Sorry for the lack of new parts lately! Vacation with my family has taken up most of my time this past week. Hopefully I'll get to writing a new part soon!
No worries, Zach! Take the time you need to rest. ^.^

Joy's sword was taken away and her hands were cuffed. Envy and Greed held her arms and walked with her back into the estate. Joy could only follow, unsure of what would happen next.

Meanwhile, Temptation in his bearded disguise was already inside the building and could view the burning barn from a window. The burning barn did create a diversion, as all of the guards left their positions to help put out the fire.
He was in a dark hallway on the third floor of the building, and he tried to reference his memory to find the location of the Alchemy room. He remembered it being in the top of a tall tower, but not the tallest tower. He looked out another window that could view all the buildings and he could see the second highest tower in view on his left. He proceeded in that direction, making way for any guards and other employees of the organization.
He reached the bottom floor and exited, now being in the courtyard. He was walking along the path to the second highest tower when he crossed paths with Envy and Greed, holding Joy's arms, as well as a small legion behind them. He so desperately wanted to rescue Joy, but he was outnumbered. He had to let her go with them and proceed with the plan.
He got into the tower, walked up five stories of spiral staircases, and finally reached the door to the Alchemy room. There was a tinted window to the inside of the room, and Temptation could just barely see what was inside, but he also pressed his ear on it and could hear the alchemist working inside and talking to himself.
"Now for the last ingredient, just a fine pinch of essence of the Maximus Tentaculous is enough." The alchemist said as he took a small deep purple crystal, and wrapped it in a cloth.
He turned around a couple times and shouted to himself, "WHERE'S MY HAMMER?" He couldn't finish his potion without a hammer to smash the crystal to dust.
Suddenly, he heard a knock at the door. He swung the door out and tried to see who knocked, but there was no one. "Someone must've taken my hammer." He left and walked down the spiral staircase.
Temptation popped out from behind the door that was swung open, and entered the alchemy room, locking the door.

Agreed. Sometimes my grandma puts butterscotch and chocolate on rice crispies and those are really good too. Scotcharoos I think is what she calls them.
