Ki shook her head in disbelief before grabbing James's wrist with her other hand and pulling him with them inside the house and starting up the stairs.
"We haven't got the time for you to talk us out of this, so I think I'll explain as we go," she said as she continued up the stairs.

"I don't like the sound of this" James said as he was dragged up the stairs and Phoebe followed behind.

As she reached the attic and began to pull out various bits and pieces, she spoke breathlessly, "Corwyn, Jade's soul, us save, you keep alive."

James looked to Phoebe. "My father has taken Jade's soul and he means to take his revenge for killing him and stealing me. We have to save her and you need to keep us alive." Phoebe translated.
"What! No, no, and no." James said. He grabbed Ki by the shoulders to stop her from moving. "Are you mad? This is suicide."

"She'd do it twice over for me," she said, meeting his gaze unfalteringly. "Besides, it's not quite suicide."

James sighed as he released her. "You really are her daughter." He said.
"So you'll help us then?" Phoebe asked.
"If I don't then you'll do it anyway and then you'd really be in trouble. So yes, I'll help you"

"Excellent," said Ki, pulling out crystals and salt and other things from around the attic, "We might just survive this."
It took them fifteen minutes to rushedly set everything up for the perfect environment to keep their bodies in stasis. She hoped any of the charms on the house would help keep them safe too, as this was not the time for mishaps.

"Now I want you two to remember not to doubt while your doing this stupid idea. Don't forget your history. I hope you two learned something from Orpheus's story." James said.
"James that's a myth, not history" Phoebe said rolling her eyes like she did when she was young.
"So are you" He reminded her with a smirk.

Ki grinned. "Never underestimate the power of myths and magic," she said with the same grin, then sobered and nodded her head slowly.
"I think, Phoeb, this is the most dangerous thing we've ever done. Ready?"

"James if anything goes... " Phoebe started to say.
"No doubts, no second guessing. You're coming back no matter what." James told her firmly. Phoebe hugged him quickly with a watery smile.
"I'm ready." she told her sister as she took her hand.

Ki nodded. "Don't let go... If either of us is swept away we're done for." she gave Phoebe a half-smile, then closed her eyes.
"I summon a gateway to the land of the dead.. I summon the veil, thick as it may be, to wither here, to pale at our touch, to fade and allow one world to collide with another.. I summon a gateway.."
She paused as she felt the rush; she didn't dare open her eyes though she could hear sounds echoing all around her.
"And I guess it's just one big step off this plane... And onto the next..." she said, hoping Phoebe could still hear her and continuing to cling to her hand as she attempted to step.
It was honestly the oddest experience Kiara Star Anise had felt in her lifetime, the feeling of the spirit being sucked from the body as she stepped away from herself and into a separate form, into a very, very different place.
"Phoebe?" she asked, in a quiet voice, still not daring to open her eyes.

"I'm here." Phoebe answered grateful that she could hear Ki's voice. Out of fear she had squeezed her eyes as tight as she could before they left their bodies. "do you know where we are?" she asked wondering if Ki had dared to open her eyes.

"Something tells me we're not in the attic anymore..." Ki paused and held her breath. "Shall we open our eyes on the count of three?"

"1...2...3" Phoebe said and opened her eyes. Everything around them was light and white. It was like standing on air. or just being light itself. It was after a few moments that things began to take shape and Phoebe could see pillars and a floor. "Wow" was all she could say.

"Jeez... Where are we?" Ki turned her head, looking around her without loosing her hands from Phoebe's, "And how on Earth are we gonna find Jade in here?"
