Excellent excuse Blake. And happy belated birthday! Here, have a virtual hug and a virtual cat doing cat-like things. :D If your feet fall off, I can't help you.

This chapter was lame as lame can get but speeches are tomorrow and I'm panicking so here you go (although when you read this I probably read mine already). Enjoy your chapter.

"But Grandfather-"

"No buts, Betrayal," ZALGO shushed her. "You will all work together. No questions asked. You may leave."

"Damn old man." Betrayal cursed. She sent a glare at Blake who didn't seem to notice. The rest of us got up and were ready to leave.

'This is not gonna work. There is no way we can work together without someone dying (again) or any other casualty showing up.'

'We could always ignore ZALGO~ After all he probably won't know.'

"Oh and one more thing." Rain and I turned around to face a sinister looking ZALGO. "If you go against my order, or ignore your objective, you will have to answer to me."

'...Forget I said anything, sis~!'

'I hate you.'

We left ZALGO's palace-thing and went back home. Blake, Iniquity and Betrayal have been glaring at each other for the past five minutes. As for Rain and I, Rain is playing with her fingers, and I'm going over the current events and information.

-The Birthday sisters were going to kill each other.
-Blake would kill anyone that gets in her way (why does knowing that hurt so much?).
-ZALGO is a dick.
-We have to catch Kira.
-What 'stunts' did Blake pull that ZALGO mentioned?
-Everyone is still staring at each other.

I have a feeling by the end of this, all of this, no one is getting out unscathed.

"Well," Blake stood up. "I have some old friends to meet. I'll be back whenever."

"Wait Blake-"

"Goodbye Silence." Okay she's angry and looks a bit hostile at the moment. She quickly made her way to the door slammed it shut.

"I swear to all that is listening, I can't work with her." Betrayal huffed after the Blake was gone.

"Grandfather wants us to cooperate Lily, we have to listen." Iniquity sighed. "Although I rather not."

"I know that but I'm sure I can find a way to get past that!" Betrayal stated, I don't think anyone believed her, I didn't.

"Right. Betrayal, why don't you and I go make plans to over throw your grandpa. Iniquity and S can play board games." Rain jumped up and lead Betrayal into one of the other rooms.

"...So what in Hell's name were you thinking? Attacking Blake I mean. Do you want to get us all in trouble?" I accused when I was sure that Rain and Betrayal were gone.

"I don't trust her Silence. I don't understand why you and your friends stay with her." She said. "She'll only ruin you."

"Well Blake is my friend, I can't tell you why the others want to stay with her, other than that one reason. Blake is our friend."

"For how long? She admitted it herself S, Blake would kill all of you to get where she wants!" Iniquity snapped. "Would you let her kill Lucy or Ana?"

"Of course not!" I answered. "Look, at the moment no one is trying to kill anyone except you three. If anyone is going to die, it'll be one of you."

"If I get the chance to get rid of her one day, I will take it." Iniquity replied coolly. "All I'm saying that you should accept the fact that your best friend, isn't so great.

"Really, did you ever forgive her for what she did to Way and- what was his name, Matt? Mitch? Michael? Yes Michael- Michael?" Iniquity asked. I have no idea what she's talking about.

"What are you talking about? Way and Mikey died months ago." I twitched. For a quick second, Iniquity looked surprised before she put on her mask again.

"Of course she wouldn't tell you. Or anyone for that matter." She muttered. "Blake killed them. That was what my grandfather was referring too. Blake killed Way and Michael."

...

I started laughing. I was laughing so much I was clutching my sides. "I'm sorry, what? Blake didn't kill them! Way died in his sleep and Mikey, Mikey was shot." I stopped laughing. "Blake couldn't have killed them, she wouldn't have been anywhere near them during their deaths."

"...Tell me S, do you remember when and how Way ended up in the hospital?" Iniquity asked, she answered before I could. "When Believe left. He was in the hospital for years, he relapsed because of her."

"Ini-"

"As for Michael, Blake was the one who shot him. The police never found the killer, they forgot about him. Just like she did." Iniquity stated.

"Iniquity, stop." I ordered darkly. "Even if she did, don't give me that look, she wouldn't forget about Mikey."

"...I apologize for sounding heartless, S." She hummed. "If you don't believe me, ask her. She may lie, but I'm sure you could get the truth from her."

"Fine. I'll play your game." I glared at her. "I won't deny the fact that Way relapsed because of Blake's absence, but she didn't deal the final blow. He was a living corpse. If Blake really did kill Mikey, then she killed him. What should I do?"

"Well Silence, you're one of those people who would defend their loved ones no matter the cost, right?" Iniquity said, I nodded. "Then what would you do if it was a loved one who harmed another?"

I didn't know what to say. Truthfully, I don't know what I would do. It's a very conflicting question. Mikey and Way are already dead, but Blake is alive. If Iniquity is telling the truth... I don't know how to feel about this.

Seeing that I wasn't going to answer, Iniquity stood up and frowned.

"I can't give you an answer to your question, only you can. When you have an answer, do tell me." Her frown turned into a cold smile. She went outside to the balcony, leaving me with my thoughts.

Iniquity wasn't wrong, I had to find an answer myself. But I won't, at least not right now. Besides, I need to find Blake and confront her about this.

She'll come back later, that's when I'll talk to her. In the mean time I could work on the Kira case.
