Briar stood at the sidewalk of London, watching the muggles and cars zoom by. It was amazing at what muggles could do. She smiled slightly and turned to look behind her. She'd been doing that alot lately. Her aunt had been watching the kids, God bless her. She looked around her. She stood out, she'd gotten bangs back and dyed some of her hair blue. Something daring, that's what she wanted. She looked back at the cars and said, "Amazing.."

"That's not amazing anyone can do that..." I say from behind her. My eyes were sunk into my head, dripping of lack of sleep and crying. My face was paler than it ever was. I just look at her with my glazed over eyes not bothering to say another word. Why should I? She'd been gone for weeks without a word to me, why should I crawl back to her as if nothing ever happened.

Briar jumped and spun around at the sudden voice. "Um, hey Shelby," She said, shuffling her feet and looking down. She wasn't especting her to be here. Briar opened her mouth to try and explain why she hadn't been around but couldn't and closed it again. It was difficult to explain and by the looks of it, Shelby probably wouldn't listen anyway. "I..I'm sorry," She mumbled.

"Right." I say sitting down on the curb, not looking at her. Being gone for weeks did a total on me physically and emotionally. "You weren't there when my heart broke, when Andra tortured me with dark magic, or when I was in the hospital, and when I killed someone for protection." I look down at my hands. "YOU WEREN'T THERE!" I yell, holding back my tears slightly surprised I could still cry.

Briar looked at her for a moment, dumbstruck. Tortured? She thought to herself. "I-..I-" She couldn't say anything for a moment until she regained her composure, "I have reasons to be gone Shelby. I don't regret leaving and what's happened over these weeks are..indescribably horrible but there's nothing I can do." She looked down and wiped a stray tear. "If you want to talk, yell, or whatever at me. Fine. Just don't do it while nosy muggles are around."

"What could be worse than not seeing her husband and your best friend in weeks, being tortured for hours by someone who you thought was your friend, and your other best friend using Sectumsempra on you and running into my father on top of all this..." I say to her, feeling my tears running down my face.

Briar narrowed her eyes, "Not here," She said through clenched teeth. "I'll tell you if we can atleast go somewhere besides the streets of London."

"Fine where to?" I ask finally looking up at her.
[[haha, you like evil shelly so far?]]

Briar sighed and looked around for a moment, "There," She muttered, pointing to a muggle motel. It was old and looked rundown, so hardly any muggles would go in there.
{{Haha, yeah.}}

"Alright, help me up if you can do that." I say extending a cold hand to her.

Briar stared down at her for a moment before extending out her hand and grabbing onto hers, pulling her up as she did so.

"Thank you..." I say to her. "I'm not sure if he's even alive."

Briar said nothing, merely walked to the motel. She looked around at it and opened to door, walking in.

I glare at the back of her head. See, Rubi no one cares for you anymore. They all just use you... I shake my head a bit and follow her in. I find a chair and sit down.

"Can I have a room with 2 beds please?" Briar asked the odd looking muggle at the counter. He merely looks at her for a moment and she growls, pulling out some muggle money and throwing it at him. He smiles happily and hands her two keys. Briar looks back at Shelby and motioned her to come on. "Stupid muggles," She mumbled under her breath to herself.

"Don't insult them. I'm technically one as well Briar." I mutter under my breath not caring if she heard me or not.

Briar's upperlip curled as she continued down the hallway. She stopped at the room 204 and opened the door, walking in.

I walk in after her. "So, explain. Explain how your last few weeks have been worse then mine." I say staring at the mirror. I looked so awful, my hair limp, not shining as usual, my blue eyes dazed as if they were glazed.

"I didn't say my weeks have been worse Shelby," Briar muttered, running a hand through her hair. She turned to her, "I just have my reasons for going away. Like how my mom and my brother have passed away. Sorry if I'm not here to tend to your every fucking need!"

I look at her. The real Shelby inside was crying for her friend, but the outer shell just looked at her. "I'm sorry..." I say avoiding her eyes.

Briar looked down, "You aren't acting like yourself..what's happening to you Shelby?" She asked quietly. She wasn't acting like herself either, but that was because she lost her family, the ones she never said goodbye too. "Why are you acting this way?"

"I'm not Shelby!" I yell at her. "I'm Rubalyn..." I say coldly, looking back at the mirror, putting my hands through my hair with a smirk.
[[haha. lol]]

Briar's hand went subconciously into her pocket, her pale fingers gripping the wand tight. "No," She muttered, looking down. "Not again."
{{XD You're pure genius Jourdan, pure genius.}}

I look at her knowing what she had just done and simply smirk even more. "What you don't like the real cold hearted me? That's a pity..." I mutter going back to messing with my curls. "What is she thinking keeping it curled like this..." I say walking over to the mirror and start looking for a comb in the drawers.
[[thank you. you should read mine and riley's thread. hahaha. that one is worse.]]]

"Rubalyn is more and more like Alex, how could I?" She muttered, sitting down at the edge of the bed. How more stupid could she have gotten? Here she was, in a muggle motel with Rubalyn not Shelby. Rubalyn, the evil one. "Fuck," She whispered as she ran a hand through her hair.
{[Which one is that?]}

I turn away from the mirror looking out the window. "Foolish girl. You're scared of Rubalyn, when you should be scared of me." Alex's voice booms through the room. "And now, you're stuck in here alone with me."
[[haha. i love this. ummm... st. mungo's fourth floor.]]

"I'm not fucking scared!" Briar screamed, her body shaking from anger. She took out her wand and quickly used the Muffliato charm so no muggle could hear.

"You should be. And you have no idea where I am do you Briar..." his voice says again, deeper and laughing manically.

"Don't you dare say my name Crescent," She hissed, "My name will not be contaminated by such filth as you." Briar merely looked at the wall infront of her and shook her head, "No I do not Crescent, why don't you tell me?"

Rubalyn stands up and walks over to where Briar was standing. "Hello love..." his voice comes out of Shelby's mouth. "Miss me..."
