The Peculiarity of Jack and Jill

Prologue

Jack and Jill, a twin born and grew up in slumps.  Having the taste of brutal and bitter life in the slumps,  Jack and Jill decided to do everything in order to get out of that chaotic and disgusting place. 

Roam the streets and looked for their life savior. But fate was too cruel to them.  They met a man,  a mysterious one at that,  thinking he was someone sent from above to save them but it turns out,  the man was a man ascended from the depths of hell and drag them down with him.  A man from an illegal organization which was famous in the underground world. He trained them,  and threated them as puppets and weapons. Using their beauty, innocent and pure,  the two was able to tricked their enemies.

They kill in order to live. 

One day,  they were ordered to take down the head of an organization. It was million dollar job and they had no way to refuse. The job was very hard and deadly that they can feel their knees getting weaker and trembling.

However,  Jack and Jill was chased by that organization after successfully killing the head of it.  Jack and Jill ran as fast as they could. They run and run and run until they feel tires and out of breath.  Just when they are about to surrender, Jack and Jill decided to went up the hill and send signal flares for rescue.

Jack and Jill went up the hill and saw a well.  They ought to hide but Jack was shoot. It hit him before he knew what just happened.  Jack clutched his chest and reached for his sister's hand.  But before Jill could even hold him,  Jack tumbled down the hill in a heap.  The crown back on his head hit a rock and he broke his head.  Jill went screaming after her brother trying to catch him not knowing the small boulder of rock below her feet.  And so,  Jill went tumbling after.

*******

Jack and Jill went up the hill

To get a pail of water.

Jack fell down and hit his crown.

And Jill went tumbling after.

Deep asleep,  Jill suddenly dreamt of the song. 

(What an odd song). Jill thought in her dreams. 

Feeling the warm rays of the sun hitting her face,  Jill trembled her eyes open.  She looked for Jack who also opened his eyes slowly. 

Void of any emotions, their eyes were solemn and dark. 

"It seems like we escaped from Tanathos again" Jill smiled as she slowly spoke. 

Tanathos is the God of Death they were supposed to meet after their last mission.

"We are loved by gods" Jack coldly spoke.

Both looked at each others eyes and just as quick as that,  Jill and Jack shoved the blanket off of their body and froze in horror.

"What the hell"

Both exclaimed examining each other's strange and novel appearance. Jill touched Jack's cheek and Jack touched Jill's hair.

Hair was silver and eyes were crimson red.  Skin as pale as snow and well sculpted faces befitting of their ages.  Jack has a very friendly and charming face that you can't help but pinch it.  Jill,  on the other hand,  had a pure and sophisticated beauty that like those of a rose.

"Who are we? " Jack asked.

"Where are we?" Jill added. 

They both looked at each others eyes in horror.  But a sudden pain pricked thei head like it was filled with a very deadly acid.  It was so painful and hurts like hell.  They both clutched their heads and gasped for air. 

Memories flushed that it's making them dizzy.

"Jack"

"Jill"

They both exclaimed.

"Do we have the same thoughts? " Jill asked Jack and Jack nodded coldly. 

"So we died and transmigrated" the both of them solemnly said.

Both their gazes darkly landed on both their hands and feet.

Thin.

Frail.

And small.

It's definitely not theirs.

Their hands were full of callouses..

It's vigorous and strong that they can strangle a big man using their hands. 

"Miss Jill,  Sir Jack. The master wants to see you"

A maid in a black laced uniform suddenly barged in without knocking. Jill's eyes dimmed as she thought about this body's memories.  Sensing the surging bloodlust on Jill,  Jack held Jill's hand and sweetly smiled.

"Now now~"

Jill's lips drawn into a creepy smile,  Jack smiled wider getting what Jill wanted to relay.

(We just got here,  but I'm smelling blood)  Jack thought.

Jack and Jill shot up from their bed as they followed the maid leading them to the master. 

(Just when did the servant walks ahead of her master)  Jill coldly thought and darkly watched the maid's back.

For some reason,  the maid felt a sudden chill crawled all over her body.  As if she being followed by the god of death,  fear crept all over her body. She wanted to look back if which of the bastard twins daringly made her feel like this. However, as if her neck was being strangled by unknown force,  the maid can't bring herself to turn. Feeling suffocated,  the maid finally see the Master's study and so let the twins go before her.

The butler nodded to her indicating her to leave but before she could even leave,  her gaze landed towards the twins. Jack was smiling innocently while Jill was looking at her smiling..

Sinisterly.
