Almost like a guardian, that's how Wu was.

Though Jack still hadn't fully left me alone, I still felt sadness in my heart.

Two days ago, Jack has shredded the only thing my brother gave me right before his death.

My ribbon.

I felt my hair, which was now down.

Slowly and sadly, I walked to the Main Hall.

Some hunters stared at me, but at this point I didn't care.

My eyes traveled around and saw a perfect chair in the corner.

I sat down happily and started thinking.

My ribbon... I can't make another one...

"Are you feeling troubled?" A familiar voice asked.

"No, not really," I replied with a sigh.

A soft hand patted my shoulder, Michiko.

I looked up and she held her fan in front of her face.

"There is nothing the matter with me, so there is no point in wasting your time with me," I say and adjusted my position.

Michiko seemed to look disappointed, but she walked away.

I saw a familiar white figure at the table, and they were playing with something.

A smile formed on my face, as I got up.

"Hey!" I say to White.

He gasped and used its umbrella to cover what he is doing.

"H-hello Joseph!" He said.

White was usually never shy.

"Next time please don't surprise me like that..." White muttered, and quickly slid his hand under his umbrella.

WU CHANG'S POV

Thankfully he didn't notice.

Joseph shrugged it off, and walked away.

I sighed.

'You could have told him,' Black said through the umbrella.

"And ruin the surprise? Never!" I say to him.

After I checked the room once more, no one was looking.

Bane was in a match, and so was Leo.

Michiko decided to cook a bit, Jack was no where to be found.

Joseph was sitting in the corner and gazing.

Violetta was spinning webs and making trinkets, while Hastur was sitting.

Smiley was tinkering with his rocket, and Yidhra was training her Followers.

Robbie was practicing with his powers and aim.

I slowly pulled out the golden ribbon.

My hands reached for the needle and started to sew it.

This was quite easy, thankfully our mother taught us many things.

'I'll admit it's pretty,' Black said.

"That's a fact, it's great that I found scraps of the ribbon, just enough to sew it back," I say.

After moments of silence, I was done!

"Done, now let's surprise him!" I say and held it behind my back.

I stood up and looked for Joseph.

He was no where!

'I bet that pervert got to him,' Black said furiously and took my place.

Immediately, Black started looking around.

JOSEPH'S POV

"Black isn't here to protect you now~" Jack said and tried pulled me in his room.

(Key word: TRIED)

I tugged back, "No! Someone help!" I yelled out.

Only silence answered me.

My heart started to ache as Jack continued on tugging me.

Then, I felt my hand slip, and we both tumbled backwards.

A piercing pain struck my back like a knife as I got up.

That's when I realized I was in, what I called it, Hell.

I could already tell Jack was grinning.

"We are alone at last~"

My hands started to grow shaky as Jack lifted me up bridal style.

Before he could go anywhere, he gave a sharp yelp.

Jack looked down and so did I.

We both saw a blade threatening to slit his throat.

"Put him down, now," a voice said solemnly, and Jack carefully put me down, and I saw Black.

Before anything else could happen, Jack turned and attacked, knocking me over and my head banged onto something, and every went black.
