Isabel wakes up first, surprised that she's not in the middle of a river in a makeshift raft. She supposed that Maya was too tired to get her and herself off of the roof.

*A bat flies onto the roof, near Isabel and Maya*
Maya sees the bat on the roof, and assuming it is only a creature, she snaps her fingers and is back on the roof. She gathers her things, and gives the grave of her sister one last look.
*The bat transforms into...*
Onyx: *Now in his regular form, he stares at her in shock* W-What just happened...?
Maya, angry: Why do you care?
Onyx: What do you mean by that? *Frowns*
Maya: I mean, why do YOU care that MY SISTER just FELL OFF OF A ROOF!?!
Onyx: *Cringes* I get that, but why wouldn't I care that she... *Sighs* What's your problem with me? I want to help you! You're clearly lost and now this... *Looks away* I'm so sorry about your sister. (I shouldn't have let them leave the house. This never would have happened...)
Maya: SORRY isn't enough.
Maya turns around and sits on the roof.
Maya: Because it's all my fault!
She puts her head in her hands and starts crying, crying until every last tear has left her.
Onyx: It isn't your fault... *Cautiously approaches and sits beside of Maya* You didn't mean for that to happen, okay? Don't blame yourself. *Carefully places a hand on her shoulder, feeling sympathetic*
Maya: Yes, it was my fault. I let myself open up to her... and she took me over, and made me push her off the edge. I killed my own sister, I killed my mother, and she killed my father. I have nobody left. Nobody. Now I have to stop her if I want things to go back to normal, and I can't, because...
Maya stops.
Maya: And YOU. YOU are trying to get information out of me.
She pushes his hand off her shoulder, grabs the stuff she packed up, snaps her fingers and is on the ground. She starts running away from the mansion before you could say "Wait!".
Onyx: *Teleports in front of her* Wait! Maya, was it? *Stoops down to her height* I'm not trying to get information out of you. I don't know what's going on with you... but I know you must be really upset and scared. I don't know if there's anything I can do... but I want to help you. And I'm sure my family would, too. There are a lot of people that came here with no one or nowhere else to go. *Smiles a little* But as long as they're here, they aren't alone. They have someone. You don't have to be alone...
Maya: Fine. But if I decide to leave in the next two weeks you won't stop me. Agreed?
Onyx: Only if you don't decide that the same way you've been deciding it this past day. *Raises an eyebrow* Like randomly accusing me of strange things and running off to sleep on my roof...
Maya: I didn't mean to end up on the roof. I was so tired I just snapped my fingers, then couldn't get us off until this morning. And I'm sorry for accusing you of strange things...
Onyx: *Smiles warmly* Hey, it's alright. Why don't you come inside? I can get you something to eat if you're hungry...
*Someone walks out of the front door and approaches them*
Amelia: Onyx? I've been looking everywhere for you.
Onyx: *Turns to her* Hey. Sorry... I've been a little busy with-
Amelia: *Looks down at Maya* The new guest, I assume? *Smiles* Hello there. What's your name?
Maya: I'm Maya...
Amelia: I'm Amelia. *Smiles* It's nice to meet you.
Onyx: We were just about to come inside. *Smiles too*
Maya: Nice to meet you to...
She walks away from them and decides to explore the mansion, and looking for a place where she can be alone. While exploring, she sees the place where she and her sister entered. Her eyes begin to fill with tears and she runs away from the place, and comes across a library.
Amelia: *Frowns at Onyx* She's so young. Her parents didn't show up with her?
Onyx: *Sighs* She said she doesn't have anyone. (I won't mention her sister. It would upset Amelia to hear something like that...)
Amelia: *Sighs too* I feel bad for her. Can we keep her? *Grins playfully*
Onyx: Something tells me she wouldn't like that. Sorry, Amelia. *Laughs softly and wraps an arm around her* Come on, let's go back inside...
Maya looks around the library... she sees rows and rows of dusty books on high shelves, but there is no ladder and it feels as though the place has not been touched for years... She walks up to a shelf on her right and chooses a random book with a crimson cover. It's title says, "A History of Evil". The copyright print says it was written in the early 1840's!

Onyx: *Cringes* I get that, but why wouldn't I care that she... *Sighs* What's your problem with me? I want to help you! You're clearly lost and now this... *Looks away* I'm so sorry about your sister. (I shouldn't have let them leave the house. This never would have happened...)
Maya: SORRY isn't enough.
Maya turns around and sits on the roof.
Maya: Because it's all my fault!
She puts her head in her hands and starts crying, crying until every last tear has left her.
Onyx: It isn't your fault... *Cautiously approaches and sits beside of Maya* You didn't mean for that to happen, okay? Don't blame yourself. *Carefully places a hand on her shoulder, feeling sympathetic*
Maya: Yes, it was my fault. I let myself open up to her... and she took me over, and made me push her off the edge. I killed my own sister, I killed my mother, and she killed my father. I have nobody left. Nobody. Now I have to stop her if I want things to go back to normal, and I can't, because...
Maya stops.
Maya: And YOU. YOU are trying to get information out of me.
She pushes his hand off her shoulder, grabs the stuff she packed up, snaps her fingers and is on the ground. She starts running away from the mansion before you could say "Wait!".
Onyx: *Teleports in front of her* Wait! Maya, was it? *Stoops down to her height* I'm not trying to get information out of you. I don't know what's going on with you... but I know you must be really upset and scared. I don't know if there's anything I can do... but I want to help you. And I'm sure my family would, too. There are a lot of people that came here with no one or nowhere else to go. *Smiles a little* But as long as they're here, they aren't alone. They have someone. You don't have to be alone...
Maya: Fine. But if I decide to leave in the next two weeks you won't stop me. Agreed?
Onyx: Only if you don't decide that the same way you've been deciding it this past day. *Raises an eyebrow* Like randomly accusing me of strange things and running off to sleep on my roof...
Maya: I didn't mean to end up on the roof. I was so tired I just snapped my fingers, then couldn't get us off until this morning. And I'm sorry for accusing you of strange things...
Onyx: *Smiles warmly* Hey, it's alright. Why don't you come inside? I can get you something to eat if you're hungry...
*Someone walks out of the front door and approaches them*
Amelia: Onyx? I've been looking everywhere for you.
Onyx: *Turns to her* Hey. Sorry... I've been a little busy with-
Amelia: *Looks down at Maya* The new guest, I assume? *Smiles* Hello there. What's your name?
Maya: I'm Maya...
Amelia: I'm Amelia. *Smiles* It's nice to meet you.
Onyx: We were just about to come inside. *Smiles too*
Maya: Nice to meet you to...
She walks away from them and decides to explore the mansion, and looking for a place where she can be alone. While exploring, she sees the place where she and her sister entered. Her eyes begin to fill with tears and she runs away from the place, and comes across a library.
Amelia: *Frowns at Onyx* She's so young. Her parents didn't show up with her?
Onyx: *Sighs* She said she doesn't have anyone. (I won't mention her sister. It would upset Amelia to hear something like that...)
Amelia: *Sighs too* I feel bad for her. Can we keep her? *Grins playfully*
Onyx: Something tells me she wouldn't like that. Sorry, Amelia. *Laughs softly and wraps an arm around her* Come on, let's go back inside...
Maya looks around the library... she sees rows and rows of dusty books on high shelves, but there is no ladder and it feels as though the place has not been touched for years... She walks up to a shelf on her right and chooses a random book with a crimson cover. It's title says, "A History of Evil". The copyright print says it was written in the early 1840's!
*The door to the library opens and closes, and there's the sound of footsteps behind Maya*
Maya quickly puts the book back on the shelf, not caring if it's in the right place or not, and ducks behind a small table
Adiran: *Muttering* Where was that book on how to... *His voice trails off as he starts looking through some books on a shelf, they seem to be mostly related to science and technology*
Maya slinks out from under the table and tries to sneak away, but accidentally knocks over a pile of dusty books and starts coughing.
Adiran: *Startled, he turns to her direction* Hello? *Approaches and frowns when he sees her* (It's a kid...) Hey, you should really be more careful.
Maya rolls her eyes at him and runs out of the library.
*The next morning, everything seems pretty quiet around here...*
Lua: *Jumps on Jaclet bed*
Celeste: *Snuggled up to Macha*
Julia: *In some corner around the house*
Hamlet: *Sound asleep, he didn't even notice*
Macha: *Snoring loudly and clinging to Celeste*
Aurora: *Walks out of Alexander's room, in her pajamas with bed hair and no makeup wow what a rare sight* (What time even is it...?) *Yawns and is about to walk past Julia when she stops* Oh, good morning. *Wow she looks like she didn't sleep at all*
Lua: Mom! Dad! Wake up! *Jump jump*
Celeste: *Snoring just as loud*
Julia: *Smiles weakly at her* Good morning...
Hamlet: *Opens his eyes* What in the...?
Glacier: (What room is Celeste's again...?) *Walking aimlessly down the hallway*
Aurora: *Smiles* So, uh... Is there a reason you're all alone in the corner? *Trying to straighten out her hair a little* (My poor hair. What a mess.)
Jaci: *Sleeping like a rock*
Lua: *Jumps on Hamlet ouch*
Celeste: *Cling cling*
Julia: I couldn't sleep...
Hamlet: *Yelps and sits up* Lua...!
Glacier: *Walks up to Celestcha's door and knocks*
Aurora: Oh. *Frowns* I didn't get any sleep, either. *Laughs a little, there's a slight smirk on her face* (I thought I heard Julia and Fred talking when Alexander said he was snooping last night... Was he eavesdropping on them?)
Lua: *Clings to him* Good morning, dad!
Celeste: Mhm...? *Sits up* (Did someone knock?) *Opens the door*
Julia: I see... *Sees the smirk and frowns a little*
Hamlet: *Laughs a little* Good morning...
Glacier: *At the door* Good morning... *Frowns* Did I wake you? I'm sorry.
Aurora: Just so you know, I'm pretty sure Alexander was snooping on your conversation with Fred last night. Apparently it was pretty juicy. Wanna share the details? I love gossip.
Lua: Is mom still asleep? *Shakes her head*
Celeste: Morning.
Julia: Hm? *Frowns more*
Hamlet: I guess so... *Looks over at Jaci*
Glacier: How are you? *Smiles*
Aurora: I'm asking what's up with you and Fred. *Grins*
Lua: Let's wake her up?
Celeste: gnzgbhnzhsnhnhng....
Julia: W-we're fine...
Hamlet: Right... *Pounces on Jaci*
Glacier: ...Celeste?
Aurora: You sure about that?
Jaci:*Yelps and blushes* H-Hamlet...?
Celeste: Mhmmm....?
Julia: *Nods* Y-yeah... I am...
Hamlet: *Grinning* Good morning, Jaci...
Glacier: ...I suppose I should leave you alone. You're clearly still tired.
Aurora: Okay. *Doesn't seem convinced*
Alexander: *Comes out of his room is it just me or is he sneaking up behind Aurora is Julia gonna snitch or not*
Jaci: *Laughs a little and pulls him into a hug* Good morning...
Lua: *Joins the hug* Morning, mom!
Celeste: Nah... Tell me what you want.
Julia: *Her eyes widen*
Hamlet: *Returns the hug to both of them* So how are you this morning?
Glacier: I... *Pauses* I don't know. I just felt like talking...
Aurora: What? *Starts to turn around*
Alexander: *Pounces and wraps his arms around her waist from behind her, grinning*
Aurora: *Squeals in surprise and then laughs* Alexander!
Alexander: Did I scare you? *Rests his chin on her shoulder*
Aurora: *Blushes* Of course not! Right, Julia? *Aren't they so cute*
Lua: I love you so much...
Celeste *Gets out of the room and closes the door behind her* i'm down. *Rubs her eye*
Julia: *Smiles weakly at them*
Hamlet: I love you too, Lua.
Glacier: So... *Goes awkwardly silent, he wants to be social but he never really got the hang of it...*
Alexander: *Kisses her cheek and lets go of her, then looks at Julia* Good morning, Julia. How did things go with Fred?
Aurora: (I knew there was Fred drama.)
Jaci: We both love you very much. *Running a hand through her hair*
Lua: *...Is she crying?*
Celeste: Is there anything you want to talk about or...?
Julia: Oh... They went... Well. We... *Blushes* We... Made up...
Hamlet: ...Lua...? *Frowns*
Glacier: No, I just... *Looks down I think he's just been so lonely*
Aurora: (That's some awkwardness and blushing...) *Grins at Julia* Oh, you *made up?* That's nice. *Winks*
Alexander: *Frowns* That's... (Disgusting and somehow makes me angry.) ...Great.
Lua: *Clings to Jaci*
Jaci: *Frowns over at Hamlet* Hey... What's wrong?
Celeste: Oh... Well...
Julia: *Blushes more*
Hamlet: *Hugs both of them closer to himself, frowning more*
Glacier: Sorry... I'm just... excited to have someone to talk to again. Since that happened, I haven't really had anyone around.
Aurora: I bet that was fun, huh?
Alexander: *Elbows Aurora* I bet it wasn't. So stop asking her.
*The next morning, everything seems pretty quiet around here...*
Lua: *Jumps on Jaclet bed*

Aurora: Hey!
Lua: *Starts filling Jaci with kisses* I love you, mom...
Jaci: I love you too... Please, don't cry!
Celeste: All good. How has life been treating you?
Julia: *Laughs awkwardly* (It was nothing worth mentioning...)
Hamlet: Lua, what's wrong? *Places a hand on her back*
Glacier: *Looks down* ...Like it always has, I suppose. What about you?
Alexander: *Gives Julia an apologetic glance*
Aurora: What? It's always fun to make up with someone. *Smiles innocently*
Alexander: *Laughs a little and shakes his head* Right. So, um, where is Fred anyway?
Lua: N-nothing... *Wipes her eyes*
Celeste: After being expelled and turned into a cat? Uh... I'm engaged... And pregnant?
Julia: *Sighs* Sleeping, probably.
Hamlet: Something must be wrong...
Glacier: *His eyes widen a little* Pregnant? Well... congratulations.
Alexander: Oh. *Frowns* (She really doesn't seem very happy...) Hey, why don't you hang out with us for a while, then?
Aurora: *Raises an eyebrow at him, but sighs and smiles at Julia* Sounds good to me.
Lua: I can't tell you...
Celeste: Thank you.... *She doesn't seem very enthusiastic*
Julia: I don't want to be a bother...
Hamlet: *His heart sinks a little* Why not?
Glacier: *Frowns* Are you happy about the baby?
Alexander: You're not a bother! Do you like video games? I was just about to bug Aurora to play some with me. It'd be even more fun with three players...
Lua: I don't want to mess up the future...
Celeste: I'm not unhappy.
Julia: I don't really know how to play any video games... *Frowns*
Hamlet: ...Does something bad happen?
Glacier: Are you indifferent?
Alexander: It's not too late to learn, right? Come on, have some fun! *Takes her hand oh he's tugging her along to his room*
Aurora: *Quickly grabs his other hand and follows*
Lua: I can't tell you, dad...
Celeste: Well... *Nods* I guess you can say that. But Macha is really excited.
Julia: *Giggles and follows*
Hamlet: *Sighs and looks down* Right...
Glacier: That's... good, then. *Nods and tries to smile*
Alexander: *Lets go of their hands once they're in the room and grabs three handheld game systems how many does he even have*
Aurora: Let me guess. Pokemon?
Alexander: Of course. *Turns the games on and hands one to Julia and one to Aurora*
*Why does Julia's game have a team of pokemon lead by a Zoroark named Onyx-- is she playing Amelia's copy *
Aurora: *Preparing all of her glamorous pokemon for battle*
Alexander: Julia, do you want to battle me or Aurora first? *Grins*
Lua: Take care of mom for me while i can't...
Jaci: *Swallows*
Celeste: *Looks down at her stomach, seeming deep in thought*
Julia: I... Uh... You?
Hamlet: ...You know I'll always take care of her...
Glacier: *Follows her gaze to her stomach* ...Do you want a boy or a girl? *Trying so hard to find conversation*
Alexander: Okay. *Sets that up and shows her the controls* ...So you just tap whatever attack you want your pokemon to use against mine. Got it?
Lua: *Smiles sadly at him*
Celeste: I want a lizard.
Julia: I guess i did...
Hamlet: (What is she hiding? What's the future like?) *Looks down*
Glacier: Lizards are unsanitary. They carry salmonella.
Alexander: Great! You get the first turn. *Prepares for the intense battle with this big scary looking pokemon*
Aurora: He's going to pulverize you.
Lua: Are you hungry?
Celeste: Good.
Julia: *Taps something random*
Hamlet: Not really. Are you?
Glacier: How is that good...?
*The attack is super effective*
Aurora: Beginner's luck...
Alexander: *Taps something that purposely does little damage and cringes* Uh oh. Bad move...
Aurora: You should have known that wouldn't work against a Pokemon of that type.
Alexander: Since when did you become a Pokemon expert?
Aurora: Since I got determined to beat you at it. *Grins*
Lua: A little...
Celeste: *Grins at him*
Julia: *Grins* (Am i really that good?)
Hamlet: Want some hamster food?
Glacier: *Looks a little scared *
Alexander: *Grins and keeps playing against her, losing badly... it's so embarrassing*
Aurora: *Watching in disbelief*
Lua: *Nods* Please!
Celeste: Do you have any plans... For the future..?
Julia: *Smiling* Am i really that good?
Hamlet: Okay, let's go. *Gets out of bed and heads for his habitat, where the hamster food is*
Glacier: Me? I... *Pauses* I haven't thought about it since I ran away.
Alexander: Wow, you're amazing. You beat me. *Grins*
Aurora: How!?
Lua: *Follows*
Celeste: *Frowns*
Julia: How? *Beaming*
Hamlet: *Turns into hamster form and gets in, then heads for the food bowl* (...It's empty!)
Glacier: What about you? Any future plans...?
Alexander: You're a natural! Great job, Julia.
Aurora: *In disbelief*
Lua: *Does the same*
Celeste: Well... I'm going to marry Macha... And we'll have a baby... *She frowns a little*
Isabel wakes up first, surprised that she's not in the middle of a river in a makeshift raft. She supposed that Maya was too tired to get her and herself off of the roof.
@nerdfashion
*A bat flies onto the roof, near Isabel and Maya*
Maya sees the bat on the roof, and assuming it is only a creature, she snaps her fingers and is back on the roof. She gathers her things, and gives the grave of her sister one last look.
*The bat transforms into...*
Onyx: *Now in his regular form, he stares at her in shock* W-What just happened...?
Maya, angry: Why do you care?
Onyx: What do you mean by that? *Frowns*
Maya: I mean, why do YOU care that MY SISTER just FELL OFF OF A ROOF!?!
Onyx: *Cringes* I get that, but why wouldn't I care that she... *Sighs* What's your problem with me? I want to help you! You're clearly lost and now this... *Looks away* I'm so sorry about your sister. (I shouldn't have let them leave the house. This never would have happened...)

Glacier: No, I just... *Looks down I think he's just been so lonely*
Aurora: (That's some awkwardness and blushing...) *Grins at Julia* Oh, you *made up?* That's nice. *Winks*
Alexander: *Frowns* That's... (Disgusting and somehow makes me angry.) ...Great.
Lua: *Clings to Jaci*
Jaci: *Frowns over at Hamlet* Hey... What's wrong?
Celeste: Oh... Well...
Julia: *Blushes more*
Hamlet: *Hugs both of them closer to himself, frowning more*
Glacier: Sorry... I'm just... excited to have someone to talk to again. Since that happened, I haven't really had anyone around.
Aurora: I bet that was fun, huh?
Alexander: *Elbows Aurora* I bet it wasn't. So stop asking her.
*The next morning, everything seems pretty quiet around here...*
Lua: *Jumps on Jaclet bed*
Celeste: *Snuggled up to Macha*
Julia: *In some corner around the house*
Hamlet: *Sound asleep, he didn't even notice*
Macha: *Snoring loudly and clinging to Celeste*
Aurora: *Walks out of Alexander's room, in her pajamas with bed hair and no makeup wow what a rare sight* (What time even is it...?) *Yawns and is about to walk past Julia when she stops* Oh, good morning. *Wow she looks like she didn't sleep at all*
Lua: Mom! Dad! Wake up! *Jump jump*
Celeste: *Snoring just as loud*
Julia: *Smiles weakly at her* Good morning...
Hamlet: *Opens his eyes* What in the...?
Glacier: (What room is Celeste's again...?) *Walking aimlessly down the hallway*
Aurora: *Smiles* So, uh... Is there a reason you're all alone in the corner? *Trying to straighten out her hair a little* (My poor hair. What a mess.)
Jaci: *Sleeping like a rock*
Lua: *Jumps on Hamlet ouch*
Celeste: *Cling cling*
Julia: I couldn't sleep...
Hamlet: *Yelps and sits up* Lua...!
Glacier: *Walks up to Celestcha's door and knocks*
Aurora: Oh. *Frowns* I didn't get any sleep, either. *Laughs a little, there's a slight smirk on her face* (I thought I heard Julia and Fred talking when Alexander said he was snooping last night... Was he eavesdropping on them?)
Lua: *Clings to him* Good morning, dad!
Celeste: Mhm...? *Sits up* (Did someone knock?) *Opens the door*
Julia: I see... *Sees the smirk and frowns a little*
Hamlet: *Laughs a little* Good morning...
Glacier: *At the door* Good morning... *Frowns* Did I wake you? I'm sorry.
Aurora: Just so you know, I'm pretty sure Alexander was snooping on your conversation with Fred last night. Apparently it was pretty juicy. Wanna share the details? I love gossip.
Lua: Is mom still asleep? *Shakes her head*
Celeste: Morning.
Julia: Hm? *Frowns more*
Hamlet: I guess so... *Looks over at Jaci*
Glacier: How are you? *Smiles*
Aurora: I'm asking what's up with you and Fred. *Grins*
Lua: Let's wake her up?
Celeste: gnzgbhnzhsnhnhng....
Julia: W-we're fine...
Hamlet: Right... *Pounces on Jaci*
Glacier: ...Celeste?
Aurora: You sure about that?
Jaci:*Yelps and blushes* H-Hamlet...?
Celeste: Mhmmm....?
Julia: *Nods* Y-yeah... I am...
Hamlet: *Grinning* Good morning, Jaci...
Glacier: ...I suppose I should leave you alone. You're clearly still tired.
Aurora: Okay. *Doesn't seem convinced*
Alexander: *Comes out of his room is it just me or is he sneaking up behind Aurora is Julia gonna snitch or not*
Jaci: *Laughs a little and pulls him into a hug* Good morning...
Lua: *Joins the hug* Morning, mom!
Celeste: Nah... Tell me what you want.
Julia: *Her eyes widen*
Hamlet: *Returns the hug to both of them* So how are you this morning?
Glacier: I... *Pauses* I don't know. I just felt like talking...
Aurora: What? *Starts to turn around*
Alexander: *Pounces and wraps his arms around her waist from behind her, grinning*
Aurora: *Squeals in surprise and then laughs* Alexander!
Alexander: Did I scare you? *Rests his chin on her shoulder*
Aurora: *Blushes* Of course not! Right, Julia? *Aren't they so cute*
Lua: I love you so much...
Celeste *Gets out of the room and closes the door behind her* i'm down. *Rubs her eye*
Julia: *Smiles weakly at them*
Hamlet: I love you too, Lua.
Glacier: So... *Goes awkwardly silent, he wants to be social but he never really got the hang of it...*
Alexander: *Kisses her cheek and lets go of her, then looks at Julia* Good morning, Julia. How did things go with Fred?
Aurora: (I knew there was Fred drama.)
Jaci: We both love you very much. *Running a hand through her hair*
Lua: *...Is she crying?*
Celeste: Is there anything you want to talk about or...?
Julia: Oh... They went... Well. We... *Blushes* We... Made up...
Hamlet: ...Lua...? *Frowns*
Glacier: No, I just... *Looks down I think he's just been so lonely*
Aurora: (That's some awkwardness and blushing...) *Grins at Julia* Oh, you *made up?* That's nice. *Winks*
Alexander: *Frowns* That's... (Disgusting and somehow makes me angry.) ...Great.

Aurora: I bet that was fun, huh?
Alexander: *Elbows Aurora* I bet it wasn't. So stop asking her.
Aurora: Hey!
Lua: *Starts filling Jaci with kisses* I love you, mom...
Jaci: I love you too... Please, don't cry!
Celeste: All good. How has life been treating you?
Julia: *Laughs awkwardly* (It was nothing worth mentioning...)
Hamlet: Lua, what's wrong? *Places a hand on her back*
Glacier: *Looks down* ...Like it always has, I suppose. What about you?
Alexander: *Gives Julia an apologetic glance*
Aurora: What? It's always fun to make up with someone. *Smiles innocently*
Alexander: *Laughs a little and shakes his head* Right. So, um, where is Fred anyway?
Lua: N-nothing... *Wipes her eyes*
Celeste: After being expelled and turned into a cat? Uh... I'm engaged... And pregnant?
Julia: *Sighs* Sleeping, probably.
Hamlet: Something must be wrong...
Glacier: *His eyes widen a little* Pregnant? Well... congratulations.
Alexander: Oh. *Frowns* (She really doesn't seem very happy...) Hey, why don't you hang out with us for a while, then?
Aurora: *Raises an eyebrow at him, but sighs and smiles at Julia* Sounds good to me.
Lua: I can't tell you...
Celeste: Thank you.... *She doesn't seem very enthusiastic*
Julia: I don't want to be a bother...
Hamlet: *His heart sinks a little* Why not?
Glacier: *Frowns* Are you happy about the baby?
Alexander: You're not a bother! Do you like video games? I was just about to bug Aurora to play some with me. It'd be even more fun with three players...
Lua: I don't want to mess up the future...
Celeste: I'm not unhappy.
Julia: I don't really know how to play any video games... *Frowns*
Hamlet: ...Does something bad happen?
Glacier: Are you indifferent?
Alexander: It's not too late to learn, right? Come on, have some fun! *Takes her hand oh he's tugging her along to his room*
Aurora: *Quickly grabs his other hand and follows*
Lua: I can't tell you, dad...
Celeste: Well... *Nods* I guess you can say that. But Macha is really excited.
Julia: *Giggles and follows*
Hamlet: *Sighs and looks down* Right...
Glacier: That's... good, then. *Nods and tries to smile*
Alexander: *Lets go of their hands once they're in the room and grabs three handheld game systems how many does he even have*
Aurora: Let me guess. Pokemon?
Alexander: Of course. *Turns the games on and hands one to Julia and one to Aurora*
*Why does Julia's game have a team of pokemon lead by a Zoroark named Onyx-- is she playing Amelia's copy *
Aurora: *Preparing all of her glamorous pokemon for battle*
Alexander: Julia, do you want to battle me or Aurora first? *Grins*
Lua: Take care of mom for me while i can't...
Jaci: *Swallows*
Celeste: *Looks down at her stomach, seeming deep in thought*
Julia: I... Uh... You?
Hamlet: ...You know I'll always take care of her...
Glacier: *Follows her gaze to her stomach* ...Do you want a boy or a girl? *Trying so hard to find conversation*
Alexander: Okay. *Sets that up and shows her the controls* ...So you just tap whatever attack you want your pokemon to use against mine. Got it?
Lua: *Smiles sadly at him*
Celeste: I want a lizard.
Julia: I guess i did...
Hamlet: (What is she hiding? What's the future like?) *Looks down*
Glacier: Lizards are unsanitary. They carry salmonella.
Alexander: Great! You get the first turn. *Prepares for the intense battle with this big scary looking pokemon*
Aurora: He's going to pulverize you.
Lua: Are you hungry?
Celeste: Good.
Julia: *Taps something random*
Hamlet: Not really. Are you?
Glacier: How is that good...?
*The attack is super effective*
Aurora: Beginner's luck...
Alexander: *Taps something that purposely does little damage and cringes* Uh oh. Bad move...
Aurora: You should have known that wouldn't work against a Pokemon of that type.
Alexander: Since when did you become a Pokemon expert?
Aurora: Since I got determined to beat you at it. *Grins*
Lua: A little...
Celeste: *Grins at him*
Julia: *Grins* (Am i really that good?)
Hamlet: Want some hamster food?
Glacier: *Looks a little scared *
Alexander: *Grins and keeps playing against her, losing badly... it's so embarrassing*
Aurora: *Watching in disbelief*
Lua: *Nods* Please!
Celeste: Do you have any plans... For the future..?
Julia: *Smiling* Am i really that good?
Hamlet: Okay, let's go. *Gets out of bed and heads for his habitat, where the hamster food is*
Glacier: Me? I... *Pauses* I haven't thought about it since I ran away.
Alexander: Wow, you're amazing. You beat me. *Grins*
Aurora: How!?
Lua: *Follows*
Celeste: *Frowns*
Julia: How? *Beaming*
Hamlet: *Turns into hamster form and gets in, then heads for the food bowl* (...It's empty!)
Glacier: What about you? Any future plans...?
Alexander: You're a natural! Great job, Julia.
Aurora: *In disbelief*
Lua: *Does the same*
Celeste: Well... I'm going to marry Macha... And we'll have a baby... *She frowns a little*
Julia: *Aww look at her smile*
Hamlet: I can't believe it. Onyx and Amelia forgot to feed me! *Boy you can get your own food*
Glacier: *Frowns when she frowns* Well... I suppose that's nice?
Alexander: So, what did you think? Was it fun?

Julia: W-we're fine...
Hamlet: Right... *Pounces on Jaci*
Glacier: ...Celeste?
Aurora: You sure about that?
Jaci:*Yelps and blushes* H-Hamlet...?
Celeste: Mhmmm....?
Julia: *Nods* Y-yeah... I am...
Hamlet: *Grinning* Good morning, Jaci...
Glacier: ...I suppose I should leave you alone. You're clearly still tired.
Aurora: Okay. *Doesn't seem convinced*
Alexander: *Comes out of his room is it just me or is he sneaking up behind Aurora is Julia gonna snitch or not*
Jaci: *Laughs a little and pulls him into a hug* Good morning...
Lua: *Joins the hug* Morning, mom!
Celeste: Nah... Tell me what you want.
Julia: *Her eyes widen*
Hamlet: *Returns the hug to both of them* So how are you this morning?
Glacier: I... *Pauses* I don't know. I just felt like talking...
Aurora: What? *Starts to turn around*
Alexander: *Pounces and wraps his arms around her waist from behind her, grinning*
Aurora: *Squeals in surprise and then laughs* Alexander!
Alexander: Did I scare you? *Rests his chin on her shoulder*
Aurora: *Blushes* Of course not! Right, Julia? *Aren't they so cute*
Lua: I love you so much...
Celeste *Gets out of the room and closes the door behind her* i'm down. *Rubs her eye*
Julia: *Smiles weakly at them*
Hamlet: I love you too, Lua.
Glacier: So... *Goes awkwardly silent, he wants to be social but he never really got the hang of it...*
Alexander: *Kisses her cheek and lets go of her, then looks at Julia* Good morning, Julia. How did things go with Fred?
Aurora: (I knew there was Fred drama.)
Jaci: We both love you very much. *Running a hand through her hair*
Lua: *...Is she crying?*
Celeste: Is there anything you want to talk about or...?
Julia: Oh... They went... Well. We... *Blushes* We... Made up...
Hamlet: ...Lua...? *Frowns*
Glacier: No, I just... *Looks down I think he's just been so lonely*
Aurora: (That's some awkwardness and blushing...) *Grins at Julia* Oh, you *made up?* That's nice. *Winks*
Alexander: *Frowns* That's... (Disgusting and somehow makes me angry.) ...Great.
Lua: *Clings to Jaci*
Jaci: *Frowns over at Hamlet* Hey... What's wrong?
Celeste: Oh... Well...
Julia: *Blushes more*
Hamlet: *Hugs both of them closer to himself, frowning more*
Glacier: Sorry... I'm just... excited to have someone to talk to again. Since that happened, I haven't really had anyone around.
Aurora: I bet that was fun, huh?
Alexander: *Elbows Aurora* I bet it wasn't. So stop asking her.
*The next morning, everything seems pretty quiet around here...*
Lua: *Jumps on Jaclet bed*
Celeste: *Snuggled up to Macha*
Julia: *In some corner around the house*
Hamlet: *Sound asleep, he didn't even notice*
Macha: *Snoring loudly and clinging to Celeste*
Aurora: *Walks out of Alexander's room, in her pajamas with bed hair and no makeup wow what a rare sight* (What time even is it...?) *Yawns and is about to walk past Julia when she stops* Oh, good morning. *Wow she looks like she didn't sleep at all*
Lua: Mom! Dad! Wake up! *Jump jump*
Celeste: *Snoring just as loud*
Julia: *Smiles weakly at her* Good morning...
Hamlet: *Opens his eyes* What in the...?
Glacier: (What room is Celeste's again...?) *Walking aimlessly down the hallway*
Aurora: *Smiles* So, uh... Is there a reason you're all alone in the corner? *Trying to straighten out her hair a little* (My poor hair. What a mess.)
Jaci: *Sleeping like a rock*
Lua: *Jumps on Hamlet ouch*
Celeste: *Cling cling*
Julia: I couldn't sleep...
Hamlet: *Yelps and sits up* Lua...!
Glacier: *Walks up to Celestcha's door and knocks*
Aurora: Oh. *Frowns* I didn't get any sleep, either. *Laughs a little, there's a slight smirk on her face* (I thought I heard Julia and Fred talking when Alexander said he was snooping last night... Was he eavesdropping on them?)
Lua: *Clings to him* Good morning, dad!
Celeste: Mhm...? *Sits up* (Did someone knock?) *Opens the door*
Julia: I see... *Sees the smirk and frowns a little*
Hamlet: *Laughs a little* Good morning...
Glacier: *At the door* Good morning... *Frowns* Did I wake you? I'm sorry.
Aurora: Just so you know, I'm pretty sure Alexander was snooping on your conversation with Fred last night. Apparently it was pretty juicy. Wanna share the details? I love gossip.
Lua: Is mom still asleep? *Shakes her head*
Celeste: Morning.
Julia: Hm? *Frowns more*
Hamlet: I guess so... *Looks over at Jaci*
Glacier: How are you? *Smiles*
Aurora: I'm asking what's up with you and Fred. *Grins*
Lua: Let's wake her up?
Celeste: gnzgbhnzhsnhnhng....

Aurora: Hey!
Lua: *Starts filling Jaci with kisses* I love you, mom...
Jaci: I love you too... Please, don't cry!
Celeste: All good. How has life been treating you?
Julia: *Laughs awkwardly* (It was nothing worth mentioning...)
Hamlet: Lua, what's wrong? *Places a hand on her back*
Glacier: *Looks down* ...Like it always has, I suppose. What about you?
Alexander: *Gives Julia an apologetic glance*
Aurora: What? It's always fun to make up with someone. *Smiles innocently*
Alexander: *Laughs a little and shakes his head* Right. So, um, where is Fred anyway?
Lua: N-nothing... *Wipes her eyes*
Celeste: After being expelled and turned into a cat? Uh... I'm engaged... And pregnant?
Julia: *Sighs* Sleeping, probably.
Hamlet: Something must be wrong...
Glacier: *His eyes widen a little* Pregnant? Well... congratulations.
Alexander: Oh. *Frowns* (She really doesn't seem very happy...) Hey, why don't you hang out with us for a while, then?
Aurora: *Raises an eyebrow at him, but sighs and smiles at Julia* Sounds good to me.
Lua: I can't tell you...
Celeste: Thank you.... *She doesn't seem very enthusiastic*
Julia: I don't want to be a bother...
Hamlet: *His heart sinks a little* Why not?
Glacier: *Frowns* Are you happy about the baby?
Alexander: You're not a bother! Do you like video games? I was just about to bug Aurora to play some with me. It'd be even more fun with three players...
Lua: I don't want to mess up the future...
Celeste: I'm not unhappy.
Julia: I don't really know how to play any video games... *Frowns*
Hamlet: ...Does something bad happen?
Glacier: Are you indifferent?
Alexander: It's not too late to learn, right? Come on, have some fun! *Takes her hand oh he's tugging her along to his room*
Aurora: *Quickly grabs his other hand and follows*
Lua: I can't tell you, dad...
Celeste: Well... *Nods* I guess you can say that. But Macha is really excited.
Julia: *Giggles and follows*
Hamlet: *Sighs and looks down* Right...
Glacier: That's... good, then. *Nods and tries to smile*
Alexander: *Lets go of their hands once they're in the room and grabs three handheld game systems how many does he even have*
Aurora: Let me guess. Pokemon?
Alexander: Of course. *Turns the games on and hands one to Julia and one to Aurora*
*Why does Julia's game have a team of pokemon lead by a Zoroark named Onyx-- is she playing Amelia's copy *
Aurora: *Preparing all of her glamorous pokemon for battle*
Alexander: Julia, do you want to battle me or Aurora first? *Grins*
Lua: Take care of mom for me while i can't...
Jaci: *Swallows*
Celeste: *Looks down at her stomach, seeming deep in thought*
Julia: I... Uh... You?
Hamlet: ...You know I'll always take care of her...
Glacier: *Follows her gaze to her stomach* ...Do you want a boy or a girl? *Trying so hard to find conversation*
Alexander: Okay. *Sets that up and shows her the controls* ...So you just tap whatever attack you want your pokemon to use against mine. Got it?
Lua: *Smiles sadly at him*
Celeste: I want a lizard.
Julia: I guess i did...
Hamlet: (What is she hiding? What's the future like?) *Looks down*
Glacier: Lizards are unsanitary. They carry salmonella.
Alexander: Great! You get the first turn. *Prepares for the intense battle with this big scary looking pokemon*
Aurora: He's going to pulverize you.
Lua: Are you hungry?
Celeste: Good.
Julia: *Taps something random*
Hamlet: Not really. Are you?
Glacier: How is that good...?
*The attack is super effective*
Aurora: Beginner's luck...
Alexander: *Taps something that purposely does little damage and cringes* Uh oh. Bad move...
Aurora: You should have known that wouldn't work against a Pokemon of that type.
Alexander: Since when did you become a Pokemon expert?
Aurora: Since I got determined to beat you at it. *Grins*
Lua: A little...
Celeste: *Grins at him*
Julia: *Grins* (Am i really that good?)
Hamlet: Want some hamster food?
Glacier: *Looks a little scared *
Alexander: *Grins and keeps playing against her, losing badly... it's so embarrassing*
Aurora: *Watching in disbelief*
Lua: *Nods* Please!
Celeste: Do you have any plans... For the future..?
Julia: *Smiling* Am i really that good?
Hamlet: Okay, let's go. *Gets out of bed and heads for his habitat, where the hamster food is*
Glacier: Me? I... *Pauses* I haven't thought about it since I ran away.
Alexander: Wow, you're amazing. You beat me. *Grins*
Aurora: How!?
Lua: *Follows*
Celeste: *Frowns*
Julia: How? *Beaming*
Hamlet: *Turns into hamster form and gets in, then heads for the food bowl* (...It's empty!)
Glacier: What about you? Any future plans...?
Alexander: You're a natural! Great job, Julia.
Aurora: *In disbelief*
Lua: *Does the same*
Celeste: Well... I'm going to marry Macha... And we'll have a baby... *She frowns a little*
Julia: *Aww look at her smile*
Hamlet: I can't believe it. Onyx and Amelia forgot to feed me! *Boy you can get your own food*
Glacier: *Frowns when she frowns* Well... I suppose that's nice?
Alexander: So, what did you think? Was it fun?
Lua: *Frowns* Can't you just get it by yourself?
Celeste: (It's not really what i wanted to do with my life... I do love Macha, but...)
Julia: *Beaming* It was!
Hamlet: I mean, I guess so, but just because they know I'm a human too now doesn't mean they shouldn't keep spoiling me.
Glacier: You don't seem very excited about it...
Alexander: *Grins* Great! Wanna play again?

Isabel wakes up first, surprised that she's not in the middle of a river in a makeshift raft. She supposed that Maya was too tired to get her and herself off of the roof.
@nerdfashion
*A bat flies onto the roof, near Isabel and Maya*
Maya sees the bat on the roof, and assuming it is only a creature, she snaps her fingers and is back on the roof. She gathers her things, and gives the grave of her sister one last look.
*The bat transforms into...*
Onyx: *Now in his regular form, he stares at her in shock* W-What just happened...?
Maya, angry: Why do you care?
Onyx: What do you mean by that? *Frowns*
Maya: I mean, why do YOU care that MY SISTER just FELL OFF OF A ROOF!?!
Onyx: *Cringes* I get that, but why wouldn't I care that she... *Sighs* What's your problem with me? I want to help you! You're clearly lost and now this... *Looks away* I'm so sorry about your sister. (I shouldn't have let them leave the house. This never would have happened...)
Maya: SORRY isn't enough.
Maya turns around and sits on the roof.
Maya: Because it's all my fault!
She puts her head in her hands and starts crying, crying until every last tear has left her.
Onyx: It isn't your fault... *Cautiously approaches and sits beside of Maya* You didn't mean for that to happen, okay? Don't blame yourself. *Carefully places a hand on her shoulder, feeling sympathetic*
Maya: Yes, it was my fault. I let myself open up to her... and she took me over, and made me push her off the edge. I killed my own sister, I killed my mother, and she killed my father. I have nobody left. Nobody. Now I have to stop her if I want things to go back to normal, and I can't, because...
Maya stops.
Maya: And YOU. YOU are trying to get information out of me.
She pushes his hand off her shoulder, grabs the stuff she packed up, snaps her fingers and is on the ground. She starts running away from the mansion before you could say "Wait!".
Onyx: *Teleports in front of her* Wait! Maya, was it? *Stoops down to her height* I'm not trying to get information out of you. I don't know what's going on with you... but I know you must be really upset and scared. I don't know if there's anything I can do... but I want to help you. And I'm sure my family would, too. There are a lot of people that came here with no one or nowhere else to go. *Smiles a little* But as long as they're here, they aren't alone. They have someone. You don't have to be alone...
Maya: Fine. But if I decide to leave in the next two weeks you won't stop me. Agreed?
Onyx: Only if you don't decide that the same way you've been deciding it this past day. *Raises an eyebrow* Like randomly accusing me of strange things and running off to sleep on my roof...
Maya: I didn't mean to end up on the roof. I was so tired I just snapped my fingers, then couldn't get us off until this morning. And I'm sorry for accusing you of strange things...
Onyx: *Smiles warmly* Hey, it's alright. Why don't you come inside? I can get you something to eat if you're hungry...
*Someone walks out of the front door and approaches them*
Amelia: Onyx? I've been looking everywhere for you.
Onyx: *Turns to her* Hey. Sorry... I've been a little busy with-
Amelia: *Looks down at Maya* The new guest, I assume? *Smiles* Hello there. What's your name?
Maya: I'm Maya...
Amelia: I'm Amelia. *Smiles* It's nice to meet you.
Onyx: We were just about to come inside. *Smiles too*
Maya: Nice to meet you to...
She walks away from them and decides to explore the mansion, and looking for a place where she can be alone. While exploring, she sees the place where she and her sister entered. Her eyes begin to fill with tears and she runs away from the place, and comes across a library.
Amelia: *Frowns at Onyx* She's so young. Her parents didn't show up with her?
Onyx: *Sighs* She said she doesn't have anyone. (I won't mention her sister. It would upset Amelia to hear something like that...)
Amelia: *Sighs too* I feel bad for her. Can we keep her? *Grins playfully*
Onyx: Something tells me she wouldn't like that. Sorry, Amelia. *Laughs softly and wraps an arm around her* Come on, let's go back inside...
Maya looks around the library... she sees rows and rows of dusty books on high shelves, but there is no ladder and it feels as though the place has not been touched for years... She walks up to a shelf on her right and chooses a random book with a crimson cover. It's title says, "A History of Evil". The copyright print says it was written in the early 1840's!
*The door to the library opens and closes, and there's the sound of footsteps behind Maya*
Maya quickly puts the book back on the shelf, not caring if it's in the right place or not, and ducks behind a small table
Adiran: *Muttering* Where was that book on how to... *His voice trails off as he starts looking through some books on a shelf, they seem to be mostly related to science and technology*
Maya slinks out from under the table and tries to sneak away, but accidentally knocks over a pile of dusty books and starts coughing.
Adiran: *Startled, he turns to her direction* Hello? *Approaches and frowns when he sees her* (It's a kid...) Hey, you should really be more careful.
Maya rolls her eyes at him and runs out of the library.
Adiran: Hey, wait! Keep running inside and you'll break something! *Quickly walks after her*
Maya easily outruns Adiran and hides behind some curtains. After he passes, she quietly and carefully walks back to the library.

Hamlet: *Hugs both of them closer to himself, frowning more*
Glacier: Sorry... I'm just... excited to have someone to talk to again. Since that happened, I haven't really had anyone around.
Aurora: I bet that was fun, huh?
Alexander: *Elbows Aurora* I bet it wasn't. So stop asking her.
*The next morning, everything seems pretty quiet around here...*
Lua: *Jumps on Jaclet bed*
Celeste: *Snuggled up to Macha*
Julia: *In some corner around the house*
Hamlet: *Sound asleep, he didn't even notice*
Macha: *Snoring loudly and clinging to Celeste*
Aurora: *Walks out of Alexander's room, in her pajamas with bed hair and no makeup wow what a rare sight* (What time even is it...?) *Yawns and is about to walk past Julia when she stops* Oh, good morning. *Wow she looks like she didn't sleep at all*
Lua: Mom! Dad! Wake up! *Jump jump*
Celeste: *Snoring just as loud*
Julia: *Smiles weakly at her* Good morning...
Hamlet: *Opens his eyes* What in the...?
Glacier: (What room is Celeste's again...?) *Walking aimlessly down the hallway*
Aurora: *Smiles* So, uh... Is there a reason you're all alone in the corner? *Trying to straighten out her hair a little* (My poor hair. What a mess.)
Jaci: *Sleeping like a rock*
Lua: *Jumps on Hamlet ouch*
Celeste: *Cling cling*
Julia: I couldn't sleep...
Hamlet: *Yelps and sits up* Lua...!
Glacier: *Walks up to Celestcha's door and knocks*
Aurora: Oh. *Frowns* I didn't get any sleep, either. *Laughs a little, there's a slight smirk on her face* (I thought I heard Julia and Fred talking when Alexander said he was snooping last night... Was he eavesdropping on them?)
Lua: *Clings to him* Good morning, dad!
Celeste: Mhm...? *Sits up* (Did someone knock?) *Opens the door*
Julia: I see... *Sees the smirk and frowns a little*
Hamlet: *Laughs a little* Good morning...
Glacier: *At the door* Good morning... *Frowns* Did I wake you? I'm sorry.
Aurora: Just so you know, I'm pretty sure Alexander was snooping on your conversation with Fred last night. Apparently it was pretty juicy. Wanna share the details? I love gossip.
Lua: Is mom still asleep? *Shakes her head*
Celeste: Morning.
Julia: Hm? *Frowns more*
Hamlet: I guess so... *Looks over at Jaci*
Glacier: How are you? *Smiles*
Aurora: I'm asking what's up with you and Fred. *Grins*
Lua: Let's wake her up?
Celeste: gnzgbhnzhsnhnhng....
Julia: W-we're fine...
Hamlet: Right... *Pounces on Jaci*
Glacier: ...Celeste?
Aurora: You sure about that?
Jaci:*Yelps and blushes* H-Hamlet...?
Celeste: Mhmmm....?
Julia: *Nods* Y-yeah... I am...
Hamlet: *Grinning* Good morning, Jaci...
Glacier: ...I suppose I should leave you alone. You're clearly still tired.
Aurora: Okay. *Doesn't seem convinced*
Alexander: *Comes out of his room is it just me or is he sneaking up behind Aurora is Julia gonna snitch or not*
Jaci: *Laughs a little and pulls him into a hug* Good morning...
Lua: *Joins the hug* Morning, mom!
Celeste: Nah... Tell me what you want.
Julia: *Her eyes widen*
Hamlet: *Returns the hug to both of them* So how are you this morning?
Glacier: I... *Pauses* I don't know. I just felt like talking...
Aurora: What? *Starts to turn around*
Alexander: *Pounces and wraps his arms around her waist from behind her, grinning*
Aurora: *Squeals in surprise and then laughs* Alexander!
Alexander: Did I scare you? *Rests his chin on her shoulder*
Aurora: *Blushes* Of course not! Right, Julia? *Aren't they so cute*
Lua: I love you so much...
Celeste *Gets out of the room and closes the door behind her* i'm down. *Rubs her eye*
Julia: *Smiles weakly at them*
Hamlet: I love you too, Lua.
Glacier: So... *Goes awkwardly silent, he wants to be social but he never really got the hang of it...*
Alexander: *Kisses her cheek and lets go of her, then looks at Julia* Good morning, Julia. How did things go with Fred?
Aurora: (I knew there was Fred drama.)
Jaci: We both love you very much. *Running a hand through her hair*
Lua: *...Is she crying?*
Celeste: Is there anything you want to talk about or...?
Julia: Oh... They went... Well. We... *Blushes* We... Made up...
Hamlet: ...Lua...? *Frowns*
Glacier: No, I just... *Looks down I think he's just been so lonely*
Aurora: (That's some awkwardness and blushing...) *Grins at Julia* Oh, you *made up?* That's nice. *Winks*
Alexander: *Frowns* That's... (Disgusting and somehow makes me angry.) ...Great.
Lua: *Clings to Jaci*
Jaci: *Frowns over at Hamlet* Hey... What's wrong?
Celeste: Oh... Well...
Julia: *Blushes more*
Hamlet: *Hugs both of them closer to himself, frowning more*
Glacier: Sorry... I'm just... excited to have someone to talk to again. Since that happened, I haven't really had anyone around.
Aurora: I bet that was fun, huh?
Alexander: *Elbows Aurora* I bet it wasn't. So stop asking her.
Aurora: Hey!
Lua: *Starts filling Jaci with kisses* I love you, mom...
Jaci: I love you too... Please, don't cry!
Celeste: All good. How has life been treating you?
Julia: *Laughs awkwardly* (It was nothing worth mentioning...)
Hamlet: Lua, what's wrong? *Places a hand on her back*
Glacier: *Looks down* ...Like it always has, I suppose. What about you?
Alexander: *Gives Julia an apologetic glance*
Aurora: What? It's always fun to make up with someone. *Smiles innocently*
Alexander: *Laughs a little and shakes his head* Right. So, um, where is Fred anyway?
Lua: N-nothing... *Wipes her eyes*
Celeste: After being expelled and turned into a cat? Uh... I'm engaged... And pregnant?
Julia: *Sighs* Sleeping, probably.
Hamlet: Something must be wrong...
Glacier: *His eyes widen a little* Pregnant? Well... congratulations.
Alexander: Oh. *Frowns* (She really doesn't seem very happy...) Hey, why don't you hang out with us for a while, then?
Aurora: *Raises an eyebrow at him, but sighs and smiles at Julia* Sounds good to me.
Lua: I can't tell you...
Celeste: Thank you.... *She doesn't seem very enthusiastic*
Julia: I don't want to be a bother...
Hamlet: *His heart sinks a little* Why not?
Glacier: *Frowns* Are you happy about the baby?
Alexander: You're not a bother! Do you like video games? I was just about to bug Aurora to play some with me. It'd be even more fun with three players...
Lua: I don't want to mess up the future...
Celeste: I'm not unhappy.
Julia: I don't really know how to play any video games... *Frowns*
Hamlet: ...Does something bad happen?
Glacier: Are you indifferent?
Alexander: It's not too late to learn, right? Come on, have some fun! *Takes her hand oh he's tugging her along to his room*
Aurora: *Quickly grabs his other hand and follows*
Lua: I can't tell you, dad...
Celeste: Well... *Nods* I guess you can say that. But Macha is really excited.
Julia: *Giggles and follows*
Hamlet: *Sighs and looks down* Right...
Glacier: That's... good, then. *Nods and tries to smile*
Alexander: *Lets go of their hands once they're in the room and grabs three handheld game systems how many does he even have*
Aurora: Let me guess. Pokemon?
Alexander: Of course. *Turns the games on and hands one to Julia and one to Aurora*
*Why does Julia's game have a team of pokemon lead by a Zoroark named Onyx-- is she playing Amelia's copy *
Aurora: *Preparing all of her glamorous pokemon for battle*
Alexander: Julia, do you want to battle me or Aurora first? *Grins*
Lua: Take care of mom for me while i can't...
Jaci: *Swallows*
Celeste: *Looks down at her stomach, seeming deep in thought*
Julia: I... Uh... You?
Hamlet: ...You know I'll always take care of her...
Glacier: *Follows her gaze to her stomach* ...Do you want a boy or a girl? *Trying so hard to find conversation*
Alexander: Okay. *Sets that up and shows her the controls* ...So you just tap whatever attack you want your pokemon to use against mine. Got it?
Lua: *Smiles sadly at him*
Celeste: I want a lizard.
Julia: I guess i did...
Hamlet: (What is she hiding? What's the future like?) *Looks down*
Glacier: Lizards are unsanitary. They carry salmonella.
Alexander: Great! You get the first turn. *Prepares for the intense battle with this big scary looking pokemon*
Aurora: He's going to pulverize you.
Lua: Are you hungry?
Celeste: Good.
Julia: *Taps something random*
Hamlet: Not really. Are you?
Glacier: How is that good...?
*The attack is super effective*
Aurora: Beginner's luck...
Alexander: *Taps something that purposely does little damage and cringes* Uh oh. Bad move...
Aurora: You should have known that wouldn't work against a Pokemon of that type.
Alexander: Since when did you become a Pokemon expert?
Aurora: Since I got determined to beat you at it. *Grins*
Lua: A little...
Celeste: *Grins at him*
Julia: *Grins* (Am i really that good?)
Hamlet: Want some hamster food?
Glacier: *Looks a little scared *
Alexander: *Grins and keeps playing against her, losing badly... it's so embarrassing*
Aurora: *Watching in disbelief*
Lua: *Nods* Please!
Celeste: Do you have any plans... For the future..?
Julia: *Smiling* Am i really that good?
Hamlet: Okay, let's go. *Gets out of bed and heads for his habitat, where the hamster food is*
Glacier: Me? I... *Pauses* I haven't thought about it since I ran away.
Alexander: Wow, you're amazing. You beat me. *Grins*
Aurora: How!?
Lua: *Follows*
Celeste: *Frowns*
Julia: How? *Beaming*
Hamlet: *Turns into hamster form and gets in, then heads for the food bowl* (...It's empty!)
Glacier: What about you? Any future plans...?
Alexander: You're a natural! Great job, Julia.
Aurora: *In disbelief*
Lua: *Does the same*
Celeste: Well... I'm going to marry Macha... And we'll have a baby... *She frowns a little*
Julia: *Aww look at her smile*
Hamlet: I can't believe it. Onyx and Amelia forgot to feed me! *Boy you can get your own food*
Glacier: *Frowns when she frowns* Well... I suppose that's nice?
Alexander: So, what did you think? Was it fun?
Lua: *Frowns* Can't you just get it by yourself?
Celeste: (It's not really what i wanted to do with my life... I do love Macha, but...)
Julia: *Beaming* It was!
Hamlet: I mean, I guess so, but just because they know I'm a human too now doesn't mean they shouldn't keep spoiling me.
Glacier: You don't seem very excited about it...
Alexander: *Grins* Great! Wanna play again?
Lua: *Laughs a little* I wanna be spoiled, too!
Celeste: It's just... Not the lofe i dreamed of. The wholes starting a family thing. I'm glad i met Macha and i love him... *Sighs* I was the one who proposed to him... B-but i don't know... Being married and having kids isn't really my thing...
Isabel wakes up first, surprised that she's not in the middle of a river in a makeshift raft. She supposed that Maya was too tired to get her and herself off of the roof.
@nerdfashion
*A bat flies onto the roof, near Isabel and Maya*
Maya sees the bat on the roof, and assuming it is only a creature, she snaps her fingers and is back on the roof. She gathers her things, and gives the grave of her sister one last look.
*The bat transforms into...*
Onyx: *Now in his regular form, he stares at her in shock* W-What just happened...?
Maya, angry: Why do you care?
Onyx: What do you mean by that? *Frowns*
Maya: I mean, why do YOU care that MY SISTER just FELL OFF OF A ROOF!?!
Onyx: *Cringes* I get that, but why wouldn't I care that she... *Sighs* What's your problem with me? I want to help you! You're clearly lost and now this... *Looks away* I'm so sorry about your sister. (I shouldn't have let them leave the house. This never would have happened...)
Maya: SORRY isn't enough.
Maya turns around and sits on the roof.
Maya: Because it's all my fault!
She puts her head in her hands and starts crying, crying until every last tear has left her.
Onyx: It isn't your fault... *Cautiously approaches and sits beside of Maya* You didn't mean for that to happen, okay? Don't blame yourself. *Carefully places a hand on her shoulder, feeling sympathetic*
Maya: Yes, it was my fault. I let myself open up to her... and she took me over, and made me push her off the edge. I killed my own sister, I killed my mother, and she killed my father. I have nobody left. Nobody. Now I have to stop her if I want things to go back to normal, and I can't, because...
Maya stops.
Maya: And YOU. YOU are trying to get information out of me.
She pushes his hand off her shoulder, grabs the stuff she packed up, snaps her fingers and is on the ground. She starts running away from the mansion before you could say "Wait!".
Onyx: *Teleports in front of her* Wait! Maya, was it? *Stoops down to her height* I'm not trying to get information out of you. I don't know what's going on with you... but I know you must be really upset and scared. I don't know if there's anything I can do... but I want to help you. And I'm sure my family would, too. There are a lot of people that came here with no one or nowhere else to go. *Smiles a little* But as long as they're here, they aren't alone. They have someone. You don't have to be alone...
Maya: Fine. But if I decide to leave in the next two weeks you won't stop me. Agreed?
Onyx: Only if you don't decide that the same way you've been deciding it this past day. *Raises an eyebrow* Like randomly accusing me of strange things and running off to sleep on my roof...
Maya: I didn't mean to end up on the roof. I was so tired I just snapped my fingers, then couldn't get us off until this morning. And I'm sorry for accusing you of strange things...
Onyx: *Smiles warmly* Hey, it's alright. Why don't you come inside? I can get you something to eat if you're hungry...
*Someone walks out of the front door and approaches them*
Amelia: Onyx? I've been looking everywhere for you.
Onyx: *Turns to her* Hey. Sorry... I've been a little busy with-
Amelia: *Looks down at Maya* The new guest, I assume? *Smiles* Hello there. What's your name?
Maya: I'm Maya...
Amelia: I'm Amelia. *Smiles* It's nice to meet you.
Onyx: We were just about to come inside. *Smiles too*
Maya: Nice to meet you to...
She walks away from them and decides to explore the mansion, and looking for a place where she can be alone. While exploring, she sees the place where she and her sister entered. Her eyes begin to fill with tears and she runs away from the place, and comes across a library.
Amelia: *Frowns at Onyx* She's so young. Her parents didn't show up with her?
Onyx: *Sighs* She said she doesn't have anyone. (I won't mention her sister. It would upset Amelia to hear something like that...)
Amelia: *Sighs too* I feel bad for her. Can we keep her? *Grins playfully*
Onyx: Something tells me she wouldn't like that. Sorry, Amelia. *Laughs softly and wraps an arm around her* Come on, let's go back inside...
Maya looks around the library... she sees rows and rows of dusty books on high shelves, but there is no ladder and it feels as though the place has not been touched for years... She walks up to a shelf on her right and chooses a random book with a crimson cover. It's title says, "A History of Evil". The copyright print says it was written in the early 1840's!
*The door to the library opens and closes, and there's the sound of footsteps behind Maya*
Maya quickly puts the book back on the shelf, not caring if it's in the right place or not, and ducks behind a small table
Adiran: *Muttering* Where was that book on how to... *His voice trails off as he starts looking through some books on a shelf, they seem to be mostly related to science and technology*
Maya slinks out from under the table and tries to sneak away, but accidentally knocks over a pile of dusty books and starts coughing.
Adiran: *Startled, he turns to her direction* Hello? *Approaches and frowns when he sees her* (It's a kid...) Hey, you should really be more careful.
Maya rolls her eyes at him and runs out of the library.
Adiran: Hey, wait! Keep running inside and you'll break something! *Quickly walks after her*
Maya easily outruns Adiran and hides behind some curtains. After he passes, she quietly and carefully walks back to the library.
Adiran: *Sighs* (Where did she go?) *Stops searching and goes back to the library for the book he needed*
Maya, after realizing that Adiran will probably be going back to the library too, just walks right past it and instead finds herself in a laundry room.
*The next morning, everything seems pretty quiet around here...*
Lua: *Jumps on Jaclet bed*
Celeste: *Snuggled up to Macha*
Julia: *In some corner around the house*
Hamlet: *Sound asleep, he didn't even notice*
Macha: *Snoring loudly and clinging to Celeste*
Aurora: *Walks out of Alexander's room, in her pajamas with bed hair and no makeup wow what a rare sight* (What time even is it...?) *Yawns and is about to walk past Julia when she stops* Oh, good morning. *Wow she looks like she didn't sleep at all*
Lua: Mom! Dad! Wake up! *Jump jump*
Celeste: *Snoring just as loud*
Julia: *Smiles weakly at her* Good morning...
Hamlet: *Opens his eyes* What in the...?
Glacier: (What room is Celeste's again...?) *Walking aimlessly down the hallway*
Aurora: *Smiles* So, uh... Is there a reason you're all alone in the corner? *Trying to straighten out her hair a little* (My poor hair. What a mess.)
Jaci: *Sleeping like a rock*
Lua: *Jumps on Hamlet ouch*
Celeste: *Cling cling*
Julia: I couldn't sleep...
Hamlet: *Yelps and sits up* Lua...!

Alexander: *Lets go of their hands once they're in the room and grabs three handheld game systems how many does he even have*
Aurora: Let me guess. Pokemon?
Alexander: Of course. *Turns the games on and hands one to Julia and one to Aurora*
*Why does Julia's game have a team of pokemon lead by a Zoroark named Onyx-- is she playing Amelia's copy *
Aurora: *Preparing all of her glamorous pokemon for battle*
Alexander: Julia, do you want to battle me or Aurora first? *Grins*
Lua: Take care of mom for me while i can't...
Jaci: *Swallows*
Celeste: *Looks down at her stomach, seeming deep in thought*
Julia: I... Uh... You?
Hamlet: ...You know I'll always take care of her...
Glacier: *Follows her gaze to her stomach* ...Do you want a boy or a girl? *Trying so hard to find conversation*
Alexander: Okay. *Sets that up and shows her the controls* ...So you just tap whatever attack you want your pokemon to use against mine. Got it?
Lua: *Smiles sadly at him*
Celeste: I want a lizard.
Julia: I guess i did...
Hamlet: (What is she hiding? What's the future like?) *Looks down*
Glacier: Lizards are unsanitary. They carry salmonella.
Alexander: Great! You get the first turn. *Prepares for the intense battle with this big scary looking pokemon*
Aurora: He's going to pulverize you.
Lua: Are you hungry?
Celeste: Good.
Julia: *Taps something random*
Hamlet: Not really. Are you?
Glacier: How is that good...?
*The attack is super effective*
Aurora: Beginner's luck...
Alexander: *Taps something that purposely does little damage and cringes* Uh oh. Bad move...
Aurora: You should have known that wouldn't work against a Pokemon of that type.
Alexander: Since when did you become a Pokemon expert?
Aurora: Since I got determined to beat you at it. *Grins*
Lua: A little...
Celeste: *Grins at him*
Julia: *Grins* (Am i really that good?)
Hamlet: Want some hamster food?
Glacier: *Looks a little scared *
Alexander: *Grins and keeps playing against her, losing badly... it's so embarrassing*
Aurora: *Watching in disbelief*
Lua: *Nods* Please!
Celeste: Do you have any plans... For the future..?
Julia: *Smiling* Am i really that good?
Hamlet: Okay, let's go. *Gets out of bed and heads for his habitat, where the hamster food is*
Glacier: Me? I... *Pauses* I haven't thought about it since I ran away.
Alexander: Wow, you're amazing. You beat me. *Grins*
Aurora: How!?
Lua: *Follows*
Celeste: *Frowns*
Julia: How? *Beaming*
Hamlet: *Turns into hamster form and gets in, then heads for the food bowl* (...It's empty!)
Glacier: What about you? Any future plans...?
Alexander: You're a natural! Great job, Julia.
Aurora: *In disbelief*
Lua: *Does the same*
Celeste: Well... I'm going to marry Macha... And we'll have a baby... *She frowns a little*
Julia: *Aww look at her smile*
Hamlet: I can't believe it. Onyx and Amelia forgot to feed me! *Boy you can get your own food*
Glacier: *Frowns when she frowns* Well... I suppose that's nice?
Alexander: So, what did you think? Was it fun?
Lua: *Frowns* Can't you just get it by yourself?
Celeste: (It's not really what i wanted to do with my life... I do love Macha, but...)
Julia: *Beaming* It was!
Hamlet: I mean, I guess so, but just because they know I'm a human too now doesn't mean they shouldn't keep spoiling me.
Glacier: You don't seem very excited about it...
Alexander: *Grins* Great! Wanna play again?
Lua: *Laughs a little* I wanna be spoiled, too!
Celeste: It's just... Not the lofe i dreamed of. The wholes starting a family thing. I'm glad i met Macha and i love him... *Sighs* I was the one who proposed to him... B-but i don't know... Being married and having kids isn't really my thing...
Julia: Yes!
Hamlet: *Sighs and gets out, then transforms into a human and grabs the bag of hamster food* I can't believe this....*Pouts and fills up the bowl*
Glacier: *Nods* Well... if it isn't what you want, then perhaps you shouldn't do it. Getting married to him, I mean. And... as for the child... *Frowns* I don't know.
Alexander: Okay! *Grins and sets up another battle* Good luck. I'm definitely not going easy on you!

Isabel wakes up first, surprised that she's not in the middle of a river in a makeshift raft. She supposed that Maya was too tired to get her and herself off of the roof.
@nerdfashion
*A bat flies onto the roof, near Isabel and Maya*
Maya sees the bat on the roof, and assuming it is only a creature, she snaps her fingers and is back on the roof. She gathers her things, and gives the grave of her sister one last look.
*The bat transforms into...*
Onyx: *Now in his regular form, he stares at her in shock* W-What just happened...?
Maya, angry: Why do you care?
Onyx: What do you mean by that? *Frowns*
Maya: I mean, why do YOU care that MY SISTER just FELL OFF OF A ROOF!?!
Onyx: *Cringes* I get that, but why wouldn't I care that she... *Sighs* What's your problem with me? I want to help you! You're clearly lost and now this... *Looks away* I'm so sorry about your sister. (I shouldn't have let them leave the house. This never would have happened...)
Maya: SORRY isn't enough.
Maya turns around and sits on the roof.
Maya: Because it's all my fault!
She puts her head in her hands and starts crying, crying until every last tear has left her.
Onyx: It isn't your fault... *Cautiously approaches and sits beside of Maya* You didn't mean for that to happen, okay? Don't blame yourself. *Carefully places a hand on her shoulder, feeling sympathetic*
Maya: Yes, it was my fault. I let myself open up to her... and she took me over, and made me push her off the edge. I killed my own sister, I killed my mother, and she killed my father. I have nobody left. Nobody. Now I have to stop her if I want things to go back to normal, and I can't, because...
Maya stops.
Maya: And YOU. YOU are trying to get information out of me.
She pushes his hand off her shoulder, grabs the stuff she packed up, snaps her fingers and is on the ground. She starts running away from the mansion before you could say "Wait!".
Onyx: *Teleports in front of her* Wait! Maya, was it? *Stoops down to her height* I'm not trying to get information out of you. I don't know what's going on with you... but I know you must be really upset and scared. I don't know if there's anything I can do... but I want to help you. And I'm sure my family would, too. There are a lot of people that came here with no one or nowhere else to go. *Smiles a little* But as long as they're here, they aren't alone. They have someone. You don't have to be alone...
Maya: Fine. But if I decide to leave in the next two weeks you won't stop me. Agreed?
Onyx: Only if you don't decide that the same way you've been deciding it this past day. *Raises an eyebrow* Like randomly accusing me of strange things and running off to sleep on my roof...
Maya: I didn't mean to end up on the roof. I was so tired I just snapped my fingers, then couldn't get us off until this morning. And I'm sorry for accusing you of strange things...
Onyx: *Smiles warmly* Hey, it's alright. Why don't you come inside? I can get you something to eat if you're hungry...
*Someone walks out of the front door and approaches them*
Amelia: Onyx? I've been looking everywhere for you.
Onyx: *Turns to her* Hey. Sorry... I've been a little busy with-
Amelia: *Looks down at Maya* The new guest, I assume? *Smiles* Hello there. What's your name?
Maya: I'm Maya...
Amelia: I'm Amelia. *Smiles* It's nice to meet you.
Onyx: We were just about to come inside. *Smiles too*
Maya: Nice to meet you to...
She walks away from them and decides to explore the mansion, and looking for a place where she can be alone. While exploring, she sees the place where she and her sister entered. Her eyes begin to fill with tears and she runs away from the place, and comes across a library.
Amelia: *Frowns at Onyx* She's so young. Her parents didn't show up with her?
Onyx: *Sighs* She said she doesn't have anyone. (I won't mention her sister. It would upset Amelia to hear something like that...)
Amelia: *Sighs too* I feel bad for her. Can we keep her? *Grins playfully*
Onyx: Something tells me she wouldn't like that. Sorry, Amelia. *Laughs softly and wraps an arm around her* Come on, let's go back inside...
Maya looks around the library... she sees rows and rows of dusty books on high shelves, but there is no ladder and it feels as though the place has not been touched for years... She walks up to a shelf on her right and chooses a random book with a crimson cover. It's title says, "A History of Evil". The copyright print says it was written in the early 1840's!
*The door to the library opens and closes, and there's the sound of footsteps behind Maya*
Maya quickly puts the book back on the shelf, not caring if it's in the right place or not, and ducks behind a small table
Adiran: *Muttering* Where was that book on how to... *His voice trails off as he starts looking through some books on a shelf, they seem to be mostly related to science and technology*
Maya slinks out from under the table and tries to sneak away, but accidentally knocks over a pile of dusty books and starts coughing.
Adiran: *Startled, he turns to her direction* Hello? *Approaches and frowns when he sees her* (It's a kid...) Hey, you should really be more careful.
Maya rolls her eyes at him and runs out of the library.
Adiran: Hey, wait! Keep running inside and you'll break something! *Quickly walks after her*
Maya easily outruns Adiran and hides behind some curtains. After he passes, she quietly and carefully walks back to the library.
Adiran: *Sighs* (Where did she go?) *Stops searching and goes back to the library for the book he needed*
Maya, after realizing that Adiran will probably be going back to the library too, just walks right past it and instead finds herself in a laundry room.
Adiran: *Gets the book he needed and sits down to flip through it* (Kids...) *Shakes his head*

*The next morning, everything seems pretty quiet around here...*
Lua: *Jumps on Jaclet bed*
Celeste: *Snuggled up to Macha*
Julia: *In some corner around the house*
Hamlet: *Sound asleep, he didn't even notice*
Macha: *Snoring loudly and clinging to Celeste*
Aurora: *Walks out of Alexander's room, in her pajamas with bed hair and no makeup wow what a rare sight* (What time even is it...?) *Yawns and is about to walk past Julia when she stops* Oh, good morning. *Wow she looks like she didn't sleep at all*
Lua: Mom! Dad! Wake up! *Jump jump*
Celeste: *Snoring just as loud*
Julia: *Smiles weakly at her* Good morning...
Hamlet: *Opens his eyes* What in the...?
Glacier: (What room is Celeste's again...?) *Walking aimlessly down the hallway*
Aurora: *Smiles* So, uh... Is there a reason you're all alone in the corner? *Trying to straighten out her hair a little* (My poor hair. What a mess.)
Jaci: *Sleeping like a rock*
Lua: *Jumps on Hamlet ouch*
Celeste: *Cling cling*
Julia: I couldn't sleep...
Hamlet: *Yelps and sits up* Lua...!
Glacier: *Walks up to Celestcha's door and knocks*
Aurora: Oh. *Frowns* I didn't get any sleep, either. *Laughs a little, there's a slight smirk on her face* (I thought I heard Julia and Fred talking when Alexander said he was snooping last night... Was he eavesdropping on them?)
Lua: *Clings to him* Good morning, dad!
Celeste: Mhm...? *Sits up* (Did someone knock?) *Opens the door*
Julia: I see... *Sees the smirk and frowns a little*
Hamlet: *Laughs a little* Good morning...
Glacier: *At the door* Good morning... *Frowns* Did I wake you? I'm sorry.
Aurora: Just so you know, I'm pretty sure Alexander was snooping on your conversation with Fred last night. Apparently it was pretty juicy. Wanna share the details? I love gossip.
Lua: Is mom still asleep? *Shakes her head*
Celeste: Morning.
Julia: Hm? *Frowns more*
Hamlet: I guess so... *Looks over at Jaci*
Glacier: How are you? *Smiles*
Aurora: I'm asking what's up with you and Fred. *Grins*
Lua: Let's wake her up?
Celeste: gnzgbhnzhsnhnhng....
Julia: W-we're fine...
Hamlet: Right... *Pounces on Jaci*
Glacier: ...Celeste?
Aurora: You sure about that?
Jaci:*Yelps and blushes* H-Hamlet...?
Celeste: Mhmmm....?
Julia: *Nods* Y-yeah... I am...
Hamlet: *Grinning* Good morning, Jaci...
Glacier: ...I suppose I should leave you alone. You're clearly still tired.
Aurora: Okay. *Doesn't seem convinced*
Alexander: *Comes out of his room is it just me or is he sneaking up behind Aurora is Julia gonna snitch or not*
Jaci: *Laughs a little and pulls him into a hug* Good morning...
Lua: *Joins the hug* Morning, mom!
Celeste: Nah... Tell me what you want.
Julia: *Her eyes widen*
Hamlet: *Returns the hug to both of them* So how are you this morning?
Glacier: I... *Pauses* I don't know. I just felt like talking...
Aurora: What? *Starts to turn around*
Alexander: *Pounces and wraps his arms around her waist from behind her, grinning*
Aurora: *Squeals in surprise and then laughs* Alexander!
Alexander: Did I scare you? *Rests his chin on her shoulder*
Aurora: *Blushes* Of course not! Right, Julia? *Aren't they so cute*
Lua: I love you so much...
Celeste *Gets out of the room and closes the door behind her* i'm down. *Rubs her eye*
Julia: *Smiles weakly at them*
Hamlet: I love you too, Lua.
Glacier: So... *Goes awkwardly silent, he wants to be social but he never really got the hang of it...*
Alexander: *Kisses her cheek and lets go of her, then looks at Julia* Good morning, Julia. How did things go with Fred?
Aurora: (I knew there was Fred drama.)
Jaci: We both love you very much. *Running a hand through her hair*
Lua: *...Is she crying?*
Celeste: Is there anything you want to talk about or...?
Julia: Oh... They went... Well. We... *Blushes* We... Made up...
Hamlet: ...Lua...? *Frowns*
Glacier: No, I just... *Looks down I think he's just been so lonely*
Aurora: (That's some awkwardness and blushing...) *Grins at Julia* Oh, you *made up?* That's nice. *Winks*
Alexander: *Frowns* That's... (Disgusting and somehow makes me angry.) ...Great.
Lua: *Clings to Jaci*
Jaci: *Frowns over at Hamlet* Hey... What's wrong?
Celeste: Oh... Well...
Julia: *Blushes more*
Hamlet: *Hugs both of them closer to himself, frowning more*
Glacier: Sorry... I'm just... excited to have someone to talk to again. Since that happened, I haven't really had anyone around.
Aurora: I bet that was fun, huh?
Alexander: *Elbows Aurora* I bet it wasn't. So stop asking her.

Jaci: I love you too... Please, don't cry!
Celeste: All good. How has life been treating you?
Julia: *Laughs awkwardly* (It was nothing worth mentioning...)
Hamlet: Lua, what's wrong? *Places a hand on her back*
Glacier: *Looks down* ...Like it always has, I suppose. What about you?
Alexander: *Gives Julia an apologetic glance*
Aurora: What? It's always fun to make up with someone. *Smiles innocently*
Alexander: *Laughs a little and shakes his head* Right. So, um, where is Fred anyway?
Lua: N-nothing... *Wipes her eyes*
Celeste: After being expelled and turned into a cat? Uh... I'm engaged... And pregnant?
Julia: *Sighs* Sleeping, probably.
Hamlet: Something must be wrong...
Glacier: *His eyes widen a little* Pregnant? Well... congratulations.
Alexander: Oh. *Frowns* (She really doesn't seem very happy...) Hey, why don't you hang out with us for a while, then?
Aurora: *Raises an eyebrow at him, but sighs and smiles at Julia* Sounds good to me.
Lua: I can't tell you...
Celeste: Thank you.... *She doesn't seem very enthusiastic*
Julia: I don't want to be a bother...
Hamlet: *His heart sinks a little* Why not?
Glacier: *Frowns* Are you happy about the baby?
Alexander: You're not a bother! Do you like video games? I was just about to bug Aurora to play some with me. It'd be even more fun with three players...
Lua: I don't want to mess up the future...
Celeste: I'm not unhappy.
Julia: I don't really know how to play any video games... *Frowns*
Hamlet: ...Does something bad happen?
Glacier: Are you indifferent?
Alexander: It's not too late to learn, right? Come on, have some fun! *Takes her hand oh he's tugging her along to his room*
Aurora: *Quickly grabs his other hand and follows*
Lua: I can't tell you, dad...
Celeste: Well... *Nods* I guess you can say that. But Macha is really excited.
Julia: *Giggles and follows*
Hamlet: *Sighs and looks down* Right...
Glacier: That's... good, then. *Nods and tries to smile*
Alexander: *Lets go of their hands once they're in the room and grabs three handheld game systems how many does he even have*
Aurora: Let me guess. Pokemon?
Alexander: Of course. *Turns the games on and hands one to Julia and one to Aurora*
*Why does Julia's game have a team of pokemon lead by a Zoroark named Onyx-- is she playing Amelia's copy *
Aurora: *Preparing all of her glamorous pokemon for battle*

Hamlet: ...You know I'll always take care of her...
Glacier: *Follows her gaze to her stomach* ...Do you want a boy or a girl? *Trying so hard to find conversation*
Alexander: Okay. *Sets that up and shows her the controls* ...So you just tap whatever attack you want your pokemon to use against mine. Got it?
Lua: *Smiles sadly at him*

Glacier: Me? I... *Pauses* I haven't thought about it since I ran away.
Alexander: Wow, you're amazing. You beat me. *Grins*
Aurora: How!?
Lua: *Follows*
Celeste: *Frowns*
Julia: How? *Beaming*

There are a lot of people that came here with no one or nowhere else to go. *Smiles a little* But as long as they're here, they aren't alone. They have someone. You don't have to be alone...
Maya: Fine. But if I decide to leave in the next two weeks you won't stop me. Agreed?
Onyx: Only if you don't decide that the same way you've been deciding it this past day. *Raises an eyebrow* Like randomly accusing me of strange things and running off to sleep on my roof...
Maya: I didn't mean to end up on the roof. I was so tired I just snapped my fingers, then couldn't get us off until this morning. And I'm sorry for accusing you of strange things...
Onyx: *Smiles warmly* Hey, it's alright. Why don't you come inside? I can get you something to eat if you're hungry...
*Someone walks out of the front door and approaches them*
Amelia: Onyx? I've been looking everywhere for you.
Onyx: *Turns to her* Hey. Sorry... I've been a little busy with-
Amelia: *Looks down at Maya* The new guest, I assume? *Smiles* Hello there. What's your name?
Maya: I'm Maya...
Amelia: I'm Amelia. *Smiles* It's nice to meet you.
Onyx: We were just about to come inside. *Smiles too*
Maya: Nice to meet you to...
She walks away from them and decides to explore the mansion, and looking for a place where she can be alone. While exploring, she sees the place where she and her sister entered. Her eyes begin to fill with tears and she runs away from the place, and comes across a library.
Amelia: *Frowns at Onyx* She's so young. Her parents didn't show up with her?
Onyx: *Sighs* She said she doesn't have anyone. (I won't mention her sister. It would upset Amelia to hear something like that...)
Amelia: *Sighs too* I feel bad for her. Can we keep her? *Grins playfully*
Onyx: Something tells me she wouldn't like that. Sorry, Amelia. *Laughs softly and wraps an arm around her* Come on, let's go back inside...
Maya looks around the library... she sees rows and rows of dusty books on high shelves, but there is no ladder and it feels as though the place has not been touched for years... She walks up to a shelf on her right and chooses a random book with a crimson cover. It's title says, "A History of Evil". The copyright print says it was written in the early 1840's!
*The door to the library opens and closes, and there's the sound of footsteps behind Maya*
Maya quickly puts the book back on the shelf, not caring if it's in the right place or not, and ducks behind a small table
Adiran: *Muttering* Where was that book on how to... *His voice trails off as he starts looking through some books on a shelf, they seem to be mostly related to science and technology*
Maya slinks out from under the table and tries to sneak away, but accidentally knocks over a pile of dusty books and starts coughing.
Adiran: *Startled, he turns to her direction* Hello? *Approaches and frowns when he sees her* (It's a kid...) Hey, you should really be more careful.
Maya rolls her eyes at him and runs out of the library.
Adiran: Hey, wait! Keep running inside and you'll break something! *Quickly walks after her*
Maya easily outruns Adiran and hides behind some curtains. After he passes, she quietly and carefully walks back to the library.
Adiran: *Sighs* (Where did she go?) *Stops searching and goes back to the library for the book he needed*
Maya, after realizing that Adiran will probably be going back to the library too, just walks right past it and instead finds herself in a laundry room.
Adiran: *Gets the book he needed and sits down to flip through it* (Kids...) *Shakes his head*
Maya looks around the room a little bit, and finds and overly large laundry shoot. It's big enough to fit an average-sized 14-year-old girl. Maya slides down it, and lands on a soft bit of floor. She stands up, and looks around. Inside the bedroom, she sees ancient ruins. Immediately, she deciphers them, and finds these words:
Twins shall enter the woods.
They shall climb to the roof.
One shall lose their words.
"Isabel...." Maya thinks.
The other shall find out what's aloof.
If they make it to the House in the Clearing, I shall be freed.
And let loose the villain's greed.
Maya stares at the ruins. This is about her. Her and Isabel. But why hasn't the speaker been freed? Then Maya realizes. Isabel was never allowed in here as a guest. They didn't all make it.
*The next morning, everything seems pretty quiet around here...*
Lua: *Jumps on Jaclet bed*
Celeste: *Snuggled up to Macha*
Julia: *In some corner around the house*
Hamlet: *Sound asleep, he didn't even notice*
Macha: *Snoring loudly and clinging to Celeste*
Aurora: *Walks out of Alexander's room, in her pajamas with bed hair and no makeup wow what a rare sight* (What time even is it...?) *Yawns and is about to walk past Julia when she stops* Oh, good morning. *Wow she looks like she didn't sleep at all*
Lua: Mom! Dad! Wake up! *Jump jump*
Celeste: *Snoring just as loud*
Julia: *Smiles weakly at her* Good morning...
Hamlet: *Opens his eyes* What in the...?
Glacier: (What room is Celeste's again...?) *Walking aimlessly down the hallway*
Aurora: *Smiles* So, uh... Is there a reason you're all alone in the corner? *Trying to straighten out her hair a little* (My poor hair. What a mess.)
Jaci: *Sleeping like a rock*
Lua: *Jumps on Hamlet ouch*
Celeste: *Cling cling*
Julia: I couldn't sleep...
Hamlet: *Yelps and sits up* Lua...!
Glacier: *Walks up to Celestcha's door and knocks*
Aurora: Oh. *Frowns* I didn't get any sleep, either. *Laughs a little, there's a slight smirk on her face* (I thought I heard Julia and Fred talking when Alexander said he was snooping last night... Was he eavesdropping on them?)
Lua: *Clings to him* Good morning, dad!
Celeste: Mhm...? *Sits up* (Did someone knock?) *Opens the door*
Julia: I see... *Sees the smirk and frowns a little*
Hamlet: *Laughs a little* Good morning...
Glacier: *At the door* Good morning... *Frowns* Did I wake you? I'm sorry.
Aurora: Just so you know, I'm pretty sure Alexander was snooping on your conversation with Fred last night. Apparently it was pretty juicy. Wanna share the details? I love gossip.
Lua: Is mom still asleep? *Shakes her head*
Celeste: Morning.
Julia: Hm? *Frowns more*
Hamlet: I guess so... *Looks over at Jaci*
Glacier: How are you? *Smiles*
Aurora: I'm asking what's up with you and Fred. *Grins*
Lua: Let's wake her up?
Celeste: gnzgbhnzhsnhnhng....
Julia: W-we're fine...
Hamlet: Right... *Pounces on Jaci*
Glacier: ...Celeste?
Aurora: You sure about that?
Jaci:*Yelps and blushes* H-Hamlet...?
Celeste: Mhmmm....?
Julia: *Nods* Y-yeah... I am...
Hamlet: *Grinning* Good morning, Jaci...
Glacier: ...I suppose I should leave you alone. You're clearly still tired.
Aurora: Okay. *Doesn't seem convinced*
Alexander: *Comes out of his room is it just me or is he sneaking up behind Aurora is Julia gonna snitch or not*
Jaci: *Laughs a little and pulls him into a hug* Good morning...
Lua: *Joins the hug* Morning, mom!
Celeste: Nah... Tell me what you want.
Julia: *Her eyes widen*
Hamlet: *Returns the hug to both of them* So how are you this morning?
Glacier: I... *Pauses* I don't know. I just felt like talking...
Aurora: What? *Starts to turn around*
Alexander: *Pounces and wraps his arms around her waist from behind her, grinning*
Aurora: *Squeals in surprise and then laughs* Alexander!
Alexander: Did I scare you? *Rests his chin on her shoulder*
Aurora: *Blushes* Of course not! Right, Julia? *Aren't they so cute*
Lua: I love you so much...
Celeste *Gets out of the room and closes the door behind her* i'm down. *Rubs her eye*
Julia: *Smiles weakly at them*
Hamlet: I love you too, Lua.
Glacier: So... *Goes awkwardly silent, he wants to be social but he never really got the hang of it...*
Alexander: *Kisses her cheek and lets go of her, then looks at Julia* Good morning, Julia. How did things go with Fred?
Aurora: (I knew there was Fred drama.)
Jaci: We both love you very much. *Running a hand through her hair*
Lua: *...Is she crying?*
Celeste: Is there anything you want to talk about or...?
Julia: Oh... They went... Well. We... *Blushes* We... Made up...
Hamlet: ...Lua...? *Frowns*
Glacier: No, I just... *Looks down I think he's just been so lonely*
Aurora: (That's some awkwardness and blushing...) *Grins at Julia* Oh, you *made up?* That's nice. *Winks*
Alexander: *Frowns* That's... (Disgusting and somehow makes me angry.) ...Great.
Lua: *Clings to Jaci*
Jaci: *Frowns over at Hamlet* Hey... What's wrong?
Celeste: Oh... Well...
Julia: *Blushes more*
Hamlet: *Hugs both of them closer to himself, frowning more*
Glacier: Sorry... I'm just... excited to have someone to talk to again. Since that happened, I haven't really had anyone around.
Aurora: I bet that was fun, huh?
Alexander: *Elbows Aurora* I bet it wasn't. So stop asking her.
*The next morning, everything seems pretty quiet around here...*
Lua: *Jumps on Jaclet bed*
Celeste: *Snuggled up to Macha*

Lua: *Starts filling Jaci with kisses* I love you, mom...
Jaci: I love you too... Please, don't cry!
Celeste: All good. How has life been treating you?
Julia: *Laughs awkwardly* (It was nothing worth mentioning...)
Hamlet: Lua, what's wrong? *Places a hand on her back*
Glacier: *Looks down* ...Like it always has, I suppose. What about you?
Alexander: *Gives Julia an apologetic glance*
Aurora: What? It's always fun to make up with someone. *Smiles innocently*
Alexander: *Laughs a little and shakes his head* Right. So, um, where is Fred anyway?
Lua: N-nothing... *Wipes her eyes*
Celeste: After being expelled and turned into a cat? Uh... I'm engaged... And pregnant?
Julia: *Sighs* Sleeping, probably.
Hamlet: Something must be wrong...
Glacier: *His eyes widen a little* Pregnant? Well... congratulations.
Alexander: Oh. *Frowns* (She really doesn't seem very happy...) Hey, why don't you hang out with us for a while, then?
Aurora: *Raises an eyebrow at him, but sighs and smiles at Julia* Sounds good to me.
Lua: I can't tell you...
Celeste: Thank you.... *She doesn't seem very enthusiastic*
Julia: I don't want to be a bother...
Hamlet: *His heart sinks a little* Why not?
Glacier: *Frowns* Are you happy about the baby?
Alexander: You're not a bother! Do you like video games? I was just about to bug Aurora to play some with me. It'd be even more fun with three players...
Lua: I don't want to mess up the future...
Celeste: I'm not unhappy.
Julia: I don't really know how to play any video games... *Frowns*
Hamlet: ...Does something bad happen?
Glacier: Are you indifferent?
Alexander: It's not too late to learn, right? Come on, have some fun! *Takes her hand oh he's tugging her along to his room*
Aurora: *Quickly grabs his other hand and follows*
Lua: I can't tell you, dad...
Celeste: Well... *Nods* I guess you can say that. But Macha is really excited.
Julia: *Giggles and follows*
Hamlet: *Sighs and looks down* Right...
Glacier: That's... good, then. *Nods and tries to smile*
Alexander: *Lets go of their hands once they're in the room and grabs three handheld game systems how many does he even have*
Aurora: Let me guess. Pokemon?
Alexander: Of course. *Turns the games on and hands one to Julia and one to Aurora*
*Why does Julia's game have a team of pokemon lead by a Zoroark named Onyx-- is she playing Amelia's copy *
Aurora: *Preparing all of her glamorous pokemon for battle*
Alexander: Julia, do you want to battle me or Aurora first? *Grins*
Lua: Take care of mom for me while i can't...
Jaci: *Swallows*
Celeste: *Looks down at her stomach, seeming deep in thought*
Julia: I... Uh... You?
Hamlet: ...You know I'll always take care of her...
Glacier: *Follows her gaze to her stomach* ...Do you want a boy or a girl? *Trying so hard to find conversation*
Alexander: Okay. *Sets that up and shows her the controls* ...So you just tap whatever attack you want your pokemon to use against mine. Got it?
Lua: *Smiles sadly at him*
Celeste: I want a lizard.
Julia: I guess i did...
Hamlet: (What is she hiding? What's the future like?) *Looks down*
Glacier: Lizards are unsanitary. They carry salmonella.
Alexander: Great! You get the first turn. *Prepares for the intense battle with this big scary looking pokemon*
Aurora: He's going to pulverize you.
Lua: Are you hungry?
Celeste: Good.
Julia: *Taps something random*
Hamlet: Not really. Are you?
Glacier: How is that good...?
*The attack is super effective*
Aurora: Beginner's luck...
Alexander: *Taps something that purposely does little damage and cringes* Uh oh. Bad move...
Aurora: You should have known that wouldn't work against a Pokemon of that type.
Alexander: Since when did you become a Pokemon expert?
Aurora: Since I got determined to beat you at it. *Grins*
Lua: A little...
Celeste: *Grins at him*
Julia: *Grins* (Am i really that good?)
Hamlet: Want some hamster food?
Glacier: *Looks a little scared *
Alexander: *Grins and keeps playing against her, losing badly... it's so embarrassing*
Aurora: *Watching in disbelief*
Lua: *Nods* Please!
Celeste: Do you have any plans... For the future..?
Julia: *Smiling* Am i really that good?
Hamlet: Okay, let's go. *Gets out of bed and heads for his habitat, where the hamster food is*
Glacier: Me? I... *Pauses* I haven't thought about it since I ran away.
Alexander: Wow, you're amazing. You beat me. *Grins*
Aurora: How!?
Lua: *Follows*
Celeste: *Frowns*
Julia: How? *Beaming*
Hamlet: *Turns into hamster form and gets in, then heads for the food bowl* (...It's empty!)
Glacier: What about you? Any future plans...?
Alexander: You're a natural! Great job, Julia.
Aurora: *In disbelief*
Lua: *Does the same*
Celeste: Well... I'm going to marry Macha... And we'll have a baby... *She frowns a little*
Julia: *Aww look at her smile*
Hamlet: I can't believe it. Onyx and Amelia forgot to feed me! *Boy you can get your own food*
Glacier: *Frowns when she frowns* Well... I suppose that's nice?
Alexander: So, what did you think? Was it fun?
Lua: *Frowns* Can't you just get it by yourself?
Celeste: (It's not really what i wanted to do with my life... I do love Macha, but...)
Julia: *Beaming* It was!
Hamlet: I mean, I guess so, but just because they know I'm a human too now doesn't mean they shouldn't keep spoiling me.
Glacier: You don't seem very excited about it...
Alexander: *Grins* Great! Wanna play again?
Lua: *Laughs a little* I wanna be spoiled, too!
Celeste: It's just... Not the lofe i dreamed of. The wholes starting a family thing. I'm glad i met Macha and i love him... *Sighs* I was the one who proposed to him... B-but i don't know... Being married and having kids isn't really my thing...
Julia: Yes!
Hamlet: *Sighs and gets out, then transforms into a human and grabs the bag of hamster food* I can't believe this....*Pouts and fills up the bowl*
Glacier: *Nods* Well... if it isn't what you want, then perhaps you shouldn't do it. Getting married to him, I mean. And... as for the child... *Frowns* I don't know.
Alexander: Okay! *Grins and sets up another battle* Good luck. I'm definitely not going easy on you!
Lua: You could ask mom spoil you instead. *Grins*
Celeste: I-i will talk to him..
Julia: *Grins wide* Okay!
Hamlet: *Goes back into hamster form and to the food bowl* ...You're right, I could. *Aww look at the little hamster grin*
Glacier: *Nods* Just be honest with him. If he's worth your time, surely he'll understand.
Alexander: *Starts playing with a big grin*
Aurora: *Watches intensely*

Isabel wakes up first, surprised that she's not in the middle of a river in a makeshift raft. She supposed that Maya was too tired to get her and herself off of the roof.
@nerdfashion
*A bat flies onto the roof, near Isabel and Maya*
Maya sees the bat on the roof, and assuming it is only a creature, she snaps her fingers and is back on the roof. She gathers her things, and gives the grave of her sister one last look.
*The bat transforms into...*
Onyx: *Now in his regular form, he stares at her in shock* W-What just happened...?
Maya, angry: Why do you care?
Onyx: What do you mean by that? *Frowns*
Maya: I mean, why do YOU care that MY SISTER just FELL OFF OF A ROOF!?!
Onyx: *Cringes* I get that, but why wouldn't I care that she... *Sighs* What's your problem with me? I want to help you! You're clearly lost and now this... *Looks away* I'm so sorry about your sister. (I shouldn't have let them leave the house. This never would have happened...)
Maya: SORRY isn't enough.
Maya turns around and sits on the roof.
Maya: Because it's all my fault!
She puts her head in her hands and starts crying, crying until every last tear has left her.
Onyx: It isn't your fault... *Cautiously approaches and sits beside of Maya* You didn't mean for that to happen, okay? Don't blame yourself. *Carefully places a hand on her shoulder, feeling sympathetic*
Maya: Yes, it was my fault. I let myself open up to her... and she took me over, and made me push her off the edge. I killed my own sister, I killed my mother, and she killed my father. I have nobody left. Nobody. Now I have to stop her if I want things to go back to normal, and I can't, because...
Maya stops.
Maya: And YOU. YOU are trying to get information out of me.
She pushes his hand off her shoulder, grabs the stuff she packed up, snaps her fingers and is on the ground. She starts running away from the mansion before you could say "Wait!".
Onyx: *Teleports in front of her* Wait! Maya, was it? *Stoops down to her height* I'm not trying to get information out of you. I don't know what's going on with you... but I know you must be really upset and scared. I don't know if there's anything I can do... but I want to help you. And I'm sure my family would, too. There are a lot of people that came here with no one or nowhere else to go. *Smiles a little* But as long as they're here, they aren't alone. They have someone. You don't have to be alone...
Maya: Fine. But if I decide to leave in the next two weeks you won't stop me. Agreed?
Onyx: Only if you don't decide that the same way you've been deciding it this past day. *Raises an eyebrow* Like randomly accusing me of strange things and running off to sleep on my roof...
Maya: I didn't mean to end up on the roof. I was so tired I just snapped my fingers, then couldn't get us off until this morning. And I'm sorry for accusing you of strange things...
Onyx: *Smiles warmly* Hey, it's alright. Why don't you come inside? I can get you something to eat if you're hungry...
*Someone walks out of the front door and approaches them*
Amelia: Onyx? I've been looking everywhere for you.
Onyx: *Turns to her* Hey. Sorry... I've been a little busy with-
Amelia: *Looks down at Maya* The new guest, I assume? *Smiles* Hello there. What's your name?
Maya: I'm Maya...
Amelia: I'm Amelia. *Smiles* It's nice to meet you.
Onyx: We were just about to come inside. *Smiles too*
Maya: Nice to meet you to...
She walks away from them and decides to explore the mansion, and looking for a place where she can be alone. While exploring, she sees the place where she and her sister entered. Her eyes begin to fill with tears and she runs away from the place, and comes across a library.
Amelia: *Frowns at Onyx* She's so young. Her parents didn't show up with her?
Onyx: *Sighs* She said she doesn't have anyone. (I won't mention her sister. It would upset Amelia to hear something like that...)
Amelia: *Sighs too* I feel bad for her. Can we keep her? *Grins playfully*
Onyx: Something tells me she wouldn't like that. Sorry, Amelia. *Laughs softly and wraps an arm around her* Come on, let's go back inside...
Maya looks around the library... she sees rows and rows of dusty books on high shelves, but there is no ladder and it feels as though the place has not been touched for years... She walks up to a shelf on her right and chooses a random book with a crimson cover. It's title says, "A History of Evil". The copyright print says it was written in the early 1840's!
*The door to the library opens and closes, and there's the sound of footsteps behind Maya*
Maya quickly puts the book back on the shelf, not caring if it's in the right place or not, and ducks behind a small table
Adiran: *Muttering* Where was that book on how to... *His voice trails off as he starts looking through some books on a shelf, they seem to be mostly related to science and technology*
Maya slinks out from under the table and tries to sneak away, but accidentally knocks over a pile of dusty books and starts coughing.
Adiran: *Startled, he turns to her direction* Hello? *Approaches and frowns when he sees her* (It's a kid...) Hey, you should really be more careful.
Maya rolls her eyes at him and runs out of the library.
Adiran: Hey, wait! Keep running inside and you'll break something! *Quickly walks after her*
Maya easily outruns Adiran and hides behind some curtains. After he passes, she quietly and carefully walks back to the library.
Adiran: *Sighs* (Where did she go?) *Stops searching and goes back to the library for the book he needed*
Maya, after realizing that Adiran will probably be going back to the library too, just walks right past it and instead finds herself in a laundry room.
Adiran: *Gets the book he needed and sits down to flip through it* (Kids...) *Shakes his head*
Maya looks around the room a little bit, and finds and overly large laundry shoot. It's big enough to fit an average-sized 14-year-old girl. Maya slides down it, and lands on a soft bit of floor. She stands up, and looks around. Inside the bedroom, she sees ancient ruins. Immediately, she deciphers them, and finds these words:
Twins shall enter the woods.
They shall climb to the roof.
One shall lose their words.

And let loose the villain's greed.
Maya stares at the ruins. This is about her. Her and Isabel. But why hasn't the speaker been freed? Then Maya realizes. Isabel was never allowed in here as a guest. They didn't all make it.

Julia: I couldn't sleep...
Hamlet: *Yelps and sits up* Lua...!
Glacier: *Walks up to Celestcha's door and knocks*
Aurora: Oh. *Frowns* I didn't get any sleep, either. *Laughs a little, there's a slight smirk on her face* (I thought I heard Julia and Fred talking when Alexander said he was snooping last night... Was he eavesdropping on them?)
Lua: *Clings to him* Good morning, dad!
Celeste: Mhm...? *Sits up* (Did someone knock?) *Opens the door*
Julia: I see... *Sees the smirk and frowns a little*
Hamlet: *Laughs a little* Good morning...
Glacier: *At the door* Good morning... *Frowns* Did I wake you? I'm sorry.
Aurora: Just so you know, I'm pretty sure Alexander was snooping on your conversation with Fred last night. Apparently it was pretty juicy. Wanna share the details? I love gossip.
Lua: Is mom still asleep? *Shakes her head*
Celeste: Morning.
Julia: Hm? *Frowns more*
Hamlet: I guess so... *Looks over at Jaci*
Glacier: How are you? *Smiles*
Aurora: I'm asking what's up with you and Fred. *Grins*
Lua: Let's wake her up?
Celeste: gnzgbhnzhsnhnhng....
Julia: W-we're fine...
Hamlet: Right... *Pounces on Jaci*
Glacier: ...Celeste?
Aurora: You sure about that?
Jaci:*Yelps and blushes* H-Hamlet...?
Celeste: Mhmmm....?
Julia: *Nods* Y-yeah... I am...
Hamlet: *Grinning* Good morning, Jaci...
Glacier: ...I suppose I should leave you alone. You're clearly still tired.
Aurora: Okay. *Doesn't seem convinced*
Alexander: *Comes out of his room is it just me or is he sneaking up behind Aurora is Julia gonna snitch or not*
Jaci: *Laughs a little and pulls him into a hug* Good morning...
Lua: *Joins the hug* Morning, mom!
Celeste: Nah... Tell me what you want.
Julia: *Her eyes widen*
Hamlet: *Returns the hug to both of them* So how are you this morning?
Glacier: I... *Pauses* I don't know. I just felt like talking...
Aurora: What? *Starts to turn around*
Alexander: *Pounces and wraps his arms around her waist from behind her, grinning*
Aurora: *Squeals in surprise and then laughs* Alexander!
Alexander: Did I scare you? *Rests his chin on her shoulder*
Aurora: *Blushes* Of course not! Right, Julia? *Aren't they so cute*
Lua: I love you so much...
Celeste *Gets out of the room and closes the door behind her* i'm down. *Rubs her eye*
Julia: *Smiles weakly at them*
Hamlet: I love you too, Lua.
Glacier: So... *Goes awkwardly silent, he wants to be social but he never really got the hang of it...*
Alexander: *Kisses her cheek and lets go of her, then looks at Julia* Good morning, Julia. How did things go with Fred?
Aurora: (I knew there was Fred drama.)
Jaci: We both love you very much. *Running a hand through her hair*
Lua: *...Is she crying?*
Celeste: Is there anything you want to talk about or...?
Julia: Oh... They went... Well. We... *Blushes* We... Made up...
Hamlet: ...Lua...? *Frowns*
Glacier: No, I just... *Looks down I think he's just been so lonely*
Aurora: (That's some awkwardness and blushing...) *Grins at Julia* Oh, you *made up?* That's nice. *Winks*
Alexander: *Frowns* That's... (Disgusting and somehow makes me angry.) ...Great.
Lua: *Clings to Jaci*
Jaci: *Frowns over at Hamlet* Hey... What's wrong?
Celeste: Oh... Well...
Julia: *Blushes more*
Hamlet: *Hugs both of them closer to himself, frowning more*
Glacier: Sorry... I'm just... excited to have someone to talk to again. Since that happened, I haven't really had anyone around.
Aurora: I bet that was fun, huh?
Alexander: *Elbows Aurora* I bet it wasn't. So stop asking her.
*The next morning, everything seems pretty quiet around here...*
Lua: *Jumps on Jaclet bed*
Celeste: *Snuggled up to Macha*
Julia: *In some corner around the house*
Hamlet: *Sound asleep, he didn't even notice*
Macha: *Snoring loudly and clinging to Celeste*
Aurora: *Walks out of Alexander's room, in her pajamas with bed hair and no makeup wow what a rare sight* (What time even is it...?) *Yawns and is about to walk past Julia when she stops* Oh, good morning. *Wow she looks like she didn't sleep at all*
Lua: Mom! Dad! Wake up! *Jump jump*
Celeste: *Snoring just as loud*
Julia: *Smiles weakly at her* Good morning...
Hamlet: *Opens his eyes* What in the...?
Glacier: (What room is Celeste's again...?) *Walking aimlessly down the hallway*
Aurora: *Smiles* So, uh... Is there a reason you're all alone in the corner? *Trying to straighten out her hair a little* (My poor hair. What a mess.)
Jaci: *Sleeping like a rock*
Lua: *Jumps on Hamlet ouch*
Celeste: *Cling cling*
Julia: I couldn't sleep...
Hamlet: *Yelps and sits up* Lua...!
Glacier: *Walks up to Celestcha's door and knocks*

Aurora: Hey!
Lua: *Starts filling Jaci with kisses* I love you, mom...
Jaci: I love you too... Please, don't cry!
Celeste: All good. How has life been treating you?
Julia: *Laughs awkwardly* (It was nothing worth mentioning...)
Hamlet: Lua, what's wrong? *Places a hand on her back*
Glacier: *Looks down* ...Like it always has, I suppose. What about you?
Alexander: *Gives Julia an apologetic glance*
Aurora: What? It's always fun to make up with someone. *Smiles innocently*
Alexander: *Laughs a little and shakes his head* Right. So, um, where is Fred anyway?
Lua: N-nothing... *Wipes her eyes*
Celeste: After being expelled and turned into a cat? Uh... I'm engaged... And pregnant?
Julia: *Sighs* Sleeping, probably.
Hamlet: Something must be wrong...
Glacier: *His eyes widen a little* Pregnant? Well... congratulations.
Alexander: Oh. *Frowns* (She really doesn't seem very happy...) Hey, why don't you hang out with us for a while, then?
Aurora: *Raises an eyebrow at him, but sighs and smiles at Julia* Sounds good to me.
Lua: I can't tell you...
Celeste: Thank you.... *She doesn't seem very enthusiastic*
Julia: I don't want to be a bother...
Hamlet: *His heart sinks a little* Why not?
Glacier: *Frowns* Are you happy about the baby?
Alexander: You're not a bother! Do you like video games? I was just about to bug Aurora to play some with me. It'd be even more fun with three players...
Lua: I don't want to mess up the future...
Celeste: I'm not unhappy.
Julia: I don't really know how to play any video games... *Frowns*
Hamlet: ...Does something bad happen?
Glacier: Are you indifferent?
Alexander: It's not too late to learn, right? Come on, have some fun! *Takes her hand oh he's tugging her along to his room*
Aurora: *Quickly grabs his other hand and follows*
Lua: I can't tell you, dad...
Celeste: Well... *Nods* I guess you can say that. But Macha is really excited.
Julia: *Giggles and follows*
Hamlet: *Sighs and looks down* Right...
Glacier: That's... good, then. *Nods and tries to smile*
Alexander: *Lets go of their hands once they're in the room and grabs three handheld game systems how many does he even have*
Aurora: Let me guess. Pokemon?
Alexander: Of course. *Turns the games on and hands one to Julia and one to Aurora*
*Why does Julia's game have a team of pokemon lead by a Zoroark named Onyx-- is she playing Amelia's copy *
Aurora: *Preparing all of her glamorous pokemon for battle*
Alexander: Julia, do you want to battle me or Aurora first? *Grins*
Lua: Take care of mom for me while i can't...
Jaci: *Swallows*
Celeste: *Looks down at her stomach, seeming deep in thought*
Julia: I... Uh... You?
Hamlet: ...You know I'll always take care of her...
Glacier: *Follows her gaze to her stomach* ...Do you want a boy or a girl? *Trying so hard to find conversation*
Alexander: Okay. *Sets that up and shows her the controls* ...So you just tap whatever attack you want your pokemon to use against mine. Got it?
Lua: *Smiles sadly at him*
Celeste: I want a lizard.
Julia: I guess i did...
Hamlet: (What is she hiding? What's the future like?) *Looks down*
Glacier: Lizards are unsanitary. They carry salmonella.
Alexander: Great! You get the first turn. *Prepares for the intense battle with this big scary looking pokemon*
Aurora: He's going to pulverize you.
Lua: Are you hungry?
Celeste: Good.
Julia: *Taps something random*
Hamlet: Not really. Are you?
Glacier: How is that good...?
*The attack is super effective*
Aurora: Beginner's luck...
Alexander: *Taps something that purposely does little damage and cringes* Uh oh. Bad move...
Aurora: You should have known that wouldn't work against a Pokemon of that type.
Alexander: Since when did you become a Pokemon expert?
Aurora: Since I got determined to beat you at it. *Grins*
Lua: A little...
Celeste: *Grins at him*
Julia: *Grins* (Am i really that good?)
Hamlet: Want some hamster food?
Glacier: *Looks a little scared *
Alexander: *Grins and keeps playing against her, losing badly... it's so embarrassing*
Aurora: *Watching in disbelief*
Lua: *Nods* Please!
Celeste: Do you have any plans... For the future..?
Julia: *Smiling* Am i really that good?
Hamlet: Okay, let's go. *Gets out of bed and heads for his habitat, where the hamster food is*
Glacier: Me? I... *Pauses* I haven't thought about it since I ran away.
Alexander: Wow, you're amazing. You beat me. *Grins*
Aurora: How!?
Lua: *Follows*
Celeste: *Frowns*
Julia: How? *Beaming*
Hamlet: *Turns into hamster form and gets in, then heads for the food bowl* (...It's empty!)
Glacier: What about you? Any future plans...?
Alexander: You're a natural! Great job, Julia.
Aurora: *In disbelief*
Lua: *Does the same*
Celeste: Well... I'm going to marry Macha... And we'll have a baby... *She frowns a little*
Julia: *Aww look at her smile*
Hamlet: I can't believe it. Onyx and Amelia forgot to feed me! *Boy you can get your own food*
Glacier: *Frowns when she frowns* Well... I suppose that's nice?
Alexander: So, what did you think? Was it fun?
Lua: *Frowns* Can't you just get it by yourself?
Celeste: (It's not really what i wanted to do with my life... I do love Macha, but...)
Julia: *Beaming* It was!
Hamlet: I mean, I guess so, but just because they know I'm a human too now doesn't mean they shouldn't keep spoiling me.
Glacier: You don't seem very excited about it...
Alexander: *Grins* Great! Wanna play again?
Lua: *Laughs a little* I wanna be spoiled, too!
Celeste: It's just... Not the lofe i dreamed of. The wholes starting a family thing. I'm glad i met Macha and i love him... *Sighs* I was the one who proposed to him... B-but i don't know... Being married and having kids isn't really my thing...
Julia: Yes!
Hamlet: *Sighs and gets out, then transforms into a human and grabs the bag of hamster food* I can't believe this....*Pouts and fills up the bowl*
Glacier: *Nods* Well... if it isn't what you want, then perhaps you shouldn't do it. Getting married to him, I mean. And... as for the child... *Frowns* I don't know.
Alexander: Okay! *Grins and sets up another battle* Good luck. I'm definitely not going easy on you!
Lua: You could ask mom spoil you instead. *Grins*
Celeste: I-i will talk to him..
Julia: *Grins wide* Okay!
Hamlet: *Goes back into hamster form and to the food bowl* ...You're right, I could. *Aww look at the little hamster grin*
Glacier: *Nods* Just be honest with him. If he's worth your time, surely he'll understand.
Alexander: *Starts playing with a big grin*
Aurora: *Watches intensely*
Lua: Ask her to spoil me, too...
Celeste: I was the one who proposed to him, though...
*The next morning, everything seems pretty quiet around here...*
Lua: *Jumps on Jaclet bed*
Celeste: *Snuggled up to Macha*
Julia: *In some corner around the house*
Hamlet: *Sound asleep, he didn't even notice*
Macha: *Snoring loudly and clinging to Celeste*
Aurora: *Walks out of Alexander's room, in her pajamas with bed hair and no makeup wow what a rare sight* (What time even is it...?) *Yawns and is about to walk past Julia when she stops* Oh, good morning. *Wow she looks like she didn't sleep at all*
Lua: Mom! Dad! Wake up! *Jump jump*
Celeste: *Snoring just as loud*
Julia: *Smiles weakly at her* Good morning...
Hamlet: *Opens his eyes* What in the...?
Glacier: (What room is Celeste's again...?) *Walking aimlessly down the hallway*
Aurora: *Smiles* So, uh... Is there a reason you're all alone in the corner? *Trying to straighten out her hair a little* (My poor hair. What a mess.)
Jaci: *Sleeping like a rock*
Lua: *Jumps on Hamlet ouch*
Celeste: *Cling cling*
Julia: I couldn't sleep...
Hamlet: *Yelps and sits up* Lua...!
Glacier: *Walks up to Celestcha's door and knocks*
Aurora: Oh. *Frowns* I didn't get any sleep, either. *Laughs a little, there's a slight smirk on her face* (I thought I heard Julia and Fred talking when Alexander said he was snooping last night... Was he eavesdropping on them?)
Lua: *Clings to him* Good morning, dad!
Celeste: Mhm...? *Sits up* (Did someone knock?) *Opens the door*
Julia: I see... *Sees the smirk and frowns a little*
Hamlet: *Laughs a little* Good morning...
Glacier: *At the door* Good morning... *Frowns* Did I wake you? I'm sorry.
Aurora: Just so you know, I'm pretty sure Alexander was snooping on your conversation with Fred last night. Apparently it was pretty juicy. Wanna share the details? I love gossip.
Lua: Is mom still asleep? *Shakes her head*
Celeste: Morning.
Julia: Hm? *Frowns more*
Hamlet: I guess so... *Looks over at Jaci*
Glacier: How are you? *Smiles*
Aurora: I'm asking what's up with you and Fred. *Grins*
Lua: Let's wake her up?
Celeste: gnzgbhnzhsnhnhng....
Julia: W-we're fine...

Jaci:*Yelps and blushes* H-Hamlet...?
Celeste: Mhmmm....?
Julia: *Nods* Y-yeah... I am...
Hamlet: *Grinning* Good morning, Jaci...
Glacier: ...I suppose I should leave you alone. You're clearly still tired.
Aurora: Okay. *Doesn't seem convinced*
Alexander: *Comes out of his room is it just me or is he sneaking up behind Aurora is Julia gonna snitch or not*
Jaci: *Laughs a little and pulls him into a hug* Good morning...
Lua: *Joins the hug* Morning, mom!
Celeste: Nah... Tell me what you want.
Julia: *Her eyes widen*
Hamlet: *Returns the hug to both of them* So how are you this morning?
Glacier: I... *Pauses* I don't know. I just felt like talking...
Aurora: What? *Starts to turn around*
Alexander: *Pounces and wraps his arms around her waist from behind her, grinning*
Aurora: *Squeals in surprise and then laughs* Alexander!
Alexander: Did I scare you? *Rests his chin on her shoulder*
Aurora: *Blushes* Of course not! Right, Julia? *Aren't they so cute*
Lua: I love you so much...
Celeste *Gets out of the room and closes the door behind her* i'm down. *Rubs her eye*
Julia: *Smiles weakly at them*
Hamlet: I love you too, Lua.
Glacier: So... *Goes awkwardly silent, he wants to be social but he never really got the hang of it...*
Alexander: *Kisses her cheek and lets go of her, then looks at Julia* Good morning, Julia. How did things go with Fred?
Aurora: (I knew there was Fred drama.)
Jaci: We both love you very much. *Running a hand through her hair*

Celeste: Is there anything you want to talk about or...?
Julia: Oh... They went... Well. We... *Blushes* We... Made up...
Hamlet: ...Lua...? *Frowns*
Glacier: No, I just... *Looks down I think he's just been so lonely*
Aurora: (That's some awkwardness and blushing...) *Grins at Julia* Oh, you *made up?* That's nice. *Winks*
Alexander: *Frowns* That's... (Disgusting and somehow makes me angry.) ...Great.
Lua: *Clings to Jaci*
Jaci: *Frowns over at Hamlet* Hey... What's wrong?
Celeste: Oh... Well...
Julia: *Blushes more*
Hamlet: *Hugs both of them closer to himself, frowning more*
Glacier: Sorry... I'm just... excited to have someone to talk to again. Since that happened, I haven't really had anyone around.

Alexander: Okay. *Sets that up and shows her the controls* ...So you just tap whatever attack you want your pokemon to use against mine. Got it?
Lua: *Smiles sadly at him*
Celeste: I want a lizard.
Julia: I guess i did...
Hamlet: (What is she hiding? What's the future like?) *Looks down*
Glacier: Lizards are unsanitary. They carry salmonella.
Alexander: Great! You get the first turn. *Prepares for the intense battle with this big scary looking pokemon*
Aurora: He's going to pulverize you.
Lua: Are you hungry?
Celeste: Good.
Julia: *Taps something random*
Hamlet: Not really. Are you?
Glacier: How is that good...?
*The attack is super effective*
Aurora: Beginner's luck...
Alexander: *Taps something that purposely does little damage and cringes* Uh oh. Bad move...
Aurora: You should have known that wouldn't work against a Pokemon of that type.
Alexander: Since when did you become a Pokemon expert?
Aurora: Since I got determined to beat you at it. *Grins*
Lua: A little...
Celeste: *Grins at him*
Julia: *Grins* (Am i really that good?)
Hamlet: Want some hamster food?
Glacier: *Looks a little scared *
Alexander: *Grins and keeps playing against her, losing badly... it's so embarrassing*
Aurora: *Watching in disbelief*
Lua: *Nods* Please!
Celeste: Do you have any plans... For the future..?
Julia: *Smiling* Am i really that good?
Hamlet: Okay, let's go. *Gets out of bed and heads for his habitat, where the hamster food is*
Glacier: Me? I... *Pauses* I haven't thought about it since I ran away.
Alexander: Wow, you're amazing. You beat me. *Grins*
Aurora: How!?
Lua: *Follows*
Celeste: *Frowns*
Julia: How? *Beaming*
Hamlet: *Turns into hamster form and gets in, then heads for the food bowl* (...It's empty!)
Glacier: What about you? Any future plans...?
Alexander: You're a natural! Great job, Julia.
Aurora: *In disbelief*
Lua: *Does the same*
Celeste: Well... I'm going to marry Macha... And we'll have a baby... *She frowns a little*
Julia: *Aww look at her smile*
Hamlet: I can't believe it. Onyx and Amelia forgot to feed me! *Boy you can get your own food*
Glacier: *Frowns when she frowns* Well... I suppose that's nice?
Alexander: So, what did you think? Was it fun?
Lua: *Frowns* Can't you just get it by yourself?
Celeste: (It's not really what i wanted to do with my life... I do love Macha, but...)
Julia: *Beaming* It was!
Hamlet: I mean, I guess so, but just because they know I'm a human too now doesn't mean they shouldn't keep spoiling me.
Glacier: You don't seem very excited about it...
Alexander: *Grins* Great! Wanna play again?
Lua: *Laughs a little* I wanna be spoiled, too!
Celeste: It's just... Not the lofe i dreamed of. The wholes starting a family thing. I'm glad i met Macha and i love him... *Sighs* I was the one who proposed to him... B-but i don't know... Being married and having kids isn't really my thing...
Julia: Yes!
Hamlet: *Sighs and gets out, then transforms into a human and grabs the bag of hamster food* I can't believe this....*Pouts and fills up the bowl*
Glacier: *Nods* Well... if it isn't what you want, then perhaps you shouldn't do it. Getting married to him, I mean. And... as for the child... *Frowns* I don't know.
Alexander: Okay! *Grins and sets up another battle* Good luck. I'm definitely not going easy on you!
Lua: You could ask mom spoil you instead. *Grins*
Celeste: I-i will talk to him..
Julia: *Grins wide* Okay!
Hamlet: *Goes back into hamster form and to the food bowl* ...You're right, I could. *Aww look at the little hamster grin*
Glacier: *Nods* Just be honest with him. If he's worth your time, surely he'll understand.
Alexander: *Starts playing with a big grin*
Aurora: *Watches intensely*
Lua: Ask her to spoil me, too...
Celeste: I was the one who proposed to him, though...
Julia: *She's 1% better this time*
Hamlet: You should be the one to ask! She has a soft spot for you.
Glacier: Sometimes people change their mind... it's okay to.
Alexander: *Still letting her win* (Wait, she's doing well again... I might lose for real soon.)

Maya looks around the library... she sees rows and rows of dusty books on high shelves, but there is no ladder and it feels as though the place has not been touched for years... She walks up to a shelf on her right and chooses a random book with a crimson cover. It's title says, "A History of Evil". The copyright print says it was written in the early 1840's!
*The door to the library opens and closes, and there's the sound of footsteps behind Maya*

Maya quickly puts the book back on the shelf, not caring if it's in the right place or not, and ducks behind a small table
Adiran: *Muttering* Where was that book on how to... *His voice trails off as he starts looking through some books on a shelf, they seem to be mostly related to science and technology*

Maya slinks out from under the table and tries to sneak away, but accidentally knocks over a pile of dusty books and starts coughing.
Adiran: *Startled, he turns to her direction* Hello? *Approaches and frowns when he sees her* (It's a kid...) Hey, you should really be more careful.

Maya rolls her eyes at him and runs out of the library.
Lua: *Does the same*
Celeste: Well... I'm going to marry Macha... And we'll have a baby... *She frowns a little*
Julia: *Aww look at her smile*
I feel the hearts beating
Adiran: Hey, wait! Keep running inside and you'll break something! *Quickly walks after her*

Maya easily outruns Adiran and hides behind some curtains. After he passes, she quietly and carefully walks back to the library.
Adiran: *Sighs* (Where did she go?) *Stops searching and goes back to the library for the book he needed*

Maya, after realizing that Adiran will probably be going back to the library too, just walks right past it and instead finds herself in a laundry room.

Julia: *Grins wide* Okay!

Maya looks around the room a little bit, and finds and overly large laundry shoot. It's big enough to fit an average-sized 14-year-old girl. Maya slides down it, and lands on a soft bit of floor. She stands up, and looks around. Inside the bedroom, she sees ancient ruins. Immediately, she deciphers them, and finds these words:
Twins shall enter the woods.
They shall climb to the roof.
One shall lose their words.
"Isabel...." Maya thinks.
The other shall find out what's aloof.
If they make it to the House in the Clearing, I shall be freed.
And let loose the villain's greed.
Maya stares at the ruins. This is about her. Her and Isabel. But why hasn't the speaker been freed? Then Maya realizes. Isabel was never allowed in here as a guest. They didn't all make it.
