The Jade Dagger - A Pirate Adventure [Roleplay]

[Myst]

"Well, she must've believed me if she left... I don't know why else she would just suddenly leave..."

 

[Naiad]

I bite my lip. "... Holly also told me that, rather than Faye running away, Holly abandoned her."

 

[Myst]

I glance at her, growing confused. "Strange... Wait... Faye, do you remember if Holly was home when you left?"

I bite my lip, looking down. "Can we please not talk about this right now?"

 

[Naiad]

"Hm..."

I sigh. "Guess we'll just need to figure it—"

My eyes widen. "That's it!" I clap my hands together.

 

[Myst]

I tilt my head curiously and ask, "What's it?"

 

[Naiad]

"The box... Holly's box."

 

[Myst]

"Holly has a box?"

I sigh. Guess they won't let this drop...

(Plot twist: Faye's cousin dressed up as Faye's mom and interrogated Asher on what happened.)

- - - Post Merge - - -

I allow myself to remember. Wait... she had been gone for a few days when I finally got the nerve to leave... but then... how does Asher's story make sense...? He couldn't be lying, could he...?

(and the whole sending her away lie was told to Asher by "Faye's mom" when Asher was wondering why she cared so much where she went. There it all makes sense now.)

 

[Naiad]

"... Yeah." I shake my head. "Something's not right here..."

I glance at Faye. "Faye, what do you remember..?"

 

[Myst]

"Something strange is going on... I wonder what..."

I sigh. "I hadn't paid much attention to it before but... she was gone for a few days before I left..."

 

[Naiad]

I nod slowly. "... If that's the case, someone's been screwing around with us."

 

[Myst]

"I wonder who..."

Someone bursts through the front door. "I'm here!" Two guards trail behind her. Oh, god... what is she doing here...?

 

[Naiad]

I glance up.

**** everything.

 

[Myst]

She smirks. "Did you miss me?"

She sees Catherine and runs up to pull her into a hug. "It's been so long, 'cuz. How have you been?"

"Perfectly fine. Let me go." I pull myself from her embrace.

"That wasn't very nice of you."

(added color bc it makes things easier)

 

[Naiad]

"..."

... Something is really off here.

 

[Myst]

"Well, she's alive. Do you believe me now?"

"Yes." She turns her attention back to Catherine. "Where's mother?"

I bite my lip. ...what do I say...?

 

[Naiad]

Mother..?

"Suicide. Killed herself." I state bluntly.

 

[Myst]

She glares at the woman. "I didn't ask you."

I sigh. "Stop this. She's Faye's mother. She was never yours."

Tears start to form as the memories rush back.

 

[Naiad]

I shrug. "It's the truth."

 

[Myst]

I resist the urge to wipe away Faye's tears. Damnit... I have to get her away from this crazy woman.

I run upstairs and go through the first door I can grab my hands on.

(Teddy. go.)

She rolls her eyes. "Look. You scared her. Anyways, let's get down to business, shall we?"

 

[Naiad]

... Damnit... I can't take her down.
If only Scott were here...

I sigh inwardly.
