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, and the next there's going to be a legal discussion for the project in Eleanor's POV. Gathering pieces of his memory put into the book he created before, during. And during the aftermath of Eleanor's confrontation. With Craine, as the rest of the truth gives a way to keep him out of court for a lawsuit, that Webster would have attempted were it not for Luke.

Before the story shidts to discussing things in their plans regarding the program they got planned, before it return's to Marrow's POV. So from here the story starts heating up as he does the story for the added members in group. Before they settle now as he reflects on the day after and his latest notes. Just before the trouble starts the next night when they barely survive the attack.

And before they return to the house a second time, after this 18 day long trip in the house, before the summer program. And Crane gets out of the doors for real now and things change directions from there. While the quartet have their counterparts joining in, but it's a clashing of the movie. And from real life to art imitating life from here as things change directions now for them.

But this story finishes the movie off as it goes to her views for the pieces that the trio didn't see after they went looking for her the first time. And leading into the first view of the true paranormal as her gift activates completely.

Chapter 20: Legal Documents And Dinner Preparations

"Did you ever read the fine, print young lady, 'The executor shall have the right to dispose of any and all property as he shall see fit.'. They stopped talking like by 1940 and that was my age group, young lady, we were born in the 40's. And you, by the late 60's early 70's, my generation knew the best way to create a will like this. But this was a morality test and one she put it to the boys, Malcolm and David, they both chose easily."

"They would put the apartment up for rent and put her stuff into storage, aside from the stuff she left to them and her heirs, the girls. You chose wrong and here's the penalty, Eleanor: she decided to see what the prize was going to be and in doing so. Got reunited with us as we got back together, and she found her friends and future husband." he said as he looked through the fence at her sternly as Caroline stepped forward then finally.

"Hello Jane, I did warn you at the time, consider it carefully, but you are not Frederick's bloodline, but my daughter's. But the colored billiard balls the story line and everything else she chose at the moment now. When she and David started loading up their apartment, when they bought a penthouse. And in Boston, when their friends started spending all their time there after work."

"Excluding you, you notice that unlike you, she was doing charity, unlike you, she decided to follow and value her mother's thoughts?" she asked her and she swallowed hard at that. "Yes Jane, you should have looked at the wording more closely, Eleanor saw what it was that I wanted her to see finally. But the bloody prints on the floor were me, my father was a total lunatic and killed my friends."

"Before he got me next as I was preparing to give my wife, Sarah, a promise ring, so we were to be betrothed, but he got me next. I was left haunting the house for 100 years until your mother locked him up in the doors 13 years ago. Before Eleanor had to do it again and she gained back several memories that faded away after Robert was killed in the explosion at the time back then."

"Memories of the good times she spent here with Elizabeth and Richard, Jack, memories of just enjoying the quiet times in seeing her friends up here. Memories of her training when Becky was still alive and with her was Robert, but most of all, memories of a trio of billiard balls, in pink, red and green. Following her around, until she came back 18 months ago and it start up again."

"Seeing my friends and me like that, she quickly gained the realization of things she forgot, she knew the story, but the key parts faded in her memories. Hearing my voice written in paper was one thing, but she needed to hear my voice for real, and working out how to do it. We decided on acting like the teenagers of last decade, chose the age group after Tony Benson, Jack's family."

"Tony Benson is Jack's grandson, as we started talking and acting like teenagers from this century now, the last 15 to 16 years. Before a certain tv show was created and watching it, that did it now. Becky bought the pool table, and with it two sets of billiard balls one the traditional set. And the other a snooker set, so we chose our favorite characters and their colors in ball form."

"As the picture of her with me dressed in the clothes and looks of the second leader of the team on the show did it. Choosing that way as a way to make an appearance, my friends followed suit and we did it again. Only this time they get to see us walking around and talking for real, but our counterparts. They're all from the first four seasons of that tv series, unlocking a door in her mind."

"The first 4.5 seasons of the show, when the youngest of the team joined after their enemy was defeated in the previous season. But during the course of the week my friends and I were doing an alternate reality to the show. Just after the last member of the original team came back, before the letter arrived. As the Marrows started acting like our parents and the duo our aunt and uncle."

"But a mixture of three things as the Marrows are psychiatrists, so The Haunting Of Hill House, combined with Power Rangers. And the third film of The Nightmare on Elm Street, she's a intern as a psychiatrist, he is one. My friends and I: the ten kids that they were trying to help and she risked a fatal injury. Just to free us from being trapped in solitary confinement, but that did it."

"Most of all, as the rest of the memories of when your mother had a billiard ball table and a traditional set came back. She hasn't been up here, since your father was killed in the explosion that was 15 years at the time now. But returning and seeing us, the doors in her mind started getting unlocked one by one in her memories finally now." Andy said as he stepped forward as he looked at her sternly.

"Hello Jane, nice to speak to you face to face, you remember the pool table now at their house, you saw her apartment. The game room she had a pool table, but on that pool table they had a few new addition to the traditional game. And before when David set his pool table up, David created two added billiard balls. Now, before creating a silver one, you'll notice that he created three new balls."

"For the table: a pink one, a silver one and a gold ball, in addition to the standard ones. Said standard: red, orange, blue, green, yellow, burgundy, purple and the single black ball, the eight. And with them the cue ball, but if you looked closer at that you would see something else else. In why he created the trio, before creating a cherry red ball, and a golden yellow with it now."

"Them and they're striped counterparts, as they alternated between the purple and pink, or between the black and silver, even the normal red and cherry red. You ever wonder why that was, why they had posters of the cast on the walls in the game room and bought the movies?" he asked and she nodded shaking. "If you paid closer attention to why, and why she mentioned a group of children."

"And then saw a copy of the picture of her with the new leader of the cast, and why his arm was across her shoulders when on the couch. That was not the cast at all, we: my friends and I been watching the tv show for seven years. So we decided that was the only way for us to get around, assume their identities. David and Eleanor realized this by the message in the picture I sent her."

"And got the message, the money from the volunteer status allowed them to buy a pool table and then buy both sets of balls. Before he created the four new color editions in the balls. A air hockey table, so he could create a billiard versions to a hockey rink for us in case we ever came to visit. And the day the tests results came back he set it up as a result and as a result giving me now."

"Me and my friends a chance to interact with them, they knew it was us, once we came back to Boston to visit them. We possessed the one thing that made them recognize us on sight every time. And said was the pool table and the billiard game balls, I was the one in green ink, me the green ball." Andy said as he looked at the house and his color ball rolled out the door and sat next to him.

And she looked at him in shock as she got it then quickly at that. "That's your billiard ball form, but you look like my son's favorite ranger?!" she asked in shock, shaking and he nodded firmly. "That's right, Eleanor probably said this when you were at her house, but it's the Haunting Of Hill House meets the Power Rangers. We just jumped over the episode focused on the break up letter, alternate reality."

"Though it looks like I chose my power ranger's double to make an appearance, he is what I really looked like when alive. Dad killed me and my gang, my team, my family, because I was close to giving my girlfriend a promise ring." he said and the 11 walked out and with them, their power ranger colors in billiard ball form. "Of the two of you, or rather three at the time now, I played favorites in you."

"Ellie is and was my baby, she forgot, but when she came to visit, I followed her around, like that." he said as his billiard ball moved to me and leaned sideways against my foot, like he was leaning his head against my shoulder. "All that time, the two new additions to their traditional set, pink and gold. The fact she kept an image of the sextet, in both versions on the wall as a poster, in the billiard room."

"When you came by their apartment at the time, as you saw what they were working on, a fast shot to insure that what happened was never a dream. I decided that the best way to do that was by getting them a copy of the movie. The poster and with it the first half of the tv show when my double gained his own theme song." he passed the poster to her and she looked at it in shock then.

"Putting that on the wall in the tv/game room, they decided to customize the billiard table, before I left my signature with her. And then a picture of her and me when I'm in human form." he said and I smiled as I looked at the image of his double with me, as we did that image of him on the couch with me. "Though it looked like they, as adults, gained an interest in a kid to preteen's tv show there."

"At their apartment, the tv show and movies, it was all us, the actors and actresses were what we looked like when alive at the time. So we chose the only way we could show you what we looked like: by assuming the identities. And of the cast members we like the most and with the right make up, hair dye and contacts, we could now walk around as though we are the invisble man."

"Your parents, grandmother, great grandmother and Fred did the same thing, only instead of the cast, they chose a way you could identify them. If you saw Little Women, then you'll recognize them on sight right now." he said as Frederick and Alicia showed themselves and she paled in shock. "Christian Bale, Winona Ryder, they're your look alikes?!" she said in shock and the duo nodded to her sternly then.

"Yes that's right young lady, but as a result Andrew chose the star of the preteen action tv show, before the 11 followed suit just behind him. We gave a way for your cousin to see us as we were when alive. But we're not the only ones, baby, David, Robert." he said and mom, dad and grandpa stepped forward and she backed up in shock. "Mom, dad, but how." she said in shock then at seeing them.

"Like Fred and Andy said, get the right hair dye, make up and contacts and you can mimic the invisible man. But your uncle is directly bang on, you should have paid attention, that was question, not a suggestion. I don't know where we went wrong with you, but you did this to yourselves. All Malcolm, Theo, Todd and Luke had to do was show up for it." Mom said and Jack took over at that then.

"Young lady, all the information we needed to prosecute your husband for attempted murder and psychological damage toward my god daughter. Everything was written out to me, Peter and Jared, right here, it was in his book. From the second that we realized our baby girl returned to us." Jack said and then pulled the book out. "What what is is that exactly?" Jane asked him shaking and Dave crossed his arms at the question firmly.

"This is the expanded version to the movie, the one given to us and every person in town, your mother, she is the most wellknown psychiatrist and parapsychologist in town. But did you honestly think we didn't know at the time after she told us right now, as I pulled her out of anesthesia and she told me and Davis everything, David can read her mind, so that helps too now." Jared said and took it from him and read it out to her...

Book Self Memory Flashback-Marrow's POV:

After separating we watched for any more traps he was likely to spring on us, till we stoped finally. "Jesus Christ, alright she said leave, but go where exactly?" Theo asked me and I thought it over, because we took another room and ended up at the stairs by the dining room then. "At this rate I don't think it matters, she knows more than we do, but for whatever reason I'm not sure exactly." I told her and we stopped finally then.

Just to catch our breath. 'Guys where the heck are you?..., wait a second, no it can't be, 'C' Caroline, my necklace, mom you left it to me, why exactly?' I heard and stopped to focus and I checked behind us, I didn't see her. "God where is she." Theo asked and I thought it over. "She was following us and then we get separated. That message on the doors." I said and she looked at me as she answered me then.

"You don't think..." she started to say and I nodded, before I could answer I heard my soulmate's voice with a tone that meant she reached a single choice. 'I'm her grand daughter like I thought, but if I'm seeing all of this and he targeted me. And on purpose and those kids need me to free them from him. It means I'm..., oh god he's my grandfather, I thought it started with Frederick, why didn't you tell me.'

'Welcome Home Eleanor, no it can't be, the family was from here, the house belongs to me, no that's not it, it can't be it. The photo album, he was standing behind her, and they were dressed in wedding clothes and he's my..., no, no it can't be. He's not, he couldn't be, the family line, 'Welcome Home Eleanor', what does that mean unless..., oh no, that's not it can't be, alright think, focus.'

"Go down the line, starting point, mom's lessons, the stories, alright focus on that now .' I heard as her tone shifted then. 'The stories, alright, me, you, grandpa, Suzanne, Frederick and finally..., Caroline, and I'm descended from. From..., Craine is my great, great, great grandfather, no that can't be, please. Mom tell me that's a lie, please, damn it mom, when were you going to tell me that?!'

"We lived off a mild income, the classes you wanted me to take, the triple bypass, I had to drop out of college, and it's because of this. So I could destroy his soul finally and you didn't tell me the truth till now. Craine is my great grandfather, mother why didn't you tell me this before? Well if there is only one chance left to ensure they survive this it means I've got to deal with him."

' One chance and where it's a repeater or not.' I heard her think as her tone shifted then. 'They went down that hall, where the hell are they?' I heard her think and then I heard a tone that began a feeling of dread in my heart as she said the next thing mentally. 'Damn it, there's only one option left, where are they, alright no other choice if it means we make it out of this in one piece I have to risk it.'

'I'm a Craine, alright, just as a Concord Craine and he's my starting point, I have no choice now. And it's the only option left, alright he's just made his move on me to scare me out of the house before I figured this out, and it's because he's Vader and Palpatine rolled into one, alright the endgame has begun here. Now you asshole, you're not getting near my mate or friends, or Andy again.'

'You're toast!' I heard as I heard a tone of resignation in her voice as she said the next statement. 'I'm a Craine like I always knew, but..., no, I can't take this, not now when I just lost you mom..., it's not just you. But my seeing everything that the others can't, he targets me, nearly kills a man I think of. And love as a brother and now this, no, no, the triple bypass, why she retired it was you, you bastard!'

'Damn you Craine, you caused that heart attack, you, you bastard, you murdered her, you killed my mother. Mom, two months, why didn't you tell me, I didn't want the truth this way, I need it from you. Come back, please, I need you.' I heard and then a mental sob shot through the link, before it shifted. 'In order to save my friends I've got to stop him and do it in one way..., aw, God my side."

'Yes alright in order to finish this, I got to do whatever you did unless...' I heard as I heard a tone loaded with overwhelmed pain and emotional agony as I heard her tone shift. 'Wait, the message on the doors, the doors are the one thing that can hold him the trio on the doors. That's it isn't it, you did that and it caused the heart attack and surgery at the time, that's the only option left here.'

"I'm running out of time, I do this now, and it ends with me, but survive this and face it the memories ' I heard her add, as I felt a gentle brush of pain from somewhere else in her thoughts. And as her breathing and tone started getting more labored as she tried to focus. 'No stay awake, I got to focus here.' I heard her think as I tried to figure out where she was as he thoughts shifted directions then.

'So the Haunting Version of the Empire Strikes Back, I'm injured and suddenly you choose now to drop the news, grandma. But my brother is unconscious, I'm hurt and my friends and husband are somewhere else in the house. And I'm facing a ghost who is my version of Vader or worse Palpatine, Aw... aw god!' I heard her think as the sudden jolts of pains in her injury then started hitting me.

'Alright focus, the classes, moms stories, my seeing the paranormal, the fact I can see what the others can't, what is this supposed to mean..., Caroline who are to you to me exactly, what is going on?' she asked and I heard a gentle tone answer. 'Darling, as you guessed it, I'm your great grandmother, but those abilities you have are from me, your true starting point is my son."

"Frederick to Suzanne, to William to your mother and you, he's your grandfather. Look at it it carefully, were it not for the fact someone caught it too soon now. My darling listen to me, your uncle was the one one who wanted you to free him. But it happened after your grandfather left and took the family to Boston.' I heard and I heard an answering response to that loaded with violent denial.

'Your son is my great grandfather, but he was sired by..., no that's not it please, Craine is my great great grandfather. But no I never wanted this, if this is part of why we left Concord I'm fine with that. But I can't take the fact he's my..., I didn't want the truth this way I wanted it from my mother. Please, tell me that's a lie please, if he's my starting point I don't want to be a Craine anymore.'

"I never wanted this: to know he's who killed mom, it was when I was close to taking up my position here at the house if she survived this. She could have told me herself.' I heard and the gentle tone answer her denial at that news then firmly. 'Darling I understand this, but the only chance of survival for you and the others is your facing off with him, you know what to do, but if you don't do it."

"Deal with him your friends are going to be heart broken when they realize what happened, you're going to need medical attention. Listen to me for you the only chance to recover is if they find those injuries after you're done with him. Is you're going to be able to heal when they take you the hospital at dawn.' I heard and at that I tried to focus on my mate as I heard her thinking things over then.

'Baby where are you?' I thought to her as the pain of whatever was wrong started getting worse then. 'Baby what's wrong what it is, tell me where you are, come on, I know you can hear me, where are you in the house, come on.' I thought gently to her at that, knowing this was close to possible suicide and as this was the reason. Now, Theo wanted her to leave and before this decision was made now as she thought over this then.

'Five hours, it's been five hours since the shock wore off, and I'm running out of time here. Alright mom, grandma, mom, tell me in what do I have to do, because the added symptoms are making it harder to concentrate. And I'm running out of time, I do it and it's going to destroy him, with the other injuries I have, mom, every story you told was a partial truth at the time wasn't it."

"And this now this is the part you left out of it, right, he was it, and he's why, why didn't you tell me? So the heart attack was because of him, as were the electives too. The stories, mother, mom, why didn't you ever tell me this before, was this why our family moved to Boston, to get away from him. He turned into a monster, this is what you didn't want me knowing or remembering.'

"Grandfather moved away from Concord and it's because of Craine and his maniacal tendencies, he's a..., Luke was right, he's a monster. But I got to finish what you and Caroline started is that it, that's what the electives were for. That's what put you in the hospital for a triple bypass as well to, he's what caused it, I'm a thirty two years old you now, I just saved my brother now.'

'And if he's after me I'm the one who has to finish what you started?' I heard her think to herself. 'Honey whatever you're thinking here don't try it, where are you?' I thought to her quickly as I heard her tone shift as whatever she learned. It was effecting her then, knowing if this meant what I thought she just hit the wall. And needed a few weeks in therapy for it and I'd just been selected as her psychiatrist right then to heal.

As I listened carefully to her mental voice I heard her tone taking on the tone I remembered in Hamil's voice in the movie and I realized what was happening then. 'If it takes making sure he's destroyed I'm finishing what you and grandma started mom, this is ending with me now. Vader, he's my version of Darth Vader, and I'm the only who can end this now, that's why you gave me the necklace."

'So I can take up the mantle and finish what you started mother.' She sighed as she said the final remark. 'Your stories, that's what happened isn't it, you came here for whatever funds needed. That was it wasn't it, you got into a face off with him and it nearly kills you eleven years ago. This is why I'm your favorite, I'm you in everything that makes up our newly born and created name.'

'I'm blood, but she was taking her resentment out on me and it's because..., she's not really my sister, that's it isn't it. I'm an only child, she's not family, that's the reason for the resentment. But you favored me, because you trained me, because I'm a blood relative to the Craine clan, she was adopted. And I'm your daughter, your real daughter, I've got the ability that you had.'

'I get it mom, it's like the movies it runs in the family, but the ones who have that ability are the ones who wind up with the necklace, if this means making sure those children are free I'm doing it.' she said, before I heard a voice I didn't recognize after her statement. 'Baby listen to me, I didn't tell you, because you weren't ready to know till now, that necklace was a family heirloom.'

'It was passed from mother to daughtwr for yeard in our family, passed from one generation to the next, you know what must be done to save your friends now and you're running out of time here as well. Like your age groups favorite movie series, there's good parts that come from learning the truth. You found your way back to your godparents and the other, the project now."

"Malcolm knew about who you really are and there's bad bits mixed in as well, but the team, your friends, Dana, Malcolm they never cared about that. To them all families had bad sheep, but this is akin to that portion of Starwars. And for Leia. her twin is your male counterpart, only you can end him now.. It's okay honey, I understand that, but this what I was getting ready to tell you now."

'Every family history has a dark secret that must be dealt this, and he's ours, I took that news and made it my own and too him out once now. Listen to me, ever family has a seed you found our but the house is owned by you now. And with that, you're a thirty two year old me, you'll survive this, just don't give up. Baby, Jane is one thing I know that, but don't let this take you down.'

'No sweetheart don't say it, just listen to me, I put you in those classes and trained you myself. Just so you could be ready for the burden your abilities give off when you were ready. I played favorites, because you were my baby, only you could handle this and live to tell about it. As only a true member member of the Craine clan can do what you're about to and survive to tell about it.'

'I understand that everything that's been going on the last three months is hard on you, but you can't let it take you down. As you just found your happiness, finally, don't let learning this ruin that baby.' I heard a woman's voice say and then heard her answer that, as her mental tone loaded with pain and anguish then. And as she said it, and I knew this had to be from the last eleven years and three months then.

'How can I mom, things only just got worse since you passed, though I had Malcolm and Dana, the quartet. It's been fight after fight, I know what the will means, but this was my one chance to save the apartment. Now I don't even have tha, they forced me out of the apartment. I have no way to control these abilities and without your training me, I can't control it, and to top it off.'

'I get the biggest bombshell of all and its we're the descendants of a megalomaniac with a Darth Vader and Fred Krueger like complex. And my namesake is his wife, and he nearly kills my brother and mate. And twice tonight, and now this, I finished off the darkest portions of the legends. But he targets me now, as if that's not enough, I have nothing left to go back to."

'I mean if she's not really a relative than it means you're my only family left now and you're gone, whatever I do now. So they're going to think this is just a way to escape the amount of pain I'm in from learning everything now. This is the reason for the triple bypass wasn't it, he hurt you in the exact same way. He does me and it takes the caretakers to get you to the hospital the next day."

'Just so you can survive and said caretakers are really friends of the family as well and with that. They know the whole story and whoever is in your inner circle of friends here do as well. Yeah I know what to do alright, that's what caused the bypass isn't it, you did what I'm about to do. And it nearly kills you in the process, the Dudleys are our family caretakers of the house.'

'They realize what is going on and they're going to know and realize who I am. Alright there's only one shot left here, but there's no other way around it.' I heard her think with a sigh as the next remark sent chills into my heart as it was directed at me next. 'Honey tell me where you are here, come on.' I thought again to her, as I felt her thought, as whatever was happening to her physically just hit her then.

'Mom how do I explain this, he's going to see these injuries as domestic abuse, by..., that's it then. I already told the guys and Uncle Jack this yesterday when he came to the house to look into things. So they see these and it's getting 'him' arrested later, because that's in my records, they see it. And they, Lou and Jane, they're screwed, but this is enough of a reason for them to be worried.'

"After my abilities get out of control here, especially with you gone.' she thought and I heard an answering remark to that, the tone gentle as it answered her. 'Baby, I know you miss me, but you can't give up, this was the test. Now that needed to find happiness now, don't quit on them and don't quit on your godparents. You're my heir, finish what I started baby, and end this once and for all.'

"As for things in the future, once you're ready to return then you can see what being my daughter entitled you to. As it's because it's the reason I was up here at the time, in order to ensure you had the money. That I came for the finances needed, but it was the face off that put me in surgery. Baby, it maybe him, but our true starting point is your grandfather Frederick, he's our starting point."

"So don't let this push you into giving up, you have everything you want now. You remember what I used to say, the part we act on in us is who we really are, use that now and face off against our demon in the family.' the voice said and I heard her answer that. "I'm just relieved I can hear the way you used to be mom, I miss you so much." I heard and heard the voice answer her gently at that remark.

'I miss you too baby, listen to me, you're able to speak and see me, because you've got the gift, it enables you to speak to the other side. Tonight is your one chance to put him back in the doors where he belongs. It's going to take time, but I can teach you to get your gift back under control, but first you must deal with him.' she said to her and I heard her answer that with a slight firm tone of voice.

"What are the chances of surviving this with a possible added injury or two connected to it?" she asked and I heard a gentle voice explained it. "They catch it now extremely high baby, the damn car was a trap, he did that on purpose, they gave you the car as a damn trap, add that to the list of charges given to Jack and Peter baby. Listen to me carefully, with David hearing everything.'

'That's going on through you, he's going to know this wasn't on purpose, but Louis is getting his head taken off. When the guys and your mate hear the truth, I'm getting the others a message, just finish what I started here. Put as much anger into your thoughts at Louis and your sister as possible. And once they see why, I'm getting Jared to check your records." I heard at her remark then gently.

And then I felt my heart turn to ice as her thoughts went firm as they shifted to me then as her tone shifted to gentle resignation and love towards me. 'I'm sorry honey it's the only way, I'm not losing you guys, it's the only shot left now.' I heard and in her voice I heard a tone of giving up then and felt my heart fall as I realized where she was then, "Come on, she's in the foyer." I said and we quickly charged in there then.

"Nell, Nell what happened?" Theo said to get her attention then as I saw the relief on her face. 'Thank god, alright times up here you asshole.' I heard her think as I quickly asked the next question. "Eleanor, are you alright?" I asked and just as she was answering he gave a menacing growl and she shouted at him as she put herself in front of us. "No! You leave them alone, I not afraid anymore I'm not afraid of you."

"The children need me and I'm going to set them free." she said and I looked at her quickly at that as she went further then. "Even in death you still wouldn't let them go." she said and I looked at her. 'Honey what are you doing?' I thought as he growled angrily and Theo and I backed up slightly as we moved closer to the wall. "Move away, Eleanor move away." I said over the noise, before I heard, hearing in her voice.

And a tone I'd never heard before from her. "I'm going to stop you now." she said, before I realized what she was saying as I quickly shouted it out. 'No, no I know what you're thinking here, don't try it Eleanor!' I thought as I shouted at her over the noise. "Eleanor don't!" I said as the wind turned into a hurricane blast. "Don't do it, Eleanor, he's going to kill you." I shouted over the noise to her then quickly at that.

''Baby please, don't do it, you can't leave me now!' I thought desperately then as I watched her square off with him as she carefuly backed up as he moved closer to her. "It's not about them, it's about family, it's always been about family, it's about Caroline, and the children from the mills, family. Well I'm family grandpa, and I've come home." she said firmly as she backed up every time he closed in on her till she was standing.

And directly in front of the doors as the wind blasted us into the wall. 'Baby, get him directly in front of the doors, that's the only way. Hugh, times up she's finishing what I started, you bastard. She's a thirty two year old me and this is ending right now. Honey if they get your heart beating immediately you will be able to heal from this.' I heard again to her as he snarled at her remark as he answered her.

"No, you're not!" he said snarling in denial and I knew this was why he tried to force us out of the house, as I heard a voice through the link as she answered his remark. 'Hugh, there is no repeat from this day forward till she returns to the house. And you're winding up back in the doors and its staying that way for eternity. My darling, finish what your mother and I set out to do, end this once and for all.'

'Hugh, there is no chance of victory here, my grand daughter is the one chosen to keep your soul in hell and to free those children you've been holding hostage. Baby do what must be done end this now.' I heard another voice add on to the first as he responded to her remark. 'You lost Hugh, she gets this group and Andy and you're stuck in those doors for all eternity now.' the voice snapped at him sternly.

'Get her heart beating again, if this situation is what caused the triple bypass her mother had..., dear god no. No don't try it, Eleanor don't try it, I'm not losing you, don't try it.' I thought frantically as he responded to her remark then. 'What the hell, we've been judged innocent, he's about to be judged..., that's her plan, getting him in front of the doors, that's what they meant yesterday."

'That she needs to get him in front of the doors, weighing of the hearts, the doors were hexed to bring those demons in the doors to life. No, no don't do it, that's going to kill you, get away from the doors.' I thought as she finished it with the next sentence as the glowed bronze then and then through the noise and her I heard it. 'Master what do you wish of us?' I heard a voice say and then heard her answer.

'It's time to put your escaped victim where he belongs now, I guessed in what you were created for. So I'm you're keeper is that it, my mother was your previous one and I'm you're latest?' she asked and looked at the demons carefully I saw one move. 'Yes master that's right, you're our keeper and only a member of the bloodline of our original owner can tell us what is we have to do.'

"But with your mother gone, you're our new keeper now, this soul was judged to spend an eternity suffering from sexual abuse. when your mother got him in front of the doors eleven years ago, he escaped 4 years ago. but there's still eighty children that need to be freed. If you're here to do it again let us have the word once he's directly in front of the doors.' it said to her gently at that.

And I felt my heart turn over at that. "There was a supposed legend that Rodin had a wizard put a spell on a set of doors that were meant to catch cruel and evil souls. The doors acted as a reverse of what the condemned did when they were alive, so say they were like Jack the Ripper, the demons. They turned into a homicidal maniacs and it turned into a never ending cycle of dismemberment."

'For rapists, the demons turned the tables on him and he was subjected to sexual harassment and worse in his after life. And so on, but to judge these things the soul had to stand directly in front of them. The person owning the doors were never named off, but he put a message on those doors. 'All ye who stand before these doors shall be judged', so any person wanting judgement.'

'And any who came into range of them were judged by God and heaven as a pure soul, like we did the day we arrived now. As a result of testing it last night, and the day we got here and we were judged innocent. And as for the children, those souls are waiting to be released once the true owner. And of the house and the keeper of the doors arrived, it ran in the family bloodline now.'

'The doors act like the weighing of the feather ceremony in the ancient Egyptian culture, if the person was completely pure of heart. And never broke the laws their souls could move on to the afterlife without repercussions. But if they didn't their souls got eaten by Ammit, which is where this comes into it. As a result now and reason being it was because it's a purgatory now.'

'If the victim, or victims, were pure of heart than once in death they were judged innocent and free to return to heaven. But if the soul was a total monster, by that I mean men like Krueger, or some of the other homicides. They talk about on Tv, than once he floats in front of it the door comes to life. And the demons judge him guilty and to an eternity spent in hell and drag him into it.'

'To spend the rest of his days dealing with being in eternal damnation and whatever he did as the demons do to him. In whatever he did to his chosen victims when he was still alive at the time back then.' I heard her voice echo as I then heard her thoughts coming pouring through the link then with an anger. That I hadn't heard from her since we met and they were pointed directly at the Websters.

'Well Jane you wanted the money and everything else, and you have it, there's no going back now here. You destroyed everything and I know you wanted this, well if it takes protecting my friends. That you're the ones getting cooked when this gets to the authorities later, because my friends. And the cops and the medical doctors here in Concord are going to classify this now to him.'

'Now in their eyes and Boston's as murder/suicide and you're the ones who caused this, this lands on his being cleared of charges. And you can't get him charged, for this, it's going to the town government before hitting the Supreme Court. David is not getting charged here for what I'm doing you two, it's over, you've taken enough from me and you're not taking him from me as well."

"And as long as you live without compassion, I'm being selfless and you're the one who's going to jail when the aftermath begins Lou, when I do this. Especially when you're the one who doesn't care about anything but money, and if you're the one who killed mom, you're going to jail. I mean it, Lou and this is part of that you stupid bastard, murder/suicide and you're my killer now.'

'Your drunken stupor and behavior is now your undoing, as of now Lou, my mate is not a man you want to screw with now. And neither are my friends, Luke Todd, they learn the truth of everything you did to me and they're going to kill you. You want to play hardball, well now let's see how you like being the defendant, because when everyone who sees the tests results now.'

'And added injuries in my med records and you're getting dismembered for both that and this when we get through with you. Mom's locked into the Concord government judge and jury, the mayor and the chief of police. One call to the Boston branch and it's over now.' I heard as I watched her, her breathing became more labored then, her tone loaded with hatred and it was pointed directly at Webster.

'They're going to know you're my biggest reason for this and when the guys learn why and where the added injuries came from. That wound up in my med records, that are buried beneath the ones I'll be getting from this. They're all going to kill you when they hear it from the medical doctors, let alone the cops. And in Boston, because mother has a lot of friends here, say your prayers.'

'And it's because your days are numbered now, did you forget something: I already had a family that would invite me to live with them. Malcolm, Dana and the twins and I found a lot more then that, my new friends, my husband. Everything you ever berated me about, gave it all to me by this project. And with it now as a result here to is this as it's your funeral now, Lou

"My memories are back, I just found my parental guardians you fool, you just screwed with the wrong people. Every politician in town and if I survive this this they're classing it as a murder/suicide rap. As to that, David is getting my godfather involved in this and he's going to kill you himself. When he finds out what's been going on once they read my records: Three times to five times.'

'But the medics don't know the extent, though here, once they learn everything and you're screwe. Well it's over now, and I'm telling them everything, my mate is hearing the trut. So he's a psychiatrist and you just crossed the line, the game is up.' I heard her think with a growl in her tone and just as I was getting ready to shout it out Theo did it for me as we realized what she was getting ready to do then.

'Baby, to ensure David never gets charged for this, there's only one option left now, and you know what it is. Lou doesn't stand a chance now, get the town government involved and do the court trial hearing from here in Concord, you do it here and it's never going to an appeal later, because he can't be tried twice if you all make it out alive and once it hits the Supreme Court its final now.'

'It's over.' the voice said and I realized it then as I said it to Theo. "Dear god, she's giving up." I said to her and she looked at me in shock as she answered me at that. "What the hell is she thinking here?" she asked and I tried to place what she meant by that mental remark. "Whatever they did to her pushed her to this and she's setting him up to take the fall here for her emotional state at the moment best guess now."

"Turning my thoughts to, if I was a teenage psychiatrist to the father causes this in her, though that's true and Craine is the cause of this. But her mother, Webster probably murdered her mother, but she's now setting him up to take the fall. For this to get me out of the hotseat for this, in case he tries to have me charged, she's turning it. So I'm free of charges to finish what I started in my research." I told her and she looked at her.

And in shock at that. "The bastard's just caused her to self destruct out of the latest bombshells?!" she repeated and I nodded. "Yeah and when I get this to Jefferson, if she survives this, he's going to kill Webster when he hears this. But what I do know is she's been holding in eleven years worth of pain and anger, because of Rebecca's condition. Her mother's death, and with it now their treatment of her and whatever it is."

"Said it, this latest one is I'm still trying to put together." I said as we kept our eyes on her as she got him directly in front of the doors. 'Benson and the Dudleys, Jefferson, Walker, Hawthorne and the mayor, they're her parental guardians. Alright her memories back completely, alright I have to tell the Dudleys that in the morning. But first I have to do triage here if she survives this.' I thought as I watched her carefully then firmly.

As she finished it with the next remark. "Now it's just you and me Hugh Craine, the purgatory's over, you go to hell." she said as the demons started shifting their position. 'The Craine bloodline ends with me Hugh, you want me you're going to have to face spending an eternity in hell. To quote that remark 'All ye who stand before these doors shall be judged', and its your judgement day now Craine.'

'The family line ends with me now, it's over.' She thought then to him firmly. 'You're my Vader Hugh, and I'm making sure you're destroyed as of now, Hugh, it's done. To protect everyone in this house, you're never touching anyone else as of now.' I heard her add as her eyes closed as they reached out from the doors. 'It's time boys, bring him in.' she said as she stood there patiently at that remark then.

"Stay with us Nell!" Theo shouted as they reached out from behind and grabbed him and pulled him to the doors, but taking her with him and as I watched, the blast through her against the doors and in the position of a crucifixion on the wall. 'Dear god, please, don't take her away from me, put her down please.' I thought as they gently lowered her to the floor as she collapsed and I watched as he tried to get out of the door.

"Noo!" he shouted, before they shoved him into position, his mouth open in a silent scream of fright. 'Go to hell you asshole.' I thought coldly to him then as I watched the souls of every child that was haunting the house disappear. I saw her head land on the floor. 'No, please no.' I thought as we quickly charged over to her. "Eleanor, Eleanor, come on." I said as I checked her heartbeat, but getting nothing as I checked carefully.

And I felt my anger shoot through me as I got to work then. 'Why did you do that, I know you were protecting us, but trying to kill yourself is no way to handle the situation honey.' I thought gently I thought over everything I heard earlier then. As I thought over what I heard in her mental tone I realized what it was that caused this. And to what happened to cause this in her as I answered that thought gently, but mentally.

'She was beginning to heal finally, before the message on the painting, 'welcome home Eleanor'. This was her ancestral home, and that maniac is her grandfather, shit, okay, the Websters treating her like this. Rebecca gone and now this, one too many bombshells, whatever ability she has. It's goes out of control today as well and now she learns the truth in the worst way possible.'

'And by seeing whatever it she was looking at and she chose to protect us by...' I thought, before looking at her gently as I thought the words then. 'I don't care he's your grandfather honey, I don't, but you can't just quit on me or us. Not because of this, you have everything you want now, don't quit on us. We're not letting you go, we love you, come on, you have everything you want now.'

'Baby, I understand, but you can't give up, not because of them, let alone this, I'm not leaving you, damn you, Webster. But I swear to god whatever you did to cause this in her, I'm killing you for it. If you think you're getting anything out of this, think again she's just set you up for murdering her by doing this. So I'm free of charges and she's my wife, stay the hell away from her, you bastard."

'Or I'm the one killing you here.' I thought with a growl as I looked at her. 'No I'm not losing you, you're not quitting on me, come on. Fight for it, come on.' I thought as I started CPR, and putting my hands over her heart and I started pushing. "I got to resuscitate, otherwise we're going to lose her." I said and she quickly checked her heartbeat, as I started pushing hard I felt my fear shoot through me as I said it firmly.

"We're not letting you go, come on, fight." I said and then growled the next remark. 'I'm not letting you go, don't quit on me, come on baby.' I thought as I said out loud as I injected a firm tone into my voice as I said it. "Come on, you're not leaving me, come on!" I snapped, then, after fifteen minutes of CPR, I felt a gentle thump and then another, as her heart started beating on its own and I sighed in relief then softly.

'That's it baby, fight, don't give up. You have something to live for now, I'm not leaving you, I'm not going anywhere now.' I thought to her softly as Theo looked at me. "Steady rhythm now." she said and I nodded to that as I answered her."Let's just make sure it stays that way, because without the key, we can't take her to the hospital. "We got to check to see how serious her injuries are." I said and she nodded to me then.

As she answered me. "Luke's going to agree when I say this, but we have to take care of her first here." she said and I nodded as I moved her into our sitting room and on the couch, as I laid her down on the couch gently. As I sat on the edge of it, while she was sitting at her feet as she looked at me then. "You think they pushed her to the point to where she's given up completely David, if she risked killing herself to protect us."

"Us and Luke?" she asked and I sighed. "She told me they decided, no matter what she said, to sell the apartment, that portion she gave you upstairs wasn't a lie, she doesn't have anywhere to go now. But that, Rebecca gone, and then to top it off, everything that happened tonight, her emotions reached the point of giving up." I said and her tone went dangerous as I explained this to her as she crossed her arms then sternly at that.

"The damn message on the painting Tuesday wasn't just a sick joke, she just figured out what it meant, this is her ancestral home. The grandpa remark wasn't just any normal remark either, he really is her grandfather Theo. Or more specifically her great, great, great grandfather, her family are originally from here. But she gave us half of it upstairs and the rest of it was in the confrontation in there, she just realized it when we split up."

"He's a deranged psychopath that is probably a child molester and she just realized this, her family moved to Boston and this is the reason why. That's the breaking point part emotionally, Rebecca was the last remaining parent she had, they took away her apartment and now comes the real bombshell, she's related to a deranged paychopathic ghost, who slaughtered at least fifty or sixty children, Freddy's dead metaphor."

"And her grandmother happens to be the owner of her necklace as well, that's the reason for this." I told her and she nodded to that as she answered me. "Lovely, just like they learned Vader was their father, she just learned Craine is a..., she's scared. Of what this going to mean when we just connected and became friends now, uh uh, I'm not letting go anymore than you are." she said and she looked at her gently at that news then

And as she said it firmly. "Nothing is going to change sis, we're not going anywhere, our friendship is all that matters, don't quit on us. You got everything you wanted now, don't give up just because of this." Her tone soft as she said it. "Well she may lost a blood relative, but she's got something to live for now, she's found you as her soulmate. Todd, Mary and us as her new family, I'm going to kill that bitch and her husband for this."

"But one thing's for sure, we're not leaving her like that, Luke and I are staying in touch, if it takes being together in the same city, the six of us in one piece, I'm not letting her go now." she said and I nodded in agreement to that. "The Websters crossed the line here, she's an orphan, she's been controlled by her sister for years in behavior. And then loses and lost the only home she knew, than to top it off, is this news now finally."

"And learns she's the possible blood relative of a deranged psychopathic ghost and being haunted by him and every child he ever murdered. As whatever ability she has causes a near mental breakdown and near suicide attempt. And then it brings it to what happened in the hall, to put this gently it's more than simply just a human thing now." I said with a sigh as I finished my remark then as as I put this in terms she was going to get.

"You recall Mark Hamil's reaction when he learned who Vader really was in the movie twenty two years ago. Let alone at how close he came to turning into him in the third film at the time?" I asked and she nodded. "She never learned much of what was causing all the paranormal outbreaks when she was little. And then the truth comes out this week, two weeks after she deals with the will, but this was a plan to get her together with me."

"To put this gently, in the way the movie showed it she was raised on stories of her great grandfather who was a good man, but the piece left out was why he moved. She's just hit the wall here, emotionally, with everything that has gone on the last ten weeks. Since her mother died, her ability goes crazy, before she's able to control it. She then learns that she's the grand daughter of a homicidal maniac and then just before this happens."

"As she finds out his wife is her grandmother and she's now finishing what she and Rebecca started and getting rid of him for good. To her, her mother had to be her idol now, though she was a bit hard on her, she still idolizes her. But whatever her mother did it was when she was in college and she spent four years being her. And as a younger version and to learn her mother is the great grand daughter of Craine, that did it."

"It's the character's reaction, loss of her home, the only home she knows and her last remaining parent, followed by healing. And simply by meeting us and making new friends, than just when she feels like she's about to heal and move forward to start a new path something changes it again. She's not only an only child, her sister is a tyrant, Webster is a jerk and probably abuses her, as for the big one, her mother favored her."

"And because she was an exact copy of her, had her powers to control those dors, had her ability to see the other side. If I could class this as anything it's the same as Kevin's character in the movie right now. His sister in law unlocked the door in his mind of being aboe to se how the girl died at the time. Whatever she saw today, after she separated from you and then came to us was the activation of it and that's the problem now."

"The scenario in the movies is playing itself out: the kid was training and idolizes his father, he's being trained by his father's mentors, that's the connection now. She's been in training by her mother and she loves her mother and idolizes her and she's hit with the truth of what triggered the triple bypass when she was in her junior year in the worst way possible now, and she crashes and during the crash things get even worse."

"She has to face getting her friends to safety, and just as she's doing that, she realizes that her namesake is her grandmother, before finishing that truth that the lunatic haunting her is really her grandfather and she had to face her fears and does battle with him, before letting go. But that sums it up and here's the real bombshell of her feelings now, because this is why she's giving up now." I told her and she nodded to me then.

"If that's not enough to cause her to give up nothing is right now, she's been hit with one too many bombshells the last two and a half months. In addition to fighting a crazed ghost, I'm looking at the crash and release after an emotional breakdown after holding it in after close to three months. So at this rate she needs severe emotional therapy here, she needs to tell us what is really going on aside from the pieces she gave us."

"Both last night and on Monday, she told me enough to make me realize she needed us and more importantly. It's a matter of understanding her emotions, but whatever she told you last night in the bedroom. It was conected to this, a fear that she kept only to herself until she was ready to deal with it, these powers were thet fear. She evidently didn't want us to know about that gift, so looking at this in a psychological point of view."

"So if she was really playing Skywalker's daughter or son, before he turned into Vader at the time, just learning their father is a homicidal maniac. And a Sithlord is enough to cause them to quit, because they were brought up on stories. And of him being a good man and a hero and idolized him as he was then instead of what he turned into. And their in denial till they hear the truth from someone who is close to them, right now."

"And someone who knows the true story here and why the Craines left for Boston in the first place. Though with what the Chief and the Dudleys said, then they do know, they know everything: the triple bypass, whay she was doing up here, everything. She wanted that information from Rebecca and not getting it herself or hearing it from someone. Said was another family member, but from Rebecca, who possibly lost her chance to tell her."

"Which is what I'm looking at now, her mother is the great, great grand daughter of deranged psychopath and she's just figured that out now. And it's because she forgot the stories her mother used to tell her, she's just hit the final crash in her emotions. And she's needing a chance to heal by making sure we all make it out in one piece." I added gently and she nodded to that as she answered me, before she could I said it then.

"At this rate she needs to be kept under sedation, so she's able to get through all of this mentally, before she's really able to come to terms with it. But the one responsible for this is Webster and his wife and he's in serious trouble here for doing what he's done. And she's now going to be in recovery, physically and emotionally, for two to five months after this." I said with a sigh and she nodded to that as she answered me at thst remark.

"I don't think we got a choice here now with what you just told me, but you, you're the only one she's likely to open up to, next to me, Mary and the guys. We have to take her back to Boston and she's in the hospital for a few weeks, recovering emotionally. And from this during the physical recovery, but she needs us most starting now, if it means leaving New York, I'm not leaving her." she said and I nodded as I crouched next to her.
