From the last Sub Arc of LOTM: Witnesses of Sleepy Hollow...



 * Ichabod Crane: From the last Sub Arc of LOTM: Witnesses of Sleepy Hollow...

''Sent by the power of the magic mirror, Ichabod and his allies were teleported back to Van Bilj Facility. The Team Witness then looked around and found themselves at the hall of Van Bilj Facility.'' ''The red light were flashed violently, and Ichabod widened his eyes. He immediately remembered the self destruction system.'' ''Selina shook her head calmly, and people around her all looked at the towering woman in her red dress and her red mask. Selina only shrugged her shoulder with no fear.'' ''Ichabod looked at Selina with curiosity. He politely interrupted Selina's word.'' ''Did not feeling angry at all, Selina smiled as she blinked her eyes. Her smile was hidden by her mask.'' Ichabod nodded confidently. Selina chuckled like a joking child.
 * Abbie: It looked like the magic mirror itself had tricked us.
 * Selina: No, he sent us to the place where we came from. Maybe he did not know it was Sleepy Hollow.
 * Ichabod: If this place blew up, I think it will inflict the town, right?
 * Selina: There is no need to be bothered, Mr. Crane.
 * 49768056_p11_master1200.jpgSelina: I created a magic shield around this plant, and it will prevent the explosion to affect the town of Sleepy Hollow. It will also make the destruction into a minimum scale. I give you my word. All we need to do is go to the town's boarder via my teleportation, and I will call an ambulance for you. There is a hospital where...
 * Ichabod: Sorry to interrupt, but... You know who I am? Who are you?
 * Selina: If I tell you my true identity, can you keep my true identity as a secret?
 * Ichabod: Yes, I can.

' - Selina: Well, me, too. '

Ichabod widened his eyes as Sister Mary Eunice and Abbie smile to each other. ​Selina smile as well... ''... when suddenly, Selina's smile faded. Ichabod had found something was wrong. Sister Mary Eunice had widened her eyes and was startled as well. Ichabod was confused.'' ''​Ichabod turned back as Abbie raised her gun. She walked towards the man who stood at the door - Atticus Nevins.'' ​Abbie knew who Nevins are, given to his former friendship with Corbin. Nevins slowly raised his hands and smiled in calmness. Nevins looked at Abbie as the latter glared at him with rage. Abbie shook her head. ''Sister Mary Eunice and Ichabod both looked at each other with surprise. They never knew that Corbin had a son. Even so, they looked at Nevins as the latter still grinned at her. The time was running out, but Nevins seemed never bothered at all.'' Nevins looked at Abbie with a cold smile. Abbie heard this and immediately looked at Nevins with surprise. ''Nevins turned back and then he revealed the replica Blood Moon Ring on his hand. He then opened his coat and revealed the things inside his inner pocket - Caspar's pin, Christine's fake bracelet and Colin's real ring.''
 * 【mjt100.com】Sle-00_30_19--20170728-190958-0-.pngIchabod: Well, I know. You are really... really trustworthy...
 * Selina: No problem...
 * Sister Mary Eunice: Crane... behind you...
 * Nevins: It looks like you guys are chatting really well in here. May I cut in if you don't mind?
 * Abbie: Shut the hell up and I will take you to jail. You and Corbin had a lot of debt between you.
 * Nevins: You think I am the villain here? No, no, no, no, it doesn't work like that. In this game, Lt. Mills, the debts collects you.
 * Nevins: Your sheriff learned that the hard way.
 * Abbie: I am not like Corbin.
 * Nevins: Yeah... and have you ever asked yourself why you need to know? Why we're playing ring-around-the-rosy over this little town? You're exactly like him. You and his son, Joe, you two are exactly like him.
 * Nevins: You're drawn to the darkness, and you can't look away. That... badge of your sheriff, that uh...
 * Nevins: Mayberry sheriff vibe... that was not August Corbin. No, he knew the truth.
 * Blood_moon_by_koobazz.jpgs: Two covens in Sleepy Hollow? One is good and one is evil? Hmm... There is no good... no evil...

Ichabod, Sister Mary Eunice, Pandora, Mr. Gold, Selina and Abbie all watched with horror as he opened the box beside him, revealing something that made them screamed...



<p style="text-align:center;">The corpse of Betsy Ross.

<p style="text-align:center;"> '- Nevins: ... Just power.'

''Nevins raised his hand and immediately summoned the real bracelet of Christine, making it slipped from the hand of Sister Mary Eunice to the hand of his. Ichabod widened his eyes when he saw the corpse of Betsy.'' ''Nevins raised his other hand and touched the box with his palm. The box containing the body of Betsy disappeared before Ichabod reached it.'' Nevins slowly opened his mouth and spoke a name that made everyone in front of him startled.
 * Ichabod: What have you done to her?
 * Nevins: I am yet to do things on her. Christine is dead, indeed. I just need to take the corpse of Betsy Ross. She still have Christine's evil blood inside her, which will benefit my plan. Our master and that man will both be pleased when the latter returned to this place.
 * Abbie: That man?
 * Nevins: He and I both serve the same Master that Christine served. You six people all know his name.



<p style="text-align:center;">' - Nevins: His name is Michael Langdon. '

​Sister Mary Eunice immediately tried to charge at Nevins, but Selina blocked her way. Selina then narrowed her eyes and bit her lips. Nevins chuckled and he looked at Selina. Nevins blinked his eyes with a cruel smile. ''After throwing these sarcastic words, Nevins suddenly disappeared with a cruel smile. Sister Mary Eunice tried to grab the collar of Nevins, but it was too late.''
 * Fate.Grand.Order.full.2067609.jpgSister Mary Eunice: Damn you!
 * Selina: Sister, please, there is no time. This time, he won, but next time we will make him pay. I give you my word.
 * Selina: Because I have my own debt of blood between me and that man named Michael Langdon. I want to pay it with blood.
 * Nevins: Pathetic, young lady. I know who you are, but I am not going to tell anyone about it.
 * Selina: I cannot trust you.
 * Nevins: You are just wasting the time here. I will leave here now. If you don't want to die here... now it's the time to leave. Next time if you met Betsy, Mr. Crane, maybe she will be revived as well, just like me!

<p style="text-align:center;"> Countdown to explosion 

<p style="text-align:center;">' Ten, nine, eight... '

''Selina immediately used her teleportation magic... and soon they disappeared almost immediately.''
 * Sister Mary Eunice: No, we must leave here!
 * Selina: Run!!!

<p style="text-align:center;">' ... Three, two, one... '



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

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

<p style="text-align:center;"> 10 minutes later 

''Selina awoke beside the road. She stood up and looked around. She saw Sister Mary Eunice on the ground, sitting beside Abbie and Ichabod, who were both unconscious.'' ''Selina looked at Sister Mary Eunice, who nodded at her with a smile. Selina looked around, and she found no trace of Pandora and Mr. Gold. They must have left already.'' ''Selina bit her lips and stompped her right foot in anger. She then immediately realized what to do next. Selina opened the phone and looked at the Witnesses.'' ''Just then, someone answer the telephone. Selina immediately reacted an answered it, all the while looking at Ichabod and Abbie.''
 * Selina: Sister?
 * Atticus_Nevins-SHS3.pngSelina: (think) * Atticus Nevins had won... It is cruel, but he had won... *
 * Selina: Mm.......

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Selina: Please... I need an ambulance... '

''After the Team Witness, their allies and the unconscious citizens had left for their respective place through the Magic Mirror, Christine's remains still was inside the place. At this point Christine was now nothing but something fragmental and turned into several burning fragments...'' ''A scornful female voice, follow some noise of footsteps, had entered the Mirror World. It was Valindra Shadowmantle, who was looking at the remains of Christines with dismay and anger. She did not waste the time to insult Christine's remain.'' Valindra then summoned a purple aura inside her hand and soon, she gathered the ashes of Christine as well as the ashes of Blood Moon Witches. ''Valindra heard a strange laughter like some snake's hissing, and she turned back with annoyance. As she was expected, it was Marlos Urnayle, the Prophet of Earth, who looked at Valindra with a teasing expression.'' ''The words of Marlos made Valindra disgusted. In fact, Marlos is the only one of the Elemental Prophets (beside Aerisi) who is full of extreme vanity, and his vanity even exceeded to Aerisi's narcissism.''
 * ???: Hmm, Christine Van Bilj, do you know why you died? You talked too much and showed too less strength.
 * Valindra: It is a shame that you are not on my side. However, I will take you back and bring you back one day. Soon enough, I will make you even more powerful and vicious than before, maybe worse than I am.
 * ???: You are going to revive her? I am afraid one day he will surpass you, Lady Valindra, hissssahahaha...
 * Marlos: To enter this pathetic world, you need to use my mirror... and that is so pathetic to see. I do not know about this but you will swallow your own bitter pills if you don't make her into a lich.

Hearing his words, Valindra was absolutely annoyed. With quite an annoyance, Valindra then turned back as she put the purple sphere inside her palms. ''Marlos fell silent and looked at Valindra with some annoyance. Valindra then made the ashes into a shape of a skull and looked at with a horrifying smile.'' ​Marlos blinked his eyes. Valindra then smiled wickedly before turning back to approach the Magic Mirror, as the Magic Mirror to look at her with nothing but fear.
 * Valindra: (think) At least, Aerisi still have her own charm to be narcissistic, but what do you think you are, Marlos? You are just a rich but stinky medusa!
 * Valindra: Marlos, spare me your sermons. I did not want you to follow me here, and yet you did not listen. If you speak like some kind of spoiled child again, don't blame me for my following punishment.
 * Valindra: I will bring her back as a living, not undead. I have no authority to order her, but I have my plan to make her stronger. This is what they are capable of...
 * Marlos: They?
 * ValindraBrokenFace.jpgValindra: Moloch and Vizeran DeVir referred them as the Witness, and I believe after we activated the Seeds of Elemental Power, they will die.
 * Valindra: First of all, however, I need to bring the ashes of Christine back to Matron Malice. I will return you your mirror after we returned to the Reclamation Rock. Good news here for you, you will not come with me to Do'Urden's house.

Valindra then stopped as she muttered another word. ''Marlos shook his head and chuckled bitterly. He then smiled devilishly as the snake hair was wriggling in a horrible manner.''
 * Valindra: By the way, Marlos, don't forget to find Drizzt Do'Urden for me. Our bargain is still yet from over. That thorn in my shoes must be removed!
 * Marlos: As you wish.

Captain Frank Irving looked at the paper given by Selina Strawberry with suspicion in his eyes. ''Irving looked at Selina in a poker face. Selina sighed and smiled at Irving.'' Irving looked at Selina with a cryptic look of sarcasm.
 * Selina: It seems that you never did trust me, Captain.
 * Selina: Never worry, captain. I have specialized some project that can remove bad memories from those citizens. I made them forgot those horrifying memories, and therefore I managed to put the panic down. However, I am not sure if I am going to use that "thing" again.

Selina nodded with a sigh. ​Selina shook her head and closed her eyes. Selina then bit her lips as she dared not look at the eyes of Irving, which were staring at her as if she was also a criminal. Captain Irving sighed in relief. Selina looked at Irving and was relieved as well. Irving then took a look at Ichabod Crane, who was still napping on the chair. ''Selina lowered her head and closed her eyes. She seemed cared deeply for Ichabod.'' Selina turned back to Captain Irving with a calm smile. ''Selina then left promptly. Irving sat back on his chair and fell into thoughts.''
 * Irving: "Thing"?
 * Selina: It was my invention... but it could only be used in extreme situation like this, and I am not sure if I am going to use that again. This panic was bigger than before, and captain, since this is a secret war, we need to keep it as secret as possible.
 * Irving: What about those people who did not survive in these messes?
 * Selina: The only pain it can't be erased was the death in the family. I cannot erase them. That was too cruel. For now, their death could only be explained with "paranormal". It sounds like a rush work, but I have to do this.
 * 49768056_p15_master1200.jpgSelina: Please don't ask more, captain. Once you know the truth, once you join all of this, there is no turning back. It is not like you let someone joined a surprise party which the surprise was reserved for them very specifically. This is war, a war should be done unnoticed, or people will pay with their life.
 * Irving: Very well, Ms. Sarandon, and I hope you will enjoy your vacation. How is Detective Luke Morales?
 * Selina: He is recovering and his mental status became normal once again. Maybe he would be out of hospital by next week.
 * Irving: He has been sleeping for several hours after that.
 * Selina: It's true, and fortunately, he was alive. I will leave for a while and then return here to check this Crane's personal conditions.
 * Selina: Goodbye, Captain Irving.

Selina sat in the bar and smiled when the patron got her a cup of cider, her favorite alcohol and a relaxing drink for her after such a long work. Selina allowed her mind wander when the bar patron gave her the cup of cider.
 * Selina: A cup of cider, please.
 * Selina: (narrator) * Finally, my winter vacation is here. Even so, I am really excited for waiting the next part of my jobs. Everything in the future is unknown. All you need to do is to keep a good work, like I do. *
 * Bar patron: Here, Ms. Sarandon.
 * Selina: Many thanks.

''After drinking the cup of cider, Selina felt relaxed. She then took a small note and paid for the price, and then, when she turned back, she knocked into someone else, someone much shorter than her.''
 * Selina: Oh! Ah!

''Selina looked at the person, who was a woman with short black hair and white dress. The woman was holding a cup of champagne and it spilled some on Selina's dress.''



However, instead of becoming angry, Selina apologized first. The white dressed woman, however, shook her head with a smile. Selina smiled as well when the woman continued. The woman in white nodded with a smile and shook the hand with Selina. As a response, Selina shook her hand with Selina, all the while wearing a cryptic smile. ''At this point, Pandora sighed helplessly though she was still smile. Her smile became visibly sadder.'' ''Selina did not understand what Pandora meant, and she smiled at Pandora in a frivolous manner as some kind of a joke. Pandora laughed as well.'' Selina nodded with a smile as well. She was referring to Ichabod Crane. ''Pandora smiled as well, and she nodded. For a while, Selina paused and then she continued.'' ''Selina then handed her name card to Pandora. Then, Pandora happily accepted. Selina cryptically smiled at Pandora, as if she was somethine familiar to her .''
 * Selina: Oh, well, I'm sorry. Let me get you another.
 * ???: Oh, you know what? It's okay. I'm gonna take that as a sign that it's time to call it a night and go back home.
 * ???: Or to the hotel, rather. Mm-hmm.
 * Selina: You're from out of town?
 * ???: Yes, I just arrived.
 * ???: I'm Pandora.
 * 【mjt100.com】Sle-00_42_33--20170727-183554-0-.pngSelina: My name is Selina. "Pandora"? This is an interesting name. It's like the lady with the... the box.
 * Pandora: The lady with the box?
 * Pandora: Yeah... which is actually more of a dowry.
 * -Ichabod-ichabod-crane-sleepy-hollow-tv-series-37189436-642-720.jpgPandora: Ha-ha, you know, I used to study classics, so I tend to get a little carried away with the old stories sometimes.
 * Selina: There is someone else in the town just like that.
 * Selina: Maybe you would like to meet him in your own eyes.
 * Selina: Well, welcome to Sleepy Hollow. I bet you will feel like you are home in here. Here is my card, and contact me if you have problems.



''Selina then put on her coat and slowly walked to the door. Pandora watched as Selina walked away.'' Pandora then turned into a more serious and scary expression, with her eyes glowing in light green aura, like that of a snake.
 * Pandora: (think) * She was like she had recognized me as someone who helped the Witnesses... I think she is not that simple. It looks like Sleepy Hollow is full of surprises. Anyway, no matter what happens here... *

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Pandora: It always feels like a home. '

<p style="text-align:center;"> Underdark  <p style="text-align:center;"> Do'Urden Castle  <p style="text-align:center;"> Matron Throne Room 

''Inside the Matron Throne Room of Do'Urden Family, Valindra Shadowmantle stood in front of Matron Malice Do'Urden, reporting her about a recent news. Malice heard this and immediately widened her eyes in shock.'' ''Valindra nodded her head with calmness, as if it was none of her business. Matron Malice bit her lips and trembled in great terror. The Matron was infuriated that she even spill the blood red wine inside the cup in her hand.'' Valindra, however, still kept her calm at this very moment, as she only looked at the panicked Matron with a calm and cold expression. Valindra paused and then her own expression turned darker.
 * Valindra: Christine Van Bilj is dead, My Matron. I suspect that the so-called Witnesses are supposed to be responsable.
 * Malice: Christine Van Bilj?
 * Malice: What... the Underdark are those so-called Two Witness? They... they defeated one of the most trusted and most sadistic minions of Moloch?
 * Valindra: Matron Malice, if I may say... perhaps the death of Christine will show us how those called Two Witnesses on Earth is capable of, and we will do anything to prevent being exterminated by them...

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Valindra: ... not to mention that I have already conceiving a new plan to bring Christine back to life. '

''Matron Malice heard this and she immediately widened her eyes in surprise. Valindra still looked at her calmly. It was obvious that she did not boasted or lied.'' Finally getting out of her calm and aloof face, Valindra nodded with a sadistic grin. Malice looked aside and bit her lips. Valindra smiled confidently and then she bowed in front of Matron Malice.
 * Malice: Are you sure?
 * ValindraBrokenFace.jpgValindra: I collected some remains of Christine, and I shall summon her soul and create a new body for her. The only problem is that this might cost some time, and if I do this job, maybe you need to find another person to find your son, Drizzt.
 * Malice: Porcelain can deal with this. I will send her to the search of Drizzt. I permit your work, but if you failed this within one month, I will have you head!

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Valindra: Do not worry, Matron Malice. Valindra Shadowmantle never fails. '

''Ichabod suddenly awakened from his nightmare, finding himself sitting in a chair, and he took some time before he could calm down. After that, Ichabod looked around before he heard a soft and calm voice talking to him.'' ''Ichabod turned his head and widened his eyes, as if he was shocked. However, Ichabod soon relented when he saw a tall and thin woman, standing next to his seat with red dress and red hair. She was wearing a black eye-patch. Her presence made Ichabod very confused.'' ''Ichabod slowly stood up and asked the question, all the while regaining his own composure. The woman smiled at Ichabod.'' It was Selina "Strawberry" Sarandon standing in front of Ichabod, with her face soon turned more serious when looking at Ichabod. ''Hearing this, Selina looked around as if she was looking for someone that was beside them. Selina then whispered to Ichabod.'' The two people then went to the corridor, and then they began to talk. ''Selina then sighed in relief as she entered an empty room. She then turned her head back to Ichabod.'' ''Selina then opened the newspaper and it showed the headline news, "The Mystery of Sleepy Hollow Disappeared". With confusion, Ichabod started to read the news with the newspaper inside his hand. He widened his eyes, but Selina slightly smiled.'' ''Selina nodded with confidence and smiled.  ​Selina paused and then she lowered her head with a sigh, and her face turned more unhappy.'' Selina then sighed as she stayed calm and aloof. Ichabod immediately realized what the problem was. ''Selina then bit her lips. Her face became more incensed. She slowly clenched her fist.'' ​Ichabod then looked aside and closed his eyes. ''Ichabod heard this and looked at Selina with surprise. Selina remained serious before she revealed a envelope from her pocket.'' Selina then handed the envelope to Ichabod. ​With confusion, Ichabod took the letter from Selina's hand and opened the envelope. ''Ichabod heard this and was surprised. He looked at the letter and immediately recognized the writing style of Washington.'' Selina nodded with calm. Ichabod then read the letter.
 * ???: Sorry to disturb you, Mr. Crane. You slept for more than four hours.
 * Ichabod: I am sorry, miss. May I have your name, please?
 * ???: My name is Selina Sarandon. I am the town mayor's maid and secretary.
 * Selina: Mr. Crane, I am here to inform you that I found you and Lt. Mills in the town's streets before sending you back to the street.
 * Ichabod: Thank you, miss, but... how do you know my name? Why did you look for me?
 * Selina: We will talk in a place away from the crowd.
 * Selina: The following talk between you and me, Crane, we need to keep secret to each other. Do you understand me?
 * Ichabod: Oh, I am a man of my word. I will keep secrets on everything. In fact, I know you are the one who...
 * 43879477_p0.pngSelina: Hush...
 * Selina: In fact, I know who you are, Ichabod Crane. I know many things, including some top secrets within the town. I know how to cover up your trace to keep the public.
 * Ichabod: What did you mean?
 * Ichabod: All of the victims were spared?
 * Selina: There were no evidence that those citizens had caused the recent mayhem inside this town. I helped the town to spare them all. Captain Irving did not ask too much on this, and he complimented Abbie for her good work. The bad news is, he is still yet doubting you. However, I can assure you that he is now impressed by you.
 * Mckey_mary-eunice_9763.jpgSelina: For the citizens who have been killed, I need to attend some funerals after this meeting. As for those survivors, they could not remember and/or spoke what they suffered, and I guess... the trauma will affect them throughout their life.
 * Ichabod: Where is Sister Mary Eunice? Did she know about you?
 * Selina: Maybe, and maybe not, but I managed to save you all from the Mirror World. Then, you both were teleported to the street, and I sent you and Abbie back to this town. Sister Mary Eunice is taking care of Abbie, and those Hexenmeister Members and Fairy Tale characters returned back to their realm... but there is only one problem exists.
 * Ichabod: That man known as Atticus Nevins.
 * Atticus_Nevins-SHS3.pngSelina: FBI itself had put a search warrent for Atticus Nevins, and yet he is yet to be found. However, since he was now classified as a global terrorist, I guess Nevins won't get away so easy.
 * Ichabod: The sad thing is that he took Betsy Ross' corpse away, and I do not know what he was planning next...
 * Selina: Yes, I know, but you must find out.
 * Selina: As your reward to stop Christine Van Bilj and her malevolent plan, I, on behalf of the mayor and every citizens of Sleepy Hollow, shall present you a gift as a reward, Mr. Ichabod Crane.
 * Selina: I found this letter in the Archives, and I lend it. Corbin is an old friend of mine. Then, I shall bring it to you.
 * 402Washington.pngSelina: Please read it. It is written by General Washington.
 * Ichabod: The year was 1798?
 * Selina: Please, read it.

''Inside the base of Hexenmeister Community, Emma Swan was facing a man in black outfit like someone who was attending a masque. The man was wearing a mask and spoke in a tone like an old man.'' A moment of silence later, Emma broke the silence with anger and disgust. ''The masked man, who was revealed to be the new leader of the Hexenmeister Community, did not answer or show any emotions. Anyway, his emotions was hidden by his own mask.'' ''The masked man shook his head. Emma seemed very disappointed by his reactions, but it was obvious that he never feel bothered at all.'' After hearing all of this, Emma could only bit her lips in anger just as the masked man continued slowly and gently. Emma did not fear the masked man and she immediately went forward. ''The masked man seemed to be offended, and he looked at Emma immediately. Through his mask, Emma saw his eyes widened.'' The masked man seemed to get much, much calmer, and he turned his head back with a slow speed. ''Emma narrowed her eyes and bit her lips. She had her own ability to seek out lies, and she did not find any lies inside the masked man's words.'' The masked man nodded his head and sighed. Emma then bit her lips and looked at the masked man before the latter stood up and left. Emma immediately turned back and stormed out of the room.
 * Masked Man: Why are you coming here, Ms. Swan? Can't you see that you cannot put your own will forcefully upon me?
 * Emma: Ever since you became the leader of the Hexenmeister Community, you brought us in it, and now we behave like cowards. You called us back from Sleepy Hollow merely due to small assaults, but killing Christine Van Bilj will conclude the assault with our victory!
 * Emma: Was it because... because of you never want us to help the Witnesses?
 * Masked Man: Emma, you must understand all these circumstances. We cannot sacrifice our good to help two mere mortals who just can't adjust themselves to the reality.
 * 220444-183088-mephisto.jpgMasked Man: Beside, Mephisto is a greater threat than Christine. He rose those assaults, not Christine. We are helping Arendelle, not Sleepy Hollow. Unless the town itself falls into ruins, or many things will gone, just gone, unnoticed and forgotten, never to be know by people out of the town.
 * Emma: Leader, I think you are hiding something like a self-serving purpose.
 * Emma: Never forget about my own ability. I can see through your lie if I want to, but I am sparing you from your final indignity. Tell me, what do you want from Mephisto? What made you so desperate to take him down that you even ignored many other threats?
 * Masked Man: Only a few pages of books, but that pages of books means greatly for me... for us.
 * 215SpellBook1.pngEmma: Pages of books? A magic book?
 * Masked Man: Yes, and that is no ordinary magic book. I can only tell you this much now. I need to go for a rest, and leave my office now. I will find who the spy truly is.
 * Emma: (think) * One day, I will find who you truly are and what you did. I will expose it to everyone in this world. I will see people know who you truly are, and I am going to enjoy it. *

Ichabod widened his eyes with surprise when he read about the letter, and he looked at the words, "under the request of Betsy Ross"... Selina shook her head with a sigh. Ichabod then handed the letter of Washington back to Selina. ''Ichabod slowly turned back to Selina with his eyes widened. Selina began to become sadder in looks, and Ichabod did not know what to say to comfort this enigmatic woman.'' ''Selina then closed her eyes before she sighed and walked towards the door. Tears started to stream down her eyes despite she tried herself not to cry.'' ''Ichabod looked at Selina as she went away, and he then went out of the room as well. No one heard their talking, and no one was interested in what they talked about.''
 * Ichabod: Betsy? I thought she was... transformed and trapped... in 1798.
 * Selina: Well, this... is what I am yet to know. However, I assume that it was her soul who returned back to her time and continued to live until the day she died according to the history. She might visited a retired General Washington and sent you this letter.
 * Ichabod: George Washington founded a secret organization to battle the supernatural.
 * Selina: Actually, he allowed one secret organization to stabilize Sleepy Hollow and battle the supernatural. I am one of them.
 * Selina: Our leaders' intentions were noble. We are not all bad people, though many of us have lost their way. If you qualified to be one of us, to be one of our leaders, you must adjust everything that was wrong.
 * Selina: Forgive them... for they do not know what they do.

''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. That's where you find you're not alone.
 * Ichabod: Lieutenant?
 * Ichabod: Are you all right?

''In the Room No. 49, Jenny Mills was doing push-ups inside her room one time after another, sweating and feeling anxious as if she was feeling something horrid. At this time, a female orderly arrived at the scene with a cart that carried medicines and all kind of tools.'' ''Jenny stopped doing push-ups and looked at the orderly. Then, she breath out. The orderly then turned to the cart and grabbed two small cups on an iron plate, with some tags written on the plate.''
 * Orderly: Tonight, Mills.

<p style="text-align:center;"> Mills, Jennifer <p style="text-align:center;"> Delusional Disorder  <p style="text-align:center;"> Chlorpromazine 35mg Capsule 

Jenny stood up as the orderly bring her one of the cups, with a capsule inside it.
 * 10719568526_36880005f6_b.jpgOrderly: Seen any monsters lately, Jenny?

Jenny peeked at the cup before she looked at the orderly straight into her face once again. ''Jenny swiftly and calmly took the cup from the orderly and put the capsule inside her mouth, seemly swallowing it. The orderly then gave her the second cup filled with water, but Jenny did not drank it. She swayed her hand and refused it.'' ''Jenny calmly opened her mouth, and the orderly checked this carefully. There was no capsule inside. It was seemed that Jenny swallowed the medicine.'' Jenny nodded her head and closed her mouth. ''The orderly pushed the cart away before closing the door, all the while Jenny was watching this. However, Jenny soon spat out the capsule hidden under her tongue and immediately crushed it with her foot until it was ground into dust. Then, Jenny crouched and blew the dust away, leaving no trace on the floor. Jenny then looked at a news hanging on the wall, which was cut from a newspaper 13 years ago.''
 * Jenny: No, ma'am... Not since I've been taking these.
 * Orderly: Open.
 * Orderly: Good girl.
 * Orderly: Lights out in five minutes.

<p style="text-align:center;"> Mills Sisters Found 

''Afterwards, Jenny put an long iron bar on the window and started to do chinning. However, after that, the lights out... and Jenny heard a mysterious whisper behind her, as if there was someone or something behind her...'' ''Jenny immediately stopped chinning and turned back, but strangely, Jenny found no one there. A face full of horror soon surfaced on the face of Jenny as she looked around...''
 * Jenny: (!?)

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

<p style="text-align:center;">Now and then I think of when we were together

<p style="text-align:center;">Like when you said you felt so happy you could die

<p style="text-align:center;">Told myself that you were right for me

<p style="text-align:center;">But felt so lonely in your company

<p style="text-align:center;">But that was love and it's an ache I still remember

<p style="text-align:center;">You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness

<p style="text-align:center;">Like resignation to the end, always the end

<p style="text-align:center;">So when we found that we could not make sense

<p style="text-align:center;">Well you said that we would still be friends

<p style="text-align:center;">But I'll admit that I was glad it was over

<p style="text-align:center;">But you didn't have to cut me off

<p style="text-align:center;">Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing

<p style="text-align:center;">And I don't even need your love

<p style="text-align:center;">But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough

<p style="text-align:center;">No you didn't have to stoop so low

<p style="text-align:center;">Have your friends collect your records and then change your number

<p style="text-align:center;">I guess that I don't need that though

<p style="text-align:center;">Now you're just somebody that I used to know

<p style="text-align:center;">Now you're just somebody that I used to know

<p style="text-align:center;">Now you're just somebody that I used to know

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

<p style="text-align:center;">Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over

<p style="text-align:center;">But had me believing it was always something that I'd done

<p style="text-align:center;">But I don't wanna live that way

<p style="text-align:center;">Reading into every word you say

<p style="text-align:center;">You said that you could let it go

<p style="text-align:center;">And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know

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

<p style="text-align:center;">But you didn't have to cut me off

Purgatory
<p style="text-align:center;"> Moloch's lair 

<p style="text-align:center;"> 1 day after Christine's death 

''Standing in Moloch's lair, Atticus Nevins watched the face of a young Ichabod in a mirror with a cold and harsh face, staring into the eyes of Ichabod. Nevins did not speak a word, only watching what the young Ichabod Crane had saw and felt.'' ''Nevin's interest was suddenly interrupted when a voice came from behind. Nevins turned back and saw a woman figure in Purgatory. That was a tall woman with pale skin and grey hair, with her eyes glowing in yellow. She was wearing a large hat.'' ''Nevins then turned to the mysterious woman, who looked at him with her eyes like leopards. She was wearing her black lipstick in a carefree attitude.'' Nevins looked at the grey-haired woman with sheer disdain, and vice versa. ''The grey-haired woman walked further with full of arrogance, and she had her face covered fully in grey shadows. Nevins stood still and shook his head.'' ''The grey-haired woman looked at him with a horrid expression of scoff on her face, but Nevins never cared about it. He then went to the table in front of him and picked up the blade. He then went to the woman before handing the knife to her.'' ''Getting the blade from Nevins, the grey-haired lady then sighed and looked at Nevins in anger. She slowly walked back before an evil smile appeared on her face.'' The woman then slowly turned back and disappeared in a mist with the mist, but not before she made her final annoucement all the while looking at Nevins' cold and harsh face. ''The mysterious woman disappared, but Nevins was not caring what the woman was planning. Maybe she planned nothing at all but her desire to join Moloch's force, but the further intention of hers is unknown. For now, Nevins had to do his own work.''
 * ???: To be honest, I don't feel like you had the blood of Van Bilj in Lord Moloch's possession, Mr. Nevins. I want to clarify this.
 * Sae_Shadow.pngNevins: What are you doing here? I did not ask for your opinion.
 * ???: Rumors said that little wench whose name was Selina Strawberry play a key role upon the death of Christine, and I am here to comfirm it, alongside the rumors of your containment of Van Bilj blood.
 * ???: I want the truth, now. Otherwise, you won't expect me to help you further after this task. Our partnership shall be over.
 * 303ByzantineParang.pngNevins: So, forcing the answer out? Is that what you did when you prosecuted your poor defendant?
 * Nevins: I have my own work to do, and I will tell you later. You came here without perimission. You should leave before Lord Moloch and those Twelve Nethers had found you, or you will die in their hands. Here, the knife you requested.
 * ShadowSae1.gif???: You...
 * Nevins: Rumor has that Michael Langdon was using the same knife in another timeline, and I hope you will use it properly to collect more souls for our Master. 
 * Atticus_Nevins-SHS3.png???: That sounds like a perfect threat. Do not expect I will bow down in fear because of this petty threat, though.
 * ???: I will call you after our task is over, and I will tell you where and when we shall meet. I will sign up to join you in secret. Don't be late.
 * Nevins: Suit yourself.

Sleepy Hollow
<p style="text-align:center;"> Sleepy Hollow  <p style="text-align:center;"> A company building <p style="text-align:center;"> 10 minutes later 

Despite the a town like Sleepy Hollow was not in that big scale like New Your City, there was still dozens of departments and office buildings of all kinds inside the town.

''Inside an office building, an ordinary office building, a black-haired white man was very anxious. He sat on his desk while peeking at a blond woman far away from him, talking to another blonde man in business suit. They were talking happily. The black-haired man, named Nelson Meyers, seemed distressed by this, somehow.''

''Just then, the elevator had arrived, and the woman and the blond man both went into the elevator. Nelson went forward and rushed towards the elevator almost immediately. He got into the elevator in time before it started to close. He stood beside the woman whom he was watching from beside.'' ''The name of that woman was Emily. She smiled to Nelson.'' Eagar to make Emily join the fun, Nelson smiled at Emily warmly, but unfortunately, she seemed indifferent on his invitation. ''Emily and Nelson both smiled, just as the elevator arrived in the ground floor. Emily promptly left the elevator with the others, but Nelson did not move at all, leaving himself alone in the elevator.''
 * Nelson: Hey, Emily?
 * Emily: Hey, there.
 * 303Nelson.pngNelson: I was thinking about going to the new... food truck today. I heard the Korean barbeque tacos are off the chain.
 * Emily: No, a bunch of us are headed over to Gardot's Bar for dinner. It's Rachel's birthday.
 * Nelson: Rachel? From HR? Well, that sounds like a way more fun time.
 * Emily: Okay, see you then.
 * Nelson: ......

<p style="text-align:center;"> In the evening  <p style="text-align:center;"> Gardot's Bar  <p style="text-align:center;"> 6 hours later 

''Inside the dinner party, almost everyone was enjoying the great music as well as dancing, being very happy in this party... well, almost everyone. Only Nelson was sitting in front of the counter and drank a bottle of beer in sheer stress.'' ''He was looking at Emily walking towards that male collegue of her. They laughed, chatted and danced. Nelson looked at them with sheer jealousy. Then, he looked away and took a next cup. He did not notice that a woman with long grey hair was sitting beside him, looking at him with a calm face.  Nelson turned his head to the woman, who was in a Gothic dress and had a thick make up. She also wore dark mauve lipstick. Her face seemed sinister. Even so, Nelson was drunk, so he could hardly sense that woman's menacing look. Fruastrated, Nelson shook his head.'' With a sigh, Nelson was about to stand up and leave the place with sheer fraustration. Nelson was about to leave, but the woman only sat in her chair, looking at his pessimistic attitude with a cold and harm face.
 * Sae_Shadow.png???: You're not gonna let that guy get in your way, are you?
 * Nelson: She's already with him.
 * Nelson: I'm gonna get out.
 * ???: Just gonna run away?

''​Nelson ignored the woman and tried to leave, but the woman held his arm and stopped him in his way. Confused, Nelson looked at that woman. To his surprise, the woman's face lit up, smiling at him.'' ​A grin appeared on the woman's face. ''Taking a chance of Nelson being drunk and thus utterly oblivious for what happened, the gray-haired woman then dumped some powder inside Nelson's cup before giving him a refill with her bottle cocktail. She then gave Nelson the cup. Oblivious for what had happened, Nelson took the cup and drank it. Somehow, he had felt better.''
 * ???: Hey. I have a better idea.
 * Nelson: Sorry, ma'am, but... but I think I won't be interested in it.
 * ???: Oh, you will. There is no room for negotiation. Have another cup, please.

''Nelson nodded. The woman then smiled and dragged Nelson towards the dancing crowd, where the neon flashing and people rejoicing.'' Feeling pleased for someone who finally agreed to dance with him, Nelson happily agreed and danced with the grey-haired lady in disco.
 * ???: Feeling better?
 * ???: Let's show everybody the  real  you.

''From a place far awayEmily and her dance mate, who was revealed to be her boyfriend, looked at them from far away, thinking that Nelson had get his happy ending and got his girl... without realizing the truth behind this circumstances.'' Suddenly, Nelson fell dizzy and his vision turned blurry, and all things he saw started to fade away as if they had dissapeared from existence.
 * 【mjt100.com】Sle-00_08_29--20170901-115346-4-.pngNelson: ......!!

''It was unknown what that woman had put in his cup, but it was apparent that she caused Nelson's current situation. It was too late for Nelson to realize that, before his vision turned white... and then stained in black.''

<p style="text-align:center;"> The next day  <p style="text-align:center;"> Nelson's house  <p style="text-align:center;"> 8 hours later 

''Nelson got up from his coma, opening his eyes and looked at the celing above him. He was now inside his house, and the light of sun had shone on his bed. Nelson had snapped out of his drunken state and felt his head hurt, trying to think over for what happened in yesterday.'' ''Nelson struggled himself to get up before he looked at the table beside his bed. In surprise, he found a blade on the table. The blade was like a crescent and was decorated in a luxurious manner.'' ''Nelson picked up the blade and looked at it, hearing some voice speaking inside his head. He soon went to work, but he took the blade with him as if someone in his head urged him to do so.''
 * Nelson: Eh?

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

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

<p style="text-align:center;"> 1 hours later 

''Nelson went to his office building not long after he left his house. Then, he went inside the elevator, where his love rival, that man named Matthew Gorman, was chatting with a collegue behind him. Gorman was wearing in suit and jeans, talking to that colleague with a smile.'' ''The two men smiled and made a fist bump. Then, the elevator stopped when Gorman's colleague was about to the place.'' The colleague then left with a smile.
 * Gorman: So, dude, last night, that blonde from Claims, Emily?
 * Colleague: Hmm?
 * Gorman: I put a few drinks in here and boom-- got her number, which means you know I'm hitting that tonight. All night.
 * 303Matt.pngColleague: Yean, you are!
 * Colleague: All right, man, see you later.
 * Gorman: Later, bro.

''Inside the corner of the elevator, Nelson heard everything. He was now wearing sunglass and had his face being utterly serious, waiting for people in the elevator left one by one while recalling the gray-haired woman's word last night. He was sure that was not a dream..'' ''Nelson then thought about the blade. He took off his sunglasses and looked at Gorman in sheer anger.''
 * ???: (flashback) Let's show everybody the  real  you.

<p style="text-align:center;"> 20 minutes later 

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

<p style="text-align:center;"> 3km east away from the office building 

''Sister Mary Eunice stood in front of the Dutch Chapel where the late Reverend Alfred Knapp lived, with Abbie on her side. The chapel was once beloned to Knapp until the Headless Horseman had chopped his head off, killing him.'' ''Sister Mary Eunice turned back and walked towards the street like a normal person going out for a walk. Abbie was following her.'' ​Sister Mary Eunice took a peek at the church again. ''Sister Mary Eunice then looked at the sun above the sky before she looked straight at the Archives not far away., and she sighed in helplessness, thinking that the body of Betsy Ross had been taken by Atticus Nevins. She also thought about that mysterious woman with blood red hood, wondering the reason behind her alliance...'' ''Abbie's words made Sister Mary Eunice left her own thoughts. She looked at Abbie with distress.'' Hearing Abbie's words, Sister Mary Eunice then frowned her brows when she thought about Betsy Ross.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: Detective Morales has left the hospital, right?
 * Sister Mary Eunice: The Horseman of Death made this place seemed cold and harsh. I need to take care of here.
 * Abbie: Really?
 * Sister Mary Eunice: Yes, we need more bases. We can't always let the church empty. Also, since I am in the town, I don't need to always live inside a mirror.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: Theforeinding a place so close to the Archive will be more convinient if you looked for my help.
 * Abbie: Sister?
 * Hungary.full.1827132.jpgSister Mary Eunice: Ms. Mills, remember the last battle we had participate against those evil that haunted this town? Turned out that the winner was the archenemy of your sheriff.
 * Abbie: Sister, I am sorry to say so, but I guess we are going to find out what Corbin was hiding before we head back to chase Nevins.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: I had once fought against Nevins alongside your sheriff. He was a dangerous man, and I guess he took the body of Betsy for some unknown purpose.
 * Abbie: Yes, I know, but I don't think it will serve a purpose. Nevins would get nothing from Betsy's body.

''​Sister Mary Eunice and Abbie walked all the way on the pavement, unknowing they have reached a block near the Police Department. Sister Mary Eunice's face was calm and patient.'' Sister Mary Eunice then stopped and turned back to take a look at the chapel.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: As we both know, Betsy Ross had the blood of Christine inside her body, and maybe that was why Nevins took Betsy's corpse. It is never hard to imagine what would Nevins plan with the body of Betsy.
 * Abraham_Van_Brunt.pngSister Mary Eunice: Besides, the Horseman...

''It was like as if she saw the bloodsheding slaughter of the Horseman came once again. August Corbin and Reverend Knapp are both its victim, and the murder incidents were manipulated by Michael Langdon, who went missing but was comfirmed to still be alive.'' ''Abbie then thought for a while. It was apparent that Abbie still do not understand how dangerous this current situation was.''
 * Sister Mary Eunice: We must race against time to fight against those evil enemies, and we don't know when will the Horseman will strike again in this town full of dark secrets.
 * Abbie_and_Icky.pngAbbie: Hmm, I see.

However, it could be justified since the Team Witness had quite a hard time dealing with the problem caused by Christine, and Abbie didn't want the things gone wild like that in their previous battle, so she prefered to take it slow. ''Abbie suddenly heard something and saw a man in black suit walking towards them with a serious face. It was Captain Frank Irving, the current sheriff in the town of Sleepy Hollow, walking towards them. Abbie took abother sip from her cup of coffee and waved at Irving.'' ''Captain Irving was familiar to the name Alfred Knapp, since he was the one who investigated the murder of the reverend despite he still had no clue on the murderer even till now. Sister Mary Eunice took the change of Abbie forging her an identity before smiling at Captain Irving.'' Irving nodded as well, and looked at Abbie with his typical face of seriousness. ''Abbie looked at Sister Mary Eunice who looked at her watch. She then turned to Abbie, winking at her as a signal. Abbie recognized this signal and nodded. Sister Mary Eunice then turned to Irving.'' ''Under Irving's permission, Sister Mary Eunice then left in a normal way. She was now presenting herself as a normal nun, and Irving was oblivious to her true identity. Even so, Sister Mary Eunice had a bad feeling that something was coming to them... once again. Irving did not look at the leaving nun. Instead, he looked at Abbie straight into her eyes.'' Abbie was feeling surprised to hear a local PD calling to the WPD Headquaters for assisting. ''Abbie listen to Irving carefully and thought about calling Crane for assistance. Recently, so many strange things occured, and Abbie had always take Ichabod Crane with her during their investigation.''
 * Abbie: Very well, Sister, but I guess we should take it slow.
 * 111Promo5.jpgIrving: Don't mean to interrupt you.
 * Abbie: Not at all. Captain Irving, this is Sister Mary Eunice, the new nun in this town who took charge in that Dutch Chapel. She is a friend to the late Reverend Alfred Knapp.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: It's nice to meet you, captain.
 * Irving: Welcome to Sleepy Hollow.
 * Irving: You have a moment for me?
 * Sister Mary Eunice: Well, captain, shall I give you a moment for you two? Have a good day investigating.
 * Abbie.pngIrving: Just got a call -- local PD's office needs assistance in a homicide.
 * Abbie: It must be quite a homicide.
 * Irving: A stabbing downtown. Apparently, not a drop of blood. I told them I'd put my best eyes on it.
 * Irving: Check in with me later.
 * Abbie: You got it.

Act 2 - Ripper from the Past
<p style="text-align:center;"> Office building  <p style="text-align:center;"> 10 minutes later 

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

''The office building that we aforementioned had been evacuated due to the crime scene, and the police officers had been prepared. A police detective named Rudy Chandler was on the case when Abbie and Ichabod approached the crime scene. Ichabod was permitted by Frank Irving to check on the scene with limited time. Rudy led the two towards the elevator, where the murder occured. Abbie immediately took out her pair of rubber gloves and looked at the corpse while wearing it.'' Inside the elevator, two other investigators were dealing with the body by checking it carefully. Abbie took a look at the police detective. Detective Chandler immediately ordered those two officers to leave so that Abbie and Ichabod could take a check on the victim's body.
 * Chandler: Found him just like this.
 * Chandler: Our guys haven't touch anything.
 * Abbie: Would you mind getting your people back, giving us some space?
 * Chandler: You got it.



''Abbie went into the elevator, while Ichabod stood outside and looked at the victim's face. He was shocked by the grosteque and disturbing scene of the victim.''

''The face of the victim was petrified as if he had been dried in the desert for months. Wrinkles appeared on his face. What was more disturbing was that he had multiple stabbed wounds on his body, and it was very obvious that this man was killed by a knife.''

''However, Ichabod's memory was suddenly being triggered once again when he saw the body. It reminded him a scene where another body in a similar face appared in a night of downpour.''



''Ichabod went into the elevator and looked closer at the body in a clearer view. Abbie was already checking the body carefully.''

''​Ichabod stared closer at the corpse... when suddenly, his eyes widened when another flashback occured. Also during a night of downpour, a young man was confronted by a man in black raincoat who stabbed the former to death.''
 * Abbie: Multiple lacerations. And based on the number and depth, significant overkill, maybe even rage.



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

''Reminded of this flashback, Ichabod could not help himself from uttering the word as he widened his eyes in shock. Abbie turned to Ichabod, realizing something was wrong with him.'' ''Ichabod immediately snapped out of his flashback and returned back to his calm state. He looked at the victim while recalling his memorys. He first looked at the wounds.'' He then thought about the killer and their nature judging by this case. He then thought about the killing method.
 * Abbie: Crane?
 * Ichabod: Deep wounds.
 * Ichabod: Bold. Never afraid of being caught.

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

''Abbie sensed Ichabod reaction to this case and found out that he had recogized the methods of murder. She knew Ichabod had a perfect skill of photographic memory and could recall everything happened on him as long as he remained conscious.'' ''Ichabod turned back to Abbie with a face of horror, a face that had only appeared when Ichabod recalled the brutal death of his mother. Therefore, it was very obvious that this case brought another dark past of Ichabod back into his mind.''
 * Abbie: You recognized the M.O.?

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Ichabod: I do. From long ago. '

''Ichabod shook his head with his expression unchanged. Abbie realized that something had gone horrible.'' ''Another flashback started to surface in Ichabod's mind. It was a man with long hair, dressed up in a black raincoat, and held a knife in his hand.'' ''Ichabod then stood up with his face pale as paper. He then spoke something which surprised Abbie.''
 * 303YoungIchabod.pngAbbie: So, some monster the Brits used against the Patroits?
 * Ichabod: No.
 * Ichabod: Lieuteanant, we are dealing with a terror from my childhood. My very first encounter with pure evil.
 * Abbie: Who are you talking about?
 * Ichabod: He has gone by many names by the centuries.
 * Ichabod: You may have know him...

<p style="text-align:center;"> '- Ichabod: ... as Jack the Ripper.'

<p style="text-align:center;"> Corbin's Archive 

<p style="text-align:center;"> 20 minutes later 

''Entering the door in a mood of distraught, Sister Mary Eunice looked at Ichabod, also with confusion in her eyes. She then went on helping Ichabod and Abbie with the files. Ichabod was looking at several documents in the enormous file collection of the late August Corbin, who owned this room and had the darkest secrets of this town hidden inside the chamber.'' ''Abbie was viewing the files and making notes on the blank pages of Corbin's unfinished notebook. She had carry on the work of Corbin ever since her previous battle against the evil Michael Langdon, who allowed the Headless Horseman to kill Corbin, and Abbie would fill the notes whenever she found new clues about many mysteries.''
 * Maryeunice.pngSister Mary Eunice: Jack the Ripper? You can't be serious, Crane.
 * Abbie: Yeah, Crane, how can Jack the Ripper have been around when you were a kid? It was almost 100 years before the Whitechapel murders.

Ichabod then picked up a book and walked passed Sister Mary Eunice, and he walked beside Abbie while explaining a disturbing past of his own. ''Due to her agile instinct, Sister Mary Eunice noticed that Ichabod's face went pale when he opened the book in his hand. It was his sign of feeling disturbed by those evil events. That event happened years after the death of Ichabod's mother, Lady Crane, who was murdered by Ichabod's possessed father under the control of an unknown demon.''
 * Ichabod: Spring, 1763, to be exact. During my sixth form at Eton College. I met with a simlar event already one year before that, but it was 1763 when I met that monster face to face... and almost eye to eye.
 * Ichabod: The innocence of my youth... came to a very sudden end...

Ichabod's Flashback
<p style="text-align:center;"> Eton College, 1763 

''During a rainy day, Ichabod was walking with his friend in a downpour. Then, after biding goodbye to his friend, Ichabod went to his domintory before the lightning flashed. In the light, Ichabod saw his worst fear - Someone was holding a blade and stood within the heavy rain.''

That classmate of Ichabod saw him as well and immediately went towards him, shouting, ​Ichabod and his classmates immediately went back to the school building and then they were surprised to see someone in front of them.
 * Classmate: The Ripper strikes again! Come on, Ichabod, shake a leg!

''The man was not Ripper, but their school headmaster. Even so, Ichabod had figured out that someone may have murdered and immediately went towards the headmaster, but the headmaster stopped him.'' Ichabod quickly went towards the place despite the headmaster's warning.
 * Headmaster: Don't. You will not wish to remember him this way.
 * Headmaster: Ichabod!

''Ichabod ignored this and then he stopped in front of a corpse. The lightning flashed once again and revealed the dead: It was Ichabod's best friend in college - Berty, who was very close to Ichabod since they were in their first term. They once planned to spent summer together at his family estate in Berkshire.''

''Ichabod felt horrid because the dead body of Berty had reminded him of the corpse he saw 1 year ago... and it was his last memory of Berty.'' ''​Berty's body was like a dry corpse, and a red rose was carved on his hand. This murder had finally made Ichabod traumatized since the previous murders targeted on people whom he did not know, but this one was different. The victim was Ichabod's friend...''
 * Ichabod: No...

''Ichabod was shivering in horror as he looked at the corpse, speechless for many seconds. Just then, a classmate of him had walked to Ichabod with tears in his eyes. He put his hand on Ichabod's shoulder with tears in his eyes. It was a young Abraham Van Brunt, another good friend of Ichabod.'' ''​Ichabod nodded and immediately went away. Soon, when he got back to his room, he saw a bearded old man in there. It was Stevens, his butler, who was waiting for him. The suitcase of Ichabod was already packed. Ichabod was surprised.'' ​Stevens walked closer to Ichabod with a serious face. ​Ichabod tried to get out but he was immediately stopped by Stevens. Ichabod stared at the old butler silently as the latter put his hand on Ichabod's shoulder. ​Ichabod nearly cried out when suddenly, he heard his father calling him. ''​Ichabod went to the window and saw his father and many others were outside the building. Ichabod sighed and knew he had to to leave. His last memory of Bert was the latter's butchered remains.''
 * 303Stephens.pngAbraham: Meet us in the common room in 15 minutes. We're going after whoever did this.
 * Ichabod: Stevens? What is all of this? Why had all of my things packed?
 * Stevens: I'm taking you back to London, Master Ichabod.
 * YoungIchabod.pngod: What? No, you can't! I need to join the others, help them find the...
 * Stevens: It's not safe for you here.
 * Stevens: My boy, try to understand. Your first duty is to assure the continuation of your family name. Your semester at Eton is over.
 * Lord Thomas Crane: Ichabod?!

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

Nowadays
''Ichabod looked at his friends with a hollowed eyes, and it was apparent that the horrid memory, being one of so many horrid part inside Ichabod's darkest past, had made him chilled to his spines. Abbie then spoke this out.'' ''Feeling deeply worried, Sister Mary Eunice heard Ichabod talking about Christine. She thought about their last battle, which was exactly the fight against Christine, which ended up her death, but Sister Mary Eunice always felt bad about this, not just because of Atticus Nevins, who had took the corpse of Betsy Ross for some unknown purpose.'' With a calm face, Sister Mary Eunice then continued to listen to what Ichabod talked about. ''While Abbie and Sister Mary were watching him, Ichabod then started to look over the files on the table before he picked several thin books up. Those books seemed quite old since their papers had turned tanned in color.  Ichabod then opened one of the books and carefully took out several old newspaper, looking at the news on them. It was a report to Whitechapel serial murders. It also included the famous drawing which described police officers looking about a suspect of the Ripper killings.'' ''With curiousity, Abbie and Sister Mary Eunice looked at the newspaper, and both of them had knew what was going on according to many files they found. The trio soon had those informations pieced together and got a horrifying result.'' ''Sister Mary Eunice frowned her eyebrows and put her hand under her chin, in a thoughtfull look. She was feeling something bad from the past was coming back into the future.'' ''Just as he finished his words, Ichabod suddenly raised his index finger as if he remembered something important. He immediately went to the bookshelf, leaving Sister Mary Eunice and Abbie looking at the files.'' Ichabod was picking up another book from the shelf. Abbie then turned to the next page of her file and looked at it very seriously. ''Ichabod took the book and looked at it continuously. Sister Mary Eunice was holding another book with laments in her eyes.''
 * [[File:Ichabod-Crane-Screencaps-ichabod-crane-sleepy-hollow-tv-series-35761154-500-281.jpg|thumb|340px]]Ichabod: I would return to Eton in the following autumn once the dust had settled. For the rest of my time there, fear was my constant companion...
 * Abbie: 'Cause the Ripper was still yet to get caught. it could have been anyone among you.
 * Lily-Rabe_595.jpgIchabod: Oh, we trusted no one. Not our supposely respected schoolmasters, not even each others. I once almost suspected Christine and Colin were the culprits since they were having infamous reputations among us. Christine also made fun of this in order to scare me. That made me disgusted.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: (think) * Those dark pasts are like haunting ghosts. Even dead men could walk again on Earth if their crimes was as postmously effective as possible. *
 * Ichabod: I became obsessed in solving the Ripper killings. It was not until this past week, due to the chance given by a hiatus thanks to Christine's death...
 * Ichabod: ... when I learned of the infamous event in Whitechapel, London, 1888...
 * JacktheRipper1888.jpgIchabod: ... that a far larger pattern took shape.
 * Abbie: Similar killings have taken place, on and off, for over 900 years, dating back as far as William the Conquerer in 1066. They're all the same killer.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: A powerful, supernatural being, spreading death and fear in its awake.
 * Abbie: It must be summoned by those evil followers of the Horseman of Death, evil companions of Christine. Maybe that Atticus Nevins?
 * Ichabod: This is no coincidence, people. The killing's exact match to what I saw as a boy.
 * Abbie: If it's him, that means that not only does he know who you are, but somehow has access to your earliest memories.
 * Ichabod: (sarcastically) How reassuring.
 * Abbie: Biggest clues that we have is how that body was exsanguinated.
 * Abbie: Something... has drained the victim of nearly half his blood.

''Ichabod and Sister Mary Eunice closed the book in the same time, looking at each other. Sister Mary Eunice then smiled at Abbie.''
 * Sister Mary Eunice: Yet we are left with very little in the way of hard evidence.
 * Abbie: In 18th Century England or 1960s Massachusetts, maybe, but today, with the latest and greatest of FBI technology, we can start by identifying weapon.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: The weapon? A good place to start.

<p style="text-align:center;"> Nelson's office building  <p style="text-align:center;"> 10 minutes later 

''It had been a while after Gorman was killed, and no one had ever suspect that Nelson was the one who did the job. Sitting in his chair behind the block of his desk, Nelson peeked at Emily not far away, seeing her crying in sheer sadness. A female colleague of hers sat beside her and comforted her.''

''Looking at her from far away, a dark expression surfaced on Nelson's face. His face turned more and more menacing while Emily cried harder and harder. She was definitely crying for Gorman. That made Nelson utterly uneasy.''

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

''Abbie was looking at the computer while talking. She was searching for old files via the filing system, while Ichabod stood beside her and looked at the computer with curiousity. Sister Mary Eunice stood on the other side, but her face remained calm while looking at the computer screen.'' ''Abbie then opened a file and revealed a three-dimensional model of the murder weaon, which was a short knife. Its blade was almost looking like a crescent.'' With surprise, Sister Mary Eunice looked at Ichabod after turning her head away from the computer. ''Ichabod looked back on the computer screen, but this time he was confused as if he had saw this thing before so long ago. Given to his photographic memory, having this kind of situation occured was highly plausible on Ichabod.'' ''Just then, Ichabod had suddenly walked forward and put his cup of tea back on the table. He was sipping a mug of tea all the while looking at the computer screen to find clues. He then sat on the chair beside Abbie.'' Abbie and Sister Mary Eunice looked at Ichabod with curiousity as he gave his explanations. ''Ichabod immediately picked up a book from the table and opened it. He recently viewed several books in Corbin's Archives in order to find more clues, and he had memorized several books pages after pages. He showed Abbie and Sister Mary Eunice a page with a illustration of the same kind of knife on the book.'' ''Ichabod then looked closer to the book after making it closer on his side. Sister Mary Eunice stood beside the Two Witnesses and listen to Ichabod quoting the words on the book very carefully.'' ''The trio then looked at each other and a shadow had appeared on the face of Sister Mary Eunice. Abbie and Ichabod had the same reaction as well, realizing what was truly behind the murder spree.''
 * 207Promo7.jpgAbbie: We need to find commonality and ID this guy before he strikes again.
 * Abbie: Using the specs from the victim's wounds, and the angles of attack, forensics was able to reconstruct the murder weapon.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: It's not exactly a straight razor.
 * 303Blade1.pngIchabod: It's somehow familiar.
 * Ichabod: First Crusades.
 * Ichabod: That... is a Byzantine parang, or long-bladed dagger.
 * Ichabod: Here. Forged by ironsmiths for Iftikhar al-Dawla, governer of Jerusalem, in 958 A.D.
 * Abbie: That is a whole lot of knife, even for Sleepy Hollow.
 * Ichabod: Legend says that those who wield the dagger... "shall shed all virtue and be wholly overcome with an unquenchable bloodlust."
 * Sister Mary Eunice: "Wholly overcome."

<p style="text-align:center;"> - Sister Mary Eunice: The knife.

'Ichabod looked at the computer screen once again and looked at the model of the knife, with a chilling feelings coming from his spines. With a sigh, Abbie then shook her head as she looked back on the computer screen. ''Ichabod had behaved less calm than Abbie despite still in control of his composure. His eyes widened in shock, however, while looking at the true form of one of the cause in some of his most traumatic past events.''
 * Sister Mary Eunice: It turns people into "Rippers".
 * Abbie: We're not searching for a monster.

<p style="text-align:center;"> - Ichabod: We're searching for a weapon.

<p style="text-align:center;"> Underground parking lot

<p style="text-align:center;"> 20 minutes later

''With a distressed face, Nelson went into the parking lot after a long time from working. He felt distressed for Emily's reaction. She was in love with Gorman, not him, no matter how hard he tried to please him. Feeling ignored and sad, Nelson was then fueled with desire to kill again, but he was overwhelmed by the guilt of committing a murder.''

''As he got into his car, Nelson started to rewind all those events happened on him, before getting the blade out of his pocket and looked at it... without even knowing someone was sitting behind him like a ghost.''
 * Shadow_Sae_sad.png???: So beautiful.

''Nelson turned back and saw that woman he met in the bar, that woman with grey hair. She was in the same outfit when she appeared in the bar, with a large grey hat. Two large yellow roses were on her had alongside four playing cards with different suits, from heart to club. She was dressed in a alightly more revealing black dress, and a tatoo of yellow roses could be seen on her right shoulder as well.''

Nelson recognized her, and now with her clear mind, he could see her much closer and clearer than when he saw her last night. ''Nelson looked at the woman and recognzied her, with horror in his eyes. The woman looked at him with a pair of pitiful eyes that glowed in yellow. Nelson had finally realized it was all because of the woman who was manipulating him, and he shivered in horror and shock.'' His hand, still holding the blade, was shivering intensely because of his fear. ''The woman still looked at Nelson. No changes had occured on her face.''
 * Nelson: You?
 * Nelson: Please...
 * Nelson: Just leave me alone.
 * ???: I know you don't mean that. Now that you had a taste... of that thing buried deep inside you.

Nelson's flashback
<p style="text-align:center;"> 10 minutes before the murder 

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

After the other people in the elevator had got out of the elevator, Matthew Gorman was about to leave as well, but Nelson suddenly bursted into outrage before stabbing his love rival on his chest multiple times, harder and harder, out of nothing but a sense of spite.

''Then, Nelson ended all of this by stabbing in the chest of Gorman, looking at his victim with a horrendous smile on his face... just as how Nelson was smiling in his car when he recalled this horrible event.''

Nowadays
''However, even if Nelson smiled after recalling the event that made him satisfied, he was still tormented and did not spoke a word. The woman looked at him holding the blade, all the while with a calm face fueled with malice.''
 * ???: Do you feel it?
 * Nelson: No.

''Nelson shook his head and was still in thoughts and hestitation. He opened the window with a face of dismay.'' ''​Nelson then tried hard to throw the blade out of the window but he can't. It somehow stuck on his palm. The grey-haired woman only watch with a smile as Nelson tried so hard to throw the blade away. Nelson then looked at his hand with a face of horror.'' ​The woman, however, seemed satisfied. ''The woman calmly watched as Nelson screamed in horror and pain. His hand was tainted black and turned metalic. The blade and melted and covered his hand with black materials. Then, it spreaded on his entire wrist.''
 * 303BecomingTheBlade.pngNelson: I don't want it anymore.
 * Nelson: Stop it... Stop it! What... What's happening to me?
 * ???: Just one more little step.

''Nelson screamed in terror while the woman looked at him with her horrifying smile. Then, her face turned more and more gruesome.'' ''The scream of Nelson had became louder and louder, but no other people had heard his scream. Beside that woman sitting behind him, Nelsom was the only one inside the place.''


 * ???: And now it begins.

Act 3 - Possession
<p style="text-align:center;"> Secret Base of the Order of Flourish

<p style="text-align:center;"> 20 minutes later

''​A green-haired young man, with a blade in his hand, was looking at a shadow figure behind the curtain. He was talking to the figure about someone named Phyllis Peach.''
 * Uguisumaru.full.2150159.pngYoung man: Lady Phyllis Peach had been missing for several hours, Light Lord. The last time I saw her, she said she was going to investigate about the agents of the Twelve Zodiac Nethers, but I suspect she was on about her own agenda.

''The figure was blurry, and then he spoke. He spoke in a strange voice, sometimes like a low-pitched female voice, and yet sometimes rather like a high-pitched male voice. The only thing was sure that he was referred as the Light Lord.'' ​''As if it was a sign of announcement, the door opened, and a tall and slender woman walked in, dressed up in red hood and stood beside the green-haired young man, revealing herself. She was none other than Selina Strawberr. She was much taller than the green-haired young man, but he seemed not to be bothered at all.''
 * Light Lord: Well, Phyllis may be suspicious, but she is rather unique, so I will like to let her do what she like. She never have any conventional thinking. She is different from you people. In my mind, she is much more creative and flexible even than Selina.
 * Selina: Please don't compare me with that woman. She is a crazy one.

''Unlike her previous appearance, Selina did not wear her eyepatch this time, and her eyes were glowing in red. Her expression seemed more menacing. The Light Lord was not bothered by this, though.'' Selina clenched her fist tight in her pockets, and her eyes were full of fire of fury. Selina showed great hatred to the person named Phyllis that the Light Lord was on about, and the green-haired man turned to Selina, speaking to her in a soften tone and a warm smile. The Light Lord himself did not try to answe Selina's wrathful doubt, as his shadow faded away from the curtain, leaving the green-haired man to speak about the situation.
 * Light Lord: Ah, Selina, we are just talking about you... and your adversary in this Order.
 * Selina: I know quite well who you are talking about, Father, and I know I will defend you if you are in any trouble, but using that wicked prosecutor Phyllis as a member in our Order? I am not fancy this idea, at all. I do not know about her past, but I assume she is now planning awful things.
 * ​???: The Light Lord used Phyllis, indeed, but he never said that he don't need someone so warm-hearted and selfless like you. There is no need to be jealous.

''A moment later, Selina seemed calmed down. Her face did not seemed that menacing, and her tones became softer as well, but still no smile appeared on her face. She spoke to the green-haired man in a calm tone.''


 * Selina: I am not meant to be jealous, Albert, but I guess there is something wrong with Phyllis, something within her was not right.
 * Albert: Like what?
 * Selina: For example, she forced Gregory to chop off your hand due to someone's incrimination. From that day on, I made a vow never to befriend her again!

''The green-haired man named Albert shrugged his shoulders and shook his head, in a troubling expression. This man named Albert Anderson, and referred by his ailas as Albert Apple, is the third in command in the Order of Flourish, and hw is also a right-hand to Selina.''

Not being a pun to his identity to Selina, Albert's own right hand was being a prosthetic one, albeit made of magic, since he lost his right hand many years ago, due to Gregory Grape, one of his colleagues, removed Albert's right hand under Phyllis' order.

''It was because Albert was framed by someone to steal a jewel from the Light Lord, and he received such a wrongful punishment, even Selina came to defend him. Albert was later traumatized by the event, which later made him depressed - yet he often hid his depression with humorous facade.'' ''Selina clenched her arm with her gloved left hand and bit her lips with a sigh. She closed her eyes and phewed in a very troubling face. The Feast of Apollo was an attempt to bring back Lady Hestia Hawthorn, the late adoptive daughter of the Light Lord who was murdered by someone else, using an artifact named the Stone of Wisdom.''
 * Uguisumaru.full.1980894.jpgAlbert: I am fine, but I will come over with it. This woman was dangerous, indeed, but that was happening after the Feast of Apollo... and the murder of Lady Hestia Hawthorn before that. That was the true reason that drove everything wrong... including our own mind. Do you have a feeling that we are different from before?

''The Feast failed, however, and the consequence were horrendous. Many citizens volunteered to witness and support the Feast became people with potential magician abilities, while many members of the Order (apart from a few special cases) were affected by its side effect, either being driven to their respective dark side or had their wicked personality turned outright and worsen.''
 * Selina: Maybe, but the change in the Order was the consequence of the failed Feast. Nevertheless, I think another Feast of Apollo will make things right, since it will be accompanied by my Dawn's Early Light which will be put into use and clease the townspeople from depression.

''​Albert put his hand on his chin, thinking about the last Feast of Apollow held by the mysterious Light Lord. Since there was no one else beside them, the duo can talk about the Feast of Apollo for now.'' ''​However, unlike Albert, Selina soon smiled in a confident manner. Albert was talking about troubling facts, but Selina seemed confident to remedy all of those trials and tribulations.'' The words of Selina that put trust on Ichabod and Abbie, the Two Witness, made Albert confused, but he soon widened his eyes and nodded. ''​Selina sighed and smiled. She liked Ichabod's own personality and her assistance to him was sincere and heartfelt, but Ichabod did not know that Selina wanted him to serve a greater purpose - make Sleepy Hollow back to its normal state.'' ''Selina was one of the people who had their dark side take over her due to the Feast of Apollo, an event that changed everything in Sleepy Hollow, but Selina did not trying to succubb to her dark side. She tried to revert anything back to normal in her own way, including her dark personality, and she was partly awared that some of her colleagues were on their wrong way.​''
 * Albert: Hmm, the last Feast caused so much people becoming enhanced with magical abilities - people we know as Shines - and also made benefits for Moloch's Twelve Nethers and their puppets, including Hubert Zodiak, Crow Faux and another mysterious man know as the Wicker Wiseman.
 * Selina: However, the Order will go on its right way as it always should be, and I believe the Team Witness will help us in the second Feast of Apollo, an act that will help the Order and the town of Sleepy Hollow to go on a right way. That shall be the time we redeem ourselves and be happy once again.
 * Albert: You want to help the Two Witnesses so that they can become the Light Lord's tool to open the next Feast of Apollo?
 * The_Sabbath_begins.jpgSelina: Tools? Well, I see them as true friends, not tools, but I will keep my eyes on them. I think they will agree with the Light Lord's plan... to make Sleepy Hollow peaceful again.



''However, Selina herself did not know that the way what she chose - organizing the second Feast of Apollo - was also a wrong way. The reason of this would be explained later.'' ''Selina then turned back and started to walk out of the door. Her face soon turned darker, revealing her inner dark side that was currently taking control of her mind.'' Feeling panicked by her sudden personality switch, Selina fled out of the door with a greyish face, leaving Albert alone in the room.
 * Selina: The Witnesses are the only hope to defeat Moloch and save the town of Sleepy Hollow. I will do anything... ANYTHING to wipe demonic influence that plagued the town since the birth of our foundation. Now, the Mayor wanted me to investigate the entire case, but I did it not for him and not for my salary. It was for all of us, for our safety. Therefore, please never judge me like that.
 * Selina: However, even if the Witness turned against the Light Lord, I will not kill them for not assisting the second Feast of Apollo, either. Because at that time, I will capture them and make them assist us... Oh, my, what am I saying?

<p style="text-align:center;"> - Albert: Now who is the crazy one?

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

<p style="text-align:center;"> On the street 

<p style="text-align:center;"> Outside Westchester Police Department 

''Abbie had just reported her investigation as realistic as she could to Captain Frank Irving, and she went out of Irving's office. She walked out of the police prestinct and walked towards the Archives.'' ''Suddenly, Abbie was approached by Detective Luke Morales who had just recovered from his previous problems and walked towards Abbie. Abbie stopped and was delighted to see Luke. She immediately made her answer to him about the recent murder he was on about.'' Luke put his hand on his chin. Abbie nodded as Luke prepared to leave. ''Abbie was surprised when she heard Luke mentioned the word "dinner". Luke was surprised as well when he prepared himself to leave the area, and he walked back to Abbie.'' ''After that, Luke smiled at Abbie, and Abbie knew what he meant. Recently, due to the actions of the late Christine which terrorized the town, there was so much things happened on her and Luke, and Luke was desperate wanting to know the entire truth.'' Abbie look aside and thought for three seconds before making up her mind. ​Satisfied, Luke nodded in agreement. ''Abbie smiled as she watched Luke left. Abbie then stood at her own position and fell into deep thoughts.''
 * Luke: There you are, Abs. How was that murder occurred?
 * Abbie_in_the_Necromancer.pngAbbie: I'm just coming to see you with your update. Based on what I'm sensing so far, we're dealing with a ritualistic killing. The suspect is targeting specific victims. I'm still working out the pattern. I would like to stay on it for now, but that is Irving's call.
 * Luke: I advice you to stay on it. Run it through VICAP. Just download me on it later.
 * Abbie: Hmm...
 * Luke: Say over dinner?
 * Abbie: Dinner?
 * 105Luke.png: You know, the meal at the end of day.
 * Abbie: Okay...
 * Luke: No big deal. I just think it'd be a good idea if we clear the air about a few things.
 * Luke: Tonight?
 * Abbie: Tonight works.
 * Luke: Good. Then, carry on, Lt. Mills.
 * Abbie: Bye, Det. Morales.

<p style="text-align:center;"> Corbin's Archives 

''Ichabod searched in the files of the late Sheriff Corbin to look through the case concerned the horrid event that he met when he was younger. He found three books from the Archives, and then he took the book and walked towards his chair. He took the trechcoat of his on the chair, wore it and went to the door with the books.''
 * 64009383_p0.pngod: That one... That... That one...

''Suddenly, when he opened the door, he knocked himself into a woman who was as tall as him. The woman let out an "Aw" and avoid hitting Ichabod, who looked at her with his eyes widened.''

''The woman was wearing red hood and coat, with a basket on her elbow, similar to the Little Red Riding Hood in Grimm Brothers' Tales. She let out an endearing grin to Ichabod due to embarrasement.'' ''Ichabod immediately recogized the woman. It was Selina, whom he just met a few days ago. Selina lowed down her head and laughed a bit joyfully. Ichabod immediately helped her with the basket. He took the basket from Selina politely and placed it on the table, while feeling surprised for her sudden arrival.'' ''Ichabod was about to finish, but he immediately widened his gaze in shock and had to sigh in dissapointment. Selina looked at Ichabod with her face pale as paper.'' ​Selina immediately opened her palms and waved them in a rapid speed. ''Selina was telling the truth. She did met Abbie before and they talked about Ichabod. Ichabod heard this and was confused. Even so, he was relieved since even the police captain here held interest on what he had experienced, as well as what was happening inside the town. Selina then thought for a moment before she spoke something which might make Ichabod convinced.'' Ichabod felt appreciated with Selina's words, but he still look at her in a serious face. ''Selina was right. The aforementioned Albert Apple, known as his true name as Albert Anderson in public, was a member of senate subcomittee on immigration in public's eyes. It was an advantage for Ichabod who was not American himself and had to undergo a false identity as an immigrate. Finally, Ichabod was delighted and accepted the offer.'' ''Feeling being needed, Selina chuckled in delight and smiled at Ichabod. One of her happiest moments was none other than the moment when her offering was accepted. She then gave Ichabod her name card.'' ''Ichabod was glad to hear that and nodded. He recently had been learning how to use telephone and cell phone, and he thought at least calling someone or receiving a call via telephone would no longer be a problem for him.''
 * Selina: Mr. Crane.
 * Ichabod: Ms. Sarandon?
 * Ichabod: Uh, this is a surprise. What brings you to...
 * Ichabod: Oh, no, no, don't tell me... The so-called police department and your mayor in this town still place me under observation? This will not stand.
 * [[File:Ichabod-Crane-Screencaps-ichabod-crane-sleepy-hollow-tv-series-35761154-500-281.jpg|thumb|340px]]Selina: Oh, no, no, it's not about that. It's Lt. Mills. She told me about your current situation, and I am hoping to take care of you until you get free. Captain Irving wants more informations about the secrets in the town. I alone cannot explain, and only you can convince Irving by yourself, Mr. Crane.
 * 217Katrina.pngSelina: I know you have a wife, Mr. Crane. I can help you find her, and you will make Irving to join us. Together, we can get Sleepy Hollow away from the darkness that haunts it since so many years ago. It was all because of a horrid murder... and a subsquent ritual which changed everything. Help us and we will make things right.
 * Uguisumaru.full.1988583.jpgSelina: Look, I'm not a lawyer, but if you'll let me, I'd like to help you be one of many inside this town, like a family to us.
 * Ichabod: Ms. Sarandon, that is most kind of you, but I could not possibly impose on your generousity.
 * Selina: I have a friend named Albert who is a member of senate subcomittee on immigration.
 * Ichabod: I would be honored to accept your assistance.
 * Selina: Here is my name card. When I had some news to tell you, I'll call you?
 * Washington_Crossing_the_Delaware_by_Emanuel_Leutze,_MMA-NYC,_1851.jpgIchabod: I look forward to it.

''Selina smiled and nodded before she promptly went away. Ichabod felt that the woman who was talking to him was far from being simple. No matter what her purpose was, she really needed his assistance and vice versa.''

''Ichabod then took his books and looked at the painting's copy above his head, showing the scene of Washington crossing Delaware. Ichabod sighed and made a joke.'' Ichabod then swiftly went out of the room with his books and his trechcoat.
 * Ichabod: Oh, please... As if Adams would have done any different.

<p style="text-align:center;"> Nelson's room 

''Inside the apartment where Nelson lived, the owner of the room looked out of the window with his eyes as cold as ice. The knife, which had blended on his wrist, had merged with him and took over his soul. The grey-haired woman walked towards him with a cold and yet gleeful smile.'' ''​The woman walked closer and closer to Nelson at the balcony. She was now wearing her same black attire and looked at her new puppet Nelson with a cold smile. She then put Nelson inside a black jacket to make his appearance more sinister.'' The woman then took a look on several 130-year-old newspaper that detailed the killing spree in the streets of Whitechapel, most notably the brutal Jack the Ripper. The woman then turned more serious, in her face and in the way she talked. The woman then dissapeared in a puff mist, leaving Nevins alone in his room, looking at the blade which had merged with him.
 * ???: This was not a random choice. The knife senses only the deepest pain, seeks it out, and channels it, like a forge, out of which you emerge reborn, as you were meant to be.
 * 418px-FromHellLetter.jpg???: Oh, the moment I saw... your wounded and fragile heart, I knew... that you could become that which everyone fears. The unseen is rising up amongst us... slowly destroying the illusion of sactuary from darkness. And now that you've tasted it -- an intoxicating feeling. You can join an ancient and grand history.
 * ???: You can stand by my side... no, by  our side, and be revered by all... but only if you abandon all hestitation, mercy and doubt.
 * ???: The Two Witnesses will seek to stop you. Bury your new power deep into their hearts and bring me back what " he who is yet to come " desires. Destiny favors the strong and destroys the weak.

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

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

''Ichabod and Abbie were accompanying together and walked upstairs. They had just found out that Nelson's possible involvement with the killing and came to apprehend him.'' Ichabod's eyebrowes frowned and he sensed something horrid hidden beneath it. ''Abbie opened a door in front of her and thought about Michael Langdon, the one behind Nevins' action of taking away Betsy's corpse for unknown purpose, but she did not know where Michael was or what he was planning. Abbie was very worried.'' ​At this point, they had reached the door of Nelson Meyers' apartment. ''Suddenly, Ichabod felt some slash occured on the wooden door. A blade came out and slashed the door, scarring it. Ichabod immediately dodged it while Abbie stumbled back. She immediately kicked the door open and pointed her gun at Nelson.''
 * Avenger.(Edmond.Dantès).full.2070572.jpgIchabod: You're certain that this Nelson Meyers is the man we seek?
 * Abbie: Profile points to a white male, mid-20s, loner type, someone who had access to the building that the victim was killed in. And Nelson is the only one who didn't show up for work today.
 * Ichabod: How does turning this man into a murderer further Michael's agenda?
 * 【mjt100.com】Sle-00_24_33--20170907-213607-1-.pngAbbie: Everything he's thrown at us has some kind of personal connection. He knows our past, even our secrets. There's definitely a pattern, just haven't figure it out yet.
 * Ichabod: Is it too much to ask that our latest case be easier than the previous one?

''Abbie walked into the room and pointed her gun at Nelson while approaching him, followed by Ichabod. Nelson stood in front of them with a dark and gloomy face, looking himself in the mirror. He soon turned back and look at Ichabod and Abbie.'' ''​Abbie was shocked when she saw the blade had blended itself with Nelson's wrist. Ichabod had the same expression as well.'' ''Nelson then raised his blade and looked at Ichabod and Abbie. His eyes was full of nothing but coldness and malice. Ichabod and Abbie did not go further.'' ''Being completely possessed by the weapon, Nelson was filled with nothing but his own delusions. He stared at Ichabod with some kind of expression as if he was looking at a retarded man with disdain.'' ''Nelson let out a devious chuckle and walked towards his dining table. Ichabod and Abbie then slowly approached him slowly and carefully, while Nelson was still speaking like insane.'' ''Infuriated, Nelson cut a chair in half with the blade, and his mind was fell under the possession of the blade and, subsquently, the corruptive power of Moloch. He turned back and faced the Two Witnesses under an expression that was utterly terrifying. Abbie still pointed at her gun at Nelson.'' ''Nelson did not respond. He only look at Abbie and prepared to attack her.'' Abbie put her bullet inside her magazine. ''Nelson immediately tried to attack Abbie, but the latter fired three shots at him. Each shot Nelson got made him stuble back one step after another, until he broke the window and dropped on a car near the pavement, being covered in shattered glass. Feeling panicked, Abbie approached the balcony and saw Nelson lying, apparently dead.'' ''Ichabod immediately followed Abbie and saw the scene as well. However, turned out Nelson never died. After more than ten seconds of comatose, he opened his eyes with cold and malicious expression.''
 * Abbie: Nelson?
 * Nelson: You are the Two Witnesses?
 * 303Nelson1.pngAbbie: I would tell you to drop the weapon, but I see that's not really an option.
 * Ichabod: My God...
 * Nelson: Like it?
 * Ichabod: That blade is manipulating you, Mr. Meyers. Anything you may have done under its influence can end here. Let us help you.
 * Nelson: Help me?
 * Nelson: Go back to the guy I was before? Invisible? A JOKE!?
 * Abbie: Nelson, you have to calm down.
 * Abbie: This is your last chance.
 * 303DeadCar.pngAbbie: I don't want to hurt you.
 * Nelson: But I want to hurt you!
 * Abbie: Damn.
 * Abbie: Oh, damn!

''Abbie and Ichabod beside her were both shocked. Nelson looked at his body with bullet holes, but somehow they dissapeared, and he did not even bleed.''

''With a malicious chuckle and grin, Nelson came down from the car and looked up at the horrfied two Witnesses, gloating. His eyes turned red, hinting that he fell under demonic possession completely. With his evil grin, Nelson went away.''

In this match, Moloch had won.

Purgatory
<p style="text-align:center;"> Base of Zodiac Demons 

<p style="text-align:center;"> Hall of Nethers 

A lesser demon standing at the door of an enormous hall, greeting the return of Crow Faux, one of the main leaders of the Zodiac Demon Army under the command of Twelve Nethers, who are high-classed Zodiac Demons working secretly for Moloch and overlook their human puppets.
 * Unidentified.full.1966050.jpgLesser Demon: Lord Wiseman is not here yet, Lord Crow Faux. Neither is Mr. Hubert.
 * Crow: Never mind. I want to talk to that lady... I would like to have a talk with Nether Kaysie the Demon Princess.

''Being a handsome young man with an appearance of thirties, Crow Faux is a tall and pale man with mostly black hair. Some of his hair were white as silver. He was wearing black coat that was covered in black feathers, and his face was cold as stone.''

''Among all of his physicall appearance, his eyes were the most distinguish feature on his face. Under this occasion where he could not calm himself, Crow's eyes were black, but its pupil occationally flashed white light.'' ''The Hexenmeister Community had a strange new leader very recently, not long before the assault against Arendelle committed by Blackheart. Crow Faux had been overlooking the mysterious leader while lurking inside the Hexenmeister Community.''
 * Ezio.Auditore.Da.Firenze.full.833527.jpg: Lord Wiseman had letters from Sleepy Hollow. He said he had something to inform the Nethers ... about the Leader of Hexenmeister Community.

In other words, ' Crow is exactly the mysterious spy that hid himself amonst the HC Council. ' The lesser zodiac demon nodded his head and opened the door for Crow. As the door opened, Crow swiftly walked into the hall and walked all the way towards the centre.
 * Crow: Is Nether Kaysie at the base?
 * Zodiac Demon: Yes, she is.



''There were twelve seats at the middle of the hall, surrounding a round table. A woman with dark hair was sitting on one of the chairs. The other eleven chairs were empty due to various reasons.'' ''The lesser demon walked to Kaysie and stood beside her seat. Kaysie then turned her Seat of Virgo before looking at the face of Crow with a devious smile.''
 * Lesser demon: My lady, Lord Crow asks if he can see you at this moment. He has important informations to tell.



''Nether Kaysie Virgo, the only daughter of Moloch was wearing black nightgown. She was holding a large golden sting in her left hand. It was her poisonous stings.'' Letting out a dark chuckle, Kaysie smiled in a devious manner, which made Crow a little bit nervous. ''With a sigh, Crow regained his composure and walked closer to the Demon Princess with a serious face. Kaysie widened her eyes with curiousity as if she already figured out what Crow was about to say.'' ''Kaysie's word had stalled the pace of Crow. Hearing this with pure shock, Crow immediately stopped walking. He then bit his lips and nodded. He knew what Kaysie could capable of, and he was always scared of it.''
 * Kaysie: Ufufufufu...
 * Kaysie: Well, well, well, it looks like our spy in the Hexenmeisters returns much faster than  our two spies in the Order of Flourish . So, what's the matter, Crow?
 * Kaysie: You want to tell me about the new leader of Hexenmeister Community, am I right?



Being the only female member of the Twelve Nethers of Zodiac Demons, Kaysie has an ability to look through some part of the future, though she could only see the results of some actions, and yet she could not figure the out the complete progress. ''Crow nodded in sheer fraustration. He then opened his palm before summoning a red crystal. The crystal itself floated inside his palm. He spoke out the words slowly and clearly.'' ​Kaysie nodded when Crow continued to make his own report, listening to him patiently. ''​Kaysie frowned her eyebrows as Crow continued. It was apparent that she was distraught by the coming situation.'' ''After he finished his words, Crow then pointed at the red glowing crystal inside his hand. Inside his hand, lied one of the Crystals of Nethers. The Crystals of Nethers are 12 power crystals of the Twelve Nethers that belonged to each of the Twelve Nethers.''
 * Crow: Yes, milady.
 * Crow: Emma Swan discovered the existence of the spy inside them, although they never had made it to discover my identity. That leader began to suspect that there was a spy and tried to find and eliminate the spy, who is me.
 * Crow: However, the point is, there seems to be a conflict between Ms. Swan and the enigmatic leader, and the latter called the Hexenmeister back to stop an assault from Mephisto. Those Hexenmeisters are suppose to fight against Christine Van Bilj.
 * Crow: My lady, our plan faces a sudden stall, and I guess it is the time for me to use the crystal of Nether Gleodon.



''Kaysie was shocked to hear Crow spoke the words, since it comfirmed her greatest fear. She had such a feeling once she saw Crow revealed the power crystal on his palm.''
 * Kaysie: The Crystal of Gleodon...

Someone who was chosen by a Nether to become a host could use the crystal to fuse with the said Nether, but the host must be strong enough to fuse with the Nether, otherwise they would have their soul devoured and the Nether controlling them would go berserk, losing control on their power completely.

''In Crow's case, he had the Crystal of Gleodon. Gleodon, also known as Gleodon Aquarius, is the wrathful Nether of Aquarius with a violent temper. Crow was granted the Crystal of Gleodon by Zodiac Demons, but he was yet to fuse himself with it.'' ''​Kaysie shook her head with a worried face. She had fake a smile in order to hide her distraught. It was no joke when Crow claimed he would use the Crystal of Gleodon.'' Looking at Crow's face which started to turn more relived due to the demon lady's assuring, ​Kaysie paused, but soon she continued. With an honest face, Kaysie then stood up from her chair and walked towards Crow in a smiling face, talking in a calm and polite manner. ''Being one of the archenemies of the Hexenmeisters, the Wild Card was an crime organization led by Hubert Zodiak and was loyal to Moloch, being firstly mentioned in LOTM: Crossover - The Corbin Files - Chapitre Dix. The Hexenmeisters thought that Hubert founded the organization and was after the legendary Shard of Anubis.''
 * D5451556798.jpgKaysie: I try not. That would be too dangerous. I need you as a human, not as a cannon fodder.
 * Kaysie: The Crystals are last resorts. Unlike my brothers, I am not going to give my power crystal to anyone, not now. I know how dangerous it could be. Besides, those stupid and worthless Hexenmeisters just suspected you, but I don't think they will discover you.
 * Kaysie: You spied into those sections of the Hexenmeister Community as a mere soldier. That false identity makes perfect undercover for you to go on with your plan without being discovered. Those fools could only chase a rumor.
 * Kaysie: Crow, you are the best member of the Wild Card, even better than your leader and adoptive father, Hubert Zodiac. I know why you hate him. He is just a weak and worthless puppet, but you are not, Crow. You are an elite, and I can see why my father trusts you so much.

''They were wrong, dead wrong, about the Wild Card. It was, in fact, founded by  Kaysie Virgo herself, with Hubert Zodiak as its puppet. Hubert was not the real leader at all. As for Crow Faux, he was once the right hand of Hubert as well as being the latter's adoptive son, but Crow later became the most notable and powerful of the Wild Card agents. He even founded another sub-faction to serve the Zodiac Demons.''

''Hearing Kaysie's words, Crow calmed himself down. His eyes turned into more humane like eyes with red pupils. Crow then make his crystal dissappeared from his hand, but not before turning it in a shape of heart.'' ''Crow joked about his reckless move, and Kaysie was not bothered by it at all. Despite being the daughter of Moloch, Kaysie could be very friendly to her allies and would not always punish them for their failure or bad ideas.'' ''Hearing the name Lord Helio, Crow immediately looked down on the ground with a sigh. Kaysie's smile faded away when she saw Crow behaved like this.'' Crow sighed and nodded in sadness.
 * Crow: Sorry, My Lady, I just want to play some magic tricks.
 * Kaysie: By the way, I heard from our spy in Order of Flourish that Selina Strawberry had made her move as well. The Light Lord, also known as Lord Helio, was behind her actions.
 * Kaysie: You seemed to know him, Crow.
 * Crow: Yes, I know him. I know him well.

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Crow: It was I who made him into the Light Lord, albeit indirectly. '

However, Crow then returned back to his calm and cold personality after this brief sadness. ''Kaysie then looked at Crow with a poker face. She immediately corrected him in something he had just mistaken in his words.''
 * Crow: Did the spy in the OF dig out the info from Nevins? How did he do this? 
 * Kaysie: Wait a minute, Crow.

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Kaysie: That spy is a "she". '

''Crow heard this and lowered his head, and then a face started to surface inside his head. It was a woman with long grey hair, yellow eyes and a pair of lips as black as coal. Something which he had been suspecting had came true.'' ''Crow then took a deep breath and calmed himself down once again. He then narrowed his eyes and looked at Kaysie.'' ''Crow did not continue his words after seeing Kaysie's face. The face of Kaysie turned more malicious as she looked at Crow face to face. Her smile turned more malicious as well.'' While talking, ​Kaysie then turned back and sat back on the Seat of Virgo, with her face turned back to seriousness once again. ''Crow was still suspicious on that gray-haired woman, even with Kaysie's assuring that the woman was possessed by a Zodiac Demon. Crow even had a feeling that it was not the Zodiac Demon who was controlling the woman. Instead, he felt that the gray-haired woman was in fact controlling the demon inside her with her free will. However, he had no time to speak out his own opinion. The time grew short.''
 * Crow: No way... It is really her...
 * Crow: I don't trust her, My Lady, and I don't trust that mysterious Wiseman either. I do not know what ever that man named Wiseman is, despite  I have a feelings of meeting him before. I am not sure... 
 * 54857438_p0_master1200.jpge: Sorry, Crow, but this is none of your business. That spy had turned into the host of a Zodiac Demon, and I guess she will have no free will to fight against us any longer.
 * Kaysie: Your own buisness is to drive more people into despair and force them into Zodiac Demons, specifically those who had magic abilities after the Feast of Apollo, that event which had made almost everything in the town different from before.

With no space for him to start an objection, Crow then nodded and bowed in front of Kaysie in a gracious manner, much to Kaysie's satisfaction.

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Crow: Yes, my Lady. '

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

<p style="text-align:center;"> Abbie's Offce  <p style="text-align:center;"> 20 minutes later 

''Failing to capture Nelson after he went on to escape, Ichabod and Abbie returned back to the Archives with dismay. They talked all the way about the methods to resolve this problem.'' Ichabod and Abbie went into the office, and Ichabod immediately closed the office door in order to avoid people from hearing what they were saying. ''Abbie shrugged her shoulders and opened the computer right in front of her. Just as the Witnesses were discussing, Sister Mary Eunice had surfaced herself from the mirror and stood beside Abbie.'' ''Ichabod then walked to the computer screen with curiousity. He stood on the other side Abbie, who then looked closer on the screen as she started to dig into more files that Corbin had left. She started to read Corbin's introduction of the Ripper's killing and Byzantine Parang on screen.'' Abbie then noticed the phrase " on and off " and was confused by this. Ichabod and Sister Mary Eunice stared on the screen with thoughtful looks. Ichabod then realized something and widened his eyes in surprise.
 * Ichabod: Whlist your federal bureau is well-equipped to aid us in tracking Mr. Meyers...
 * Ichabod: ... once captured, we have no idea how to undo the effects of that blade.
 * Abbie: Yeah, I had the same thought, so... I went back to this. Out of unknown reason, Corbin had the same theory as ours and it was proven till this day.
 * The_Corbin_Files.pngAbbie: "The whole timeline for the Ripper killing throughout history. Patterns is the same: The knife finds its way into the hands of some innoncent person, it messes with their mind, and turns them into brutal killers. It happens on and off for over 900 years."
 * Abbie: How does the off part happen?
 * Sister Mary Eunice: The killings simply end, but in each case the killer is never caught.

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Ichabod: Something stops them. '

Then, Ichabod immediately hunched himself and looked at the screen. ''Hearing this, Abbie immediately went on searching. She found and access the files, showing several portraits of the Ripper's suspects and files on the cases.'' ''With Ichabod's help, Abbie found the list of people from Eton and Berkshire who passed away in 1763. She immediately accessed the file and looked at the picture of the list. The cases of murder had marked blue on the list.'' ''Sister Mary Eunice then closed her eyes and sighed in sadness. That was exactly the full name of Ichabod's late friend, Bert, who became a victim. Abbie had the same sad feelings as well.'' ''Abbie then looked further on the files. Its title spoke, "Eton Meadows - Record of Burial", date 1763.'' ''Suddenly, Ichabod gasped when he heard the phrase "last murder". After that, Ichabod slowly stood straight, and he immediately realized something was hidden in this. He figured it out immediately.''
 * Ichabod: Have you access to parish records in England in the mid-1700s?  Specifically Eton and Berkshire. 
 * Abbie: BMD index -- birth, marriages, death -- 1750s onward.
 * Ichabod: Here, 1763.
 * Ichabod: Five murders documented over six fortnights.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: Including Bertram Willoughby, age 14.
 * 【mjt100.com】Sle-00_29_14--20170916-181344-1-.pngAbbie: Your friend.
 * Abbie: No evidence of the killer was ever found. The last murder was June of that year.
 * Ichabod: The last  murder ?

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Ichabod: Not the last DEATH. '

''Abbie and Sister Mary Eunice heard this and looked at Ichabod with surprise. Ichabod did not notice them. He then pointed at the computer screen.'' The three then took a glance at the reason of death on the list, and seeing the reason of the 29 deaths had shocked all three of them.
 * Ichabod: Look -- burial record show that 29 souls were lost spring and summer, all taken by...

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Sister Mary Eunice: Yellow fever. '

''With a shocked face, Sister Mary Eunice then looked closer and gave out an even shocking revealing. Abbie then looked closer at the identity of the infection victims.'' ''Ichabod suddenly remembered the scene when he saw his butler inside the domintory, wanting him to get back to his home in London. He was struck by shock all of a sudden.'' ''Ichabod shook his head. He was still yet to overcome from the shock.'' Abbie then went on to look for more clues. ''Ichabod suddenly realized the reason behind this fact. All of the killings ended after a disease outbreak had only one reason in this murder spree.''
 * Abbie: All of them students at Eton College.
 * 303Stephens.pngIchabod: I was not summoned home because of the Ripper killings. It was protect me from infection.
 * Abbie: You have no idea about the outbreak?
 * Ichabod: No, none of us did. The Crown likely hid the truth to avoid panic. My father must have learned of it by his connections in parliament and sent Stevens to retrieve me.
 * Abbie: It all tracks. The every killings spree coincides with an outbreak of disease. Yellow fever, cholera, malaria, Spanish flu...

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Ichabod: Exsanguinated bodies. '

''It was all connected to the killing method. Ichabod then realized the reason behind all of this. He turned back and looked at Abbie and Sister Mary Eunice.'' Abbie then bit her lips and had an idea. Ichabod and Sister Mary Eunice both nodded in approvement.
 * Ichabod: The knife gains power by draining the blood of its victims.
 * Abbie: And when it drains someone with a disease...
 * Sister Mary Eunice: ... its food source is tarnished. It cannot survive.
 * Abbie: We need blood.

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Sister Mary Eunice: Now, it is time for you two to move again. This killing story ends tonight. '

<p style="text-align:center;"> Police Department  <p style="text-align:center;"> Forensic office  <p style="text-align:center;"> 2 minutes later 

''The truth had been revealed and the remedy was in preperations. Ichabod and Abbie then prepared to set out their new moves. Since the threat for now was not as wide or as menacing as what Christine Van Bilj had brought, Ichabod and Abbie can take actions without the help from either Sister Mary Eunice or Hexenmeister Community members.'' ''Just as Abbie and Ichabod passed by the forensic office, a woman with white uniform had carried a report to Abbie. It was a forensic in the police office.'' ''Abbie heard this and went to the office, following the woman. Ichabod followed behind Abbie as well. They went towards a computer screen. The forensic showed them what she had found from the suspect.'' ''Abbie and Ichabod went to look at the screen. There was a young blond woman on the photo. Immediately, Abbie recognized the young woman.''
 * Forensic: Lt. Mills?
 * Forensic: This is forensics on Nelson Meyer's computer. I managed to access the encrypted files on his hard drive.
 * Abbie: I recognize her from the personnel files.

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Abbie: Emily Kates. She worked on the same floor as Meyers. '

''Ichabod looked at the photo before he looked aside. His tone was filled with disgust. Abbie then put her hand on her chin. Something started to go wrong...''
 * Ichabod: Obviously the object of his twisted affection.

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Abbie: She is also his next victim. We need to move. '

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

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

<p style="text-align:center;"> Underground parking lot

''Feeling distressed over the death of her boyfriend even after so many times, Emily walked into the parking lot with a gloomy face. She immediately took her handbag and looked for her cellphone, unawared that the danger was lurking not far away.''

''Hiding beside a pillar, the possessed Nelson stood still and watched as Emily passed by him. She never noticed him, but he knew where she was heading. What was more, Nelson and Emily was not the only people in the parking lot this night.''



The gray-haired woman with a large hat stood behind Nelson with a cold and malicious look. ''The gray-haired woman disappeared with a cold grin. Driven by the lust for revenge, Nelson let out a smile smiled deviously towards Emily who passed by him. His eyes started to glowing red light in an inhumane menance.''
 * ???: She is all yours, Mr. Meyers. You'll have your revenge.

''Being unoticed to the upcoming danger, Emily still walked towards her car wthout stopping. However, Emily had stopped walking when a police car had arrived and stopped in her way.'' ''The driver of the car was none other than Police Detective Rudy Chandler. He stopped in front of Emily and showed her his working liscence.'' Emily looked at him with utter confusion.
 * Chandler: Ms. Kates, we need you to come with us.

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

<p style="text-align:center;"> On the streets 

<p style="text-align:center;"> Abbie's car 

''​Meanwhile, Abbie drove her car on the streets and was accompanied by Ichabod. Ichabod was looking at his new cell phone which he had yet to master it.''

''Ever since the previous defeat of Michael Langdon, Abbie have been instructing Ichabod how to use a cell phone. Ichabod had yet to master it since he only use a cell phone in less than a week. However, Ichabod could still know how to read a message. Now, he had received a message from Police Detective Rudy Chandler.'' ''Ichabod was still learning how to type a message via cell phone, and typing too much will make him unnerved. In spite of this, Ichabod managed to sent the message to Det. Chandler successfully.'' ''After putting his cell phone back to his pocket, Ichabod took two small syringes out from his pocket. The syringes were filled in dark red blood... obviously tainted by some kind of disease.'' Ichabod then looked aside and lifted a large musket beside him. ''While he was talking, Ichabod filled one of the syringes into the musket. Those syringes were in size of bullets, and could be easily loaded.'' ''Ichabod then prepared for the gun and looked ahead. Abbie remained silent. Ichabod looked at Abbie and let out a sigh. His face turned more serious, having a bit of sadness.'' Ichabod then clenched his fist and narrowed his eyes. Abbie looked at Ichabod and sighed as well, but then she immediately changed the topic. Ichabod checked his phone again. Ichabod made a trying to call Detective Chandler, and then he looked at the screen with his face serious after dialing those numbers one by one.
 * Ichabod: Message from Detective Chandler. As requested, Ms. Kates is safely under his protection.
 * Abbie: Good. Text him back, and ask him if there's any sign of trouble. We need to know where Nelson is. We start by eliminating the places he isn't.
 * Ichabod: Sending.
 * Ichabod: As we have a limited supply of tainted blood, I have but two chances to stop the Ripper.
 * Ichabod: Assuming if I have time to reload.
 * Abbie: I thought you were supposed to be hot stuff with a musket.
 * Ichabod: I was always a little better with a flintlock pistol than a Brown Bess.
 * IMG_7549.pngIchabod: But I promise you... I shall not miss.
 * Ichabod: It would seem you and I have even more in common, lieutenant. We both witnessed evil at a young age. Even as a boy, I was destinied to cross paths with dark forces... and to lose those for whom I most care.
 * 【mjt100.com】Sle-00_11_21--20170902-103045-2-.pngIchabod: I will avenge every life that blade has taken.
 * Abbie: Anything from Rudy?
 * Ichabod: No.
 * Abbie: Call him.

<p style="text-align:center;"> '- Chandler: (voice) [Hi, you've reached Detective Rudy Chandler of Sleepy Hollow Police Department. Please leave a message.]'

''It was an audio message instead of actual talk. Ichabod and Abbie looked at each other, feeling apalled. Abbie immediately had her faced turned more serious.'' ''Abbie made a 180 degrees turn and turned her car to the opposite direction. She drove all the way towards the place where Emily and Nelson was working.''
 * Abbie: Something was wrong. Hold on.

Act 5 (final?) - Malaria
<p style="text-align:center;"> 20 minutes later <p style="text-align:center;"> Underground parking lot

''After arriving at the destination, Abbie drove her van right into the underground parking lot. She then stopped her car right beside a police car when she saw it. She found the door of the police car was wide opened. Abbie immediately left her car and walked towards the police car, accompanied by Ichabod who was holding his rifle.'' ''When Abbie went closer, she saw Rudi Chandler's body crouching on the steering wheel. Horrified, Abbie immediately went towards her colleague.'' ''Ichabod and Abbie immediately went towards the car of Detective Chandler. Ichabod went closer to pull the body of the police detective from the steering wheel, but he found out that Chandler had died. His body was insangunated like the previous victim. Ichabod and Abbie then looked around with sheer alarm. Nelson was inside this place, and they could never let their guard down.'' Feeling utterly urgent, Abbie raised her phone and took a look at the phone's screen, which had said "No Service". Ichabod then  looked at the corpse of another victim under the blade. ''Suddenly, a yelling could be heard from not far away. It was a cry of a woman. Abbie and Ichabod both noticed this cry and realized that the murderer was just in this place as they expected.'' ''Ichabod did not hestitate to get the rifle for himself. He then went towards the back of the seats to get his rifle, while Abbie started to move herself closer towards the source of the sound.'' ''Ichabod closed the door after he took out his rifle. Abbie pointed her gun and called for Nelson.'' ''The cry had came again. Ichabod raised his rifle that had attached to a pipe in order to extend the range. Just then, a sinister sound had occured not far away.''
 * 【mjt100.com】Sle-00_32_58--20170917-004817-2-.pngAbbie: Rudy?
 * Abbie: There is no sign of Emily.
 * 【mjt100.com】Sle-00_33_06--20170917-005227-3-.pngIchabod: Or Mr. Meyers.
 * Abbie: Well, we need to seal up this place before he gets too far.
 * Ichabod: Two more kills. The knife has fed again. He'll be more powerful than before.
 * Abbie: Get the rifle.
 * Abbie: Nelson?
 * Abbie: Don't make this worse!

<p style="text-align:center;"> - Nelson: You're interrupting us.

''Ichabod immediately raised his rifle against Nelson, who had appeared not far away from him and Abbie. Nelson was holding the blade that had attached with his hand. He put the blade at Emily's throat, helding her as his hostage.''
 * 303Threatened.pngIchabod: Release her!

Emily was shivering in horror and was almost reduced to tears. ''Speaking in a deep and sinister voice like some demon from hell, Nelson forced Emily to stay quiet. She had to obey. Abbie raised her gun and started to confront Nelson, while Ichabod still standing in front of his enemy during the confrontation.'' ''Being totally possesed, Nelson did not agree. He only stared at Ichabod with a deranged grin.'' ''While Ichabod was confronting Nelson, Abbie went even closer to the killer. Nelson did not answer, and Abbie seized the chance and kicked the back of Nelson. Shocked by such a surprise attack, Nelson fell on the ground.''
 * Emily: Nelson, please...
 * Nelson: Shut up!
 * Ichabod: How will harming her make you any less of an outcast? Uh?
 * Nelson: You need to back off.
 * 【mjt100.com】Sle-00_34_05--20170917-010848-5-.pngIchabod: Fight what that weapon is doing with your mind, before it completely consume you.

''Ichabod immediately went towards Emily and escorted her to safety, but Nelson soon got up and knocked Abbie's gun from her hand. Then, Nelson grabbed Abbie's neck and pushed her on a pillar beside them.''

''After that, Nelson attempted to struck Abbie with the blade, but Abbie immediately dodged the attack. The blade knocked itself on the pillar and caused a sparkle. Then, Nelson grabbed Abbie's neck as she looked at him with pledge.'' Nelson shook his head with menace. ''Meanwhile, Ichabod had manage to hide Emily into safe areas. After escorting Emily, Ichabod raised his rifle and aimed at Nelson before he fired his shot of syringe immediately. However, some metalic black material suddenly covered Nelson's neck, blocking the syringe bullet. The syringe was knocked away by the material and fell on the ground.  In spite of this, Abbie was freed and fled, as Nelson stopped attackin her and checked on his own condition, feeling pleased that he was unscathed.'' Nelson then went towards Emily, and Ichabod immediately looked at Abbie and gave his instructions. ''Nelson slashed the blade on the iron wires above him, making sparkles everywhere. As Abbie was escorting Emily away, Nelson then knocked Ichabod on the ground with his elbow. He then started to chase Abbie and Emily.''
 * Abbie: Nelson, we know you felt ignored, but you need to know... that we can save you.
 * Nelson: I AM saved! They used to laugh at me. Think they'll laugh at me now?
 * 【mjt100.com】Sle-00_34_49--20170917-012510-9-.pngNelson: How cool is that?
 * Ichabod: Lieutenant, protect Ms. Emily!

''In retaliation, Abbie fired shots at Nelson but was futile. The bullets had been knocked away when they hit Nelson's body, as if they had hid some kind of metalic armor.'' Ichabod immediately went towards Nelson as the latter chased Abbie and Emily into deeper parts of the parking lot.

''Ichabod was trying to reload the only one shot in his hand, but Nelson turned back. Nelson walked towards Ichabod and knocked him again. The syringe had fell on the ground.''

''Ichabod had no time to pick it up. He only raised his empty rifle and attacked Nelson with it like some kind of stick. Icahbod dodged the slash of Nelson before he rushed to the dropped syringe, trying to pick it up.'' However, Nelson went back and confronted Ichabod once again, before he kicked the syringe away.

''Then, Ichabod and Nelson engaged in a close fight. Nelson knocked Ichabod's head and grabbed his hair, but Ichabod regained upper hand by knocking Nelson with his elbow before lifting him into the midair.''

''In process, Nelson fell on the ground, and Ichabod seized the chance. He quickly went to the bullet and tried to refill his rifle. However, Nelson stood up and rushed to Ichabod, slashing the gun in half.''

''Ichabod then stood up before he engaged into another close combat with Nelson... before he somehow stopped. '' Nelson seized the chance and immediately he plunged the blade into Ichabod's abdomen. ''In horror, Ichabod looked closer at Nelson's face. Nelson let out an evil grin and had his eyes glowing in red once again, while the knife was sucking blood out from Ichabod.''
 * Ichabod: AHH!

''Suddenly, as more blood from Ichabod was sucked out, Nelson's face suddenly changed into a face of horror. He stepped back one step after another, with smoke steaming out from his body. Ichabod did not have his blood drained too much by the knife, and so he was able to open his palm.''



Inside Ichabod's palm, it was the syringe.

Turned out that before Nelson could attack him, Ichabod had stunned himself with the tainted blood with infectious disease inside it, infecting his blood with disease and thus making Nelson who sucked his blood vulnerable.

''Looking at the syringe in Ichabod's hand, Nelson widened his eyes in sheer horror and despair. The demonic curse inside his mind had faded away, as his voice returned back to normal.'' ''Muttering out his final words before defeat, Nelson collapsed on the ground, powerless and weakened. He let out a scream as the dark material surrounded his arm faded away, rendering him back to normal.''
 * 【mjt100.com】Sle-00_35_53--20170917-082803-0-.pngNelson: What did you do?

Holding back his feelings of pain due to the stabbing and the disease, Ichabod looked at Nelson while speaking in a weak voice. ''Nelson then dropped on the ground and coughed harshly and bitterly. He then lied on the ground with despair in his eyes, losing consciousness completely.''
 * Ichabod: Ended this.

''Ichabod only watched as Nelson slowly losing his own consciousness, but he was too weak to do anything further. He could barely stand up. He soon felt pain started to consume him from inside.''

<p style="text-align:center;">' The disease he chose was none other than Malaria. '

''Ichabod felt the world was collasping beside him. Feeling unable to take it anymore, Ichabod lied on the ground and started to trembling. In a zig-zag way, feelings of scorch and frezzing came from his body one time after another. That was just the symptom of Malaria.'' Abbie had just made Emily escape from Nelson, and when she saw Ichabod, she found him struggling in pain and injury. ''Abbie immediately croched in front of Ichabod and put his head on her knee, feeling desperate for his condition. The feeling of losing another partner had came into her mind once again.'' ''Ichabod started to mumble something unclearly. Abbie looked at Ichabod in the eyes, feeling desperate upon his current situation. She kept shaking the head of Ichabod.''
 * 【mjt100.com】Sle-00_36_23--20170917-083904-3-.pngAbbie: Crane!
 * Abbie: It's all right. An ambulance is on the way.
 * Persona_5_shadow_sae_niijima_by_blazpu-dbapl53.jpgAbbie: Stay with me. Stay with me, okay? Crane... Crane!

<p style="text-align:center;"> '- ???: Tell me. How does it feel?'

''Abbie heard the voice and immediately turned back in shock. She heard a strange female voice coming from behind. It somehow cause chill on her spines. Abbie turned back and looked at the person behind her. It was a tall gray-haired woman with large hat and dressed in black dress. She grinned at Abbie with a slasher smile like some kind of evil clown from horror fictions.''

Unbeknowest to Abbie, this gray-haired woman was the one who gave Nelson the blade and corrupted him into an insane and psychopathic killer. ''Abbie's mind immediately flashed back into the night when Corbin was killed by the Headless Horseman, which would traumatize her entire life. Abbie glared at the gray-haired woman, wondering who she was.''
 * ???: To know that his life is slipping away through your fingers. To know that you're alone once again... ever since the death of your sheriff.

Then, Abbie turned back to Ichabod to comfort him as the woman continued her threats. ''Abbie then turned back to look at that mysterious gray-haired woman once again. However, that woman had disappeared. Abbie only saw an unconscious Nelson lying on the floor.''
 * ???: Alone in this fight of yours, alone in this world.

''The possessed blade which lost its power was lying right beside him. Abbie then looked back on Ichabod.''
 * Abbie: Stay with me, okay?

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

<p style="text-align:center;"> Luke Morales's office 

<p style="text-align:center;"> 20 minutes later 

''Inside Luke's office, Luke looked at the files on the recent murder case, detailing the case had closed and the killer was captured. Just then, Abbie walked into Luke's office after a knock on the door.'' Luke turned back and shrugged his shoulder to Abbie. ''Abbie smiled when she nodded her head. Luke then started to put files into the shelf.'' ''Abbie looked aside with slight distress. Her own words reminded her of her own sister, Jenny Mills, who was inside Tarrytown herself. Without noticing this, Luke then showed Abbie a bottle of whiskey.'' ''Abbie then sat on the seat when Luke get themselves a cup for each of them. He then sat down in front of Abbie and poured the whiskey inside the cups while talking. He seemed fully recovered from his previous condition after he was stunned by Christine's bee.'' Luke then granted Abbie her cup and Abbie accepted it with a smile. Abbie blushed and smiled, where as Luke found out that he had spoke too much. Luke then shrugged his shoulder as Abbie nodded in an approving manner. ''After Luke finished, Abbie nodded again and she consumed her cup of whiskey. Luke had his whiskey as well. Abbie smiled at him. She had a nice talk with his ex-boyfriend after such a distressing night worrying about the case as well as Ichabod's current condition.'' Abbie then turned her head away for a while and turned back to Luke, giving him a smile. ''Luke and ​Abbie smiled to each other. Abbie then stood up from her chair and left. She went straight towards the Archives to look for Ichabod's condition.''
 * Abbie: I need to rain check on dinner.
 * Luke: After the day you had, I don't doubt it.
 * Luke: Congrats on helping the local PD get their man. It sounds like he was a Grade-A lunatic.
 * Abbie: He'll be in Tarrytown Psych for a long time.
 * Abbie: One cup.
 * Abbie: Here's the thing: at the police acadamy, we helped each other, made each other better... I'd like to try to find a way to keep that working for both of us.
 * Luke: Now, that worked then because we were equals. Now, you are a lieutenant and I am a police detective. You're on a different track than I am, Abs.
 * Abbie: I'm just a few years ahead of you.
 * Luke: No, Abs, we both know you and you're just as good as an police officer as the late Sheriff Corbin, and I think he will be proud of you. I admire you, really.
 * Luke: I guess what we're trying to say is, we keep working off each other, have each other's backs, we can do a lot of damage.
 * Luke: What happened between us doesn't have to get in the way.
 * Abbie: Glad you say something, 'cause it was on my mind as well.
 * Abbie: Thank you for your drink.
 * Luke: Anytime.

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

<p style="text-align:center;"> Corbin's Archives 

''Ichabod had survived the entire ordeal and was weakly lying on the couch. His hand was attached to a medicine flask. Someone had treated him with an intravenous drip entreatment. Sister Mary Eunice stood beside Ichabod and looked at his condition getting better. She sighed in relief.'' ''A tall woman dressed in red maid outfit was standing not far away, cleaning the stain on the floor in a rapid speed. She held a large broom in her hand while looking at the unconcious Ichabod with a sigh. It was none other than Selina Strawberry, who had just arrived when Sister Mary Eunice dialed a phone call.'' ''Sister Mary Eunice sighed in relief. So far, she did not tell Selina that she already knew that she was the one who helped the Team Witness when they confronted Christine in the Mirror World, in order to avoid further embarrasement.'' ''Selina cleaned the entire floor. The wooden floor of the Archives was shining like gold, and Sister Mary Eunice was amazed to see all this. She then look at the watch in her hand with a face of shock.'' ''Selina had cleaned everything in the vast room of Archives in just 15 minutes, cleaning every traces of stains and dust before putting all of the files in proper order. Selina swept the sweat on her head with a look of relief.'' ''Selina then turned to look at a box on the table. The accrused Byzantine Parang was right inside the box. Then, Selina put the box and locked it inside another large box that was sealing files inside it.'' ''Already arriving back at the Archives, Abbie sat beside Sister Mary Eunice and Ichabod without saying a single word. Just then, Abbie noticed that Ichabod's eyelash started to shake, and she looked at Ichabod before putting the book on the table.'' ''Abbie was referring to the sedative that the doctor injected into Ichabod. Ichabod had somehow survived the ordeal coming form such a deadly disease like malaria. Sister Mary Eunice and Selina were both pleased to see Ichabod awaken and survived, feeling relieved.'' ''Ichabod looked at all three people beside him. He raised his index finger as if he had nothing to worry about it.'' ''All three women had realized what happened at once. Abbie smiled and leaned forward a bit to Ichabod. She then looked at him with a more serious look.'' ''Selina suddenly reacted in shock when she heard the phrase, "a gray-haired woman". Horrified, Selina started to stumble back and held the chest of herself. Sister Mary Eunice and Ichabod immediately found something went wrong.'' ''Selina bit her lips in fury. She immediately calmed herself down.'' ''Abbie shook her head. She could not understand why Selina had such a reaction.'' ''Selina then stood up and left. Ichabod, Abbie and Sister Mary Eunice then continued their discuss on this case. It was very apparent that this seemly simple murder was connected to another great conspiracy.''
 * Sister Mary Eunice: I am glad that Ichabod had your name card, Ms. Sarandon, so that I can contact you to make you help in such a reckless mess.
 * Selina: With pleasure, Sister. It seems like my fame preceeds me that even someone like you, who had just arrived in this town in less than three months had know about this situation. August Corbin is a friend of mine, and so is Reverend Knapp. Since the man who was connected to them was in trouble, I cannot stood by and watch. After all, he is the key to make our town get better.
 * Selina: Now, here we go. How much time do I take?
 * 53537069_p5_master1200.jpgSister Mary Eunice: You cleaned this vast room in only 15 minutes? Impressive.
 * Selina: Good, I like such a winter holiday.
 * Selina: That will keep it safe as long as no one in the enemy's side get into this place and find it. I will keep this as a secret. I promise.
 * 【mjt100.com】Sle-00_40_14--20170917-095337-6-.pngIchabod: Lieuteanant?
 * Abbie: They got you on some powerful stuff, so take it easy.
 * Sister Mary Eunice: Crane, of all the damning and filthy diseases in this world,  you chose to inject yourself with malaria? 
 * Ichabod: For your information, malaria was the patroit's greatest ally during the Siege of Charleston. We had grown resistence to the disease... whilst the British recruits fell ill by the hundreds.
 * Sae_Shadow.pngIchabod: After you passed out, there was a gray-haired woman had showed up. Judging by her tone, I believ she was the person who drove Nelson into madness.
 * Ichabod: What is it, Ms. Sarandon?
 * ​Selina: I'm fine, Mr. Crane. By the way, Lt. Mills... did she harm you?
 * Abbie: No, she was... more like trying to scare me. Apparently, I made her a list of people to mess with, too. I still don't understand why she did all this. 
 * Selina: I guess she wants to raise fear, and yet she choose the wrong place - Sleepy Hollow. I will keep an eye on her. She might be someone I know, and I will dig out the truth behind all of this mess. I need to go now.

None of then had noticed that Selina left through the secret gate of the Archives that led towards the Munition tunnels. ''Ichabod shook his head and was confused as well. Feeling tired once again, Ichabod lied back to the couch and closed his eyes.'' ''Abbie felt a bit of uneasy when Ichabod mentioned the Witnesses duty once again. Abbie still held fear on her own traumatized childhood and the guilt upon her sister, but she nodded anyway.'' ''After that, Ichabod quickly fell asleep like an baby. Sister Mary Eunice then put a blanket on Icabod. Looking at Ichabod, Abbie knew that no matter how she viewed her duty as the Witnesses, the life she known and lived before shall perish and be replaced.''
 * Sister Mary Eunice: Let us assume that she IS the major mastermind behind this serial killings. I was confused. That gray-haired woman wanted to raise fear in the town... for what reason? How does she gain from that?
 * Ichabod: I have no idea... but I am certain we shall uncover the entire plot... and we shall foil it. We are, after all, the Witnesses.
 * Ichabod: I am grateful, lieuteanant, that you and I have found one another... once again.

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

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

<p style="text-align:center;"> 10 minutes later

''After leaving the Archives via the secret door, unnoticed by Ichabod, Selina took down her eyepatch. She walked through the long, dense way through the Munition Tunnel. Selina walked into this series of old tunnels with a history of more than 2 centuries. The tunnel stood still even after so many years had past.'' ''A woman's face suddenly appeared in the mind of Selina. It was a woman in suit with a cruel and cold face, hardly ever having any smile on her face as if she was made of pure stone cold face. Selina then narrowed her eyes before she suddenly bit her lips.  Still having doubts inside her mind, Selina shook her head in dismay.'' Selina then disappeared into the dark and deep tunnel without a trace.
 * Selina: (think) * Hmm, this new mission had now accomplished, but is that gray haired woman... *
 * Selina: (think) * No, that woman had pink hair, not gray. However, if that gray-haired woman is not her, then why she was missing all the time? *
 * Selina: (think) * Anyway, I must not let my guard down. If I found out the truth behind all of this, I will do whatever that will make this town away from being tainted by selfish scums! *

Methods
''After the final test in the students from Hope's Peak Acadamy, many people got their grade very quickly. Sonia Nevermind got the best score in math.''

''However, her classmate, Nagito Komaeda, did not earn a good score. He decided to ask Sonia about the method.'' Sonia did not hestitate on telling Nagito the answer in a calm tone. ''​Nagito heard this and he crossed his arm. He then grinned in a scary manner before he berated out in sheer fraustration...'' Sonia was speechless.
 * Nagito: Sonia, there is something I do not understand. How can you have such a grade in this math test?
 * Nagito5.pngSonia: Well, it was nothing. During the time you were sleeping after school, I use that time to study harder.
 * Nagito: I see. Now, I know the reason why I can't have enough sleep... Turns out, you took my sleeping time from me!

Albert's Theory
​"......"
 * Uguisumaru.full.2036397.jpgt: (narrator) During a math test, if you cannot beat your opponent in the score, it does not matter. After all, you can win him by this method using your test paper.
 * Albert: (narrator) 10 minutes after the test, no matter what the circumstance could be, you need to move to the next page of the paper, very soon! You need to turn the page in a loud voice so that your opponent could hear it. You need to be fast in speed, you need to be accurate in time, you need to be powerful in strength, and you need to fill your eyes with sheer disdain as if you felt bored in solving those "easy tricks" on the paper! After that, you can even make the opponent of yours doubt his own life!

​Eat Zongzi
​"......"
 * Selina: (narrator) I still remember one of those wonderfuk days when I went to China. On a Dragon Boat Festival, my new Chinese friend presented me a bag of Zongzi, or Chinese rice dumplings, respectively stuffed in red bean paste, meat fillings, and other kinds of stuff. They were covered in large flat leaves in dark green hue. I never had any Zongzi before, and I do not know it was leaves that covered those rice stuffs.
 * Selina: (narrator) The next day, I saw that Chinese friend again. He asked me whether I enjoy those Zongzi desserts. I answered with a smile, "Yes, I did, except its peel is too tough to chew on ."

Act ?6 (final) - Gray-Haired Woman


<p style="text-align:center;">' Hide to avoid spoilers... '

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

<p style="text-align:center;"> Some Secret Place 

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

<p style="text-align:center;"> 10 minutes later 

''The murder spree was over, but the evil was still going on with its plan upon the town of Sleepy Hollow. The mysertious grey-haired woman, whom Abbie just met, had silently sat on her seat, apparently waiting for someone. Now, she had changed into another suit and looked like a lawyer.''

Suddenly, as if she noticed someone coming, her eyes widened and spoke. It was none other than Nevins who stood behind the gray-haired woman, who looked at him with a face full of cold and apathy. ''Eventually, it was revealed to be the parking lot where Nelson was arrested. The police had left the area, and there were only Nevins and the gray-haired woman inside the place.''
 * ???: Oh, finally you're here. After that Crane guy came back from the dead, I had to change myself into a different looking due to insecurity, and I have none other people to trust other than people like you... Mr. Atticus Nevins.
 * 306Atticus.png???: Nice place you chose... inside the place where Nelson Meyers was arrested. I heard from my police spy that Captain Irving was about to take what you caused seriously.
 * ???: I heard some rumors and now I want to comfirm it. Do you have the blood of Christine Van Bilj, Nevins?

''Nevins nodded and finally spoke the entire truth, since she had did what he requested her to do. The Byzantine Parang had served its own purpose... for now.'' The gray-haired woman, who was revealed to be a female procecutor according to how Nevins adressed her, reacted in sheer surprise and she widened her eyes. The gray-haired woman calmed herself down quickly, and she looked at Nevins after turning her head and faced him face to face. Nevins shrugged his shoulders and smiled as well. ''The grey haired woman widened her eyes even more with sheer curiousity. With excitement, her pink eyes glowed in golden all of a sudden.'' ''Nevins nodded and the gray-haired woman stood up, with a evil smile. Her outfit changed as well, into her outfit when confronting Abbie before. She was now in a revealing black and dark grey dress with a large hat. There was two yellow roses on her hat.'' ''​The woman seemed indifferent. She only clenched her hand on her arm while closing her eyes, acting in a poker face.'' The woman stopped speaking comments on her current dress, and a devious smile appeared on her aroused face. ''​The woman shrugged her shoulder while her smile was still wearing on her face, with a face of malice. Nevins looked at the woman with a face full of sheer bewilderment'' ''​Nevins was surprised to hear the word, the "Stone of Wisdom". He narrowed his eyes and was sweating in shock. Nevins looked at the woman in surprise, unbelieving she had the nerve to take the legendary Stone of Wisdom, a stone that was rumored to be treasured by the Order of Flourish as somehow a holy artifact to worship. Lord Helio knew its deeper secret which many of his followers were completely oblivious from knowing it, not to mention Nevins who never kept in touch with this mysterious Light Lord.''
 * Nevins: Ms. Procecutor, I not only have her blood. I also have all of the jewels of Van Bilj Family, including their replicas. Our Master will gain immense power from it.
 * ???: Really? I thought it was all a rumor, but I guess I am wrong. Congratulations.
 * Nevins: It was nothing, and as you can see, the plan made between me, you, Lord Moloch as well as that Michael Langdon was far from over.
 * ???: Michael Langdon? I thought he was dead.
 * P5_portrait_of_Shadow_Sae_smiling.pngNevins: You are not the only one who thought he was dead. I realized he survived after I got his message from his future world. I met Selina in the Van Bilj facility which were now fell into ruins. She said she would let Michael pay for his works.
 * ???: You mean Michael never gave himself up to his next goal? And you mean you really saw Selina helping the Witnesses? Since the death of Lady Hestia Hawthorn, Lord Helio believed only he could save the world from its fate of being shattered. What a jackass.
 * Zhongfeng.Lee.full.2144725.jpgNevins: This suit was not as good as the pink cultist dress you wore before, and your hair... You dyed it back to gray, which it was your natural born hair color, right?
 * ???: Well, who knows? Maybe you had a bad taste, Mr. Nevins. I returned to public image now and dying in pink hair that Lord Helio requested would be silly.
 * The_Sabbath_begins.jpg???: In fact, Mr. Nevins, I don't give any care on your Master's plan, and I don't care if you take over Sleepy Hollow. However, as long as you can make my own plan get its harvest, that is enough.
 * Nevins: I'll see whatever I can do. However, is that why you called me out? Only to listen to your boasting?
 * U=4022685777,3413115936&fm=27&gp=0.jpg???: That is not boasting. I don't care if Moloch takes over the world, but as long as I can hold this town inside my palm... things will be fully interesting. The Father wants to start a new Feast of Apollo, and I guess it will be a chance for us to get the Stone of Wisdom itself.



In a bizzard manner and reason, the Stone of Wisdom was granted in another alias known as the Withering Mourner, which meant that the stone itself had the power to make the term "withering" disappeared on the earth, and people will only mourn the term of withering whereas the entire world was covered by a forever flourishing society.

''However, it sounded so absurd and unrealistic to Nevins. It was unknown to Nevins how many of the Order of Flourish members were so dedicated to it.''

In order to keep the safety of this stone, the myserious Light Lord kept the stone was now perserved by a female recluse of the Order who hid away from the mad crowd, and her name was none other than Helene Hawthorn, one of the few people who know the truth behind this stone despite calling it that absurd term of "Withering Mourner".
 * ???: What happened, Mr. Nevins? You seemed surprised.

''To Nevins' surprise, this grey-haired woman attempted to get the Stone of Wisdom from that recluse girl, and that was why she attempted to work with Nevins as well as whoever that was behind him. What she planned to do with the Stone of Wisdom made Nevins curious, though it was obvious she tried to use it in her own plan.'' Distrusting this woman, Nevins looked at her with disdain and annoyance.
 * ???: I have already make up a plan, but it will be a big and long-lasting one. Still, it will not make conflict on your plan.
 * Nevins: How so?
 * ???: You can take down the Witnesses while I take over the Order. After I got the Stone of Wisdom, Mr. Nevins, I will take down that hypocritical Selina Strawberry... who never admit her dark side... and then I can ask her this question, "Who... controls... Sleepy Hollow... NOW!?" When I got her inside my palm alongside the entire Sleepy Hollow she ran... SHE'LL DIE!

''The grey haired woman opened her hand as if she tried to grab something. She then clenched it into a fist, as if she had crushed the town of Sleepy Hollow inside her hand.'' ​Nevins lowered her head and thought about Selina Strawberry. ​The woman's tone and personality changed in such a drastically way along with her suit, accoring to Nevins' point of view. ​Then, the woman closed her eyes briefly, as if she was imagining the scene.
 * ???: I'm not Selina. I'm not her. I'm fully aware of Father's corruption and his petty but true alliegence to demon worshippers like you. I bet she won't accept this.
 * Nevins: Maybe you are right. She does live in her own delusions, believing she was good for the many.
 * ShadowSae2.gif???: Like all those fools were. However, she can sacrifise a few when situation needed. I know well about her. To be honest, Selina is like a train conductor driving a train that is out of control. She has to put the unstoppable train on two different rails, but there were people crossin both of the rails.
 * Nevins: I know what you are referring next. One of the two sides had only one kind and ordinary man who crossed the rail, and the other side had a group of five notorius scums, including a bribed cop, a drug dealer, a kidnapper, a mass murderer and a sexual abuser.
 * ???: Indeed. Now, will she sacrifise the need of a few good to save the many who are evil?

​Nevins did not quite understand what the woman was on about, but somehow he felt chill on his spines, thinking about Selina's hidden dark side.
 * Nevins: Hmm, I doubt it. Even so, I guess decide we can use this as an advantage. When we got our respective profits, I guess we shall part our ways. Is that what you want, Ms. Procecutor?

''The woman nodded when Nevins finished his words. After falling into thoughts, Nevins scoffed at her. He was still feeling unbearable from Christine's own arrogant speeches not long ago, and now he had to face another egotistic woman.'' ''The woman did not get angry. She swayed her arm and grinned at Nevins. However, her face soon turned more and more serious as if her personality could be changed. It suddenly changed from a carefree and arrogant one to a more serious and less talkactive one.'' ​The woman opened her eyes, and her eyes were full of fire of evil inside them.
 * Nevins: You have more pride than Christine. You are a megalomaniac.
 * ???: Hmm, never mind. I am not Christine. Christine thought she did for greater good. She is a colassal hypocrite. I'm not like her.
 * ???: I admit what I did is out of criminal minds, in order to take over the Order and turn this world's frown upside down. Pride is my middle name, Mr. Nevins, with the letter P that is recurring in my entire name. That is how and why I find the job of mine... a well-known prosecutor of this town with a perfect record... very interesting with the letter "P".

<p style="text-align:center;"> - ???: After all, my name is Phyllis Pride Parker, also known as Phyllis Peach...



''The woman soon revealed her name and then, with her smile completley faded, she turned back into her full serious expression. Her outfit turned back into her prosecutor uniform, and her eyes turned back to pink. Phyllis then blinked at Nevins, this time in a less arrogant attitude.'' ''Nevins felt unsettling when he saw the woman altered her own personality. At first, she was both prideful, sadistic and megalomaniacal. Next, she turned serious, calm and quiet. It made Nevins unnerved.'' ''Nevins words did not make Phyllis smile. She only looked at him with a cold poker face. Nevins bit his lips and turned more serious look.'' ''Phyllis shook her head. A faint smile surfaced on her face, but it faded immediately.'' Nevins crossed his arms and narrowed his eyes. Two seconds later, Phyllis answered before she walked away swiftly, leaving Nevins thinking at his place.
 * Phyllis: Maybe, that is all for now. Maybe it was an overacting. I was too excited.
 * Sae_Harmed_Cut-in.pngNevins: If you want to take over the power of that so-called Light Lord, you can do it yourself. Why do you want to work with us?
 * Nevins: Is there something more... you want from me?
 * Phyllis: You just need to trust me, since this world is going dissary. That's all. In fact, Mr. Nevins, there was one more request I want you to do, not now... You just do it when you have a chance.
 * Nevins: What request?

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Phyllis: Find Jenny Mills for me after she escape Tarrytown. Don't worry. She will escape one day. The true bird never needs a cage for herself. She needs a trap. '

Purgatory
<p style="text-align:center;"> Moloch's Lair 

<p style="text-align:center;"> 4 meters to Christine Van Bilj's cell block 

<p style="text-align:center;"> 10 minutes later 

''Nevins looked at Moloch while speaking in a calm and malicious tone. After that, Nevins stared at the prisoner behind the bars, an injured woman with brown hair and face covered in beehive. It was Christine Van Bilj, now with her soul imprisoned in Purgatory.''
 * Nevins: So, that's pretty much the end of it, Master. The souls of the blade is now trapped in Purgatory. I guess... even if that blade is now in the hands of Crane and was sealed in his base, the fate will lead the bloodshed coming from it once again in future.
 * August_Corbin.pngChristine: ......

Then, Nevins ignored the woman who was also glaring at him, and he turned to Moloch once again. ''Moloch stood not far away from Nevins, and Nevins lowered his head and dared not look at Moloch's face. It was apparent that Moloch was in a very bad mood.'' Moloch scoffed when he started to think about August Corbin.
 * Nevins: For now, Lt. Mills still have no attempt to find her sister inside Tarrytown, and I guess that Corbin hid many things from them.
 * Moloch: [August... Corbin...]

Before Moloch could figure out an idea, Christine behind him smiled in a malicious manner. Enraged, Moloch heard this and turned back to look at his failed minion. ''Christine shook her head and sighed. Her face was now covered in bruises due to the previous battle and the torture of Moloch, but a malicious grin was on her face. It was apparent that she had another conspiracy inside her own mind.'' ''Moloch and Nevins heard Christine's words and was at first confused. However, when Christine said "that thing", Moloch narrowed his eyes deviously.''
 * Moloch: [Since Michael Langdon succeeded to do neither preventing Mills from finding her destiny nor killing her, I need to do something else to make her tormented.]
 * Christine: Why not digging out their darkest secret to torment them, Master?
 * Moloch: [You failed my mission, Christine, and you made an epic fail. Why should I ask for your idea?]
 * Hungary.full.1969024.jpgChristine: My death is only a start. Although I never expected that I was killed in my previous battle, it is still a risk I can take. Because of my awakning and presence, those creatures that was crafted by me was ready to set out. Master, I have one more trump card, and only I have authority to order him to cause chaos and distress. Please llow me to do one more mission to cause fear and mayhem inside Sleepy Hollow... to send THAT THING into the town.
 * Moloch: You mean...

''Christine nodded with a gruesome smile, all the while holding the pain she suffered from Moloch's brutal torture. She had no fear upon her punishment, and she was seemed to be glad to endure all those suffering.'' ''Furious, Moloch immediately rushed towards Christine with fury. His claws stretched into Christine's cell block and was only one inch far from Christine's face.'' ''Christine only looked at Moloch with no fear at all. She looked straight into Moloch's eyes as if she never served him. Moloch was furious, but soon he calmed himself down and moved his claw out of the bars.'' ''Christine's word did not make Moloch change his facial expression. However, he moved towards the center of his lair before casting a spell. Soon, a black puff smoke started to surface itself from the middle of the lair. ''
 * Christine: Master, you can give me one hour, just one more hour. I will send that creature out and pick up a target with dark secrets. After that... that thing shall go free. It only listens to my command. Only I can make him do anything he wants, since I recreated him from an ordinary human into a demonic wraith.  I hate to say so, but even YOU cannot order him, Master. You can only summon him. 
 * Christine: It sounds like you are too use to listen to the words of praise, and now I am not used to speak any praise now.
 * Christine: Master, a dark secret holding in someone's hand can get them killed, and I know about a dark secret on Ichabod Crane. I can torment him with that. 

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Moloch: Fine, I shall believe you one more time. '

''The blackened smoke then turned to a humanoid figure with greyish skil and gaseous body. Christine looked at the creature with a gruesome smile. She looked at the creature straight into its eyes,'' The creature immediately stepped back in horror when Christine spoke out its name, but it soon returned back to calmness when it recognized its mistrress.
 * 302Wraith1.pngChristine: Well, even if this monster failed to kill the Witnesses, I guess it would be beneficial for gathering more souls into Purgatory. After all, hiding some dark secrets can cause this town's downfall.
 * Christine: Don't you think so, Marcus Collins?

''This creature was once a colonial soldier named Marcus Collins, but was turned into a wraith creature by Christine after his surrender into British Army. He gained dark abilities to delve into a human's darkest secrets. It exposed those secrets in front of their eyes before silencing them by killing them without a trace of blood or injury, putting those secrets died with them unnoticed.'' ''Nevins looked at the dark creature in its smoke-like cloak. For the first time, he was impressed by what Christine was capable to do. Moloch then moved forward to Christine once again with manace.'' ''Once again, Christine shook her head. She only smiled in a devious manner. Suddenly, screams started to coming from another cell in Purgatory, and Christine can't control herself from chuckling.'' ''Nevins narrowed his head and ask Christine while a sweat drop came from his forehead. He was feeling nervous. It was apparent that Christine had changed her personality and talked like a real adult after inside Purgatory Just for days.''
 * Nevins: Hmm...
 * Moloch: [You are not afraid if I put more tortures on you when you failed again? Remember, that Valindra Shadowmantle was yet to revive you. I can give you a chance to do this mission, but remember, you can only move your soul essense in Sleepy Hollow for one hour and cannot use magic at all.]
 * Christine: Uhehehheh, thank you... Master, I know that Valindra had took my ashes to recreate my body, but that does not matter.
 * Nevins: You are not bothered? Even if you are stuck in here?
 * Christine: Why, no.

​Christine smiled once again in calmness, in contrast to the terrifying scream coming from another deeper dungeon. ''The scream was coming from Lady Van Tassel, who was also tormented and tortured inside Purgatory, albeit with a longer time - for 215 years.  Christine gave Marcus a nod, hinting her order. Marcus then disappared Moloch snarled when he looked at the tunnel towards the cell of Lady Van Tassel. He then looked at Christine again.'' ''Christine only looked at Moloch in a calm expression, in contrast to her childish and spoiled behavior before she died. She now presented herself like a truly dark, heartless and malicious monster in human skin, being calmer, darker, more sophicicated.'' ''However, Christine then looked away and closed her eyes. Her face then turned more and more serious.''
 * LadyVanTasselTrueNature.jpgChristine: I won't be bothered at all. At least, I can listen to that wretched witch to scream with terror... while suffering less pain than I suffered.
 * Christine: She suffered less pain in her own punishment from what I suffered in my own punishment. However, she is now screaming like a coward where as I admit my mistake. That's the difference between me and her.
 * Moloch: [I know you held Ichabod Crane's darkest secret and want him to be killed by the guilt caused by such a secret. If I give you another chance when you returned back to life, will you become more successfull in your plan?]
 * Christine: Trust me, Master. After all those lessons, I know what my mistakes are. I know what should I do to prevent all of those mistakes that caused me to die like that as best as I can.

''Moloch then nodded to Christine in satisfaction. At least, he saw true determination on Christine.'' ''Christine then smiled once again, this time not in a bratty manner, but a devious manner. In arousement, she licked her lips.'' ''Moloch then left the lair and went into the forest outside. Feeling unbelievable for Christine's determination, Nevins looked at Christine before he sighed and left. After that, Christine closed her eyes and grinned.''
 * Christine: However, I will not show regret for what I had done in Sleepy Hollow. It was just a beginning, and I will one day put everything we started to its most satisfying endings. After I return to the town in flesh and blood, I will enforce your will once again, Master, for the coming... of a new era in this world!
 * Moloch: [A new era? A new era is coming? It sounds like a suspencion that is utterly interesting.]
 * Christine: Believe me, Lord Moloch. As you know, I am so far stuck in this place, but I truly anticipate what will come next. Those monsters are just prologue, and the real fun shall return.
 * Christine: Hmm...

Moloch's Message


<p style="text-align:center;">' - Moloch: It has been 232 years from the day when Ichabod Crane died. However, he is now stood in front of me alive and well. That was quite unbelievable, and I need to find someone to blame... HARSHLY. '

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



<p style="text-align:center;">' - Moloch: One for sorrow, two for mirth, three for a wedding and four for a birth. The Period of Tribulations started already after the Horseman of Death gained its vessel, and soon the other three will come and start my reign on Earth. '

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



<p style="text-align:center;">' - Moloch: After I made a tie to that demon lady, that daughter of Leohart, I became weaker for the outcome of that battle which costed most of my strength, and I had to stay in Purgatory, deep inside my lair. However, this will not go long. Those who had laughed at me... they are the one who have no ambition at all. One day, I will make all of them impressed. '



<p style="text-align:center;">' - Moloch: There was a so-called Order who claimed to control the town of Sleepy Hollow. That was hilarious to the clowns and boring to me! Can't they see the truth behind the leader? I know it very well. Soon, when those brainless puppets lost their power thanks to my LITTLE SPY, I will take over the town. Purgatory will be risen. The town would be covered in a tide of blood! '

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

<p style="text-align:center;">' - Moloch: Rise, the fire of Hell... '



<p style="text-align:center;">'' - Moloch: COME AND SEE!!! ''

Lyrics
<p style="text-align:center;">Dreamless dorm -

<p style="text-align:center;">Ticking clock,

<p style="text-align:center;">I walk away -

<p style="text-align:center;">from the soundless room

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

<p style="text-align:center;">Moonlight melts,

<p style="text-align:center;">My ghostly shadow -

<p style="text-align:center;">to the lukewarm gloom

<p style="text-align:center;">Nightly dance...

<p style="text-align:center;">of bleeding swords...

<p style="text-align:center;">Reminds me that...

<p style="text-align:center;">I still live...

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

<p style="text-align:center;">(Burn my dread)

<p style="text-align:center;">I once ran away from the god of fear

<p style="text-align:center;">And he chained me to despair, yeah

<p style="text-align:center;">(Burn my dread)

<p style="text-align:center;">I will break the chain and run

<p style="text-align:center;">till I see the sunlight again

<p style="text-align:center;">I'll lift my face

<p style="text-align:center;">and run to the sunlight

<p style="text-align:center;">Voiceless town,

<p style="text-align:center;">tapping feet,

<p style="text-align:center;">I clench my fist,

<p style="text-align:center;">In pockets tight...

<p style="text-align:center;">Far in mist a tower waits...

<p style="text-align:center;">Like a merciless tomb,

<p style="text-align:center;">devouring moonlight...

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

<p style="text-align:center;">(Burn my dread)

<p style="text-align:center;">This time I'll grapple down that god of fear

<p style="text-align:center;">And throw him into hell's fire

<p style="text-align:center;">(Burn my dread)

<p style="text-align:center;">I will shrug the pain and run

<p style="text-align:center;">till I see the sunlight again

<p style="text-align:center;">Oh, I will run...

<p style="text-align:center;">burning all regret and dread...

<p style="text-align:center;">And I will face the sun -

<p style="text-align:center;">with pride of the living...

In the Next Episode...


<p style="text-align:center;">'' - Marcus: Secrets... Secrets... Kill for secrets... I will kill... ''



<p style="text-align:center;">'' - Howe: GIVE US THE NAMES! ''



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



<p style="text-align:center;">'' - Betsy: Come and face me, Marcus Collins! ''



<p style="text-align:center;">'' - Ichabod: And now it seemes the same dire wraith who killed my fellows stalks the streets of Sleepy Hollow. ''



<p style="text-align:center;">'' - Sister Mary Eunice: Those victims sought to stop the embezziling... to remove a blight in their community, just like the heroic spies who sought to topple General Howe as he bled dry the city of New York. ''



<p style="text-align:center;">'' - Ichabod: Like you, Marcus, I had the same choice while facing Christine and Howe. I was offered clemency by the enemy, but I did not accept it, because I hold firm and YOU DO NOT!!! ''



<p style="text-align:center;">'' - Ichabod: Yes, I defied General Howe. Yes, I refused to bewray my fellow spies... but I did consider the option. The shame of that moment stuck for centuries. ''

<p style="text-align:center;">'' - ???: ...... ''



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

Afterwords

 * From Officer: Sorry for so much of delay. I was on a school trip to Hunan Province and had homework to do. This episode marks the beginning of the second Sub Arc which is different from the last one. It features no great battles or central arc villain other than Moloch. However, it is still a sub arc which will solve many past problems while setting for a new stage to make the Headless Horseman reprise his role.
 * ​Two more characters from the Order of Flourish are directly introduced and had their own pages as well. See: Albert Apple and... [SPOILER CHARACTER].
 * From Prime: We are now planning another crossover event between LOTM: Witnesses of Sleepy Hollow and LOTM: Sword of Kings centered around Magic Side. See: LOTM: Los Reina de Corazónes.
