Return To Hill House

Disclaimers: I don't own the story or the characters, the plot line belongs to me, everything else belongs to Shirley Jackson and Jan De Bont.

Warnings: for this chapter, they're making a visit back to the house, for the week, before their mission, so from here the story starts heating up as he reflects on the night they barely survive the attack, before they return to the house and things change directions.

While the quartet have their counterparts joining in, but it's a clashing of the movie and real life from here as things change directions

Chapter 13: Return To Hill House And Living Arrangements

"As I said you should have read the fine print Jane, because you just dug yourself into a very deep hole here. Did you honestly think you could get away with lying to her when the truth is in fine print, being shown to millions of viewers on tv now and across the globe. I did that on purpose, public humiliation to get my side of the story out and those five people being there next to my counterpart, and what the movie doesn't show."

"The book does, I never had to hide anything from the sextet, Tom or even Jefferson, because they understand me in a way you can't. Jefferson happens to be Uncle Jared's cousin, he's a local of Concord. Mom made it clear you married Lou and you were getting disowned, and she heard your entire conversation with me regarding the apartment. You tried to kill me, you killed mom and then you try and murder my husband by pulling a switchblade on him. The mind games are done and with those words in mind."

"I don't care why you broke into my apartment earlier it's illegal, uh let's see here: attempted murder, murder, breaking and entering. DUI, breaking a binding contract in a will, attempted murder on two occasions. So with that there's no getting out of this, you just got yourself ten felonies in six hours. Jane, you're not going anywhere once this is arranged. As to that, I just got reunited with the members of mom's gang that know the most about that will, they're staying till the trial and with those words in mind."

"And with that Peter Hawthorne, his counterpart is Peter Walters, he's the town judge, while his counterpart is the counterpart medical doctor in Jared's department." she said and Hawthorne crossed his arms sternly as he looked at Richie and he swallowed hard. "We warned you of this and you go ahead and do it anyway, keep this up and the only life you're living is a life of crime, but we had our favorites in her family, and it was Ellie." he said sternly at that news.

"And with them, is David Walker, Andrew Jackson, Dillon Porter, Jason Bennett and Amelia Reilly are coming here for the trial, but for right now. I'm taking a month, off from work, to visit mom and dad's friends right now, so I can live in my house, and enjoy some time away from the hustle and bustle of city life." she said and Jane swallowed hard at that. "The house and the family fortune, on both sides of the family was the prize and I got the chance now."

"To see mom and dad finally, but they took the appearance of Saxon and Blakley when they made A Nightmare On Elm Street as same interactions now. Them, they're mom's inner circle in the Berkshires, but enough is enough, I've had enough of you walking all over us Jane and with that, come live with us. Jane, you have no idea how hard it is out there, I'm paying off your debts to the trade market and everything else right now, but once done."

"Lou is spending three years in rehab, and the entire five being admitted to the hospital, you're being placed as the hospice for a woman with mom's condition and Richie is being expelled from his private school. And as of now and your family are living the life of Cole Sear, you and Richie are going without Lou for five years as to why. My godfather is the police version of a three star, and my godmother and her husband are the caretakers of my house, but my friends and I are moving back and you're never seeing us again."

"There's no use fighting this, it's been arranged now. So don't even try it." She said sternly as Rick walked into the room with five members of the team. "Jack it's good to see you again." Jefferson said smiling and he shook his hand then gently. "This is Beth and Rick Dudley, the family caretakers of Hill House." She said and he shook their hands smiling. "Jeez, Liam Neeson, Catherine Zeta Jones, Owen Wilson, Lili Taylor."

"What on earth are you guys doing here?" Jefferson asked and they chuckled as Liam answered that. "Theo's agent contacted ours and we decided to come visit and arrived in time to over hear their conversation, with Jane here, regarding the house and needless to say, I was as furious as Dave was when she explained things to me." he said and he nodded. "So the entire storyline was true?" Damian asked and we shook our heads.

"No the last twenty minutes weren't actually Dame, truth is the two of us forgot our bonds of family with her, and she risked her life to save my son-in-law and their friend. Young man do me a favor and don't try that twice, would you please." Jack said with a bemused smile and we nodded to that. "The six of us are making a visit back to Berkenshire for just short of week. Aunt Beth, is he still in the door right now?" she asked her and they nodded to us smiling, as Luke said it for the six of us smiling

"Well that's a relief, the only intrusions we have are just the kids this weekend and it's going to be less hectic. Though we can just dispense with the formality and really enjoy ourselves for the next week this time." he said and the five of us nodded in agreement to that thought. "Yeah well don't start with the pillow fights this time and we can let the kids join us this time, as we go over that added truth." Eleanor said smiling and he chuckled as I looked at the table, knowing the trio followed us to the bank.

"Andy, what's the time frame, before your father tries to break out again?" I asked and a message wrote itself out then to us. "We have four months Dr. Marrow, so that's plenty of time, just don't fool around with the clavichord Aunt Mary and two: expect us to be hanging around you." Damian read out and we nodded in relief at the news then. "Thank you god, we've got eight months, before next Halloween, alright baby, be careful, I'm not risking it again." I heard and turned to see Jared Jefferson.

"Uncle Jared!" she said in delight, smiling and he pulled her into a hug smiling at her. "Hey baby good to see you too." he said tightening his arms around her smiling. "Hey Jared good to see you." I said to him and he smiled as he shook my hand. "Son, kids, it's good to see you too. Hey Rick, good to see you again, I'm the Doctor that helped Becky recover from that blow with the door. But I need to see the police records later." he said and Jefferson nodded to him as he pulled him into a brotherly hug, smiling.

"Alright don't tell me, he's your brother or cousin?" Luke asked and Jared nodded to him smiling as Rick explained that. "My father got transferred from Concord when we were Frederick's age, before he and Alicia left for Boston at the time, but prior to that he and I were like the duo in bonds when we were kids. Of my cousins I was closest to him, and we were like the boys on the tv show together." he said and the duo nodded, smiling.

"Nice plot twist, the Boston department chief was a local and the cousin of the chief practicioner and is from the town that brings a whole new meaning to the word paranormal outbreaks." Luke said and he chuckled. "Yes I know, and like her inner circle, I know about the will, I'm one of them, which is why Becky left the message I had the boys run over to you, and had left it sitting on my desk, she was telling me it was time to pull the plug." he said and Jared finished the remark firmly then as he looked at us

"But the will was and is non-negotiable regarding this, David, Mary, honey, I got the paperwork signed and you got a job at the psychiatric department of our hospital. We've got a paranormal department as well so that covers things now. And the three of you have jobs at the other three departments in town now. The art Museum, building industry and arts and cultures museum." Jared added looking from Theo, to Luke and Todd and the six of us nodded to that gently.

"I doubt the industry and museums were expecting that type of donation to get us settled there, Doctor." Theo said with a smile and they nodded with a chuckle. "Not quite dear, but the funds are not a problem, what they're offering for your expertise is five times what you're expecting. Though Becky set up a couple accounts for both you and the Watts now, and put a few million into the accounts as well, so that solves that." Mrs. Dudley said smiling and they nodded to that in amazement.

"Well till we build our own houses, we're living with the Marrows at the manor Mrs. Dudley and it's going to be a very long summer, so hopefully by the time Halloween rolls around it's going to be completely normal for the eight of us. Though I doubt whoever gets involved is having our added trouble." Luke said to her smiling gently and they nodded in agreement to that I looked at the quartet smiling then.

"That's four and let me guess the others are coming next week?" I asked and the quartet nodded to me smiling. "Yeah and with that young lady, you just crossed the point of no return, so take away her home, well turn about is fair play Jane Emily. Your mother is my best friend, so if you don't want to lose a third of the money you're being given to make up for this fact, I suggest you pay them back, right now." Jefferson said to her sternly.

"Who are you exactly?" She asked and he crossed his arms. "Don't get smart with me young lady, you're in enough trouble as it already right now. But I'm the head medical practicioner at the Concord General hospital, my name is Jared Jefferson, and I happen to be one of eight members of your 'aunt's' inner circle there in Concord. If you want proof to verify that everything Eleanor said is and was true, we're going to the hospital." he said to her sternly and Eleanor smiled at his idea as she got it.

"Rick here happens to be my cousin, Chief Richard Jefferson." he said and she paled as Jefferson finished his remark. "Yes and why do you suppose Becky contacted me first exactly hmm, well it's because I'm a local of the Berkenshires county of Concord and I, too, know about that will. Our inner circle was a gang when we were your age, it didn't matter we were in the early 40's and 50's, we weren't letting go."

"Becky told me about her ancestry, and we decided it didn't matter, the bloodline has shifted, but he's not part of it. If you thought you could get away with this and nearly killing her, than you're very wrong indeed, no matter what arguments your lawyer gives Peter. So there's only going to be one sentence and one sentence only for every charge you wracked up and that is the counter clause." he said with a stern growl in his tone.

"So you either pay them back or they're going to be the next ones to sue you, Jane Emily, and if you thought you could have pretended you're my god daughter and her husband it never would have worked. As to why I spent the entire month knowing their features on sight, so you can't get passed the fence." Mrs Dudley said with a stern growl then and she looked at the elderly trio standing there with stern looks on their faces then as she tried to act defiant then, but I knew she was scared of them.

"Who are you people exactly?" she asked and Benson crossed his arms. " I do believe she mentioned a godfather who was a cop a version of a three star general young lady. To which I happen to be and with those words Jane Emily, my name is Jack Benson, Chief Jack Benson, these two are Elizabeth and Richard Dudley. And Beth is right, you wouldn't have gotten passed the town perimeter leading towards the house."

"Because we know her, David James and the quartet on sight, as to how that could be, it's because she chose actors that looked like her and her friends on purpose, so we knew them automatically here as to that forging licenses would have just been another charge added to the list and it would get you thrown behind bars either way. You just landed yourselves with thirty charges in the side of seven years and now it's time to pay the bill, you lost everything but a 10th of what you deserve for your behavior in the will and with those words in mind."

"Beth and I are her godparents, everything she told you and Louis was true, but you just dug yourselves into such a deep hole you're going to need someone to either put a ladder in it or have someone toss you a rope now. Because that will is non negotiable whatsoever, we knew about it, as did every member of Becky's inner circle, and one of such is a judge. You're not a member of the Frederick Craine clan at all young lady."

"You're part of the Alice Craine descension, Eleanor is the sole heir to Frederick, and with that, she gets everything, the house, the money, everything, she's your cousin, nothing more. Your grandmother was a philanthropist as was your great uncle. And little Andy would have been had it not been for Hugh." Benson said and she swallowed as a message wrote itself out to her in a firm tone.

"Who's handwriting is that, exactly?" Fields asked and I explained that to him. "It's her grandmother, Caroline. When Rebecca chose the house for my side project, I didn't realize I'd chosen Alicia's bedroom for Eleanor, or that Fred was in the room I'd chosen for Theo, while Luke ended up with Andy's but those rooms, and mine are being marked as contaminated during this, because her's needs a lot of work."

"So just wait till we can get the room fixed and you'll see what the room looked like, and it's going to look like the manor in England, but everything you heard from Liam in the movie, that was in my explanation. But there's more to it, because we're interacting our entire conversation when we choose who's coming, but we get a trio of kids, it's going to be a full house in the house that night." I said to him and he nodded to that gently.

"Well so long as he's not trying to scare the heck out of us in the first fifteen minutes I think we're fine, but with twenty or thirty people in that house, and we're your exact look alikes I'm sure things are going to get hectic that first night, if it keeps up like that. Alix, like Mary, you better stay away from the harp, because that got us, both versions, ejected from the house early for a near loss of senses so leave the music instruments alone." Fields said to her and she nodded in agreement to that.

"It's that in your case, the fireplace in Luke's, and the statues and stairs in our cases, while having the ceiling caving in on Nell is even worse. So as to that, the booby traps are compiled to what you dealt with in the movie, but we're going to have a medical room set up in the house. And with the tank set up in the bathroom connecting both bedrooms together and our field medic is a rehab doctor in addition to being a full medical, but between him, Dave, Malcom and you guys, that's less trouble here."

"But with the fact you, Owen and Liam are constantly doing action movies, get ready this going to be the real thing here. So as to that, we're having this run in a dual catch way, to prevent someone from getting hurt and secondly and this time, with the fact he thinks he killed our mates, seeing two copies of all six of us is going to confuse the hell out of him. As to why he's never seen tv and doesn't understand the concept of movies."

"So with that, he's going to realize if we start pulling our entire conversation from the movie and you guys run the same conversation at dinner, we do the rest in the library and he's going to think he's seeing double, so that should help." Theo said to him and he started laughing at that. "Yeah well hearing the entire conversation between you after the confession she gave you was actually pretty funny though Theo."

"But I've never seen five totally different strangers get that playful and comfortable with each other when just meeting in one night, guys, ladies." he said, looking at the five of us smiling and we started laughing at that. "We weren't expecting that ourselves, but it was like we found our missing puzzle pieces and our parts fitted together like we were a puzzle, to the point that we set aside the awkwardness and completely relaxed."

"Once spending a month together, like we have, and living in the same house, you'll be the same way with your group like we are, we just have to prevent someone from getting hurt here. Though I don't doubt he's going to try and run the movie for real once all of us are together and our guests leave the manor." she said and he nodded as Eleanor smiled as she read out the message to Jane then.

"Jane listen to me carefully: everything you once thought to be true is no more, by treating your sister this way, you just unlocked a door you can't ever close up. I taught your grandmother the key sets of values needed, but your side of the clan squandered your half of the family Inheritence at the time, your family are gold diggers and as to that, I favored your uncle and his descendants."

"Your cousin was and is my favorite grand daughter, she's more like me than you think and it's why Hugh came after her when they were at the house. My baby grand daughter, she deserved happiness and finally gained it, but I've seen people like you. People who try to destroy the most honest, caring and courageous people in the world and yet they never loose their innocence at all."

"Why do you suppose the young man of your space action series turned into a power hungry maniac huh. Well it's because he developed a lush for power and greed and it turned him from a kind, caring individual and into a power hungry monster who became soulless and evil. But that's what greed and every sin does to you." Eleanor read out and she swallowed at that as she went further then.

"You want proof that you're not part Rebecca's bloodline, my grand daughter, go with Jared to the hospital and and get the Bloodtests ran, because my bloodline carries in it a source of paranormal powers, yours does not. Those powers give the blood a slight added change to the blood type, and only he who is pure of heart can take the mantle here young lady. To that which you are not, you are greedy and uncouth, and you're descension is from my twin."

"But my soul heir cub happens to be Eleanor, she's my prize heir and deserving a second chance and you nearly destroy her. Well mother, Alicia, Andrew, Rebecca, Robert and I are not letting that go. Jared, Johnathan, like her friends and Rudith here, we're also suing them for murder and attempted murder here. I nearly lose my sole heir, my baby girl, I'm not letting that go now. David take care of my baby, will you." Damian read and I nodded to his request smiling.

"Oh boy, he's really pissed off right now, when we met him he set himself at Rebecca's age, as did Alicia and Andy sounds like he's around fifty or sixty when he talks to us now." Luke said and we nodded in agreement. "Grandpa how long did you say the eight of you were sticking around, once I free Andy and his friends next?" she asked and a gentle tone wrote itself out as he answered her and I could clearly hear the love in it.

"I'm staying as long as you need me baby, in fact the six of us all decided on that, we left you too soon and you're still recovering from this right now. So with that in mind, Heavenly Father has granted us five years, so though the seven can't see us we're around to see you start your own family later on." he said and she smiled in delight as I answered that with a bemused smile on my face.

"Alright with that in mind here, guys if you're doing the books again get it under control, because we're not having things go crazy in the library when I'm telling our guests that story. Though repeated jolts in one night is going to get the entire group's attention, especially if he breaks out and goes for the wine bottle gunshot routine and the pounding on the walls again, though let me know if he's messed with the harp again."

"So I can prevent someone from nearly losing their eye this time, though he does this scene by scene in the movie till he caved in the ceiling on her and I'm really going to be pissed here. Because once was enough." I said and it wrote out the next message to me. "Don't worry David, I'm making sure if he does try that, I'm loosening the wire to prevent it from breaking this time, but this time keep your doors locked."

"Because Jack's remark regarding poltergeist is hitting the nail right on the head here. But if he does anything it's trying to get a stray cat or dog in the house, before going for the clown doll monster tactic under the bed before he goes for his version of the movie. But what you're looking at is 'Poltergeist' and 'The Haunting' rolled into one here." I read out and nodded in aggravation then.

"Great, if he's going scene by scene along with our version of that movie get ready for the repeated scares and if anyone is drinking, arrest the guy, before he flips out." Luke said to Jefferson and he nodded. "That's why Baker knocked him to the floor and wrestled the gun away from him once he got ready to shoot Ali in their version of 'The House On Haunted Hill'." he said and we nodded as I answered him.

"That gun was loaded with blanks, whoever brings live ammo into the house is having their equipment confiscated and locked up with a trio of twelve year olds in the house. I'm not risking one of the boys accidentally shooting themselves here." I told him and they nodded. "Alright I'm writing up a set of house rules regarding this, they disobey or get too drunk to think straight, arrest them Rick." Dudley said to him and he nodded.

"So normal police rules and house rules, my unit, and I'm bringing three men in addition to me and Tommy. Malcom it's you, David, Eleanor and Mary in the psychiatric department and your best medical expert and seven members of his team and that covers all three areas that need covering here. But rule one first and foremost is no one is having more than two glasses of alcohol, two, you see anyone with erratic behavior."

"And they're all showing the classic signs of drug abuse, report it to me and if they have a speedball reaction we're arresting them immediately here. Three each of us, the ones running this, are carrying radio's or walkie talkies on us, four is that with a trio of kids in the house, or more than trio, we're protecting them at all costs and five, watch out for any reaction indicating a nervous breakdown or worse." he said and we all nodded.

"Alright pack it up, we're leaving Thursday night and we're back on Wednesday Malcolm." I said and he nodded in agreement to that. "I'll talk to their teacher and ask for out of school attendance, so we can have them keep up with things, but Saturday and Sunday is a normal weekend." she said and he nodded gently as we exchanged looks.

After I said that, I thought it over and smiled. "Alright you said $500,000 for repair work Luke." I asked and he nodded as Eleanor smiled as she finished my sentence. "Yeah okay, we spend $5,000,000 for the weekend. And another ten for added goodies regarding house and hotel plans, and after dark, once the Dudleys leave for the night. The house has the looks of a mansion with everything a person our age or our parents age would like in luxury here, while the kids have a nice set up for the summer."

"And we use the rest then to pay for added expenses, so not only is there a lake by the house, but they got an indoor swimming pool, a basketball court and a tennis court on the propert and around the house. So activities here are swimming, fishing, sports, card and board games, if they're not into that they got the library and I'm buying one of the old radios they used to have in the forties so we can listen to the radio."

"So no tv, but we got other activities to do, and in the case of having thirty people in the house we can play baseball or football in the field by the house. Three months work till the summer starts and they got a very nice summer program at the house, and the house has a very nice set up too, so half from their time frame, half ours and we mix the styles, but everything they'd want to do we have it in the house regarding interests."

"Books for the bookworms, activities for the next age level up, swimming, fishing, sports to their liking, board games and several other things that should help with things now." she said and they nodded. "Can you face this now, it's been a year since we left?" Luke asked her, gripping her hand gently and she nodded to him. "Yeah I can, but seeing the damage to my room, I'm staying in the bathroom when we do it." she told him and he nodded to that gently as he ran his hand against her arm gently.

"I take it the way we had it in the movie was just what happened: he fell asleep on the job, you're trying to get the blood off you and you and Theo hear the scream and come running to investigate?" Liam asked and we nodded to answer him. "Yeah and we were trying to break the door down, because he slammed it on me while trying to scare her into a paralysis, she's claustrophobic here too to add on to that."

"When we finally got in there the fact that she was half conscious out of fear pissed me off at the time. With the fact I remembered they rigged the car. I knew if she tried to drive it, than it was going to kill her, and I decided I was killing the car by crashing the gate. The first blow didn't work, but that set of spikes in the fence landed on top of the car nailing the doors shut and David resorted to using the shovel to break the trunk window to get me out." he told him and Owen nodded firmly to the news.

"Uh huh, yeah I remember that alright, screw the stupid stunts no one is doing that twice, let alone the windows and I wasn't expecting the chair to get yanked out my grip either at the time." I said and he nodded. "Great, and yeah you're right, but if this is going scene by scene in the movie all night, I'm not leaving you girls alone this time. So with that Dave, if you're running a psyche evaluation with the added guests."

"I'm staying with the girls in the foyer, just stay clear of the fireplace, and when on the stairs stay away from the Griffin this time." Liam said and they nodded nodded in agreement. "Watch out for his painting as well Liam, that's also a death trap. You guys are so much like my version he's duplicating the scenes piece by piece here. But I'm the only who can face him and survive to tell the tale." she said and he nodded to her gently.

"Look, we'll come for the next week and then arrive like six weeks, before Halloween, so we can see this from your perspective, but what happened then is not happening this time." Owen said to her and she and gave him a hug and he tightened his arms around her smiling. "I think we got an easier time with this with at least eighteen people running around the house this weekend and with that in mind here."

"With you guys involved we got enough people to prevent a repeat performance, but that makes twelve, Rick, Tom and his family and the Keoughs along with our triage medical team here. But to free Andy and his friends, I have to do it again and this time, Lili, stay in the hall with the others, once I do this you guys get me in the medical room, alright." she said and we all nodded to the orders then.

"You better pack a bag for the week guys, the six of us are heading back and we're getting some work done on the house before May, this way we got enough to build some stuff into it, before you and our guests arrive." I added and he nodded to that. "Luke once we move in and get settled have your team come up and we can build several areas for recreation of the property as well, pool, baseball field, basketball court."

"And a smaller version of a golf course on the property so our guests, if they're from out of town have something that appeals to their tastes and the field around the house is a nice size too, so there's plenty of room and the kids. Though the locals never come closer than five miles during the day, during the night no further than nine. As to that we're not going to have that problem anymore, because the house had some work."

"But it's not total isolation here this time, so a sort of B&B, and if anyone wants to go to a movie and have a night out on the town, we're getting you a set of keys to the lock on the chains. Though during the summer and the kids, when it's raining, can play kickball in the house as well in the foyer." she said, finishing my sentence then and he nodded to that smiling gently as her god parents exchanged bemused smiles at this.

"Well that's one way to keep anyone from getting stir crazy, they can go for a night on the town, before returning to a more tranquil setting and being able to relax." Lili said and I nodded in agreement to that. "Yeah there's that, but preventing anyone from getting stir crazy means bringing a cellphone so you're not completely cut off from the outside world here. But to remind you guys, with you doing our acting for us in this situation, you know what to expect, so don't lose it." Theo said and she nodded to her.

"If what we dealt with that night in the movie is what we're expecting I'm not falling for it here, though some idiot actor that never did scary movies is asking to have the bejeesus scared out of them. And that's if we got a scream trilogy theme going on in that house in addition to our version of 'The Haunting' and a repeat performance of 'Clue' movie jokes here." Liam said to her and Eleanor chuckled. "You've done thirty movies in the side of twenty years and most of them are action films and dramas Liam."

"Was this your first taste to a horror/thriller though?" I asked and he nodded. "Yeah, and the reaction is enough, I'd prefer not having my comrades getting hurt or worse if what happened in the movie comes true for real. And with that, ladies, this time stay clear of the items he's likely to boobytrap and two nobody is taking in more than two glasses of wine, just to prevent another problem." he said and their sextet nodded to him gently and Dudley ended the conversation at that.

"So how much food do you think we're going to need exactly with that many people wondering around the house?" Dudley asked and I chuckled and said it. "$5,000 dollars worth, fortunately it's not a problem here, because there's still $450,000,000 left in our savings and checking account, so another $25,000,000 should fit the budget to fit the added goodies in the house, and we're adding a circuit breaker to the fence, for the basketball court and baseball, Football and golf courses and fields with it."

"The added five is for groceries, but we're creating a kids bar so they have something their own age level to drink. But with that many people in the house this weekend, expect dinner to be doubled or tripled at the current moment. Because Luke is a bottomless pit here and grabbed a slice of cake off the kitchen counter when we were going over this." I said and the elder members of our group started laughing at that.

"Alright laugh it up and watch it buddy, we're not going into this right now. Though at the moment the insomnia quit, so we're going to combine their thesis's together here this time. Hey guys just go with the gentle poltergeist intrusions and this time don't start with the movie jokes and sound effects this time please." he said and a frown appeared on the paper at that and we chuckled as she answered the remark.

"Alright it's only going to be for a couple days, but someone does another bottle explosion in the dining room of that type of explosion when we're in the room with you and you're not being played with like that, okay." she said and a smiley face appeared on the paper at that as she chuckled as Catherine and Liam both chuckled. "I take you mean us using them as the billiard balls in a normal way huh?" Catherine asked and she nodded as I answered with an amused smile on my face at the memory then.

"Yeah that's what we mean alright, they wanted us to play with them as if they were regular billiard balls and just as I was hitting one of the stripes Andy went flying out of the pocket, before zooming around his classmates before I ordered him back into it." I said and she chuckled at the remark then. "Mom said the doors responded by glowing gold when their keeper came back?" she asked and the quartet nodded to her.

"Yeah honey, once the demons on the door realize you're back they're going to respond by making the door glow, but whatever the kids told you is true, having the family bloodline in the house prevents the forces of evil from running amok here. Like the manor on the tv show Craine built that house in the middle of pentagram. I mean there's a lake in range of the house, that area is close to a set of steel mines, you're in the mountains and that's three." he said and she nodded as Luke covered his eyes."

"Your ability to control fire and that's four and finally the spiritual core and that's all five, that sums up all five. But the areas in this situation is the same, and this guy is as close to a demon as you can get or he's turned into..., Exar Kun and you're playing Luke's students to prevent him from gathering anymore followers or just taking another life here." he said and she nodded to that. "Yeah well I accepted he's my grandfather, but my true starting point is Federick and I'm good." she said and finished firmly then.

"And with that, if he expects me to let him run amok or attack my charges, my friends children, he'd better think again, because I'm not, I'm protecting those children with my life as of now." she said and they looked at her in bemusement. "Alright honey relax, we got eight months till he really tries that again, but you get too frustrated your blood pressure is going to sky rocket, now relax." Jared said to her gently and she nodded.

"Case of tension relief earlier and she's still worried about us right now after the last attack Jared." Todd said and they nodded to him. "Alright I'm putting you on a stronger prescription for your blood pressure pills here and two, once you reach the point you're about to fall asleep on the job, you're getting some rest this time. I'm still your doctor and if Redford is getting involved he's doing my decisions for me, regarding you."

"And this time, son, with the fact you learned that truth keep it together, I know you're claustrophobic, but pull it together." he said and Luke nodded. After that we ended the meeting between us at that then, she and I packed up half our stuff and equipment and several sets of clothes into boxes, loaded my van, I'd bought a full size van of the type that private schools used when the six of us were together, so that saved on gas at the time, as we started going over last minute plans then, before leaving that night.

"You better just load your stuff into our moving truck and I've got my car hooked up to the back of the truck by a anchor on the moving van guys." Eleanor said and they nodded. "Good point, girls go with David in the van we can drive our cars to the house and can unpack our stuff once we get there later." Todd said and Mary and Theo both nodded. "With it being a six hour drive we're leaving at seven in the morning tomorrow."

"But at least we can get settled and this time he's not going to be haunting us for six months." I said and they nodded in agreement to that. "But one full size moving van should be enough here, my car is hooked up to back of it, you guys bring your cars and the girls and I can drive the van ourselves while you're doing the moving van Dave." Eleanor said and I nodded in agreement then as I answered her.

"Yeah, and the van is going to be one of the full size version trailers so we bring one of those and bring half our stuff now and half later after the trial." Theo added to me and I nodded in agreement to that. "Yeah okay that works, we just pack a half of each of our apartments into the truck, our suitcases are loaded into the trunk of my van and I'll drive the truck this time, but I'm keeping a walkie Talkie on so we can talk to each other."

"Theo did you ever do restoration and cleaning of paintings before?" I asked and she nodded to me. "Yeah I did, but restoring his painting is going to take time right now. I mean that damage to the small one. I've seen damage like that before, but being an artist meant restoring and cleaning the paintings and I have my own kit and knowing how to do it here, but this type of damage takes time if it's like what happened."

"The red and his getting it off the painting is going to take time to fix while the smaller version of it Luke destroyed. With that one it's going to take a special kind of scissors and needle to fix that damage fortunately I can repair the damage, but once I do, nobody goes near the painting on the stair case this time, okay." she said and we nodded in agreement as I saw the type of key that was needed to unlock the doors and nodded.

"Alright mom mixed the keys from our style to a skeleton key here, the skeleton key is of the type they used in their time, but most of the doors are of our time frame here. So mom did a mixture of their style and ours here, and I think my room was the first, so once we lock that door. It's staying locked permanently after I face the memory of a before and after, once you repair the damage in there, Luke." she said and we nodded.

"Yeah well we broke several windows at the time back then and he tore the room apart upstairs and destroyed the staircase. So with that, I'm getting five guys and we're welding a metal pole a foot in width to the ceiling of the room, and bolting it to the floor. Before welding the stairs around it in the pattern we saw it when we were there. I'm also bolting two poles half of a foot in width under the platform you were on to the bottom of it, that takes care of support and the other staircase has that already too."

"That way the kids, if they want to go into the greenhouse, can just start playing in there and it looks like a normal family greenhouse and garden, just without the rain coming in, and several trees growing in there, a couple hammocks and a few other things if they want to take their reading material into the greenhouse." he said, drawing up the layout to his plans to fix the greenhouse then and I nodded, smiling, in agreement gently.

"Alright here's the ramp, that one section of the staircase that I was going up, before I jumped onto the one that you pulled me up onto was leading into the south wing of the house. This one leads into the wing your rooms were in, and that one is the primary one leading into the wing our rooms are going to be in, and we're all localized to the same wing too, as is the medical department and that's the entire line here."

"Fortunately, this time with you working, I'm making sure you get the rest you need now, but honey we can't have you working yourself into a collapse, Jane and Lou are out of your life it's time to really let go of that now. It's going to be okay, last year your life was in a state of unrest, and now you have everything you ever wanted, it's time to let go of their barbs and move on now." I said to her and pulled her into my arms and she buried her head into my shoulder gently as I rubbed her back softly then.

"Yeah I know fresh start finally, though my parents are gone, I have you guys now, I'll be okay. She's not my sister, just my cousin and she and her family are out of my life forever now." she said and I nodded to that. "Alright what time do you want us to come here, so we can all leave together exactly?" Malcolm asked and I thought it over. "7 a.m. And it's a six hour drive we can stop off for lunch and drive the rest of the way there."

"Kids, till we fix the stairs and ramp in the greenhouse stay out of there this weekend, because one of the sections is dangling by a thread and we're not risking it here, okay." I said and the triplets nodded to answer me then. "Just what type of damages are we looking at if that house is suffering the side effects of what we did exactly?" Owen asked and she sighed. "Everything you did during the the movie here comes into it."

"And like Luke said stay out of the fireplace Owen, because Hugh has it set to a certain time every day and and it opens to clear out the chimney. So if one of you is alone in there and you hear a sudden growling, get out or at least duck or you're going to it for real this time, boys." she said, looking from me and Luke, to him and Liam and we all nodded to the orders then as Liam said it for both them then, bemused.

"Well I'd rather see the damage to your room, if it's as bad as it was in the movie we got to make sure no one winds up getting the life scared out of them next." Liam said to her and she nodded to that. "The special effects nowadays are enough to scare you out of your wits here, but this may seem like what you dealt with, but it's still enough to scare the heck out of you." I said and he nodded in agreement to that remark.

"After seeing Poltergeist and seeing this one, after we finished working on it, I'm just saying this for both of us here, but any who don't take movies like this seriously. Than they'd better watch it, because the jolts are enough for someone to have a nervous breakdown, if they've never dealt with being an actor before." Eleanor said and he nodded. "I've been making movies for twenty five years and most of it is science fiction, dramas and a few crime comedies, but this one is like I'm dealing with my alter ego."

"And Darkman, before he got hurt." Liam said to her and she nodded. "Yeah and here's a question, was your character considered dark, simply because he went against the council's decision and did what he had to do?" Jamie asked him and he chuckled as he looked at her. "No, going by the way Lucas created my character at the time, he blended the Jedi code and another code together, but his name meant missionary of the force."

"He acted on being a normal human being, though he was a Jedi and evidently that code was meant to be completely humane. But that's why he nearly went to the darkside, in the 16th book of their series, because he'd fallen in love with his best friend. Anakin grew up outside the temple, but I'm not entirely sure what made him brush the darkside, since that one doesn't come out for two years at the current moment."

"But the Jedi order went extinct, because the Sith changed and evolved, the Jedi never changed at all. Change is evolution, and Yoda never allowed that change and that's the Jedi's undoing in the series after Palpatine finally gets to Anakin." he said and the triplets all nodded to that. "I'd hate to be the poor idiot who ticks you off if you were your character though, because that was amazing when you were fighting that Sithlord." Derek said to him and he chuckled at that as we smiled at that remark.

"I take it you learned fencing when you were at college, because the way you did that looks like you already knew how to fence?" Jason asked and he nodded. "I did, but I'm glad those lightsabers aren't real, otherwise you kids would be seeing these battles as a need to re-enact them here and break something in the living room. That is if Sam doesn't tell me otherwise, that if they keep this up they're making toy lightsabers next after this next one comes out." he said it him gently and we started laughing at that.

"Sam, as in Samuel L. Jackson?" she asked and he nodded. "Yeah, they chose him to carry on his contract as Mace Windu now, but this next film you're seeing his character in action with the lightsaber later. And his personality had the color twinge between red and blue, so he asked them to create a purple lightsaber. But his attitude is more by the book than mine is and was in my character, I follow my instincts, he goes by the book."

"Which, if my guess is correct here, is going to mean the destruction of the Jedi order, because he crosses the line between rational and grief and that leads directly to the darkside, giving Palpatine just cause to annihiliate the entire order after the climax hits. His problem is that with my character dead, he's got no one to talk things over with, because evidently my character was his best friend." he said and the trio nodded.

"Alright subject change guys. Just consider this a vacation from a movie career and you can live normally for a few weeks at the current moment. Though with what I saw on tv everyone who sees you associates you with the Phantom Menace now." I said and they all nodded with relief. "Once your box office hit, hits the theaters everyone who sees you, knows who you are and who you played, what I need is a few weeks break from that."

"And I'm still getting mobbed by the paparazzi here for these last three movies I've done regarding this. Though I can just act as my character where your children are concerned Malcolm. But for the current moment a week off in the mountains and a month off during Halloween is certainly welcome now for these next two trips laters." he told us and I nodded as the trio all nodded in agreement to his thoughts as Fields said it to him.

"Being an actor is one thing, but your private life, that's where living normally comes into it Liam, we're actors. But my counterpart had the same reaction after he did Twister, because he starred in Ferris Bueller's Day Off twelve years ago. And at the current moment he wants to be seen as himself and not Broderick's best friend, let alone the navigator to Paxton and Hunt's characters in the movie." he said to him and he nodded.

"I bet you weren't expecting to see a tornado that size in twister, because Tornadoes that big are unprecedented here at the current moment." Mary said and he chuckled. "I grew up in Tornado Alley after my family moved from Pasadena. But tornadoes this size only happen every thirty years, but an F-5 this size is enough of a shocker for people growing up in that alley." he said and she nodded as we exchanged looks at that.

"Yeah well get ready for this, because his anger does the same type of reaction that the spooks on The Sixth Sense do." Eleanor said to change the subject and they looked at her. "You're kidding?" Fields said and she shook her head. "Our speculations had been someone left the the window open, because it felt like someone left the air conditioning on in the middle of the early fall. It wasn't till he attacked me in the bedroom."

"That it hit me, every time he was pissed the temperature dropped below freezing, it's also why I was in shock, the nursery had been locked from the inside. And he was furious that despite everything he tried, none of us were getting out of the house. Till he finally put me into shock and David pulled the plug, which was his intention: end the investigation and we left by sunrise after my godmother and uncle showed up."

"But I knew if we did than those kids had to wait another year to be free at the time. And frankly just when I was making progress he shoved several wrenches into the gears and Lou was hoping that I never survived what Luke tried with the car, or the standoff." she said and the quintet nodded angrily at that. "Alright with us leaving at seven I think we'd better call it, so in the morning, meet us downstairs at 7a.m. sharp in the morning."

"And you better take anything of true value with you in case we have a break-in, though with the fact every true time we have is in the safe, that's coming with us along with the savings bond boxes and the will. Just to prevent Jane from attempting to rob us." I said and they nodded to that as we ended the meeting then between us. After getting into bed, I set my alarm for five and we fell asleep then as we settled into it.

After getting up at 5:30 the following morning, I heard a gentle thunk and looked at the table to see Sarah jumping to get my attention. "You want me to take you with us, so you're able to be with Andy and the others like this now, honey?" I asked and she started jumping up and down in answer to that and I nodded to her, smiling as she wrote out a gentle message to me. "You're better off creating five more copies of my billiard ball form, both stripes and solids now for the tables there though."

"This one is number six and with that, that's six tables each of whatever version of pool your guests like." she said and I nodded and chuckled at that. "Good point, they can choose between you and Rose when playing, that is if they choose not to use all of you and I'm creating a gold one next for the other five tables along with ours, but you guys, if you start going at it, you better get it under control." I said to her gently and she jumped once to answer me as Eleanor said it to her smiling.

"Alright, come on." Eleanor said, opening up her bag and she hopped into it, before her striped self did the same thing and they were looking out the edge of the bag then. "Alright I think that should do it, but is that everything that needs to be brought for a weeklong visit though honey?" I asked Eleanor and she nodded to me. "We'd better take the safe too, so in case she tries to rob us, then the savings bond boxes and the will."

"They're with us, and she can't get to the will, when it's with us, and Redford is running the psyche evaluation on her for what went on yesterday. As well as everything else that could possibly be worth enough for her to even try it, after what happened yesterday is out of her reach." she told me and I nodded as I grabbed it and set it on the bottom of the trolley and put the boxes on top of it and then wheeled it out the front door then.

"Yeah okay that should do it, in case someone tries to rob either of us no more than $80 in the wallet. The added amount is in an envelope that's in your purse, and my emergency kit. And I'm refilling my caches of sedatives and anesthetics in case someone really does lose it here." I said and she nodded in agreement. "Yeah well, with you being the one dealing with these guys, I'm loading that syringe and giving it to you in case it's a man that loses it completely here." she said and I nodded as I heard a voice answer it.

"Though once we do this, you better repack your emergency kit later, because if we have a case of speedballing or someone tries to drink themselves under the table we have to arrest them." I heard and turned to see Tom and his wife walking out the door of their apartment as she locked it as well and we both nodded to that. "You have everything that's worth taking you during this trip and next, because this building is likely to have a robbery while we're gone, so best to keep everything is worth something with you." I said to him, looking at him gently and they both nodded as his wife answered that.
