  Mister and Zeek were toe to toe and nose to nose. Zeek had never been more angry at Mister in all of the years that he had been with him. He just couldn't believe the audacity of this guy to actually track him down and interrupt his personal time in such a disrespectful and childish way. There were few lines that Mister hadn't crossed already, but this one just took the cake.

  "Don't f*cking look at her that way, in fact...don't f*cking look at her at ALL!" Zeek screamed in Mister's face. Mister just laughed and said, "it's nothing new, I've seen it all before...been all up in it before too," Hallie thought Zeek was going to actually go mad at this point. He looked as though he was on the complete brink of insanity when Mister said that shit out of his mouth.

  Zeek's eyes turned stone grey and his face was beet red. He suddenly looked up at Mister in the strangest way. He held Mister's stare and he seemed to be changing on the inside somehow. Miste

    Everyone at Georgio's compound was enjoying a beautiful breakfast together. They all ate and drank while they laughed and talked. Della sat very close to Deena and Cat. She smiled and interacted some, but Joy could tell that her daughter was still not quite herself. She was still so distant and she looked so sad. Her face was smiling, but her eyes just were not. She was also not eating very well and her face was really flushed. Joy started to suspect that her daughter had something to hide. She watched her look up at Caine like she had really missed him, and then look back down again really fast. It was as though she wanted to go to him, but there was something stopping her. "Della, would you like some toast?" Her mother asked her nonchalantly. "Sure mom," Della said as she took the plate from Joy and sat it down in front of her on the table. Joy continued to watch Della try to hide the fact that she didn't feel well. Joy started to t

    Pearl and Justin were hiding under the hay wagon behind the stables. They thought that they were completely alone, and that was exactly the way they wanted it. Justin had snatched a silk tablecloth and loaded a quick basket of goodies and a bottle of champagne while the two queens were having words at the gala. He figured that if everyone was running away anyhow, that nobody would miss them, so he loaded his bounty up and grabbed Pearl by the wrist. He didn't even give her a chance to ask any questions. Luckily she trusted him and she went along for the adventure. They ran together hand and hand, giggling like a couple of school kids. They came to the stables and looked for the best possible spot and wound up there, under the wagon. They spread their cloth out and got comfortable with their alchohol. It took a while for everything to die down and everyone to leave but they had a great time getting drunk and people watching until then. Pearl

  • The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky    This Could Be Bad

    Justin could hear the struggle outside of the cave and he was so scared. He thought he heard some dogs fighting as well but he wasn't about to go and see. Pearl told him to stay there and that's what he was gonna do. It didn't take very long for the noise to die down and it got completely silent. It wasn't too long before dawn, so Justin sat and watched the sun come up over the treetops before he decided to go look for Pearl. He stuck his head out of the cave opening and he squinted his hung over eyes to try to survey the landscape and decide on which way to go. He crawled out of the cave into the sunlight and stretched his body as hard as he could. He tried to focus his eyes but it took a few seconds to get it done. He yelled Pearl's name and then listened for sound. Nothing. He started making his way towards the back of the stables to check under the hay wagon. It seemed probable enough. He muttered to himself as he shuffled his fee

  • The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky    Zeek And Hallie

    After Mister had let go of Hallie and turned on Pearl, Hallie took the opportunity to run. She ran so hard and so fast that when she finally stopped to look around, she realized that she had no idea of where in the hell she even was. She just knew that she was deep in the forest. Deeper than she had ever been before. She backed herself up to a big tree and she slid down onto her butt. She sat there in the dark trying to listen for any sound at all. She could still hear the wolf and Mister fighting somewhere behind her. She took a deep breath and she started to cry. She could hear the wolf howl and cry out in pain from somewhere in the distance and then there was total silence. Hallie stared into the darkness and tried not to make a sound. She suddenly started to hear the treetops rustle and she could smell the horrible stench of Queen Lacey Losedraws, and her nasty little family all in the air around her. She gagged and covered her mouth an

  • The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky    It's Time To Come Clean

    Della had been worked over at the hospital and settled in for the night by the time that Joy and everyone else had finally caught up to her. Joy rushed down the corridor and went straight for Della's door. The nurse stepped in front of her and motioned Joy to the side for a private conversation. Joy understood what the nurse wanted and she complied. When they were out of earshot of the others, the nurse introduced herself to Joy and explained to her that Della had fainted because she was extremely malnourished, to the point of almost losing her baby. Joy kind of just stood there with a dumb look on her face as the nurse continued to scold her. The nurse finally took a moment to notice Joy's present state and she asked her if she was alright. Joy simply shook her head yes. The nurse said, "good," and then she finished scolding her. When the nurse was finished, she simply walked away and left Joy standing alone in the hallway with the same stupid look on he

  • The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky    Mister's Just Desserts

    Mister woke up naked and covered in blood and sweat. He was laying just off of the back trail in the dead sun and his chest hurt so badly that it was hard for him to breathe. He rolled over and tried to sit up but his head was pounding as well. He felt weak and he was extremely confused. He rubbed his temples and tried to clear his head. He was so hungry and dehydrated that he felt like he was going to puke. It was a good thing that the doctor had sent people looking for him, because he didn't think he was going to make it much longer, when he heard them coming towards him. He was actually kind of pissed off that it had taken them as long as it had. He managed to sit up long enough to half ass throw a stick to get their attention. Lucky for him that was just enough to do the trick. "Over here!" Mister heard one of his men shout back to the others. The rescuers all made their way through the thick brush that was concealing Mister's battered

  • The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky    Where is Joy

    Della sat quietly and cried for a moment while everyone looked on in utter suspense. "Della, come on!" Joy finally fussed at her daughter as she stood up and took the paper from her. Joy read the results, and with tears in her eyes she happily told Caine that he was going to be a father. Della was four weeks pregnant. She had been taken just a little over two weeks ago, so that meant that she was definitely pregnant already when she had been kidnapped. Everyone was laughing and crying at the same time and hugging one another over and over again. Della took the phone and she cried to Caine. "I'm so sorry," She told him, "I just didn't know what to do. I'm so super happy that this baby is yours but how can I ever be sure that he didn't touch me that night? What if I slept with him while I was pregnant with your child? Oh Caine how can you ever forgive me?" She started to sob uncontrollably again. Deena reached over and snatched th

  • The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky    Please Try To Understand

    Becky was so angry inside. She just didn't understand why her life had to be so hard all of the time. She didn't see why her mother had to die or why she was basically hidden away after she had survived. She just couldn't wrap her mind around any of it, especially the part that made her such a dirty little family secret. "Calm down my child," the queen said to her as she stretched her hand out to take Becky's hand in hers. Becky didn't respond to her great grandmother. Instead she roared a painful and hollow cry and she flew against the window as hard as she could in an effort to fly away from the painful scene in front of her, but the windows had all been reinforced somehow to prevent this sort of thing with the genetically altered animals. She hit the window with so much force that it bounced her off of the glass and she flew completely across the lab, and she bounced off of the opposite wall as well. She finally landed on the floor at th

    Della and Queen Rebecca were having wine together privately in the Queen's rooms. Della tried to cheer her sister up, but she wasn't exactly sure yet about why she was so sad at the moment. Della was mid-sentence when a knock came at the door. She stopped what she was saying and got up to answer it. It was Caine, he didn't really say anything as he handed her the note that Cat had left for her, and he walked away. Della looked a little confused as she read the note silently to herself, and then she looked up at her sister with big, sad, knowing eyes. Queen Rebecca couldn't hold it in anymore and her tears started to fall all on their own, as she stared at the floor in silence. Della didn't say a word as she quickly crossed the room and took her sister in her arms. She just held her and rocked her gently as she cried. When she was finished crying, Della wiped her sister's tears away and told her to smile anyways. Even though it hurt to the bone, she still

  • The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky    Confusion

    Cat was in a wonderfully happy mood when she entered her and Josh's rooms and found him on the phone talking to someone feverishly. Cat stood quietly in the doorway with a glass of afternoon wine in her hand, and she listened as she tried to figure out just what in the heck the problem was. Josh hung the phone up and he turned to greet her. "Everything okay?" She asked him in a concerned manner. "Not really, I think I'm going to have to go home and deal with some things at the club. It probably wouldn't hurt for you to go look after your record store, too," Josh explained to her cooly. He had been pretending not to notice how close her and Queen Rebecca had been becoming lately, but there was no real way that anyone could be that blind. Their relationship had been cooling off quite a bit because of it. Cat tried to look like it didn't bother her to leave the castle and the queen, but Josh could see right through it. He didn't say much, just that

  • The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky    Don't Do It

    Joy had beaten Georgio's men to Uncle Benny's disgusting ass compound by at least fifteen minutes, so by the time that anyone made it there to stop her, she had already hung Uncle Benny from the ceiling by his wrists on a large pair of hooks that she had brought in her bag. She was calmly singing her song and unpacking her torture bag neatly onto a nearby table. The dirty little man was crying and begging for her to stop. Little did he know, that was just making things even worse for him. She heard the helicopter coming in and landing outside. The one that she thought was carrying Georgio's men, but she never waivered. She heard the men rush the house and discover all of the bad guys that she had just swept out, room by room, but she kept right on singing and preparing her tools. She never even missed a beat. She heard the men commenting and remarking on the sheer savageness of what they were seeing. That made her smile. She knew that they would

  • The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky    Joy Goes Home

    It had been two weeks since the funeral for Mister, Pearl, and Queen Esmeralda. Caine and the others had stood guard over, and reorganized everything. It had all been running like a well oiled machine, except for the fact that nobody had seen Justin the whole time. It was the common assumption that he had just left after Pearl's death. Caine had people search for him, but there was no trace of him anywhere, so he assumed what everyone else did, and they gave up. Joy had appointed a new head chef under the advisement of Kate and Sadie and everyone just moved on. It had actually been a completely blissful two weeks for everyone, it almost felt like a real vacation. They spent a lot of time together and made a ton of great memories. They ate to much and drank way, way to much, and they became way to comfortable in the castle life, but like all good things...it was about time for it all to come to an end. Joy's father had called her and demanded a me

  • The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky    Saying Goodbye

    It had been three days since they had lost Mister and Pearl, and four days since the loss of Queen Esmeralda. The air was thick with sadness as they prepared to say goodbye to them all. The castle and it's grounds were all decorated in black and silver, shrouded in a thick layer of despair, and coated with the bitter sweet feeling of definate change. Kate and Sadie had been appointed head housekeepers but their duties were suspended for a few days, in light of them being directly related to one of the deceased. Della, Cat and Joy tried their best to cover for them, but in the end Kate decided that she wanted her and Sadie to be the one's to coordinate it all because they knew Pearl best and they had been there the longest, so they wanted everything perfect. Everyone was gathered on the gala grounds, dressed in their most dramatic garb. It was a perfectly dreary day for it to. It was grey and overcast, and there was a light sleet hang

    "Missing?!" The queen looked up and asked Caine in confusion, "what do you mean...missing?" She cried in despair. "I mean exactly what I said, my queen," Caine started to explain to her, "Josh and I went out into the hall and they were not laying where you left them, so we started looking for them and trying to follow their trail. We found bloody drag marks along with some huge wolf prints, and we followed them as far as they went," Caine said in a suspicious tone. The queen didn't say anything for a few seconds. She kind of just stared at him blankly. After a moment she finally blinked her eyes and asked him sarcastically, "well where did they end?" Caine got a far away look on his face and then he said, "well that's the strange part. They ended at the edge of the cliff over the ocean side of the mountain. It's almost like they jumped off of the cliff or something." Queen Rebecca sat up straight and her eyes got wide. "There's no way they

    Mister and Pearl were both so pissed off that it was damn near impossible to hide it. Pearl took a deep breath and she tried to maintain her composure. She thought carefully about her words before she opened her mouth to speak. "My queen," Pearl started to speak, "I have been a loyal and faithful employee of this castle for more than twenty years now. I will admit that I am not always perfect, however, I beg you to understand that everything that I have ever done was with the best interest of Mister and this castle in mind," Pearl said eloquently as she batted her thick eyelashes. Queen Rebecca looked Pearl up and down for a moment thoughtfully and then she turned her attention to Mister. "And you?" She said to him in an authoritative manner. Mister looked as though he was about to actually explode right there on the spot. Queen Rebecca wanted to laugh at him so bad, but she fought the urge, and she swallowed the laughter back. He stood the

  • The Dark Mysteries Of Castle Free Sky    After The Storm

    Mister and Pearl became panicked when they saw the weather changing like that. They transformed immediately when they stepped out into the raging wind. "It's happening!" Pearl cried out. The two wolves began to howl and wail, which made the other animals in the stables start up too. The wolves paced back and forth, following the force field, looking for a way out. Any way out at all. The two of them became so desperate to escape that they began ramming their bodies against the invisible force field as hard as they could, slamming themselves so hard that they were actually bouncing off of it and landing on their sides a few feet away. They did this over and over again until the wind stopped blowing and the trees had finally come to a rest. Pearl was so broken hearted at the moment, that she didn't even bother to get up the last time she hit the wall. She just laid there and whimpered for a while. Mister crawled over and he laid on top of her, in a

    The queen hugged her great grandson while she tried to explain, but he just didn't want to hear it, so he pulled away making her cry even harder. "So you're telling me that now you have to die because I lost the duel?" He asked her in total disbelief and anger. "No, Mister, I'm not exactly going to die, just change forms one last time," she tried to comfort the already crying man, but he could not be comforted. "My spirit will be in the wind, and the snow, and the rain, the sunshine and every single flower you will ever see," the queen told him tenderly as she wiped the tears from his chin with her ancient, snow white hand. Mister and Pearl wailed and howled and begged her to stay, but no matter what, they could not change fate. They asked her what would become of them after she was gone and she told them that was up to Princess Rebecca now. They were even more distraught after they heard that answer. The queen hugged them one last time and told them that she l
