"If I see her anywhere near her or me..." said Ian trailing off. "She has nothing to do with me. I already told her to leave us alone. If she comes near here, it's her fault," said Gin. "Beings? What kind?" asked Ian knowing that ⨊ wasn't a being. "My grandfather was once saved by them. I don't know what kind, but they never age and are not to be messed with, so I've been told," said Mike. "Why do you think she never ages?" asked Ian.
"She appears to be the same age as when she was our neighbor," said Nina. "We were just curious. Plus we would never say anything to anyone," she added. Ian just glanced at Fei, Rin and Mike. "We won't say anything to anyone either," said Rin. "We can make a vow," said Mike. "You don't need to know anything about her," said Ian getting annoyed with Mikes behavior. ⧚A vow would bind you, your life. Are you sure you want to make a vow?⧚ came to a voice that was heard both physically and telepathically by everyone. Ian glanced at ⨊ and found that she was still asleep, but felt a change in the atmosphere. Though it was very light and could easily be overlooked.
"I vow never to say anything to anyone about you or the people associated with you," said Nina, Vincent, Gin, Steve, Haley and Caren simultaneously when they felt the change around. "I too vow. To never say anything to anyone," said Mike when he felt the pressure. "I vow also. To never say anything to anyone," said Fei and Rin when they felt a pressure directed at them. ⧚The moment you think about telling anyone anything, even your parents or spouse is the instant you will die a cruel death.⧚ came the voice again before everything returned to normal.
