Revenge bent psychos, Senile and Dangerous

Kill Kitty, Kill kitty, Kill!

I'm on a mission to be malicious

Kill Kitty, Kill Kitty, Kill!

In God we trust, shit ain't fair

Kill Kitty, Kill Kitty, Kill!

It's all a fraud, I DON'T CARE!

It hadn't taken Nevermore long to find Julius. Knowing the clock tower as well as she did, (and knowing Malachai probably showed Julius around the Tower), she knew exactly where he would be going. His room.

Or he would at the very least be attempting to find it. With Malachai's description of the tower's layout, she knew it would have been a matter of minutes before the boy got lost.

In fact, she could tell from the way he was looking around that he already seemed to be uncertain of where he was. A small smirk formed on the girl's lips, as a her plan for revenge slowly started to formulate in her head.

Slowly approaching Julius, Nevermore put on an award winning smile, she said, "Hello Julius!"

The boy's head snapped around to look at the girl. His aura swiftly turning from confusion to irritation upon seeing her.

A nasty scowl covered his features, as he said, "What do you want?"

"Oh nothing really." Nevermore responded, gently batting her long raven eyelashes and clasping her hands behind her back. "I just thought you might like a better tour of the Tower. Malachai doesn't really give the best description of it's layout, and I know my way around better than he does seeing as I'm normally stuck here all day."

Her voice was sickeningly sweet, making Julius cringe from disgust. Though he truly did not want to be anywhere near the girl, Julius couldn't deny that he was having some difficulty navigating his way around.

Very cautiously, Julius said, "I suppose I could use some help."

"Of course you could. Now follow me." Nevermore said, before briskly walking forward, chatting idly about the tower's in and outs.

Julius didn't pay much attention to the girl's incessant babbling, not finding much value in it. He did however, take this time to study the girl.

The one thing the boy had to admit was the girl was tragically beautiful. With her snow white hair, and her blood red eyes. Her skin was a ghostly white color on which her lush pink lips popped out on. Her crimson dress contrasted wonderfully with her skin, and the boy assumed it only made her look paler than what she actually was.

Yes, the girl was pretty if anything, but there was something about her that seemed to put him off. Maybe it was that she lived here in the Clock Tower, and she wasn't the rightful heir to the title of Clock Maker. No, that would one day be his title. He would be the one to tend to the Clock Tower, (what ever that meant). Not this trollop of a girl. Julius would make sure of that.

A possible thought that did cross his mind though was that Nevermore could possibly be the next Queen of Hearts. It would make sense for her to be with her looks and her personality. It would even explain why she would be here instead of at Heart Castle. The Red Queen right now was bloody mad, making any excuse to execute someone. He could only imagine the lengths the Queen would go to, to kill her successor.

Yes, that must be the answer! A satisfied smirk graced his lips, as he thought of how the girl would be gone once the Queen of Hearts was dead.

"Are you even listening to me?" Nevermore queried impatiently, pulling Julius from his thoughts.

He hadn't noticed that they had stopped walking, nor did he have any clue as to what Nevermore had said before that question. He wouldn't admit to that though, and said, "Of course."

"What did I say then?" Nevermore challenged, quirking a thing white brow.

Julius froze, not knowing what to say in response to that.

Nevermore on the other hand slowly smirked, before saying, "That's what I thought. Now, I had said this is your room. My room is next door and Malachai's is at the end of the hall. If you need anything, you can knock on my door or go to the repair shop. That's normally where I am. Most importantly though and the number one thing you should live by is to beware the Jabberwock."

"I beg pardon?" Julius said, not quite understanding if he had heard the girl right.

"I said you must beware the Jabberwock." Nevermore said, as if she were talking to a two year old.

"There's no such thing." Julius replied hastily.

"How would you know?" Nevermore asked.

"Because Jabberwocks are stories parents tell to their children, so that they'll behave. They don't really exist."

"Have you ever met one?"

"Well, no, but-"

"Then how do you know they aren't real?"

"They just aren't! Besides it isn't like you've ever met one."

"Oh, but I have."

"I don't believe you."

"Believe what you will, but I have seen a Jabberwock before, and they are everything the stories say and more. In fact the Jabberwock quite often comes out around the Tower." Nevermore said, a quite frightening grin on her face, before continuing. "Now, I'm going to my room, I bid you adieu. Oh, and remember, beware the Jabberwock!"

With that, Nevermore left a slightly stunned and frightened Julius at his bedroom door.
