It's been three years since Annie has been living with Mr. Deer Head, nothing much has changed except for now she knows over a thirty languages and fifty accents. She has been travelling with him so much that she soon lost her ability to feel hungry or to eat. She has lost of time and experienced a mere death for quite allot. She used to be scared but snow her numbness took control of her, that's what she thinks she is until...

The two of them were chatting while taking their last stroll through the town of France and a faint squeal came out of the dark Ally. Annie asks " what was that?" Dear head replied with a low voice " curiosity can kill the cat" Annie liked disappointed The skull continued " however satisfaction can bring it back" Annie nodded following the sound as it gets more slower and quiet.

The Ally was long and dark but Annie can navigate through the dark no problem, Annie ran towards the sound, Mr deer head on her tail, still keeping himself in the darkness. Annie turned the corner seeing two shadows one larger and almost covering the small one Annie walks slowly towards the two shadows as Tenebris stayed in the shadow watching over her.

The close she gets the more distorted the shapes get soon realises that she did a huge mistake. The man who seems to look like helping her is now putting his hands on the small girl's neck squeezing so hard the face of the little girl is turning purple. The girl is unable to speak and unable to move. Annie ran for her aid skidding the man's throat with her pocket knife.

The man died immediately. Annie dragged the body into the shadows where Tenebris puts his soul in hell.

Annie grabs the girl in her arms, not knowing what to do as the girl struggles to breath. Tears running down her face as she looked at the sad Annie while taking her last breath.

Annie broke down crying, blaming herself for not knowing what to do.

She fealt a cold hand grabbing her shoulder " is your curiosity fulfilled?" Deer Head questioned.

Annie turned towards him with her tear filled eyes as letting him know that she is well lessoned.

Tenebris glared at the crying girl holding a carcass tightly.

" Let's go back for today it's getting quite late and you still need to rest" he signs grabbing her hands and in a flick both of them disappeared into thin air.
