Ivy saw a red head man with green eyes and black face makeup around them. "Hi, you must be Ivy, i'm Jason, Jason the toymaker",he said hugging Ivy. Ivy looked behind him to see Toby playing dolls with Sally and the kids. Ivy ran up to them and hugged them tight. Ivy's phone beeped, it was Alexander.
Alexander: Hey umm can you come over here....like now?
Ivy: Idk, but i'll try what's up?
Alexander:Please just hurry
Ivy:ok...
Ivy wondered what was wrong she grabbed the girls hand and began to walk when Jason picked her up. "Sorry, you can't leave", said Jason taking her away from the door. "Wha-why!!, PUT ME DOWN!", said Ivy beating on his back. "Ok, soon as I get you away from the door", said Jason while L.J locked the door. Jason sat her down on a chair in what looked like a kitchen. Ivy tried to get back up and run grabbing the kids hands, but L.J grabbed her. 'Don't you understand!!, all you do is text your little so called friend when he's the one you should stay away from!!", screamed L.J. Ivy has tears in her eyes and was about to cry "what do you mean by I should stay away from him?", said Ivy standing up. "...Nothing...forget I said it.....", said L.J turning away from Ivy. "Idiot's done it now", thought Jason shaking his head. Ivy's voice was sad"what do you mean by stay away from him?". "Forget it", said L.J still not turning away from Ivy. "Guys.........s-sorry t-to interrupt your a-argument b-but we have to go...", Toby walked in, with Alexis on his shoulder. "Ok..how much time do we have?", said Jason picking up Alexis off his shoulder. "About t-two hours", said Toby. "If we are going anywhere first off me and the kids need to shower, so one of you wake up Alexis while I tell Mariah to get in the shower", said Ivy wiping her face and standing up. They were all silent and listened to Ivy. Ivy told Mariah to get in the shower, once she got out Ivy put Alexis in. Then Ivt got in,Toby knocked on the door and told her she had to be out in 20 minutes. Ivy styled her hair into loose curls,but then she remembered she didn't bring extra clothes for herself. She called out to Jason and asked of their were any clothes for herself, Jason brought several clothes, Ivy wondered where he got them but she didn't ask. Jason brought 3 different clothing choices, She decided to put on black high top Nike shoes, with camouflage leggings, a black v-neck shirt, and small hoop earrings. She walked out the bathroom, L.J stared at her as she walked down the stairs. The sun was setting outside when they walked out. Alexis talked with Sally and Mariah played Toby, Jason was rambling to himself about someone named ZALGO, meanwhile Ivy could feel L.J starring at her, she didn't want to speak with him or see him so she kept walking. They began to hear sounds in the trees they all began to look around, Ivy pulled the kids close to her 3 people came from out of the trees. One was a man had stitches coming along the side of his face, with a black and grey scarf around his neck, one was a female with light blue skin,bloody lips with stitches running across her mouth,black eyes with red pupils,wild and curly dark blue hair, red choker necklace, and a nightgown complete with red slippers, and the last was a female clown figure that looked a lot liked L.J except she had on a black mask with black and white leggings. "Liu,Ebony,and Zero, what do you want?", said Jason stepping in front of them. "We want the girl and the kids", said the male Ivy guessed was Liu. "Unfortunately your not getting none of them because their with is", said L.J standing by Jason. Toby looked over at Ivy and mouthed out the words run Ivy mouthed back where, and Toby pointed out a direction where she saw Jane and Clockwork, she quickly walked away with the kids, she tried to grab Sally's hand when Sally pulled away she lookwe up at Toby and he mouthed out leave her. Ivy walked over to Jane and Clockwork, Clockwork hugged Ivy and the kids and whispered good luck in Ivy's ear "for what", she mouthed back, but Clockwork didn't hear her as she ran off in the distance. Jane called over Ivy and they walked over to a car and got in. "Aunt Ivy i'm hungry", said Alexis as she la layed her heas on Mariah's lap. "Ok well eat soon ok?", said Ivy, she looked over at Jane and mouthed right. Jane shook her head yes, Ivy's phone beeped, it was Alexander. Ivy thought about what L.J said "he's the one you should stay away from!", those words recalled in her mind. She looked over at Jane, "L.J said I shouldn't talk to Alexander..that I should stay away from him...what did he mean by that?", Ivy asked her voice gloomy. "You'll learn what he meant all in time but for now just continue to talk to him so he won't suspect anything", said Jane grabbing Ivy's hand. Ivy nodded and decided to text Alexander.
