“Hey, Willow. Nice dress.”

"Yes, it's nice and flowy, isn't it? And white too, perfect for showing blood."

Scarlet blanched for a second. “Yes, Good for intimidation.”, she bluffed, leading Willow over to the others.

Harper finally opened the box. She pulled out the book that was inside of it. The book held pictures, letters, dried flowers, anything that they could put in it. She fingered it carefully and silently.

"Who said anything about intimidation?" Willow asked, twirling so her dress would flow, "I meant blood. Your blood. Is it true what they say, that your blood isn't red? That you're a monster, just like the queen?" Willow held out her hand to Scarlet, smiling, "Would you like a bite?"

“Willow, no!” Chelsea scolded, taking Willow’s hand, “Don’t do that!”

Willlow giggled, "Why not? I was only asking." she turned back towards Scarlet, "I can't wait to die tonight."

Chelsea winced, she didn’t want to think about that.

Scarlet was frozen to the spot. Without hesitation, she took out her knife, shoved her sleeve up, and carved a long gasp into her skin. Red blood spilled over. “Happy?”, she snarled at Willow.

"Chelsea-Friend?" Willow smiled and pulled some flowers from her hair and put them on Chelsea's hair, "The flowers hold secrets, y'know. They whisper to me." she put a finger to her lips, "They tell me that there's going to be blood tonight. And," she gave a flourish with her hand, "that I'm going to go crazy sooner than I think."

Willow smiled at Scarlet, "Ooh, Scarling, you have red blood." she licked Scarlet's arm, taking in the blood and licked her lips, "Not as tasty as I thought it would be."

Harper dropped the box and the book on the bed quickly. "Scarlet!" She darted to her friend.

Willow looked at the girl, "I know you. The girl with the blood. But you're not covered in it now, are you?" she giggled, "Blood, blood, blood. I'm going insane, you know that, right?" Willow sighed, "It's too bad you didn't know me before." a tear dripped from Willow's eye, "I liked to garden."

Chelsea brushed the flowers that Willow put in her hair.

“Willow, do you want to garden? I can bring you to your garden.” Chelsea said, holding out her hand.

"I can't garden." Willow whispered, "I can't, I can't, I can't!" she crumpled on the floor, like a dead flower, whimpering, "It doesn't help me anymore."

Scarlet stepped back in shock, clutching her injured arm as saliva mixed with her blood.

Chelsea frowned, she started to give up.

Harper wanted to scream. But she couldn't. Not here. "Umm….guys…..I'll be right back." With that she raced down the hall and into another soundproof room. She closed the door and screamed. She screamed so loudly that her voice went hoarse. Then she slumped against the wall and cried.

"It's happening isn't it?" the sane side was winning, at least, currently. Willow turned towards Scarlet and Chelsea and the blood girl, "Please, forgive my behavior. It won't be long until I've completely-" Willow sobbed, "gotten devoured by insanity." she stood up, "Chelsea-Friend, I can't live like this. You've picked out the knife, right?"

Wow, Harper is seriously sad right now. What happened?

Chelsea shook her head.
