*counters, still whispering, but more vicious than before*
You think I said that because I want you to pity my dramatic little breakdown? This isn't a game *adds, smirking cruelly* at least, not to me it isn't. I understand how annoying your muggle obsessed parents must be, and that's really just a shame that they meddle with such scum, but I don't think that exactly measures up to the fact that my parents decided not to come looking for me when i disappeared off the planet to protect their damn pride.
And now what am I going to do? Kill them. Why? Because I was told towhen i started this. And now I'm going to break Aaron's heart, that if, if I don't end up making it stop beating first like my parents. Don't you get it Holly? I don't want a little communication system! I just want to keep him safe!
*feels a strange sensation in her throat that she doesn't recognize*

*realizes her eyes are beginning to swell and looses much of her confidence, realizing she fooled herself thinking she was prepared to face Valley*
But if you refuse to talk to him, he'll come back; he'll come back looking for you because he's worried. You said he's done it before! Or maybe he knows, maybe he has the idea, or even just the hint of one, that you would....do that.

Shhh!
*stares at her knees, buries her face in her hands*
*looks up at Holly again, still with an empty gaze*
He's Aaron. His suspicions are law. He's always right in the long run.... But that's not the point, I'm not getting him killed, by me or anyone else. If they find him they will kill him. If they tell me to kill him, I will.
*watches herself from afar, wondering who it is controlling her body, wondering if it really was her...*
Why don't you just go? Go protect him. Be me for him. He loves you. I have nothing to offer him, you do.
*thinks for a moment*
If you can get out of this, get out. *knows/hopes she understands what she's talking about*

*shakes her head slowly*
No matter how much he loves me, he loves you more. You are giving me more power than I have.
*twists an invisible ring around her finger*
*stands*
Is it really that bad? Are they all this bad? What if you and your family just fell trough the cracks, what if you are the exception? No one would-*lowers her voice* commit if it was this bad.

*shakes her head*
No, it's not that bad for me as I make it sound. *snaps back into reality, i.e. not herself at all* I agree with everything I'm doing and I want to do it, even if it takes... hard work and so on. It's just hard on the family level for me. I'm just saying I wouldn't suggest it to anyone who cares about their past or future very much.
*glares at her* It's not "bad," the people aren't "bad" their smart! Everything they do and believe is true and genius - it's just a very difficult change from life before and after. You are very easily swayed Holly. Don't freak yourself out because of my insanity.
*wonders mildly if she's losing her mind*

*stands agape for a second, stunned by what seems to her a 180*
Um....right. Obviously you've presented two sides of the same coin, or maybe the same side---but I haven't been swayed....I'm just asking questions. I came here for something, and I didn't get it, so yes, I think I will be going.
But are you sure? Are you sure there's nothing to tell him? Couldn't you just say you are out of the area or something? I bet he'd be to sleep better.

*laughs and stands up, letting a sickly sweet smile flash across her face, finally talking in a normal voice*
No just tell him I said hi and I'll be around Flourish and Blotts next week. *goes back to whisper-mode* I'm not lying to him like that. It'll be better if he knows I'm still around where he can find me.
*says "normally" again*
Look, sorry I freaked *means it, just not the stupid tone of voice* I just get a little... overwhelmed.

I...well, I guess I understand. I'll tell him. Bye Valley. Be safe.

*Alecto hears the door downstairs shut and walks down the stairs*
Well..How is your little friend Valley? Not causing you any trouble i hope?
*She walked past her into the den where she took her seat in front of the fire again. She waved her wand making a bottle of wine and two glasses appear. She looked behind her, motioning for her to come into the room.*
Come dear. Sit and tell me whats bothering you. You've been acting strange of late. There seems to be a reason behind this..and i'll have no secrets in my house dear.

*sighs as Holly leaves and jumps when she hears Alecto*
*focusing on inhaling and exhaling normally and follows Alecto into the room*
*sits down and listens, wondering how she was going to explain this. Sure, she had done things she was definately not going to tell Alecto, but there were.... other things going on lately. Things she couldn't quite explain*
*thinks for a moment, letting her guard down more than usual*
Well, I've been feeling a little... odd lately. I'm not quite sure, I just can't seem to control myself, what I think and how I feel. I suddenly very worried or hyper, and I can't stop it or change it. Not necessarily a bad thing, just... odd.
*sighs and admits things she feels she shouldn't*
But lately, it's mostly been scared. I just get so frightened and paranoid easily, and everytime I'm around someone, I don't know if I'll feel the same way about them as I did before. Like with Holly. I was so defensive today, but usually it's quite friendly.
*right now the only way Valley felt was childish. pathetic*

*hands Valley a drink*
Yes..that is a bit odd. Well dear...now is the time to calm down. Have a drink. Empty your head of eveything and just stop thinking. Then..it will be easier to focus on things.

*Oh good, more drinking into calmness, that really helped the last time Valley... her conscience told her bitterly*
*she smiled weakly at Alecto, shutting her head up, and took a sip of the drink Alecto handed her*
Thank you, I'm sure I'll be normal again soon. *she laughed lightly, as if this were a funny little phase*
It's just a strange time for me, that's all.
*she sighed and then glanced out the window*

Oh Dear...you'll never be normal..theres no such thing...Your a witch..and a gofted one or I wouldn't have taken you on. Its a strange time for all. I've never been seperated from my brother this long...and im worried about him.
*Alecto took another sip of her drink.*
Is there...something else you wish to tell me. You can trust me you know...I wont tell your secrets.

*Valley took another swig from her glass, looking at Alecto while she talked, wondering about Amycus also*
*replies surely*
I have no secrets, well...
*she grinned uncharacteristically*
No secrets that I'm keeping from you that is.

*Alecto grinned back at her young apprentice. She refilled her glass looking back to the fire.*
Then...all is well.
