Maddy arrived, @Vapor Aryanna and @EmiTheNinja the other woman... Shidalia? Behind.

Aryanna reached Maddy's side, sighing. "Why'd you need everyone?"

"A cube? Boring, but all right." Cadenza made a couple of ice cubes, then reconsidered. "What about... a sphere? No sharp edges!"

Cruz grabs the icicle and hands it over to the colonel. "What if they were cubes?"

The colonel took the icicle in his hands and crushed it. "I think this will work better," the colonel held out his hand which was filled with pieces of the icicle.

"Where's your gun?" asked Cadenza, looking around.

"That makes no sense." The colonel turned back to the rest of the group, "We've gotta get moving, I've already reported the situation with Trace/Janice back to command, and they're waiting for us to report to the nearest city. Jack, can you get us there?"

"DON'T HURT HER!" Janice screamed, then started sobbing again. "Please..."

Desolé, mes amis. I could have sworn I posted this...

Also I'm probably going to phase Jay out, since I can't participate as often as I'd like, and the main plotline is moving much faster.

"Hmm, that's interesting. Is it attachment? Pity? It's a little late to try and be a hero, child. You have your own problems to deal with."

The Queen grabbed a crystalline tool from the air and pressed it to Janice's chest. The Traces on her skin began burning as Trace's consciousness began leaving her mind.

This will act kind of like a spren gemstone, if you want to grab it when you escape.

Jay placed his hand on Aryanna's shoulder. "I'm sorry, but... I have to go. I'll try and find another way to save Janice, but... I think she's out of our reach for now. I'll come back when I can." He walks away, then reconsiders. He hands her a strange looking box. "If you really need help, break this open. Whoever comes will protect you and Cadenza."

The Queen grabbed a crystalline tool from the air and pressed it to Janice's chest. The Traces on her skin began burning as Trace's consciousness began leaving her mind.

Janice screamed, thrashing against her bonds. Trace tried to hold on as she was pried out of Janice's mind, but found the power of the Queen to be too much to fight against.

Inside her mind...

Trace struggled against the power of the Queen. It was fruitless; she knew it was.

"Trace! Calm down!" Janice gasped, grabbing her hand.

"I can't!" Trace screamed. "Don't let her! Please!"

Janice pulled her into a hug. "You'll be alright. You're going to be fine."

"No. No I won't." Trace was crying. When was the last time she had cried? "You don't understand. You can't understand."

"I do, Trace," Janice replied, holding her in one last embrace. "You know I do."

Trace hesitated, then hugged back. "I'm scared."

"I know you are. You'll be fine, Trace. You're strong."

With a sniff, Trace replied, "you were always stronger."

Both Janice's and Trace's consciousnesses were torn from the space in Janice's mind; but Trace's didn't end at Janice's eyes and body. It was ripped out of its habitation, brought before the Queen in a cold kneel.

"Your Majesty," Trace whimpered, "please."
