While in Weimar, Lilly and Gerrard take care of Zoe, Sophie, Fiona, Aschenputtel, and Siegfried are at the place the child mentioned. Sophie stayed with the child.
Sophie: "Hmm."
Siegfried: "This is it."
Fiona: "Okay…"
Aschenputtel: "Hmmm... creepy."
(patch!) (Patch)
Jack: "Well, look at that…"
Aschenputtel: "Huh!"
Jack: "Well what do you know, I knew you'd find her... Aschenputtel is with you... hehehe…"
Sophie: "Jack Hunter!"
Fiona: "Oh great… just missing a wheel falling on my head."
(Krach!)
Fiona: "Ouch.."
Sophie: "(sweating)... that wasn't a wheel… what was that…"
Jack: "Hmm… stay calm… that was probably one of the crates that always get thrown down there… Give me Aschenputtel… and I… won't harm you."
Sophie: "Yeah right…"
Fiona: "No… rejected."
Jack: "No, rejection rejected."
Fiona: "Then I reject the rejection of my rejection!"
Jack: "You're really stubborn…"
Sophie: "Ghhh…"
Sophie grabbed his weapon.
Sophie: "Go, I'll handle him."
Jack: "Hey, let go bitch."
Fiona: "Ugh.."
Sophie: "I've got this, go!"
They hurried off…
Jack: "Ghhh…"
Sophie: "Ghhhh…"
Both held onto the pistol.
Jack: "Ghhhh… you're really strong… ghhhh…"
He pushed her, holding onto his coat… the jacket fell.
Sophie: "Ughh… huh?!"
Jack: "Ugh... huhhh…"
Sophie: "What the hell…"
He was wearing an undershirt… but… Jack… wasn't a man… it was… a woman the whole time… She quickly covered her stomach.
Jack: "Ghhhh… you saw it, didn't you!"
Sophie: "You're a woman!"
Jack: "Ghhhhh…"
Sophie: "Ohhh… you're… a woman."
Jack: "Shhhh… be quiet."
Ruslana: "Hey… Jack."
Jack: "Fuck…"
Ruslana: "Ugh… huh?… yeah… but Jack… you… you're… a man… I thought…"
Jack: "Uh… um…"
Sophie: "Good… I can use that."
She quickly ran inside and took the elevator.
Jack: "Damn it, stay here!"
(Peng!)
Sophie: "Huh."
(Ding)
Jack: "Shit…"
Ruslana: "Explain… to me… why you dress like a man… are you a lesbian?"
Jack: "What?.. No…"
Ruslana: "Oh…"
(meanwhile)
Sophie: "Hahh… hahhh…"
Fiona: "Ugh… Sophie."
Sophie: "Fiona."
Fiona hugged Sophie.
Sophie: "Ughh… hey…"
Fiona: "I heard shots, I was about to go back down."
Sophie: "Woah… woah… calm down, okay."
She let her go.
Sophie: "Are the others okay?"
Fiona: "Yes…"
Sophie: "Hmm…"
Fiona: "Something wrong?"
Sophie: "No… it's fine… let's hurry."
They went through the ventilation.
Sophie: "Why through the vents?"
Fiona: "It'll be harder to follow us."
Sophie: "Hmm."
Jack and Ruslana followed them.
Jack: "Damn…"
Ruslana: "Hey Jack… um… is Jack your name?"
Jack: "Yes…"
Ruslana: "Why does a woman have the name Jack?"
Jack: "That doesn't matter now, Ruslana… focus on your damn mission."
Ruslana: "Woah… chill, okay…"
Jack: "Let's continue…"
They kept searching…
Jack: "You go left, I go right."
Ruslana: "Okay."
Jack: "Hey… Ruslana."
Ruslana: "What?"
Suddenly she pointed the gun at her head.
Ruslana: "Hey… what's that supposed to mean…"
Jack: "If you… tell anyone…!"
Ruslana: "Okay, okay… lower the gun."
She did.
Jack: "Hmph… huh?"
(Dong!)
Jack: "Did you hear that?"
Ruslana: "Yes… that's them…"
Jack: "Hurry, you go there, go left, I go right."
They rushed off…
Jack: "Hahhh…"
(memory)
Jack: "Ugh."
(Slap!)
Jack's mother: "Why did I have to get a daughter!... I wanted a son… I already have four daughters!"
Jack's father: "Who's going to do all the damn work now… hmm…"
Jack: "Hhhhh…"
Jack's father: "We are nobles… we need an heir… but a female heir?!... hmph… that will never happen… not in Dukewood!... Helen… take her… cut her hair and take a knife and slice her throat… not enough to kill her but so her voice is gone… Dr. Metzold… help her… put the device in so her voice at least sounds somewhat male."
He left.
Jack: "No… wait… wait…"
He closed the door and looked out the window.
Jack: "Aaaaaaaaaaaaarghhhhh…..ghhhhhh...urk...ghhhh.."
Metzold: "Good… that's deep enough, Mrs. Helen… it's bleeding heavily, we need to hurry…"
Jack: "Hmph."
(a few hours later)
Jack: "Hahh… what is… going on… hahh… ugh…"
She stood up immediately.
Jack: "Hahh… my voice… why does it sound so strange… what is this key on my throat… and a keyhole!"
Metzold: "Don't worry… just don't remove it…"
Jack: "What did you do to me…"
He showed her a mirror… her hair was cut.
Metzold: "I cut your hair almost to your ears… from now on you won't be called Beth anymore… but Jack Hunter… understood?... if you don't do what we say… I'll kill you… I have your father's permission."
Jack: "Hahhh… why…"
Metzold: "Because that's how it is… be glad… instead of having to marry, have children, and only do housework… now you can do more… hmph…"
He left the room.
Jack: "Hahhhh… Hahhhh…"
(three years later)
Jack: "Hhh…"
Civilian: "Look at Jack, isn't he handsome…"
Civilian: "Yeah… you'd think his eyes are so beautiful you'd faint…"
Jack: "Hmmmhhh… (damn bastards…)"
She went into her room.
Jack: "Ghhh… ghhhh… (tears)."
(a few hours later, during the night)
(screams)
Jack: "Hahhh…"
She came out.
Jack: "Father?... mother… ugh!"
The guards were lying dead on the floor… she slowly went upstairs…
Helen: "Urk..ghhhhh….ghhh."
(Splach!)
Zantanel: "Hmmm?"
Jack: "Hahhh…"
Zantanel: "Oh… look at that…"
Jack: "Hahh…"
She fell to the ground.
Jack: "No… please… please don't hurt me…"
Zantanel: "Poor… child…"
She held her cheek.
Zantanel: "You're a girl… right…"
Jack: "Ughh…"
Zantanel: "A nightgown usually worn by women… hmm…"
Jack: "Hahhh…"
Zantanel: "I've been watching you… or at least one of my people has… right… Benedik?"
Benedik: "Hmm."
Jack: "Benedik… what… what does this mean…"
Benedik: "I was worried about you, miss… you cried every day… and then… I met Miss Zantanel Kafka… and thought she could help you…"
Zantanel: "Hehe."
Jack: "Huhh…"
She held her cheeks with both hands.
Zantanel: "Come with me, child… I will make sure no one ever does this to you again…"
Jack: "Who… who are you?"
Zantanel: "I am Zantanel Kafka… daughter of death… and the suffering of this world…"
Jack: "Hahh… what do you want from me?"
Zantanel: "Benedik told me you know a lot about your curse powers… your Hunter family was cursed years ago… only it changes every time… sometimes the first child… second… third… fourth… or even fifth… child…"
Jack: "Ughh…"
Zantanel: "You can see spirits, can't you…"
Jack: "Huh…"
Zantanel: "Benedik said you don't understand your powers…"
Jack: "Hhhh…"
Zantanel: "Are you afraid?"
Jack: "Ghhh…"
She stroked her head.
Zantanel: "Shhh… everything will be fine…"
She stretched out her hands.
Zantanel: "Come here, child… let me… help you… you've cried enough… let me give you the warmth of a… mother…"
Jack: "Huh…"
Zantanel smiled… Jack slowly walked toward her… and Zantanel hugged her.
Jack: "Ghh."
Zantanel: "Let it out… crying is a blessing that should never be underestimated… let it out and I will be here for you…"
Jack: "Ghh… (tears)… aaaaaaaaarghhhh… (crying)"
Zantanel: "Shhhh…"
Jack: "Hahh… I hate them… I hate them… it hurts… my throat hurts… I hate those two… my parents were so cruel!"
Zantanel: "Shhh…"
Zantanel: "Do you want revenge… the doctor is still here… the one who did this to you… bring him here, Benedik."
Benedik brought him.
Jack: "Ughh…"
Metzold: "Please… miss… help me…"
Jack: "Ugh."
Zantanel: "Kill him."
Jack: "Ugh… but… why…"
Zantanel: "You ask that… look what he did to you… look closely… you can't even hear your own voice… you don't even remember it… and this man… is responsible… take revenge… show them that you are strong!"
Jack: "Hahhh."
Suddenly a dark aura…
(Rip)
Benedik: "Ughh."
Jack: "Interesting…"
A large being appeared and hugged Jack from behind… it looked like a beast…
Jack: "Hahhhhh…"
She slowly walked toward him…
Jack: "Hahhh… isn't it beautiful… to have your own voice…"
Metzold: "Miss… Beth… please…"
Jack: "Mmm…"
Her fingers grew longer.
Jack: "Ghhhh…"
Zantanel: "Hmph."
(Splach!)
The blood landed on Zantanel's cheek.
Zantanel: "Hehehe…"
She wiped it with her bare hand… then licked it.
Zantanel: "Well done."
Jack: "Hahhh…"
(end of memory)
Jack: "Hahhh… hahhhh… where are they…"
(Click)
Jack: "Ughh…"
Fiona: "Shhh…"
Jack: "Ugh."
Treyt: "Beep… beep… beep…"
Fiona: "I'll kill you if you try anything."
Jack: "Hahh… ghh."
Fiona: "Careless… is something bothering you?"
Jack: "Ghhh…"
Fiona: "Hmm… ugh… I see… so you're a woman… interesting."
Jack: "Ghhhh…"
Fiona: "Doesn't matter to me… run."
Jack: "Fine."
She ran.
Jack: "What are you going to do now… kill me?"
Fiona: "No… unless you try something dangerous."
Jack: "Hmm…"
The others were there.
Sophie: "Ughhh…"
Sophie ran to her.
Sophie: "Mmmhh…"
Fiona: "Hahh."
Fiona covered Jack.
Jack: "Ughh… why?"
Sophie: "Hmm… what is it?"
Fiona: "We don't want to hurt you… okay… so… where is your partner?"
Jack: "Hmph… Ruslana… you won't find her… don't underestimate her."
Sophie: "Hahh… that's useless…"
Jack: "Hahhh…"
Siegfried: "Hmm… what is that key on your neck?"
Jack: "Huh… no… don't touch that…"
She fell, the key turned slightly… and suddenly her voice became disturbing…
Jack: "Ghhhh… hhh…"
Siegfried: "Ughh."
Sophie: "Huh…"
Jack: "Ghhh… damn it…"
It sounded like an old or sick person… Sophie quickly adjusted it back.
Siegfried: "What was that…"
Jack: "Ghh… damn… that's… my real voice… fine… you two already know… I'm a woman… but because my parents didn't want a daughter, they tore my throat apart so my voice only comes out through this device…"
Sophie: "Ughh."
Fiona: "Hmm."
Sophie: "That's horrible."
Aschenputtel: "Ghhh…"
Jack: "Satisfied now… you want to kill me anyway."
Sophie: "What?... kill you? No… not at all."
Fiona: "Listen… I don't know exactly what happened… but I won't hurt you… you've been hurt enough…"
Jack: "Mmmh…"
Sophie: "Hmm…"
Jack: "Just… don't turn the key… please… I'm begging you…"
Sophie: "Okay… okay."
Fiona: "Hahh."
They stood up.
Sophie: "What did they do to her… no wonder she's on Zantanel's side… what kind of parents do that…"
Fiona: "Nobles who want an heir…"
Aschenputtel: "Exactly… for heirs, women aren't good… that's what nobles think…"
Sophie: "And that's why they abuse their daughter?... did you hear that… that wasn't even human anymore…"
Sophie: "She must have suffered so much…"
Fiona: "Hahhh… I actually wanted information from her… but… I think she'll talk anyway…"
Sophie: "Hmm…"
They went back to her… Fiona sat on a chair.
Jack: "Hahh…"
Fiona: "What exactly do you want with Aschenputtel?"
Jack: "Not telling."
Fiona: "Hmm."
Jack: "Go ahead… use the key."
Fiona: "Hey, I said I won't hurt you…"
Jack: "Mhm… why are you cursed and arcanes even here… on the side of these bastards… they mistreat us just because we're cursed or born with magic or abilities… like arcanes… why do you do that?"
Fiona: "Hahhh… that doesn't matter right now… I know many people who are kind… no matter what they are…"
Jack: "Hmph… you can't stop Zantanel… I'll do everything I can for her."
Sophie: "Hmm."
Jack: "While others abandoned me… she was there for me…"
Sophie: "Yeah… I understand that… but… why do you still pretend to be a man…"
Aschenputtel: "Trauma."
Jack: "Ugh… huh…"
Fiona: "I see… you're still afraid… your parents aren't here anymore but they still managed to torture your mind… the body might forget… but the mind never…"
Jack: "Ughh… hhhh… you heard my voice… how am I supposed to live like this… huh?... because of this damn key I either have a fake male voice or my broken real voice… which is even worse…"
Sophie: "Hahhh…"
Jack: "Tss…"
Sophie: "You killed Jane… she was a good person."
Jack: "It was my job… no one is innocent in our job… it's not about good or bad… she died for a purpose."
Sophie: "Hmm."
Fiona: "Hmph… seems like being nice to you doesn't work."
Jack: "Hehehe…"
Fiona: "Tell me what you want to do with Aschenputtel's blood."
Jack: "No."
Jack smiled, Fiona stood up and kicked the chair.
(Krach!!)
Jack: "Ugh."
Fiona: "I don't have time for this… it's a waste of time… either way… you're weak… and a coward!"
Jack: "Ughh… hu…"
Fiona: "Your parents are gone… and still… you let them control you… even with that voice… you could still be valuable… but why am I even wasting time with someone who hates herself more than her own parents!"
Jack: "Ughh… hhhh…"
Fiona: "Hmph."
Jack: "Ghhh…"
Sophie: "Uh… Fiona."
Fiona: "Huh?"
Jack: "Aaaaaaarghhh…"
Suddenly she started crying like a child.
(Bob!)
Sophie: "Huh!"
Fiona: "Ugh… what… hey…"
Sophie: "Ughh… she's crying."
Jack: "That's so mean… that's so mean… that's so mean… hahhhh… Freddy!!!!!…"
Suddenly a figure appeared behind her.
Sophie: "Ugh."
Fiona: "Huh."
Freddy: "Who dares… make my mistress cry!!!"
Jack: "Hahhh… (crying)…"
He approached, she clung to him.
Sophie: "Like… a child."
Fiona: "She is still a child… maybe."
Aschenputtel: "Hmm… yes… not just maybe… she is a child… I think she's not even 16."
Jack: "I'm 14!!!"
Aschenputtel: "Huh… we were right."
They looked at her sadly.
Freddy: "Hmm…"
Jack: "Attack them, Freddy."
Freddy: "I can't."
Jack: "Why!"
Freddy: "I don't sense any danger from them…"
Jack: "That girl was mean!"
Freddy: "But I still feel they don't see you as a threat."
Jack: "Huh?"
Fiona: "Hahh… okay… okay… I'm sorry… that was a bit harsh…"
Aschenputtel: "That's cute, you apologizing."
Fiona: "Shut up."
Aschenputtel: "Hehe."
Jack: "Freddy!!…"
Freddy: "Hmm… something is coming!"
Sophie: "Huh."
Jack: "Hä?"
A Treyt… but a bigger one this time.
Treyt: "Hmm…"
Jack: "A Big Brother…"
Fiona: "Seriously, that's its name?"
Aschenputtel: "Oh great…"
Treyt: "In the name of the blood of the virgin Aschenputtel… I will take it upon myself to kill you."
Aschenputtel: "As if I'm a virgin."
Fiona: "Her, a virgin? huh…"
Aschenputtel: "What's that supposed to mean, you bitch…"
Big Brother: "(Beep!)
(Beep… beep… beep… beep)
Treyt: "Mother's blood!!"
