I wanted to half kill Jason, half love him forever. "He's not coming."

"WHAT?!"

"They don't believe it. Any of it."

"God! That's it. If you want to do something, you gotta do it yourself." She walks over and rips off my necklace.

"No."

"Shut her up. I'm getting them here if it kills me." One of the man's hand covers my mouth. "Alright, let's see how you work this." She puts it on her neck and it glows. "Ah, here we go."

"MHHH!"

"Shut up. Alright." The necklace starts glowing again.

"Hey, Jason? Freedom? Miss me? ... Yep, now, I need to make a deal with you. Either you come to the courtyard, or, well, Ashes may actually be in ashes."
