A Visit from an Old Friend

George and DreamXD continue their deal and before long George is rich beyond belief. People also tend to keep away out of fear of being hunted down by DreamXD. But George was aware of the things DreamXD could do. Rumours and stories had spread like wildfires.

No one really knows why Callahan doesn't speak. Some say he lost his tongue, that he can't. Others say he's cursed. But the true story is said to be that Callahan made a deal with the devil otherwise known to us as DreamXD.

You see after finding GeorgeHD's body, DreamXD didn't leave instantly.

Before DreamXD left he hung around, he caused destruction, trying in vain to find out what had happened to his lover, he destroyed a lot of the land, he killed a lot of people and at some point made a deal with the only man to see what destruction he had cause; the only one that had been left alive.

You see, during the wars Callahan wanted one thing... to protect the person he loved. So he agreed to never say a word about anything to anyone as long as DreamXD protected her. He vowed to never speak. But we all make mistakes and one day Callahan slipped up and DreamXD wouldn't hear any excuses and with that Alyssa was gone.

He didn't kill her or even harm her in anyway. But she was gone and never seen again.

And to this day Callahan still doesn't speak. He could, if he wanted to that is. But instead he stays silent, hoping that one day DreamXD might bring her back to him.

George and DreamXD were walking past the community house and as i said a lot of people knew that DreamXD was here. As they walked an old friend of DreamXD appeared. Callahan. A shadow fell across DreamXD's face and George noticed the change in his expression.

"Do you two know each other?" George asked slowly, looking between them.

"He's," DreamXD started before pausing as he looked for the right words, "An old friend."

Callahan stood still in front of them. He pointed towards DreamXD and then looked at George and shook his head. George furrowed his eyebrows in confusion only for Callahan to roll his eyes and repeat the motion. When George again looked confused Callahan gave up and grabbed a sign. George waited for Callahan to finish writing.

"Be careful what deals you make with the devil," George mumbled before realising that 'the devil' was meant to be DreamXD.

And before George could say another word to Callahan, DreamXD had decided it was time for them to leave; picking George up and leaving with him in his arms.
