You see George may look like him. But there are other things that's must match.

~§~

DreamXD led George out into the forest. This wasn't unusual so George questioned nothing.

"Hey Georgie, you know how you would need to give me a favour." George nodded, unsure now.

XD told George about HD and how there would be a way to see him. To contact him. So George agreed and the two headed deeper into the forest.

Too where the vines cross and tangled the path trapping the stones beneath. Mushrooms grow bright and colourful with others the dullest brown. The trees block the rain leaving only the slightest 'tip tap' to be heard while the sun is shrouded in clouds. But eventually they reached a clearing. Lit with candles and the smell of the candles filled the air.

XD did little in the way of explaining. Merely gave George a bowl, filled to the brim with a tomato soup looking like thing, many would be suspicious and question what was in the soup; yet George's faith in XD outweighed any suspicions he might have. So he drank it.

And minutes later... he fell to the ground.

~§~

Eventually his vision cleared and he could sit up again; yet there was a ringing in his ear that hadn't been there before.

"Hello George," DreamXD's voice rang out echoing and rough. "How do you feel love?"

"Fine, I guess. There's a ringing in my ear though," George said as he reached for the glass of water that XD had left beside him.

"Perfect."

XD stood up slowly and began to walk around the clearing, muttering to himself. George only heard snippets, talking about things like 'showing signs' and 'soon' and 'a plan'? George had began to zone out when XD began to walk over to him.

Then, George got up and smiled as XD patted the boy softly on the head; before putting an arm around his waist, to guide him back along the cobblestone path.
