Too quiet, but that was not unusual early in the morning. The place where the house was located - away from the outside world - made it even quieter. Only the birds could be heard as daylight started creeping slowly through the windows. The crows and other birds, as well. But for some reason, crows were always on the roof, being heard day and night.<br/><br/>The night before, new boxes with canned food and other non-perishables had been delivered in the kitchen. It was always done while everyone was asleep, and so quietly that nobody could tell exactly who brought the boxes and how. At least, they wouldn't have to starve in there. <span style="font-weight: bold">Jack</span>, one of the Firewood brothers, said the maniac owner of the house would probably set the house on fire or kill them all in any other way, so there was no need to starve them. His brother <span style="font-weight: bold">Jim</span> was of the opinion that they would all be set free one day. <span style="font-weight: bold">Jenny</span>, the girl who acted as an unofficial housekeeper, was content enough just living there. She seemed to have forgotten the time where she had been free.<br/><br/>The Nishiyamas, <span style="font-weight: bold">Rai</span> and <span style="font-weight: bold">Chizuru</span>, had their own opinions on the master of the house and their situation, as did <span style="font-weight: bold">Alex</span>. And of course, their opinions weren't all that important, now were they? As long as they did what was expected - which was... whatever the <span style="font-weight: bold">Puppeteer</span> expected of them. For now, all they had to do was to survive and take it one day at a time. In <span style="font-weight: bold">Jim</span>'s opinion, they should do as they were told. <span style="font-weight: bold">Jack</span> believed they should escape or die trying. Which one of the brothers was right, only time would tell... if they survived to hear the tale.</div>
