William’s frown didn’t leave his face, but he agreed, “Okay. We need the entire crew.”
William’s frown didn’t leave his face, but he agreed, “Okay. We need the entire crew.”
"D-Death?" Lucas went pale, examining the card fearfully. He dropped his fish.
“My spirits do not lie, death awaits if we don’t trust in them. They give us strength to fight off demons, if we don’t trust that strength, if we don’t use it, we die.” William explained, but then felt bad. He didn’t want to scare the poor boy, “But if you trust in them, we have good chances of ridding the world of all bad demons.”
"Yeah," Ailith said to Lucas. "I guess, think of the spirits like weird siblings. "If you don't trust them, they won't trust you. If you aren't nice to them, they won't be nice to you. So we just have to respect them, and we'll be fine."
"How… how do we get them on our side?" I don't want to die! I don't want to go the same way as mom or Claus…
“The first step is to gather the crew. Can you help do that?” William asked the boy. Maybe the crew thought William crazy, but a scared boy? How could they say no?
Lucas nodded and went off to fetch other members of the crew. "Hello? Can you come to the deck? William says we've gotta have a meeting or the spirits are gonna kill us."
Ailith followed him. "Just tell them something on deck's on fire." she whispered into his ear. "It'll get them moving faster."
"But the deck isn't on fire, is it? Why would I tell them that it is?" Lucas cocked his head slightly to the side, confused.
"It'll make them run towards the deck." Ailith said. "They might not want to go see a magic show, but they'll go if they think the deck's on fire."
"Oh… um, everyone? The deck is apparently on fire, sooo…. make your way there as soon as possible, please."
Harley smirked. He sarcastically said, “Very convincing. You gotta work on your acting skills.” and went back to searching the rooms.
"Harley!" Lucas trotted after him, fear evident in his face. "William said that the spirits are gonna kill us if we don't do anything about it! Please come… I-I don't wanna die." He tugged on Harley's pants leg.
Harley sighed, “Fine,” he whined, “Aleena! We gotta go to the deck!” he called. He didn’t expect her to follow, and if she didn’t, that would be fine. At least then he could show Lucas how to act.
"Thank you!" Lucas hugged Harley's leg gratefully before grabbing his hand and going towards the deck. "Come on! Will told me to be quick."
Harley held up his hand, “Wait, I dunno if Aleena will come. She’s pretty stubborn, so we might have to convince her.”
"Hmm? Oh… Aleena! Come on! If you don't come the spirits are gonna kill you! That's what Will said, anyways."
Simone quietly followed behind Lucas, just to make him feel better. She still didn't believe the 'spirits' but it seemed important to him.
Aleena ignored them and sat down where she was
Harley sighed, “Just like I suspected,” ge clicked his tongue, “Well, now I can show you how to act, Lucas.” he took a deep breath and yelled in a convincing voice, “Fire! Fire! There’s a fire on the deck! Aleena! Help! Fire!”
“HARLEY?!” She ran out. Seeing there was no fire she went back and sat down
Harley grabbed Aleena’s arm and dragged her to the deck, “You’re coming to the deck, it’ll only take a little while!”
“Let go of my arm.” She said through gritted teeth
“Nope!” Harley said in a sing-song tone.
She pushed him then pulled her arm back. Ignoring him, she walked over to the others
