Janus kept a secret. He kept a humongous secret that no one could ever no about, because if they did they would hate him forever. He had worked so hard to become a light side and if that was revealed he would go back to being an outcast. No one knew except Remus, and Remus has probably forgotten about it. Remus's mind was full of a bunch of stuff that it probably got mixed with something he thought of. 

What is this secret? Why would I ever tell you! I had just said that no one could know about this secret and that includes you my dear readers. So, you may keep guessing at what my terrible secret is, but I will not reveal it. Besides, who's to say I wouldn't just lie about what my secret was and make it so much better than it is. 

The secret was kept in his brain and his brain alone, so that no one could ever find it out. Well, his brain and a notebook that he used like a diary, just more personal so a journal. That is the difference between a journal and a diary in case you were unaware. Anyways, that's besides the point.

Back to what Janus was thinking about earlier, he was thinking about his secret. Thank goodness no one here could access his mind, or at least that's what he thought. Janus was walking downstairs to have breakfast with the other sides when he met Logan on the way down. "Oh, salutations, Janus." The logical side said as he greeted the deceitful side. 

"Terrible morning to you too, Logan." Janus continued to try and walk by Logan into where the kitchen and living room were, but Logan stuck his arm out and blocked him from passing. It is rather odd to be standing a step away from another person while not being allowed to go downstairs. 

Logan turned and made eye contact with Janus. "I need you to come with me." He said, his voice demanding leaving no room whatsoever for argument. So, Janus followed Logan upstairs into Logan's room. Logan walked into his room and over to the bookshelf where he grabbed a book and pulled it out. This caused the two bookshelves to move into the walls which reveals a doorway. Logan opened it and walked inside, gesturing for Janus to follow him, which he did. 

The two walked in and Logan snapped to shut the door and turn the lights on. Janus smelt something fishy here, like Logan was keeping something from him, but he figured that Logan brought him into this private room to tell him. Logan motioned for Janus to sit down in the single chair, which Janus did. "Okay, now that we are in private, it is time for me to figure this out."

Janus's expression went from slightly confused to extremely confused as Logan approached him. The logical side looked directly into his eyes and then disappeared. Jay looked at the place where Logan had stood only moments before. "Logan?" He said, semi-quietly. He was a little nervous considering he had just disappeared. Had something happened to the logical side? 

He went to get up from the chair, and did. There weren't any restraints locking him in there obviously, but when he went to open the door it wouldn't budge. Maybe it was jammed, was Janus's best hope. He tugged harder at the door as he tried to get it open, but no matter what he did it still wouldn't budge. 

"Logan!" He called again, trying desperately to try and find his way out of there. He didn't like being trapped in places because it reminded him of his past when he was in a bad place. The memories resurfaced and he tried to shove them aside, but they wouldn't leave. Oh wait, maybe he could sink out! Janus tried to sink out, but failed to do that as well. This wasn't write.
