(A/N: Diego is such a gentleman! He always makes me think of Garry from Ib)
I opened my eyes and couldn't help but feel squished. I looked to my right and saw what was pushing me into the wall. It was Diego. I smiled and tried to wriggle away. He opened his eyes "Where do you think your going?" he asked. "To the bathroom." I said as he finally let go of me. I went into the bathroom and turned on the light. In the mirrior I saw a house. It was bigger than Henry's. In front of it was the boy I saw in the mirrior from the night before. "Don't trust him...he lies to you." the boy said "Who? Don't trust who?" I asked and the image dispersed as I felt a hand clomp down on my shoulder. "Who are you talking to?"
I sighed in relief. It was only Diego. Diego would know what to make of this! "Diego it was that boy again! He told me not to trust someone and that they are lying to me but..." I trailed off "But what Bethany?" he asked in an odd voice "Who do you think he is talking about?" I asked "He is talking about me. He obviously dosn't want to die and will do anything to get you on his side. Whatever you do...promise me you'll never leave." Diego gave me a serious look "I promise" I smiled up at him. "On any note I should leave you to get ready for breakfast. I will wait outside to escort you to the dinning room." Diego said looking at my messy hair. "Yes of course" I said as he left.
It didn't take me long to comb back my hair and put on my hat. I also had to straighten out my clothes. "You have a buisy day ahead my dear...are you prepared for the day?" Diego asked me "I believe so...I'm still confused about earlier though" I said to "Try not to think too much about it. I would never want that delicate mind of yours to implode with thoughts of...betrayal" he said in a odd tone. "Betrayal? I could never betray you! You saved my life! If anything...I owe my life to you Diego: I said "Thank you my dear Bethany yours words whisper kindness where ever they go" he said. I felt a sharp poke in my side. I looked over and saw the stripped clown Jack. "Hello"
Jack's tone was deep and a bit scratchy. "Hello Jack" I said with a smile. "Are you enjoying your food? Perhaps you need something to dip it into. It is only bread after all. Maybe some of my speacial sauce?" he lifted up a tiny wooden bowl of crimson liquid with a coppery smell. It looked thick and didn't even splash or anything when I dipped my bread into it. I was about to take a bite when- "Don't eat it. Don't let them control you." I gasped and as a result of my shock I jabbed my arm out and knocked the liquid bowl out of Jack's hand.
Looking closer I realised that the liquid looked like blood. "There was a voice in my head Diego!" I cried out "Calm yourself my dear...it was just the imposter. Do not listen to him, do not fear him, do not question why he is doing this. I will tell you this once...He wishes only for the world to burn he is a mad man and will do whatever it takes to succeed in his quest." Diego said. "What quest?" I asked "HE and his allies wish to rule over the humans. They want to torture and kill them like a game...like a sport." Diego told me. "That is horrible!" I gasped "It only gets worse. They plan on destroying any entity in their way. That includes me my dear. They take no prisoners."
"Why would they do such terrible things? Did their families or even friends not care for them?" I asked. In my village the next generation was always based on how they were treated by their families and friends. "I don't know my sweet Bethany. I don;t know..."
