In the school library (S1 Ep.11-2)
Elizabeth: Thank you for the help, it means a lot to me. Could we set up some sessions? I am more than willing to pay you for the trouble.
Rose: Oh, you don't have to! I take the time to study, too.
Elizabeth: Seriously, I will not feel good if you do not accept. With your ongoing project... I’m sorry! I couldn't help overhearing your conversation with Joan. Don't worry, I know how to keep a secret as well as she.
Did you ever feel that the person in front of you want to say something, but don’t do it directly? Throw these tips, hit the subject for a few times, instigating your curiosity, making you suspect something that isn't there, however, instead of saying what she wants to say, expects for you to ask?! Well, I was with that feeling, the difference is that in this case, I knew that Joan was hiding something. And suspected that "something" was serious, that she needed my help. In a way the game that Elizabeth was playing, Joan did it, too. Though, when I asked Joan about the subject, she did not open up to me. Unlike Elizabeth, which was more willing than I could imagine to tell.
Rose: Elizabeth, if you want to tell me something, go ahead.
Elizabeth: Okay! I'm going to cut to the chase. Like you, I also have a dream and I respect you for the work and effort you have dedicated to the conquest of yours, but mine is a little more complicated to carry out.
Rose: I don’t doubt but with work, dedication and willpower it is not impossible. - I was thinking it would be to pass math class, the drama of some teenagers. Ya, right!
Elizabeth: You're right. Our willpower is something extraordinary, so much that some beings, equally extraordinary, can use it to do things that go beyond the comprehension of the ordinary mortal… - "Of the ordinary mortal?!" What are you talking about, girl! - ...Tell me, what do you know about immortality?
Rose: What?
Elizabeth: About the mythology of creatures with human forms that roam this earth for centuries…
Rose: Vampires?!
Elizabeth: For example. – Was looking at me, observing. Leaving a smile escape, hinted that comprised the twinkle in my eye. The fascination that the subject "supernatural" provokes in me.
Rose: I like to watch tv series and movies. But they are just that, beings living only in our imaginary.
Elizabeth opened the lid of her ring, exposing a beak, thin and sharp.
Elizabeth: Can you keep my secret?! - And she pricks the finger, pulling the nozzle ripped a bit more. A blood bubble formed. Took the finger to the mouth, cleaned up the blood, but not only... - As new!
Rose: How did you do that? – I was scared, however, my curiosity was greater. How could someone cut herself and moments later having the skin completely healed without any trace of being hurt?
Elizabeth: Rose, your friend has not been true to you. If today I am like this is because of Joan. If you let me I’ll tell you the whole truth.
Rose: What has she done to you?
Elizabeth: It was not just to me. To you too! May we go somewhere more private?
Rose: Elizabeth, if I cut myself, I'm sure I won’t heal that fast.
Elizabeth: No! What she did to you was much worse. Your real name is Katarina and once we were great friends. If you come with me I can prove it to you!
Katarina! Where have I heard that name?! I looked to Elizabeth indecisive, somehow her face began to take family traits. I looked around, the library was now another shape, was like home, it seemed… a memory.
Rose: All right! I’ll go with you.
