Blanche watched her sister go to the window silently. They hadn't been on this plane in awhile, simply choosing to drift away from The Darkness. She made a noise, and Annie turned around to face her before turning back without saying a word. "We need to make them leave." She said softly. "He'll not take kindly to them being here. He never does. I was thinking..I take one and you can take one." Blanche agreed, and they divvied up the boys. Blanche would take the older, happier-looking, one and Annie would take the other with the longer hair.

Blanche stayed in the room as Annie disappeared, gliding to the window and looking out at the boys. She didn't care if they happened to look up and see her--it wasn't her way to be discreet. She tucked a curly blonde strand behind her hair and fingered her blue satin dress. Most people in her time said that she was beautiful...almost as beautiful as her elder sister. The only imperfection on her now were the dark red marks on her neck as a memory of her death.

She heard a small commotion downstairs and smiled. She knew her sister had already started the games. She was always quick to start. Blanche liked to take some more time. Get to know the people and the updates they had brought to their world. The last ones had brought a small device that allowed them to talk to each other from far away. It was quite interesting.

She disappeared and moved into the room below, where the boys stood together, talking. She caught the last of their conversation about Annie and herself and gasped. Why would they speak about that in these rooms? Anyone could hear them. She decided then that maybe playing with these two wasn't such a good idea. She would have to let her sister win...just this once.

Blanche moved to the side of the taller one with the shorter hair--the one that she had been "assigned" to--and played her fingers along his shoulders. She knew he couldn't feel her touch, but he would feel something. Annie and her had developed rules in earlier years, when they first discovered the Darkness was after them. She was now violating these rules by making physical contact so soon, but she couldn't help herself. There was something so...intriguing about this man. She laughed lightly to herself, and disappeared.
