When I got back to my room I quickly crawled through my bedroom window, making sure to not be seen. 

When I got inside I started to unpack. Dropping my duffle bag onto my bed to deal with later, I made my way over to  bathroom. 

Removing my gloves I filled the sink with water and then soaked them. I also removed my shirt and vest, as well as my pants, as the blood got all over. I grabbed some salt and sprinkled it all over the clothes. The cold water and the salt worked together to draw out the blood, and once the clothes had no more red I wrung them out and hanged them on a tower bar. 

Next I moved onto my weapons. I grabbed a rag from the side of the sink and began to wipe the blood off of the blades, laying them down on the side of the sink to dry once they were clean. 

When I glanced back up towards the mirror I saw that the velvet substance was all over my face, as well as my arms. Reluctantly, I stepped into the shower, cold water rushing all over my skin. The icey temperature sent shivers all over my skin, however I didn't make the water warmer. I simply let the cold envelope me. By the time I finished scrubbing the stubborn substance out of my skin and hair I could visibly see my breath. 

Exiting the bathroom I went over to my dresser grabbing some boxers and sweatpants. I slipped both onto my body and then went towards the duffle bag. Removing the various jars from the bag I placed them all on the desk. When the bag was empty I looked back and took inventory. 

10 jars of blood, 3 jars of eyes, 5 jars with ribs, 7 jars with spines. 

Happy with the haul I put the rib and spine jars along with the rest of my powders and ingredients. Then I pulled out my first journal and looked around the room. I found a cabinet that looked innocent enough and made my way over. 

Opening the cabinet I found it was quite large, which was good for what I needed it for. 

I flipped through my journal until I landed on a cooling spell. All I needed to complete it was some scales from a mermaid tail, deep mint leaves, and ice crystals. All of which I have. I quickly gathered the materials and grabbed my handy mortar and pestle. After measuring out the ingredients I mashed them into a fine powder. Grabbing a fistfull of the powder I made my way over to the cabinet. 

As I sprinkled the concoction over the drawer I chanted in latin over and over again until I ran out of powder. 

"Glaciali frigore frigus tactus Et squamas tam in mari atque ab cristallum suum factum meum damno arcae refrigescant " Which loosely translates too "Ice cold cool touch, With the scales from the sea and the crystals of ice, I condemn this cabinet to cool" 

With the cabinet basically a refrigerator now I put all of my perishable items in it. So, the blood, eyes, and all of my plants, just so they'll stay fresh longer. 

Once I finished unloading everything I decided to cast a quick lock spell on both the cabinet and where I keep my powders, as well as my journals. With that done and out of the way I didn't really have anything else to do for the night but think. I'll perform the duplication spell in the morning, since Sixer doesn't need to journal until the end of the day. Then for the rest of the day I can examine and try to determine what's so magical about it. 

Fuck.

I just remembered about the statue. I definitely need to check on that to make sure Bill won't die. 

I run my hand through my hair. There is so much to do. However, staying up all night isn't going to help, so reluctantly I climb into my bed, entering my mindscape.
