Ben's Note of Sheer Awesome: I'm just that good at updating, mmkay? That and I just feel super inspired. Not sure if KCL has noticed my updating spree yet, since I haven't been slapped in the face with fangirly screams, but when she does, expect the entire fandom to self implode with fangirlness. (I'm not insulting you KCL. I'm complimenting on how much you fangirl makes me day and I missed you yesterday. :(). Anyway, let's move on from that for a moment.

Speaking of KCL, to respond to you're long review. Again. I don't mind reading your reviews that are this long. And I don't find you annoying. That's just you being you, and I can respect that :). And what I meant by not understanding the last review is that I have a hard time understanding long paragraphs of text at a time, so I have to reread them to make sense of it. So it wasn't really you, it was me. (Yeesh, sounds like we're breaking up :o.) Also, your secrets are safe with me. *winks* As for Thanksgiving, I normally head up to my grandparents house, but my dad just had surgery done, so I'm staying around town to help him recover. And, drumroll please. *random kid starts playing a drum* your review was 1,087 words! Congrats, you did it! :)

Also, to answer a question from new reviewer Aura Soul. I indeed plan on writing 101 chapters. I'm a busy guy, but I figured these are easy enough to update that I can handle 101 chapters. Glad your liking to story.

This chapter, getting on topic, is indeed a darker one. This chapter literally takes place inside Kitty's head. Italics are Kitty. Italics underlined… you'll just have to see. Oh, and this literally takes place after the last one. Directly after. No space in time has past, this is right after the last one. I can't stress enough that this is right after chapter 12. Thank you.

Prompt 13: Evil

Kitty and Alistair were both sitting on their bench. No time had passed from the last chapter, as mentioned in the Ben Note above. Kitty was leaning against Alistair, thinking to herself as she relaxing against him. Alistair simply wanted to keep me in mind, she thought. A random question he was curious about. That's Alistair. He's just curious.

No. He wants you to die so he doesn't have to deal with you anymore.

Kitty winced. There's that voice… the one that was always in the back of her head. She couldn't exactly pinpoint when the voice started. She knew it popped up one day and never really seemed to leave. However, it didn't really matter what the voice was, as it was in her head no matter what she did.

No, don't be silly. Alistair loves me. I know Alistair. He's just curious about questions that enter his head, that's all.

So you think. What about what he doesn't tell you? He's scared of you Kitty. Of crouse he wouldn't tell you everything.

No, he would tell me everything. We trust each other.

Why would he trust someone as evil as you? You kill people in you're nightmares Kitty. I see you do it. And you enjoy it don't you? Why would Alistair love a girl who enjoyed anything like that?

Kitty's body went rigid. Those nightmares… progressively getting worse and worse. She didn't tell Alistair because she didn't want to bother him. But there was another reason she didn't want to tell him too…

I sense what you feel Kitty. You don't want Alistair to know how evil you are. You want to live a lie. A lie in which you aren't a mass killer. A lie in which you keep Alistair. But that's not you Kitty. You're evil. And Alistair knows it. YOU CAN'T RUN AWAY FROM THIS!

SHUT UP! Kitty yelled inside her mind. Tears were rolling down her cheeks. She couldn't take this voice. She couldn't handle the things it was saying…

She felt a hand brush the tears off her cheeks. "Hey, Kitty? What's wrong?"

Alistair.

"N-n-nothing!" Kitty said, her voice squeaking.

"Kitty, if something's wrong, I'm here for you," Alistair said to her. "I do love you with all my heart. If you ever need to talk about anything, I won't abandon you. I promise."

He's lying to you.

Kitty smiled at him, brushing her remaining tears. "I know you do," she said. "And I know you love me. I love you too."

Don't fool yourself Kitty. He doesn't love you. He's appalled by you're very existence. He'd rid of you the second he found out.

Alistair offered Kitty a smile. "Always," he said, pulling her closer. "Don't ever forget that I will always be by your side. No matter what."

A smile formed on Kitty's face. No, Voice, she thought. I don't think you're entirely right. I may be losing it, and I may be evil… but I don't think Alistair would ever abandon me. He'll help me work through this. He always will.

Then why didn't you tell him? You're afraid he'll abandon you still. You still doubt that he loves you.

Maybe. But only a little. You're what's causing the doubt. One day I'll eventually tell him. But when that day comes, he won't leave me.

Think that. I'll be right here, waiting for you to snap when you realize the one truth you deny yourself from realizing: He doesn't love you.

Kitty promptly drown the voice out. She turned around and kissed Alistair on the lips. He was shocked by the sudden affection, but didn't deny it. When they broke, Alistair asked, "What was that for?"

Kitty smiled. "Just… to keep me sane," she said and resumed snuggling next to her boyfriend.

BN: I'm not actually crying this time! *breaks down crying* Like I said, this chapter kind of took a dark turn, but I think I ended it on a happy note. I wanted to show Kitty's conscience: split into two bits, one confident, one doubtful. Believe it or not, this concept is based off my own mind. So whenever we have a chapter like this, keep in mind I know exactly what I'm doing because this is what goes on in my head. I split it into this: 1. Kitty is confident and has hope that she can overcome the nightmares and false pretenses she is evil and that Alistair loves her either way. This is actually Kitty, the one we see every chapter. 2. The doubt in her mind that nothing will work. That's the voice in her head. I believe I succeeded with this plot point in that Kitty has (for now) overcome her doubt in believing Alistair will always be with her. Overall, I felt that I did well, but I'm leaving that up to you as my readers.

Another thing. The voice in Kitty's head is derived (in the story) from a certain thing mentioned from chapter ten. It isn't that thing per se, but Kitty got it from it. Just a little hint for the future.

Also, one more thing. Remember that idea in chapter eleven about looping? I put info on my profile page to get more of a sense of it. I'm really thinking of doing it. (Also, KCL, Kitty/Alistair might make an appearance if I do do it.) Just something to consider. PM or review if you have questions.

Like? Hate? Meh? Let me know in a review! Or don't! Either works!
