*Ray's point*

In the corner i can feel the present of other room, may some else is in here with me but its too dark to claim it true or not so i process to the next room.

_ I see something in front of me. Another door? ................... It wouldn't hurt to check.

I take more steps closer to the door and then....

A clicking sound is under my feet. A moving spot, when i step on it, it gives out a sound..... But nothing seem to happen around here... Then where and the door still in shut-tight state without a key hole. As that i return to the two of them, planning for some discussion, well, of course, i mean more with Y/N since Zack basically will yell for me delaying our journey.

On the way, i cant ignore all the giggling comes from somewhere that i couldn't make out so i quicken my pace. For some moments pass, now the giggles comes from behind me. I turn around.

_ Its anyone here??

.................................................

_ Um--

I take a few steps back with caution still not want to make any sound.

_ I know what you wish for....Because of my liking toward you, let me make to become a more beautiful one. After all, this is my manor.

There, more giggle....

This floor...

/Thump!/

That was loud, may too loud.

_ What are you cackling about?! Hurry and get the hell out of there!!

Too loud. I should head back.

What greeting me is a mess where all the tombstones have been destroyed considerably not like they can be fix anymore.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

*Y/N's point*

I see Ray come out of the slit, she look surprise, more like shock to see the mess that Zack just makes in ten minutes. I do not involve in any of this, i know nothing. Ray looks at me questioning. What can i possibly do?? Stop him?! Like hell he would listen to me!

I give her a apologetic smile, mouthing sorry and she reply with a sign.

_ What are you taking you so long in there?!

Just as the moment Zack catch Ray's appearance, he just can hold back his yelling. He raise his voice and that sure doesn't bother Ray at all.

_ I could ask you the same thing.

The feeling of a new quarrel about to take place, i change the subject.

_ So...anything new?

Ray agree with my ideal and go along with it.

_ More deep inside is a documentation room. And a locked door.

So there are more exploring thing to do. There goes the yelling.

_ WHAT?! MORE??

Comes from Zack.

Ray hold out her hand to show us something. A sheaf. I can tell that this wont interests Zack and...

I was right.

_ Its profiles. - Zack's body tense up, still expression doesn't change a bit.

_ .........What does it say?

I look through all the papers. Its about Ray and one more person. When i look more closely into the name....

Issac Foster... Why is it so familiar.... I can't figure who is that according to there is no picture in the profile.

_ Its useless then! Its about your information which you know so well, no more and no less. - Zack says out loud cut my thought in the middle.

This guy is not dead yet. There are just three options, survivor, killer or none of both. Without thinking, it just slip out.

_ Is this you, Zack?

I glance at him from my left, sure he doesn't know how to hide things, especially his emotion. Zack doesn't say anything at first which in a second there, i thought i miss lead.

_ So? Did anything catch your eyes then?

He says while not turn his head but keep his ear open.

_ ..... Yeah. I am Issac Foster.

As he states, he process our distance, cut it short. Now Zack looks deep into my eyes which only reflect his own image. Bored.

_ ........Impression? ............ None.

Looking down.

Zack's piss off. He grabs my chin transmitted to a light pain, knowing how much force he used in it. He makes me face him again.

_ Nothing??!! Are you f*cking kidding me??!

Hurts. It hurts.

_ Its papers about you, no more and no less.

Some moments later, while i almost loss all my sense, Zack speaks up.

_ Do you fear me?

..............................

_ Why--? ........... Not a bit.

Then he laughs. Hard.

_ Long time ago, a girl told me the same thing ......... Yeah ... long time ago ....

_ You know what, she even said she want to tried what i was doing and be amazed that easily .....

_ For the first sight, she looked just like other stupid girls in the orphanage .....

.......................................................

_ .............. heh ... maybe she IS a stupid girl after all.

Looking down.

Sorry .....

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We decide to go look through the whole place again. Ray claims there's must be more clues out here since we are stuck at the spot with no more new lead. On the way back, Ray mentions a voice she heard in the dark tunnel. Me and Zack both keep silent for her to continuous. So the master of this floor has shown up. Tough one if he uses the dark to cover his action, could be hard to deal. They did said they want to make Ray a pretty tombstone and how they like her, would be a waste if she isn't dead, right?

I advise Ray don't even dream about lying in that bastard's , if she wanna be killed that much, i'd rather make her one myself. Zack laughs at my words, joke if i mean to lie with her, he'd happy to kill me slowly, painfully and may even make a nice tombstone for me with his skill in no time. I doubt it. I just huff in respond and he smirk, humored with his own joke.

Without my attention, Ray begins to collect some papers on the way, quick glimpse and put them inside her pockets.

" Lets me help you. "

" If you desire a painful dead, i will deliver it roughly. With a dry-fly, i'll do it my best. Anything you want. "

" What way you want your death be delivered? "

Ray show us to the bridge, there goes with the thing creates pubbles under the dirty water.  She points at the spot.

_ There should be thing .....

_ What do you want to do with it?

Zack looks at the cold water, shiver run down his spine. I get on my feet to touch the water. Cold and dirty. No way i gonna go in.

_ Please, go and step on that thing.

_ WHAT??!!

She used the "please" word at least. But i save the thought to myself.

_ If you have any complaint ----

Zack glaces at me. Back at Ray. Ray notices that.

_ Well then, if you resist, i'll have (Y/N) goes for it.

_ Hey!! I didn't say i wont do it! Not like your kind, i wont die trap in this place!

Next he points at me.

_ Especially you! Dont die or get killed! You are annoying, who knows if you go and piss that crazy bastard. I dont wanna get stuck forever!!

I smile sweetly.

_ Oh, don't worry ~

I want to see him try.

Ray suddenly speak out.

_ ...... Will ...... will you kill me for my sake? --- I'm nobody ....

_ Ray .... God won't be pleased.

She feels silent.

_ If you want to be in dead state so much, why dont ya commit suicide ... ?

I pull her with me by taking her hand in mine far from Zack. I glare at him before disappearing in the next room.

Because it's unforgivable.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I grab her shoulders when we're out of Zack's sight.

_ Don't tell him.

She titles her head to the side. Cute.

_ Just we know it's enough.

Zack need not know this side about Ray. I want to be the only one who know Ray's secret.

Well, it's not completely fake though.

_ Remember, you need to be focus on being useful to Zack, dont you?

I bet if it's Zack, he'd want Ray to put more effort in her facial expression which to fulfill his desire is to make Ray react to her death coming. Her death fish eyes is the most trouble. Just like ....

She is already dead.

_ Ray, smile for me, will ya?

_ ..... smile .....

Her lips curl up at the corner, but that's all.

I shake my head.

_ Your eyes, still no good.

This is just wasting time.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

_ Ugh!! This place give me a chill, it's disgusting!!

Huh? It's a picture floating on the water surface toward me.

_ -- !!

I flip the other side. There are hand writting have been blurred by time.

_ ...... Before the trauma ......
