"Now you sit over here quietly....." Ment threw Billie in a dungeon.
"D.....d....on....don't lea...ve...me..." she tried to speak.
"Guess I've hit you pretty badly, you aren't even able to speak....." laughed Ment.
Billie tried to get up but the pain didn't let her and she fell back on the floor. Ment came towards her and tied her hands and feet, she had already passed out again.
"Now you will pay for what you have done!" he growled and left the dungeon.
------------------------------------
"Explain yourself Ment!" Ferso was really angry.
"It wasn't my fault gramps! It was all that bitch Billie...." he sighed.
"Billie couldn't have done such a thing, it must have been you." shouted Jackie.
"JACKIE! STAY QUIET..." Ferso warned him.
"But Gramps...." Jackie tried to speak.
"If you speak another word, I'll send you to dungeon too. You are not supposed to speak between our conversation, it has nothing to do with you...You UNDERSTANG?" Ferso gave Jackie scary look.
"Y...yes" Jackie sighed.
"Now...you tell me, how can you blame it over to Billie?" Ferso looked at Ment.
"She was the one who said that Emma's biggest fear is failure, it wasn't me..." Ment tried to explain.
"Weren't you with her all the time? Shouldn't you have noticed if she was wrong?" Ferso asked.
"Indeed I had noticed it, even though the actions of Emma had declared failure as her biggest fear but it wasn't confirmed. I asked Billie to confirm it once but she was too greedy for the money and she wanted to wrap up everything as soon as possible...." Ment explained the whole thing.
"She is still a masterpiece.... we can't feed her to the tree! What shall we do?" Ferso asked the jury.
"Can we give her another chance?" asked Stree.
"It's Margot's choice, not ours.......we shall do something that doesn't involves Margot." said Deeton, another mizu.
"But there is nothing which doesn't involves Margot, its all her rules." said Sally.
"Lady Margot is on her deathbed, we shall not disturb her." said Ferso.
"Then we can wait for her to die and then give Billie another chance....." Stree said.
"How can you say such cruel thing about her? She's our lord!" shouted Ment.
"Shut up and sit down! It is jury's decision, not yours AND we all know that she is going to die soon, she has lived a long life already, that isn't something cruel...." Ferso growled at him.
"I can go and ask Lady Margot myself, it is a great decision and we must ask her!" said Sally. "It will be totally inappropriate to wait for her to die."
"I think you are right, after all you are one of her own family, she won't mind you asking her." said Deeton.
"So it has been decided! Sally will ask Lady Margot about Billie and Ment will be sent to dungeon for next two thousand years as rule number 3648 of Mizu's rule book." announced Ferso.
"But it wasn't even my fault, I had already told you that don't involve me if something bad happens!" shouted Ment but everyone left the room, ignoring her.
He sat there helplessly on the floor and started cursing Billie but that would not bring any help to him. Soon, the guards entered the room and took Ment to the dungeon.

FEW DAYS LATER
"Hi Emma!" called Jack.
"Oh hey Jack! How are you and how's your mum?" Emma smiled.
"She's really well now and she is very thankful to you.... and that's why she invited you to our house...." Jack was blushing.
"Oh that's so kind of her, when shall I arrive?" Emma asked excitedly.
"Tonight please....." Jack said shyly.
"Why are you talking to the floor?" laughed Emma. " Come on! look into my eyes, will ya? you don't need to be sooo thankful to me that you can't even look into my eyes."
"No, it's not that.....its just...." Jack twisted his fingers.
"Then what is it?" Emma got curious.
"Wi.....Will you date me?" Jack gathered all his strength and pulled out a rose from his pocket.
"U.....uh......." Emma wasn't expecting this.
"Its okay if you say no, I've always been a trouble to you and I already owe you..." sighed Jack sadly.
"No.....no.....it's not like that! I just got a little nervous...it would be a pleasure to date you and who said you have been a trouble to me......" smiled Emma.
"YOU WILL DATE ME??" Jack got excited.
"Yup, I will..." Emma took the rose and kissed Jack on his cheek.
"Th....tha..n.......thank you..." Jack blushed again.
"I never knew you had a shy side too....." giggled Emma.
"Oh....ye....yeah......." he was really nervous.
"Okay bye, now I'll see you tonight..." smiled Emma and took her bag.
"See ya..." smiled Jack too.
"Bye byeeeee...." Emma waved at him, leaving the class.
"Bye....." he said softly.
