Too bad, didn't reach the 10000 a second time
<--- Podarge
*enters the room* Girl - uh, Twilight? I mean, Dawn? *finds the girl asleep from exhaustion*
*looks around*
*notices new pictures*
*grabs one of them and looks at it* The tiger's mouth - *shivers* - the moment it drags her away - *looks at the girl, feeling pity for her*
*grabs another picture* What's this? A wolf? *takes a second look* That wolf looks weird - *stares at the girl* I guess she watched too many monster movies! *gets another picture* Claws grabbing her? How can bird claws be big enough to - wait - they are blue! *confused* *puts the picture away and gets another one* A dragon?! A blue dragon?! *shivers* This child - I guess she drew her nightmares! *looks at another picture and blanches as she sees a female corpse on it*
*looks at the picture that was lying right under that one and starts to shake*
*runs out of the room to grab the phone* A knife - a hand holding a knife - sticky with blood - this girl - does that mean she wants to kill me? *quickly dials Hazel's number and waits*
*waits*
*gets more and more nervous and evebtually hangs up* Guess she's at work - whatever that might be! I hope her phone saves the callers' list. *looks at the picture again and shudders*
*looks at her kitchen* She could easily get out and find a knife!
*silently walks back into the basement, retrieves chain and cuffs and sneaks into the chamber*
*cautiously wraps a handkerchief around the girl's towel and then locks it with the cuff* Sorry, girl - you're too - too scary! *fixes the chain on the ceiling again*
<--- Twilight
*awakes from the noise*
*gets some horrible déjà vu*
*stares in horror at the woman*
*attempts to pull her leg away from the chain but the chain follows until it tautens* Why?
<--- Podarge
I - I'm sorry - but you're just too scary! Or - I mean, can you explain this to me? *shows Twilight the picture with the knife* And this? *shows Twilight the picture with the female corpse* Does that mean you're already dreaming of seeing me dead?!
<--- Twilight
*completely confused* How - how can it mean that? *tries to grasp* *looks at the pics* This - *points at the knife* - is what killed her - *points at the corpse*
<--- Podarge
*impatiently* Yeah, I already suspected that. But why? Or better, WHO is that?
<--- Twilight
*face wet from tears* My - sister -
<--- Podarge
*almost gets overwhelmed by sympathy for the girl but then remembers some thing* Okay, and WHO did that? Did you kill her that way?
<--- Twilight
*stares at Podarge, unable to grasp how she could think that of her* No! I loved her! *grabs another piece of paper and quickly draws a face*
*hands it to Podarge* She did it!
<--- Podarge
*gets the piece of paper and looks at it*
*shivers* Wow! She looks as if she'd attack me every moment! Wait - if this is your memory - did she try to kill you, too?
<--- Twilight
*shakes head* No - this was the last of my sister's memories before her death. I - got it when I finally found her - *wraps arms around herself*
<--- Podarge
*can't really understand what she just heard*
*grabs the remaining pictures and leaves the room*
*locks the door behind herself*
<--- Twilight
*stares at the door for a while*
*then grabs the cuffs and attempts to remove them*
*pulls harder and harder*
*crouches backwards to try to pull her foot through the cuff but fails*
*pulls at the chain*
*tries in many different ways to get rid of the cuffs*
<--- Podarge
*puts the pics aside and makes tea and food*
*as she finished, she unlocks the door to the chamber and enters*
*shocked* What the hell - ?!
*runs over to the chain where the girl obviously hopelessly entangled herself* Damnit, you almost strangled yourself to death! *cautiously removes the chain from the girl's neck* And blood everywhere - *gently frees the girl's arms from the entanglement*
<--- Twilight
*whimpers, only half conscious*
<--- Podarge
*has removed enough of the chain by now to lay the girl down on the sofa*
*examines the girl's ankle* Damn! You excoriated that much - I can see your bones! *cautiously removes the cuffs and the remainings of the handkerchief* Okay, you won. I'll never use that stuff again! *removes the chain and throws it all back into the basement*
*fetches a big bowl with warm water and a towel and sits down next to the girl*
*cautiously washes all the blood away*
<--- Twilight
*mumbles weakly* Don't - don't tie me - please - take it away - please - please - don't tie me - please -
<--- Podarge
I ALREADY TOOK IT AWAY DAMMIT!
<--- Twilight
*winces at the sound*
*curls up, shaking*
<--- Podarge
Damnit, am I that stupid to treat a child correctly?!
*some vague memories arise*
*remembers that she didn't like to be tied up either*
*shivers*
*looks around just to make sure they're alone*
*shortly shakes herself, trying to shake that feeling off*
*slowly and sadly* I - just - did - the same - damn - thing - that - he did - *closes her eyes and shivers*
*opens eyes again and looks at the girl*
Okay now. *rubs her forehead* Let's restart, okay? I'm sorry for my stupidity, but I can't change it anymore. First of all, let's move, this room is depressing me now! I don't assume you can walk now. *sighs*
*gently forces the girl to lie on her back* Stay like this! *quickly examines her* Everything healed, good.
*sits down on the sofa, leans back and holds her hands over her shoulders* Give me your hands!
<--- Twilight
*slowly sticks up her shaking hands*
<--- Podarge
*pulls the girl up, stands and carries the girl on her back now* Are you heavy! *leaves the room and goes upstairs*
*enters the guestroom and stops* Damn - I almost forgot that they were here, too. *lays the girl down on the bed and covers her with the sheet* You must be hungry. I'll be right back!
