3rd Person Pov
His eyes hurt from crying.
They were puffy and felt heavy.
I swear..... I'm gonna kill that bastard.... and that *****.
Penelope.... I swear..... I'll avenge you......
I'm sorry..... I'm so sorry..... Its my fault...... I never should've left you.... I should've just taken you with me back then......
Then maybe.... none of this would've happened.....
Are you perhaps....... punishing me....? For ever having left you......?
I'll apologize over and over...... Come back please...... Don't leave me..... I'm begging you......
His eyes were shutting slowly. The slow but steady movements of Rengoku lulling him to sleep.
With lidded eyes, he thought of her and only her.
One more time..... Give me another chance.....
Slowly, Shinobu's soft chuckles, Sanemi's aggressive voice and Mitsuri's loud exclamations dissipated into nothingness.

She sat up hastily, her hand clutching her neck.
"Oh my, you are awake?" - ???
Her blurry, tear filled eyes focused on the figure.
"Em-Emily...?" - Penelope
She was then made aware of the stabbing pain in her arm.
Black and blue dots littered her arm.
"Hmm? What is it?" - Emily
She looked around her room.
"How.....?" - Penelope
Wasn't I beheaded?
Her hands felt her neck again.
How am I still alive?!
I was definitely dead.... I definitely died then! So how?!
Eclise was protecting me and-!
"Where is Eclise?" - Penelope
"Pardon?" - Emily
"Answer the question Emily. Where is Eclise?" - Penelope
"I'll do you one better! Who is Eclise?" - Emily
"I'll do you one better! Why is Eclise?!" - Reynold
"Don't break the fourth wall, you fools! And you came in way too early! Now get out!" - Penelope
"My bad!" - Reynold * leaves *
[Let's forget this happened, alright?]
"Ahem! So you said you don't know Eclise?" - Penelope
"Stop this nonsense, my lady! You must get ready for the Second Prince's Birthday Banquet! Now, come and have breakfast! I prepared it myself." - Emily
She washed her face with the cold water that was offered to her every single morning.
She shivered harshly and quickly dried up the remaining drops of water on her face using her shirtsleeves as the cloth offered was more spoiled than Lady Kellen.
She sat at the table, thinking everything over.
Second Prince's Birthday Banquet...... That's two months before my birthday.....
