Sarah:Why can't people her our conversations?
Ellie:If the police found us we would be lab rats.Since your hearing this information you have the risk to be arrested or killed for protecting us.
Sarah:I will take the risk.
Ellie:Okay then what other questions do you have?
Sarah:Why do you wear the weird masks?
Ellie:It's an tradition to wear these masks.The other shadows do it because it will be harder for the police to find us since we don't have any emotion.Anyways if we wanted to take the masks off there stuck.
Sarah:I guess that makes sense now.How do you guys almost seem to disappear when the door opens?
Ellie:Well we have been hiding from humans for years.So you get pretty good at hiding.
Sarah:Well then my last question is why do you live in my house?
Ellie:Well this was the only house we could find a hiding spot in.We hid in your basement until you found us.Now that your fine with us we just roam around the house.
Sarah:That's really all I need to know thanks Ellie.
Ellie:Now that I've told you this you need to keep this a secret.
Sarah:I promise to protect you guys.
Ellie:Promise?
Sarah:Promise
