 * Crow Faux: Previously on LOTM: Witnesses of Sleepy Hollow...


 * Hungary.full.526188.jpgMoloch: [How was the thing going on?]

Deep inside the cell of Christine, the soul of Christine had her eyes opened as soon as she merged with the fragment of her soul, looking at Moloch in front of her. ''Moloch was still standing in front of Christine with his face covered in fog. Christine closed her eyes with a sigh. During this time, she allowed her mind flow for a while, before her mind started to enter another timeline in her vision.'' ''Then, Christine opened her eyes and looked around with a smile. She had saw something '' ''Moloch did not answer. He only stood up and walked to Christine in a serious face.'' ''Christine shook her head and did not answer. She did not try to talk back when Moloch was looking at her in such a seriousness. She indeed knew what would it take if Moloch was offended.'' ''With some kind of sadness coming from her eyes, Christine then looked down on the ground with a sigh. She then started to tremble in anger as her shackles began to shake.'' ''Moloch turned back in dissatisfaction. However, he soon relented and spoke in a calmer tone.'' ''Moloch soon disappeared in front of Christine, as he teleported himself to the woods. Christine suddenly felt pain inside her head. Tears started to run down from her cheek.'' ''In another kind of tone that was much less menace and much more gentle, Christine surprisingly started to cry and mourn Colin... as if there was some kind of kinder and more compassionate side living inside her mind. It was real tears, and she did not try to pretend.'' ''However, Christine soon stopped crying and widened her eyes. Her eyes suddenly turned more menacing as if she had switched into another personality.'' ''The menacing side of Christine soon fell into silence, before she looked around the cell and sighed. She then looked at her own stomach before speaking to herself.'' ''Christine then bit her lips, feeling the pain that two minds was fighting inside her own soul. However, soon she stopped feeling pain, as her darker side began to take over her.''
 * Christine: Master, the thing is over and it goes rather well. I have Marcus to set on action... and he will make a dark secret never spill away so that we can one day gain our goods by corrupting this town.
 * Christine: This world is like a beehive, like I always said, Master. The society needs a strong ruler as its queen. It must be a talented and worthy ruler to rule this world and make it heading towards the future. I came to realize this a hard way.
 * Christine: By the way, where is that little dark fairy? I guess I need to thank her for what Firenza's son have become, for fully embracing your ideology so that I can serve you here. Otherwise, I will be a nobody forever, just a girl exploited by her lying father.
 * Moloch: [I highly doubt if you really learned something during your times in Purgatory, but I guess you just don't want to show it in front of me. That can be a progress, though. Anyway, it is only days, and I can chain you in centuries if necessary.]
 * Hungary.full.248515.jpgChristine: I have abandoned my love on my brother so that I can fully understand your ideology, Master, and what else could I say? At least, there is no way turning back. That Christine had died.
 * Christine: I promise you, Master. As soon as I return back to Sleepy Hollow, I will give you the head of Ichabod Crane no matter what it takes! He should die a long time ago.
 * Moloch2ndForm_.jpgMoloch: [Not so fast, you just need to stay here and do things right. I will settle the whole thing inside Sleepy Hollow. You just follow my orders. If you try to make any stupid moves again, I will know. Therefore, don't treat me as if I am foolish.]
 * Christine: Colin, I'm sorry... I'm sorry...
 * Hungary.full.713505.jpgChristine: Why did I do this... I cannot...
 * Christine: SILENCE! YOU COWARD! DON'T CRY! DON'T FEEL REGRET!
 * Christine: You like what I did. We both do. Just stop playing with my mind.
 * Christine: No, Colin should die for his utterly foolish incompetence. I am no longer who I was...

 - Christine: Never again.

''It took about 20 minutes to make Ichabod and Abbie arrived in the house of Richard Williams, which was a common bungalow with no special feature. After they disembarked from their car, Ichabod and Abbie started to approach the house and walked onto the stairs.'' ''Abbie went to the door of the house before knocking it, waiting for its owner. Ichabod stood far behind her and observed his surroundings.'' Just as Abbie continued to speak, Ichabod suddenly spotted some shadows which rapidly swept the room under sunlight. ​Meanwhile, inside the house, Richard Williams rushed to peek out of his window blind, in a face of terror, before he start running to somewhere else.
 * Ichabod: Let's hope we find Mr. Williams before the Whispering Wraith catches scent of his secrets.
 * 断头谷.Sleepy.Holl-00_20_45--20171004-090319-2-.png: Is anyone home? Mr. Williams? It's Lt. Mills from Sleepy Hollow Police Department. I have some questions regarding your associations with Paul Everett. Mr. Williams?
 * Abbie: Is anyone home? Mr. Williams?

Outside of the house, Ichabod looked back as he saw smokes made of some kind of pitch black material, forming into a shape of a hooded human. ''Abbie turned back and saw the creature as well. She immediately raised her gun and pointed at the wraith creature.'' Pointing her gun at Marcus, Abbie started to walk downstairs and approached the monster, before Ichabod glared at him. ''The wraith of Marcus Collins did not show any reactions or attempt to leave, and Abbie immediately fired at the creature. However, the bullets proved no use since Marcus had dodged all of them.''
 * Ichabod: Lieutenant?
 * Ichabod: We have company.
 * 断头谷.Sleepy.Holl-00_21_08--20171004-093235-7-.pngIchabod: Cease! No further!

''Recognizing Ichabod Crane, the wraith let out a roar and then plunged two whips made of shadows into the body of both Ichabod and Abbie, respectively. The two then stepped back while holding their chests in pain.'' ''Ichabod and Abbie started to step back in horror, as they felt more and more uncomfortable. Soon, they began to feel the terror as Marcus delved deeper into their darkest secrets. Inside their mind, the voices of Marcus and Christine together echoed in their mind.'' Ichabod and Abbie both widened their eyes in horror as flashbacks began to be recalled in their mind.
 * 断头谷.Sleepy.Holl-00_21_13--20171004-093442-8-.pngMarcus: Secrets...
 * Marcus: Show me your secrets...
 * Christine: Show him your secrets...

Ichabod's Vision


<p style="text-align:center;">'' - Howe: Give us the names! ''

Abbie's Vision


<p style="text-align:center;">'' - Young Jenny: Yes, she did! Tell him! ''

Reality
''Just as the wraith prepared to attack the Ichabod and Abbie, a silver car suddenly passed by pavement. It was obviously the car of Richard Williams, and the wraith of Marcus immediately sunk itself into the ground instead of focusing on Ichabod and Abbie. They immediately felt relieved, with the strain in their throat started to fade.''

''However, there was nothing to be glad about it. Ichabod and Abbie watched in horror as they saw a mass shadow was sweeping the ground and following the car in front of it.''


 * Sister Mary Eunice: And they sought to stop him...

''Hearing this, Ichabod and Sister Mary Eunice looked at each other, appalled. Sister Mary Eunice turned her head away and started to rub her knuckles in stress.'' ''Abbie put her hand on her cheek as she finished viewing the files found on Williams' house, which were detailing the blight that Williams and Everett were about to expose. Ichabod calmed himself down before falling into silence, which was unnerving.'' Then, having himself fully calmed down, Ichabod sighed. ''Hearing this, Abbie lit her eyes up, looking at Ichabod with curiosity, and Sister Mary Eunice had the same reaction as well. Both women felt surprised to see this.'' Abbie and Sister Mary Eunice both looked at Ichabod nervously. Ichabod then looked at Abbie. ''Abbie did not answer. Instead, she pointed at the file in her hand. She stood up from her chair and approached Ichabod and Sister Mary Eunice.''
 * Sister Mary Eunice: ... to remove a blight on their community, just like the heroic spies who sought to topple General Howe as he bled dry the city of New York.
 * Ichabod: And now the very same traitorous wretch who silenced my fellows seeks once again... to remove a secret before it can be brought to light!
 * Ichabod: ......
 * Ichabod: The truth is, the creature's shadows brought forth a secret of which I have not spoken to another soul.
 * Hungary.full.931770.jpgSister Mary Eunice: Crane?
 * Ichabod: I was captured, brought forth to General Howe. He and Christine offered me a full pardon if I give him a list of names of Washington's spies. So I took quill in hand... and, uh...
 * Abbie: You didn't do it.
 * Ichabod: No, I escaped, put the whole thing behind me, but the thought had been there, the intention. It was a moment of doubt that has plagued me since.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: But in the end you did the right thing.
 * Ichabod: And what about you? Did you feel... anything?
 * Abbie: There are more urgent secrets that we need to deal with.


 * 断头谷.Sleepy.Holl-00_34_37--20171005-125725-7-.pngIchabod: I was offered clemency by the enemy, but I did not accept it, because I hold firm and YOU DO NOT!

''With a deranged yell, Marcus immediately rushed to Ichabod and pushed it on the ground. The two then started to fight in combat.''

''Looking at each other briefly, Abbie and Sister Mary Eunice seized the chance and rushed to Marcus. Abbie raised the pipe from the ground and punched the spine of Marcus.''
 * 断头谷.Sleepy.Holl-00_34_41--20171005-125507-6-.pngAbbie: You die!

Enraged, Marcus stood up pushed Abbie away, and started to approach Abbie, but Sister Mary Eunice used her wings to fling on Marcus, pushing him on the ground.

''Just as Marcus was about to fight back, Abbie gave Ichabod the pipe before she and Sister Mary Eunice drew Marcus' attention. However, Marcus pushed Abbie away and ignored Sister Mary Eunice, as he went straight towards Ichabod... before having his chest impaled by the pipe.'' ''The wraith power on Marcus had faded, and the person who made him into a wraith was in Purgatory could not recover his abilities any longer. Therefore, Marcus was no difference to a mortal man, not to mention being utterly vulnerable. Therefore, when Ichabod pulled the pipe out, Marcus could only watch as his rotten flesh began to turn into dust, before he finally disappeared forever.''
 * 断头谷.Sleepy.Holl-00_34_44--20171005-130825-9-.pngIchabod: Send Christine my best regards.

''Watching as Marcus died for good, Ichabod had finally succeeded in avenging those warriors who was betrayed and killed by the traitor. Ichabod then look at Abbie and Sister Mary Eunice as he dropped the pipe on the ground.'' The trio then look around as they won another fight and solved another case once again, but they all knew that it was not the end. ''​She was clearly referring to the corruption case. Since the only witness to the incident was safe, the Team Witness were now free to expose the corrupt politician and bring him into justice.''
 * 断头谷.Sleepy.Holl-00_34_56--20171005-130806-8-.pngIchabod: Thanks, ladies.
 * Abbie: It appars that the threat has passed.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: All that's left is to bring one more secret into the light.

''Sitting in the yard of Corbin silently, Ichabod was thinking all the things occurring these days, as well as those monsters he endured. Many of them are from his past, including the Headless Horseman, Christine Van Bilj, the Byzantine Parang and Marcus Collins.''

''Meanwhile, another secret was exposed and caused a great amount of influence in the town. The scandal involved with Arthur Weissman had now been spread throughout the headline article in the town, and he also confessed that he was involved with some sort of satanic cult activities, which summoned a dire wraith to kill anyone who was trying to expose him, causing the deaths of both Paul Everett and Richard Williams.''

However, as there was no proof that any satanic cult existed in the town of Sleepy Hollow, the police did not pay any more attention to this.

''Even so, on behalf of the mayor, Phyllis Parker, the most renowned prosecutors in the town, held a modest press conference, claiming that she would take actions and seek out the truth behind all this, so that the town of Sleepy Hollow will be safe once again. She considered Arthur being sane and would turn him into police before getting to the bottom of these ghastly cases.''



''Nevertheless, only twenty minutes later after the case closed, it was reported that Arthur Weissman was murdered by several masked gangsters who attacked the police force and killed him, clearly wanting to shut him up. The gangsters refused to turn themselves in and were all shot in sight.''

''After reading the news, Ichabod felt there could be a greater conspiracy behind all of those evil crimes, even behind a corrupt crime inside a petty official. Ichabod was determined that one day, he shall find out the true mastermind of all those evil events and saved his wife from Purgatory.''

''Just as Ichabod was thinking, he heard the door was opened. Abbie then walked out of the door and went towards Ichabod, before sitting beside him.'' As Abbie began to sat down, Ichabod thought for a while and then he sighed. After showing three fingers to Abbie one by one for the three things he said, Ichabod sighed and shrugged his shoulder casually. ''​As Abbie finished her words, she lowed down her head, somehow in shame. Ichabod closed his eyes and he did not see her expression. He then opened his eye, and lifted the cup of whiskey in his hand.'' Then, Ichabod lowed down his head again. ''​Ichabod then took a sip of whiskey and waved his arms slightly. He felt that he never been so carefree before, as if all of his burdens on his back disappeared in just one second...'' ''​Abbie looked at Ichabod as her smile faded. Ichabod did not know what Abbie was thinking, and he looked at her with curiosity.'' ''​Abbie let out a sigh. She was almost letting her darkest secret out from her tongue, but she then looked away, much to Ichabod's confusion.'' ​Trying to avoid the further talk, Abbie silently closed her eyes and sighed.
 * Abbie: This whole Marcus Collins thing is still bothering you?
 * Ichabod: Oh, um... yes, I defied General Howe. Yes, I refused to betray my fellow spies... but I did consider the option.
 * Rforogief.gifIchabod: Now, what does that say about me?
 * Abbie: That means you are a human being, like the rest of us, and when the chip came down, you did the right thing.
 * Ichabod: Hmm... to which we always thrive.
 * Ichabod: Nevertheless, the shame of that moment stuck for centuries.
 * Abbie: Hmm...
 * Ichabod: It's all the more reason why settling in this time so important, and of course, having people like you by my side, it's the greatest boon.
 * Ichabod: Hmm... the weight of a secret lifted. It's very freeing.
 * Abbie: Crane...
 * Abbie: It is hard to say... but you'll know one day.

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Abbie: (think) * I'm sorry, Jenny... * '

''A day after the case concerning Marcus Collins had closed, the town seemed to become quieter, but unfortunately, things will not get quiet forever in Sleepy Hollow. Inside the Police Department after midnight, Abbie rushed into the scene when she had received a phone call from Captain Frank Irving. She immediately rushed to the police department when she saw Irving standing in front of her.'' ''Abbie walked to Irving, who immediately accompanied her to the cell. Beside her, there was another woman in middle ages, with long brown hair and thick lips. The doctor was following the two into the corridor.'' ''In a rapid pace, Irving start walking through the corridor. He then looked at the woman behind her as he introduced her to Abbie.'' ''Abbie turned her head back and looked at the woman. They shook their hands warmly.'' Abbie then turned to Irving as the three continued walking to their destination. ''Irving finished the words before he entered the cell. A confused look started to surface on Abbie's face.'' ''Irving did not answer, this time. As the three entered the room beside the cell, Abbie could hear the voice of Ichabod coming from the cell.'' ''As Irving and the doctor stood beside the glass window and looked at the scene where Ichabod interrogating the suspect, Abbie stopped as well. She saw Ichabod's back, but she cannot see the face of the suspect for now. As Ichabod was still speaking to the suspect, the doctor started her analysis.'' ​The doctor looked at Irving once again before she continued. ''Abbie heard the word "she" and looked at the doctor with curiosity. The doctor then looked at Abbie with a face of seriousness. Abbie reacted in an unnerving expression before she heard Ichabod's voice.'' ''Ichabod walked to the side and looked at the suspect... before the face of the suspect was revealed... and Abbie saw her through the glass window.''
 * Abbie: I came as soon as I got the call. What's going on?
 * Irving: Sorry to pull in this late. We just tracked down our perp.
 * Irving: Lieutenant, this is the doctor I mentioned.
 * Abbie: Yes, forensic psychologist?
 * Doctor: That's right.
 * Abbie: Nice to meet you.
 * B2e6c644a39f7bc33f5f71b7ce6fb546--orlando-jones-pie-hole.jpg: Where's Crane?
 * Irving: He's already interrogating the suspect.
 * Abbie: What do you mean? Crane's interrogating the suspect?
 * Ichabod: We know that you saw more than you admitted. Tell us. We mean you no harm.
 * Doctor: The suspect is obviously teeing up an insanity defense.
 * IMG_7747.pngDoctor: She's smart. She knows exactly what's she doing.
 * Abbie: She?
 * Ichabod: Why is that? Why are you deceiving us? What did you see?

It was a younger version of Abbie herself.

<p style="text-align:center;"> - Ichabod: ABBIE!!!

''Ichabod ranted out his words which startled the suspect... or the young Abbie herself. Meantime, Abbie could not believe her eyes. She looked at Irving with shock.'' Abbie looked at the younger version of herself before she shook her head in confusion. Abbie then looked at Irving, who reacted in a poker face. ''Feeling more and more intense, Abbie immediately turned back and opened the door of the cell, but when she entered the cell, she saw Ichabod sitting on the chair. Her younger self had disappeared.''
 * Abbie: What is going on here?
 * Irving: We finally caught Abigail Mills, mostly thanks to the good doctor here.
 * Abbie: Caught? I don't understand. She didn't do anything wrong...
 * Abbie: Did she?
 * Irving: I think you know the answer to that.

''Ichabod... or something that impersonated the real Ichabod Crane... looked at Abbie with his eyes cold and emotionless.'' ''As the eyes of "Ichabod" started to turn white, Abbie then heard a "bang" from behind. She was startled and immediately rushed to the door, trying to open it with all her might. It was locked up, unfortunately.'' ''Strangely, Irving did not answer. Abbie tried hard to open the door. She turned back to the interrogation seat and reacted in horror. No one was on the seat.'' ''Abbie tried to get to another door and push it with her might. Unfortunately, that door was locked as well. Abbie started to struggle in despair.'' ''In desperation, Abbie turned back and saw the creature impersonating Ichabod standing right behind her, with his eyes turned white. Horrified Abbie tried so hard to struggle as she reached yet another locked door.'' ''Abbie went to the glass window and tried to punch the window, before she suddenly saw something coming towards her via the reflection... She turned back with horror.''
 * 103Promo4.jpgod (???): Stop lying, Abbie. The truth will set you free.
 * Abbie: What's going on? Captain?
 * Abbie: THE DOOR'S LOCKED! SIR!!!
 * Abbie: Let me out of here! Someone let me out of here!
 * Abbie: Let me out! Let me out! Let me out! LET ME OUT OF HERE!



It was a pale creature with two hollowed eyes, as streams of sand coming out from it...

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Creature: You have been weighed on the scales and found... wanting. '

''Lying on her bed, Abbie was suddenly awakened by the nightmare as she heard her own cell phone ringing madly. Abbie looked around and found herself on her bed, realizing that she was dreaming. Just then, she noticed her cell phone as she was looking at her alarm clock.''

''It was 5:25 AM. Abbie did not continue to look at the clock. She fetched her phone and answered the call.'' Trying to regain her own sense, Abbie nodded.
 * Abbie: Hello? This is Mills.
 * Caller: [Dispatcher. Emergency response has requested you at 3rd and Main.]
 * Abbie: On my way.



''The destination of Abbie was now surrounded by police forces. Police cars had been surrounding the area, and the area was blocked from the passer-by. When Abbie had arrived at the scene, she found the real Ichabod there as well. She then discussed with him about her dream as they approached to the incident scene.'' Ichabod looked at Abbie with confusion, and Abbie's answer caused him to have a large sweat drop on his forehead. ''Just as they were approaching, Abbie heard Captain Irving's voice calling her name from not far away. Abbie rushed to the police captain.'' ''Irving looked up at an apartment in front of him. Abbie and Ichabod looked up as well, seeing a woman in nightgown standing right outside the window, leaning to the wall beside the window. It was apparent that in a matter of time, she would jump from the building and killed herself.'' ''Hearing this, Abbie widened her eyes in surprise, since she could not understand why a doctor she never knew would know her name and demanded to talk to her. Ichabod was curious as well, and he immediately asked Irving.'' ''Irving answered in a serious tone that no one could find any words to reject him. Abbie then had no choice but went into the department. She walked on the stairs and reached the window, looking outside at the woman who was about to commit suicide. For now, Dr. Vega did not look at Abbie. Therefore, Abbie could not see her face clearly.'' ''Dr. Vega did not answer. Beneath the building, Irving and Ichabod looked at the two above, wanting to know what will happen next and the rescue operation would have any progress.'' ''Dr. Vega did not look at Abbie. She only look aside while mumbling something strange in her mouth.'' As she was talking, Dr. Vega slowly turned her head to Abbie.
 * Ichabod: What kind of dream?
 * Abbie: A really weird one... You were in it.
 * Ichabod: Oh? And what, pray tell, was I doing in your dream?
 * Abbie: Freaking me out even more than usual.
 * Irving: Mills?
 * 20131004nicole-beharie-sleepy-hollow1-660x330.jpg: What is it, captain?
 * Irving: Do you know Dr. Mara Vega?
 * Abbie: No. Should I?
 * Irving: We have our crisis responders up there now trying to talk her down, but she doesn't want to speak to anyone except, apparently, you.
 * Ichabod: Why Lt. Mills?
 * Irving: That's why I need  her  to find out.
 * Abbie: Dr. Vega?
 * Abbie: I'm Lt. Abigail Mills. You want to speak to me?
 * Dr. Vega: It's my fault. Everything she saw was real. I believed her and yet I lied. I should have told the truth.
 * Abbie: About what? Who are you talking about, Doc?

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Dr. Vega: Your sister Jenny. '

''Abbie reacted in shock when she heard the words of the doctor, but what even more surprised her was the face of the doctor. She immediately recognized Dr. Vega as the same female doctor inside her nightmare she had minutes ago, and Abbie was horrified to see Dr. Vega's eyes. Her eyes was completely white, as if it had no pupils.'' Dr. Vega then leaned forward to the empty air in front of her... ''Horrified, Abbie tried to stop the suicidal attempt, but it was too late. As Ichabod and Irving stepped back in shock, as many citizens surrounding the place started to scream, Dr. Vega fell onto the ground in an accelerated speed, until she fell on a car beneath the apartment.''
 * Dr. Vega: It's my fault, Abbie. I deserve it. I've had it coming a long time.  We all have. 
 * Abbie: Wait, don't!

When the police officers on the ground started to approached Dr. Vega, they found out that she was, no doubt, dead.

''Feeling utterly shocked by the event, Abbie looked at scene. She was so shocked that she was incapable of speaking.''

Lyrics
ohhohoho

you'll burn this time

Seeing the violence

It's feeding my mind

No one is saving you

How can you find

A heaven in this hell?

Leave it behind

Hearing your silence

It screams our goodbye

Cannot believe it's an eye for an eye

Life is gone to waste

Angels have faith

I don't want to be a part of his sin

I don't want to get lost in his world

I'm not playing this game

When the shadows remain in the light of day

On the wings of darkness he'll retaliate

He'll be falling from grace

Till the end of all his days

From the ashes of hate

It's a cruel demon's fate

On the wings of darkness

He's returned to stay

There will be no escape

Cause he's fallen far from grace

ohhohoho

What have you done?

Is this what you wanted?

What have you become?

His soul's not forsaken

You're walking alone

From heaven into hell

Now that you know

Your way in this madness

Your powers are gone

Your chains have been broken

You've suffered so long

You will never change.

Angels have faith

I don't want to be a part of his sin

I don't want to get lost in his world

I'm not playing this game

When the shadows remain in the light of day

On the wings of darkness

He'll retaliate

He'll be falling from grace

Till the end of all his days

From the ashes of hate

It's a cruel demon's fate

On the wings of darkness

He's returned to stay

There will be no escape

Cause he's fallen far from grace

Angels have faith

I don't want to be a part of his sin

I don't want to get lost in his world

I'm not playing this game

When the shadows remain in the light of day

On the wings of darkness

He'll retaliate

He'll be falling from grace

Till the end of all his days

From the ashes of hate

It's a cruel demon's fate

On the wings of darkness

He's returned to stay

There will be no escape

Cause he's fallen far from grace

Act 1 - White Eyes
<p style="text-align:center;"> 10 minutes after the suicide

<p style="text-align:center;"> Dr. Vega's Apartment

''The sun had shone upon the town of Sleepy Hollow, but the suicide of Dr. Vega last night had caused many people in neighborhood. Police had arrived in order to death with the suicide scene. When the morning dawn arrived, a team of police cars filled the street. Abbie had already got down from Dr. Vega's apartment with a distressed face.''

Ichabod immediately went towards her with concern. ''Abbie answered in a face as if she was utterly fine, but Ichabod had frowned his eyebrows. Just then, they were approached by Captain Frank Irving.'' ''Abbie looked at Irving before she closed her eyes and sighed. She hated to rewind the event in that fatal night.'' ''Irving, Ichabod and Abbie had alreayd reached an ambulance, where some medics were trying to carry the corpse of Dr. Vega on it. Irving seemed confused by the event.'' ''Just as the trio were reaching the ambulance, Ichabod suddenly felt something strange. He immediately turned and tried to approached one of the medics.'' ''The female medic immediately removed the shroud that covered Dr. Vega's face, which was now covered in blood coming from nosebleed due to her injury. The medic then started to check the eyeball of Dr. Vega. ''
 * Ichabod: Are you all right?
 * Abbie: Yeah, I'm okay.
 * Irving: What happened?
 * 103Promo1.jpgAbbie: I'm not sure. It was bizarre. It was really bizzare. Dr. Vega-- it was like she was sleepwalking, her mind was elsewhere, and her eyes-- they were glazed over white.
 * Irving: Glazed white? Maybe she had prescribed herself with some sort of recreational drug.
 * Abbie: Didn't look like that or anything else I've seen before. All the color was gone.
 * IMG_7753.pngIchabod: Uh, medic, I'd like to see the body before you remove it. I'd like to take a look at her eyes.
 * Medic: Yeah, sure.
 * Medic: It presents as a massive cataract. No sign of trauma, no petechiae--

<p style="text-align:center;">' Boom! '

''Suddenly, the eyeballs of Dr. Vega bursted into sands without any warning, which startled not just the medic, but also Ichabod, Abbie and Irving. The medic immediately moved her hand away, as her words was interrupted.'' ''The medic stepped back. Everyone beside corpse watched with horror as the eye had turned into a mere black hole that was utterly hollowed. Abbie widened her eyes in shock. Ichabod frowned his eyebrows as if he saw something similar before. Irving almost went closer immediatelty.'' ''Ichabod immeidiately turned to look at Abbie. Abbie did not look at him. She merely stared at the corpse of Dr. Vega with a glimmer of horror. Irving then turned back and walked away. Abbie and Ichabod followed him as they went to somewhere with a distance to the scene. Irving looked at the two with confusion.'' ''Just as Ichabod was finishing his analysis, Irving went impatient. He questioned Abbie further.'' As Abbie gave her answer, ​Ichabod seemed irritated that Irving did not allow him to finish. ''Irving looked down on his cell phone, when he began to dig out the records inside the phone. All of a sudden, he remembered that Jenny Mills was currently inside Tarrytwon Psychiatric, and so he want to make sure.'' Abbie nodded as Irving fell into thoughts. When Abbie was finished, ​Irving immediately told what he was about to say to Abbie. ''Irving turned back and walked away. Ichabod and Abbie look at each other before going on their ways. They soon departed themselves from the scene so that no others will hear their own discussion.'' Abbie turned her face to Ichabod. ''Ichabod stopped his pace when he heard Abbie's words. He turned back and looked at Abbie.'' Ichabod paused a bit before he start continuing. Before Ichabod could finish, Abbie immediately interrupted him with impatience. ''Abbie then fell into silence. Ichabod sharpened his eyes, suspecting that this case was connected to something in Abbie's mind which she would not like to share - a dark secret, maybe. After all, Abbie did not tell him what she felt after her encounter with Marcus Collins in their previous case.'' ​Abbie looked aside and then turned back to Ichabod with a sacarstic smile. ''Then, Ichabod narrowed his eyes with a sacarstic look at Abbie as well. As they went passed the cordon, Ichabod lifted it above his head to allow both him and Abbie to go through.''
 * Medic: Whoa!
 * Irving: No one sees or goes near this body until I say. You understand?
 * Irving: What the hell is going on here?
 * Ichabod: A complete stranger summons Lt. Mills to her side before sleepwalking to her death. This after her eyes somehow transmogrified into sand-filled orbs of the purest white...
 * Sleepyhollow_s2_lyndiegreenwood_1200_article_story_large.jpgIrving: What else is going on, Lieutenant?
 * Abbie: She mentioned my sister Jenny. She must have known here, maybe that's how she knew who I was.
 * Irving: Hang on a sec.
 * 207Tarrytown.pngIrving: Did your sister spend any time at Tarrytown Psychiatric?
 * Abbie: First year she was committed, yeah... Been in and out of there for years.
 * Irving: Dr. Vega's one of the resident psychs. I'll get you all of her files. See what you can dig up. In the meantime, let's keep a... * sigh * a lid on this. The last thing we need around here is another episode of The Twilight Zone.
 * 103Promo13.jpgAbbie: Yes, sir.
 * Ichabod: Care to share any additional information you withheld from the captain?
 * Abbie: You know the nightmare I had? You were in it, so was that requisite faceless nightmare monster, but... Vega was there to. Except that it's impossible because I have never met her before.
 * Ichabod: I think our definition of "possible" has been irrevocably broadened.
 * Ichabod: You had a prophetic dream warning you of an impending event, which stands to reason, given that according to Washington's Bible...
 * 103Sandman.pngAbbie: The Book of Revelation fortells of two witnesses, I know. I am a cop in a small town, facing enough weird things in my life, so let's not christen me as a capital "W" witness just yet.
 * Ichabod: Consider what you just saw. This isn't a simply suicide. This petains to the Seven Years of Tribulations.
 * Ichabod: The creature in your nightmare...
 * 103Promo14.jpgAbbie: I barely saw it.
 * Ichabod: Pehaps it is the true cause of the doctor's death. A soldier in the army of evil sent against us...
 * Ichabod: ... Against you, the "capital 'W' witness".
 * Abbie: Maybe, but unless you have an encyclopedia of faceless nightmare monsters, why don't we just start with a little regular detective work here?

As they were discussing, Abbie and Ichabod continued to walk on their way, but they did not notice that there was one dark red haired man with coat and hood, standing not far away from the crowd beside a police officer. ''It was none other than Crow Faux in his disguise. He looked at Ichabod's back and narrowed his eyes in sheer malice. The police officer did not notice his face. He only casually shrugged his shoulder.'' ''Crow snarled in anger. The officer turned to him with confusion.'' The police officer then went away, but Crow still stared at Ichabod in rage. Crow then stormed away in anger.
 * Crow: Who is that man in the black trenchcoat, officer?
 * Police officer: Oh, him? He is a man named Ichabod Crane, whom our captain made into a historical consultant in our place since he claimed that he was from Oxford. Even so, I never trust him.
 * Shin.(AMNESIA).full.1454077.jpgPolice officer: Did you know him?
 * Crow: No, not really, sir.
 * Crow: (think) * It is really you... It is you who made my sister into danger... and made that Lady Van Tassel to throw her into Purgatory! Turns out you're really alive? One day, you shall pay! *

<p style="text-align:center;"> Selina's Office 



Sitting inside her chair with a distraught and angry face, Selina Strawberry held a small mirror inside her hand, as her index finger kept tapping the table anxiously. ''Selina narrowed her eyes in sheer anger and rage. She found out that everything went into a meltdown even after the missing of the Headless Horsman, as well as the death of Christine and the capturing of Nelson Meyers. Selina had a feeling that someone should be responsible for all of this mess, someone she regretted to believe in.'' ''Selina then felt some shaking on her hands, which inticated that her waiting had been paid off. The person had answer her call. It was Michael Langdon, whose face seemed dark and gloomy.'' Biting her lips with nothing but fury, Selina looked aside and immediately whispered to Michael in an angry tone. ''In response, Michael only looked at Selina with a calm face, even if he was facing her fury. Michael's attitude had only made Selina even more upset.  Much to Selina's shock, Michael only shrugged his shoulder and narrowed his eyes.'' Michael paused a bit, before he sighed and continued his own words with a serious and strong tone.
 * Selina: Come on... Come on...
 * Selina: Ah, there it is!
 * Michael: Hmm, Selina?
 * Selina: What was going on? Ever since the presence of the Horseman of Death, the minions of Moloch just kept coming out, from Christine to Nevins, and then a blade! I already called Melancholia, but she won't tell me what was happening.
 * Michael: All in good hand, Selina.
 * Selina: All in good time? Is that what you said? This is not what we said. Now, the whole public is almost in frenzy out there, and if you don't tell me Moloch's own weakness, I'll come and throw you in Hell faster than a runner from East Africa!
 * Michael: Moloch's weakness... Hmm, I guess me and Melancholia is about to reach that, but I can't help you since I have my own problems.
 * 49768056_p10_master1200.jpgSelina: No, you said that you will help me to find the weakness of Moloch to save the town, not dealing with your own buisness. This is our buisness, OK?
 * Michael: Selina...

''Shocked and infuriated, Selina heard this and immediately clenched her fist. She then narrowed her eyes, finally having understand that Michael did not want to help her now... or he never wanted to help her all along.'' ''Selina's words were like arrows that pierced through the armor of Michael. Enraged, Michael narrowed his eyes as his face started to turn red.''
 * Michael: ... You have to take responsiblity for what you have to face on your own!
 * Selina: Ha, now I have seen the truth. You had really made Nevins to take the body of Betsy Ross with the blood of Christine for some purpose? I assume you are behind all of this right? I should not believe you from the start. You're a pack of lies. You're a liar.
 * Michael: Stop it. Stop calling me that.

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Selina: YOU PHONY, LYING BASTARD!!! '

Before Michael could finish, Selina immediately raised her gloved right hand and smashed the mirror into pieces, as if her hand was made of some kind of metal. ''Staring to calm herself down, Selina then turned back to her seat before sitting down and start opening the radio. She hated the fact that she could not went to Michael's place in order to beat him.'' ''As Selina opened the radio, a familiar voice suddenly appeared in her ears. It was a deep female voice speaking in a calm tone. Selina was supposed to calm herself down when she opened the radio, but the female voice had only accumulated Selina's bad moods.'' Hearing the voice of Peach coming from the radio, Selina narrowed her eyes and twitched her lips.
 * Michael: Stop--
 * Selina: Now, I feel much better.
 * SaeIcon1.pngSelina: I should know that I should not believe him! He wasted me many precious time! If I saw him one more time trying to trick me with those false promise, I'm gonna beat him so hard that Chuck Norris will be impressed!
 * Phyllis Peach: [About the recent attack on the corrupt official, Arthur Weissman, I suspect that there were some kind of hiding force behind his murder. Weissman could be nothing but a puppet used by some kind of cult, which threatened the safety of our town. So far, this is my theory, but I will start investigation as soon as possible.]

 * -美国恐怖故事--第二季-第1-00_32_36--20171002-080712-1-.pngSister Mary Eunice: J-Jenny? Jenny Mills?

''Sister Mary Eunice looked at Ichabod and Abbie with surprise in her face. After returning to the Archives, Ichabod and Abbie started to dig out anything of Jenny's interrogation to see if then could find any, when Sister Mary Eunice approached them. When Sister Mary Eunice heard about the problems of Jenny, she was surprised and the looked aside with a sad look, closing her eyes.''
 * Sister Mary Eunice: So... this is meant to be fate.

''Abbie widened her eyes in confusion, as she walked towards the nun. Ichabod still stood at his position, but he was confused as well.''
 * Abbie: What do you mean "meant to be fated"?
 * Sister Mary Eunice: No, nothing, it's just...

''Sister Mary Eunice looked aside and tried to avoid eye contact with Abbie, as if something made her unnerved. She closed her eyes before she took a deep breath with dismay'' ''​Abbie then widened her eyes in surprise, but soon she calmed herself down. Before his death, Corbin was doing a research for those dark secrets in Sleepy Hollow about demons, and it included Abbie and Jenny's encountering with the demons.''
 * Lily-Rabe_595.jpgSister Mary Eunice: It's just coincidence. I happen to have the interrogation files from Dr. Vega in the Archives, which Corbin somehow retrieved it.

''However, Abbie still could not understand what the nun meant in her use of phrase, and she did not know why Sister Mary Eunice made such a reaction. Judging by Sister Mary Eunice's reaction, it appeared as if she had met Jenny some time ago.''

''However, Abbie did not want to waste time on this. All she wanted to know now was the truth behind Dr. Vega's unfortunate demise.'' ''Sister Mary Eunice nodded and she immediately went to get the tapes and files. Soon, Sister Mary Eunice and Ichabod began to view the tape as Abbie went on to look for clues in Dr. Vega's notebooks.''
 * Abbie: Very well, Sister. Please show us.

Dr. Vega's Video Tape
''Inside the tape, a younger Jenny was sitting on a chair, looking at the camera. Dr. Vega was standing beside her, saying her questions.'' ''​Dr. Vega then sat down beside Jenny, looking her in the eyes. Jenny was sitting with a tiresome face.''
 * Dr. Vega: One more time from the beginning, Jenny.
 * Young Jenny: I saw a demon. I heard a voice say, "Come and see." Then, I wasn't in the forest anymore
 * Dr. Vega: Where do you you think you were?

Real World
''Sitting next to several other tapes that had the words "MILLS, Jenny" on it, Ichabod looked at the screen with great care, but he did not notice that his elbow accidentally hit a button on the remote, causing the video being rewind back rapidly. Jenny's words became unrecognizable.''

''Ichabod and Sister Mary Eunice were both startled, and Ichabod immeidately turned to the remote with an unnerving look. When Sister Mary Eunice was about to help Ichabod, Abbie suddenly cut in with the notebook of Vega in her hand.'' ''As Abbie began to read, Ichabod fetched the remote and tried to stop the video rewinding itself. Sister Mary Eunice did not know what to do to both helping Ichabod and not letting Abbie to know she did not pay full attention.'' ''Before Abbie could finish, she heard some strange, unrecognizable and scary voice coming from behind. It was caused by Ichabod, who pressed the wrong button on the remote and slowed the video down.''
 * IMG_7758.pngAbbie: Listen to this-- Vega's private notes.
 * Abbie: "Jenny exhibits no other signs of delusion."
 * IMG_7760.pngYoung Jenny: (video; slow down) [EEEEEHAI... SSSAAAAAWWW... EEEEAA... DEEEMMMWAAO... EEEHAI... HEEERRRD EEAA WVVVVO...]

''Irritated, Abbie immediately looked at Ichabod, who widened his eyes in awkwardness. He was a stranger to video tapes, so far.'' ''Ichabod did not know how to answer, and Sister Mary Eunice had to do facepalm. They both reacted like two childre being scolded by their parents. Irritated, Abbie closed the screen.'' Abbie stared at Ichabod before she started to go on reading the note. After reading, Abbie lifted her head up to Ichabod and Sister Mary Eunice, who both turned more serious. Sister Mary Eunice stopped acting weird and looked at Ichabod and Abbie. Abbie and Sister Mary Eunice both looked at Ichabod, who coughed a bit to keep calm. ''Abbie then sharped her eyes and behaved more serious, as she began her analysis. Ichabod listened to her analysis and could not help himself from putting his face on his palm.'' When Abbie spoke in a harsh tone on her own QED, Ichabod immidately stood up from his chair, looking at Abbie when she had an expression as if like she did not care what was going on. ''Then, Abbie immediately turned to Ichabod with a more surprised look. She then realized that her analysis could not explain the whole thing.'' ''Ichabod lifted his head a bit with surprise. Then, Sister Mary Eunice immediately narrowed her eyes and crossed her arm in front of her chest.''
 * Abbie: What did you do?
 * IMG_7761.pngIchabod: Sorry. Continue.
 * Abbie: "The better I get to know her, the more I believe she's telling the truth."
 * Abbie: There are at least three other similar mentions. Vega knew that Jenny wasn't crazy.
 * Ahsa5sme.jpgIchabod: Yet she allowed her to remain institutionlized, presumably from fear of censure.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: Believe me, fear is a pretty powerful motivator.
 * Ichabod: Fear causes inaction. Inaction causes pain. QED, fear causes pain.
 * Ichabod: Ahem, I'll grant it's a syllogism, but you get my meaning.
 * Abbie: Vega feels responsible for keeping Jenny committed. The guilt eats her up inside until she can't take it anymore. She seeks me out for some kind of absolution, then jumps. QED, case closed.
 * Ichabod: You're forgetting about the doctor's white eyes, about the sand that poured from them, and your prophetic dream about Dr. Vega.
 * Abbie: And Vega's last words.



She had the same feelings of surprise as Ichabod had.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: Vega's last words?

Abbie nodded and started to mumble. ​Irritated, Abbie sighed once more. Sister Mary Eunice immediately went forward to draw her conclusions to Abbie, which had somehow drew the exact conclusion of the connection behind those recent events that aimed at Abbie and Ichabod.
 * Abbie: Before she jumped, she said that she had it coming. "We" had it coming.
 * Ichabod: And you question that this death has to do with your role as a Witness?
 * Abbie: Fine, let's say that this is some evil minion sent after us by the demon in the woods. What does it want? Why hurt Dr. Vega, and what do I have to do with any of it?
 * Pocantico_Grove.jpgSister Mary Eunice: My best guess is the enemy wants what all enemies want: to thwart his opponent. The truth behind all this shall be uncover by you, Abbie, as a part of Corbin's final wish.

''Ichabod seemed to realize it as well. He spoke to Abbie with a tone like a patient teacher.''


 * Hungary.full.1024263.jpgIchabod: Sister Mary Eunice is right, Lt. Mills. Those incidents were not seperated, and they were not just coincidence that merely come and go without any reason. They were apparently set up by an unknown force which appeared in your childhood. All of these we have endured had a reason coming. They represented our darkest past and now, Abbie, they returned to have us haunted. For example, the Horseman, Christine, Marcus Collins and the Ripper are from my past nightmare, and now maybe the monster this time... represents YOUR dark past.

Ichabod paused a bit before he continued to persuade Abbie. ''Abbie immeidately refused. Ichabod was confused by her reaction, and Sister Mary Eunice looked at Abbie with a gloomy face.'' Before Ichabod could finish, Abbie immediately interrupted him. ''Abbie then looked at Sister Mary Eunice's face, who seemed to be angry with her words. With a sigh, Abbie then turned to Ichabod with an unwilling face.'' Abbie then went out of the room, and Ichabod went on following her, as Sister Mary Eunice watched her to leave. With a sad face, Sister Mary Eunice sat on her chair and bit her lips. With a sigh, Sister Mary Eunice then took a look on Corbin's photo on the table not far away.
 * Ichabod: I know it, Ms. Mills. Clearly, you're a threat to whatever appeared in the woods as is your sister. We must speak to her at once.
 * Abbie: No, it's not happening.
 * Ichabod: I understand you've not spoken to your sister in some time, but...
 * -美国恐怖故事--第二季-第8-00_31_08--20170309-131131-2-.pngAbbie: We don't talk, period.
 * Ichabod: What time doesn't change, death will, don't you suppose? Now, I'd rather keep the latter at bay.
 * Abbie: Okay. You want to see her? Let's go. See for yourself.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: (think) * Abbie... *
 * Sister Mary Eunice: I am sorry. You have to embrace the truth by yourself. One day, you'll realize how much Corbin did to make you face the darkness. That's the time you will fully embrace your destiny.

<p style="text-align:center;"> 40 meters away from the main building 

''It took only 20 minutes for Abbie to drive Ichabod to Tarrytown Psychatric, a church-like institution with brown wall as well as windows. After his arrest, Nelson Meyers was held captive in this place, and so was Jenny who was sent back to the place weeks ago after being released once. Walking down from her van, Abbie walked alongside Ichabod all the way towards Tarrytown with a face of dismay.'' Ichabod stopped and turned back with a sacarstic tone. ''Ichabod lifted his left eyebrow in dismay. Abbie sighed.'' Amused, Ichabod then sighed in relief. ''Speaking in a sarcastic tone, Ichabod then turned back to the door of Tarrytown, all the way without even looking back one bit. Abbie had to followed him in a helpless face.''
 * Abbie: This is pointless. All of our personal issues aside, she's not gonna help me, because I'm a cop and she's a criminal.
 * Ichabod: Oh, she's a criminal now?
 * Abbie: Do you know why she's locked up in here? She broke into a sporting goods store and stole a bunch of survival gear, over 4,000 bucks' worth of stuff. Then, she went into the police prestinct as well.
 * Ichabod: Does your current law enforcement incarcerate all theives in sanatoriums?
 * Abbie: She told the cops that hse needed it because she was preparing... for the End of Days.
 * Ichabod: Oh, well, she's perfectly sane, then.

Walking all the way into the hallway, with Ichabod by her side, Abbie steadily went to the female orderly at the front desk. ''The orderly looked at Abbie with confusions on her face. Abbie went on to explain.'' ​"......" ''Abbie immediately answered with a calm smile. The orderly nodded and immediately opened her headphone.'' "......?!"
 * Abbie: Lt. Abbie Mills to see Jennifer Mills.
 * Abbie: I'm her sister.
 * Orderly: I don't know Jenny had a sister.
 * IMG_7764.pngAbbie: She does.
 * Orderly: One second.  Extension 49 , please.

''When the ordely spoke the number, 49, Abbie immediately widened her eyes in shock. She remembered something the spirit of Corbin told her days ago.''

Abbie's Flashback
<p style="text-align:center;"> Scene from LOTM: Witnesses of Sleepy Hollow Horsemen Saga - Christine's Might (Sub Arc Finale) 

''Corbin's office was full of In silence, ever since it was closed. No other officers had yet to enter the room until Abbie went to that office with the words "Sheriff August Corbin" on its door, and she opened the office, trying to say her last goodbye to her late mentor. However, she then got a surprise.''

''Surprisingly, Abbie Corbin reading his files inside there. Seeing Abbie coming inside, Corbin smiled to her.'' Abbie stepped closer to Corbin, ignoring the fact that he was a ghost or perhaps even an illusion. ​Corbin still smiled cryptically. ​Abbie shook her head in confusion. ​Abbie bit her lips when she looked closer at Corbin. ''​All the while, Corbin still kept his smile. Abbie sighed in helplessness.'' After sometime of silence, Corbin smiled and nodded. ​Abbie looked up to Corbin before Ichabod came behind her. ​Abbie turned back to see Ichabod behind her, but when she turned back, she was surprised to see Corbin had disappeared...
 * Corbin: You look lost, kid.
 * Abbie: What is this? (paused) I'm dreaming, right?
 * August_Corbin.pngCorbin: Well, what difference does that make? I'm here right now, aren't I? With you?
 * Abbie: Look, if you're gonna haunt me, be helpful. Okay?
 * Corbin: Okay, what seems to be the problem?
 * Abbie: Ooh... "What seems to be the problem?" How about, what the hell is happening here? You were ahead of me the whole time. Were you ever planning on telling me anything?
 * Abbie_in_the_Necromancer.pngCorbin: Would you believe me if I did?
 * Abbie: Maybe.
 * Corbin: Maybe not. You spent a lot of time running away from what happened to you, Abbie.
 * Abbie: I asked you to be helpful. I don't know how to do this.
 * Corbin: You're scared, aren't you?
 * Abbie: Scared? Yeah, and I'm furious... and outraged that you didn't tell me...
 * Corbin: Good, that's progress. Ever since you were little, you let your life be ruled by fear. You're so afraid about what you don't understand that it kept you from seeing who you really are... or what you were meant to do.
 * Abbie: Which is... ?
 * Corbin: The only person that can tell you that... is you. That's what faith is, honey.
 * 318Promo19.jpgAbbie: I really... miss you.
 * Corbin: Don't be afraid of No. 49, Abbie. That's where you find you're not alone.
 * Ichabod: Lieutenant?
 * Ichabod: Are you all right?

Nowadays
<p style="text-align:center;"> Don't be afraid of No. 49, Abbie...

''The words of Corbin echoed in the mind of Abbie, making her to feel shock. She began to figure out why Sister Mary Eunice said "fate" in her words. Her mind was interrupted when Ichabod spoke to her.'' ''Abbie immediately reacted and went out of her mind wandering. She shook her head a little.'' Ichabod did not answer, and Abbie lowered her head in dismay. ''Abbie let out a bitter smile and shook her head. Just then, the orderly hung up the phone.'' ''Ichabod and Abbie turned to the ordely, and Abbie sadly smiled and nodded. Ichabod, however, was both surprised and disbelieved.'' ''Abbie turned back and left, but Ichabod was fraustrated. He immediately turned to Abbie and started his complaint.'' Ichabod then shook his head helplessly, but then, he had an idea and had his eyes immediately lit up. Abbie looked at Ichabod with a hopeless face, before she shook her head with no emotions. Ichabod then turned to the orderly without hestitation.
 * Ichabod: When was the last time you saw your sister?
 * Abbie: I'm sorry. Saw or talked to?
 * Abbie: Last time I talked to her was already five years ago, before she was placed back row of a county courthouse. She was arrested for breaking and entering the first time. I tried to offer her help. It's complicated.
 * Orderly: I'm sorry, Ms. Mills, but Jenny doesn't want to talk to you.
 * Abbie: Thank you.
 * Ichabod: You're an officer of the law. Is she not obligated to speak to you?
 * Abbie: I can force the issue and make Jenny talk to me, but taht isn't gonna get us what we need.
 * Ichabod: Would you be amenable to my speaking with her?
 * Abbie: If she's amenable. Sure, knock yourself out.
 * Ichabod: Would you, again, please?

<p style="text-align:center;"> 6 minutes later  <p style="text-align:center;"> In front of Room 49 

''Ichabod did not take long to get the permission from Jenny. Another orderly then led Ichabod to the room of Jenny and opened the door for him. Ichabod then went in and saw a young, dark-skinned woman in average height standing at the window. She had a curly braid at the back of her head.''

''Ichabod assumed that it was Jennifer Mills. He politely walked into the door.'' ''Jenny heard Ichabod's voice and turned back, looking at the mysterious man with a thick British accent standing in front of her. With no emotions on he face, Jenny surveyed at the man in trenchcoat with her eyes, from top to bottom.'' ''Ichabod did not answer. Looking at this man she never met before, Jenny was utterly confused.'' Chuckling sacartically and walked closer at the left side of Ichabod. ''Ichabod was not amused. He rolled his eyes and looked elsewhere.'' ​Jenny sat on her bed and looked at Ichabod as he acted aloof. ''​However, Ichabod looked at Jenny with a serious face. Jenny stopped her sacarstic smile when she noticed this.'' ''​Jenny stared at Ichabod for ten second as if he was an alien, before she peeked aside to see if anyone had passed. Then, she let out a sacarstic smile again.''
 * Ichabod: Thank you for seeing me, Ms. Mills.
 * Jenny: Curiousity got the best of me.
 * Jenny: Who are you? Abbie's new boyfriend?
 * Ichabod: We are amicable, and yes, I am a male, but I suspect you're implying something else.
 * IMG_7749.pngJenny: What's your name, "tall, dark and British"?
 * Ichabod: My name is Ichabod Crane.
 * Jenny: Ha...
 * Jenny: What do your friends call you? "Icky"?
 * Ichabod: Not if they wish to remain my friends.
 * IMG_7772.pngJenny: Hmm, sense of humor, too.
 * Ichabod: I saw the demon in the woods. The one when you and your sister saw as children.
 * IMG_7773.pngJenny: Shh... They lock you up in here when you talk crazy.

''Ichabod did not change his expression to Jenny's insinuation. He then looked aside before looking back to Jenny, but then he noticed that Jenny seemed much angrier.'' ''​Ichabod seemed surprised by what Jenny said, and he looked at Jenny with confusion. Jenny merely gave him a smug smirk.'' ​Ichabod fell silent and fell into thoughts, before he grabbed a chair and put it in front of Jenny's bed. ​Ichabod then walked forward and sat on the chair. ''​Jenny heard this and reacted in a surprised frown. Ichabod paused for four seconds and then continued.'' ​Jenny lit up her eyes in confusion. ''​Jenny closed her eyes and clenched her teeth. She then glared at Ichabod impatiently.'' However, ​Ichabod did not stop and continue to speak in a warning tone. ''​Jenny widened her eyes when she heard Ichabod mentioned that Corbin had died. Something in Ichabod's words had somehow jogged her memory.'' ''Looking at Ichabod, Jenny then stood up and walked towards the window, putting her hand on her cheek. She then fell into thoughts before she turned to Ichabod as well.'' However, Ichabod immediately stood up and tried to persuade Jenny even further. ''​Jenny looked up into Ichabod's face, glaring at him. She immediately shook her head in a pessimistic attitude.'' ​Then, she looked at Ichabod and spoke in a semi-threatening tone.
 * Jenny: That's why I'm in here... and she's out there.
 * IMG_7775.pngJenny: Hmm... She didn't tell you, did she? Ask her. Make her tell you all the dirty details. I wonder what you'll think of her once you know.
 * Ichabod: I'm afraid I have some regrettable news.
 * Ichabod: Your former doctor, Dr. Vega, tragically leapt to her death last night.
 * Ichabod: I'm very sorry. Your sister was the last person she spoke to. The doctor said, "We've all had it coming."
 * Ichabod: What did she mean?
 * Jenny: I don't know.
 * Ichabod: You do know there are things in Sleepy Hollow that are not of this realm. What do you think could have killed the doctor?
 * Jenny: It's time to go.
 * Ichabod: The Four Horsemen are coming.
 * Jenny: You're a liar.
 * Ichabod: The first is already here. He beheaded Sheriff Corbin and Reverend Knapp before he fled from us.
 * IMG_7776.pngIchabod: You're not mental insana, Ms. Mills. I don't believe you are. Neither does your sister.
 * Jenny: If you mean what you say... then you know there's nothing much I can do for you. You already know what I do.
 * IMG_7774.pngIchabod: Help us fight the Horseman's army.
 * Jenny: Help you?
 * Jenny: It's all over but the crying. My conscience is clear.

<p style="text-align:center;"> - Jenny: Ask Abbie if she could say the same.

''Then, Ichabod only looked at Jenny without saying a word. He then promptly went away, as Jenny looked at him with fiery rage in her eyes.''

Walking in the corridor with Abbie, Ichabod questioned her in a serious face since he could not understand what Jenny was referred to, but Abbie tried to avoid the answer. ''​Narrowed his eyes, Ichabod was never convinced. He and Abbie walked all the way out of the door of Tarrytown.'' Without any respond, Abbie seemed annoyed and she paced quicker downstairs, but Ichabod immediately rushed towards her, trying to keep her pace. ''​Abbie did not answer. Ichabod was even more incensed by her attitude.'' ''The two then stopped in the same time, as they reached into the parking lot. Abbie looked at Ichabod as he sharped his eyes in a serious face.''
 * IMG_7778.pngIchabod: Lieutenant, please. What's the cause of this rift between you and Ms. Jenny?
 * Abbie: I told you, it's complicated.
 * IMG_7779.pngIchabod: I was born more than two centuries ago, and my wife is prisoner in some otherworldly realm. I'm no strangers to complications.
 * Ichabod: Ms. Mills, stop. What appeared when Marcus Collins delved into your mind?
 * Ichabod: What happened with you and your sister is between you and your sister, but your secret is in the way of a truth we must uncover.

For the first time, he started to scold Abbie. ''Abbie then looked at Ichabod, who still looked at her seriously. He did not seem to speak it as a joke. Finally, with no alternative choice, Abbie let out a sigh helplessly.'' Ichabod nodded as a hint to make her speak out, in a manner that he confessed his previous dark secret before.
 * IMG_7781.pngIchabod: The consequences of keeping this secret could be dire.
 * Abbie: I'm gonna trust you with something that I've never told anybody, not a shrink, not a priest, not Sheriff Corbin.
 * Abbie: When Jenny and I saw that thing in the woods...

Abbie's Flashback
<p style="text-align:center;"> 13 years ago 

<p style="text-align:center;"> Sleepy Hollow Woods 

''Pushing her bike together with Jenny beside her, a young Abbie walked on the road in the woods before she suddenly heard a strange voice. Abbie and Jenny turned back immediately, and Abbie saw four blurry white trees not far away from her, before a blurry gray figure with a pair of horns started to emerge from the ground.''

''Abbie looked at the scene with horror... before she suddenly passed out.''

<p style="text-align:center;"> - Abbie: (narrator) I remember waking up... 

''​After awakening from her coma, the young Abbie found herself lying on the ground, lying beside Jenny and her bike. Abbie looked around in confusion, as Jenny not far away started to regain her conciousness as well.''

<p style="text-align:center;"> '- Abbie: (narrator) I felt like I only slept for minutes. Appatrently, it had been four days. And the whole town had been looking for us.'



''Just as the sisters looked around in confusion, they saw a middle-aged bald man rushed towards them. It was a local rancher who knew the sisters well. As he was about to reach the sisters, the rancher looked aside and saw something weird not far away, which was the same monster that the Mills Sisters saw in the woods four days ago, wandering itself in the forest before it disappeared all of a sudden.'' ''Abbie and Jenny looked up to that direction as well, seeing the mysterious demon once again, with horror in their eyes. One moment later, relieving from his brief moment of apall, the rancher began to call for help when he noticed the sisters.'' ''​As the man cried for help, a dozens of police officers and some guard hounds began to arrive to the place, and they managed to locate where Abbie and Jenny were sitting. The rancher then turned to look at the place where that strange figure was wandering, but he was shocked to find that it never appeared again.''
 * Rancher: What the... ?
 * Rancher: I found them! Hey, over here!

<p style="text-align:center;"> '- Abbie: (narrator) * They asked a lot of questions that I didn't want to answer. *'

<p style="text-align:center;"> Sleepy Hollow Police Department 

<p style="text-align:center;"> Interrogation Room 

<p style="text-align:center;"> 3 hours later 



''Sitting side by side in an interrogation room, Abbie and Jenny had to face an interrogator who was wearing a white suit and a black tie. He was a doctor from Tarrytown.'' Young Abbie and Jenny looked at each other and did not seem to know what to do, but then Abbie spoke in a calm voice, whispering to Jenny. But Jenny didn't listen. As Jenny was speaking, Abbie had to close her eyes in helplessness.
 * Doctor: Someone else was in the woods. Can you describe him?
 * Young Abbie: (whisper) * Don't say anything. Follow my lead. *
 * Young Jenny: A man... come out of the ground.

<p style="text-align:center;"> '- Abbie: (narrator) * She didn't listen. She told him what we saw. She told him that I saw it... and that rancher who found us saw it, too. *'

The more Jenny spoke, the more distraught Abbie became.
 * Young Jenny: ... pale skin... He was skinny...

<p style="text-align:center;"><u style="text-align:center;">'- Abbie: (narrator) * When she was done, the doctor turned to me. *'

''Abbie was falling into silence for a moment. Worried, Jenny looked at Abbie with her eyes widened.''
 * IMG_7724.PNGDoctor: Abbie... did you see this... thing, as well?
 * Young Jenny: Yes, she did!
 * Young Jenny: Tell him!

However, Abbie immediately reacted by shooking her head, with some fear on her face. ''Jenny was furious when she heard Abbie's denial, and she could hardly control her feelings. She immediately ranted at Abbie in anger, but Abbie looked at Jenny with guilt in her eyes.''
 * Young Abbie: No, I didn't see anything .
 * IMG_7788.pngYoung Jenny: ABBIE!!!

The doctor immediately raised his hand to calm her down, but Jeny was still protesting. ''Abbie, however, remained her attitude in an apathic face while looking at the doctor. Jenny immediately slammed the table in fury as she yelled at Abbie.'' ''The doctor then made a gesture to two police officers. They immediately went to take Jenny away, as Jenny was so desperated trying to persuade Abbie.'' ''Before Jenny could finish, the two police officers started to drag Jenny's arms from behind with brute force. Jenny started to struggle desperately.'' ''Tearfully crying in despair, Jenny was dragged away out of the room. Looking at her sister being dragged away, Abbie lowed down her head with a guilty face.''
 * Doctor: It's all right, Jenny.
 * Young Jenny: She's lying!
 * Young Abbie: I didn't see anything.
 * Young Jenny: Why are you lying?!
 * Young Abbie: I'm not. I didn't see anything.
 * IMG_7789.pngYoung Jenny: Tell them what you saw! Tell them what...
 * Young Jenny: Don't touch me! Tell them what you saw, Abbie! Tell them!
 * Young Abbie: ......



<p style="text-align:center;"> - Jenny: What's wrong with you!?

Nowadays
After telling her story with her eyes closed, Abbie then looked at Ichabod with a serious stare as her eyes opened. ''​Confused by the informations concerning Abbie's parents, Ichabod immediately frowned his eyebrows. However, Abbie turned back and started to reach her van.''
 * Abbie: I told Jenny to keep her mouth shut about what we saw. Our parents were out of the picture, we finally landed in a decent foster home...
 * Ichabod: Your parents were... "Out of picture"?
 * IMG_7794.pngAbbie: That is a story for another day. The point is, we would have been in enough trouble if they found out that we were in the woods sneaking beers after school, but if we started talking about demons and all that... I told her we would be put back in the system.
 * Ichabod: So you said nothing.
 * Abbie: Like she should have.
 * Ichabod: And you were allowed to stay in the foster home while she was relocated.

''Facing Ichabod's serious face, Abbie did not respond. She merely looked aside. Ichabod, however, walked two paces closer to Abbie.'' ​Abbie seemed confused by what Ichabod referred to her.
 * Ichabod: You were afraid. You lied because you were afraid, not only of the creature, but of the earthly consequences of your fate... but you do realize there's no need to be frightened still.
 * Abbie: Sorry?
 * Ichabod: You were frightened then, you still are today.
 * Abbie: Of what?

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Ichabod: Of admitting the truth, that you turned your back on Ms. Jenny. '

''Hearing Ichabod's explanation, Abbie looked down in a sad face, falling into silence for a moment... and then she sighed.'' Ichabod look away from Abbie for a brief moment, but he immediately turned back to look at her. The name of the rancher was Mr. Garrett Gillespie. ''Nodding his head, Ichabod immediately knew what to do next. He then paced towards the van of Abbie with a new plan in his mind.'' Nodded, Abbie opened the door and went into the driver seat.
 * Abbie: Look, you're right. What's between me and my sister... is between me and my sister. 
 * Ichabod: She told the doctor that you saw a demon, and the rancher who found you saw it as well.
 * IMG_7798.pngAbbie: Mr. Gillespie?
 * Abbie: Yeah... He never admitted to seeing anything. Probably because it would have cost him the 15 minutes of fame he got from being a small-town hero... but he knew. He never told.
 * Ichabod: We should go pay Mr. Gillespie a visit.

<p style="text-align:center;"> Meanwhile  <p style="text-align:center;"> Gillespie Ranch 

''Inside the house of Mr. Gillespie, the owner of the house was working inside a workshop with wooden carvings. After a long time of work, Mr. Gillespie was stressed out, so he sat down on his couch. Holding a bottle of beer in his hand, he took some from it and relaxed himself. Then, Mr. Gillespie yawned and had an attempt to take a nap.''

''Mr. Gillespie slept for a while until he suddenly heard a loud noise coming from the other side of the house. He awakened and looked aside with confusion. Mr. Gilliespie stood up slowly and walked towards the other side.''


 * IMG_7802.pngMr. Gillespie: Paige?

''Paige was the name of his wife, Mrs. Gilliespie. Mr. Gillespie thought the noise was caused by his wife, who was a kind but somehow clumsy woman.''

''After standing up from his couch, Mr. Gillespie walked forward with curiousity, unknowing that a nail at the side of the table and pinned into his leg. He had to walk aside to pull himself from the nail that pinned him.''
 * IMG_7801.pngMr. Gillespie: AAH!!!

''Mr. Gillespie let out a yell and looked at his leg. He quickly covered his wound with a towel, failing to notice that a slender sillhotte had passed by him in a distance not very far away.'' ''After brushing off the blood on his leg, Mr. Gillespie threw the towel on the table. He turned and continued to walk forward, calling for his wife.'' ''Mr. Gillespie carefully walked into another room of his workshop as his face turned more confused. He looked into the dark room with his eyebrows frowned, unknowing what was happening.'' ''Mr. Gillespie continued to walk into the gloomy room, as he looked around and search for the cause of the noise. Suddenly, the door had closed. It slammed to close itself and let out a noise, quickly drawing the man's attention.''
 * Mr. Gillespie: Paige?
 * IMG_7803.pngMr. Gillespie: Is that you?

''Mr. Gillespie was alerted. Quickly realizing something went wrong, he slowly and steadily pulled a gun out from a drawer in front of him. Armed with his gun, Mr. Gillespie looked from left to right, searching for any sign of an intruder.''

''Suddenly, Mr. Gillespie felt someone was behind him. He turned back in horror as he saw a towering and skinny figure, with a pair of hollowed eyes, sandy white skin and had no mouth, was standing behind him. Panicked, Mr. Gillespie immediately shoot at the figure before it suddenly disappeared.''

Finding no trace of that mysterious monster, Mr. Gillespie could do nothing but staring at the empty air with horror in his eyes.

<p style="text-align:center;"> Meanwhile <p style="text-align:center;"> Westchester County Police Department  <p style="text-align:center;"> Police Office 

''Walking into the corridor, Captain Irving had a bad mood. He walked straight into the office where every police officers were supposed to work on their duties.'' ''In an angry face, Irving lifted a broken sign which showed a horserider on it, but a part of the sign was cut off, leaving the rider on the sign with no head. It was the very same sign that the Headless Horseman broke when he murdered Reverend Knapp.''
 * Irving: Who hung this in my office?

All of the officers at the scene turned to take a look at the sign, including Luke Morales, and many of them were trying to hide their feelings of being amused. Irving, however, was utterly unimpressed. Luke sighed and stood up from his seat in an apologetic face. ''Keeping in his straight face, Irving walked towards Luke and looked at him sacarstically. Luke, however, attempt to dig a hole on the ground so that he could hide inside it.'' ''When Irving spoke those two words, Luke was relived as he thought his superior will scold him instead of giving such a compliment. Chuckled, Luke and Irving shook their hands.'' Irving look aside briefly. Luke nodded with a smile. ''Luke's smile faded and nodded. Just then, a duty officer arrived into the office with a report in his hands.'' Irving then turned to Luke before he walked away. Irving then left, leaving Luke alone in the office while he start falling into thoughts.
 * Irving: Five people are dead, including two of your own, and you think, just because you heard a rumor about a Headless Horseman running around town, it's all a big joke?
 * Luke: It was me, sir. It's just a stupid prank. You know, something we dod when someone new joins the force.
 * Irving: Good one.
 * IMG_7810.pngIrving: Morales, right?
 * Luke: Yes, sir.
 * Irving: You used to date with Lt. Mills.
 * Luke: Yeah. Yeah, how'd you know that, sir?
 * Irving: Assume I know everything.
 * IMG_7809.png officer: Captain, we've got a report of shots fired at the Gillespie Ranch on Pine Road. Tactical's en route.
 * Irving: Copy that.
 * Irving: If you need me, I'll be at Gillespie Ranch.

<p style="text-align:center;"> 15 minutes later  <p style="text-align:center;"> Gillespie Ranch 

''When the van of Abbie arrived at Gillespie Ranch after 15 minutes of ride, it stopped in front of a group of police cars. Abbie immediately opened the door of the van and quickly walked down from it.''

''In surprise, Abbie immediately spotted Irving standing in front of the house, and she quickly rushed to him, followed by Ichabod. Irving turned back and saw the duo, and he was confused by their presence.'' ''Irving frowned his eyebrows when he saw Abbie, and he deduced that Ichabod was with her as well. He was not pleased with it when it was confirmed that Ichabod was following Abbie to him.'' As Abbie looked at Irving who was keeping his straight face, Ichabod looked at the house.
 * Abbie: Captain? What's going on?
 * Irving: What are you two doing here? I didn't call you.
 * Abbie: It seems our investigation has dovetailed with yours, sir.
 * IMG_7812.png: What's going on?

Keeping his face filled with confusion as well as doubt, Irving then turned to the house as well with his eyes narrowed. Hearing Irving's words, Ichabod broke his silence when he started to think about Irving's description of the case. Irving looked at Ichabod with a confused look, but then he heard a report from another officer. ''Irving frowned his eyebrows and looked aside. Abbie widened her eyes in surprise. Ichabod looked up and sighed. That reminded him the same night when Dr. Vega committed suicide.'' Nodded to show his agreementm Irving then turned his head once more and looked at Abbie. ''Not long afterwards, equipped with a gun and a bullet-proof vest, Abbie immediately took the order and approached the ranch. Irving then called to the team with his walkie-talkie.''
 * Irving: We got a report of shots fired inside the house. Just pulled up. Found ourselves in a full-on hostage situation. The suspect has his wife at gunpoint, won't talk to anybody.
 * IMG_7813.pngIchabod: I take it the suspect's name is Gillespie.
 * Police officer: [Captain, Mr. Gillespie is asking to speak to Lt. Mills.]
 * 103Promo7.jpgIchabod: This seems familiar.
 * Irving: You got this?
 * Abbie: I got it.
 * Irving: Lt. Mills is coming in.

As Abbie began to approach the house, with her gun in her hands, other police officers were all preparing themselves surrounding the entire bungalow, raising their snipers and pointed it into the house.

They would take actions fire the shots if situation needed, as soon as their captain gave them orders.
 * Ichabod: Hmm...

Alongside Captain Irving, Ichabod stood still in his position, looking at Abbie entered the house.

<p style="text-align:center;"> 1 minute later  <p style="text-align:center;"> Mr. Gillespie's House 

''When Abbie arrived into the house of Mr. Gillespie, she entered the corridor. The room was quiet and she spotted no one.'' ''Nobody answered. Raising her gun, Abbie stepped aside and looked around. She dared not let her guards down.'' ''Abbie started to approached the room further, albeit slowly and quietly. Just then, she caught sight of a broken mirror beside her. The mirror was broken by a gunshot, as a bullet hole could be found on it. Mildly terrified, Abbie frowned her eyebrows before turned to take a look at the interior again.'' ''Slowly wandering into the room, Abbie stepped into the living room when she noticed a broken frame was lying on the ground. It was a photo of Mr. Gillespie and his wife. The frame was shattered, and the glass fragments were everywhere. Suddenly, Abbie heard a noise from the kitchen.''
 * Abbie: Mr. Gillespie?
 * Abbie: Mr. Gillespie? It's Abigail Mills... from the Sheriff's Department.
 * Abbie: Mr. Gillespie?



Slowly and stedily, Abbie started to approach the kitchen, and that's where she found Mr. and Mrs. Gillespie.

''Mr. Gillespie was sitting in there, leaning on a shelf. He was also holding a gun in his hand, speaking no words and having no emotions on his face like a total walking dead.'' ''Slowly and steadily, Abbie walked to Mr. Gillespie with great care. Mr. Gillespie did not make any move that was hostile, and he never panicked. However, in contrast, Mrs. Gillespie screamed at Abbie tearfully, being completely scared. Mrs. Gillespie was sitting right next to her husband, crying in despair.'' ''Abbie chose to ignore Mrs. Gillespie. She went straight towards Mr. Gillespie who was looking at the floor.'' Mr. Gillespie was still looking at the floor in despair. ''Mr. Gillespie looked up straight into Abbie's eyes. Much to Abbie's horror, Mr. Gillespie's eyes were also covered in white, in a same manner to Dr. Vega before she died. Abbie was so shocked that she immeditaely forgot what to say.'' Holding back her feelings of shock, Abbie began to talk, despite she still had her eyes widened because of sheer shock. ''Suddenly, as Abbie looked at Mr. Gillespie, neither she or Mrs. Gillespie had noticed that a slender and monstrous figure, the very same one Abbie saw in her dream... and the very same one that assaulted Mr. Gillespie's workshop, passed by Abbie from behind. The humanoid creature then turned his hollowed face to Mr. Gillespie.''
 * Abbie: Mr. Gillespie?
 * IMG_3786.pngMrs. Gillespie: Stay out! He's lost his mind!
 * Abbie: Mr. Gillespie, you wanted to talk to me?
 * Abbie: Mr. Gillespie, I'm here to help you. Let me help you.
 * Mr. Gillespie: You can't help me.
 * Abbie: Sure I can. Let's just talk.

''Horrified, Mr. Gillespie immediately fired five shots at the monster, but it suddenly disappeared. Abbie was unharmed, but Mrs. Gillespie was terrified and covered her head.''

<p style="text-align:center;"> Meanwhile 

<p style="text-align:center;"> Outside of the house 

''Outside the house, Ichabod and Irving heard the gunshot as well. They were both alerted. Irving immediately turned back to send the orders.'' ''Several police officers immediately took actions. Tatical police started to approached the house. When Irving turned back, he suddely saw Ichabod running towards the house. Irving was horrified.'' ''Ichabod chose to ignore Irving and rushed towards the house. Meanwhile, inside the house, Abbie immediately used her walkie-talkie to send Irving a message.'' ''Hearing this, Irving immediately realized nothing bad was happened on Abbie. He immediately raised his arm to his team.''
 * Irving: SEND IN TATICAL NOW!
 * Irving: Crane!
 * Abbie: [Stand by, Captain. Hold the team.]
 * Irving: Stand down. We're standing down.

<p style="text-align:center;"> Meanwhile 

<p style="text-align:center;"> Inside the house 

After this small conflict was settled down, Abbie immediately tried to comfort Mr. Gillespie.
 * Abbie: We're just fine here... aren't we, Mr. Gillespie?

''Mr. Gillespie did not answer. Just then, Abbie noticed Ichabod had approached to the broken window of the kitchen. He stopped when he saw Abbie in the room safe and sound. To assure that she was safe, Abbie raised her opened palm to Ichabod. Abbie then looked at Mr. Gillespie again.'' Mr. Gillespie looked at Abbie with a pair of vacant and colorless eyes. Abbie was shocked and widened her eyes even wider than before, being surprised and confused.
 * IMG_3787.pngAbbie: Mr. Gillespie? You're gonna let me help you.
 * Mr. Gillespie: You can't help me. He's coming for you next.
 * Abbie: Who is? Who is coming for me next?

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Mr. Gillespie: The Sandman. '

''Abbie heard the word "Sandman" and could not say any response. She finally realized that the monster she met in her previous dream was not a mere fantasy.'' ''As Abbie watched with some disbelief in her eyes, Mr. Gillespie suddenly made a apalling move. He pointed the gun right under his chin, much to the horror of both women beside him.'' ''The gunfire was shot. Ichabod heard the gunshot and widened his eyes in shock. Abbie clenched her teeth, looking at the scene with a painful look. She could never calm herself.''
 * Mr. Gillespie: Next time you fall asleep... hmm, you're dead.
 * Abbie & Mrs. Gillespie: NOOOOOOO!!!

Act 4 - Ro'kenhronteys
<p style="text-align:center;"> 1 hour later  <p style="text-align:center;"> Gillespie Ranch 

''As the red and blue lights from the police cars flashed in front of Gillespie Ranch, the sun had already setting down. The gown of night covered the entire town, as Abbie silenty sat beside the house for a long time.''

''After Mr. Gillespie shot himself, Ichabod contacted Sister Mary Eunice, who was keep herself busy in looking for clues in the files. Listening to Ichabod talking to her about what happened to Abbie and Jenny, Sister Mary Eunice came and looked at Abbie with an apologetic face.'' ''Sister Mary Eunice then walked towards Abbie, as Ichabod followed her. They stood beside Abbie, but Abbie did not look at them.'' As a respond to the two's question, Abbie closed her eyes and seemed troubled. Ichabod shrugged his shoulder with a sigh.
 * -美国恐怖故事--第二季-第1-00_06_02--20170728-171027-2-.pngSister Mary Eunice: (think) * Old sins cast a long shadows. *
 * Sister Mary Eunice: Is there a reason why you're standing alone?
 * Ichabod: Far away from everybody else?
 * IMG_3791.pngAbbie: I'm trying to think.

''Sister Mary Eunice then bit her lips and sadly look at Abbie, as the latter was trying to calm herself down from the shock caused by Mr. Gillespie's suicide and last words. She then turned to Ichabod and blinked her eyes. Ichabod frowned his eyebrows.'' ''Sister Mary Eunice looked at Abbie and nodded. Shrugging his shoulders, Ichabod sighed helplessly before he started to approach Abbie one step closer. Abbie was looking like a sad pessimist.''
 * Ichabod: I'll ask her.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: No, I'll ask her. I have little involvment in this case before you called me, and I need to fix it now.
 * -美国恐怖故事--第二季-第3-00_38_29--20170323-100308-0-.pngIchabod: No need, Sister. You've done enough looking for the files in the archives, and please allow me to speak to her.

With no other words, Sister Mary Eunice stepped aside and began to gather all those informations she needed for finding clues, including those around Dr. Gillespie's last words, leaving Ichabod to talk with Abbie. Ichabod shook his head in a calm face. Then, Abbie looked at Ichabod as she finally opened her eyes. ''Sister Mary Eunice immediately scrached her head. Her face had turned much more worried.'' Abbie nodded before she continued in a weak voice. ''Hearing Abbie's words, Ichabod suddenly widened his eyes and shook his head, looked confused by Abbie's words, while Sister Mary Eunice put the tip of her index finger on her chin, sharpened her eyes. She leaned closer to the Two Witness, wanting to hear the words clearer.'' ''Abbie looked at Ichabod with surprise, as he did not know who the Sandman was. Ichabod shook his head. Abbie then lower her head and began her explanation. Sister Mary Eunice was still keeping silence.'' ''Ichabod took a deep breath nervously. Sister Mary Eunice did not react, only with a mild frown in her brows. She was trying to figure the informations out.'' ''All of a sudden, Sister Mary Eunice suddenly broke her silence, making Ichabod and Abbie to look at her in surprise. Sister Mary Eunice, after a long time of absense and thinking, manage to get the answer to the entire puzzle from the known informations very soon.''
 * IMG_3792.pngIchabod: You know, this isn't your fault, either.
 * Abbie: I know. Just wish I could've done something.
 * Ichabod: You did your best.
 * Abbie: You're right about Jenny. She's the key to all of this. Dr. Vega, Mr. Gillespie and me, none of us did anything to help her, even though we knew she was telling the truth.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: You mean...
 * Abbie: Yes, Mr. Gillespie said that I was the next. * sigh * The next time I fell asleep... I'm dead. The Sandman was coming to get me.
 * IMG_3793.pngSister Mary Eunice: The Sandman?
 * Ichabod: Who's the Sandman?
 * Abbie: Really? You don't know?
 * Abbie: Kindly dream giver who sprinkles sand in the eyes of children. Put 'em to sleep.
 * Ichabod: Sounds babaric.
 * Ichabod: What does the Sandman look like?
 * Abbie: I don't know. That's a legend.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: Isn't that the, uh... How did you put it?

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Sister Mary Eunice: "Faceless nightmare monster"? '

Hearing Sister Mary Eunice's words, Abbie then immediately widened her eyes in realization. ''Sister Mary Eunice nodded. She bit her lips and seemed very nervous.''
 * Abbie: The one from my own dream?
 * Sister Mary Eunice: Now, it's the time for you to do something. I guess that is Corbin's final wish to make you leave the fear from your past that haunted you .

Hearing this, Abbie and Ichabod looked at each other with a worried face.
 * Ichabod: We need to find the files from the Archives now.

''Now, everything started to make sense. The so-called faceless nightmare monster in Abbie's dream was the same monster called "the Sandman" who drove both Dr. Vega and Mr. Gillespie into suicide. It targeted them for they lied on the problems upon Jenny.''

''Now, the monster was coming towards Abbie... under the influence of that creature in the woods.''

<p style="text-align:center;"> Half an hour later

<p style="text-align:center;"> The archives

''Standing above a laddar to reach the top of the book shelf, Abbie spotted a large book about the information she needed. Sister Mary Eunice was gathering informations and taking useful notes beside the table. When Abbie called Ichabod, Ichabod arrived in while holding two large tin cans in his hands.'' ''In order to prevent Abbie from sleeping, Ichabod and Sister Mary Eunice had planned to use coffee to make Abbie away from being tired. Ichabod handed one of the tin can to Abbie. Sister Mary Eunice put her glasses on the table and started to take a rest. Abbie looked at Ichabod but did not forget to correct his use of words as they walked to the desk where Sister Mary Eunice was sitting at.'' Abbie stopped in front of the desk and opened the tin. Abbie then showed the tin can to Sister Mary Eunice. ''With a smile, Sister Mary Eunice shook her head in rejection. Abbie and Ichabod then opened the tin, with Ichabod looking at how Abbie opened the tin.''
 * IMG_3832.pngAbbie: Crane? I think I found something.
 * Ichabod: I requested coffee from the charwoman in the entrance hall, but she said you're particular to this beverage.
 * Abbie: She's called a receptionist, or Wendy Willow. And yes, I am. It's an energy drink to help keep you awake.
 * Abbie: It'll keep me awake.
 * Abbie: You would like some?

''Ichabod then took some energy drink from the can like drinking beer... before he suddenly choked himself on it. He hunched humorously and was about to spit the drink out, but a moment later, he was fine.''

''Sister Mary Eunice frowned when she saw Ichabod's reaction. She took a look at Abbie's can of energy drink before she moved her hair - alongside herself sitting on it - to stay a pace away from Abbie, as if Abbie was holding a cup of poison. Abbie did not mind. She only watched with a smile as Ichabod showed discomfort on the taste of the energy drink.''

A moment later, Ichabod could finally speak to express his feelings. ''Abbie only watched in amusement as Ichabod tried to regain his sense after drinking the drink. Ichabod then put the energy drink tin on the table and waved his hands to Abbie.'' ''Abbie then opened the book she just took from the bookshelf. Ichabod and Sister Mary Eunice immediately leaned forward as the trio started to do a research. Abbie pointed at one of the pages as Ichabod walked closer to her.'' ''Ichabod walked closer to see the page. He and Sister Mary Eunice viewed the page very carefully. There was a large symbol on the page in a composite form of an eye, an arrow pointing down, and an hourglass.'' Ichabod looked at the page and suddenly mumbled in a serious face.
 * IMG_3834.pngIchabod: Potent... Ahem...
 * Ichabod: I'm fine. I'm all right. Uh, you were saying... You have found something?
 * Abbie: Yes, and no. Basically, dream spirits have been around as long as humans have been dreaming. They're most easygoing types, along the lines of the traditional Sandman... but there's others... less friendly... vengeful types.
 * Abbie: Does this mean anything to you?
 * Abbie: It's from an 18th century Mohawk story about a dream demon.

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Ichabod: Ro'kenhrontyes. '

''Sister Mary Eunice immediately had her eyes lit up, and Abbie had the same reaction as well. Given to Ichabod's own photographic memory, any description of his, which were about something appeared or referred in his past, would be 100% accurate, including the informations of many monsters and demons.''
 * MV5BNTI4Mzc1ODI5OV5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTgwOTQ4NTA4MzE@._V1_SX640_SY720_.jpgSister Mary Eunice: You know him?

Ichabod then looked at Abbie with a confident look. ​Abbie nodded confidently. Hearing this, Sister Mary Eunice immediately closed her notebook and looked at Ichabod with a full of concentration. Almost immediately, Sister Mary Eunice started to wonder: What kind of Mohawk myths and culture would make someone like Christine to feel interested? Nevertheless, she did not pull herself from listening to Ichabod's descriptions.
 * Ichabod: The creature in your nightmare, did he have black hollow eye sockets?
 * Abbie: Yeah, he did.
 * Ichabod: And a veil of flesh where his mouth should be?
 * 103Promo2.jpgAbbie & Sister Mary Eunice: Who is he?
 * Ichabod: A myth... Clearly's one that becomes all too real. I first heard of it from the Mohawks who fought with us in the 37th regiment.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: You fought alongside Native Americans?
 * Ichabod: Fought, plotted, executed various forms of espionage. Many of our Mohawk friends were colonial spies. They could inflitrate the ranks of the crown without anyone thinking twice about their presence.
 * Hungary.full.1036016.jpgSister Mary Eunice: Really?
 * Ichabod: Indeedn, and not even Christine would suspect the Mohawks. Rumors said that she was rather friendly to these Mohawks because she was interested in their myths. In addition, Christine will never suspect any Native American could be a spy for patroits. Therefore, they were valuable to our cause.
 * Ichabod: They told me a fairy tale, a legend spun to frighten the young into a life of righteousness. "Always do right thing by your neighbor, children, or the spirit of Ro'kenhronteys will come for you in your dreams." Native Americans would draw the symbol in the way we wound make the sign of the cross to ward away evil. A Mohawk man named Wiroh claimed that the dream spirit killed his father as punishment for turning a blind eye on his neighbor's plight.

''After Ichabod had finished, Abbie took a look at the symbol as well. She immediately felt chills on her spines.'' Ichabod then sighed and nodded. Abbie let out a sad sigh, and Sister Mary Eunice looked aside with helpnessless. Hearing the words of Sister Mary Eunice, Ichabod was surprised and widened his eyes. ''Ichabod became more and more desperate when he spoke those words. He paused a bit as the other two looked at him with sadness.'' ''In dismay, Abbie took another sip from her energy drink. Ichabod, however, did not act so pessimistic. He narrowed his eyes and wiped his hair a bit.'' ''Sister Mary Eunice then immediately opened another one of her notebook again. She went to one of the pages which had a long list of people on record. With the help of Corbin before he died, Sister Mary Eunice had made friends with many citizens in Sleepy Hollow. She immediately spotted a name... and looked at Ichabod.'' ''Ichabod immediately looked at Sister Mary Eunice. In spite of the nun's reminding, Ichabod had a glimmer of hope on his face.''
 * Abbie: So if this... dream demon... is responsible for Vega and Gillespie's deaths and is coming for me, what do I do? I carve this symbol in my doorstep?
 * Ichabod: Only if you beleve crossing yourself will actually keep the Devil at bay.
 * Abbie: Look, I do not want to die because of something I did over ten years ago.
 * Ichabod: We must visit a Mohawk shaman.
 * Abbie: That's easier said than done.
 * Ichabod: How so?
 * Sister Mary Eunice: After the Revolution, the new government and the Native Americans fought over land. There aren't very many of them left anymore.
 * Ichabod: How is that possible? Their nation strecthced the continent. Their rules for governors formed the very basis of how we planned to unify 13 diverse staets into a single federation.
 * Ichabod: They were my friends.
 * Abbie: Maybe the drem spirit has a long... list of people to visit after he's done with me.
 * [[File:Ichabod-Crane-Screencaps-ichabod-crane-sleepy-hollow-tv-series-35761154-500-281.jpg|thumb|340px]]Ichabod: A shaman. Is there a place we can find one?
 * Sister Mary Eunice: There is a guy... I don't think it's what you're expecting.

<p style="text-align:center;"> Meanwhile 

<p style="text-align:center;"> Corridor of the Archives 

''Outside of the archive room, the woman named Wendy, who gave Ichabod energy drinks leaned the door and frowned in dismay. She was a relatively tall and slender woman with blond hair that was tied up in a bun. She immediately walked away and got her phone out of her pocket, as she used her phone to gave someone a call.'' ''The woman who called herself Mad Moiselle was calling to nobody but Gregory Grape, a top member of the Order of Flourish. She silently heard his response before giving hers in a cold face.'' ''Mad Moiselle then closed her phone and clenched her teeth. For very briefly, her appearance suddenly changed into a woman with white hat and purple dress, but then she returned back to her previous form with a formal staff outfit.'' ''While thinking and holding a paper fan in her hand, Mad Moiselle then walked out of the archives. Nobody had noticed her.''
 * "Wendy"(???): Yes, yes, it's me. This is Mad Moiselle speaking. Mr. Gregory, Ichabod Crane is looking for a Mohawk shaman to deal with the Sandman.
 * Mad Moiselle: I don't think using the Witnesses is a good idea. I don't trust them at all. Shall I just kill them tomorrow or... No? That's a shame. Fine. I'll do whatever you say.
 * Mad Moiselle: (think) * So I have one more reason to kill you, Gregory, but it is utterly petty compared to what you did to Dragonia Dragonfruit... You doomed my family and killed my father. One day, I'll let you pay. You useless wretch is on your seat for too long! *

<p style="text-align:center;"> The next day 

<p style="text-align:center;"> Geroinimotors

<p style="text-align:center;"> (Some car market in town)

<p style="text-align:center;"> 8:00 AM 

''Due the trouble brought by the dream demon, Abbie did not fall asleep for the whole night in order to fight the monster for another day, and they managed to contact the "shaman" they were looking for. Surprisingly to Ichabod, this Mohawk man in the town was an owner to a car market in town known as Geroinimotors.''

''When the dawn shone upon the town of Sleepy Hollow, Ichabod, Abbie and Sister Mary Eunice arrived in a market that sold cars of all kind, also including many other motor transportations. When Ichabod arrived in the parking lot, Ichabod frowned in dismay.'' ''Just then, Sister Mary Eunice spotted a man with short black hair and dressed in grey suit. He greeted the three with pleasure.'' ''​Duncan then took a look at Sister Mary Eunice and was surprised. He greeted her with a polite smile.'' Sister Mary Eunice showed Ichabod and Abbie to Duncan, and Abbie looked at the man before introducing herself. ''Duncan heard this and was confused that a police lieuteanant would come for him, and he heard Abbie was the late Sheriff Corbin's apprentice. He looked at Abbie with a frown.'' ​Abbie shook her head. Duncan heard this and got a relief.
 * IMG_3836.pngIchabod: The shaman sells motorized carriages?
 * Abbie: Trucks, motorcycles, RVs, boats, a little bit of everything.
 * Man: Welcome to Geronimotors. My name is Seamus Duncan, owner, manger and your humble servant.
 * Duncan: So, is there anything for me to help, Sister?
 * Sister Mary Eunice: I've brought your cilents here, Mr. Duncan. They really needs you in their service.
 * 318Promo19.jpgAbbie: I'm Lt. Abbie Mills. This is my partner Ichabod Crane.
 * Duncan: The sheriff said I had 90 days to clean up the enviromental waste in the back.
 * Abbie: We're not about that.
 * IMG_3837.pngDuncan: Great. Hey, are you guys intrested in time travel? I got a tricked out DeLorean in mint condition.

''It should be noted that the time machine in the famous 1985 American film, Back To The Future trilogy, was based on this 1976 vehicle. Obviously, Ichabod had no idea of this at all.''

''Duncan then led Ichabod, Sister Mary Eunice and Abbie to the vehicle, but none of the trio was interested in car. Ichabod immediately went straight to the bottom.'' ''When hearing the name "Ro'kenhronteys", Duncan immediately stopped his pace and turned back in a surprised face. The name had made him appalled, and he stared at Ichabod for four seconds in confusion.'' ''Sister Mary Eunice immediately looked at Ichabod, but only for one second. Then, Duncan frowned his brows and spoke in a sacarstic tone. Judging by Duncan's words, Ichabod deduced that this man did not forget this old legend.'' ''​Sister Mary Eunice, however, remained serious. Abbie immediately spoke something to this man who had just gave his refusals.'' ''The man shook his head as if the three were messing with his mind. He looked at the trio as if he was looking at three pathetic fools.'' ''Mr. Duncan did not respond. He immediately made a turn and walked way with scorn. Abbie immediately gulped as if they were actually doomed. Ichabod, however, immediately rushed towards the man, never wanting to give up quite so suddenly. Sister Mary Eunice and Abbie followed both of them.'' "......!!" ''Stop walking when Ichabod said this, Duncan suddenly stopped walking and kept silence. However, he immediately responded in a firm and serious manner.'' ''​Ichabod stopped as well. With confidence, he continued to persuade Duncan into changing his mind.'' ''Having a glimpse of the symbol of Ro'kenhronteys appeared into his mindDuncan hestitated for a while and turned back his head, looking at Ichabod, Sister Mary Eunice and Abbie one by one, before his face changed. He turned his head a bit to a cabin next to himself.'' Finally having a change of mind, Duncan then led the trio into a place surrounded by tyres, and they went straight to the cabin with somehow a sad face. ''Hearing the loss of Mohawk tradition, ​Ichabod felt sad as well. Since he was a man from the past, Ichabod was very serious on the matter of history and would not be happy to hear any interesting traditions being abandoned or historical sites being demolished. Just as Ichabod was lamenting, the trio approached to a small truck, and it was the car that Mr. Duncan had owned for himself.'' ​Duncan opened the front door.
 * IMG_3831.pngIchabod: We need your help...
 * Duncan: Yes?
 * Ichabod: ...combating the dream spirit Ro'kenhronteys.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: Oops...
 * Duncan: Seriously? You want me to go all kemosabe and cast a spell and do a rain dance? Get out of here, you jokers.
 * -美国恐怖故事--第二季-第9-00_31_37--20170426-223750-6-.pngAbbie: This isn't a joke. We wouldn't be here if we weren't serious.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: He has visited her.
 * Duncan: I don't know what you're taking about. Sister, I thought you brought me two nice clients, but I am so disappointed. If you want to buy a car, I'm your man. Otherwise, I can't help you.
 * IMG_3839.pngSister Mary Eunice: Mr. Duncan?
 * Ichabod: You understood everything I said. I recognized the fear in your countenance when I mentioned Ro'kenronteys. He is coming for my friend. What will you do when he comes for you?
 * Duncan: My conscience is clear.
 * IMG_3814.pngIchabod: His Honor Edmund Burke once said, "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good man to do nothing." And we may all at times stand idly when actions is required... but if you turn your back on Lt. Mills, how will you acquit yourself a good man when Ro'kenhronteys comes to you in your dream?
 * IMG_3841.pngDuncan: Come on.
 * Duncan: I don't know where you came from, Mr. Crane, but you can drop your "friend to the tribe" shtick. No one's a chief, no one lives in tepees, and no one has powwows. Got it?
 * Ichabod: You stopped having powwows? Hmm... I rather enjoyed those.
 * Duncan: Get in.
 * Abbie: Where are we going?
 * Duncan: We're taking a little trip.

<p style="text-align:center;"> 2 hours later  <p style="text-align:center;"> Duncan's Secret Chamber

<p style="text-align:center;"> 5km away from Sleepy Hollow

''After 2 hours of ride out of town, Ichabod, Sister Mary Eunice and Abbie were taken into a small chamber filled with yellow lights and shelves. It seemed to be decades old, but Ichabod rather like it. He and his two teammates were following Duncan as he spoke to them.'' ''Duncan appraoched a table and was preparing something for his remedy. He held a round glass jar filled with teal liquid in his hand.'' ''Ichabod and Sister Mary Eunice looked at each other in a nervous face. Through out the adventure and all those evil monsters they met, none of them had not wish to kill them fast and furious. Duncan then gave Abbie a cup.'' While speaking, Duncan did not waste time to pour Abbie that teal liquid into her cup. All of a sudden, Ichabod frowned when he heard the word Purgatory, as the word was referring to the same place where Katrina Crane was trapped in.
 * Duncan: First thing first, Ro'kenhronteys isn't your run-of-the-mill demon.
 * Abbie: There's run-of-the-mill demons?
 * Duncan: Fair.
 * Duncan: Anyway, he doesn't simply want to kill you. He taunts you first. He rubs your face in the mess you made. He drives you to a pain so unimaginable, you willingly take your own life.
 * IMG_7748.pngSister Mary Eunice: Ergo... Dr. Vega and Mr. Gillespie.
 * Duncan: And into the Valley of Death we go. The good pass through on their way to Heaven. The evil go straight to Hell.
 * Duncan: Those in between, they belong to Purgatory, and Ro'kenhronteys is one of those who guards in the place. If they're not redeemed, he takes their soul to Hell with him by the order of a powerful demon that controled him.

''Sister Mary Eunice noticed this and seemed to get worried as well, about the demon who could possibly controlled Ro'kenhronteys to kill Abbie using her lies in the past. When Katarina Couteau was in Sleepy Hollow, Sister Mary Eunice protected Katarina away from Moloch's shadow with her power running out, and that was when Moloch was weakened when the Purgatory strained him. Even so, Ichabod and Sister Mary Eunice controlled their feelings. Fortunately, Duncan did not notice Ichabod's reaction.''

On the other hand, Abbie was even more worried. ''Looking at the cup of teal tea in her hand with relief, Abbie then nodded to Duncan. She then raised her cup and chuckled.'' ''​Abbie then drank the tea. Ichabod was still think of Katrina.'' ​Sister Mary Eunice and Ichabod looked at each other and stopped thinking about Katrina or the demon in the woods. ''​With no hestitation, Ichabod pause for a second and walked towards the bottle. He immediately took half of them (a part of the reason was that he found the drink tasty), as Abbie and Sister Mary Eunice were both apalled.'' Swallowing the liquid, ​Ichabod then looked at the bottle with pure satisfaction. ​Ichabod then looked at Abbie with a humorous face. ''​Ichabod's face remained calm, like a soldier facing an upcoming death battle. Ichabod had face plenty of the dark events and deranged people, and this advanture was nothing comparing to the fear of facing an undead Hessian rider with an axe. Duncan seemed impressed by Ichabod's will.'' ​As Duncan was preparing the venome he said, Sister Mary Eunice stood up in confusion. ​Duncan immediately turned back and looked at Sister Mary Eunice seriously. ''Worried, ​Sister Mary Eunice then put her hand on her cross and bit her lips... but then she remembered Katrina's pleadge when they temporarily met in Purgatory. Sister Mary Eunice then realized the best way to support the Witness, so far, was help them from outside threats, since Abbie had to face the fear for herself while Ichabod chose to follow her on purpose. Sister Mary Eunice was confident for this.''
 * Abbie: But I can't stop him?
 * Duncan: Only on his territory in Purgatory. You drink that tea, you are in his dream world, and the fight begins.
 * Abbie: Down the hatch.
 * Duncan: Once you enter the dream world, the spirit chooses the challenge you have to face. You're a living being, walking in the Valley of Death.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: So...
 * IMG_3847.pngIchabod: If she dies in the dream?
 * Duncan: She dies. Period.
 * Ichabod: I see.
 * Duncan: Mr. Crane?
 * Abbie: Crane!
 * Ichabod: Hmm... Jasmine. Cherry root. * smelt * Hops? Not bad.
 * Ichabod: It's certainly preferable for your energy drink.
 * Abbie: What are you thinking?
 * Ichabod: Well, I'm coming with you now, so no point in discussing it.
 * Duncan: The tea will put you to sleep. The venom will allow you to control your actions while you dream.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: Wait, Mr. Duncan, what about me?
 * Sister Mary Eunice: I need to help them face Rokenhronteys. I should be the one who help Abbie, not 
 * Duncan: You told me that Lt. Mills was hunt because she lied about seeing a demon in the woods. I suspect that Ro'kenhronteys choose Lt. Mills on purpose due to her dark past, and I suspect if there would be other evil spirits - possibly controlled by that demon in the woods - is here trying to harm them. We need you awake and use your rosary to get the place away from the other outworldly fiends. Once you get in there, you cannot leave until you have the dream spirit defeated and cleanse Lt. Mills from her sins.
 * Katrina-crane-gallery.jpgSister Mary Eunice: Abbie... Crane...

Then, as Duncan went to his shelf and looked for the venon he talked about, Ichabod widened his eyes in surprise as he began to fell dizzy. ''​Duncan then returned with a glass jar that had a small scorpion inside. The trio then looked at the scorpion in surprise.'' ''​Sister Mary Eunice looked at the scorpion in the glass jar. She worryingly looked at Ichabod, but he gave her a calm look to make clear he will assure the safety of his own and Abbie. Sister Mary Eunice then sighed in relief.''
 * Sleepy-hollow-season3-winter-premiere.jpgIchabod: It's the venom. What-what venom?
 * Duncan: Their venom.

<p style="text-align:center;"> 6 minutes later 

''Six minutes later, Ichabod and Abbie had took off their coat and shirt. Each of them lied on one carpet, with their face looking towards the ceilings.''

''Meanwhile, Sister Mary Eunice was binding the two with ropes following the instructions of Duncan. Then, she held Washington's Holy Bible beside the Two Witnesses, as she put her crucifix beside them to stop other demons from arriving to them. Ichabod looked at his wrists and ankles being strained on the carpet and was confused.'' ''After the preperations, Sister Mary Eunice carefully helped Duncan to bring the jar with that scorpion inside it. There was another assitant of Duncan who brought another glass jar, also with a scorpion inside. Sister Mary Eunice placed the jar upside down on Abbie's abdomon, while Duncan's assistant placed the jar on Ichabod's abdomon'' As Duncan ended his explanation, Duncan's assistant and Sister Mary Eunice started to bang the bottom of the jar, following Duncan's instruction.
 * Ichabod: Is this strictly necessary?
 * Sister Mary Eunice: So that you don't hurt yourselves.
 * Duncan: Scorpion stings... they're, um... ouch. You have to focus now. Once you enter the dream world, the tea will keep you connected, but only you will know what you have to do to defeat Ro'kenhronteys.

''As Ichabod looked at the scorpion in confusion, both him and Abbie got stun one by one. The two then lost their conciousness. Sister Mary Eunice looked at Ichabod and Abbie before walking to Mr. Duncan.''
 * Ichabod: Is this necessary? Banging?

Duncan then looked at Sister Mary Eunice and sighed. Sister Mary Eunice then looked at Ichabod and Abbie with a worried look.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: Mr. Duncan, I think you're right. I can feel other demonic presence in this room.
 * Duncan: That's why you need to be awake. Sister, the best thing you have to do is to pray for them and make those invading spirits leave, so that they could face Ro'kenhronteys without interuption.

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Sister Mary Eunice: Hold on. This is the fight for your own destiny, Abbie. Godspeed. '

Sister Mary Eunice then placed her hands in front of her chest and started to pray.

Act 5 - Face the Fear
<p style="text-align:center;"> 3 minutes later  <p style="text-align:center;"> Outside of the chamber 

''Sitting near the pavement by the truck of Seamus Duncan, Crow Faux put his palm on his cheek with a frowned look. Just then, Crow had heard a strange voice coming not far away.'' ''Crow heard the voice calling his name again and again, as he was apalled by the voice. Crow then stood up and walked slowly towards the truck. He then looked at the rearview mirror of the truck, before he was suddenly dragged by some unknown force.'' ''When Crow opened his eyes, he had found himself in Purgatory, standing inside Moloch's lair. Crow then looked at the demon, Moloch, as the latter stared at him with his hollowed eyes. Crow immediately knelt in front of Moloch.''
 * Crow: I've track those pests here for a long, long time, and when did those demons I sent to attack them? That was weird...
 * ???: [Crow Faux...]
 * Crow: Ugh...
 * Crow: M-Master...

Flashback - 1776
<p style="text-align:center;"> New York 

<p style="text-align:center;"> Manhattan Island 

<p style="text-align:center;"> Christine's Residence 

''Looking her own reflection inside the mirror, Christine Van Bilj started to step back pace by pace as if she was struggling with something inside her with a sad face... until her face began to turn more and more scary and menacing.  Christine then turned back and began to snarl, as the inner evil had took over her mind once again. For now, there was only Christine herself inside the room.'' Just a day before the invasion of Manhattan, which was following Ichabod's outright betrayl had been spread through the encampment of British Force, Howe immediately found Christine, asking her for an artifact that would give him a powerful and immortal army to take Manhattan down. To make things worse, Christine did have something like that in her malevolent collections.
 * Christine: Uhh... why are you doing this? What do you want?
 * Christine: (narrator) Uh, that Crane defied us and turned against the King himself...
 * Christine: (narrator) Fortunately, General Howe wanted me to find something which will give him an immortal army, which I saw as a chance for me to seek vengence upon anyone who dared to defy us.
 * Christine: Hmm...

''With a wicked grin, Christine looked at a flat stone beside a skeleton of a deceased British Soldier lying on the table. The stone was black, round and flat, but it had a totem carved on it. With a smile, Christine put the stone on the chest of that skeleton.'' ''The stone suddenly let out a tangerine aura, before releasing a swarm of maggots crawling beneath the stone. Then, the maggots started to cover the entire skeleton very quickly. Soon, they crawled away and disappeared.  With a calm and grim smile, Christine crossed her fingers in anticipation, looking at the redcoat soldier regained much of his flesh, albeit being greyish and skinny like a zombie, with a pair of hollowed eyes. Christine then took a look at her left side, where many undead soldiers with weapons in their hand was standing inside the room.'' ''After taking a good look at her creation, Christine then went to a chest and opened it, revealing it to be a chest filled with bombs. Christine then hid the stone beneath the chest before raising her hand.'' ''Then, as if they were having their minds conneted with the mind of Christine, every zombie soldiers followed her orders and sunk into the ground. With a calm face, Christine then patted the chest and began to shout.'' When Christine made her orders clear, two British guards - or more precisely, two  living  British guards - had arrived in the scene and took a look at the chest. ''The two guards were both afraid of Christine, so as she was giving her orders, they immediately went to the wooden chest and carried them away, all the way towards the room of General Howe himself. Christine was alone in the room again, but not for long.''
 * Christine: Rise back from Hades, my warrior.
 * 【mjt100.com】Sle-00_32_25--20171010-090452-5-.pngChristine: For the Crown.
 * Christine: General Howe will be pleased.
 * Christine: Dismissed.
 * Hungary.full.1774668.jpgChristine: Guards!
 * Christine: The bombs are now prepared. Please send it to General Howe, boys. Tonight, we will raise our own retribution upon the whole Island of Manhattan... and paint it in red.

''Christine's order made those undead redcoats all came out of the ground rapidly like some kind of groundhogs. Then, Christine turned to the mirror behind her.'' ''After Christine finished her words, a hideous face full of malevolence started to surface itself from the mirror with a pair of cold and vacant eyes. It was none other than the face of Moloch.'' Hearing Moloch's words, Christine closed her eyes with a grin, feeling confident about her next move. With malice, Christine then narrowed her eyes and turned more serious, stop smiling as well.
 * Christine: Rally.
 * Christine: Master Moloch, all the preperations have been made, and an army of Drugur is prepared under your request.
 * Moloch: [Well done, Christine. It's certain that you will be one of my most valuable minions of them all, but you must be wary. Ichabod Crane is still out there, and I have a feeling that he will assassinate General Howe, which will make us to lose one more puppet after Tarleton.]
 * Christine: Master, Tarleton is not comparable to General Howe, and I bet Ichabod will not kill him so instantly. I know Ichabod for many years, and I wonder if he will kill Howe, who is his respected mentor, instantly after he met him.

Paused for a bit, Christine then turned to look at the undead soldiers.
 * Christine: However, I have arrange more and more guards beside General Howe's camp. Once they found there was somthing wrong, they will come to help General Howe. Crane's assassination will definitely fall to ruins.

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Christine: No matter what the outcome is, Master, Manhatten will turn into a living hell tonight. There will be enough soul for you to gain power, and those patroits will pay for spying upon us... with blood. '

Nowadays
<p style="text-align:center;"> Sleepy Hollow 

<p style="text-align:center;"> Town's Court 

<p style="text-align:center;"> Phyllis Peach's Office 

''The prosecutor who owned the office is Prosecutor Phyllis Parker, who was also known as Phyllis Peach, a member of the Order of Flourish (which is a fact unbeknowest to the public). She was now looking at a black-and-white photo on her desk. There was only her alone in the office for now.'' Just then, there was a knock on the door, with a deep-pitched female voice coming from outside. ''Phyllis heard the voice and frowned. She had recoginized the voice as the voice of Selina Strawberry, who had came to visit her somehow.'' In dismay, Phyllis steadily stood up from her seat. ''Then, she regained her composure and sat back on her seat. Although she was still confused by Selina's sudden arrival, Phyllis had to keep her cool.'' ''The door opened steadily and swiftly, as Selina walked into the room with an angry face. She walked towards Phyllis and stood in front of the desk, before noticing the photo of Nevins on the table.'' ''Biting her lips with a mildly upset face, Phyllis shook her head calmly. Selina looked up and stared at the gray hair of Phyllis.''
 * Phyllis: Atticus Nevins... That name sounds so familiar to me...
 * Phyllis: So this is the old friend of the late Sheriff August Corbin, on the FBI's wanted poster. I should have do something.
 * Selina: (voice) Prosecutor Parker.
 * Phyllis: Selina?
 * Phyllis: (think) What's she doing here?
 * Phyllis: Come in!
 * Sae_Serious_Cut-in_2.pngSelina: Hmm, isn't that the photo of some sort of FBI's Top Suspect, Peach? What's the matter with it?
 * Phyllis: No, there's nothing. Selina, it's been so long, about more than a month since we seen each other.
 * Selina: Wrong. It's not "so" long. It's "too" long.

Selina looked at Phyllis as the latter started to stand up from her chair. Selina then crossed her arms in fraustration. ''Phyllis only looked at Selina with anger, and she clenched her fist with her hand trembling. However, she kept her cool and walked her bookshelf.''
 * 626262-jormungand_54.jpgSelina: I wonder what are you doing during this months, and you haven't shown up when the late Sheriff Corbin was chopped down by some sort of a Headless Horseman, according to a rumor. You also never showed up in public during the recent bee rampage and mass possession. You never showed up during those awful stabbing incident, either. However, just two days ago, you showed yourself, talking about a petty and corrupt politician in our town who was later killed by some gangsters just 20 minutes after you put up a press conference and sued him.
 * Selina: By the way, you dyed your hair back to gray instead of pink when you attempted the meeting in our group. However, you have absent in our last meeting of emergency as well, not long Nevins earned a wanted poster. Is it a mere coinsidence or you were planning something devious with him, Peach?
 * Phyllis: I'm a prosecutor. It was my job to enforce the true justice in this town and seek out the truth behind all of those crime scenes.

Phyllis then look at all of those records and files on the shelf with a cool look. Selina frowned and narrowed her eyes, and she looked at Phyllis with no fear. ''Phyllis heard Selina's words and closed her eyes. She just scoffed and turned back with a calm face. Selina was talking about an old case which had its guilty verdict about four years ago.'' Selina went forward and narrowed her eyes. Hearing the words of Selina, Phyllis looked aside with a sad face (clearly out of good pretense). Before Phyllis could finish, Selina stepped much more paces and got more closer, and was only seven centimeters close to Phyllis, who was still a bit of shorter than Selina despite wearing heels. ''With an annoyed face, Phyllis immediately push the enraged Selina away from her. It was obvious that she was fed up with it.'' Suddenly, Selina made a sharp question and threw it to Phyllis, who mildly stepped aside as if she was dodging a hand granade.
 * Phyllis: I need to find the essence of the truth. These things you were talking about did not seem to connect to each other, Selina.
 * Selina: Could you please just tell me about what you found on the case concerning the mysteriously rookie attorney, Dragonia Dragonfruit? Was it connected to that chemical attack? Don't think that I don't know you give a false conviction on the case, Phyllis.
 * Phyllis: Hmm, Selina, Alexandar Apricot is guilty for the dealing in the weapons of mass destruction, and he poisoned himself in the interrogation room with a hidden cyanide pill. I have some files from forensics, including the death certificate on Alexandar, proving that he committed suicide.
 * Selina: Where is his remains?
 * Phyllis: There is no remains in his tomb. He was cremated. He committed suicide and no priest in the town shall give him a proper burial, since he was a Catholic but committed suicide...
 * Selina: Pedro said that you was the mastermind behind that chemical weapon attack!
 * Sae_annoyed.pngPhyllis: Pedro? Pedro Pineapple?
 * Selina: He told everything to me, that he was the orchasrater and you were the mastermind, just three years after the chemical attack which brought down the Apricot Family, my good friends... and then the next day, Dragonia was missing and presumed dead, just during the time he was trying to re-investigate that case that you prosecuted long ago!
 * Phyllis: Selina!
 * Phyllis: Stop judging a case as if you are still a immature child. As you know, Selina, Pedro Pineapple is a pervert, and worse, either delusional or he is a psychopath. Neither of which I can trust!
 * Selina: So why don't you arrest him?

​Phyllis then went forward to Selina, as the latter started to feel somehow relent when she heard about the things concerning Lord Helio.
 * Phyllis: You should know damn well about Pedro's true nature. He was obsessed with you and would always try to make you his toy and nothing more. He was a fanatic, but he was the bethroned that the Light Lord arrange you after he discovered that you were working for August Corbin and the remnants of the Sisterhood of Radiant Heart.

Then, with her unsmiling face, Phyllis went towards the seat and continue to work on her laptop. Judging by her expression filled with doubt and anger, Selina was still unconvinced. ​Phyllis raised her hand in fraustration, shouting out to make the ouside hear it. As Selina was still arguing, two tall and muscular bailiff - about half a head taller than Selina herself - came into the room from outside and plunge a syringe filled with sedative into her neck. Selina let out a minor screech and fell dizzy, before she dropped on the floor, could barely moving. ''Phyllis scoffed as she looked at Selina with disdain. Selina then collapsed on the ground, weak and powerless.'' The bailiff then went towards Selina and pulled her arms, before escorting a mumbling Selina out of the room, as Phyllis watched with a unsmiling but satisfied face. ''​As Selina was dragged away, her eyepatch had dropped. Then, Selina had a brief illusion that Phyllis' face turned more monstrous, with a pair of glowing yellow eyes and pale face filled with malice, but only Selina could saw it. After that, Selina fully lost her consiousness, as the bailiffs dragged her away.''
 * Sae_facepalm.pngPhyllis: Believe me, Selina, I tried to help, but if I help you, I will gain the same fate as you did.
 * Phyllis: You made Reverend Knapp a place in Sleepy Hollow, and you assisted the investigation of Corbin. You are the source of his interest in the dark secrets in Sleepy Hollow, and don't think that I never know. You should feel lucky that I never tell Lord Helio about what you did. I was only trying to help.
 * Selina: You're lying. If that explained your innoncence on that chemical weapon dealing, then how can it explain about the elevator incident where Dragonia somehow disappeared from it?
 * Phyllis: Bailiff!
 * Selina: You have work for 20 years almost with no break, but after the death of Dragonia, you asked for yourself an one-month vacation for injury. What is that suppose to mean?
 * Phyllis: This conversation is over.
 * Selina: Eek!
 * Selina: You... you...
 * Phyllis: You should not have cross me, Selina. Bailiff, take her to the waiting room. She seemed tired and needed to take a rest. I told her that she should enjoy her vacation with no part-time job, but she won't listen.
 * IMG_3799.pnga: I'm not tired... Let go of me... I'm not tired...
 * Phyllis: Hmm...

Purgatory

<p style="text-align:center;"> Nether Palace 

<p style="text-align:center;"> Crow's Chamber 

''Sitting in his chair as he crossed his arms above the top of his head, Crow Faux only shrugged his shoudlers with sheer apathy. Phyllis, who was standing in the place with dismay, simply looked at Crow without any words.'' Wearing her gothic black dress and large hat, Phyllis only glared at the face of Phyllis in dismay. ''While hearing Phyllis speaking her own complaints, Crow then walked forward with an irritated face, looking at the face of Phyllis and sighed. He then turned into a much more carefree attitude.'' Looking at Crow who was opening his own sarcasm mode, Phyllis glared at Crow once again, and her stare became even more intimidating. Crow heard Phyllis speaking the word "stone" and opened his mouth widely in surprise.
 * Crow: Hmm, so Selina Strawberry was about to onto you, Ms. Prosecutor. In addituon, Jennifer Mills had escaped? I guess that Crane is the one who caused all of this mess to happen.
 * Crow: In my own point of view, I don't think you had that Zodiac Demon in you, had it not?
 * Phyllis: I don't think that I asked for your opinion, Lord Crow. I'm now as cautious as you are, and I have never expected that Selina was so catatonic. I was only saying my own opinion inside a press conference, but she then stormed into my office and accused me of an old case. She claimed that I made a falseful conviction and claimed that I was responsible for the tragic death of Dragonia Dragonfruit. 
 * 【mjt100.com】Sle-00_01_36--20171010-090123-3-.png: Anyway, you know who is the real murderer of Dragonia. I just don't want to talk about it.
 * Phyllis: Out of the question. Did you brought me the stone I need for another plan?

''Crow immediately earned a third thretening glare from the woman standing in front of him. The glare of Phyllis became much more threatening than before, and Crow had illusions of himself being trapped inside a cold, cold iceberg when he saw those eyes.'' The words of Phyllis made Crow immediately reacted and went back. ''After a brief time of shaking hands, Crow immediately turned back and went on his way, all the while cletched his teeth and fists in shock and fury. Luckily, Phyllis never saw his reactions. He was panicked.'' ''Crow did not continue to think. After all, he never supported to use the same stone that General Howe used to create another undead army, since if the Witnesses wanted to destroy them, they might go and burn the entire Sleepy Hollow to the ground with Greek Fire in order to destroy those monsters, just like how Betsy Ross destroyed those monsters... and caused the Great Fire of New York.'' Without continuing to think, Crow just went on running until he dissappeared in the long hallway...
 * Crow: The stone? You mean...
 * Phyllis: Yes, I mean that stone which General Howe used to create his undead army. Did you turn dimwit when I was gone?
 * Crow: It's still there. I'll fetch it. Good luck.
 * Crow: (think) * That dreadful hag... I thought she would want to use that long after... Using that stone to create undead soldier will be a terrible job, not to mention that the person that she wanted to revive... that person... first.*
 * Crow: (think) * She must be insane to use those kind of magic. I can't imagine what was she thinking. *

<p style="text-align:center;"> 5 minutes later 

''Crow did not took long to find what Phyllis requested him to find. It was another flat stone, the similar one to what Christine once was about to give to Howe in order to create an undead army.''
 * Crow: So, is this what you want?

''Phyllis walked forward and took a closer look. Soon, a devious smile of delight began to surface on her pale face.'' ​Crow was not amused. ''Phyllis was not offended by the words of Crow. Instead, she immediately took the stone from the hand of Crow, before he was about to hand it over to her.'' Before completing her words, Phyllis narrowed her eyes and grinned in a wicked manner, and Crow only looked at her with nothing but disdain. Then, Phyllis stopped smiling and returned to her formal and serious expression. ''As she was speaking, the body of Phyllis started to change back into her more humane form, as her own prosecutor's uniform had return to her body. Phyllis then crossed her arm with a cold look.'' ''Just then, a purple light suddenly appeared beside the two, and Phyllis rolled her eyes to the left to see what exactly was goin on. A mild smile surfaced upon her face.'' ''Crow had turned his head and looked at the purple light, which turned itself into a violet hologram. It was a woman in armor and with long argent hair. It was nobody but Melancholia, who was calling from another timeline, with a serious face.'' ''Swiftly with no fear on her face, Phyllis turned to the purple hologram of Melancholia with a calm face. She then spoke in a calm manner.'' Hearing all of this, Melancholia crossed her fingers with a sly smirk hanging on her face. ''Phyllis merely swayed her arm as she smiled in a devious manner again. Crow did not react. He only watched sacarstically as the other two started to converse.'' ''Hearing Phyllis' report, Melancholia smirked as well. She was obviously pleased with it.'' ''​Phyllis widened her eyes into size of two marbles, and she let out an "ohhhh..." with surprise. She was intrigued by the plan of Melancholia in turn.'' (- Narrator: The more of Melancholia's "current project" as well as the enhance Croatoan Virus will be explained in the upcoming episodes of LOTM: Witnesses of Sleepy Hollow Spin-Off - Firenza Junior, which will continue as soon as this sub arc is over.)
 * Phyllis: Ah, yes, yes, that's it. You did well.
 * Shin.(AMNESIA).full.1483895.jpgCrow: If it was not Nether Kaysie the Demon Princess who said that she had saw a possible future... that General Howe was secretly buried in Sleepy Hollow and would be discovered by Jeffersonians... I'll consider your plan as a myth.
 * Phyllis: No matter what, how or why...
 * Phyllis: ... this plan shall be a perfect plan to raise a two-century-old horror back to Sleepy Hollow once more so that more souls would be sacrifised...
 * Phyllis: ... to pave the return for the Horseman of Death. He will definitely needs souls to return back to his prime.
 * Persona_5_sae_niijima_by_blazpu-db94mhd.jpgPhyllis: The plan will be in motion, but not now. We shall wait and see what will happen to the corpse of General Howe.
 * Phyllis: Ah, here she comes.
 * Melancholia: Peach, how was your plan with Nevins in Sleepy Hollow?
 * Phyllis: Nevins had obtained the blood of Christine Van Bilj from the body of Betsy Ross, who was killed by Christine's infection. Nevins failed to return Betsy back to life as an undead, but we managed to get the blood of Christine from her. Since Christine lost her own body, this would be our last resort.
 * Melancholia: The plan of you guys went on so smoothly, and I see no major interference from the Witnesses since you have made those evil and ravaging monsters as pawns to draw their attentions.
 * Phyllis: Let them come. After they delve into their darkest past, they'll know what kind of horrid challenge they're facing. By the way, Lady Melancholia, how was your own plan?
 * Joan.Alter.full.2127491.jpgMelancholia: Well, I had made Cardinal Antonio Borgia to do the current project for me. However, the next project requires the blood of Christine to do the job... so that I can create the enhanced version of Lord Moloch's magic plague; the Croatoan Virus!
 * Phyllis: Hmm... That shall be really interesting.

''Pausing for a bit, Phyllis then looked at the stone inside her hand with a sly smile. Then, she looked up to face the face of Melancholia once again.'' Melancholia smiled and nodded, but Crow was so shocked that he immediately had his jaw open. Finally reacting from his sarcastic look filled with poker face, Crow tried to protest as he walked to Phyllis in anger. ''Phyllis preteneded that she did not hear what Crow was saying, choosing to ignore him completely. This made Crow even more infuriated.'' ''As Crow was about to attack Phyllis, Phyllis raised her hand to summon an energy shield, blocking Crow away from her. With a scream of pain, Crow was blocked away and sent into a distance of three meters away from Phyllis, falling on the floor and could barely get up due to the pain he endured.'' After showing the attacked Crow her annoyed face, Phyllis then turned back to Melancholia with her mood turned back to calmness. Melancholia closed her eyes for a while before she started to continued.
 * Phyllis: By the way, Melancholia, if you don't mind, I will be glad to give you one of this kind of resurrection stone so that you can create your own army of undead, right after I finish the business with General Howe.
 * Melancholia: Deal.
 * Crow: What the...
 * Crow: You can't just do that! This is against the rule of my--
 * Phyllis: By the way, Crow's buying it.
 * Crow: ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME!?
 * [[File:Jeanne_alter_and_ruler_fate_grand_order_and_fate_series_drawn_by_twintails_isshou_tsui_sample-20538a6f4c72907cba8a114d3d25cee5.jpg|thumb|300px]]Phyllis: Very loud.
 * Phyllis: Thank you, Melancholia. I really appreciate your help.
 * Melancholia: By the way, Phyllis, I need to tell you that Selina Strawberry had found out that me and Michael was deceiving her. After all, it looked like she was not that pathetic fool we thought she was.

A moment of silence began to fill the room, as Phyllis looked at Melancholia with her eyes sharpening, then she started to chuckle. Reacted in sheer rage after hearing all of this, Melancholia immediately narrowed her eyes in anger. Phyllis smiled confidently before giving a salute to the evil fairy in front of her. ''Then, without any more words, Melancholia soon vanished. Phyllis, however, immediately turned back and grinned darkly.'' ''Phyllis then took a grim look to Crow, as she narrowed her eyes looking him to stand up struggling. She crossed her arms with disdained looking on her face.'' Crow tried to hold back his pain as he began to struggle himself to walk to Phyllis. Phyllis looked at him still with no emotions on her face beside disdain. ''Crow heard this and stopped struggling, before Phyllis turned back and walked to Crow in turn. The two then started to confront each other face to face, but unlike Crow, Phyllis did not lose her composure.''
 * Phyllis: Hmm, huhuhu... What an utterly unbelievable coincidence it is. She just visited me this morning and questioned me about the cases... concerning both the New York chemical weapon incident... and the missing of Dragonia Dragonfruit.
 * Melancholia: She must never find the truth, or all of your devotion to our force shall be undone! You must take care of her while hiding all of the truth behind this.
 * Phyllis: You can count on me. By the way, good luck with Firenza Junior! I'll be glad to see his inner evil that shall one day consume him!
 * Phyllis: Well, after all, one day this will all exposed, but not for now. Selina will found the truth one day, about those cases, but I will assure that the outcome shall be far away from her expectation.
 * Sae_full.pngis: Don't be afraid. I will use the same stone to give to Melancholia after we settled down the plan about General Howe.
 * Crow: You wicked woman...
 * Phyllis: But this wicked woman is now working with you in order to make Sleepy Hollow... and this world... into a living Hell on Earth, so that you could spit on that Light Lord who had betrayed you for the Stone of Wisdom.
 * Phyllis: When I get the Stone of Wisdom for you and make the world fall apart, I guess it shall be the time that you get what you always desired. I will give you the Stone of Wisdom.

''Despite still looking at Phyllis with hatred in his eyes, Crow did not do more aggresive actions. Phyllis then stopped in front of Crow as she closed her eyes.'' ''Phyllis then turned her head to Crow menacingly. For a brief time, she turned back into her demonic form again with a cruel grin.''
 * Phyllis: Also, about that so-called Wicker Wiseman...

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Phyllis: Before I seek out his true identity, you need to serve him. '

Hearing those words, Crow was infuriated once again. ''Crow was enraged to hear the name, the Wicker Wiseman, who was currently working for Twelve Nethers. This mysterious figure was not only the partner of Crow, but also his superior. He hardly really showed himself, and even if he did, he showed his human form behind the curtain and only showed his demon form to the public.  With a smirk, Phyllis transformed back into her human form, turned back and walked away.''
 * KamenRiderWizardWisemanShadow.jpg.jpgCrow: Me? Serving that silhotte who only presented himself as a Zodiac Demon without showing his true face? This is unbelievable.
 * Phyllis: If you want to survive, listen to what I said, please. Now, I have to do something else if you don't mind.

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Phyllis: Goodbye, "Gabriel". '



''With a grin as she start calling Crow "Gabriel", Phyllis disappered into the dark mist suddenly, leaving Crow standing alone while lifting his fist in fury. When he heard Phyllis calling him Gabriel, Crow was utterly and noticeably angry.'' ''With a pair of eyes full of raging fire, Crow stopped lifting his fist by swaying in down to his thigh. He then turned away.'' ''Crow then stormed into another room and shutted the door, leaving a heavy "bang" in the hall. Soon, everything fell into an almost silence. Inside mist, there was sounds of footsteps which came from high heels. It was Phyllis, walking inside the corridor with her eyes glowing in yellow.'' ''Phyllis then took a card from her pocket and had it between her index finger and her middle finger. It was a card with the same symbol appeared behind the Horseman of Death's Head...''
 * Crow: Curse you...
 * Crow: I have abandoned that name that my parents gave me when I was a human. Next time I heard you calling me that, you moron, I will not leave you alone unscathed.
 * Phyllis: Now, my dear old friends, it is not your part of hiding, not anymore. It is time for you to take some warm up.

<p style="text-align:center;"> Bar 

''The night fell upon the town of Sleepy Hollow, swallowing sunlight like a ferocious and horrible beast that nobody could tame. Only bars were still places like filled with joyful musical break and colorful and bright lights.''

''Wearing a hood and sitting inside a local bar, Jenny wandered passed a counter and felt happy to be a free spirit once again. In order to hide her identity, she was wearing sunglasses all along.''



''Then, Jenny walked towards the counter and sat in front of it. The bar oatron then poured a cup of whiskey to Jenny as she took off her sunglasses. Jenny seemed to know this man very well.''

The patron then pushed the cup to Jenny with a calm mood. Jenny did not take her cup of whiskey, however. The bar patron's name was Wendel Clark. Wendel then got his key out of his shirt pocket and went into his office, as he started to look for what Jenny was requested.
 * Patron: I think you earned this.
 * Jenny: I need my things, Wendel.
 * Wendel: Sure. Been burning a hole in my safe since you left it.

''As the bar patron was working, Jenny started to look aside with a careful face, as if she was alerted that someone ominous shall come towards her. Fortunately, no one else saw her or noticed her.''

''Wendel soon returned, with a large bag, which he put on the counter. Jenny fetch the bag gently.'' Wendel then poured another cup of whiskey as a refill. However, instead of giving Wendel a long and detailed explanation, Jenny only looked at Wendel in a serious face. Jenny paused as the patron looked at her with confusion and curiousity. ''Without saying more words, Jenny lifted her bag and swiftly walked away. Wendel looked at her walking away with confusion, though he assumed that no matter what Jenny was facing, it won't go well.''
 * Jenny: Thanks. I owe you one.
 * Wendel: You owe me nothing.
 * Wendel: Except an explanation would be nice.
 * IMG_3803.pngJenny: Remember when I told you one day this town was gonna go straight to Hell?

<p style="text-align:center;"> Meanwhile 

<p style="text-align:center;"> A local bungalow 



''Inside a small bungalow, a young child was playing the piano as a middle-aged man was looking at him. This man had a name; Gunther. He was a local piano teacher. He looked at his student with a serious face.'' ''The boy looked at his teacher and then continued to play the piano, taking his teacher's advice. The teacher looked at the boy with a satisfying nod, but then he heard his cell phone rang. He took a look at the phone's screen and looked at the name on it.''
 * Gunther: Left hand down. Always the left hand will save you.

<p style="text-align:center;"> Lord Moloch 

''Gunther then looked at his student and walked aside to answer the phone. The deep voice of Moloch had come from the phone.'' With a devious smile surfacing on his face, Gunther slowly hang up the phone.
 * Gunther_is_informed_by_an_associate.pnger: Please continue from here -- the ninth measure.
 * Moloch: [I just got the news from Crow Faux. Jennifer Mills escaped. We have reason to believe she knows where Item 37 is located. You find her and then retrieve Item 37. A cleanup crew will arrive to assist your search. They have a list of her known associates. Hang up if you understand.]

<p style="text-align:center;"> The next day 

<p style="text-align:center;"> Wendel Clark's Bar 

''The dawn's early light finally shone upon the town of Sleepy Hollow. Wendel Clark, the bar patron, was working in his bar cleaning up glasses and shelves, when he suddenly heard someone opened the door. Surprised, Wendel turned back and looked at the man in front of him. It was a middle aged man with grayish hair.'' The man slowly sat in front of the patron in a calm face. Wendel then was altered to hear so, as there were two other people went into the hall and sat on both sides beside Gunther, respectively.
 * Wendel: May I help you?
 * 104Gunther.pngGunther: My associates and I seek a woman who may have entered your establishment, yes?


 * Gunther: Jennifer Mills?

''Wendel looked at the three strange guests in front of him, and he could felt some malice deep inside their eyes. He was scared, but hiding his feelings, Wendel answered in a calm tone.'' ''Gunther turned his head and looked at one of his sidekicks, both unconvinced. He then turned back to Wendel and leaned forward to him.'' ''Wendel did not answer. The two then stared between each other with no trace of truce.'' ''Wendel then looked aside and immediately lifted a rifle to Gunther's head. However, Gunther did not move or panicked. He sat in a stoic manner, looking at the patron in a calm and cold face.'' ''Gunther looked at the gun and looked at the man... before he grabbed the arm of Wendel and dragged him from the other side of the counter with ease. Before he could react, Wendel was dragged on the counter, sliding on it and slided onto the ground.''
 * IMG_3807.pngWendel: Never heard of her, fella. Look, a lot of women come in here. Yesterday, Ms. Sarandon just came for a visit, but she was the only female client that talked to me. You guys got to go.
 * Gunther: Lies requires commitment, Mr. Clark. Are you quite certain you're committed to your cause?
 * Gunther: I assure you I am.
 * Wendel: Hmm... well, I'll tell you what.
 * Wendel: You all walk out of here, and I won't redecorate this place with your face.

Gunther then took the rifle away and looked at the patron with scorn.

<p style="text-align:center;"> Inside the billard room

''Opening his tool box which filled with all sorts of torture tools, Gunther looked at the struggling Wendel on the table as the latter tried hard to curse him. The minions of Gunther was surrounding Wendel, holding him down on a pool table with a pool stick, of which they used to press on Wendel's neck.'' As Wendel was struggling in pain, Gunther walked forward and went towards him with a tool he had just chose. ''Wendel could hardly breath and he could hardly make a response. Gunther then went to Gunther with his tool. It was a drill.'' As Gunther's minions continued their torture, Wendel nodded as his head start sweating. ''Gunther walked forward and raised his tool to Wendel. It was a large hook'' Wendel angrily glared at Gunther, but Gunther merely shook his head. Gunther then raised his drill and pressed it towards Wendel neck...
 * Wendel: Son of a b***h...
 * IMG_3810.pngGunther: No matter Jennifer Mills or Selina Sarandon, they are both threats for my crew. However, I guess Ms. Mills will be more plausible to have enough free time to visit your bar. Don't treat me like an idiot.
 * Gunther: She was here, right?
 * Wendel: Yes, yes, she was here...
 * Gunther: Excellent start.
 * IMG_3812.pngGunther: However... progress requires suffering to evolve.
 * Wendel: Go to Hell!

Lyrics
It waits for the day I will let it out.

To give it a reason, to give its might.

I fear who I am becoming,

I feel that I am losing the struggle within.

I can no longer restrain it,

my strength it is fading,

I have to give in.

It's the fear

Fear of the dark

It's growing inside of me,

that one day will come to life.

Have to save

To save my beloved,

there is no escape,

because my faith is horror and doom.

Hold down your head now,

just let me pass by.

Don't feed my fear,

if you don't want it out.

I fear who I am becoming,

I feel that I am losing all beauty within.

I can no longer restrain it,

my strength is fading.

I have to give in.

It's the fear

Fear of the dark

It's growing inside of me,

that one day will come to life.

Have to save

To save my beloved,

there is no escape,

because my faith is horror and doom.

Long ago it came to me

and ever since that day,

infected with its rage

but it ends today.

It's the fear

Fear of the dark

It's growing inside of me,

that one day will come to life.

Have to save

To save my beloved,

there is no escape,

because my faith is horror and doom.

Afterwords

 * From Officer: This episode included a scene of Phyllis Peach and Crow Faux which I forgot to put in the last episode, and the cases that it connected shall be included in another upcoming spinoff. This episode shall marks the beginning of Jenny Mills' return as a major character in the story. Originally, this sub arc was named Jenny Sub Arc, but the I decided to add more into the arc in order to resolve many unsolved mysteries in The Cranes Arc, filling some parts that the last season was not involved. Therefore, its name was changed into  Haunting Past Sub Arc ...
 * From CIS: Some new character pages were created for both of our ongoing projects and are currently in constructions. See: Kanon Rihavein (Heis), Pedro Pineapple, Oriax Wheelahr and Lavenna Lavender. More characters will arrive soon. Please beware of spoilers!
 * ​In the end, we must clarify: The monster in this episode, Ro'kenhronteys, is an original creation of Sleepy Hollow series. It does not exist in Mohawk mythology at all.
