I read the words over and over in my mind:

SOUL SUCKER.

The very name of whatever this creature was sent chills down my spine. I could only hope-

Donald snatched the old, crinkled paper from my grip, almost tearing it.

"What is this?" He muttered.

"Take it easy! You don't want to rip it!" I shrieked. "And I don't even know what it is!!"

He scanned the paper, his eyes filled to the brim with concentration.

"A soul sucker..... I've only heard of these once..." He murmured.

"What are they?" I asked anxiously.

"Well...... They seem to have all of the traits of a human, like the girl we're dealing with...."

"And?"

"The only way to kill them is to exorcise from them all of the souls they have sucked...... And that could be lethal."

My eyes widened.

"Lethal?"

He nodded slowly. "I wonder where the spell for the exorcism is.....?"

He looked all over the paper, scouring it for details, and found none. He slammed the paper to the ground in anger and exasperation.

I sighed.

"How can we kill it without the spell?"

"We can't." He replied evenly.

I sat in silence. I knew no other way to pass the time. Meanwhile, Donald was scouring the paper yet again, hoping to find any tidbit of information he possibly could find.

After a while, he whopped in joy.

"That's IT!" He grinned. "It has to be in invisible ink!"

"Wait, what?" I asked.

"Invisible ink! It's genius!!!!! I have a portable invisible ink detector! We can find the secret!" He was scrambling through his pockets, looking for the device.

Suspicions confirmed: Donald is a complete nerd. But he could save my life, so who am I to complain?

He finally found what he was searching for: a little keychain with a purple-pink ray at the end that activated when you pressed a red button on the side.

"That's it?" I asked.

He nodded. "But don't underestimate it..." He scanned the page.

"YES!!!" He bellowed.

I jumped. "What?!"

"The page has all of the secrets! Including the spell! We're going to kill this thing!!"
