Ivory hummed to herself while she sat up on her new bed in her new house in Uglyville. It had been two years since Lou's defeat, and she couldn't be happier.

The blue haired doll stared out the window with a content smile on her face, her gaze traveled towards the window. She stood up and walked towards it, when she got her gaze darted to her brother's mansion in the distance.

She clenched her jaw, even though she felt angry there was still an ache in her heart. Why should I miss you after everything you've done?!

Ivory turned away from the window and started to lace back and forth, why does she feel bad for him? He deserved it! But she couldn't shake the feeling of guilt that stabbed at her heart.

Italic=Ivory Bold and italic= Lou

Why should I play this game of pretend?
Remembering through a secondhand sorrow.
Such a "great" brother and "wonderful" leader.
Oh, why won't the tears just pour.

I could curl up and hide in my room
There in my bed, still sobbing tomorrow
I could give in to all the guilt
But tell me, tell me what for?

Why should I have a guilty heart?
Why should I begin to break in pieces?
Why should I go and fall apart for you?

Why should I play the lonely doll and lie
Saying that I miss you
And that my world has gone dark without your light
I will sing no requiem tonight

Transitions to Lou sitting on his bed in his mansion, holding Ivory's hair clip close to his heart.

You gave me the world, and I threw it away
Forcing these broken pieces upon you
Everything wasted, nothing to say

But I still hear your voice and feel you near
Within these walls I finally found you
And now that I know that you are safe
I will sing no requiem tonight

Transitions back to Ivory who was laying on her bed.

Why should I have a guilty heart?
Why should I say I'll never leave you?
Why should I go and fall apart for you?

Why should I playing the lonely doll and lie
Saying that I miss you and that my world has gone dark without your light? (I can still see your light)

I will sing no requiem
Tonight
Cause when the villains fall, the kingdoms never cry

No one wants to remember
No, no one hurts at all
When they leave them all alone

So, don't tell me that I didn't get it right
Don't tell me that it wasn't black and white
After all you put me through
Don't say it isn't true
That you aren't the monster
That I knew

'Cause I can't play the lonely doll and lie
Saying that I miss you
And that my world has gone dark without your light

I will sing no requiem
I will sing no requiem
I will sing no requiem tonight

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh

Ivory hugged her pillow she didn't feel like getting up right now, all she wanted was to know why she misses her brother so much.
