Sorry for being gone for a while there! I fell ill and I had to keep up with work and school at the same time. So there was not that much time to write! But here I am back at it and here to stay.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"By the way George, you never gave me your apology," I said to him. All the while thinking shamefully, now it is your turn buddy to get on your knees and apologize to this young master, hahaha.
Fred shakes his head, "Now, you want to include poor little George?"
I look at him like I would an idiot, "What? Weren"t the two of you in cahoots?"
"You made me say that you degenerate!" Fred angrily shouts at me while waving his fist menacingly in front of my face.
"It isn"t my fault! You guys started it and I finished it, it is that simple." I said to him as I shrugged my shoulders in an unconcerned fashion. "Anyways you could have won, if only you did not chicken out, near the end of there."
"You are always going on and on, about the dangers that lurk through the school"s walls. What was I supposed to do, I heard you whispering that a dragon or a basilisk might be behind the door."
I catch myself as soon as I can, but a sneeze manages to escape. I cover my mouth as best as I can all the while laugh to myself internally, I can"t believe you fell for that.
Outwardly I shake my head at him and say sadly. "I tell you all this and you still manage to run headlong into all sorts of dangers," I sigh to myself. "Why do I even try to in rein both of you guys?"
"If it is way too much work for you, then why do you even try, huh?"
I shrug my shoulders and answer him with cryptic future knowledge. "To make sure that neither of you does not lose an ear or your life! Isn"t that obvious."
"How the h.e.l.l, will either I or George lose an ear or their life?"
"Muh, I don"t know, you ask yourselves," I said to him nonchalantly.
I pivoted away from all of Fred"s incessant questioning and turned to face George. "Hey, George, where is my apology you were supposed to give."
When I don"t hear the immediate answer, I was hoping from him. I craned my neck around so that I could face him eye to eye. As I took a closer look at the guy, I was able to see why he was not responding.
The man was as pale as a ghost, I nudged his shoulder with two of my fingers and asked him slowly. "Hey what wrong dude?" I say that I was not getting any answers from him and started to wonder if it was me who caused this.
I quickly decided to relent my case. "You know what forget about that apology. It was both of our faults, muh, how does that sound?"
Still, I was not getting a response, I sighed to myself and said. "Fine! It was my fault, I was a sore loser. Now, why don"t you stop faking that shocked expression?" I said to him as I pointed at the look on his face.
"Yeah, you got him, twin, so why don"t you stop it already with that freaky expression?"
"Hey!" I say as I snap my fingers in front of his face. Finally, I get an answer from him thanks to my action, but all he does is point his finger in a specific direction.
I look at the direction that he is pointing at, which is the mysterious door. I crane my neck and narrow my eyes as I look at the door that should have been closed is now open by itself.
Beyond the door is a black wiggling throng, and I know for sure that whatever that is, it is alive, I can feel the life coming from it, thanks to all the chittering coming from it.
I clear my throat, "What do you guys say to RUNING away?" I say as I slowly and carefully back away since I do not want to get that "things" attention.
Fred nods his heads then grabs his brothers arm and starts to drag him away.
All of a sudden a single yelp can from the black swirling ma.s.s, and then the black thing pulsed.
"I think we have been found out!" George says.
"You think!" I shouted as I have given up on all stealth and started to run like a mad man. I look back at the person who just spoke up, and it was George. "Oh, I see that you are back in the world of the living."
"Yeah, it is just like as you like to put it. "My soul has nearly flown out of my body!" Nevertheless, you did not see what I saw, the door opened by itself. By the ways, I think it is a Lethifold."
Fred all the sudden started to laugh. I looked at him and asked in a half worried and half-jokingly matter. "Hey, did you get kicked in the head by a donkey?"
"What? No, I was laughing at George, I am sure as h.e.l.l he was frightened out of his boots. Did you see his face, it was as white as a sheet."
I opened the door and waved them with my hand to hurry put. "Yeah, I saw it," I answered Fred as I tried to close the door, but quickly gave up on it. Since the black ma.s.s started to fly toward us.
As we run away from the old bathroom, Glanmore Peakes who was in his portrait looked at us in confusion and then asked. "Where yo running off to, lads?"
I did not stop at all to answer his question except throw him a single piece of advice. "Runaway to some other portrait, before that thing gets you!" With that, I, Fred, and George were off into the distance.
Glanmore Peakes craned his neck as far as he could in his portrait to see us run off. He rubbed his beard in bewilderment as he sat in his portrait, then he looked at the place we just run away from. His eyes nearly popped out of his eye socket of what he saw then he tailed it.
