Little sister with a big secret.

Note: This one's only short. But I had to get it posted, but don't worry the next one will be longer, promise! :) Oh and there's a hidden little clue in here as to what might happen soon and which character may come into it, I wonder if anyone can spot it? :)


Jester still hadn't spoken to him. She'd ignored him for a whole week now, he honestly didn't think it was possible. He found himself missing her though, it was strange really. He'd started by wishing her to just leave him alone and now she was… he missed her company, even though she was right next to him.

"Jester… I'm… sorry alright?" he grit out turning on his side, while wincing at the sudden pain in his ribs that reminded him he had broken, fractured and bruised ribs.

"I'm sorry too big brother R. I didn't mean what I said by the way…. I just… well, I got mad," she sighed and turned back to him. "I'll tell ya' Eddie. But only if we stick to that deal, ya' got it?"

Edward winced, now he wished he'd never offered that deal up. "Alright."

"Well?"

"Well?"

"You gotta tell me first since you went and did some studying out of class," Jester giggled.

Edward sighed. "My father… hated me. He always called me a moron. He would abuse me… on a regular basis, called me names and he hurt my mother," Edward paused and took a shaky breath. "He was by far a nice man, he was a terrible terrible man, who didn't understand the meaning of the word 'parenting' at all."

Jester nodded. "An idiot then. Why do big people pick on kids?"

"I don't know," Edward muttered. "That's the one riddle even I can't solve."

"And Mist Terry? Where does she fit in?"

"I was 14 and I was sitting outside, telling riddles in the playground like I usually did, then she came over, the new girl at the time, wearing her short black pleated skirt, her white shirt and green sweater with the long socks and the small black high heels, with that little green headband of hers, holding her history books. She asked for a riddle, so I gave her the riddle of the sphinx, except it was the lesser known second riddle," Edward paused before smiling. "She… she answered it. She got it right first time and then she walked off shouting 'thanks for the riddle, riddle boy' unfortunately she just signed by death sentence when it came to the bullies. They beat me up and locked me in a locker and then she came and got me out, beating the bullies up in the process."

"Aww that's so sweet! I take it you became friends after that?"

"It took a while, but once I realised she wasn't a threat and more of a friend I… accepted her. We became close friends and then it progressed to something more…" he smiled slightly.

"You had a crush on her didn't you?"

Edward sent her a glare. "I think I've told you enough, it's your turn now."

Jester sighed and bit her lip. "Well, a deal's a deal I guess. Hmm… how far did ya' get?"

"I just want to know what happened at the ACE chemicals plant."

Jester nodded before frowning. "Well, there's nothing much to tell. I hot wired cars ya' see and would sell the parts for scrap metal, make a little bit of money to buy some things but I hot-wired Black Mask's car and he wasn't happy, not one bit," she paused before sighing. "Me and my dear sis' looked the same ya' see and so he got Sasha instead of me, I was hiding at the ACE chemicals. My sis' sold me out and the next thing I knew I was being throttled by Black Mask, with my sister smiling and laughing in the back ground. I begged her to help me, but se shook her head and held up her mask. Then I went over the railing and down, before hitting the chemicals, but my sister didn't get out of that completely unscaved. The reason she wears that mask of hers, all the time, is because she is horribly disfigured on most of the left hand side of her face from the chemicals and fire," Jester giggled a little bit. "I guess in a way I got the last laugh."

"Why did she do that? I thought twins were close."

Jester gave a breathy laugh. "Ha, that's funny, so did I. Guess I was wrong. My sis cared more about her obsession then me. She's obsessed with masks ya' see, loves them, so why wouldn't she team up with Black Mask? Kinda a bad joke if ya' ask me. She killed that lady too!" Jester paused before frowning. "The one that was going to adopt me, she killed her and said it was so they couldn't separate us, but I now realise she was jealous."

"Mary Kenning," Edward muttered.

"Yeah. That's her. Her husband works here as a guard ya' know, or at least he did. He's kinda dead now, boss J man shot him," Jester frowned. "I feel real sorry for that kid, now he's lost both his parents and it either had something to do with me or Sasha."

"What's his name?"

"Danny Kenning. I think he was in an accident or something."

"And you know this because…?"

"I felt bad for the kid ya' know. Lost both his parents, I sorta know how that feels, so I've been keeping an eye on him," explained Jester. "I really feel bad for him, but I just hope he doesn't hold some sort of vendetta against me."

Edward nodded. "It would be inconvenient."

"Yep, it really would!"

"Jester."

"Yeah Eddie?"

Edward paused. "You do of course realise, I still have more to tell yet now I do not have to, you've told me all I wanted to know."

"Oh I know," the girl grinned at him. "I always knew."

"So what's to stop me from using said information against you?" Edward questioned.

Jester laughed. "Oh Eddie… it's your little problem that's holding ya' back. I know you won't tell any one."

"And how did you work such a thing out?"

"Well ya' see, my past is a riddle," Jester turned to him and grinned. "And a riddle that everyone knows the answer to, is worthless."
