The Puppeteer<br/><br/>The reaction of Jenny had been a big disappointment and that she had run from all people to Jack was even more a disappointment. That guy would probably kill himself with his ridiculous tries to escape this house. She should have run to the new girl instead. He had a smile on his face, when he saw her reading one of the journal pages and then checking the other books. As she was alone in the library, maybe he should try to tell her what this was all about. And maybe he had to give her some more information than Jack and Jim, as she wasn't here intentionally. He pressed the button for the loudspeaker again.<br/><br/>"Hi again. Sorry that I didn't reply immediately on your last comment, I tried to make Jenny remember her past, but unfortunately failed again. Of course I will give you your belongings. You'll have them by tomorrow as my hands are only visiting the house by night, as you may know by your bad luck. I am sorry that you stumbled over them yesterday, I wished we could have avoided this, but I have to be very secretive about this house. You may learn why, if you find more of my journal pages."<br/><br/>His voice was warm and smooth. Strangely enough he had a very seductive voice, but of course he knew nothing about that, as he had never tried to flirt with a grown-up girl.<br/><br/>"I know that the situation is kind of shitty and I just hope that this extended stay here won't get you into any troubles outside of this house. If so, I will of course compensate your losses, money isn't an issue to me. There are actually two ways to leave this house. Either you find the keys to those numerous locks on the front door, which are all hidden inside this house or if you fail to find them, the other way would be a bodybag. There might be a slight chance that I open the door by myself for you, but I wouldn't count on that. I know this sounds cruel and maybe I am cruel, but I have not always been like that."<br/><br/>He paused for a second and looked at her face. She was beautiful in her own way and he liked her hair, it was suiting her very well.<br/><br/>"Let me explain, what all this is about. And as you shouldn't be here and you may want to get out of here quickly, I will give you some deeper insight. I have grown-up in this house, until a tragedy happened and then I had been absent for a long time. Everybody believes that I caused the tragedy, but I haven't. I need to find out who was really behind it, as I need to revenge somebody who was very dear to me. The answers have to be hidden in this house, they can't be anywhere else. Unfortunately this house is old and big and contains more secrets as anybody may believe. There had even been a ghost for some time in my youth. There are a lot of rooms who are currently locked, but the keys are in this house too. Search the open rooms, you will find pages of my journals, you may find photos from the past and you may find keys. For the rooms or the front door. If you manage to find all keys for the front door you are free to leave. Nobody will hold you back."<br/><br/>He giggled and continued in his soft voice.<br/><br/>"If you search hard enough, you may even find me, as I am in this house too. But I doubt it, I am well hidden. I just have one little extra plea. If you find any photos of a young girl, show them to Jenny. The same if you find any journal pages with the name Jenny in them. Let her read them. The poor girl has some amnesia and maybe it will help her to get over it. That's all for the moment from my side, do you have any questions to me?"
