Lena slid into the room, just in time for Braden to reach for Keira again, pulling her into his arms, and Linnea to slide down against the wall. Heading that way, she kneeled down next to the girl.

"Linnea, are you ok?" she asked, moving her hand to place on the girl.

Kamau had taken station outside of the door, his jaguar form sitting up like he was an old statue, eyes alert for anything that could interrupt.

Braden pulled his shirt off, and used it to clean Keira's hands up. "Keira... can you hear me?" he asked in a soft voice, sounding very worried.

Greg looked over at Xade and shrugged. "I have no clue. They were grabbing blankets and pillows when some spirit attacked Keira. We are not sure after that." he admitted as he pulled into the room.

It took a few moments, a few droplets of blood staining her hair as it rolled down her temples, before finally her eyes fluttered open, breathing shallow and vision blurry. "He's dead..." she mumbled, almost too soft to hear. After all..the image of Chace was burned into her brain, whether she liked it or not...

Linnea shook her head in response to Lena. She couldn't speak... she couldn't find the MEANS to speak. She did, however, push Lena's hand away with her gloved one. Her eyes were shut as tight as they could go, but there were still clear tears falling from the sides of them.

She could barely even hear what was going on around her. It all sounded like white noise.... well, at least in comparison to the chaos that was brewing in her head. She saw the clips of Chace, of other victims to this Castle, of murders and death here in the past, of cruel men and vicious women....and of a child. A little girl no older than eight or nine. She was a prominent figure in almost every memory...

Xade frowned; this whole getting thrown into the world of supernatural was a little much for him. He nearly jumped back at the figure of Kamau...or...a jaguar...sitting outside the door vigilantly. When he walked in, he glanced around and saw a mess. "What the hell happened....?" he murmured, just staring.

Braden brushed her hair away, his fingers lightly touching her face. "Whose dead, lass?" he asked, his ears able to pick up her voice. What had happened to her?

Greg instantly made his way to Linnea's side, not wanting to see her cry. "Lena... what is wrong with her?" he asked as Lena shrugged helplessly.

"I don't know... but she won't let me touch her. It's all mental Greg. She... she did something to help Keira. That much I can tell."

"She took the memories." he figured it out.

"What?"

"It is... nevermind." he muttered.

"I can take it from here, you might want to go explain things to your boyfriend." he told her as she blushed.

"You're always so fucking cryptic." she muttered, before getting up, and walking towards Xade. "Want to wait outside?" she asked him.

Xade stared at the room for a minute. Two incapacitated, hysterical girls, two guys, one confused, the other upset. This was mind-numbing.

He glanced to Lena, his boyish face looking thoroughly confused. He nodded absently to her. "Yeah... let's just...give them some air."

~~

Linnea tried to focus her thoughts on that little girl. She had bright blonde hair that was billowing around her shoulders...but the look on her face... it was...twisted. Dark. Evil, even. Her eyes were ebony and it practically burned to look into them.

Just as soon as they'd subsided, the flashes of the visions started again. Murder, suicide, torture... all of them happened here, in THIS Castle, in the past. The past was burning itself into her impressionable brain. Voices screamed at her to help them, to stop the pain. Others chanted dark words into the other ear, persuading her to end the pain for herself...

She did as Keira had, putting both hands on the side of her head. She pressed her palms as hard as she could against her head, trying to force her thoughts back in and to stop the screaming. It was agony. No wonder Keira was a mess. "Stop, stop, please..." She murmured in a lolled voice, words slurred. She brought her head, practically banging it, against the wall behind her, pressing harder with her palms. "Please.....I'll help...I'll do whatever..."

Keira shook her head and buried her face into his chest, "Chace..." she mumbled, her voice no louder than before, "I saw it happen...again and again...and that retched little girl." she rambled, squeezing her eyes shut as more tears fell.

Lena nodded as she led them to wait outside the door, sitting on the wall with a tired sigh. "Well... so much for their great idea tonight." she said as she heard a purr. She looked up to see Kamau there in his jaguar form, tail a twitching as he purred.

***

Greg looked at Linnea helplessly as she started to close into herself. "Linnea, Linnea come on, snap out of it." he told her, shaking her arm gently, wanting to grab her hand, but knowing one of them wasn't gloved. Which one didn't have a glove on it? Maybe... maybe he could wash out the nightmares with good memories, something to relax her mind....

***

"Chace?" Braden whispered, eyes going wide as he lost some color in his face. "Hey hey, it's alright, lass. You're safe again." he murmured, pulling her all the way into his lap as he kissed her temple soothingly. "She's gone, you're fine."

Xade glanced to the jaguar warily, "Er...hi...there....Kam, ole buddy. Heh." He looked a little nervous, edging away from him and over a little bit. He looked back to Lena and drew her into him, an arm comfortingly around her. "Hey, don't worry... I'm sure... I'm sure it's just... you know. It'll be okay. Besides. I think this enforces their brilliant plan even more...."

~~

Linnea shook her head violently, just leaving it against the wall. The voices were so loud! She couldn't hear anything....anything but them. She started to murmur in a language that wasn't English or Swedish, tears steadily falling from her tightly shut eyes.

Kam gave Xade a toothy grin which was meant to calm him down, but with how scary his teeth looked, it probably didn't do much good.

When Xade put an arm around her, Lena snuggled up tight to his side, letting her head rest on his chest. "I hope so. I don't want to stay in this Castle, Xade."

***

Greg frowned, feeling desperate now, as if he had no other choice. Then, taking both of her hands into his, he focused on happy memories. Good times he had with Braden, Kamau, and Aleine. His cousin's wedding, his grandmother teaching him how to cook. Learning American for the first time, and making an idiot out of himself trying to impress a girl. Anything that would get her to snap out of it.

Keira curled up against him, giving a big sniffle, "She's not gone..." she mumbled between sobs. She raised a shaky hand to her ear as she felt something warm and sticky run down the outer shell, "Why am I bleeding...?"
