Welcome to The Masquerade

"Joe? I've never heard of you." she said and sat down beside them. "I'm Helga btw"

He sighed, "Look Poca, we had something a while ago, but you didn't feel the same way. Now I have those feelings for someone else. Things are different now. I just want you to know I'll always love you.... as a friend. The way you used to love me back then."

[Ooc, phew and YAY!! XDD *evil chuckle ]

"You can't know everybody," he said and shrugged.

Pocahontas looked at him, his words stabbing him in her heart, "We had something a while ago? We didn't have ANYTHING because YOU DIDN'T TELL ME!" Pocahontas was getting upset, letting some tears fall. She listened to him speak more. "Yeah only as a friend...Because I'm not the same Pocahontas.."

Snow White smiled at Helga, "Its nice to meet you, I'm amazed at how many people landed up in here." She said and sighed.

"There was a period where the room was freezing cold. More that usual. The water froze at some point. And to begind with we only had our regular clothes and a towel. Nothing else. It wasn't like that in your roo-..."
He stopped. She had probably been with John. Or he wouldn't do such things. Afterall she was pregnant with his child. And he let Meg die because of that.
Sinbad told himself to calm down. There was no reason to get upset about that now. There was nothing that could bring Meg back anyway.
He looked down at Cinderella's stomach.
"So.. what's it like being, well, pregnant?"

"Poca please..." He tried to hug her, he hated to see her upset.

Pocahontas backed up, trying not to get into his arms. Only to fail when he hugged her..She suddenly pushed him away, "NO!" She yelled, backing up more, looking into his eyes. The tears started to come, "Don't...Just..Don't..Don't pretend you even care for me." Her body was shaking, trying so hard not to cry..

"but people talk, you know. I've heard many names, but not yours." She raised an eyebrow, even if she know no one could see it because of the mask.
"Nice to meet you too. " she smiled at her.

"Why not?! I DO care for you. I still consider you as a friend! Don't do this shit. Please."

"Oh wow..." Cinderella whispered, in shock. She noticed the way he stopped and she just looked away.

She looked back up at him at his question. "It's uh... It's really different... I'm a lot more hungrier now then I used to be." She said, laughing a little. "And it just feels werid having my stomach get bigger..."

She wanted to say she was sorry for him having to live in a frozen room...

"I... I hope that some way we get out of here..." She said, quietly.

Snow White frowned when she heard that and looked over at Joe, maybe Helga was wrong? "So what were your professions?" She asked
[Ooc, don't worry Vill, she'll notice it XDD]

Pocahontas looked away, hearing him almost yell at her, "Then stop acting like you care for me when...You don't..You kept telling me you loved me..And then told me that you loved a memory of me..." She let out a whimper, fighting the tears again. She looked at him, looking down, hiding her face.

"Poca, were just different people now. We cant go back in time. We just gotta keep moving forward. I know your going to meet someone who deserves you, and I want to stay close with you like how we were back in the good ol days."

"I see. Then it's not good you haven't eaten in so long. Haven't you even at least gotten some bread?" he asked concerned. "I mean, it's better than nothing. Especially if you are eating for two."

Pocahontas looked back up at him, "So I'm not calm and gentle like the river anymore?" The tears finally rushed out as she reached up to her neck, grabbing her necklace. It was a sign to Thrax that she still had his necklace, "How do you know that there is someone out for me..Huh?" Pocahontas looked away, not knowing what to what to say at his last remark.

"I had a little bit before I was brought here... I wanted more but... I had just, um... saw something a bit... distracting on the television..." She said, being a little vague and slightly shudder and the memory.

That's right, that was Ariel... She thought, remembering it.

"Oh yeah, what did you s-...."
He paused. He remembered what he had seen on TV not so long ago. And apparently Jasmine had seen it as well. Maybe Cinderella had also seen it.
He turned his head away.
"... nevermind," he mumbled.

Naveen realized he was hungry, so he got up and started walking around looking for some food, also for Helga making sure she was okay. 'I wonder how Rapunzel is doing... hope she is okay... or at least unharmed' he thought to himself.

She glanced up and him then looked down.

"So..." After a moment of awkward silence. "You want to watch the movie?" She asked, hoping to move thoughts to other things.

Thrax looked at Poca's hand has she touched the neckless he thought after all these years she still wears it.... he listened to her questioned and wanted to comfort her "Poca You are amazing your one of the best people I know and someday one guy will go crazy over you..." He could tell She was starting to get upset

Snow White looked down at her palm and then looked over at Joe's hand, there was no mark on the palm. She felt a cold chill run up her spine, why doesn't he have a Mark?? she wondered.

"No I'm not..And I don't think I am even worthy of love..Cause every time I put my heart out...Someone breaks it....And for once I thought you were going to be different.." She looked down to his claw, gripping her necklace more, "And...I'm the one who made you change yourself." She turned around, facing her back to him. Tears ran down as she started to let out soft cries.

"I'm assassin" She answered quickly and did not care about the question
were to her or Joe. "You? snow?" she asked and glanced at Naveen with a smile

"I'm a photographer," he said and smiled. The only thing that really gave him happiness anymore was photography. To capture nature's beauty. It always astounded him how calm and beautiful the world could look on the outside, while on the inside...

[Ooc, eek!!]
Snow White's eyes widened, "You were an assassin?" She all but blurted and blushed, "Sorry that was kinda loud, and wow what kind of pictures did you take? And I was a thief." She asked Joe, though she was starting to doubt that Joe wasn't who he appeared to be.

The awkward silence told him that he was right. She had seen Ariel and Odette.
- And that was so my fantastic girlfriend you saw ripping out my babies of some other girl's stomach, he thought to himself. But even so he couldn't make himself think any less of her.

"Uhm, yeah... Why not," he said and faced the TV.
"Do you know that movie?"

"Um, no I don't... You?" She asked as they turned to the movie.

She hated the awkwardness, even though it was like that before, but now, they were actually getting along....

Hopefully it will stay that way...

he didn't know what to say. She was part of the reason why he changed himself but she wasn't the only reason. Also he felt like there was no way he could convince her that there is someone for her. he opened up he's arms to hug here "Poca come here" He said in a soft voice

"yes, until that sick man kidnapped me" she snapped and frowned. "Pictures, eh? But I guess you don't have a camera now?"

Pocahontas heard him, "No.." She shook her head no, keeping her back facing him. She wanted to be in his arm but, it knew it would mean she wouldn't want to leave.

Naveen kept on wondering off slowly then he noticed Helga's smile, he smiled back and starred at her for a moment 'How beautiful she is... how soft and shiny her skin is... how silky hair and those killer eyes...' he thought to himself, eventhough it wasn't the best time or place he wanted her, at that very moment he wanted her, all of her.

"Poca..." He's eyes where sad and remorseful. All he wanted to do was to make her feel better but it seemed like whatever he did it just made her more sad.

"No, I don't think so. I haven't watched that many movie with Jim Carrey."
He thought about it for a little while.
"It would be nice if he'd show movies like this on the TVs in the rooms. Y'know to have something to kill the time with. Though I guess you'd prefer a book instead."

Pocahontas stood there, wiping the tears that were falling. Hearing him say her name it hurt, "Don't..Pretend that you care.." She whispered very low and soft to herself.

"Mostly of nature," he said nonchalant.
But also of people I stalked...

[OOC: Going to bed now ^^ Sorry ^^'' 'Night!]

"Poca I do care... your my best friend... I just want to go back to how we used to be" He could feel a lump starting in the back of he's throat.

[Ooc, kay NIGHT! and creepy]
Snow White really wanted to leave as soon as she heard that, for some reason it rubbed her the wrong way. "Oh, that sounds great!" She said and looked around for someone to come to her rescue.

Pocahontas turned and looked at him, walking off slowly. She stopped in front of him, looking up at him, "I just can't turn off a switch and stop loving you...You made me fall for you..And now..I'm just falling, hoping one day.." The tears came slowly down her cheeks, "I can stop loving you..So we can go back to the way it was.." She walked off, crying as she went to the other side of the room.

he shed a tear as he watch her walk across. He was happy that he was wearing a masks so no one could see how upset he was.

Cinderella nodded. "A movie every now and then would be nice." She said, before she shrugged. "I do love a good book. But there isn't much of a selection here." She said. "I was reading a book earlier, it was pretty good. But not something I would read again." She stated.

"I see."
Sinbad had always hated reading. He couldn't see the appeal.
He followed the movie for a little while.
"How do you suppose things are going at home? I mean, it's been a while since any of us has been there."

Pocahontas calmed herself, looking around she heard Sinbad's voice. She sighed, walking to him, "Um..Hey, I just wanted to say..I'm sorry about punching you..I went too far." She spoke calmly, trying so hard not to break in front of him and Sinbad.

Thrax looked around the room to see if he could find somebody else he would know. As he looked he saw a someone standing by a short and tall figure sitting awkwardly next to each other. Thrax went up to talk to them standing closes to the short figure. "Hey I am Thrax and you are??"

Snow White looked up in relief and smiled as she recognized the voice, "Thrax, is that you?" She asked.

Thrax laughed a little "Yes its Thrax. Who am I talking to?"

Cinderella shrugged. "For all they know we went off on an extravagant vacation to actually fall for each other or something... " She said, grumbling.

She sighed. "I really do hope they're looking for us though... Boy, will they be in for a big surprise if we get out of here..."

She looked up at Pocahontas when she came over to them. She looked at Sinbad, waiting to see what he would say.

Snow White looked over at Joe and Helga, "Um it's me Snow White, how have you been?" She asked.

"I hope you are right.... I was wondering... Did you look for me when..." He was interupted by Pocahontas.
Sinbad looked up at her. He was silent or a little while.
Then he sighed.
"It's okay." It had probably seen weird that he suddenly just pushed Jasmine to the floor. It was udnerstandable. "It doesn't really matter."
