[video + text] sob i apologize if this makes no sense at all
[The video takes place in the garden of a large estate house at night; however, the area is well-lit from the windows of the houses, where a party is going on inside.
Meridiana, the girl Jezebel resurrected from the dead, is running through the garden as fast as she can, dress streaming behind her. Chasing her is Earl Cain, the aristocrat that Jezebel was poisoning.]
Wait! Come back! There's something I need to ask you!
Go away!
[Cain trips as he runs, sending them both sprawling, him landing on top of her. He balks for a moment before she reaches up and slaps him.]
How long do you think you're going to sit on me! If you have a question to ask, why don't you behave in a civil way?!
[Cain sits back and chuckles.] You're quite the aggressive lady.
Oh! That's right...I forgot that this was how I was in the past.
Huh?
Let her go, Cain. [Jezebel walks out from behind a statue, knife in hand.] If you don't, I will slash your throat. [He grins a little.] It's been a long time, hasn't it?
[Cain glares.]You don't look bad for a corpse who crawled out of casket, doctor. Being a homicidal maniac suits you.
Unhand the girl, Cain.
[Cain pulls out a revolver, pointing it towards Jezebel's head.]I will not.
[Jezebel chuckles.] Oh ho ho...many men are shallow enough to fall for superficial beauty. I'm disappointed you're one of them.
You're wrong. I didn't fall for her appearance. It was that I felt something very special when I touched her.
[Jezebel frowns for a moment, holding the knife out towards Cain.] Let's go home, Meridiana. You must be starving.
[Cain stands, walking closer, gun aimed for Jezebel's face.] Drop the knife, doctor!
[Jezebel smiles.] Disarming me doesn't get you anywhere, Earl Cain. I've become a much more cautious man.
[There's a rustling of leaves and then suddenly a form hurtles at Cain, landing on his back and striking him across the head. Cain slumps, unconscious. The attacker stands; it's Cassian, Jezebel's assistant. He nods down at Cain.]
You want me to kill him, doc?
Not yet.
[Cassian smirks.] Killing your younger brother pricks your conscience? Even if he isn't related by blood?
[Jezebel glares at him while pulling out a hypodermic needle.] You might want to rid yourself of that sense of curiosity, Cassian.
[He kneels over Cain and grins.] It's alright, Cain, I won't hurt you. The only thing that might be uncomfortable is that your pretty eyes will be gone when you wake up...
[Meridiana shrieks and slaps the needle out of his hand.] Stop it!
[Jezebel blinks, surprised, until a voice on the other side of the garden yells out 'Is someone there?' Cassian and Jezebel quickly scatter from the scene, leading Meridiana away with them before they're caught.
This doesn't bode well. Earl Cain deliberately sought us out, and given his talent for nosiness, I have no doubt he's going to continue seeking us out. Especially now that he seems to have decided he's head over heels for Meridian. Good God.
I'm surprised by Meridiana. She continues to remain emotionless...except for when she's with Earl Cain. But she claims to be frightened of him.
Hmm. This isn't going to be quite so easy to keep up.
((The scene is abridged a little just to keep it from going on forever. Also, text colors are as follows: pink for Meridiana, red for Cain, green for Cassian, blue for Jezebel.))
