She sighed as she sat next to Greyson, who was asking the wise and generous Ruby some questions. Adora and Layla were still outside - and if the latter would act like [i]that[/i], keep her there. Britney wasn't sure if she was just sprung off that Greyson-D, but she could see where he came from with some of these questions. Britney still wanted the alliance, though it was not up to her. Though, [i]nobody[/i] could have guessed what happened next when a portal opened right at Jack and a strange Apparition appeared. Britney hopped to her feet, readying the Noble Vow for combat. There was something familiar about the Apparition, but God knew Britney was tired of weird shit following them around. A chain drifted towards Britney - but Linqian quickly stepped on it. Britney knew she didn't want to destroy her clothes (even though Bean was here and willing to make her some [i]for free[/i]). [quote=The Apparition][color=916BB4][b]“... Alizée. Alizée Vul.”[/b][/color][/quote] Britney's jaw dropped. She almost fell on her ass. It was Alizee... Well, her Apparition, of course. Britney was surprised as they come, though she was more surprised she didn't run into more Apparitions of their fallen Coven sisters and brothers. Why now? Why [i]here?[/i] And why was everyone and their grandmother so obsessed with that stupid Apparition?! [quote=Linqian][color=CD5C5C]”I am so fucking sick of this shit. That fucking shadow testicle keeps causing fucking problems when we're fucking dying, and have had it up to fucking here with it. Just fuck off. The fucking testicle isn’t here.”[/color][/quote] [color=f4eb93]”Girl [b][i]I[/i][/b] should be saying that!”[/color] Britney shouted, turning towards Linqian. The Coven, naturally, dogpiled "Alizee," and the Apparition surrendered. [color=f4eb93][i]If only the real Alizee had that much sense.[/i][/color] [quote=Alizee][color=916BB4][b]“I don't know what you mean by me not being Alizée. Of course I'm Alizée. But I… I don't remember much. I’m… well, I'm new.”[/b][/color][/quote] Britney took a few steps forward. [color=f4eb93]”... You are Alizee, but at the same time, you're [i]not[/i] Alizee,”[/color] Britney began her explanation. [color=f4eb93]”You're not [i]our[/i] Alizee. Alizee Alteri was shot to death by the Wolfpack, then the Hound took what he needed, and the leftover consciousness, psyche, and memories, formed an entirely new being and, well...”[/color] Britney trailed off, shrugging. [color=f4eb93]”... [i]Became you[/i].”[/color] [quote=Alizee][color=916BB4][b]“I'm sorry for jumping you. You're my first lead in a long time, and I… got excited. Anxious. My entire existence depends on the Void Heart. I don't remember much of who they were, I just know they're important. And that I need to find them. Wouldn’t you do the same for those you love? Please… I don't want to fight you. Just… give me a second chance. I can help you.”[/b][/color] [/quote] Britney snorted. [color=f4eb93]”Girl! You came in here with the chain bondage off jump!”[/color] Britney started, sassily putting a hand on her hip, [color=f4eb93]”At least give us a safe word!”[/color] Though, Britney was only trying to add some levity to the situation. Britney's face went flat as she continued, [color=f4eb93]”I'm not going to tell the group what they should or should not do: we have many problems right now, and I don't think anyone wants to add to it."[/color] Britney nodded her head. [color=f4eb93]”But what exactly do you remember? Do you remember anyone else other than Voidy? Does the name [i]Britney Williams[/i] ring a bell? What about... [i]Jack Hawthorne?[/i]”[/color]
