IA/N: I am so sorry to anyone reading I know it's been two years. I lost inspiration and I got really busy with school. I'm going to try very hard to keep up with this better now. (I also have my own laptop now so if you want to message me and bug me about writing more feel free to do so.

Disclaimer: I don't own anything.

Tanith's POV

I took a deep breath. This was going to be difficult to explain. "William and I got-well to be honest- married." I glanced up to see their reaction. Neither blinked. "Okay I was expecting more of a reaction but okay. Anyways we got married, except it wasn't me." Val raised her eyebrow and Skulduggery tilted his head slightly. I sighed. This was going to be much harder to explain then I thought. "its like this imagine you're in a room and someone else is sleeping in the room. That's what it was like but in my head. She was in control of everything and She really thought she was me I mean-"

"Wait, she?" Skulduggery asked. Oh God he's asking questions about me. He'll want to kill us when he finds out the truth. Remmy screamed in my head causing a stabbing pain under my temple.

"Yes she." I sighed and rub my temple 'shut the hell up! I don't need the headache while I try and explain all of this to these guys.' I took a deep "breath before continuing to explain. 'In that analogy I'm the sleeping person. Remmy, the remant the possessed me, she had control over my body and she could remember all of my memories." Val interrupted me before I could continue.

"Okay but what happened to your face?" She asked. I brought my had up to my face and touched the bruises lightly. They weren't that bad but I knew without the magic mud the would take weeks to heal.

"Well when you're married to one of the bigger known assassins you tend to not only get recognized but you have enemies." Val gave me a sympathetic smile and waved for me to continue talking.

"Anyways so She fell in Love with William and they got married. I don't remember the being married or anything but Remmy has told me more times then I care to count it was okay at first but he was-well-um- he was kinda an ass. Apparently she did everything for him. She put food on the table and all he ever did was drink. She told me that when I cut him all those years a go I messed him up pretty bad and the worse that got the worse he got. With the drinking and he -uh- hit her. She didn't even know we where two spate people until I woke up, and I've only been woken up for the last year and a half."

"What woke you up?" Valkerie asked. She had grown so strong over the last 8 years. Her broad shoulders and strong arms made me want to smile knowing I helped her to start training. Her question gave me pause as I could feel my eyes welling with tears. I looked down at my hands on the table.

"I-um-well- I was pregnant and I, uh, had a miscaridge. Well Remmy was pregnant, and I guess William didn't want kids because he uh;" I made a slight pushing motion "Pushed me down the stairs 6 months pregnant." I didn't have to look up to feel their open-mouthed, wide-eyed-stares. "You don't have to stare" I said softly.

"You where?" Val asked shocked. I watched her hand dart out and cover one of mine. "I'm so sorry. I had no idea you had gone through that." she rubbed her thumb across my wrist. I smiled softly. Nothing had changed. The tears that had filled my eyes spilled and streamed down my cheeks before I could stop them. I tool my hand from her to wipe my eyes and looked up at her.

"I don't know why I'm crying. it's not like I ever wanted to have kids with him any ways. I mean he was the reason I lost the baby anyways." I sobbed and Val moved her chair around to sit next to me. 'damn it I can't cry in front of them. I didn't cry when I got nailed to a chair I'm sure as hell not going to cry now.' I wiped my tears and laughed a little. "That's almost okay though;" I said smiling. "because 6 months later I killed him and burned his retirement house down."

"What?" they both responded. The shock on both there faces made me want to laugh but I held it back. 'Talking about killing your husband while laughing will make you look crazy' I thought to my self. Yes well you spend most of your days talking to the voice in your head so are you really sane? the first time Remmy said something not panicked in days and of course it's both sarcastic and unhelpful.

"That's right. He's dead and his house has been burned down. I did that almost a year ago." I smiled a little and sighed again.

"If You did that a year ago why is this the first time we've seen you?" She asked.

"Well I have spent the last 11 months doing nothing but research over the remant. Every extraction that has been written about and even books written by people permanently joined with their spirt and in fact I wrote it all down." I patted my self down to realize my journal had been taken from me. "Where is it? I had a leather bound journal, where is it?" I panicked a little holding Val's hand tight.

"We took everything that wasn't clothes to be looked at." Val said softly as she pried her hand from my grip. "why is the notebook so important?"

"I've spent the last 11 months going out and doing research and I think I've found it, I think I found away to separate me from Remy."

While I can promise nothing I will try very hard to update this very soon.
