"You stole mums soul" he whispered to cal. In a slightly scary nature before walking off.
"Okay!?..." Caleb shook his head. "Weird child"
Several members of staff had commented over the past few days on how Ethan had been acting strange. Cal didn't believe them at first then Ethan started talking about "stealing souls" and how he should find them.
Tonight was the consultants ball. Cal was dragging Ethan along with him because frankly he didn't want to go alone.
Ethan was reluctant to go at first but then just got fed up of asking if he can stay home. The night dawned and it was soon time to get ready for the party.
Eyes darting back and forth Ethan buttoned his shirt... Hands shaking, eyes still darting.
Things weren't right...
Arriving at the ball was tough. All Ethan wanted to do was stare at the lights witch annoyed Caleb profusely.
The ball was in a big function room with a free bar. As Caleb headed to the bar. Ethan couldn't stand the noise and the bright lights. So he bolted for it. Covering his ears, eyes still darting. Everyone stared at the young man obviously in a mental crisis.
He ran to a glowing street light outside. Stopping to stare at it.
"Mum?" He whispered almost evilly...
"ETHAN!" Caleb shouted for his distressed little brother.
"Are you alright"
Cal put his hand on Ethan's shoulder. But Ethan just flinched whispering "don't you touch me!"
"I need to find mum!" Ethan whispered looking up at the street light...
"WHERE IS SHE" he screamed
"WHERE DID YOU HIDE HER!"...
"YOU TOOK HER SOUL BEFORE SHE DIED!" He cried once more...
More soon...
