If you ever find yourself stuck in the middle of the sea✒ I'll sail the world to find you✒ If you ever find yourself lost in the dark and you can't see✒ I'll be the light to guide you✒
✒You can count on me like 1, 2, 3✒ ✒I'll be there✒ ✒And I know when I need it✒ ✒I can count on you like 4, 3, 2✒ ✒You'll be there✒ ✒'Cause that's what friends are supposed to do, oh yeah✒
Romulus walked to the huge front door, eyes wide. He hadn't been here in a long time, but he knew he had to face this place. He had found the key in the bottom corner of his trunk, and when he mentioned it to Anna and Remy, both seemed game to join him. Remy had apparated them here, and now it was his turn. He slid the old silver key into the lock, then turned it, the door creaking open. "W-welcome girls. Watch your step. Father used to keep valuable antiques on the floor. And silver things. He liked to think he was safe from harm here." He worded himself very carefully, as Anna didn't know Remy's secret. He stepped in the house, then flicked a switch near the door, flooding the house with light from a rather scary looking chandelier. He glanced around nervously, even though he was certain his mother was away.
✒You'll always have my shoulder when you cry✒ ✒I'll never let go, never say goodbye✒ ✒You know...✒
✒If you're tossin' and you're turnin' ✒And you just can't fall asleep ✒I'll sing a song beside you ✒And if you ever forget how much you really mean to me ✒Every day I will remind you

Remy was a bit queasy from her first multiple person apparation, her hands on her knees and body slumped forward. When Romy welcomed, she looked up at the door, carefully storing away his information. A lot of silver, eh? That meant a lot of stuff she couldn't touch. Hopefully she could keep Anna's sharp eyes from noticing. The teen grabbed her flashlights, handing them to the two younger ones as she took her wand. She wanted to be prepared for the worse. "Let's do this." Just as she lit up a Lumos on her wand, Romy flicked on the lights. Remy scowled as she ceased the spell, then thwacked her brother in the back of the head as she entered the large entry room.

I still hear your voice when you sleep next to me. I still feel your touch in my dream. Forgive me my weakness, but I don't know why. Without you it's hard to survive. Your arms are my castle, your heart is my sky. They wipe away tears that I cry. The good and the bad times, we've been through them all. You make me rise when I fall. 'Cause everytime we touch, I get this feeling. And everytime we kiss, I swear I could fly. Can't you feel my heart beat fast? I want this to last. Need you by my side. 'Cause everytime we touch, I feel the static. And everytime we kiss, I reach for the sky. Can't you hear my heart beat so... I can't let you go. Want you in my life.  __________________________________________________ Annabeth followed Romy and Remy as they led her to a gigantic mansion. It was magnificent, if a bit neglected. She had to stop and stare at it, take it all in. So... This is where Romy used to live? He had certainly lived a nice life, from what she could tell. Of course, she didn't know the whole story, so what else would she think? She had always had a natural sense of curiosity, so maybe she would ask Romy about his life here. It must have been something grand. As her boyfriend approached the front door, Anna hurried along after him. She definitely didn't want to get left behind in a place like this. Romy opened the door and warned them to be careful of items littered across the floor. Why keep antiques on the floor? She shrugged at the thought, grasping the flashlight Remy had handed to her. Well, she might need it later. Romy had already turned the lights on, earning him a smack in the head from his older sister. Anna swallowed her laughter and petted the same spot on which the boy had been thwacked. "So why are we here, exactly? Other than to have an amazing adventure, I mean." she asked, smiling as she took Romy's hand and entered the house. Three teenagers didn't just sneak into a mansion on a whim, after all. __________________________________________________ ♥ Writer for the Daily Dragon xxxx♥ Loving Romulus Bleiddiaid xxxxxxxx♥ Turning the Page: - - - xxxxxxxxxxxx♥ In the Margins: - - -

Romulus snickered at his sister, despite getting a whack to the back of his head. He watched his sister walk in the room, then offered a smile to his darling girlfriend, who was currently petting his hair. "A number of reasons, a few of them being along the lines of I need my stuff back and I want to extend cordial wordings of just how they can piss off." He smirked, then slid his hand into Anna's. "C'mon. I want to let you see where I came from." He led her into the house, then smiled. "I hate this place."
He walked into the room, looking at a huge door. He tugged it open to show rows upon rows of books. He smiled brightly, then called to the girls. "C'mon! Let's start bottom up! To the dungeon!" He pushed aside a heavy rug and gripped a ring handle in the floor. With an annoyed grunt, he jerked it open and revealed the trapdoor to the dungeons.

Remy looked around the house, eyes wide. There was a coat of arms over the fireplace and a huge staircase. She took a few steps up the staircase, then looked at the other two. "Come on! What's up here?! Where are we going! Stop being cutesy! We have work to do!!" She ignored Romy's scowl, then leaped down the steps to the floor, her nose wiggling a thousand miles a minute with all her curious sniffing.
When Romy pulled open a door and began tugging at the floor, his words about the dungeon drifted up. "That scary hell hole he tortured us in? Why the flip would we want to go there! It's dark and scary!" She flailed her arms a bit, then clutched her flashlight as she peeked in the library and at her younger brother. At least he knew his way around down there.... you know, probably.

Want you in my life.  __________________________________________________ Anna held tight to Romy's hand as he led her into what seemed to be a library of sorts. Once there, the girl looked around at the books that lined each wall, surrounding them completely. What lied in those pages, she wondered. What mysteries waited to unfold, treasures waited to be discovered, knowledge waited to be obtained. 'I wonder why Romy hates this place. He doesn't seem to like his parents, from what he said earlier. Hmm... Maybe I can find out while I'm here.' she thought as Romulus shoved a large rug to the side and opened a secret hatch in the floor. Curious, Anna glanced into the hole. It was pitch black. What if she fell? Where would she end up? The dungeon... Remy called it a Hell-Hole. Where she had been... tortured? Did she hear that right? 'Tortured? Who would torture them here? This is their parent's house, right?... Does this have something to do with Romy's hatred of them?' the teen wondered. Anna flicked on her flashlight. The hand that was held by Romy's tightened it's grip, squeezing the boy's hand as if life depended on it's presence there. She looked to the boy, a nervous and lopsided pout sort of thing finding it's way across her face. "Don't let go while we're down there. Promise?" she asked, hoping for a positive answer. If her boyfriend and his sister were tortured down there, she didn't want to be without him. Not even for a moment. __________________________________________________ ♥ Writer for the Daily Dragon xxxx♥ Loving Romulus Bleiddiaid xxxxxxxx♥ Turning the Page: - - - xxxxxxxxxxxx♥ In the Margins: - - -

Romulus sat there, his legs dangling in the seeming chasm that was the entrance to the dungeons below his old home. Anna seemed to be attempting to crush his hand, so he looked up as she spoke. "I won't. Look, I'll even give you.... this while we're here. It'll keep you safe." He smiled as he slipped off his ever present bracelet, then looped it around Anna's wrist. After turning on his flashlight, he carefully led the girls down the steep stone steps. He hated it down here, mostly because it seemed to always be scalding hot and rather humid. He carefully angled his flashlight to a niche in the wall. "Just a sec..." he said, taking the small flint lighter and fumbling for something. After about a minute of his struggling, a ball of fire was lit in a sort of jar-shaped chandelier just above head-level. Lucky for them, they were a rather short bunch. "There. Light... sorta. Welcome to the dungeons of Bleiddiaid Manor." He gave an awkward sort of smile, gesturing around at the rather eerie cells in the wall, a sliver cage upended in the floor, and dried blood on the floor and walls. Not exactly a great first date location.

Remy followed her brother and his girlfriend to the dungeons, then watched her brother light a weird, lamp-like device, which gave a total of three square inches of light. "It's so... creepy down here. It's a lot different when you're not being held here by a crazy man." She lightly touched two of her fingertips to her lips, remembering that the man, her father, had made her swear on silence, that if she spoke, he'd personally make sure she wasn't heard again. It was a bit nightmare inducing. Gold eyes fell on the tiny silver cage she'd called home for god only knows how many days, wondering if it was even possible for her still to fit. Not that she was about to test it, hell no. Just a curious thought. She next glanced to Anna, wondering if she knew what had happened. "Romy, have you told her why we're really here? What you're wanting to achieve?" Her gaze was gentle as she looked at the two younger teens, wondering if Romy was ready to even begin dredging up his tale.
