"Is everything ready?" I asked.

I was gonna sing to Jace, he's gonna faint or something like that, and we're gonna put him in the torture chamber.

"We're all good down here. Here's your guitar."

"Thanks Aiden. Alright, let's do this."

I was gonna sing to him in his room, and then Aiden and Craven are gonna bring him downstairs.

"Craven, how does Tori feel about this?"

"She doesn't know. Let's finish this."

They went downstairs and I called Jace.

He entered immediately. "That was a long conversation."

"Sorry. I was talking to them about a song I should sing you."

"Really? I think your lying."

"Just sit and listen. Please?"

He sighed. "Ok."

He sat on the bed with me and I started to sing.

"I feel your knife as it goes right in
Cut to my core but I'm not bleeding
All that you say trying to make me small
Well, the bigger you get the harder you fall

You use your words as a weapon dear
But your blades don't hurt when you have no fear

You think that you're deep under my skin
You're trying to keep me suffering

If you use your words as a weapon
Then as a weapon, I'll shed no tears

You have my heart but I lock it up
This burning flame has been burnt enough
My window's cracked they can be replaced
But your arm will tire throwing stones my way

You use your words as a weapon dear
But your blades don't hurt when you have no fear

You think that you're deep under my skin
You're trying to keep me suffering

If you use your words as a weapon
Then as a weapon, I'll shed no tears

I feel your knife as it goes right in

You use your words as a weapon dear
But your blades don't hurt when you have no fear

You think that you're deep under my skin
You're trying to keep me suffering

If you use your words as a weapon
Then as a weapon, I'll shed no tears

I'll shed no tears"

Thump

Jace fell on the floor passed out.

"Craven! Aiden!"

They came in, picked him up and brought him down stairs.

"When he wakes up, you have to talk to him." Craven said to me. "I'll go make sure Tori doesn't come down here. Aiden, tell Rose."

Then he walked out.

"Tell me what?"

"I'll tell you later."

"What? No. You can't! Tell me now!"

"Rose, not right this second ok?"

"Aiden-"

"Rose!" It was Jace.

"Your awake." Aiden said, smiling.

"Why am I in here?"

"Rose. Tell him."

I looked at Jace.

"So I can kill you."
