"Absolutely not." Eddie said, looking at Erica.

"You asked for a sub, we delivered."

"This is Hellfire club. Not babysitting club." Eddie said, Erica obviously wasn't just gonna take that.

"I'm 11, you long haired freak."

"My, my, the child speaks." Eddie stood up from his throne. "So what's your name, child?"

"Erica Sinclair."

Eddie chuckled "So this is Sinclairs infamous sister."

Erica rolled her eyes and looked to Mike and Dustin. "He's sharp."

"Maybe we shouldn't have left Erica alone with Mira that one day." Mike whispered.

"I agree. Erica's like... the tinier version of her." Dustin laughed quietly.

Eddie heard their conversation, but ignored it.

"What's your class and level? Level one dwarf?" His friends laughed again.

"My name is Lady Applejack. And I'm a chaotic good half-elf rouge, level 14. I will sneak behind any monster you Throw my way and stab them in the back with my poison soaked Kukri. And I'll smile as I watch them die a slow, agonizing death. So, we gonna do this, or we gonna keep chitchatting like this is your mommy's book club?"

Everyone in the room looked at her shocked

Eddie smiled and held out his hand.

"Welcome to Hellfire."

"Push em back, defense! Push em back!" Some cheerleaders said while the game went on.

Jason pointed at Chrissy when he scored, she didn't look happy like she normally would have. But Jason didn't care and went back to the game.

"Looks like my headline has a shot." Fred said to Nancy as the other team made another point.

"The hooded cultists chant, Hail Lord Vecna. Hail lord vecna. They turn to you, remove their hoods you recognize most of them from Makbar. But there is one you do not recognize, his skin shriveled, desiccated, and something else."

Everyone looked at him and listened carefully.

"He is not only missing his left arm, but his left eye!" Eddie dramatically covered up his eye.

All of them clamored around him, yelling and shouting.

"Vecna dead."

"He was killed by Kas." Mike said.

"So it was thought my friends, so it was thought. But Vecna lives."

"You are scared, you are tired, you are injured. Do you flee Vecna and his cultists? Or stand your ground and fight? Come on."

Everyone at the table looked at each other.

"Sinclair, you're in."

"Huh?"

"You're in son, let's go!"

Lucas quickly took off his jacket and got ready, running up to the court.

"I say we fight. To the death."

"To the death". Everyone repeated around him, and then they all started chanting it.
