"Where do you suggest we go?" Ciara asked him, unsure herself what move they should make. They had gotten in the house in the first place through a mirror, so it wasn't as if there was going to be a normal door that they could just walk to. The two of them were stuck there until whoever was controlling the setting decided other wise.
"Maybe," Ciara began, "We're just supposed to live life here as if it's reality for now. There has to be something here we're supposed to accomplish, and we're probably not going to leave until we do whatever that is."

"Well obviously it wasn't kill a jackass." Van sat and thought for a few seconds with nothing coming to mind except for Ciara. "I've got nothing. My father and brother left already and who knows who else is left here.'

"I think we're supposed to just continue living here." Ciara said once more, getting to her feet and crossing her arms. "I came here for answers and I got some already, there has to be more. If Matteo was that bad then most won't miss him, it will just be the media that goes crazy. We just need to think of a reason for you staying here and we'll be fine. It was your brother who killed him, so technically you're innocent."

"The two of them will have gone to Crete, their is a fairly secluded hiding place for them.If we have to we can redirect anybody who ask to them." Things were getting so complicated, "As for me, let's just say that after the grusom attack you felt it necessary to better guarante your own safety and thus you hired a new body guard." It was simple enough to believe.
Van pulled the brim of the hat down covering his eyes, "And like this My own father wouldn't recognize me should my picture appear somewhere." At least thats what Van hoped, he had no idea how well his father knew him in this world.

"Well, then we have to go back in there. Me disappearing while only result in what happened back in the real world." Ciara said to him, even though she didn't wish to go back into the ballroom herself. Having actually lived a different life the life back in there seemed so fake. She didn't belong there, not anymore.
"Now where'd you put my gown?"

Van tilted his head toward the closet, "It's in there." He stood up and started to straighted the wrinkles in the jacket. If they were going to pull this off He would have to stay well kept in public. It wouldn't be the first time he had pulled off a deceit and certainly not the last.

"I changed for nothing." Ciara mumbled, opening the closet and pulling out the gown she had been wearing. She had to admit that the dress was beautiful, but even so it was simply not her favorite thing to wear. In her opinion less was better, but she was still able to put on the mask of a proper lady when it was required.
With her back to Van, she then took of the dress he had given her and put back on her expensive gown. After that, she walked over to the mirror in the room and expertly pulled her hair back up into the up-do it had been before. Quickly getting ready was something she had learned to do.

Van straightened the last wrinkle out on the jacket hoping that it looked better than when he had put it on. He pulled the fedora to where the shadow covered his eyes and turned back to Ciara in time to see her finish her hair.
Van opened the door with his hand this time, "Lead the way my lady."

Ciara laughed a bit as they walked back into the garden that they had been in earlier. They could've gotten to the ballroom another way, but going through the garden was a simple one. The house itself seemed like a castle. It had been standing there for hundreds of years and instead of getting destroyed additions kept being added, so the house only became more massive.
Finally making it to the ballroom, Ciara walked inside. Rummaging through her mind were thoughts about how she was going to go about what was about to happen.

Van saw the headless figure on the ground covered with a large table cloth. A splatter pattern of blood was on one of the walls and was lead to by a slight trail.
Van's guess had been right, Issac had even used the explosive rounds that he so enjoyed. He was relieved to see the body covered, Ciara didn't have to see the carnage that was usually left behind after a league assassination. He moved over to a table and drank a swift glass of water.

Ciara stood there simply staring at the dead body of the boy she was supposed to marry. Everything was seeming so surreal to her at that point. Sure, it wasn't truly reality in the first place but it was starting to feel as if it was. It wasn't that she was bothered by death, it was merely the fact that it seemed like all the people she was involved with faced their deaths. That thought bothered her.
"Ciara!" The voice of Serena yelled out, which resulted in a flustered Serena rushing over to Ciara.
"What happened?" Ciara asked Serena confused with a perfect confused desperate tone in her voice.
"It's Matteo." Serena explained. "He was murdered!"
"What?!" Ciara yelled at her still acting. "H-How could that be? I mean I've been hearing people talk, but I never thought..."
"We think it was people who were against him taking the throne." Serena explained to Ciara. The girl didn't even seem sad at the fact that her brother had died. The two of them never had a good relationship. He had always been a horrible brother to her, so in the end she didn't even care.
Ciara was silent for a moment. The throne? If Matteo wasn't going to take the throne that meant that Serena was next in line. Ciara was out of the picture. Even if things had played out without her mother dying she would've still not been Queen of England.
Serena, finally noticing Van, looked at him confused. "And who are you?"

Faeth sighed as she opened the door to the libray and headed towards the non-fiction section. It was only her second day and she had so much homework already. "I so miss middle school"! she covered her mouth and blushed. Ummm well that was embarrassing She smiled to herself though. I mean if this didnt get me noticed in a bad way it wouldn't be so horrible right? She drug her feet as she approached the shelves of bordem she loved reading but for some reason she hated reading this she was told to she laughed as she scanned the rows of books stopping at biographies on the past headmaster and Kio High History books and pulled them from the shelves. She sighed as she gathered her 4 books and headed towards a vacant table away from other students. Faeth sat the books down and messingly pulled her hair up out of the way and began studying

Van turned around, he had to think fast. He couldn't chance giving this girl his real name. His mind ran like crazy running through all possibilities waiting for one that sounded right, "Anton." it was the first thing to leap out of his mouth. "Winchcombe."
Winchcombe? Was that even a name? Please buy it. Van needed to avoid confrontation. For both his and Ciara's sakes.

Opening the books and setting them accordingly she opened her notebook and pulled out her pen. "Might as well start at the beginning..." She pulled the first history book towards herself and began reading through the several paragraphs of who the schools original benefactors was and how the school came to be. She always had a problem with taking way too many notes but in the end it always proved helpful. Bending over the books again she raised her pen to her lips and began biting the cap strands of her red hair fell loose from their bindings and drapped before. She smiled as she pulled it back behind her eyes and turned her eyes once more to her literary work. This is so boring I should be hanging out with my friends but seeing as i dont know anyone for miles thats kinda hard....I miss you girls!!

"Um okay... hi." Serena said to him, too caught up in the current events to really care about who he was or where he was from. "I'll talk to you later, Ci." She said to her friend before turning and walking away.
Ciara laughed as she left, looking towards Van as if he was crazy.
"Anton Winchcome?"
