An illusion of Nothing

The ghost they met

They were thinking about their questions when suddenly a ghost came out of the kitchen.

The ghost was scared that Paloma started feeling dizzy right there and she was not able to understand how she would be able to talk further while she was feeling dizzy.

The ghost came out of the kitchen and appeared in front of them. He saw blood lying on the ground.

He bent towards it and took it out of his tongue and licked it.

The ghost was of a completely black colour. In reality, it could not be seen. It was partially visible and partially invisible. It was not possible to find out whether it was a girl or a boy until they heard its voice.

Paloma became completely silent out of fear.

Not a single question came out of her mouth. She didn't ask any of the questions Sia had told her to ask.

Sia could not understand what had happened to Paloma.

She knew that she was scared but if she asked the ghost any questions, the ghost would start eating her.

Only because the ghost kept a check on his blood and the ghost knew the taste of his blood.

When Sia saw that Paloma could not ask anything, she started asking herself. It was a little dangerous, but she thought it was right to take such a risk for her friend.

Sia," Who are you?"
Ghost," Why do you care?"

After hearing the voice of the ghost, Sia can conclude that the ghost was a girl.

Sia," Paloma is my Friend and I will help her and find out your creatures. And also the reason why you are behind her."
Ghost," Can really do something or just talking about?"
Sia," Hahhh! You actually didn't know the power of mine. Even I can call a ghost hunter or a demons slayer to catch you. Do you want to be summoned?"
Ghost," No!"
Sia," So, look up and answer my questions."
Ghost," Hell you!" (Informal way to say okay)
Sia," Why are you teasing Paloma?"
Ghost," I am not. I'm being order to do this."
Sia," What? Who the hell ordered you for this?"
Ghost," I can't tell you his/her name."
Sia," Are you going to tell it by yourself or want me to ask it from?"
Ghost," I really can't tell. I have my own rules."
Sia," Hell to your rules. Spit it fast."
Ghost," I have already said that I cannot tell you, now you cannot force me otherwise I need to show myself in front of you."

This showed a disrespect for Sia.

Sia," Okay! Why don't you guide me to get the answer?"
Ghost," If you want to know who is the person behind it. You need to go to the black magician, witch or a wizard. Because only this person can help you finding out who was the person behind it."
Sia," What is the helling proof that you are not lying?"
Ghost," I don't want to give you a proof. Because I don't have any reason to tease Paloma. I just want to get rid of it. I don't have intentions to tease anyone like this."

After saying this the ghost disappeared. Now, Sia and Paloma know that what they need to be done.

They have decided to go to Witch to know about it. But they need someone's help and that is Robin.
