Blank

Images flashed through your mind, tearing through the fissure and screaming. Shadows churned, blood ran hot down your throat, red then blue, then red... then blue again, the waters drained of their power, and the creature crawled from its shell and left something weak behind.

Golden eyes settled on you, as it flashed a spiteful smile.

5 out of 7, You are running out of chances.... good luck.

Your eyes shot open; and in a silent scream arose from your bed - eyes wide - mouth agape.

Your body dripped with cold sweats as you stared out into nothingness. Heart thundering in your chest, you looked around in a panic, the feeling of deep anxiety sweeping through you momentarily before coming realised where you were...

Taking a few calming breath, and wiping the wet shine from your forehead, you sighed in relief, seeing East-Wallace's golden suite, the fine almost apartment-like space seeming a lot cleaner than you were used to?

Shifting out of bed, you heard the sound of birds outside, and yawned as you stretched, wondering if she had already left for classes, strange? she seemed to eager last night, you really didn't hope that she was having second thoughts. but you shrugged, you guessed that she probably just cleaned up and rushed away in shyness... as tough as she tried to act she had her nerves.

Moving over to the drawers in the corner, you grinned as you heard the running shower

"I guess she is still here after all" You thought, hearing the low sound of a woman's voice singing from inside.

You decided to move towards the mirror, you bet you looked a mess but-"Agh!" You groaned as you stubbed your toe, your clouded vision doing nothing to help your motor skills.

Sighing with annoyance at your blindness, you felt at the beside, surprised to not accidently knock over a mug or something, though your fingers eventually touched at the circular lenses of your glasses, you smiled, slipping them on... your sight was restored... accept, You paused.

Taking off your glasses and training your eyes to look at them, you felt something... odd _"This frame is new? and these lenses too? when did I get these, I haven't bought new glasses for years." _You thought, a very potent feeling of oddity sweeping through you... like something was very wrong, something was very very wrong.

Slipping your glasses back on, you rushed over to the Mirror out of compulsion and froze as your body came into view.

But... that was... this is... this is impossible?

You were... Tall... very tall, like Six-Three? and your shape, you weren't shrimpy or small, you were lean like a sprinter, compact muscle ran up your legs and arms, your chest was smooth and thick, while your abdomen was split into clean a clean pack of six, your slightly Rosey skin gleamed with life, the sickly little nerd was nowhere to be seen, you looked healthy as a horse, except for the horrible looking scar on your shoulder, a rippling scar that spread along your collarbone... but there was more!

You lent into the reflection, looking at Your face, at your sharpened features and square jaw, which made you look ratty before, but now you looked like a god damn male model! your complexion was clear, buttery, your teeth started white and your nose was sharp but cute... a very faint, long jagged scar running from your forehead, across your eye and into your cheek. "What the fuck?" is all you could say as you further surveyed yourself

Your touched your curly dark mahogany hair and looked with confusion at the silver streaks that ran in certain locks, the soft curls waving like a Mist mixed amongst dark trees. But the most unsettling change of all, one that sent a chill into your bones, where your eyes, your eyes were silver, not gold? WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON!? WHY ARE YOU PRETTY HOLY FUCK!?

A shimmering pain shot through your head, making you grip it as you turned around to face the bathroom door.

You listened carefully to the voice, to the words that echoed from within "oooooh laughing on the inside, crying on the inside, cuz I'm so in love... with yooooouuu...."

"Jane?" You called meekly, creeping forward as you shook with fear.

The Voice was loud and enthusiastic so that it echoed clear to hear.

"I got a feelin' called the blue-ooooohhhhess, oh Lord

Since my baby said goodbye

Lord, I don't know what I'll doooowhooowhooo

All I do is sit and siaaaaaaeeeeeyyyyghoh-lord

That last long day, she said goodbye

Well Lord, I thought I would cry

She'll do me, she'll do you

She's got that kind of lovin'

Lord, I love to hear her when she calls me sweet da-aaaaaahhhaaah-addy suuuch a beautiful dreammm!"

She was pretty good, though her yodelling was a bit mad-what the fuck where you thinking about, who was this person, it definitely wasn't Jane, Jane sucked at singing, and as you crept towards the door that was opened a crack, you stared with wide eyes, half in shock, and the other bewitchment.

The Woman that jigged strangely, washing off her tall and curvaceous form with an abundance of bubbly soap, Her long Golden blonde hair whipping as she sang passionately with her eyes clamped shut.

"....Such a beautiful dream, I hate to think it's all over

I've lost my heart it seems, I've grown so used to you somehow

Well, I'm now I got no sugar daddy now, And I'm lo-oowowowowowo-onesome..."

You stared at her perfect goddess-like body, her fat shining thighs that rippled with muscle in all the right places, her flat stomach leading up into to... absolutely... HUGE TITS, each with the wide areola, they were like literally melons! the fucking pillowy, buttery globes shifting and holding tightly to her body as she sang the final note, turning in your direction.

"I GOT THE LOVESICK BLU-OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSE-" Her violet eyes opened before she finished, and they caught on yours. there was a moment of eye contact, complete silence where the only sounds were the shower spraying into her breasts.

She looked down at her self, and drew the curtain to cover herself, her face contorting as she screamed: "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH WERE YOU WATCHING ME YOU PERVERT!?" She cried as You grimaced.

"Oh god, I'm sorry I'm so so sorry... but Who the Hell are you, where is Jane!?" You asked... god you were an idiot.

She scowled "Jane!? what? just... just close the door..."

You did so without hesitation, heart thumping as you began to hyperventilate, pacing in panic as the pain in your head intensified, images flashing through your mind so fast that you couldn't see them, your legs shaking as you felt small, terrified, the walls closing in with the panic attack. You fell to your knees, clutching your head as you began to scream.

The Blonde rushed out in a long towel, covering her body another wrapped around her head, worry consuming her as she quickly helped you to your bed "Oh my god, I'm sorry I'm sorry, I shouldn't have yelled, just... calm down, take a few breathes... that's right darlin' just remain calm now... that's it, slow and steady, yaw'll got it."

You held your chest, trying to take in deep calming breathe, listening to the Woman's soft southern tone as she gave you a smile... the pretiest smile that You had ever... ever seen. As your anxiety began to deflate and focus returned to your mind, you managed to speak breathfully "Who are you... where am I... Where is Jane...?" You asked.

The Woman held up her hands "Hey... hey... relax, You need to listen to me very carefully okay? just answer a few questions for me and I'll tell you anything that you want, deal?" Her voice was smooth and sweet, gentle like a mother's, you found yourself nodding.

"Great, good... Okay, do you know your name?"

You raised an eyebrow "Charlie..."

She smiled "Good. How old are you?"

"Nineteen..."

The Blonde nodded, happily "Awesome, perfect. When is your birthday?"

You went to speak but found nothing at first, your mind went blank, but with a little digging you found it "October 31st 1999."

Her Amethyst eyes burst with excitement "Amazing Honey, just one more, I want you to finish this sentence if you can, but only if you can okay?"

You weren't sure what this randomer was playing at, but you played along, nodding in agreement. Her eyes focused on you carefully, like this was the million-dollar question "Make Pact with the Night and...." She whispered you furrowed your brows.

"Why would you make a pact with the Night?" You asked.

She frowned looking a little concerned "Make a pact with the Night and Let...."

You sighed "Can you please just tell me what the Hell is going on?"

Her beautiful features fell into a kind of hopelessness, her tall form plopping next to you on your bed as she reached down into a little red purse. She brandished a shiny ID Card on a Lanyard, showing it to you as she took your wrist lightly and held it up.

You saw the hospital tag on your wrist, formerly noticed, and saw the medical license with the Woman's face on it "My name is Daisy Teresa... It's my job to look after you... they said that you might not recall yesterday..."

Fear in your eyes, You asked hesitantly "W-What happened yesterday?"

Daisy looked at you in a forlorn way "You were released from the hospital, Charlie, you've been in a coma for 5 months, you have... a mostly... mild case of... Ummm... Amnesia."

Panic flooded back into you "AMNESIA? COMA? FUCKING WHAT!?"

"Try and stay calm, Charlie..."

"CALM!? FUCK CALM? WHAT'S THERE TO BE CALM ABOUT, FUCK!? FUUUUCK!?" You cried, unable to capture any memory from recent past.

The Blonde waved her hands "J-Just... tell me what you remember last?"

Your clutched your head, trying with all of your might to recall something prior, and luckily... you caught something "I remember... I spent the night with Jane... we umm..." You blushed "I went out to get some extra... protection, met this weird lady, then..." You touched your neck instinctively "I came back, felt a little weird, then we went to bed... And I woke up here..."

Daisy frowned for a moment, but her lips curled to give you a reassuring smile "Charlie that was many months ago... tell me do you... remember anything about your dad?"

Images flew through your head, uncertain and scrambled... until one stuck, one that was pure and unbreakable, instilled in your being. You frowned, quietly, a tear falling down your cheek "He's dead." You whispered.

Daisy nodded sadly "Do you know how?"

"No..." You answered. "Well shit... Diana is gonna be heartbroken."

"I believe your sister already knows..." Daisy interjected.

"R-Right..." You whispered "So... Ummm, 5 months huh? anything interesting happen?" You asked, your voice shaky.

Daisy's Violet eyes looked at you earnestly "I don't know, I haven't been here for long... but... It's my job to help you in any way you need, look after you and all that, sorry about earlier I should have locked the door..."

You smiled, against your better judgement "No, I'm sorry... Jesus christ what the Hell happened to me... I'm so confused I-God the Hospital bill must be HUGE!" You thought in fear.

But Daisy smiled a little "Actually, your Father's fortune was transferred to you, his whole stock, everything..."

Well fuuuck, you're god damn rich! that certainly made you feel a little better, but you saw the look in her eyes "What's the catch?"

She reached down into her purse again and brandished, a red leatherbound journal "Your Funds were under the control of your Benefactors, that being your accountant Ms Salvador... and a friend of your Father's, He left some weird messages for you in here, I have been instructed to only let you read the passages in a certain order, I know-weird as Hell but... here." Daisy opened the journal, careful to hide it's pages from you, carefully flipping through before ripping out a page and handing it to you "There you go, this is where He wanted you to start.

You took the page, blinking in confusion and pushing you glasses up your nose as you began to read, the perfect handwriting that started with:

"Chip... I know you are confused right now, and that you are afraid, but you have to read this, and you have to trust me. A lot had happened while you have been away. Your dad died and I'm sorry for that, we were close, and your manor was destroyed. lucky for you, I have been rebuilding things in the meantime. I am sorry that I can't great you, but I have a wager to win and you have a life to live. As the main controller of your funds in your absence I have relinquished full control back to Ms Salvador your accountant, she will release the Drake-fortune to you (It's all yours, Didi doesn't want it) But only if you resume your life and go back to school, if you don't continue and complete your education, then your dad instructed that your fortune be taken away a disputed into various charities, I have already handled your return with principle Kaz and He and I came to a very certain understanding, you'll have no trouble. Now that's not to say that you can't have a little fun with your funds... god knows you'll gonna want to show off (Especially with Daisy on your arm) but remember, you have to keep your promise.

I don't know what the fallout of... well... I can't say but... something very bad has probably happened to the city by now, I do not know the severity of it, or the damage, but no matter what, you must only do what comes naturally, follow your instincts and everything will go to plan.

Finally... Daisy, I only met her a couple of times by the time readying this, but I trust her, and she is **** than anyone you've ever met, so try and put your trust in her too, no matter what she asks.

Well, I think that's everything for now, Daisy will keep you updated with my journal when the times are right, I know your curious but I emplore you to be patient, trust me, this is not something that you are gonna want to rush.

Enjoy the day, Charlie. I know I would.

Your Old friend: Nox."

You stared at the page for a while, unsure of what to make of it, unsure of what to do... though you did feel a strange kind of... trust, for this Nox whoever they were... and so you folded up the page and nodded "Okay... Okay..." You rubbed your eyes and stood "I am going to get dressed then... I want to go home."

Daisy frowned "You aren't going to stay? You are supposed to head back into the academy Tomorrow?"

You nodded "I'm not going anywhere, as much as I'd like to run away I... I guess whoever this Nox guy is, I trust him. I just... need to see my home, please?" You asked a little timidly.

She grinned "I'm not your Mom, you can do what you want, It's just my job to make sure that you are alright... at all times. Don't you want a pretty girl on your arm?"

You gulped... this was more woman than you knew how to handle, and Jane's beauty was one of the only things that made sense in your mind "I-I guess... come on... I'll umm, I'll drive."

And so you rummaged through the drawers finding clothes that you didn't know you owned, putting on some expensive jeans, dress shoes and a thin black hoodie, tying back your Brown-silverish hair and throwing up your hood, readying to head out into the day.
