Ianite's Pov

"Well, well, well. Isn't this just adorable?" I looked around to see who had spoken. I saw no one. But the voice sounded familiar. "Who are you!? And where are you!?" I yelled. "Ha ha ha. Oh Ianite. Can't you tell? Has it really been that long? Have you forgotten who I am? Your own family?" A cloud of black smoke appeared in front of me. "Don't you remember your father?" The black cloud faded away and a man in a dark cloak stood in front of me. "N-No! It can't be! You died over 50 years ago!" I scream back at the man. "I technically died. It's like what happened to Dianite. How his spirit still exists but he has no body. That is what happened to me. Of course, I died soon after I murdered him but my plan still works." I looked at him in shock. I couldn't think of anything to say. Finally my voice came back to me. "W-Why am I-I here then?" I asked. He smiled evilly and pointed to my daughter. "You've already met one of them. Dozens more have been made. Of course I can't tell you my whole plan but it involves you and your quintessence." He waved and walked to the doorway out. "Goodbye my daughter." He then walked out laughing evilly. "Come back here!" I yelled. "Come back....."

I first see the fox leave and then the wizard and sparkly man. I walk over to the window and see Martha leave the kitchen. I slowly open the window and I sneak in. On the table is my prey. I pull out a dagger and raise it over his head. He's passed out so he won't be able to scream. That's good. I bring the dagger down onto his head and crimson blood splatters over me. A pool of blood slowly starts to form around his head and it drips onto the floor. "AHHH!!" I look behind me and Martha is standing there. I lash out at her but I only cut her arm. I then rush out of the house and to the town of Dagrun. I run through the town, bumping into a few people and 'accidentally' hitting them with the dagger. I slowly start to walk. I reach the pub and sit down at the bar. The other people in the pub just stare at me. "What'll you be having?" The bartender asks. "A meat wine hybrid." The bartender nods and gestures to a door behind him. I walk in and sit down on the chair against the left wall. "So, what happened? Is Jericho dead?" My master says. He's wearing his cloak and has his hood on so I can't see his face. "Yes. And I may have hit some townspeople." I smile devilishly. "Good but I don't think that you needed to kill some of the villagers. We came here for the sky people. Not the town." My master says. "Did you hurt anybody else?" He asks. "Yes...." I start. "Who!?" He yells. "Martha the Mystic..." I look up at him and his hands clench into tight fists. "I only cut her arm. Nothing serious." I say. He stands up and walks over to me. His right arm is hidden and his left arm is behind his back. He raises his left arm and slaps me. I fall onto the floor and rub my cheek in pain. "You serviced me well. Too bad that I can't let you go. You know too much about me and my plans. I'm sorry Tom." I look over at him and he has taken his hood off. This is the first time I have seen his face. He has green hair and it looks like some of it has fused to his face. I look at his face longer and see that it is creeper skin. He has a bright red scarf covering his mouth. His right eye is no longer there instead there is just a hole. Like his eye was gauged out. "Goodbye Tom. You are now relieved from your guard duties." He raises a gun, I hear him shoot and everything goes black.

Sparklez Pov

"SCREECH!!!" I jerk awake too find a mandrake running around my bedroom. "Tom!" I yell. I get up. The cold air stings against my bare skin. I shiver and pull out a safari net. I run around for a bit trying to catch the mandrake and I corner it in the weed farm. I capture the mandrake in the safari net and toss the safari net into my golden back of holding. I walk out of the farm and I remember that I'm still only in my boxers. The cold air of my underground base flows by me. I walk back to my bedroom and I put on my black pants, white undershirt, and my black jacket. I sit down on my bed to put my shoes on and I look up at my empty bookshelves. "Please don't fill a diamond chest with books again!" the voices in my head say. "I'm not going to." I say to myself. I pull my shoes on and I walk over to my elevator. As I'm going up, the statue of me makes me jump. "I hate this thing." I say, holding my chest. I walk out onto the midpoint between the two towers of my fortress. I look out onto the world beyond. The sun is rising over Dagrun making it seem like there is a golden glow around the town. I stand there and close my eyes. "Why can't it always be this peaceful?" A memory of Ianite comes back to me. We're sitting on the edge of her island and looking out into the void. We sit there talking about her and Spark and how peaceful it is in the End. I then remember that Ianite is missing. I open my eyes and I look at chest full of Jardon's roses. I grab one and I fly over to Sonja's house. "Hey Sonja!" I say as I walk into her house. "Hey Jordan." She's wearing her orange hoodie but has on pants instead of shorts. "Are you feeling better?" I ask. She nods and walks to her staircase down to her basement. "Do you want to go with me to see him?" I ask. She stops walking down the stairs and turns and smiles at me. "Sure." She turns around and walks with me to Martha's house. "Hey Martha!" I yell. "Sparklez? Is that you?" She asks. "Yes Martha. Sonja's here too." Martha then comes running out of the kitchen closing the door. "I need to talk with Sparklez for a second. Could you possibly step out of the house for a second while I talk to him?" Martha asks Sonja. She nods and walks out of the house. "What did you want to talk abo-" Martha opens the kitchen door and drags me in. What I see nearly causes me to vomit. Tucker is lying on the table with a stab wound in his head. Blood has stopped flowing out but the blood that did is stuck to his face. His eyes are closed but a look of pain is on his face. Pieces of skull are inside the wound, sticking out in awkward places. "W-What happened?" I ask. "A man in teal-ish armour came in. I had left to go check on Tom and when I came back Tucker's face was spurting out blood and the man was standing there. The man attacked me but he only cut my arm." Martha holds out her left arm out. Part of her sleeve is ripped off and a bandage is wrapped around the wound. "How deep is the cut?" I ask. "Not too deep. I'll be fine. I'm just not sure of how FireFoxx will react." I then realize how devastated Sonja will be. "Do you want me to tell her?" I ask. Martha nods and tears start to roll down her cheeks. "Don't cry. You'll be okay. It wasn't your fault." Martha then bursts into tears and falls onto her knees. "Why don't you go talk to Wag, he'll make you feel better." I say as I help Martha up onto her feet. We walk out of the kitchen and out onto the front porch. "Sonja. I need to tell you something." I say. Martha walks off to Wag's tower and her face falls into her hands. "Follow me inside." I say. "Where's Tom?" Sonja asks. I look over at the couch and he's not there. I quickly make up a lie. "He's upstairs in Martha's bedroom sleeping." Sonja nods and walks towards the kitchen. "Sonja, before you go in there, I need to tell you something." She looks at me with a worried look. "Last night, I don't know when, a man came in and......" I trailed off thinking about what to say. "And he................he murdered Tucker." Sonja just stares at me with her hand on the kitchen door. "N-No! H-He can't be dead!" She slams the door open and runs to Tucker's side."NO! No, no, no, no, no, no, no!!!! HE CAN'T BE DEAD!" I walk up to her and pull her into a hug. "Sonja, it's okay. Shh, everything will be okay." She cries into my chest, hugging me tighter. "Shhhh, it's okay." She falls down to her knees, dragging me with her. She sits back onto her feet and wipes the tears from her cheeks. I push her hair out of her face. "It'll be okay. C'mon, let's go find Martha." I help her up and walk her out of Martha's house. Outside is Martha and Wag. "What are you doing here?" I ask. "Wag wanted to come see Tucker." We walk back inside with Martha and Wag. Sonja takes Wag into the kitchen and me and Martha stay back. "Where's Tom?" I ask. "Tom went back to his house this morning. He should be okay. I patched him up before he left." I nodded and looked into the kitchen. Sonja was in tears and Wag was hugging her. "I'm going to go check on him." I said. I walked out and flew over to Tom's house.

Hey all you pros! It's been so long! How've you been? I've been busy with school work and stuff. If you hadn't seen my update book thingy then you may be wondering why I have disappeared. I decided that I would take a break from writing for a bit so that I could catch up on my grades and other stuff that's happening. While I've been gone though, I've been writing this chapter and another. The second chapter is going to be a long one because lots of story stuff will happen. So get hyped! I plan to post it in the next week. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me. I'm always open to answer questions. I'll see all you pros later! Bye!!!

P.S. I've started to read Homestuck so now my life is being sucked away slowly. Bye!
