The Peculiarity of Jack and Jill

TPOJAJ: 4

Jack laid the plants he secretly took from the garden.  It was some medicinal herbs which can cleanse their wounds by bathing on it.  And also,  some disinfectant plants for their wounds. Having been in dangerous situations in their past lives,  the two of them learned the basics about which plants can help them and can be used as first aids. 

"This is myrtle which we can use as disinfectants and as cleanser for our wounds" Jack smiled. 

"Surprisingly,  they have this plant huh? " Jill commented taking the plants with her. 

"Yeah~ Is it luck? " Jack asked.

"Luck my ass" Jill snorted and went straight to the bathroom to prepare their baths.  Dividing the plants for her and jack,  Jill hid the leftovers for future uses. 

After having their baths,  Jill took the Armoracia which Jack also brought with him. This can be use to heal the wounds if frequently applied. 

"Where did you got this though" Jill asked Jack for she was sure that this plant can't be found inside the residence's garden.  It's a wild plant after all.

"Came across it when I once sneak outside the residence" Jack nonchalantly answered.

"You sneak? "

"Uhn there was a small hole bellow the bushes at the far east side of the residence" Jack answered.

"Did you stray far? " Worried,  Jill asked Jack.  Jack shook his head "Nope,  this was located near the hole. I'm guessing that knights used this often when they have wounds"

Jill stared at Jack for seconds. 

It was nighttime and Jill sneakily went out of hers and Jack's room to steal some food in the kitchen. But before anything else,  the two had already made preparations for this night's agenda. The mansion was heavily guarded with knights and thus it would be hard for a child to sneak inside the kitchen without getting caught. But not Jill of course. Stealing was the very first thing they learned from Mr. A and even from the slumps. 

Jill covered her face with a black clothing as she also wore black clothes from head to toe. In stealing,  black is a necessary color to wear especially at night. Black can be hardly seen in dark places,  it's a perfect camouflage for theives like her. 

Jill leaped out from the window not making any noise and landed on the grass .  Jack on the other hand went out from the doors and scouted the area before leaving the room.

Jill went towards the maid's headquarters and studied the place. According to her observation,  the maid who was incharged of their foods resides at the 3rd room in the right side of the quarter. Jill silently, like a cat,  went inside through the window. The window wasn't locked and so Jill was able to get inside. 

Getting inside,  Jill found the sleeping maid she came to visit.  A small smile crept from Jill's mouth. But that smile didn't reached her eyes.  Her eyes were deep and dark. 

As if the temperature around then dropped significantly, the maid who was deep asleep trembled and covered her body with the blanket, oblivious of Jill's presence beside her.  Jill looked at the maid smiling.  Her crimson blood eyes shone in the dark as her silver hair fluttered.  Like a mad and psychotic goddess who crawled up from the depths of hell,  Jill stood still. 

(Author's: If words are in this (Words..)  It's the thoughts of Jack and Jill which is open for them to hear each other. If the words are in this (Words..)  It's a closed/private thought, basically Jack and Jill can't hear each other's thoughts)

(I know you're itching to kill but don't forget our business) Jack thought for Jill to hear as he suddenly appeared beside Jill with the foods in his arms. 

Jill chuckled and looked at Jack. (I know)Jill thought openly for Jack to hear. 

Jill took the foods on Jack's arms and hid it under the maid's bed.  After doing their purpose, the twins silently left the room leaving nothing but eeire and cold air. 

(I'll be back for you,  b*tch)

Before going back to their rooms Jack and Jill ate the foods they left for themselves. The two climbed at the  tree located near the maids quarters and took their time to eat there. After eating to their heart's concent,  Jack and Jill jumped down and silently dig a shallow hole.  They threw the left overs in there and silently leave the place with smiles on their face.

Running and leaping in the middle of the night like nothing happened,  the twin smiled as the cold air slapped their faces.  Nothing feels colder than the smile plastered on their innocent faces. 

Jill took the rope she tied in her waist with an attached dagger on the tip,  Jill skilfully threw it above in the middle of the window grills.  The dagger, which she took from a sleeping night before,  was tied in the middle and it was perfectly blocked by the grills.  Making sure it was enough for her to use for climbing,  Jill climbed up the window silently. Leaving it unlocked before she sneak earlier, Jill was able to get inside without any hassle.  After her,  Jack climbed up and hurriedly hid the rope. Changing their clothes as fast they can and hiding the black ones somewhere no one can find,  beside them of course. 

After changing,  Jack made sure to lock the window before going to bed after Jill. 

"My hands are itchy,  Jack" Jill commented.  Jack smiled and took Jill's hand "So are mine.  Bear for it a little longer,  Jill~"

Jill smiled as she turned to see Jack.  "Of course" And Jack replied her with a smile.

(Yeah,  I'll do that Jack.  But that won't be long)  Jill thought privately.

(With me here,  you can do anything you want,  Jill) Jack thought.

The next thing they knew, everything went dark.
