The half of me Chapter 32

Chapter 31

I knew that I wasn't the best person to go and face a murderer, that I was incapable of defending myself as I should. I had no training, never went with a pepper spray. Rosenschwarz was a town where it was not very common to get attacked when everyone knew each other. The things that happened in Rosenschwarz were, in the end, the gossip of everyone. Maybe that's why Grace chose Colville for Daliah to have the worst time of her life, nobody knows you, it's a city with a lot of people with a lot of problems that maybe one or two only care about you, but if you're with the wrong person, give up.

I'm also not going to be able to talk to my parents about everything I've discovered about Daliah. The secrets that the family kept from me. I had never felt more isolated than ever. They could have told me with the promise not to tell Daliah that I knew, at least so I wouldn't find out ten years later that I have a nephew. Nephew that I will never get to know. And surely I'm going to miss a lot of things after tonight: Seeing my friends again, seeing Seo-ah open her eyes, thanking Mike for the computer program. Although what I will miss the most will be talking to Jake again. In the end I couldn't tell him to do me the favor of sending the files to Inspector Lang, at least I know he won't be as aggressive as Elliot.

Jake…

I didn't want to risk something happening to you again. Did you think I was going to do it? You did a lot for me and I want you to stay alive, safe from the FBI. Coming to Rosenschwarz is not an option for him and I would love for him to see his sisters one day. Missing that opportunity will only make you regret it in the end.

I've gone back to my apartment to change my clothes, something with more camouflage so no one will recognize me, but maybe I need something else. I pick up a kitchen knife and look at my reflection. Would it be too dangerous to carry a weapon? Will I be able to defend myself well with this? I just hope she's not carrying a gun or I'm done for, though if she killed Daliah with her bare hands, I don't think she does. I keep it in my pants pocket, being careful not to hurt myself. "You know you're going to die if you go, right?" The Daliah from my imagination tells me worried. After everything I've read, I see her again as my sister from before “Don’t think that carrying a knife can change things.” "You said to finish it" I answer, picking up the mask ", and that's what I'll do." “Sacrificing yourself is not the right option.” "Not sacrificing Jake again either" I run my thumb over the butterfly of pebbles, remembering that it is a gift to see him “. And I'm not going to let her kill him.” "We're talking about a guy who's two heads taller than Grace." Daliah approaches me, crossing her arms "What makes you think she could take him?" "She'll get angry and kill Jane" I put on my mask and my jacket, pulling up my hood “, she will talk to me.” “No, she won't and you know it.” "Jake can't miss a chance to one day live a normal life, Daliah" I walk to the door, ready to leave “. I have lived enough.” I see that she has disappeared and I sigh. I hope it's the last time I sees her.

I leave the apartment adjusting my hood better. I feel my heart racing and my hands sweaty. I want to mentalize that I will surely die and so will Jane. We will both lose our lives tonight. But if I can fight to go on living, I'll try. In my head I only think about the last conversation with Jake. I haven’t been able to say goodbye correctly, I have left him talking to himself. Although if I say goodbye with a message, it may worry him even more. I'm not going to see him again. I will never hear his voice again, calling me 'love'. His eyes looking at me as if I were the only one in his life. And he had promised to kiss me again when I was well. I’m not going to receive those kisses that made me tremble so much and feel happy. I want to change. I want to be another MC. Take the reins and say 'Here I am'. I won't let Grace intimidate me, I've had enough of her manipulating me with her words.

Little by little it is noticeable that I am leaving the town, there are fewer and fewer houses and shops. It becomes deserted and empty areas, surrounded by silence. A silence that is terrifying. I hold on tightly to my jacket, preventing the cold from penetrating my body. I'm already pretty frozen knowing I'm going to die. I'll be meeting with Daliah shortly. All this time I've been looking for her killer and now I'm going straight to her. I start by going out onto the road, taking the turnoff for the lake. Surely they know what time the police should come to prowl or I don't think she took such a risk to meet us there. She has it all planned. Calculated. She is a true psycho who made an innocent believe that she was her friend. She even managed to trick me because she knew I was going to trust her. Damn, it's always going to be like this. They always end up fooling me because they can see that I'm naive. How could Daliah say that I'm amazing when I'm a stupid who believes everything? It has always been like this. But I'm going to set the record straight tonight. I manage to see the lake in the distance and a van with its lights on. I take out my phone and call Carter, putting the phone back in my pocket. Grace said not to tell anyone, but someone has to know what's going on.

I reach the lake after accelerating my pace, staying a few meters from the van. I see Grace inside her, looking at me coldly. But she doesn’t intimidate me. Or at least I try. “I've already made it to the lake like you asked, Grace.” I say out loud, so that I can be heard on the phone. I feel someone grab my wrist and pull my arm back. I let out a grunt of pain, feeling a breath on the back of my neck. “Phone, now.” Ralph whispers in my ear. <<Shit, has he been following me?>> I pull out the dangling cell phone quickly, handing it to Ralph. "Good girl." he says, giving me a kiss on the cheek. I wipe my face in disgust as he walks away, leaning against the car. Grace gets out of the van and stands next to Ralph, crossing her arms. “I'm glad to see that until the end you are always obedient MC.” Grace giggles, as if it seemed funny to her “Does anyone else know you're here?” “No” I lie. Jake and probably if he has heard it, Carter “, and Jane?” “She's inside” she nods toward the van “, taking a nap.” "Let her go, she doesn't have to do-" “Our father had a list” Ralph begins to explain. I look at them both. Ok, so they really are siblings. Great. two blood madsiblings “and on that list, the only ones left to die were Daliah, Jane, and you.” "And that's what you do?" I look at them both, furious "To finish the job of a psychopath?" "Who was our father." Grace takes a step forward, straight at me. Her eyes flash with fury “. He was the most important person in our lives and you took him away from us.” "He killed children!" I exclaim incredulous to hear her talk about Krebs like that “How can you tell me that he was important in your lives?! What if he then killed you guys?!” "He would never have done that." Ralph gets defensive, giving me a cold look “, he was the best father we could ever have when our mother died, always watching over us, that we didn't lack anything. Much better than Armando.” His words make sense. That is why in the chat with Daliah he repeated that he was not his father. I avoid making a gesture of reaching for the knife, for now it is better to wait. My phone rings and I freeze. Is it Carter? Did he call me to find out what’s going on? “Nymos” Ralph says with a laugh “, what a ridiculous name.” "It must be Jake." I look surprised at Grace, who looks at me with a smile “Did you think Daliah and I hadn't talked about this? All the time she was like 'I care about MC, Jake is not good for her' or 'Because of Jake, MC is doing illegal things, And if they put her in jail too?’” she puts on a silly voice, like she wants to imitate Daliah “Why do you think we avoided talking by message? We knew you could look at our chats. So I always preferred to be careful.” I lower my head, unable to see his face. Damn Daliah, couldn't you shut up about this? I guess Grace made her talk somehow, I don't think she really was capable of giving it away out of hand. "Come on, don't do that, I've been good enough not to tell the FBI anything" is getting closer to me, walking around me “, his name is safe with us” she places her hands on my shoulders ". For now.” I separate from her with a slap, walking backwards.

I look at both of them now worried about Jake's identity. They keep playing psychologically with my fear. Ralph tosses the phone into the air, catching it in midair. He seems amused with this situation. "How could you dare to make the video for Daliah's funeral with everything you did to her?" I raise my voice, looking into his eyes. I must put fear aside and face it. "It was satisfying to do it" he throws the phone one last time, but this time he drops it to the ground and stomps on it hard “. I laughed while making the video, remembering how she apologized while squeezing her neck hard” my breath hitches when I hear him and I remember the camcorder I received, the audio from the phone “. And going to her funeral was even more fun, she was finally where she had to be: dead.” I take a step toward him and Grace stops me, grabbing my arm. I try to break free, but she holds me tighter. I grit my teeth looking at her now. I could with my other hand grab my knife now, but she's too focused on me, I need a distraction. "Was Daliah necessary to be tortured all these years?" I look at Grace and then at Ralph, remembering what he did to her "You didn't have to wreck her life like that!" “Believe me, it disgusted me more to have to be with her at first, pretending that I liked her” Ralph makes a disgusted face, crossing his arms “But when I finally got to say how much I hated her and ruining her life so young, I felt like everything was perfect.” his eyes show happiness. So open that it looks like a cartoon. It's perfectly showing the craziness of his. “And you also had to drug her?” I tried to get rid of Grace again, but she squeezes harder “Wasn't it enough for you to just ruin her adolescence by getting her pregnant? Scared and alone?” "That was mom's idea" she answers, with a touch of pride pronouncing mom instead of mother, as something more affectionate “. She agreed with everything we wanted to do to Daliah because she was being a threat to the family, so she helped us a little bit to descend her further into madness apart from sending her the clippings and that little toy” she take a deep breath and let it out with a big smile “. You don't know how happy I felt when I also saw her with the necklace around her neck, I knew that would make her more confused.” "The only thing you achieved is that She didn't trust you anymore." I answer through my teeth. “And?” She shrugs, with a grimace “We were already planning her murder by then, I didn't care if she didn't want to trust me.”

Crazy. They are crazy. There's no point in what they've been doing all these years. Why? Because did we manage to put their father in jail? It was me who testified against him! "Why didn't you go after me first?" I ask, with a trembling voice “I put your father in jail thanks to my testimony, he is the one you should have tortured.” Ralph walks over to us and takes my face in his hands. I can see the hate in them. He hates me. As Irma did, he digs his nails into my face, hurting me. I swallow nervously, waiting for him to kill me. “We wanted to make sure that the young woman who was saved from her death suffered” he says with a cold voice “Did she feel safe all these years thinking that nothing bad would ever happen to her? Well she was wrong” he lift my face harder and I let out a small moan of pain “. And thus, the young heroine would suffer so much for not having saved her this time that little by little she began to fall into madness.” “And what plan did you have with Jane?” I avoid being afraid of him, even though he intimidates me. “We wanted to make her remember her dear little brother in the clippings” answer now Grace “, to feel guilty because she's alive and he's dead, to see what it feels like when you're the one who should have been the one to die.” "You wanted her to take her own life." I reply disgustedly. “It would have been too suspicious if we committed a crime again, but we've had a better idea” she pushes me away and I stumble “. Walk.” I obey and Ralph stands next to me, as if he was also watching me from running away. With Grace behind me I can't get the knife out.

We approach the van and he opens the trunk. Jane is found tied up and with a tape over her mouth. She is totally asleep. I look at her with concern, what did they give her? “Hey.” Grace kicks off her shoes “. Come on, wake up already.” Jane groans and slowly opens her eyes, then looks at us in fright. She starts crying and whimpering, wanting to get rid. Her eyes show pleading. “Jane!” I scream wanting to free her, but they stop me. "Let's make this much more entertaining" Grace pulls me away a bit, looking at me with a big smile “, the heroine of Rosenschwarz is going to kill the girl who hated her sister so much” she begins to narrate as if she were explaining it as if she were a teacher “, because she discovered that it was she who sent her the articles and the doll, since they both had a very strong rivalry, Jane had done everything she could to get rid of her for always taking center stage away from her” she tilts his head with a look of false sadness “, poor Jane didn't felt well with Daliah using her story to get her performances and then reject them” she starts to walk in front of the door and I notice Jane still scared “. But Jane wasn't happy, she needed to plan it well, make it look like she was a Krebs impersonator.” Ralph grabs me tight, pushing me into the van, sitting me down. “She had always wished that Daliah had died, not her brother.” Grace continues to narrate and I hear Jane keep moving from inside the car, surely scared by what they are saying, blame it on her “and when she found out that Daliah's sister was investigating her death, she decided she had to get rid of her too, first trying to drive her crazy, but MC was much smarter and knew everything that happened between the two girls, for later... Take revenge into her own hand for what she did.” “Sounds like a bad movie, don't you think?” I ask, frowning. “When MC killed Jane in the same way that she murdered Daliah, she realized that it was useless, because she didn't return her sister” She looks at me coldly, taking a box out of her pocket “, madness had already taken over her and she didn't feel satisfied, just empty, so she took the pills” shake the box, without an expression this time “She entered the lake and decided to sleep forever, in the same place where her sister was found.” I try to look at Jane out of the corner of my eye, who is trying to speak between her sobs. I lift up my jacket a little from behind, so she can see that I'm not unarmed. Little by little she calms down and I think she understands what I want to do, because she starts banging on the van, which makes Grace start to get angry at her attitude. "Can you make her shut up for once?!" She asks her brother “She's pounding my head with her whining!” “She's very annoying, I know.” Ralph hisses, walking over to the van. As he walks in, he starts to want to hold her, but she struggles, moving. With Ralph distracted, he being the strongest, I slide my hand gently from behind while Grace is distracted watching her brother beating Jane. It's horrible to hear, but we both have to make sacrifices to get away.

I whip out the knife and plunge it into Ralph's thigh, causing him to groan and walk away. "But what the hell have you done, bitch?!" He screams wanting to catch me. I get up quickly and Grace walks over to me, holding my hand to keep it from being stabbed into her. We started to struggle and she ended up giving me a headbutt. I walk away dizzy and she then takes the opportunity to pick up the knife that I dropped. “Did you know? It's done.” she says between her teeth, going to help her brother “Are you okay?” “Yeah, I’m fine” his voice says the opposite “. I just need something to stop the bleeding.” I stare at them, wobbling a little. I watch as Grace raises the knife, looking over at Jane. It is a second that I compose myself from the fear that she will kill her, so I jump towards her, as if I had adrenaline in my body. I manage to knock her down and she begins to move the hand that has the knife, wanting to scratch me in the face. I stop her from doing so by turning my face away and try to stop her with one hand and place her around her neck with the other. "You deserve this for having killed my sister!" I yelled furiously, slamming her hand against the ground to make her release the knife “I'll kill you! You are a psychopath! You and Ralph are psychopaths!” “Grace!” Ralph yells and gets behind me, separating me from her, throwing me to the ground "Leave my sister!" I try to get up and he kicks me in the stomach that makes me turn around in pain, putting my hands up to protect myself in case he does it again. God, I think he hit me so hard I tasted iron in my mouth. Is capable a big kick making my mouth bleed? I place a hand on the ground, trying to get up. My arm shakes, I almost have a hard time getting up. I scream as he grab my ponytail, forcibly lifting me up to make me walk. "I told Grace we shouldn't have talked, but you know her, she's more sociable than me" he says in my ear. I feel his hot breath on my skin. He disgusts me “, instead I wanted to finish it soon.” "You won't get away with it!" I yell at him trying to free myself from him holding my hair tightly. It's as if he could rip it off with one pull. "I already did when I got rid of your sister" We begin to enter the water, it's freezing and it makes my body hot from the adrenaline little by little to freeze, unable to do anything anymore “. Now it's your turn.” He turns me around, placing me in front of him. Getting what he wanted: to see him afraid. He slowly runs his hand over my neck, as if he were caressing it delicately. But I know that he doesn't do it with that intention, but to intimidate me. Meanwhile, I can hear Grace trying to shut Jane up. "Now I want you to apologize for what you did to us" His voice is deep and cold, I hardly even recognize it. It sounds like the voice of a demon “. Come on, apologize.” I open my mouth to do it, then remember Daliah telling me it wasn't our fault. She apologized because she had clearly lived in fear because of him, but thanks to her words, I decide not to give in. I wont give up on him. I spit in his face and clench my teeth hard. “Go to hell with your father.” I say finally. I know that makes him angry and he starts to squeeze my neck hard. Little by little he starts to push me against the water and I struggle to avoid him, scratching his face and hands, kicking, but that makes me slip. I can hear his laugh as I fight back and I try everything in my power to get it off, but I can't. Little by little I run out of air, my throat hurts from how hard he squeezes. I feel the cold water on my back and very quickly I sink into the water. I try over and over to claw at his hands, freeing myself. Water rushes up my throat and nose, trying to scream for help, even though I know it's not possible. Nobody is coming. I start to get dizzy from lack of air, stopping fighting. I hadn’t realized until now, there’s a full moon.

It's the last thing I want to see instead of Ralph's face.

*Jake POV*

I had tried to call MC after making a detour to avoid the FBI checkpoint in Evergreed. I had to take another road to get to Rosenschwarz. Unfortunately it was longer. Damn, I have a bad feeling. I want to think that she has not answered because she does not want to argue, not for other reason, but the strange sensation in my body tells me that something has happened. I pass between the cars without worrying that I might have an accident, maybe even the police will have been alerted by my fast speed. And I ca not slow down it, I have to get there as soon as possible.

I get to Rosenschwarz and people start screaming complaining about my speed. I try to be careful not to run over someone either, although I almost did. Damn, where is the lake? It is as if the signs have been removed. I stopped for a moment, taking out my cell phone to locate it on the map. I am thankful that I know how to write quickly and that there is a good sign. Alright, it is to the left, left again and straight ahead to the right turnoff. I put my cell phone away and quickly started the sidecar again. "Come on, come on." I mumble, clenching my jaw "Fuck, faster!" I had never been angry like this and it was not with MC. I remember everything bad that has happened to her, I want to erase it from her mind. I want Grace and Ralph to pay for what they have done.

I manage to get there and I see a van and a silhouette, raising their hand. I skidd and stop the bike, removing my helmet to run towards them. I see Grace holding up a knife and I push her aside, then look inside the van. “MC!” I yell turning her around, but it's not her. I take the tape from Jane and she looks at me scared “Where is MC?!” I ask untying her. "Ralph..." is the only thing she manages to say, taking a desperate breath. She raises her pointing hand and I get out of the vehicle to look in the direction of the lake. I manage to see Ralph and a splash in the water. I run towards him, but fall to the ground as soon as they grab my ankle. "Who are you, bastard?!" Grace asks me, her hand still on my ankle. "Someone you should not mess with." I reply as I kick her in the face, right on the nose. She whimpers, managing to let go of me and I jump up off the ground, resuming my target for Ralph. I push him making him lose his balance and I bend down to grab MC from the water. “I got you!” I say while eating to get out of the lake “MC, I am here!” I yell when I see that her eyes are closed. I feel how they push me and I try to keep MC's body from making a hard impact against the ground, keeping her against my body. “I think you're a little late.” Ralph says with a laugh “She's already dead! I gently put MC on the ground and straight up to him, to punch him. He dodges it and he gives me one in the stomach. He grumbled at me, throwing me to the ground. “Come on, I have room for another one on the list of people I want to kill.” he says, waving me over. I take a handful of dirt and throw it at his eyes, leaving him helpless. I got up and pushed him to the ground, starting to punch at him. He manages to stop one and gives me a headbutt, knocking me down now to the ground. He places his hands around my neck, squeezing. It is like he have been preparing all these years with this force, because I am unable to break free. I punch him again and he lets go. I sit up and just as I am about to kick him in the stomach, I get stabbed in the shoulder. I walk away placing my hand on my shoulder, looking at Grace. She has the knife in her hand.

I look at both siblings, waiting to see who makes the next move. I feel the mask damp from sweat and the metallic taste in my mouth. I see Jane slowly approaching, so I avoid looking at her so they will not notice. “I don't know who the fuck you are” Ralph starts to say, spitting blood from his mouth, “, but you sure know how two against one ends. “Let's get this over with.” Grace smiles, gripping the knife tightly. Jane screams and pulls Grace's hair, causing her to drop the knife and they start fighting each other. And with that distraction, I go straight for Ralph, pushing him to the ground. I go to hit him and he stops me and again he manages to knock me down. I reach for the knife as I choke, feeling the tip of the blade. I manage to catch it and end up sticking it in his side, twisting it hard until it comes out. He screams in pain, pulling away from me. I see how blood flows from his body. “What have you done to me?” he asks rhetorically “Do you think that this way you will be able to bring her back to life?” he lets out a laugh “She's already dead like her sister's whore!” His laughter turns into a guffaw “I'm done with both! They are both dead!” I grip the handle tightly, feeling anger take over me. Ralph comes at me and I defend myself by digging the blade into his neck. His expression changes to one of surprise, spitting blood out of his mouth. I pull out the knife and he falls to his knees, putting his hand to the wound, wanting to stop the bleeding. I drop the weapon and run towards MC, she is pale and blue-lipped. I check to see if she is breathing, but is not. I lower the mask and begin to do compressions. “MC, COME ON, WAKE UP!” I desperate cry “DON'T DIE! IT'S NOT YOUR TIME!” I mouth to mouth her twice and continue to try to revive her. “DO NOT LEAVE ME! LOVE, DON'T LEAVE ME ALONE! I NEED YOU!” I remember the last time I cried and it was when I thought she had died. Now I start to cry uncontrollably, seeing how everything around me turns dark tones, mixed with the red of rage at seeing her lifeless, without having been able to keep her safe.

I hear some quick footsteps and I grab MC against my body, pulling us to one side. Grace plunges the knife into the ground, glaring at us. “You…!” She yells at me angrily “You have killed my brother!” I hold MC against my body and I begin to gasp for nerves. Grace rises with a smile so wide that Cheshire himself would be envious. When she is close, I swing my leg to knock her down, but she just wobbles. It is then that Jane reappears, pushing her. "STOP… FUCKING… US… AND DIE!" she yells, hitting her hand to make her drop the knife. Meanwhile, I return to the revive, even though I know I ca not continue, but I have to keep doing it. “MC, after this I promise there will not be any more dangers” I continue talking to her, almost in a desperate way “I promise I will even invite you to dinner! You remember? I still owe you dinner.” When I give her artificial respiration, I notice that it is almost difficult for me to give her air. Normally I am used to controlling my breathing when I run, but with this? This situation has made my whole body lose control of the nerves. "Jake! Watch out!” I hear Jane and turn around, stopping Grace. I grab her wrist tightly and she throws the knife when I break it, with all the accumulated fury. The scream she lets out sounds like an animal's. "This is not going to stay li-" I see how just like with Ralph, a knife goes through Grace's neck. The brunette takes her hands to her neck, looking for a way to take it off. But in the end, she falls to the ground like her brother. “Enjoy the ride to hell, bitch.” Jane spits, kicking the corpse. "JANE, HELP ME!" I yell for her to come over. Jane bends down and we both try to resuscitate, how hard it is for me to breathe, I can't continue. “MC, please wake up, WAKE UP!” my whole body trembles with the fear of losing her “I NEED YOU TO WAKE UP!” "Jake, I'm sorry" Jane exhales, her voice rueful ". but she's not going to wake up.” “NO! SHE HAVE TO WAKE UP!” I shout her out and resume resuscitation. That's when we hear sirens approaching, but I ignore them. "Jake, you have to go!" Jane tries to pull me away from her, but I push her away. "I'm not leaving until she wake up!" I yell, taking up again the resuscitation that interrupted me. "But it will be dangerous for you if they find you here!" She pushes me again, separating me from MC “I'll continue with the resuscitation, but get out now!” I see how Jane keeps her word and I stay for a while looking at the scene. MC will revive right? That’s what I tell myself, perhaps to deceive myself that I have lost her forever. "I trust you, Jane!" I yell as I get up, running to the motorcycle.

From afar I see how Jane does not give up on reviving MC. I squeeze the handlebars of the motorcycle hard, just like my eyes when closing them. I do not want to have to leave, but if I do not, they will arrest me and take me away from her forever. “I will be waiting for you, love, wake up soon.” I start the motorcycle and at full speed, I walk away from there. I avoid crying so I can see where I am going, but it is hard for me. I do not feel pain from Grace's slash or when Ralph tried to choke me with his hands. The only thing that hurts me the most now is that if I lose MC, I lose all on this life.

Hii your face claim posts are sooo helpful. I was wondering if you have any ideas for face claims for children in a period setting. Appearance or ethnicity doesn't really matter, just as long as they're kids under 14 ish.

I completely forgot about this blog 😅 you've reminded me to get back into compiling faceclaims, for now, for anyone who would like some extra resources, i have an extensive directory on quotev that I'm planning to eventually expand (add resources for each fc, ect) to tumblr. It is under construction rn I'm adding new fc's and alphabatizing them, so extending to tumblr is in the far future at this point.

QUOTEV FC HELP DIRECTORY

On to the actual ask, I do have a few younger period fc's. The resources for them are extremely limited, you might get 2 or 3 gifs on average for each. Younger fc's are hard to find so if none of these are what you were looking for, my advice would be to have children younger then 14 or so just be left faceless.

• Ana Maria Varlotomi (24 y/o but has mostly resources from when she was younger) (white)

• Raffey Cassidy (21 y/o but has plenty of younger resources that can pass as period) (white)

• Alissa Skovbye (21 y/o but has younger resources) (white)

• Maisie Williams (26 y/o but her resources as arya stark can pass as a younger teen) (white)

• Billie Gadson (5 y/o with plenty of period resources) (white)

• Max Pirkis (34 y/o but has resources from rome where he portrays young octavian) (white)

• Ty Tennet (21 y/o but can pass as a preteen in his HoTD resources) (white)

• Finn Elliot (20 y/o but his resources in vikings and the crown could work for a younger teen) (white)

• Dean Charles-Chapman (25 y/o but looks young in his GoT resources) (white)

• Lin Miaoke (23 y/o but only has resources from when she was younger) (east asian)

• Liu Chu Tian (13 y/o but that's literally the only gif i've seen of her) (east asian)

• Seo Eun Sol (13 y/o and pretty limited gif resources) (east asian)

• Yu Xiaotong (29 y/o but has younger resources) (east asian)

• Jiang Yiting (10 y/o with a few resources) (east asian)

• Kim Jin Woo (not sure about age and he's only got a few resources as prince ayushiridara in empress ki) (east asian)

• Nisa Sofia Aksongur (12 y/o but has some resources from magnificent century kosem) (turkish)

• Ayda Acar (not sure about age but has some resources from magnificent century) (turkish)

• Melis Mutluc (20 y/o but has younger resources from magnificent century) (turkish)

• Alihan Turkdemir (13 y/o has a decent amount of resources in magnificent century kosem) (turkish)

• Yusuf Berkan Demirbag (17 y/o with some resources from magnificent century) (turkish)

“I’m attracted to pie, but i do not feel the need to date pie.” + dielliot!

some s2 elliot being bitter when he first meets lila <3

It had taken Elliot all of two seconds to figure out there was something going on with Diego and the chick from the mental hospital. And if the way Five was watching her meant anything, he noticed as well. Or maybe he was just being a distrustful bastard like usual. Either or.

As they creeped towards...wherever they were going, Elliot wasn't really paying attention, he grabbed Diego's arm to stop him from moving.

"What? Are you okay?" Diego asked, resting his hand on top of Elliot's.

Elliot nodded. "I'm fine. Just have a question for you."

Diego's eyebrows creased in confusion. "What?"

"Did you fuck the crazy chick?"

He would have laughed at Diego's face if he wasn't so prepared to maul him to death like a pissed off tiger.

"No! No way!" Diego exclaimed. "I'm loyal to the bone! Am I attracted to her? Yes, but-"

Elliot could feel his patience ready to snap like a rubberband. “I’m attracted to pie, but I do not feel the need to date pie.”

"Who said anything about dating?"

Far ahead of them, Five shouted, "Can you two assholes have this discussion at some other time? We have more important matters at hand right now."

The half of me Chapter 24

Chapter 23 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I guess being an actress is more complicated than I thought. I had to repeat several movements because I move the wrong hand, my hair has to be behind my shoulders, if I look directly at the camera... How could Daliah do all this? And that I am still I have not done more scenes than this. I avoid pinching the sleeve of my blouse out of nerves. Because I also must be careful with the wardrobe. “MC, you should have looked at Josh” Carter cuts the scene “, he's talking." "Sorry." I say nervously, I had been thinking about what background music would be perfect for this scene. "Start again." I nod and take a deep breath.

The next scene was a bit easier, I had to be sitting in class pretending to take notes. Daliah doesn't speak here, but she had to be present because she was one more student. It was the introductory scene of the movie; the professor talks about legends and myths. He is passing images and the more terrifying. There's a moment when they talk about the wendigo that I'd love to look away, but right at that moment when the camera turns on me and I have to pretend it doesn't affect me. I'm thankful that I only have to do Daliah's scenes and not the entire movie. As soon as I'm done shooting, I'm out of here. I stay looking at the drawing of 'The man without a face'. I forget to even take the false notes. I'm to blame for not telling that he was Richy. All because I thought I was going to tarnish his image… A criminal… Who put us through terrible things. And I also remember the good times we had. I never knew what to answer if I forgave him or not, at that moment, I didn't know what to say. Jane asks something, immersed in the role and the "professor" answers her. The scene ends and I breathe in, to exhale heavily. "Perfect MC" Ralph tells me, a little clearer ", your expressions of astonishment were almost real." “Yeah, at least this time we were able to shoot this scene without a problem.” Carter smiles. "Well, it's just that you help me a lot." I try to lie, but I'm nervous. "You're doing well, MC" Grace says to me, smiling ", you look like a professional actress." I laugh shyly, I know she's saying it to encourage me to keep going, but I know I wouldn't reach Daliah's level. Besides, I wasn't even acting.

We take a break and I sit on the stairs of the academy to eat. Everyone has their group already, but it doesn't bother me. Oh, I wish my friends were here, although they might have objected to me helping them because of everything I've been through, but I'd feel terrible leaving them stuck without teacher approval for the film festival. I see Mason sit down next to Seo-ah and I smile as he makes her smile with a comment. Then I remember Jake and the chat discussion this morning, how I'll talk to him on the phone. I take out my phone and see that I have messages from him concerned. I bite my lip hard, feeling stupid. I've known Elliot for years, so it's normal for me to side with him a little bit, but at the same time I don't want to be mad at Jake. I decide to write to him, already a little calmer. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MC Jake, sorry about what happened this morning… I'm really sorry But understand that Elliot is my friend, it's normal for me to lose my mind taking his side I even plan on sneaking out again to go to Evergreed to see you and talk it over calmly, okay? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I wait for his answer, but he don't answer. Strange, because of his message, he said that he would wait for me to want to talk and now he doesn't say anything. "Can we keep you company?" I look up to see Grace and Ralph, with their respective trays of food. "Sure" I nod, and Grace sits next to me, while Ralph takes a step down, in front of Grace ". I've seen Seo-ah's dolls” Grace looks at me, paying attention “. It’s looks quite similar to the doll that Daliah received." "I know" she admits with a sigh ". I'm scared to think that she sent it to her, it would be horrible, because look at her" she point at her and I see Seo-ah laugh with Mason ", it would be a disappointment to everyone." Jane and Carter walk over to us and she smiles at us. "Can we sign up too?" she asks, not letting go of Carter's hand. “There are plenty of seats.” Ralph replies, pointing to the stairs. Carter sits next to me and Jane next to him. I see that they divide the food and then they kiss. Great… I'm surrounded by couples… This is uncomfortable, especially knowing that Carter cheated on her. “My bet is Carter” Ralph says, then looks at him “, maybe he killed Daliah." "And maybe you're going to be next." Carter snaps back, making Ralph laugh. "Guys, enough" Jane looks at them with a frown ", you can't talk about these things with the MC in front of you-" "Is okay" I answered, concentrating on the food ", also, I don't think you're any of you." "And so?" Grace asks, drinking from her water bottle after her "Anything else to know?" “Well” I clear my throat, prepared to deliver the news “, at the moment there are two suspects: A man named Armando Serrano, a Colville businessman Daliah sometimes worked for, and the alleged son or daughter of Krebs." They all stare at me. Carter's look is scary, like I've said something wrong. Sure, he asks Serrano for money. If it turns out that he is the murderer, he would no longer be able to get money. Grace looks a little pale from the news to which I see her squeeze Ralph's shoulder and Ralph takes her hand lovingly. Jane on the other hand seems the most interested, nodding. "Janis Krebs had a son?" the ash blonde asks me, surprised "How come nobody knew?" "Protection of minors" I quickly answer ". They didn't want the press to ask him or her about his or her father." "And what about Serrano?" Grace asks, resting her head on Ralph's. Yes, they are totally a couple "Have they already asked him?" "I don't know yet" I shrug, brushing my hair away from my face to look at her ", maybe they will today." Whoever Krebs's son is, I think they must be living far from Rosenschwarz by now" Carter takes some of his food and makes a sound as if he's going to continue speaking ". Come on, it would be suicidal to go near this town if you were the son of a child murderer, they would blame you for what your father did. "And if we change the subject?" Grace asks, and I see discomfort in her eyes. "We're just talking" Jane answers ", and you're right, honey, I'd be ashamed to be her daughter. I'm not!" She quickly defends herself. I nod and watch as Grace strokes Ralph's hair, ignoring us. Could it be that… Grace?

After eating, I decide to approach Mason and Seo-ah. I don't want to interrupt the moment they're having, but I'd like to ask her something about her stuffed animal. "Hey guys." I wave, a little nervous. "How are you doing, new Audrey Hepburn?" Mason tells me and I laugh "I hope you're not taking it wrong for replacing Daliah." "It's complicated" I answer ", especially for not knowing where to put your foot or avoid making a strange face." "I'm surprised you agreed to act" Seo-ah gives me a pitying look ". I mean... I wouldn't have minded making the movie from the beginning eliminating Daliah." “Yeah, I think the same thing” Mason looks at her, nodding ". I'm not saying that Daliah was expendable" he looks at me quickly ", but I don't know if is going to be good the day we show this short at the festival" he grits his teeth, looking annoyed ". I think is going to attract more attention because of the publicity they're going to want to give it than because of the plot itself." I nod, knowing what he's trying to say. Everyone will want to see the movie because a girl who died is in it before it was released. And, to top it all off, her twin replaces her in some scenes that she comes out. I hope they really appreciate the talent that Daliah had more than what's supposed to be behind the screen. "Actually, I came to talk to you Seo-ah" I look at the girl and nod ". It's about the dolls you made." "Is something wrong with them?" She asks me concerned "Did Carter say something? We need more?" "No, it's not that" I bite my tongue, trying to find the exact words so she doesn't think I'm accusing her directly, that I just want information ". Actually, Daliah received a doll quite similar to the ones you make." She looks at me starting to turn pale. She seems like she's starting to freak out at my accusation. "Are you insinuating that it's her?" Mason looks at me angrily "Seo-ah can't do that." “I'm not implying, I'm just asking if she knows anything." Seo-ah slowly shakes her head and I can see her looking at me in fear. "Well, I don't know how that's possible" she answers, a little nervous ". I mean... It's not possible since I brought the dolls today-" "I know, but maybe if-" Seo-ah quickly stands up, picking up the food items from her. “Sorry, I have to go over the script for the next scene.” she says with a smile. I stop her by grabbing her wrist. I look into her eyes, so she understands how serious this is. “Enough of the lies” I begg, with my voice shaking ". Please… " I watch her swallow hard and nod. "Can I come to your house tonight?" She asks me, looking around a little uncomfortable "I prefer not to talk here." “Sure” I reply, letting go of her wrist ". If you want, you can stay the night, I would love to have a friend with me." She smiles shy at me, and I hear Mason complain. "And what about me?" He asks embarrassed. "Girls only." She taps his on the forehead playfully ". Boys are off limits." “When I throw a party too, girls will be off limits to her” he says in a proud voice “video games, junk food, and explosion movies." "To think that we girls can't like that is a bit old-fashioned, don't you think?" Seo-ah tells him, with a laugh "See you tonight then, MC." Seo-ah walks away from us, and I watch Mason watch her go. He even lets out a sigh. I smile seeing the scene. It's like watching a romantic teen movie. Only without teenagers. "Is it wrong to say that one day I'll marry her?" He continues watching Seo-ah leave. I shake my head, letting out a laugh. "I think even she thinks the same thing, too." "Really?" He turns his head quickly, like an owl. His eyes sparkle after hearing me say that. "Break is over!" Carter yells from the stairs "Go get ready for the next scene!" “See you inside.” Mason stands up and pats me on the shoulder. I make a noise of agreement and take out my phone again, hoping that Jake has texted me back. Unfortunately, he hasn't said anything to me, maybe he's changed his mind and he's decided it's not worth it anymore because I've sided with Elliot? << But at no point have I said that I love Elliot… >> I look nervously at the screen. What have I done? "Come on MC!" Grace exclaims, coming up next to me "What's wrong? And that face?" "Nothing" I put the phone away nervously, hoping she hadn't seen the conversation ". Seo-ah will come talk to me at the end." "Really?" She looks at me curiously "Do she know something then?" "I don't know, according to her, no." "Hopefully she knows something and tells you" She grabs my arm and pulls me away ". But now, let's go to the next scene" I nod and she laughs, starting to walk quickly ". By the way, who is Jake? “ Oh, so she's seen it? “Someone special?" I look aside. I didn't want anyone to find out, it's too dangerous for him. "More or less" I reply. The list of people who know Jake's name is getting longer, and I don't like it at all. "I remember Daliah hooked up with a guy named Jake years ago." she lets out an exaggerated sigh "God! He was hot! "Yeah, she already told me the same thing" I answered awkwardly ", but I don't think he's the same one we're talking about." "Who knows?" She tells me with a smile "Both sisters are attractive to men." I try to figure out what she means by those words. But I prefer not to think that by chance Jake and Daliah got to know each other at some point in their lives and maybe… No. Stop MC, Jake doesn't like Daliah, you know that. I tried to keep up with her, hoping the next scene would be just like the one before, quiet.

Well…

It is not a peaceful scene. "Well MC" Carter places me in an 'X' on the hallway floor ", in this scene you have to run away from 'The Man Without a Face' " I turn to see the actor playing him and he gives me a smile gentle. As for him not to be afraid of him ". There are some markings in the corridor that will tell you where you have to go, which is to lock yourself in the janitor's closet, okay?" I nod and let the makeup and hairdressers fix me while I listen to Carter "The red marks are the ones you have to act like you trip over, but don't worry, there aren't many and you don't have to fall down either." I try not to touch too much my hair or clothes, which are torn apart as if I've been attacked. "The blood is perfect" Ralph says, looking into the camera ", it doesn't hide her face, so she'll look good" He smiles at me with a thumbs-up ". Perfect." I think he laughs at me. I'm supposed to come out of the corner to prepare to run. I think it will be quite easy. "You'll do fine" the "villain" tells me, putting on his mask ". Good luck.” he punches me in the arm and I groan. He has hit too hard. I prepare to listen to Carter, tuning my ear. I avoid touching my blood make-up, it itches, am I allergic or is it the nerves of knowing that what I feared the most is finally going to persecute me? "Action!"

We repeat the scene at least four times. I've tried to get it right, but I can't. Every time I pretended to trip, I really hurt myself. In the end I ended up with red hands from stopping the ground with it so much. To make matters worse, the wound hurts from doing it. They've done everything they can to hide it, telling me how to position myself so it won't show. "Cut." the way of saying it Carter seems to be tired. It's not my fault, it's complicated "What's wrong? “I can't do it.” I mutter, holding my hand “How do I pretend to trip without actually falling?" "Instead of opening your arms in an exaggerated way" Jane moves her arms just in that exaggerated way and I laugh, calming myself down ", focus more on your feet, look." She bends down and I watch her place my feet ". Trie to think of placing your feet like this, crossed, but watch your knee or you'll fall for real if you hit yourself hard." I nod and they put my hair back on and her blood paints it again, the liquid look it had been gone. I take a breath and wait for Carter to say action again.

Upon hearing it, I run away.

This time, I do better. Looking back from time to time. As far as I know, we have to replay this scene a couple of times from different camera angles, so I try to memorize every move I make, like it's a song. It's easy for me if I think of it that way. I reach the janitor's closet and close the door, just like Carter told me to. "Cut! "He exclaims, with a happy intonation "Perfect!" I smile and when I go to open the door... "What?" I move the latch, but it doesn't open. "MC? You can go out now.” Mason tells me. "I try, but it won't open." I say, trying to open the door again "it won't open! Can you do something?" “Okay, we'll try from outside.” I hear Carter say. I lean back a bit and the sound of a television makes me turn. On screen, Daliah appears crying, with hands around her neck. The screen goes black, as in a movie appearing a few words. <<Say it.>> “I'm sorry.” Daliah says between sobs. <<Say it more convincingly.>> "I'm so sorry!" <<Feeling it is not enough.>> I see him start to squeeze around her neck and she tries to break free. "Don't do it. Please… Please! Don't do it!" It's the same scream that sounded in that call. I start to cry, watching the death of my sister. <<You should have died.>> Little by little I see how Daliah stops breathing. "Daliah!" I scream even though I know it already happened "No, no, no, no!" "MC?" I hear Jane call me "What's wrong?" I walk over to the television and place my hands on the sides of it, as if I want to save it. "Stay with me! Daliah! Don't leave me!" Something on the screen appears. A message. For me. <<One less.>> My tears don’t stop falling. What do I have to do with all this? I was a child! I did what I must do! <<I will finish what I started.>> The screen blacks out and I curl up on the floor. Scared. Shattered. Crying. I can't with this torture. I can't take it anymore... I want it to end once and for all. The door is flung open and someone approaches me. "MC!" I hear Jane approaching me "What's wrong?!" “Da-Daliah…” I try to say as she helps me up “The video… They… were killing her! I have seen her death!" Carter walks over to the television and punches the buttons, trying to turn it on. He even hits it to make it react. “Nothing, it doesn't work.” he says as he sits up. "Who was in charge of the closet, preparing it?" Grace asks "The knob is broken!" I see how he checks that he doesn't get to move enough to open. "Me" We all look at Mason, surprised ". But I checked that it works fine-" "Well, it wasn't! Look at her! She is scared!" Grace walks over to us and looks at me "Are you okay?" "I…" I shake my head "Can I stop recording? I want to go home." "Sure" Carter looks at everyone and raises his voice "Change of plans! Today we shot the scenes for William, Josh and Marcus!"

I leave quickly and hear Mason call my name. "MC! Wait!" "No! I want to go home!" I yell as I headed to the classroom to collect my things. "I just want to apologize!" I enter the classroom and take the clothes that I have in the bag, along with my jacket and my bag. “Listen” Mason stands in the doorway, stopping me “, I swear I didn't leave you locked in there." I stare at him, doubting. He could have made that video since he was dedicated to modifying those of his classmates. Quite possibly he could have made that video of Daliah. He could be the murderer. I move him aside to pass, I want to clean the blood off and change as soon as possible. "I'm telling you the truth" he stops me, grabbing my wrist ", it wasn’t me." "Let her go" Ralph appears and separates our hands ". You look more suspicious, don't you see?" Mason looks from Ralph to me, looking surprised. "I'm sorry, I really-" I push them both and walk away from there.

I go into the bathroom and put the clothes in the sink. I break down crying again when I look in the mirror. I see the image of Daliah crying. Asking forgiveness. I turn on the faucet and start to wipe off the fake blood, though it's hard for me because I don't want to look in the mirror. I can't see myself. I only see Daliah. My hands shake every time I run them over my face, rubbing the paint away. It hurts. It's like a knife was just stuck in my heart and I couldn't get it out. When I finish the face, I continue with the arms and hands, managing to stop seeing myself in the mirror. I hear the notification sound and frantically search for my phone, wishing it was Jake. I need to talk to him.

But they weren't the words I wanted to read... ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nym-0s Do not come to Evergreed anymore. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

My breath catches reading those words. Now it is as if the dagger Ihad had been pulled out along with the heart. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MC What are you saying? Jake? Please! Don't tell me that! I need you! Now more than ever! I promise I won't side with Elliot again if it's for that! But don't tell me we don't see each other anymore! Please Jake! Don't do this to me now! I love you! Please!

-----Nym-0s has left the chat---- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A gasp escapes me as I read those words. It couldn't be that he really had been mad at me, right? It couldn't be true that over some silly fight about not wanting to risk losing him again. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MC Nymos! Tell me where is Jake!

Nym-0s Scanning user by the name of Jake. … …. ….. …… Scanned name. No user with the name of Jake is detected. Do you want something else?

MC And with the name of Nym-0s?! Please! It's urgent!

Nym-0s Scanning user by the name of Nym-0s. … …. ….. …… Scanned name. No user with the name of Nym-0s is detected. Do you want something else? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I scream and fall to my knees, my phone clutched to my chest. Jake has left me alone. Again, but why? Is it really my fault? Have I lost his trust? I'm so sorry! I didn't want this to happen! I didn't want to fight him! I lean against the wall, leaving the phone on the floor and raising my hands to my head. It hurts me so much to cry, for the things I've seen today. I don't have Daliah. I don't have Jake. I have no one. The door opens and I don't turn to see who is, but the presence of someone sitting next to me doesn't calm me down. "Do you want me to take you home?" I hear Jane ask me. "What… " I look at her still without stopping to cry "What about the short film?" "Carter is now busy giving Mason the talk about what he did" she makes a face ", so he goes long" she offers me her hand and gives me a smile ", shall we go?" I nod and she helps me up. I hug her and she tried to comfort me, stroking my hair. "Everything is going to be fine" she tells me calmly ". You'll see." I cry harder, trying to believe her words. Someone is hurting me in the most terrible way possible and I am powerless to do anything. I have a feeling that everyone wanted to do this with me today, that everyone might be Daliah's killer and I'm the only one with only blood on my hands from not being able to do anything for her.

When I get home, Jane leaves me on the sofa and goes to the kitchen. Seconds later I hear her complain. "MC, the fridge is almost empty!" I listen to her as she returns and picks up her phone from the table " Do you feel like... Some pasta? Or maybe a vegetarian?" "Why has this happened?" I ask without looking for an answer. I already know why all this is happening "Why does they just kill me and that's it?" Jane sighs and puts her phone down on the coffee table, looking at me. "Look, the one who is doing this to you is a first-class psychopath" She looks at me, she is furious ". I don't know what happened in that closet, but whatever it is, I believe you." “It was the video of Daliah being killed” I say, my voice cracking ". Jane... I saw him stop breathing..." "The problem is that that television didn't turn on." she crosses her arms, thoughtful "Why?" "Because they doesn't want anyone except me to see it" I answer, wiping away my tears, "Can I tell you something?" Jane nods and I take a deep breath. "I have access to Daliah's computer" I said slowly ", in it there are files talking about receiving the clippings, the doll... Conversations, a newspaper talking about you all... Everything..." Little by little her face changes. She looks at me scared. "Do you have it here?" She asks me nervously "Why didn't you give it to the police?" "No, I don't have it" I know I'm risking what I'm doing ". The computer couldn't be accessed so I asked a hacker to help me-" "Okay, okay." she moves her hand to stop me "But why are you telling me this? Why me?" I shake my head as I shrug. "Because I'm left alone and I don't know who to trust anymore." I answer, crying again. She sighs and hugs me again. "He left me" I say through tears ". He has left me alone and I don't know what to do..." "I don't know who you're talking about, but I'm sure everything will be fine." she tells me, as she pats me on the back "The FBI won't be after me now that you've told me, will they?" I let out a laugh, although it's not like I'm amused, but I no longer know what's a joke and what's serious. "No, they won't." I pulled her away and brushed my hair out of my face. "I hope so" she picks up the phone again and looks at me ". Ok so we ordered a vegetarian?" I shrug, letting her choose. Not even if I want to, I don’t feel like eating.

Jane stays until nightfall, since she is calm that Seo-ah is coming to my house. According to her, she has promised me not to tell me anything about what I'm doing with Daliah's computer, just to be careful that Elliot doesn't find out what I'm doing or I'll get in trouble with the police again. She understands me better than anyone thanks to the fact that she knows what it is to lose a brother. "Surely if I were in your situation, I would have also hacked into my brother's computer if he had hidden things from me." was what she told me when I explained why I'm doing it. I might really risk ratting us out, but… I really don't know what else to do… I feel completely dejected and without Jake…

I receive a text from Seo-ah and sigh in relief. At least it's okay. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-----Seo-ah has connected-----

Seo-ah Sorry, it may take a little longer I've been talking to Mason about what happened 😔 He really isn't feeling well because of what happened to you.

MC No problem But please don't be long

Seo-ah Now I go I collect my things and I'm on my way 😊

MC Okay

Seo-ah See you

-----Seo-ah has disconnected----- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I put down the phone and I wait on the couch, closing my eyes to relax. But every time I do, Daliah shows up. I look at the sofa and get up quickly, remembering that she died on one, so I stay in my room waiting.

I look at the time and Seo-ah doesn't show up, where is she? I decide to send her messages. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MC Seo-ah? Where are you? I've been waiting an hour Let me know if something happened...

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I leave my phone on loud in case I fall asleep waiting, though I don't think that will happen. I look ahead and see Daliah sitting up in bed, her neck red and her eyes sunken. Her paleness makes her bloodshot eyes stand out. She opens her mouth to speak, but she can't, she has a hard time doing it. I hide my face to avoid seeing her.

Jake…

Why have you left me?

*Jake POV*

I was going to reply to MC's messages telling me that Elliot is her friend and that she wanted to come to Evergreed, I wanted to tell her that it was a bit dangerous at the moment, but the door stopped me from sending her that message. They were knocking so frantically that it made me slowly open the door, finding Mike. "What are you doing here?!" I ask nervously. "We don't have time!" He pushes the door, entering. "Hey! Can you explain to me what is going on?!" Mike stops taking my stuff out of the closet and walks over to me. "Rocco was in class when he saw them through the window" I pay attention to his words, he speaks very quickly ". Men going door to door, some in suits and others in uniforms with the word FBI on it" little by little I start to get nervous ", and they've never been to Evergreed." So I start to go as fast as I can, turning off the computers and starting to put them away. Mike takes my things out of the closet, placing them on the bed and I pile everything into my backpack as best I can. This is not the time to order. "How long do you think they have left to get to the hostel?" I ask nervously, as I put the computers in the bag of what I have left of equipment. "If they were in the school area, probably about forty-five minutes" he closes my backpack as best he can and looks at me ". Thirty if any decide to sing that they has recognized you." I mutter curses under my breath, pulling on my mask and hood. Then put on the gloves. I take out my cell phone and look at the chat. I have to let her know. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nym-0s Do not come to Evergreed anymore. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I send her quickly, to want to continue sending her an explanation. "What are you doing?!" Mike asks me, pointing to the door "You'll explain it to her later!" True, he is right. Unfortunately, it hurts me to read the messages that she has sent me when she notices that I doesn't answer her anymore. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I clench my jaw hard, hoping she will forgive me. But now I cannot use this cell phone, it is not safe. And I decide to do something unthinkable. To disappear from her life again, removing myself from the Nymos chat, leaving it as the program it was before. “Come on, I will give you something to run away with.” I follow Mike running downstairs as we leave the room. On the street, I see a black sidecar. Mike tosses me the key and I catch it. "Here, it will help you to take the equipment." I set the large duffel bag on the seat as I strapped the backpack onto my back, picking up the helmet. "And this too" He hands me a new cell phone and I put it in the bag with the rest of the team. To which I quickly take out the card from my cell phone and destroy it ", the phone PIN is 3618, the number 60421." “Thanks, Mike.” I tell him as I put my helmet on. "And!" He hands me a piece of paper and I read it "Go to Colville. A woman lives in this building who will give you a apartment to hide in" I look at him doubtfully ". Tell her you're on my side and everything will be fine." I nod and raise my hand. “Good luck man, I'll be working on the program." I accept his hand, giving it a shake. I miss doing this again. "If MC comes to Evergreed, make sure she comes back to Rosenschwarz" I tell him in a serious tone ", she does not come here for a while." "I'll keep her far away." I remove my hand and start the sidecar. This is the worst thing that could have happened to me today.

And I am pretty sure who could have done this.

Elliot.

He has broken the deal we had and has given me away again, surely he has tracked my number What an idiot I have been! If he did it once for her, clearly he would do it again to get away from MC.

I have already traveled a long way, I think I can stop for a moment to look at my cell phone. I park and pull away from the road, pulling the item out of the bag. I flip up the visor and turn on the cell phone. At the moment, the only chat there is from Mike. As soon as I get to the safe place where he told me to stay, I will have to reprogram Nymos on my cell phone and contact MC. I just hope that she can forgive me for having sent her that message, I did not have time for further explanations. I put the cell phone away and start the bike again. There are a few kilometers to go. It is a little slower than going by train, but I am sure Mike thought they had been watching the train station. It is already lucky that I was able to evade the police control that was at the exit of Evergreed, I really had to go through alleys until I reached the highway. But the worst thing will be that it will take time to contact MC if I want to reassemble the equipment and program Nymos on the cell phone again. I will not be able to talk to her until tomorrow. A whole year's work wasted. I hope that the copy of the computer accepts to be installed in the new cell phone.

I arrive at the address of Colville. They are part of the suburbs. You can tell that it is a city by the amount of people there. I park the bike and take the travel bag, leaving the helmet on the bike. I call the first floor as indicated on the paper. "Yes? Who is it?" asks an older lady on the intercom. “I am here from Mike Vogt.” I answer, careful not to let anyone else hear me. The lady lets out a sigh and opens the front door. "This son of mine, what has he done now?" She says before hanging up the phone. << Son?>> I enter and the first thing I find is a lady with brown hair with few gray hairs and collected in a bun. She is big and she looks at me like she is glaring at me. "And who are you?" She asks me, in a doubtful tone. "I am just a friend of her son's" I reply, a little uncomfortable to admit. And that she reminds me of when my mother was going to give me the talk for having done something bad ". He said that you could help me-" “I'm not a nun of charity, damn it!” She puts her hand to her head, and then she points to me “Okay, follow me." She turns around at a steady pace and I obey her order. The place is even worse than the hostel, with torn and stained wallpaper. "You would have seen" I hear how he murmurs ", always the same, I don't know who that boy has looks like, but I already tell you no to his father! He was such a wretch." It makes me a little uncomfortable having to listen to this conversation. I do not think Mike would like me to hear his mother talk about these things with a stranger. We arrive at a door, and she takes out some keys with a number, taking 104 from the key ring. "Here." I go to take it, but she pushes her away "But how are you going to pay me?" "Well" I start talking nervously. This woman scares me more than the FBI ", I have some money." "Some money?” She arches an eyebrow, looking at me doubtfully. "It is not much-" "Oh, no!" She puts the key in her neckline and she pushes me " Let's go! Here you pay or nothing!" "The floors!" I quickly exclaimed "I can fix whatever you need in exchange for me staying!" She stops and I see how she looks around the place. After me. "Since my son has left his poor mother alone and helpless in charge of all this" her exaggerated way of speaking is almost pitiful "I suppose a handsome young man could help me in exchange for him staying here safe, yeah" . I sigh with relief. It cannot be that it worked.

I enter the apartment after she enters, showing me the place. Is a bit old too, but at least you can tell she is coming to clean it up. I start to get my equipment out and put everything on the table, turning on Daliah's computer and mine, plugging them back in like before. "Hacker, right?" The lady asks me, whose name she has not told me yet "Now I understand everything…" “I am one of the good guys.” I answer clearly. "Yes, I was too, now I'm retired thanks to the law" I blink surprised and she laugh "What? Did you think that Mike has learned from his father? I've taught that smart boy everything I know.” She holds out hwe hand in greeting ". Rudy Zimmerman" "Delighted." I accept her hand and she looks at me doubtingly. "No name?" "I do not think it is a good idea to tell you" I answer, still without taking off my mask ", it would put you at risk." She chuckles, walking over to the door. "As if I care about risk at this point" she jerks his thumb out ". Remember the deal, tomorrow you start with the boiler room, kid." She winks at me and leaves. I lower the mask and let out a long breath. I would never have thought of accepting help from other people knowing that she would put them at risk, but given the circumstances, I have no choice but to accept. I hope this does not bring consequences to her later.

I take out my cell phone and connect it to the other computer I have, starting to install Nymos.

Please, may MC be okay and they do not go after her again.
