"You…"

Elizabeth cried as she run out of the door. She leaned her body to the wall for some support. As she tears continue to drop like waterfalls, she soon loses the will to continue and ended up on the ground.

It started her when she hears the footstep fast approaching her. As she turned around to see the monster behind her, her face was all shaken and pale.

"I told you, it has nothing to do with me!" Elizabeth continues to cry her out heart. She couldn't understand why this person hates her so much. She can see deep within his eyes the flames of hatred burning everything they came face to face with each other.

"You think it has nothing to do with you, everything has something to do with you. Everything, everyone, they knee for you yet you show no care for them. Do you think because you controlled those people's heart you can take them away from me?" The cold and vicious voice echoed deep within Elizabeth as she continue to fear for her life.

"Who do you think you are? Why must you return?!?!"

Elizabeth couldn't answers and was puzzled by everything. Soon more footsteps arrived which brought light into Elizabeth.

"Professor, help!"

"Enough!" Professor Petrovich pulled the person standing in front of Elizabeth aside, "You yourself no she has no recollection of everything so why must you continue to torture her."

"Then I'll make her remember everything!"

"Make her remember what? She has no memory of what happened in the past, I removed piece of her memory back then because of that brats request!"

"That stupid brat why must he get involved."

"Professor…" Elizabeth cried as she tried to lift herself from the ground and run closer to the man.

Unfortunately, she didn't have the strength to walk further and soon loses balance of herself. But luckily, Professor Petrovich caught her on time before she fell on the ground.

"Enough, she is in no condition for you to do this. It was the brat's decision and it has nothing to do with her."

"Then, she'll live in h.e.l.l with us all. Until the day she realizes why her life belongs to me."

"Her life never belongs to you and you know that!" Professor Petrovich raised his voice as he found what the person was speaking of all nonsense.

Elizabeth wished to asked what they were talking about but didn't have the energy. Only her mind was able to continue…

Live in h.e.l.l…

Her Life…

Belong to him…

She couldn't understand all those simple words and why they mean so much to her but why it felt so much pain as well. As she was about to utter some words, another voice came from behind.

"Enough, Professor take her out. The brat is looking for you…"

With Elizabeth reaming strength she raised her head to face the person who just arrived. AS the silhouette of the person became clear in her mind, it was not long when everything turned black but the image of the person continue to imprint deep within her mind as she mumble.

"Scott."

In the quiet and empty room, Elizabeth was resting peacefully when the dream she was having come to an end. Her eyes pop wide awake as she recalled ever y detailed of it.

"Scott?" She muttered the last word she recalled.

At the same time, Jo came back to check on her. He was surprised to see how wide awake she looked but with such troubling expression on her face.

"Girlie, you're awake, what seems to be the problem?" He asked as he slowly made his way to her.

"Scott."  She spoke.

"Scott? Yeah, what about him?" Jo asked curiously as to why the girl suddenly became interested about the person they were looking for.

"Scott." She repeated the same word.

Jo was confused as to why she kept saying Scott's name. He couldn't understand why up until it struck him. "You know him? Don't tell me you know him? Did you recall your memory about him? Tell me? Do you know where we can find him?"

"Scott." Elizabeth only repeated his name once again.

"Alright, you did recover your memory about him. So tell me, where can we find him? I've been trying to find information about him but it seems he vanished as well just like the professor." Jo explained but was interrupted when Elizabeth spoke again.

"Scott."

"Girlie, what's wrong with you? Why do you keep mention Scott's name. Alright, you don't know him you haven't recall him at all. But can you at least tell me why you keep mentioning his name. You're freaking me out already." Jo was almost at his limited and collapse on the bed and seated in front of Elizabeth as he stared directly at her eyes.

"I know him." Elizabeth turned her attention to Jo as she looked him directly as well.

"Then that good, so you recall him already. That great, what memory did you recall? I mean, do you remember what he looks like?" He asked as he eagerly waits what the girl has to say.

"I have." Elizabeth nodded her head in respond to Jo's question. "He's my friend."

Jo did not know what Elizabeth meant by friend. He thought maybe she was referring to how they were in the past. "Well, from what Megan said, weren't you more like brother and sister. I mean, you did grow up under the professor care and despite he hated you for being such a spoiled and show off he cared so much for you."

"No!" Elizabeth shook her head in denial to all what Jo was saying. "He's my friend."

"Girlie, calm down." He said seeing how fl.u.s.tered Elizabeth looked.

When she felt his hand touched her shoulder, her body jolted from the shock as soon snap back to her sense. She looked weirdly and confusedly at Jo wonder what just happened.

"Jo?" She said dumbfounded as to why he looked so worriedly at her.

"Hey, girlie are you alright? You've been acting strange lately?" Jo said as he removed his hand from the girl's shoulder.

"Jo, what happened? Why are…" Elizabeth was surprised she was in bed and that her cloths were all changed. She looked at Jo for some answer which caused Jo to panic.

"Hey, hey, wait a minute, I didn't have any choice. It was either you ending up getting sick or I… Anyways, you fell asleep in the bath with your clothes on. Hey, wait a second, girlie, why were you in the tub anyway with you clothes on." Jo asked seeing it as an opportunity to change the subject and hope to escape the hot seat.

"I was?" Elizabeth looked bewildered.

"Yes, if I didn't come in, the whole bathroom would have turned into a hot spring already. Tell me, what happened, what do you remember?" Jo inquired and realized something strange is indeed happening to Elizabeth.

"To tell you the truth, I can't recall anything at all. I swear, the last thing I remember was running to my room and when I was soaking myself I felt…" Elizabeth recalled how her body felt so relax then, as if all the strain her was carrying were all lifted away.

"Girlie, do you remember anything else?" Jo curiously inquired.

"Like what?" Elizabeth asked.

"Like if you talked to someone?" He said.

Elizabeth thought deep but couldn't remember talking to anyone at all. She has been distant with the word and has not spoken to anyone apart from Jo. Apart from short conversation with the guards who greets her now and then, apart from Jo she hasn't made conversation with anyone.

"Do you recall seeing someone in your room?"

"In my room?" Elizabeth repeated the question.

"Yes, when I came to check on you, you mumble as if you were talking to someone at present. What alarmed me was the fact you were speaking as if it was happening at that moment. It was not like how you before, when you regain your memory you would never mumble like that." Jo explained his concerns and wonder if Elizabeth was understand what he was talking about.

"I don't understand what you mean?" Elizabeth responded confused with all the information Jo was trying to explain.

"Nevermind then," Jo said as he forget about the topic and suddenly recalled something important again. "By the way, what were you doing by the elevator earlier?" Jo asked.

"Like I said, I…" As Elizabeth was about to explain, she couldn't remember once again what happened.

"You were what?" Jo asked.

"I was…" Elizabeth thought hard but still couldn't remember at all. "I was…"

"I knew it…" He said.

"Knew what?" Elizabeth asked.

"I have a feeling someone was playing with her mind, but I don't know how they did it. I went to check the surveillance earlier and it was strange as to why you would stand by the elevator for such a long time. I have a feeling that the person you spoke to change the footage as well."

"What do you mean?"

"You were standing by the elevator for thirty whole minutes or so yet you can't even recall anything that happened. When I called out for your name, it looks as if you were so exhausted…"

"I did felt that, that's why I went ahead and took a shower, I was feeling quite drained for no reason." Elizabeth explained.

"Anyways, do you remember anything in the past which brought you such feeling? I mean, maybe the person who approached you today has something to do with your past and is a member of the underground society which mean we are no longer safe her and we better find another place to stay." Jo explained

"I'm sorry, but I can't recall anything of such happening. Like I said, I haven't recovered most of my memory. All I know is that the professor was the one who removed my memory and he has done it a couple of time before I even stayed in the society." Elizabeth sighs as she could recalled most of the recent memories she recovered.

"You mean you already knew the before a long time ago? When and why don't people know of such event?" Jo asked.

"I'm not sure but a while ago before I woke up. I had this dream of a person who showed so much hatred towards me, he said my life does not belong to me and I must live in h.e.l.l with him. But nothing happened since the professor came and…"

Elizabeth suddenly recalled why she woke up then. "Scott!"

Jo was perplexed as to why she started mentioning Scott's name once again. "Yeah, you told me about him so many times. Yes, both of you are friend, but like I said, both of you were known as brother and sister. I don't understand why you keep calling out his name for."

"No, you don't understand, I know him, I know who he is." Elizabeth answered with such surprised look on his face.

"You know him? How do you know him? Girlie, your confusing me." Jo starches his head confused and dumbfounded seeing how excited Elizabeth looked.

"He was my cla.s.smate when I was in university, I have a feeling the Scott you're looking for could be the same Scott I know back then. Also, the Scott in my past has the same exact face as the Scott I know now. He was one of my closes friends and…"

"What's wrong, why did you stop?" Jo asked.

"He's not my friend but my brother; he did not study in university because he wanted to. He did it to protect me… He knew, he knew that one day I'll…"

Jo was taken aback when Elizabeth started crying out of nowhere.

"Hey, girlie calm down, what are you on about."

"Scott, he came to protect me all this time. It was the brat, I have the feeling, the brat you keep talking about, I have a feeling he has something to do as to why Scott followed me all this years."

"You mean they knew all along you weren't dead and play shadow to protect you?"

"Yes, it means, what happened in the past, could have nothing to do with me? I mean, why would they protect me if they knew how cruel I was back then? Doesn't that make sense at all? It could only mean, someone is after my life, someone set me up back then. Which is why all of this is happening now?"

Jo bother about the entire thing Elizabeth just stated, if Scott was sent back then to protect her it just mean the person after Elizabeth is someone as powerful as Scott's family. Which means, there life is in danger and sooner or later they are too meeting the person.

"Girlie, let me ask you this? Do you know where we can find Scott?" Jo asked.

"I remember he has a villa in Spain where he used to run away from people. He said: it was one of his special hiding places since it was a rundown castle which he renovated and since it located in a rural area no one hardly goes there."

"Then let's go."
