It was very late in the afternoon, almost evening, and the walls of the labyrinth were so tall, they seemed to stretch on forever and ever and ever.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t like crust on my sandwiches,\u201d Woeful Child said, as if it were the most tragic thing in the world. Finn nodded her head in agreement. \u201cIt\u2019s an anagram\u2014the puzzle on the door. It\u2019s an anagram: banished then wiser. The answer is behind,\u201d Reader said. Finn nodded her head in agreement. Finn said, \u201cIf the ceiling breaks, but it\u2019s really the floor, what will happen?<\/p>\n

Will we still fall?\u201d The boy and the child said nothing, did not even nod their heads in agreement. They came to a courtyard full of stone women, each with a plaque at their feet. The one that read FAIRNESS stepped down from her platform and took Finn\u2019s face in her hands and kissed her full on the lips\u2014 \u201cFinn,\u201d a voice whispered. The mattress dipped beneath a new weight as someone climbed beneath the covers and curled up beside her. Hair tickled her cheek, and she smelled vanilla and Ivory bar soap.<\/p>\n

A hand grasped Finn\u2019s, warm and soft. \u201cI\u2019m sorry,\u201d a voice whispered. It sounded like her sister\u2019s. \u201cS\u2019alright . . .\u201d Finn murmured back, not bothering to open her eyes, already slipping back into unconsciousness. \u201cNo, you don\u2019t understand,\u201d the voice that sounded like her sister\u2019s said.<\/p>\n

There was dirt smudged across her cheeks, and the skirt of her white ball gown was torn and tattered.<\/p>\n

Blood had crusted beneath her fingernails. She slammed the door closed behind her and thrust the key into the lock, listening for the CLICK. The rest of the house was silent except for the chime of the grandfather clock. One . . . Two . . . Three . . . Her skirts billowed around her as she slumped to the hardwood floor. She peeled the slippers from her feet and flung them to the other end of the hall. . . . Four . . . Five . .<\/p>\n

. Six . . . She closed her eyes and breathed deeply through her nose, trying to steady her heartbeat. She could feel it all the way down in the tips of her fingers. . . . Seven . . . Eight . . .<\/p>\n

Nine . . . The world still felt like it was spinning, \u2019round and \u2019round and \u2019round. She ran her tongue over the back of her teeth and tasted blackberry wine and dirt. . . . Ten . . . Eleven . . . Twelve . . . She counted the clock chimes under her breath; only a few hours had passed in her own world.<\/p>\n
