Iris walked up to the inner temple. "Oh," she remarked, "the lamp's not on." She lit the lamp in the garden. "It's nice to be able to see again." she smiled. "Now, let's see what Feenie's doing." She was warming up to the prospect of having a secret meeting. It was a lot more fun breaking the rules when she had very little chance to do that. However, the events previously still shook her psyche. "Why couldn't Feenie have chosen a less creepy place to meet?" she wondered as she walked to the front entrance. She began to open the door.

The woman stood in the shadow of the chamber corner, noisy as death, and watched her mirror image wander in, a clearly confused look on her face. She waited patiently for Iris to reach the center of the room before speaking to her.

"Good evening, little sister. It's been such a long time, how have you been?" Her voice lacked even a hint of warmth normally associated with such words. The pistol in her hand aimed at the recipient of the greeting certainly wasn't going to improve the friendliness in the atmosphere.

Iris choked. Looking at Dahlia's face made her freeze. She had this dream before... only now, it was very different. Dahlia was wearing different clothes... and it was less dark... but this was real. Well, so were the dreams, and--

Iris's mind races between such thoughts at a rapid fire pace as her heart rate increased quickly. She stood there with a stupid look on her face, blood visibly pumping into her eyes, with an ever running mind, yet still frozen in place.

Leon waited at the side of the door. His gun was in his hand, concealed by his robe. He waited..either for Iris to try to escape, or for Dahlia's call.

..and thats what I intend to give her.

"What, you don't have anything to say to me? After I came all this way? I'm hurt."

She motioned in Leon's direction with her free hand. "See the gentleman with the mask over there? You're going to offer your phone to him, and he's going to take it."

Iris realized that while she should try to resist Dahlia, she would not do anyone any good if she got hurt. She took her phone out of her robes, and held it out in front of her. She closed her eyes and turned her head away. Every time she saw that face, she felt so guilty for helping her in her crimes. She was close to tears.

Leon stepped forward with one hand outstreched for the phone. The other hand he pulled out of his robe, revealing the pistol. He said nothing but waited for Iris to hand over the phone. He took the phone from her hand and put it in his robe. He still remigned silent.

..and thats what I intend to give her.

"Just take it, Leon," Dahlia snapped, rolling her eyes.

After he did so, she exhaled loudly and slipped her gun back into her robe. "I'm sorry about that, sister," she said, not sounding very sorry at all. "With your track record, it's hard for me to trust you. You understand, right?" the medium smiled as she approached the petrified girl.

"You haven't said a word since you got here. Aren't you happy to see me?"

Iris began to cry. "Why... why can't you just be at ease! It's bad enough knowing that you had to die in such a way. Why must you always reassure me that you can never be at peace on the other side? I worried about you from the day you left this world. I thought that... maybe, you could finally be happy and rest." Iris raised her voice. "Please, sister, rest! Why can't you let yourself go?!?"

"I don't think you'll be needing that right now," Dahlia hinted at Leon.

She turned back to Iris, tilted her head. "Happy? After everything that's happened, you want me to be happy?" she scoffed. "Tell me, little sister, what exactly should I be happy about?"

Iris started, "I didn't say anything about being happy." Her voice dropped lower, and gained a bit of a mean edge often exclusive to Dahlia. However, she is her identical twin, so it's not inconceivable that she can imitate her. "I mean that you have already caused so much pain and suffering to countless people. Aren't you satisfied yet?"

Dahlia's eyes flared, and without warning, she slapped her twin across the mouth. "I did not come here to be lectured by a spineless little traitor like you! You of all people want to preach about inflicting pain and suffering on others? You haven't forgotten the way you backed out of the kidnapping incident at the last second and forced Valerie and I to improvise the plan, have you? Or what about the necklace? How you begged and pleaded with me to let you get it back? I believe you said you wanted to 'save me'? I gave you half a year, so what did you do with it? You used MY face and MY name to have your little romantic fling with your darling 'Feenie'! I could have taken that necklace back myself in the first place, but you said you wanted to 'save me'!"

She waved her hands up and down her borrowed form. "Well? Do I look 'saved' to you?! You chose some man over me! Over your twin sister! Your flesh and blood! And because of that, because of you, I'm dead!"

Iris tried to have strength, as she had not been able to years before. She tried to respond, and to stand up to her sister, but she only went dizzy, with her head pushing and pulsing. Suddenly, her thoughts focused on what she said. "Your darling Feenie," "some stupid boy," and Iris remembered that Phoenix's cell phone had been the one to text message her. Iris grew a horrified look on her face. "You... you've killed him too, haven't you?"

"Hmm? Oh, you mean the message? No, no no..." Dahlia laughed, her rage dissipated. "Do you think I came here to tell you that? I wouldn't do something so cruel," she purred.

"No, he's still very much alive. For the moment. I just...borrowed his assistance..." Her hand caressed her sister's cheek gently. "That's why I'm here," she whispered sweetly. "To get your help."

Iris became less tense, but much more perplexed. "My help...?" she simply asked. She felt a lingering sensation in the back of her mind that she would regret this. But, she wasn't exactly in control now.

Leon stood at the door checking to make sure no body came and to make sure Iris did not leave. He looked at Iris's phone, seeing the message Dahlia sent. Then he shrugged and put it back into his robe.

..and thats what I intend to give her.

"That's right, your help," Dahlia confirmed in her honeyed voice. "You see, I hadn't expected to be called back to this world, and after I leave this time, I probably never will be again. Once I realized I had been given one final opportunity to resolve my unfinished business, do you know what one of the first things that came to my mind was? I thought, 'Why, I'll bet my poor little sister is still drowning in guilt after stabbing me in the back and sentencing me to my death and so on. I should really give her a chance to clear her conscience!' So here I am to give you that chance.

"It's really a very simple favor, Iris. All I want you to do is come with me to Kurain and get Phoenix away from Maya Fey for a while. You can go to the amusement park, take in a movie, rent a hotel room, whatever you'd like so long as you let Maya and I have some private time. See, you get to make things right with your big sister and have a date with your darling boyfriend all at the same time! Sound good?"

Iris grew a sick feeling in her stomach. "You're just going to kill her when we leave! And how do I know you just won't kill us at the amusement park, or wherever we go?!?" She felt sick from remembering Valerie. The pain in her stomach was a bitter mix of love and hatred for the reflection in front of her. "How can I trust you, Dollie?"

Leon cocked his pistol. He took it out of his robe but put it to his side. "...Iris. Trust or Distrust, your not in the position to choose.." He said calmly.

..and thats what I intend to give her.

"How can you trust me..." Dahlia repeated thoughtfully. "There's another ironic question."

She folded her hands behind her and gave her twin what she hoped would be a reassuring smile. "I won't kill you, dear sister, because I don't want to kill you. Think about it for a moment. You're out here in the middle of nowhere, in the middle of the night, alone and with no way to call for help. If I wanted you dead, you would be already."

"I...I...I...." she stammered in fear of Leon, who seemed to her to be ready to fire. "You.. you really won't hurt anyone? I only want you to be able to be happy without hurting other people... What will you do?" She began to sweat, as the threat from Leon made her very nervous coupled with Dahlia's threat. She was looking at Leon.

Dahlia followed her sister's gaze to her 'bodyguard' and shot an angry glare at him. "I told you that wasn't needed. Quit scaring her more than she already is.

"But more importantly..." she continued, turning back to Iris, "...when did I say I wouldn't hurt anyone? I said I wouldn't hurt you." She paced around her sister, seemingly in a daze as she spoke. "You see, when Mia Fey sent me to prison, she took away the most precious thing in the world to me. My life. It's only fair that I return the favor, but that clearly isn't an option anymore, so I'll settle for the next best thing. That's all I want. After that, I'll be able to retire to a peaceful rest at last."

"But Maya is innocent of anything! I can't help you with this! I can't send one spirit to rest while sending my cousins, half sister, and best friend into torture. Why must others suffer for you to be happy?" She choked on her words a bit, trying to choose them more carefully. "I couldn't clear my conscious helping you and hurting all those people."

"You see, that's always been your problem, Iris. You think we live in a happy fantasy land, where everyone is nice to each other, nobody ever has to get hurt, and you never have to sacrifice something to get something in return. That's not reality."

Dahlia paused to stare at nothing in particular. "Perhaps you'd like to tell me what I should do to be happy."

Iris stood still, trying to be brave. It's because she couldn't stand up to her before that so many horrible things happened... now she thought it was time for her to bite the bullet. "I can't do that. Even for you. It's because I was too timid to stand up to you that you continued down that path, and so many people were hurt. You're right, this isn't a happy world. But I can't stand making it that way any longer!" Iris was incredibly scared, but putting on a brave face. She was terrified by what she had said, but she believed what she said, and remembered Phoenix, who fought for justice regardless of anything. She was doing this for him.

Leon smiled under his mask. It was an invisible smile, but in a way you could feel it. He turned to Dahlia Then he said "...Alright she stood her ground, lets move on to plan B." Then he turned back to Iris. "However is something were to happn to your Feenie...around his neck or twords his wrist...maybe even, god forbid, something involving a bullet...at least you did the right thing."

..and thats what I intend to give her.

"...I'm disappointed, sister. I believe you misunderstood me earlier, though. I didn't say I came to ask for your help, I said I came to get it. Whether you're willing to give it or not has no bearing on the end result."

Her face and voice revealed no emotion of any sort as she turned back to Iris. "Leon, there should be some rope in that dresser. Tie her up, but try to be gentle. She's family, after all."

Iris remained silent and still. She thought, "So be it. If I am forced at least my conscious can rest. I really hope though that I can contact Mr. Wright. I'll just have to wait for an opportunity, and impede her at every way. Even though she has gone through so much pain... but that is my fault. I must atone... and I must stop her, somehow!" She would not resist to being tied up, as she could do nothing about it. At times like this, she wished she could have gained her sister's manipulative ability...

Leon took out the rope and tied up Iris. He handed her phone to Dahlia. "..Iris' phone. What are we going to do with her?" He pointed to Iris. He was still willing to do whatever Dahlia was planning so he was ready, as he always was. He looked back at Iris but felt no sympathy.

..and thats what I intend to give her.

Dahlia took the phone and slid it into her robe. She walked to the iron gate seperating the Sacred Cavern from the rest of the temple and swung it open.

Leon picked Iris up, his gun in his left hand so no smart little girls would try to take it from him. He put her down in the cavern and then looked at Dahlia. "...were locking her in there, with the sub-zero temperature?"

"You know, that's a good point..." Dahlia raided the dresser for a couple spare robes and wrapped them around Iris' bound form. "You'll be fine until we get back, Rissy."

She left the Cavern, then sealed the door with a trick lock. "Alright, I guess the first thing we're going to have to do is kill Wright..."

Iris struggled with the ropes and glared at her sister as she put the robes around her, shutting her in the cavern. She heard the clicks of the locks being set up. She yelled as hard as she could hoping it would get through the door "You wont get away with this Dahlia!" then she sighed trying to figure a way out. Untill she heard her sister say she was going to Kill Wright. She started struggling violently but it would take a long time to get these ropes off, if she could even get them off at all..
