The Queen asked before she opened the door."Yes, of course." Jane held a heavy magic book to her chest, standing right besides the Queen."Stupid girl." The Queen shook her head and turned to look at Jane, "Do you know of the term 'Shrodinger's cat'?""No..." Jane said hesitately with a thinking look on her face. She wasn't in school for long."It's a metaphor. When you put a cat in a sealed box, the air is bound to run out at some point. But you never know whether the cat is still alive or not at any
Jane looked up at the Queen with a confused look, and the Queen burst out in laugh as if heard a funny joke."You really think you had me, hua?" The Queen played the wand in her hand, "That I should believe some little witch out of nowhere just happened to kill my biggest enemy by accident?""You think I'm Kitty?" Jane asked, held her hands up high."I know you are." The Queen laughed, "I wanted to see how you plan to save him, and also, I do want your magic creating the wand because there is no better material to be the soul of my wand other than the brilliant creation of your mom, and your power is the best bridge for the infusion."Jane nodded: "That's why you gave the wand back to me."The Queen smiled: "You hid well for a while. I almost lost you. That would be very unfortunate. But now --""Now?" Jane asked."Now, I don't really need you." The Queen said, "Please tell me you killed the little Prince? Otherwise it might be a bit
The Queen wheeled on the voice, and though lived for hundreds of years, she was shocked speechless.The whole room was still silent, only Allura whispered --"Perses?!""That's not possible!" The Queen turned to Kitty, "I just checked his spell the other day --"A smile crawled on to Kitty's lips."You little brat!" The Queen yelled, but she couldn't say anything more.Kitty got her to say that she put a spell on Perses, which was already bad enough. She couldn't afford to make any more mistakes.Though she was the Queen, she couldn't afford to against with the whole nation.The room was still in silence, waiting for a better answer."You went beyond your authority to call for this meeting," The Queen took a deep breath and put on her calm mask, "I would have called for one, if he had any intention to speak for himself.""How do you know that he doesn't?" Kitty said."A maid was assigned to deliver food and
Erebus slept for three days after he got back to his city.For three days, it was Perses instead of Kitty who was waiting right outside of his room on the sixtieth floor.Kitty put a protection and a soothing spell before she left the hotel, but no one knew to where.She only ordered the kitchen to make sure delivering meals on time, and take back if Erebus was still sleeping --No one was to bother him.That was Kitty's order.Perses watched food taken to the door, waiting for an hour and then taken away, feeling anxious inside him that was eating him away.He was put under a spell for a long time, and getting his mind back also got back his ability to feel --Which was not the best thing to have right now because it meant only guilty for now.The past years was like a dark shadow that he couldn't even recall clearly, but some actions stuck and one of them, was him killing thousands of people before he took on the alpha
