Lisa Pov-
I was in the room looking for Bens Journal but couldn't find it.

Lisa. Alright think where's the last place you left it. I remember I had it in the library. Dammit can my Discordance turn on so I can find it.

I start to go in the Library to go find it hoping nobody is reading it.

Blake's Pov-

I sat in a empty class room with Yang as she was talking about how I should go to the dance.  She was talking about how we should take our time looking for the White Fang but I wanted to leave and go back to doing research on the White Fang but for some reason I found this book that looked interesting to read. I opened the book wondering what's it's about saying it's from a guy named Benedict Backer. I then hear Yang yell at me.

Yang: Are you even paying attention to me?!

Blake: Yes continue Yang.

Yang: Alright-....Hey isn't that An's book?

I looked confused as I looked at it again noticing that it looked just like the book she always carries around.

Blake: I think it is, I found it in the Library laying next to me.

Yang: Well I think you should give that back. An got really angry when Ruby was touching it.

Blake: I guess but I kind of want to see what's so interesting about this?

Yang comes sits next to me as I look at the cover of the book.

Yang: Well you can do that when you promise me you'll go to the dance.

I look down and think about it. Maybe she's right I need to take a break on this investigation. I smile at Yang.

Blake: Alright I'll come to the dance...

Yang: Yes!

She gives me a hug as I hug her back she then starts to leave.

Yang: I better see you their got it.

I give her a nod as she leaves the room as I look back at the book. I open it to read of a man looking for a place. I soon realize this wasn't some ordinary book. This was someone else's journal.

Blake: Why does An have this?

The more I read the journal the darker it gets.

"Each Killer seems to have been pulled from a place of great darkness, their own violent actions summon this most ancient of evils from its slumber. The Entity reaches out, taking them into the place between worlds where it demands they do its bidding. They must hunt and kill the prey set in front of them. Some go willingly, others need to be convinced. The Entity tortures them until they are much less human and far more thing, until the last light of humanity has faded from their souls and they take up their weapons and sacrifice the Survivors."

Blake: Survivors? Their were others in this place.

I keep turning pages learning more about what this person has gone through. I kept turning pages to the killers of the place. Trapper, Hag, Doctor Who were these people. Why does An have this book? I turn the page to see it called the Legion. Before I could read it the door slammed opened behind me. I quickly closed the book looking behind me to see An their breathing heavily as she looked in my direction. She then stomped to me snatching the book out of my hands and looked at it.

An: How much did you read....

Their was a couple seconds of silence until I answered.

Blake: Who's Benedict?

She flinches a little but then looks calm as I could hear my own heart beat beating out my chest. I felt scared for some reason it felt like I needed to run far from here. Soon everything calmed down as she looked at me taking a deep breath.

An: Blake....It's best you don't read anything else from this book. Thats a warning.

I just nod as she leaves the room and closes the door but that book was still on my mind. Why doesn't she want anyone to touch it? I think if I read more of that Journal I can learn more about An but something tells me that I shouldn't.

Lisa Pov-

I walk away from the room holding the book close to my chest. Making sure no one took it from me.

Lisa: Blake.....you should know curiosity killed the cat....don't be that cat.

I walk away back to the room making sure to put it in a secure location.

Flashback-

I finally killed the third person as I went to hatch I held on to the journal that the man dropped as I wanted to return this to him. For some reason I felt like I needed to return this to him even though he was going to die here. I soon see him looking at his surroundings making sure I wasn't around even though I was right in front of him as he saw me in front of the hatch. He made a run for it to make an escape but sadly for him I closed it. He looked at me and closed his eyes ready for me to kill him. I just stood their as I tossed his book in his face. He looked surprised as he looked at me amazed.

Ben: Your not going to kill me?

I nod my head no as he looked amazed.

Ben: Do you understand me?

I nod my head yes as he looked like he discovered the cure for the worlds problems or something. It was kind of freaking me out.

Ben: Do you speak?

I was silent for a minute but then spoke.

Lisa: Yes I can speak I just don't talk to other people often...

He looked astonished at my capability to speak but then his face got serious.

Ben: Why do you kill people for this Entity and are you human.

Lisa: Of course I'm human and for the first question I do it for my goal....

Ben: What is your goal?

I look at the ground telling me he was about to die soon as I looked at him.

Lisa: Well this was a nice chat but I just wanted to return this journal to you......sooooo bye.

He looked confused but then realized something as he looked at the ground.

Ben: Wait I still-

Suddenly the Entity pierces his chest as he screamed in agony then disappeared as a sacrifice. I sigh as I made my way back to the rest of the killers.
