DAT PIC YO!
"Can we not?" I begged,
I really don't want to go in there, it's obvious that it looks like a trap. And it seems abandoned, what if there's something like cerberus? Like, for a guard or something.
"We are not in a position where we can choose." Rhei forced me, dragging me by my right arm tightly.
"Nooo! What if there's a ghoul in there?!"
"Why a ghoul?"
"You know, like they're eating here and keeping the dead bodies here also..."
"No such thing." Rhei shook his head.
"Aw come on!"
"We will simply come in and stay for a while, if we meet the owner then we will just explain our horrible situation." Rhei said confidently, and so he said.
We're inside now, the hallway is just as i imagined. Dark, spooky, large weird painting and a broken vase.
Rhei walked as if he owned this place. I followed him nervously, hoping I wouldn't meet any monster Frankenstein made. Who knows that this place is their secret lab?
"Alright, go here." Rhei said, pointing inside the room after he opened the door. I looked inside and gawked at the sight, a room filled with bunch of clothes. Any kinds of it.
"W-What?!"
"You should change into one of these clothes."
"I don't really th-"
"Your clothes is not appropriate isn't it?" Rhei said, "Are you comfortable with that?"
I stared at my half burned clothes.
Rhei stared at me with satisfaction as he saw me nodding my head, he shoved me inside and closed the door.
"I will wait here." He said.
-
Rhei opened the door after he heard me knocking the door. He smiled at me,
"Better."
I nodded, i looked at my dress. A white short dress with a hint of blue on it. Adding blue ties and ribbons around it.
"It's the only size that fits me the most, the others have a weird size. Either too big or small." I explained,
"Well then," He nodded, "We should not waste any time."
"Hm?"
"Lucy, I have a story here." He said with a serious tone, "It might take a while, so will you walk with me through this hallway."
I shrugged, "Nothing better to do."
"There was once a little girl who once lived in a village named Sycca, that village is known for holding no knowledge of anything related to magic." He breathed out, "So, unfortunately, That little girl's Father was an outsider and was a mage. That cause the villagers thinking that he's a demon of some sort. Thus, the father died by murder and the mother decided to hide inside the dark forest."
"The dark forest?"
"Yes." He nodded, "That is the one place the village doesn't dare to enter, that is why they thought it would be safe. It did, the villagers left them alone for a while. Until there is some children missing from the village. This caused a panic and the villagers decided it would be wise to go inside."
"They assumed that it was them?" I asked. "Was there even proof?"
"No, sadly. The mother was murdered and the little girl is all alone."
