I thank you all from the bottom of my heart for your wonderful reviews.
Especially Antigone. I ADORE YOU! Youmake updating exciting! XD!

I wasn't completely happy with how this turned out but here it is!

Will felt her presence before he saw her. A chill run down his spine and the hairs stood up on his arms. The air seemed to grow thicker, making it harder to breath. Then she appeared, walking toward him like she belonged there. Almost convincing him this was natural, if it weren't for the objects she walked through in her straight path toward him. She tilted her head to one side and her large eyes seemed to stare through him, as easily as he could stare through her. Her movements were agonizingly slow but just as Will thought this he found himself again face to face with her.

Her hand moved to his face, its coldness even worse than before. She seemed as if she were examining him, like a curious animal would an outstretched hand. Finally looking into Will's eyes she grabbed his hand with her free one. Carefully she placed something in his palm and closed his fingers around it, never once looking away from him or even blinking. Will opened his hand but was unable to pull away from her gaze. Finally she closed her eyes and held them shut. He looked down into his palm and saw that he was holding a handful of beans. Beans. Jake's magic beans. Their black shells glistened in the evening light. Here were the beans. He almost cried out in relief. A smile grew wide on his face and his shoulders slumped in contentment.

Suddenly the lady's eyes flew open, grabbing Will's attention and causing him to drop the beans. Her eyebrows furrowed causing deep wrinkles in her forehead. Her mouth parted and a small whimper escaped her lips. He was shocked to see tears fall down her cheeks. Her shoulders seemed to tense in pain. Without warning her hands flew up and held on to either side of Will's head. Her fingers gripped tightly to his hair and she held him there, forcing him to stare into her dark eyes (as if he could look away).

All at once a red hot pain went shooting through his mind. Like an agonizing flame, burning in the center of his brain and spanning outward. Will's hands flew up to his scalp almost ripping his hair out in agony. Tears poured down his cheeks from eyes squeezed shut. He tried desperately to wrench away from her but she remained solid and he nearly wept in hopeless frustration.

He felt as if something were walking around in his mind wrenching out his memories and then patching them up with something different. He saw images that had no significance to him and found other ones slipping away. He saw the glint of a candle off well made glasses. He saw a trembling hand folding faded clothing. He saw flushed red cheeks, pale white skin. He saw snow, tears running down cheeks. All moving by so fast and explaining nothing. And each image left a burning hole through his mind.

He pulled his eyes open desperately seeking the eyes of the woman. Her face was hard as of a statue the only indication of life the tears that dripped down her cheeks. Will grabbed at her hands trying to pull them away from him but they wouldn't budge and the flood of images returned with a vengeance. Torn clothing. An empty room. A limp hand. Bruises and blood. Blood. Fear overwhelmed Will. Fear for what he didn't know. Fear from these images that showed terrible signs but explained nothing. Fear for what he had done. Fear for Jake. And then suddenly everything stopped.

Will stood alone. The woman had gone and taken the pain with her. He held his arms to himself to stop the trembling. He felt different. He felt wrong and odd somehow. There was an empty, heavy weight on his chest. It was something he hadn't felt before. Yet it seemed to live there, like it had always been there. It was hollow almost numbing. Numbing but at the same time holding a throbbing ache. It was like brokenness or hopelessness but different. A great sigh escaped his chapped lips. This feeling . . . it was loneliness.

Still no answers. I know. I'm sorry. I'll get there. Just stay with me.
