The fire has almost burnt the house down
Fred
*losing consciousness *
Baby Alice

Fred and Fiona die due to the smoke and flames...
Eventually the fire dies down

*Takes Alice to an Orphanage and drops her there*
Simon
(Umf. This place is getting stuffy... It's been too long. Maybe I should get out...)
Simon
(gets out and sees the wreck) Oh No! *Gasps* *starts crying* No... No! What have they done?!!!!
Simon
Daddy!! Mommy!! Sister!! No!! NO!!!
Simon
Simon *slaps himself* Stop crying! Daddy told you to protect the Pearl. What are you doing here?!
Simon
*sighs* *still crying* (Gets the pearl and hides it in his coat)
Alice's Caretaker
*In the streets* Alice! Where are you?
Older Simon
Huh?! Alice? *gets flashbacks* Is...is that sister? Could it be that she's alive... or is it just another person named Alice...?
Older Simon
I need to check!
Alice
*looks at Simon who is staring at her* Oh ... Hi 🙂
Older Simon
... Hi! Can I talk to your Aunt?
Alice
Oh yeah! She's actually my Caretaker...
Older Simon
Oh... I see...
Alice's Caretaker
Hi Alice! Oh, who's this?
Older Simon
I'm Simon... I'd like to talk to you.
Alice's Caretaker
Huh? Okay... Alice, you can play around for a bit.
Alice's Caretaker
Okay. First, Do I know you?
Older Simon
No... you don't. I wanted to confirm something... how did you meet Alice? Where is her family...?
Alice's Caretaker
Oh. I met Alice in an Orphanage. Apparently she survived a fire as a baby. I took her in, and her parents adopted her.
Older Simon
!!! Alice! My sister!
Alice's Caretaker
Excuse me?! What?
Older Simon
Oh. I believe I'm her brother. I lost her 10 years ago when our house burnt and she was not there. I thought she didn't survive!
Alice's Caretaker
I see. I'll let you talk to her. She is still a young girl. Talk to her gently...
Alice's Caretaker
Alice! Come here!
Alice's Caretaker
This gentleman wants to talk to you... I'll let you talk for a moment.
Older Simon
So... I don't know how to break this to you... but I might be your brother...
Alice
Huh? I have a brother? But why are you so old?
Older Simon
😅 I'm only 24. Anyway, if I'm right, you have a moon symbol on your left shoulder. Yes?
Alice
Huh?! Yes! How did you know?!
Older Simon
Because I've known you in the past...during the incident. I believe that you know about it... Do you know?
Alice
Yes I do... but I never got to meet our parents! *sobs*
Older Simon
*comforts her* they were great people...
The siblings catch up on the lost time. Alice decides to move in with her brother to the Celeste Tower, floor number 56.
~The siblings are walking together near their home~
Older Simon
-and that's how I have the pearl...
Alice
Woah! It's like a story out of a fairy tale! To think that Chelsia herself handed over the pearl to Mom and Dad!
Older Simon
And you know what *whispers* I always have the pearl with me! It seems to ward off evil! And I can protect it that way too!
Alice
Woah! Shhh. You know Walls have ears too!
Older Simon
Ahhhhh! What is happening? How can you attack me without even touching me?!! Huh?! Why can't I use my power? It's like something is restraining me!
Older Simon
Alice!! *Get the Pearl!!*
Alice takes the pearl from Simon's pocket and escapes through a small space!
Alice
*Huff* *Brother! Be safe!!*
Meanwhile, They attacked Simon and left him to die on the road.
After a while, Alice comes back-
Alice
Brother... please be safe...! I can't lose you too!
Alice
Brother!!! *runs* Oh No! There's a lot of Blood!
Alice
*kneels* *checks pulse* No brother! Don't do this to me!! Brother!!!
Alice
*weeps* No! This can't be happening!! NOOOO!!!
Alice had hidden the Pearl in the hidden compartment since she couldn't find a better place to hide it in
That was when the 4 men and 1 woman attacked her in the Celeste Tower, on the 56th Floor
