TWENTY FOUR

After talking with the cat king and queen, they all five met back up with each other "Where did you go?" Charles asked with curiosity, looking down at Frances as he walked besides her "I went with Edwin" She answered him, not wanting to talk about the other things that took place "Oh, did you find anything?" Frances shook her head "No.." Then she remembered, she heard a voice close by the blue ocean "I mean I did hear a voice-" Charles quickly cut her off mid way "You heard a voice? What did it say?" He asked with a tone of worry

"It just called out my name," She shrugged her shoulders "But it sounded so familiar.. a the shadow looked familiar. I don't know why..." She heard the British voice that said her name before, but she couldn't put a name on it, the blonde hair also looked like something she saw before. "Maybe the three ghosts were right? They heard something that led them to jump" Crystal said while she kept walking with her hands in her brown coat "Clearly they are right, unless i'm going mental" 

"So we've got the vague riddle that Niko found, maybe mermaids,  a suspicious shop manager, a whispering voice that could just be the wind, Frans going insane and a festival full of kite enthusiasts who could end up in the water. Great" Charles counted all the weird things that has been happening "I am not insane!" Frances raised her voice, taking offense to  Charles comment "Oi, you said you might be going mental, yeah?" She rolled her brown eyes before she continued to walk with the others.

"Oh!" Niko all a sudden spoke up "You forgot about the part where Edwin and Frances saw the cat king and queen again" Charles and Crystal both stopped leading the group, Charles turned his body towards Frances while Crystal looked at Edwin, both unimpressed. "Was I not supposed to say that..." Niko looked down at the ground from being guilty. 

"Really Frans? That's why you went with Edwin?" Frances gave him an awkward smile before turning her whole body around, not looking at the group from embarrassment. Both of them begin asking him questions such as if the cat king took the golden bracelet off or not "All they wanted to know was if I counted the cats, and my guess was unsatisfactory." Charles tapped Frances with his fingers, wanting her attention.

"yess..." She trailed off her words when she looked at him "Is what Edwin saying the truth?" She glances back at Edwin, he gave her a threatening look "yes, that's all they wanted." Charles hummed before asking her yet another question "What did they want from you?" With a grunt coming from Frances throat, she answered "Nothing. Just asked Edwin all the questions"

Charles did just that, he went to ask his best mate about what both of them wanted. While he did so, Frances heard the similar voice again. 'Frances' she turned her head around, facing the ocean where the voice came from. 'Frances I missed you-' The voice said yet again, she had to know who it came from- so she followed it.

The voice got louder and louder each step she took 'Frances, please stay with me. Mum never liked us.' That's when she remembered- the voice was her dead brother. The figure she saw standing up on the bridge looked like her brother, his slick back blonde hair and sharp features, it was him. "Sam?" Frances walked closer, wanting to see her brother again. 'Frances, please come with me' She stood on the bridge, inches away from falling off from it "Sam!" She shouted when her brother fell into the ocean "no!" Frances lifted one of her feet off, wanting to follow her brother.

"Frances!" Charles grabbed her waist and pulled her back down onto the ground "Sam!" She struggled to get away from Charles grip as he was stronger than her "get off of me!" She yelled loudly, tears forming in the corner of her eyes. "Frans!" Charles tried to calm her down, but it didn't work, her emotions were too strong. "No no no- he was there. He was there!" She dropped down on her knees in defeat, her tears finally coming out. Charles went on the ground with her, he wrapped his slim arms around her body, hugging her.
