Shiro was still outside of the tunnel.His mouth and nose were covered by one of the men from Deaths Workers. "Tell her to keep crawling and make up a good reason for it." the man whispered to Shiro "The girl will be killed right now if you don't do exactly as I say."Shiro nodded and his mouth was uncovered.Shiro said in the calmest voice he could "L-lissa.Just keep on crawling.I have to go find something I forgot.It's back up in the room.Don't worry.I'll come back" Shiro closed his eyes terrifyed of what they were up to.Lissa started to slowly crawl again but tears were still running down her cheeks."Good Boy." The man said to Shiro and quickly jumped into the air and appeared outside."How did you do that?!" Shiro yelled."Shush!" The man said to Shiro.Shiro looked around seeing a truck with a big square on it."Whats that?" he asked the guy."That is the room that the tunnel is leading to..."He replyed."Your kidnappiung my sister!?" Shiro yelled again.The man sighed and put tape over Shiros mouth "I tried to tell ya kid." The man put his hand on the ground and a blue circle came into place.He put shiro in the circle and stood watching the box.A bunch of clanking was heard and then the man touched the box.On a screen inside the box was the mans face looking in at Lissa."Hello Lissa.You are trapped in one of our high containment boxes.They were specially made so you children couldn't break out.So don't even try to use your sacred power...Don't feel alone lissa.We have your brother with us" he stepped out of the way so Shiro could be seen.Lissa sat in the metal box staring at the screen crying for Shiro.The screen turned off and Shiro was packed into a truck with the man that captured him.
They spent 30minutes in the truck."Are there yet?" Shiro said in a bored voice."It will be a little while more child." The man driving spoke.Shiro leaned backwards and saw a copy of the cloakmans journal in a compartment."Can I see that really quick?" Shiro asked the Driver."Sure kid.That stuff is healthy for you" The driver said quietly.Shiro Took the book and opened it.He searched then stopped seeing something of intrest and he read over it.

The Sacred Children always look up to highers.
They shall obey the highers as if they are robots when a special word is read from the Journal.
This word is Death.
Be sure not to over use it or the sacred children will kill you.

Entry 23
of the Cloakmans journal


Shiro closed the book and looked up at the man sitting next to him."Don't worry kid.We've read the whole journal and know it by heart.You tested on entry 23..." The man laughed.Shiro opened the book and slowly looked through the pages for a specific Entry.Entry 83.

Humans are stupid and you must accept that.
The Cloakman shall reign over all.
If you choose to step back.
You will be treated with disrespect and you will be killed.
Wether you be a child or the king.
You will not disrespect the cloakman.

Entry 83
of The Cloakman's Journal


Shiro closed the book and set it back in the compartment.He leaned over against the Man and sighed.
When they reached thier destination The man took Shiro out of the truck and went around near the Back a few feet to the left of the box they were keeping Lissa in.The back of the box opened and the man immeaditaly put a freeze circle around Shiro's Feet.Shiro couldn't move his arms or legs but he could still talk and move his head.The man then walked into the box and woke up Lissa who had fallen asleep on the way.The Box that belonged to Shiro was wrapped in her arms tightly and stained with tears.Lissa walked out of the Box with her mouth taped over with tape and her hands behind her back with a special built thingy that was ment to stop them from doing any crazy stuff.As soon as Lissa's Eyes caught sight of Shiro she tried to pull away from the man.You could hear screams of terror from behind the tape.The Man grabbed Lissas arm and pulled her back tword the entrance and Shiro could say nothing,The Man who drove the truck joined shiro and held his hand up making the circle dissappear.The man started for the exit and Shiro followed."I don't understand why none of you make me walk like you do to Lissa." The man smiled from beneath his high necked jacket."Child, I saw you read Entry 23.and the command word death doesn't change you when I say it.Like if I just said Death and your started being my pet.No.What the cloakman means by the word death can control the sacred children is that I can say.I'm going to Kill Lissa tonight." Shiro forced a fist and then it went away."See...That's what I mean.Even when you know I'm kidding you will try and kill me." Shiro looked at his hand and then looked to the end of the hall.Lissa and the man turned into a room."So why are we here?Why did you guys kidnap us?" Shiro looked up at the driver."You read Entry 83 why do you ask such silly questions.Deaths Workers is a rebellion against the cloakman.We have stepped back from the cloakman and do not wish to worship him.This is where we can help Planet." Shiro looked at the ground "So you kidnapped us to show the cloakman a lesson.Your going to Destroy Planet..." The Man Turned and opened a door."No.If Planet ends then the cloakman will start again.According to Entry 307 The Cloakman just creates new world everytime people don't listen and the destroy it.He's just a child.That keeps breaking down his tower and starting again." Shiro walked into the room and sat in a chair infront of a table."Then why does-" he was cut off by the driver."Child please do not think we are bad people.We are trying to help." He then Shut the door and the lights went out.Shiro sat in pure darkness.A bright Light turned on and shiro squinted up at a screen with a person that wore a robe so you couldn't see his face."Shiro Highland. You are a sacred child.We have taken you in for your own good. We are going to save your Life from the cloakmans Lies if you Help us." Shiro Nodded slowly "Can I quit?" he said loudly."Anytime you please Shiro." the voice replyed "But you and your sister will be reunited every five days.We have to break the Cloakmans Laws." Shiro was sad hearing this "Yes Sir..." he said quietly."This will be your Room.Number 3067.your sister is in the room next to you, 3066.Please forgive me for anything you dislike." Shiro looked at the table infront of him."I will let you get used to your room in the comfort with your sister." the screen turned off and the wall behind the screen slid down reveling his sister standing in the middle of the room with the table tipped over and the chair upsidedown against the wall.Shiro ran over tword his sister and she did the same.She stopped half way seeing Shiro stop and fall to the ground.Lissa walked over and held her hand out noticing a piece of glass seperateing the rooms.Lissa started to tear again."No no no!Lissa!" shiro begged "Don't cry.It makes me feel horrible when you cry!!" Lissa layed against the glass and slid to the ground.Shiro pressed himself against the glass and started to tear trying not to cry.He felt like he hadn't seen his sister for days."Lissa I love you!Please just don't loose it.Everythings going to be fine and these people are going to try and save you and me!" a tear ran down his face "Don't cry lissa!" Lissa looked at shiro and opened her mouth but nothing came out.Lissa put her hand on her throat.Shiro was shocked "Lissa?" shiro said "Lissa?!" Shiro stood up and ran over to the door trying to open it "Lissa hold on!" Lissa put a hand on the floor to keep herself up.A man came to Shiros door and opened it up.Shiro ran out the door and over to the next room trying to open the door."You open the door or I'll destroy this building." Shiro looked at the guy who opened the door. The man walked over and grabbed Shiro "You won't Destroy the building.Now back into your room." Shiro grabbed the man and knocked him over."My sister is in trouble and if she dies I will rip your heart out." Shiro started banging on the door yelling through it "Lissa hold on I'm going to get in." Shiro Took the key from the guy and jammed one into the door and opened it.He ran over to Lissa who was lying on the floor infront of the glass.He picked he up and held her close.The screen in Lissa's room turned out."Shiro you naughty Child.I told you not to make this hard for me." The man said to him."My sister...Somethings wrong with her!" he said to the man."And the nurse will take care of her."A woman walked in with a syringe and a man followed behind her.The man lifted Lissa from Shiro's arms and the nurse scooted Him out of the room.The man put lissa on the table.Shiro walked back to his room with a blank face."They don't care..." he said to himself."If Lissa dies then they won't care." Shiro closed the door and a man locked it from outside.He pressed himself up against the glass and stared at Lissa with his blank look."She'll be fine Child." said the man that had captured him in the mansion."My Name is Shiro..." Shiro put his hand on the glass and turned his head slightly to look back at the man."You can call me 3067.Xevan for short." he replyed.Shiro's face was covered in tears and his eyes were still lifeless."Shiro..."Xeven said "Your sister will be fine.Nothing is going to happen to her.You're here because we want you to live." Shiro nodded and looked back at lissa his hand turning into a fist as pain was seen in his eyes when they put the needle into Lissa's Arms."Vour already told you about the Death control right?Well what you are experiencing now is the Pain Control.The pain control is worse than the death control.Because I know you would rather your sister die then go through so much Pain." Xeven nodded and put his hand on Shiro's Shoulder."You have to learn to control both of these problems Shiro."Shiro shook his head and wiped his face over his arm "Are there anymore controls you didn't tell me about." Shiro said quietly."Yes Shiro.The worst control of all three.It is over 7 times worse than the Pain Control." Shiro looked up at Xeven "The Sadness Control... and you've taken care of that too.Everything you say in thsi room.Even in the smallest whisper is recorded and heard By the Highest.When you see your sister cry your mind turns off and You loose control until you know everything is okay.When your sister feels better you click back to your normal self and you have no memory of the time you lost control." Xeven looked down at Shiro and walked tword the door."Shiro it's been an hour and that means there are only 5 days till the next time you see your sister." Shiro looked back at the glass to his sister and then the wall appeared again "Try your hardest to deal with it okay?" Xeven said and he walked out of the room.Shiro turned around so his back was against the wall.He felt like nothing was left.All he could do to help him or his sister was face anything Deaths Workers could throw at him.His eyes started to droop and he slid down to the floor.Looking up at a clock on the wall he read 5:30 am Shiro fell over and was asleep.
