The cellars seemed different now, frightening. Megan clung to James as they made their way down.

James felt great being there now that he was clean, it made the whole place seem so worthless. "Be strong" he said softly.

*Pina heard footsteps coming down the tunnel to the house, and crept toward them silently. For someplace that was suppoesed to be well protected, according to her father, people tended to show up uninvited quite often. She caught sight of the man- a ridiculous, pompous looking fellow in a stupid wig.*
"You're not supposed to be-"
*When she caught sight of the woman, though, her mouth fell open, and she froze. It wasn't possible. It couldn't be possible.*

James almost growled What kind of monster would allow a child to think it's mother was dead?

*She reluctantly took a step toward her mother, a slight frown on her face. It all seemed so surreal... And she should be feeling happy, shouldn't she? And she was... but a there was a nagging thought that she tried to push away as she went to Megan's arms.*
She's going to take me away...

Megan lifted Pina's veil and kissed her forehead.
"Oh, honey..."

((She doesn't wear it around the house. )) *She smiled at her mother, and tried to push back tears of an emotion she couldn't name.*
