I woke up in my bed, confused I shrugged and got up to change putting the drawing next to the mirror. I didn't like everything in my closet, actually I didn't like most of what's in my closet so I suppose I would ask to go to the store and get new cloths I liked. I found a light purple dress I would actually wear and put it on, then I put my hair in ponytails after brushing it. After that I nocked on my bedroom door purposely leaving off my shoes and socks. The door opened and I walked out. I wandered the halls and saw a piano. I ran to it and sat down, I got used to the guards always standing at the door, at the ready. I chose not to talk to them in case Thomas decided to kill them again. I began to play 'The Power of Love'. (Video) when I finished playing I heard someone speak behind me.
"Beautiful"
I looked to see Thomas.
"Thanks"
I smiled at him.
"One of your friends is here"
"Really?!"
I got up quickly and ran to him.
"Where?"
He nodded down the hallway where I heard voices. I ran down the hall and opened the door. I saw Alois talking to a guard. He stopped when he saw me and tears filled both out eyes. I dropped to my knees and held out my arms to which he ran into. I hugged him and he hugged back.
"Momma, I missed you"
He said. He started calling me mom a while after I came back the first time and that was fine with me, even though we were basically the same age he was smaller and lighter than me and in need of a mother.
"I missed you to, so much Alois."
He pulled back and I wiped away his tears then mine. I stood up and picked him up. I set him on my hip like a smaller child and I ruffle his hair.
"What would you like to do?"
I asked him.
"Sing that song for me, the one I heard you singing when I got here."
I smiled.
"Alright."
I walked with him on my hip all the way to the room I was playing piano in. I set him down next to the seat and he sat next to me. While I was playing again I would smile while singing to him. When I finished he hugged me again.
"I missed your singing."
"I missed your smile"
"Claude misses you to! He doesn't admit it but he really loves you. I guess that happened when he awoke you that first time."
Just then I realized something. If I use the creator bond between me and Claude then I should be able to break the one with Thomas!
"Say Alois, would you like to go to the garden with me? It's much different from your mansion."
He nodded and I kissed his nose making him and I smile. I picked him up again and he wound his legs around my waist and his arms around my neck. I walked towards where I knew the back door was and I was surprised when there was no guards. I suppressed my shock and kept walking, that makes it easier to ask Alois to do this task. When we walked around a little we stopped at a bench.
"Alois, you know I don't want to stay here. Would you do something to help me?"
"Always! What do you need?"
"I need you to tell Claude to use our bond when he first made me a demon, that bond is much stronger then my bond with Thomas. That will throw him off and Claude will make me live with you two again. When Thomas finally breaks we can kill him."
I whispered in his ear while hugging him. He pulled back and nodded. Just then a guard came and told us visiting was over. I walked Alois on my hip back to the room I found him in and set him down. He began to cry again so I wiped away his tears.
"Don't be sad."
I told him and he nodded. Thomas stood in the doorway and motioned for me to come. I stood and walked over to him.
"Mom!"
I turned to Alois who had more tears. He ran quickly to me and hugged me hard. I put my hand over his head and then picked him up and hugged him.
"Time to go Hakai."
Thomas said in a strained voice. Then Alois was pulled from my grasp and I was pulled back by my hair. I screamed in pain and I heard Alois scream for me, his mom. The door between us closed with a slam and I was pulled all the way to my room then thrown inside and my door was pulled tightly closed and I heard it get locked. I ran to my window and pressed my palm to it as I watched Alois get escorted to his carriage by four guards. I looked down at my cloths, they were torn from the brutal exchange. I sighed and changed into my pajamas and climbed into my coffin.
