Percy went outside to get Janice. He had prepared hot chocolate for the both of them including poppy, who was on the ship drinking his.
Percy looked around, softly shouting her name. "Janice! Janice where are you!?" He looked at the footsteps on the ground, following them with his eyes. He looked at the cave and instantly froze. "JANICE!" His voice cracked and he ran to the edge of the cave.
...
He stood outside the cave and stared into the darkness. Milos Body was no longer there so there was no evidence.
Percy gripped the knife on his belt and whispered to himself reassuring things. He slowly stepped in, holding into the wall so he wouldn't slip and fall. He saw a small lit space
He looked around and spotted skin taker sewing something, Janice curled up but still living beside him.
He was telling her something, but Percy couldn't make it out.
Janice stood up and he pulled her close to his face, she was clearly uncomfortable. "Shush it, or you'll be next..."
The little girl, shivering not cause she was cold but cause she was scared. She nodded slowly.
The skin taker let her go and pointed to the caves exit. She walked out and gasped when she saw Percy.
Percy put a finger to her lips and lead her out of the cave.
"Are you alright Janice?"
"Yeah....im fine..."
