Third was mostly aware of it due to his sensitivity to being in the sea to begin with, but any less pressure there was was good for Third. After a moment, Third's eyes flashed around looking for the next piece as his mind refocused again. How long he would be able to keep this up, he had no idea, but something told him there was some sort of time limit. Looking down farther into the sea below, he could see nothing but darkness. For a brief moment, Third shivered unsure of why his skin was crawling the way it was then and there, yet every part of him wanted to swim back to the surface right then and there.
Another glint caught Third's eye, but as he turned towards it, it suddenly came charging at him with a ravenous speed. Knocked hard in the stomach, Third flinched back briefly before his eyes focused on exactly what was before him- a large purple shark-like creature had just rammed him and had taken off in a different direction. "Shit it's coming back," Third hissed before making a directional point downwards before starting to swim as fast as he could.

BJ damn you... he mentally swore. This was because BJ was the host wasn't it? That there was this much tension... this much sickening feeling. As Victoria reached out for the sphere, it made to scald her again, yet if her hand managed to seal around it, it would go dormant in an instant becoming like the others had before it.

For a brief moment he was unable to think, but as Victoria shouted, his entire body went ridged. This woman.... was.... It was only in that moment that Third realized he could 'breathe', and suddenly despite the still wailing calls, he was able to better control himself. This water wasn't like physical water... It was... all mental. He should have realized that before hand... and yet he hadn't... It was still suffocating in the bombardment, but being able to breathe was something calming at least. "Sorry..." was the murmur that escaped after.
The sphere of light did not change from its position but instead seemed to remain floating where it was undaunted by the fact that someone had tried to touch it. It remained where it was making questionable then how long it had been there...

CASSI WHERE ARE YOU? SOMEONE HELP! the screams only continued on, and Third was starting to grow disoriented. It was too much. This damn thing was too much. He knew he shouldn't have gone in, damn it all. Wrapping a hand around his mouth, Third continued to hold his breath as best he could despite the ringing in his ears. He had to stay conscious. This was a voice graveyard, but he had to stay alive.
As Victoria touched the sphere it seared and scorched. Shortly after that, reasoning broke, and Third felt himself shattering. 'NO!' was the wail from Third that somehow managed to vibrate the 'water' before stopping. I can't do this..... Third thought dryly to himself. Reason cannot....defeat this emotion.... |

I'm scared... I'm scared... Someone.. anyone help me! Make it go away! Make it stop! The sounds of the voice made Third cringe. He hated hearing BJ like that and knew too damn well that BJ hated hearing it in himself. Yet there it was the fears and things he could never get over. It was sickening to say the least of it. If his lips had not been closed, Third would have vomited. As they kept swimming, sure enough both drew close to the sphere of light much like the others. For a brief moment, Third reached out for it only to recoil at the sheer heat of it. It burned, damn it BJ!
If Victoria reached out for it, she would catch a glimpse of something that was less than the happy experiance that had been seen earlier to say the least of it. The memory was of Atticus's study, a rather rich looking room with a large desk and chair sitting behind it. Book shelves liked the walls... and blood lined the bookshelves. It would then focus on the floor of the room, dead bodies lined the room here and there, and screaming vibrated the air. Yet before any more could play out, the memory was silenced and ended prematurely.

If they didn't bring BJ back there would be trouble, but if they went down there, there could be more trouble. After a moment, Third shut his eyes and came to a decision. "Fine...I'll help you then," he replied before stepping towards the edge and staring down into the basin of vast nothingness. Somewhere in the pit of his own part of the consciousness, he was aware of the fact that he could die a lot easier than Victoria could, yet it was for BJ for the life he had made despite all their own arguments. It was BJ's life, and no one else's. No one in the mind but Third recognized that more After a brief moment, he looked sideways at Victoria. "You coming?" he mumbled weakly before looking back down. Damn it all if he wasn't a coward....Shutting his eyes, Third stepped forwards and then sprung out down into the water.
Almost instantly as he touched, Third was aware of the mass amount of pressure, and almost instantly he felt his will breaking down from it. Fear, anger, hate, disgust, all the things BJ disliked about himself and all the emotions he didn't ever want to feel were crashing down on Third, and twisting around in the water was all Third could do to keep it from instantly crushing him. I'm scared... Cassi where are you... Don't let Atticus die... Stop it! I don't understand! ... Damn it Ripper! Go away! No! I don't want to lose them! Stop killing people! I'm scared... scared of myself.. the words of BJ burned through Third, and he twitched in the water forcing himself to swim deeper. Farther down, something was shimmering...

For a few seconds, there was some legitimate concern on his features before it vanished behind a mask of indifference. "I wouldn't suggest it," was all that Third replied back with before crossing his arms and shaking his head somberly. "It's suffocating ...though not in the way of water drowning... BJ separated it himself in order to keep his own consciousness in tact and the things he never wanted to address away from his mind... A few have entered, but none have returned. Ripper for instance was forced and buried there..."A sigh escaped from Third after that.

"They've been coming out from the depths of the sea," he replied sighing after a moment and moving his hand back. "But it is very dangerous to go into such a place even for me and any of the others in here. It is the deepest level of BJ's mind...and it is ...more or less ......Ripper's graveyard," he explained with a somber expression. What exactly he meant by graveyard Third was not ready to explain just then and there. It could easily have meant the memories of Ripper's deeds or maybe the place of the voice's final sealing during the instance of the Blood Bath. Third was not ready to tell just yet.. a few minutes... maybe even a few more seconds was still enough time to wrap himself together and prepare to explain or so he thought, anyways.

A part of him was irritated at her choice of words to rebuke him with, but another part was more surprised and intrigued that she would argue against such things that she scarcely understood. There were things BJ would always keep to himself, things that were locked away for a reason. Third doubted those would ever truly be resolved no matter what happened. This woman just didn't seem to logically understand that.
As Victoria tried to put the fragments of memory together, a sudden rush would go through her as the memories themselves began to reveal more information. The first scene played out again but rather than cut off, a different scene followed. "Jack what are you doing?" a voice would call, and almost instantly Jack's head darted one direction towards the voice. Standing not too far off was a young woman who resembled Jack with the same purple hair and purple eyes. "Daddy's going to be angry at you again for upsetting the maids," Cassandra frowned folding her arms together and tapping her toe. Jack's face briefly reflected a hurt expression before growing into something more amused.
"Only if you don't tell him," was all that was replied back before Jack suddenly got to his feet and made to tackle his twin who squeaked out startled and flailed a bit.
"Jack let go! Jaaaack!" a complaining voice hit the air, but the name bearer didn't seem to reply back and instead just made to hold her down there on the floor.
"You gotta promise not to tell," was the order that was given after a moment. However, before the scene finished completely, it stopped again as the other had. It was only a fragment after all. However, after that, the two pieces seemed to fall into place and became one bit of a bigger piece.
Third's eyes grew startled by the transition, and for a few seconds, he was without words. However, after a moment, he simply looked away down into the depths again. There didn't appear to be any more fragments coming up just yet, sigh...
After a moment, Third's eyes moved away and instead redirected themselves towards the sea of sorts below. [/scrolly] | [atrb=style,width:154;border:0 black none;] | [atrb=style,border:0 black none;][atrb=height,27][cs=3] |

"They're more like mismatched puzzle pieces than anything..." the voice sighed dryly unsure of how to explain it any other way than that. "Maybe putting them in order or something, but that would take too long...." he sighed once more.

A kiddie BJ could be seen running through a rather elaborate house as a swarm of women chased after him calling his familiar nickname 'Black Jack'. They were irritated to say the least of it. However, the young boy just laughed hysterically as he ran. Soon enough, he ducked behind a cabinet which allowed him to escape from the women who ran past not seeing him. In an instant the memory faded away after that.
Third sighed softly staring down at the fragments of memory. He had already observed it and already recognized the scene. It was a time before Ripper, before himself. It was a time when BJ was a free child able to do what he wanted with Atticus not minding too much and his sister sometimes helping with the pranking. "There are a few of them foating around... they're easy to spot..." he explained dryly.

He would not want a stranger in his head, damn it. As Victoria asked if he knew where they should start, the younger looking Jack simply nodded before turning and holding out his hands. Up from the darker depths, light purple almost white spheres began to float up. "Unlike the rest of us, BJ's mind is easy to detect..." Third sighed before turning around his hands 'holding' a sphere of light that twitched and twisted about just above his finger tips. "Care to take a look?" was the dry question that was asked. If Victoria reached her hand out, the sphere would jump to her and she would probably see something interesting...

He had not been able to stop the onslaught into the sanctuary that was BJ's mind, but rather than rage at Victoria, he decided to do what he could about the situation- stay calm and figure it out. She was here to find BJ wasn't she? Third was sure she cared as he had seen. At least the redhead hadn't come with her. That would have been more trouble.... "Victoria," he stated before slowly forcing himself up to stand and stretch. "You forced your way in despite my lack of consent. You jerk," he sighed dryly before smirking a little at his own words.

Third continued to protest. He didn't want this. He... he was afraid! However, in another moment, a pressure came to his head, and suddenly all consciousness left him. BJ's body fell back on the bed completely at peace again whether he wanted it or not. The moment Victoria's consciousness had left her, her body seemed to sink to the floor. Almost instantly Nathan stepped forwards to catch her in order to keep her from hitting her head. Sighing softly, he picked up the woman and sat her down in a chair. Amina continued her psychic power never once allowing the bond to break. Ah what will happen next... Nathan thought amused as he sat down then and folded his arms.
The darkness that was the mind of BJ was evident all around. What appeared to be the sky high above was nothing but a distilled grey, and if Victoria looked out and below her, she would see the grey only darkening into what appeared to be an expansive sea that almost appeared to have no bottom. Floating all around appeared to be ledges and things where light purple spheres floated here and there. From the spheres quiet voices spoke here and there exchanging thoughts and the like unaware of the new intruder. However, sitting on a ledge not far off appeared to be a young version of Black Jack Spade.
Dressed in a simple but disoriented black and white suit with the tie tied, Third sat there on the ledge. His features were younger than Jack's expressing a youth that the man didn't have any longer.

Third was growing rapidly uncomfortable. He wanted to get out and get away as fast as possible, but his body certainly wasn't letting that happen any time soon. What these people were trying to do were extract information out of him. His reasoning was sure of it. Even at Victoria's rebuke stating that they were trying to help and that she no longer cared what he thought, Third was still on edge.
Nathan, however, slowly smirked a little more than amused by the turn of events. The few times he had met with Victoria were nothing in comparison to the strength of her argument now. He would make note of it and work around the information with it later. However, for now there was work to be done. A brief chuckle escaped from Nathan. "Very up front are we... well then, Amina how about we help out?" Nathan asked looking towards the Gardevoir who was already ready to do work. Third's entire body trembled a little at the proposition and words that seemed to contradict his wishes in the extreme. Damn it all there was nothing he could do!
As Victoria released her Gothitelle, Amina blinked surprised by the offer of help. Nathan didn't have many mature psychics, and thus she worked mostly by herself on such matters. To have help was... obscure... but maybe she could do something. 'We will need to sync minds... can you help me do that?' the Gardevoir asked. Regardless of what was said, Amina began to start drawing up psychic power. This would certainly be interesting.
"S-stop!" Third barked his entire body shaking a little.
However, psychic power was suddenly released, and Victoria's mind synched with Jack's. In an instant, a tunnel like scenario would play out before Victoria found herself in a black abyss.

The startled look that wrapped Third's face up in wrinkles was enough to reveal the sheer level of confusion and disdain that was in him at the very thought of anyone entering his mind whether it was Nathan, the Gardevoir, or even Victoria for that matter. Like hell he wanted someone in his head... er... BJ's head. That was just asking for trouble on all levels, and he already had a mild phobia of BJ's psychic pokemon for one reason or another. There was no way that he was willing to agree with this. "No," he snapped back doing his best to sit up and look intimidating despite the fact that the pain in his chest caused him to flinch and lay back down all too soon.
Nathan looked from Victoria to Jack as the prior spoke first followed by the latter. A thumb raised itself and set on the redhead's lips as he thought about what had been said. Amina would you even be able to do something like that? was the mental question that came straight to Amina. The Gardevoir hesitated unsure of how she wanted to reply. Gathering up what she knew, she closed her eyes and projected a thought back. 'I could...but I don't know how stable it would be...link wise..' she mused before frowning and opening her eyes again. After a moment, Nathan crossed his arms. "Amina, my wife, knows how to do something to that effect...though how well it would go.." Nathan started.
"Did you not hear me? I said no," Third snapped back.

Third could feel his heart pounding in his neck. Should he tell. Would this man be able to do anything anyways? There was a considerable amount of doubt, but Nathan had said he was doing it for his own selfish reasons anyways which Third could believe in a heart beat. However, the redhead could still use this to his advantage later somehow, damn it all... Victoria's words caught Third's ears, and his eyes shifted to the woman as she explained more or less what Third had explained. The voice sighed as very little was explained in retrospect, and after a moment he shut his eyes. "I have managed to gather up memories that belong to him in the front of this mind, but I can't put any pieces back together," he admitted feeling his muscles tighten at just the thought of saying such a thing out loud.
Nathan meanwhile was dead silent as Victoria spoke taking the information in with a particularly careful expression. There was some sympathy in those grey eyes though whether they were faked or not was questionable at best. After a moment, his expression shifted, and his stance moved more in the door as he started to walk farther inwards. "I see," the redhead said calmly as he came to a stop not too far from the bed then. "I have never heard of such a thing... However, I have dealt with minds before," he stated before folding his arms in front of himself. Almost instantly after that, a light shimmered taking the form of a Gardevoir beside him. Having waited out of sight until Nathan's mental call just then, Amina had teleported herself in after that. "A psychic pokemon should be able to enter the mind of someone," Nathan stated calmly.
Third's eyes grew large, and his body went tense. "No," he snapped rather quickly. "There are things in this mind meant for no one," he spoke promptly.

Vicki's words caused Nathan's head to shift slightly as his grey eyes wandered over her form carefully before looking forwards and focusing more on Third. "The same thing the both of you want, Jack Spade to be himself," was the simple explanation that was given. The color in Third's face was slowly starting to come back again, and the unnerved expression had settled into something calmer. Upon seeing this, Nathan smiled a bit. "No offense, Third was it?, but I have investments that rely on the complete mental stability of Mr. Spade."
Third breathed in a little calmly as a slow smirk came to his features. "You have something in mind?" was the flat statement that was given back. A curl of Nathan's lips answered the question. "Then say it already."
"So pushy...but anyways, I need you to explain to me the entire situation as it is now," Nathan stated dryly. Third's eyes widened, and once more he felt his blood pressure go through the roof. He didn't want to speak about it just as much as BJ didn't want to speak about it. However, if there was a possibility of it being changed- the situation, rather- it was for the best... but....

"Indeed..." Third sighed dryly shutting on eye unable to find any other words to speak of. There was nothing more to say or so he felt anyways.
"And that is where you're both wrong," a voice stated causing Third's entire body to go on edge. Faster than he should have, Third's head jutted sideways staring at the door where a red haired man was now leaning looking more bemused than anything. For a brief moment, Third's face paled his complexion dying at the realization that someone had overheard. Why the hell had no one told him that there was someone else in the room? What in-- "Amina had always had a feeling of such but I'd never had any more proof than this...but from what you just said..." Nathan said calmly as he stepped in. "You are not Black Jack," Nathan smiled dryly. Third's lip twitched, and a surprising amount of panic jumped into his blood. That was BJ's secret, damn it all. Why did this... This wasn't good... "I advise you to stay calm. If your blood pressure shoots up, your arteries could burst," Nathan sighed before shaking his head.

It was uncanny how this woman seemed to recognize him, but he didn't put much effort into acting anything like BJ anyways. It wasn't his place to. That being said, it was surprising just how much he was like BJ in that regard. Anyways, there was work to be done. "I've gathered up as many fragments as I can though most are simply memories..." he sighed blandly shaking his neck a little only then to feel the seething pain that his strained nerves sang. "And it is not enough for me to do anything with them..." he sighed shutting his eyes briefly before opening them.
