The group of survivors were slowly gathering in the room for the next motive.  Once it was fully filled up Monotaro laughed chilling on the throne.  "My my you all have really dwindled down" added Monotaro.  "I love the despair you've given me as well... Oh my father would be proud" he said.  "H̥ͦe̥ͦḁͦr̥ͦt̥ͦl̥ͦe̥ͦs̥ͦs̥ͦs̥ͦs̥ͦ p̥ͦi̥ͦe̥ͦc̥ͦe̥ͦ o̥ͦf̥ͦ j̥ͦu̥ͦn̥ͦk̥ͦ" spat Samael.  Monotaro growled and looked at the snake demon.  "Ok yes the last execution was a bit too close to home... But eh he still needed the death cause he was blackened" added Monotaro.  Baron noticed Monotaro didn't seem to catch the transparent Raef in the room. 

"ⓗⓔ ⓒⓐⓝ'ⓣ ⓢⓔⓔ ⓨⓞⓤ" he whispered.  "ɛҳ℘ɛƈɬɛɖ... ı'ƖƖ ცɛ Ɩɛʂʂ ۷ıʂıცƖɛ ɬơ ɬɧɛ ცơɬ ῳɧıƈɧ ıʂ ῳɧყ ɧɛ ơŋƖყ ƙŋɛῳ ı ῳąʂ ɬɧɛrɛ ῳɧɛŋ ℘ơʂʂɛʂʂıŋɠ ʑơƖʑąr" whispered Raef.  Monotaro noticed Zolzar looked normal.  "Looks like someone's been freed from their hitchhiker, good now I can officially give this motive" added Monotaro.  "σн ωнαт ¢συℓ∂ вє αиу ωσяѕє тнєи вα∂вσωѕкι gσιиg ѕαω ∂υє тσ мσтινє" stated Liza split annoyed.   Monotaro suddenly revealed a display containing nine keys in it.  Bretman and Raef were wide eyed.  "The jeweled keys" they said. 

Raef growled looking away.  "ı ɧąɖ ɬɧơʂɛ Ɩơƈƙɛɖ ıŋ ɱყ ʂɛƈrɛɬ ۷ąųƖɬ ıŋ ʝơɛყ'ʂ ąŋɖ ɖąŋıɛƖ'ʂ ɧơųʂɛ".   " ʂơɱɛơŋɛ ɱųʂɬ'۷ɛ ცrơƙɛŋ ıŋ ąŋɖ ʂɬơƖɛ ɬɧɛɱ" he muttered.  "I see the Baron is very familiar with these" added Monotaro.  "ⓨⓔⓐⓗ ⓑⓘⓣⓒⓗ ⓦⓗⓐⓣ ⓐⓡⓔ ⓨⓞⓤ ⓓⓞⓘⓝⓖ ⓦⓘⓣⓗ ⓣⓗⓞⓢⓔ?!" Demanded Baron.  "You'll seee" added Monotaro.  The keys suddenly glowed and flew at the survivors with a few of them striking their hearts making all their memories come back.   "Unfortunately I can't use this key because the one it's connected to is already dead " added Monotaro.

Baron noticed the pirate key.  "ⓢⓟⓔⓒⓣⓡⓐ'ⓢ...." He murmured.  Raef looked around a bit.  The others were all stunned and looked at each other now with all their memories back.  "I̶ k̶n̶o̶w̶ I̶ m̶o̶s̶t̶l̶y̶ h̶a̶d̶ m̶y̶ m̶e̶m̶o̶r̶i̶e̶s̶ b̶u̶t̶ l̶u̶c̶k̶i̶l̶y̶ t̶h̶e̶ k̶e̶y̶ r̶e̶s̶t̶o̶r̶e̶d̶ t̶h̶e̶ r̶e̶s̶t̶" added Vizad.  Infelix and Skybrine came at Monotaro making the bear step aside and the duo hit the chair and each other.  "y̸o̸u̸ m̸e̸c̸h̸a̸n̸i̸c̸a̸l̸ b̸i̸t̸c̸h̸ h̸o̸w̸ d̸a̸r̸e̸ y̸o̸u̸ c̸a̸p̸t̸u̸r̸e̸ u̸s̸!" Added Infelix.  "პႶმპRlტჯ.... ოჄ ႲႩRႠႶპR iႶ ეRiოპ... Ⴌტw ეტႮlმ ჄტႮ ႽპႲႩRႩႠპ ႮႽ?!* added Skybrine. 

Monotaro scratched both of them making the duo back up and hold their faces.  " ι∂ισтѕ... уσυ вσтн нα∂ тσ вє ι∂ισтѕ " added Liza split.  Monotaro chuckled and looked at everyone.  "Well try processing that pawns, I've restored your memories, and these keys were stolen from the actual owner" added Monotaro.  "S͛t͛o͛l͛e͛n͛... A͛r͛e͛ y͛o͛u͛ s͛e͛r͛i͛o͛u͛s͛?" Asked Elissa.  Monotaro nodded and did a mechanical claw thumbs up.  "Ding ding ding correct my dear".  "Now the big question is with all you remember would you settle old scores or who knows?" Asked Monotaro. 

He giggled and disappeared.  "I̥ͦ... R̥ͦe̥ͦm̥ͦe̥ͦm̥ͦb̥ͦe̥ͦr̥ͦͦ...r̥ͦo̥ͦi̥ͦ i̥ͦs̥ͦ m̥ͦy̥ͦ v̥ͦe̥ͦs̥ͦs̥ͦe̥ͦl̥ͦ, aͦ s̥ͦn̥ͦḁͦk̥ͦe̥ͦ w̥ͦo̥ͦm̥ͦḁͦn̥ͦ m̥ͦḁͦd̥ͦe̥ͦ m̥ͦe̥ͦ..."

Added Baron.  "ʏєѧһ... һє яєғєяєṅċєԀ ṭһє ṃєԀıєṿѧʟ є×һıɞıṭ ɞєċѧȗṡє һє ṡѧıԀ ẇȏȗʟԀ ʏȏȗ ṡєṭṭʟє ȏʟԀ ṡċȏяєṡ" responded Talia. 

Vizad and the others overheard the duo and stopped.  "S̶o̶u̶n̶d̶s̶ l̶i̶k̶e̶ h̶e̶'s̶ t̶a̶l̶k̶i̶n̶g̶ a̶b̶o̶u̶t̶ o̶l̶d̶ f̶a̶s̶h̶i̶o̶n̶e̶d̶ d̶u̶e̶l̶l̶i̶n̶g̶" added Vizad.  "o̸k̸ y̸o̸u̸ t̸w̸o̸ a̸r̸e̸ t̸a̸l̸k̸i̸n̸g̸ l̸i̸k̸e̸ m̸o̸n̸o̸t̸a̸r̸o̸ w̸a̸s̸ p̸r̸e̸d̸i̸c̸t̸i̸n̸g̸ t̸h̸e̸ n̸e̸x̸t̸ m̸u̸r̸d̸e̸r̸" added Infelix.  "ωнαт ιf нє ωαѕ?"

"ႺlႩმ ჄტႮ ႪტႠႬ ႪპႩႠ ႮႽ Ⴀტ ႠႬႩႠ" added Skybrine.  Raef faced everyone.  "ῳɧơɛ۷ɛr ɖıɖ ıɬ ʂɬơƖɛ ɬɧɛ ƙɛყʂ ʄrơɱ ɱყ ۷ąųƖɬ... ı ƙɛ℘ɬ ɬɧɛɱ ɬɧɛrɛ ąʄɬɛr ɱყ ƙıƖƖıŋɠ ɠąɱɛ ı ῳąʂ ıŋ" he added.  "W̶a̶i̶t̶ t̶h̶a̶t̶ m̶e̶a̶n̶s̶ s̶o̶m̶e̶o̶n̶e̶ b̶r̶o̶k̶e̶ i̶n̶t̶o̶ J̶o̶e̶y̶'s̶ a̶n̶d̶ D̶̶a̶̶n̶̶i̶̶e̶̶l̶̶'s̶ h̶o̶u̶s̶e̶ a̶n̶d̶ t̶o̶o̶k̶ t̶h̶e̶m̶" added Vizad.  Raef nodded a bit.  The group looked around worried.  "L͙e͙t͙'s͙ g͙e͙t͙ s͙o͙m͙e͙ r͙e͙s͙t͙...

The group nodded and everyone headed off. 

(AN: done.   But my updates will be sporadic at least for a little bit.   I've got some other things to do.  But anyway hope you enjoy and who could be the thief?).
