Chapter 125: Fragile Minds Part 2 (2/2)

Alton gritted his teeth, picking him up snapping. ”Will you pack it in already!”

”Henry Truman. Just like your sister, it's over.”

”So, you've had the pleasure of meeting my sister, huh? I haven't seen her in years, how is the little devil?”

”She tried to kill me.” Zinnia said.

”Well, that's nothing new. Of course, she failed, though. Her illusions are nothing compared to me.”

Alton threw him against the wall hissing. ”Still not enough to bring us down. Now I'm going to ask you a few questions. Who hired you? How the hell did you get us out here of all places?! Who wants me dead?”

EOR sighed, looking disappointed. ”Very well. I suppose I've overstayed my welcome. It was fun though, for winning my game here is your prize.” He held up the crown. The winning ticket for the wish they were all promised. ”I hope this makes up from the… Inconveniences.”

Alton threw the Jester to the ground holding the crown in his hands captivated by it. ”This is it. What we all were working for.”

”One wish… But the question lies.” Zinnia muttered.

Alton glanced at her and the others biting his lip. ”Who gets to make that wish…”
