Coral - Coraline's daughter

The Known Souls

Coral saw nothing but darkness. She was too scared to think straight and just wanted to get out and find her friends.

"The Beautiful Lady is listening to us," the voices whispered, trembling and tearful. Coral could not distinguish whether they were children or adults, men or women, there were many voices, they spoke and echoed each other, she was frightened and the cold began to paralyze her. But the crystal that was hidden inside his clothing pulsed and warmed slightly, Coral worried even more if he lost that crystal.

- Who are you? Coral finally had the courage to speak, the room was dark, she did not want to move and risk falling somewhere and losing everything she did there. His parents were there, Toby was in danger, Rudy and the others could be in danger as well.

"Be quiet," all the whispers spoke at almost the same time.

"You're the one"

"savio"

"Protector of children"

"You're going to destroy the Beautiful Lady"

They spoke several things at once, Coral could hear the voices and now he was no longer so afraid, he knew that whoever was there would not hurt her.

"Please, I'm afraid of the dark." Coral whined.

"Do not be afraid"

"The darkness does not compare with what the Beautiful Lady can do"

"You have the power." At that moment Coral felt a hand approach his chest, where the crystal was stored and then the crystal pulsed and shone, and the cold hand that touched it also shone and everything in the room pulsed like a faint glow and Only then did Coral see who the voices were.

There were some Souls who were there, huddled in the corners of the room that was very small and had an old bed in a corner, Coral realized that the shrunken souls were children, with buttons in place of the eyes and in front of them three adult Souls stood out, Were the only adults in the room, two women, one tall with huge breasts and one short and sturdy, while the third soul was a tall, thin man with a large belly and a mustache that looked like mouse mustaches.

- I know you! Coral knew they were familiar, they looked a lot like their friends, and soon realized that it was their neighbors, or rather, they were his mother's old neighbors. - Mr. Bobinsky, Miss. Spink and Forcible!

"The Beautiful Lady captured us"

"Locked us up"

"Took our eyes"

"Your mother tried to avoid"

"Coraline, our savior"

"Coraline"

"Coraline"

"Coraline"

All the little minstrels were all talking at the same time and flying everywhere.

- She got Toby, she wants to hurt him.

"The prophecy"

"She wants to be able to"

"She wants to dominate the other world"

"The real world"

"Our world"

"Your brother is the key"

"Crystal is the key"

"You are the key"

"Rudy told me a bit about the story, what she wants, what she's done in the past ..." Coral was passing the story through her head, the Other Mother had cursed everyone in her own family.
