H: i think most of us did...any ideas on what to do guys?
J: i have one
F: that's great jade
J: yeah... anyway...what if we check iris's place again? maybe there's a clue or something
S: not a bad idea
L: i can go check it out
H: i'll go too
S: perfect, i'll talk to gabrielle some more about it
A: i don't know bear, i've noticed rose has been taking care of stuff a lot more
Mad: i'm sure the mayor just needs a small break, lots of stuff has been happening
S: good point
L: welp i'ma head over
Hope and i walk over to iris's place and i kick open the door
H: what do you think we should be looking for?
L: i don't know...maybe a planner?
H: i'll look in her rooms
L: i'll take care of the living room
I see the green potion from her music video and decide to pocket it...i walk over to the tv...nothing seems out of the ordinary...i pick up a red thread
H: found anything?
L: not much-
Suddenly the thread ties my hands behind my back
L: what the?-
H: lex?
The tv turns on and starts flashing...i can't look away from it...my limbs start to feel numb...i'm slightly glitching out
H: h-hold on lemme help
Hope POV
I didn't even know lex could glitch like shatter. I grab her pocket knife and try cutting the thread...it just tightens and slices the knife-
H: holy shit it cut the knife-
I look at the tv...it's black and white footage of...where even is that? No time. I look at lexi who's on her knees...her eyes are flashing
H: lex? are you okay? look at me-
?: she can't hear you
H: *gasp*
Iris??? I look back at the tv and see her smiling
I: hello
H: what the hell are you doing to her?
I: hm? oh she's in a trance...don't worry it doesn't hurt her...too badly
H: WELL GET HER THE HELL OUT OF IT-
I: no i don't think i will...oh look babe it's your friends
She pulls someone into view by the hair...it's max-
H: MAX
I: hm...you don't seem too thrilled-
H: i swear GOD YOU'RE gonna fucking regret this shit once we find you
I: oh she will...i personally find this whole thing rather entertaining
I can see the panic in Max's eyes but she can't seem to move as Iris kisses her sewn up lips
H: get OFF her
I: why? i'm just giving her what she wants... isn't that right?
She moves max's head up and down like a puppet...it makes my blood boil
I: anyway...i was PLANNING on sending the message with only shatter and ruby...but with lexie here alone...well things can move along much quicker
H: what the hell are you talking about? DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH MY GIRLFRIEND
I: oh i'm not the one you have to worry about
She points at Lex...she's looking right at her
I: now listen to me lex-
H: what? no no no no no LEX COME ON LOOK AT ME P-PLEASE LOOK AT ME-
I: now i saw you take the poison...i want you to drink it
H: NO
Iris rolls her eyes and flicks her wrist making lex slam me to the wall with one hand and grab the drink. I run at her but she already gulped it down...Lex starts to glitch and gag-
H: WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO IRIS
I: i didn't do anything... SHE drank it
The tv shuts off as lex holds her head. I run to her and grab her shoulders
H: lex, lex listen to me, come on-
