Klug notices these objects.
"What are these doing here?" He asks me, walking over to me.
Klug sets his book on my table, where the objects were. The way Klug set it down made the book open.
I shrug, "I dunno."
Sig looks up. He stands up.
"The Lantern of the Star." Sig notes.
"Huh?" I ask.
"The Ocean Prince wanted this." He said, "Then he got swallowed by a whale."
I tilt my head.
"Umm, what?" Klug asks.
Sig somewhat shrugs, "But he got out."
"What happened after that?" I ask, in curiosity.
"Then he thought bugs were food, and I got mad at him." Sig notes. He clenched his first for some reason, "That is really it."
I nodded.
"Wait, why?" I asked.
I turn more towards Sig. Klug walks more to us and we all form a little circle thing, with our back turned against the table.
"Whaddya mean?" Sig asks me. He releases his hand from a clenched fist.
"Why did he want the lantern thingy?" I asked.
"I think it was for him to turn back into a human or something." Sig responded.
I nodded.
Klug looked up, "Uh oh."
Sig tilted his head, "Huh?"
Klug rushes back to his book. I think he notices that he accidentally left it open.
Klug flips through his book. He notices that the red thing that pops out isn't there.
"We got a problem." Klug notes.
"Where are the items?" Sig notes, somewhat out of nowhere.
The rock, lantern, and bookmark were gone.
"How did this all happen with none of us noticing?" I ask.
Sig shrugs. Klug adjusts his glasses.
"I dunno." Sig shrugs.
He jumps forward a bit, like something lightly hit him.
"You okay?" I ask.
Klug is flipping through his book more.
Sig turns around and looks around for a bit.
"I think so." He finally responds.
Just then, Raffina walks in the library.
"Hey guys." She greets, "Klug."
She greets Klug in a very sharp tone.
"Nice to see you too." Klug responds in a mocking tone.
She sighs. Klug goes back to flipping through his book.
"Hi, Wuffina." Sig waves.
Raffina sighs, "Sig, it's 'Raffina'."
Sig pauses for a bit.
"So...Waffina?" Sig asks.
Raffina facepalms.
"How do you always mess up this stuff?" She asks under her breath.
Sig cocks his head.
Raffina looks up and squints at Sig, almost like she noticed something on his face.
"What is it?" I ask. I look at Sig briefly.
Sig was looking up slightly, whispering something over and over to himself, like he was trying to pronounce something.
I look back at Raffina.
"It's nothing." She lifted her hand and shook her head.
"It's Raffina." Sig declares out of nowhere. He puts a lot of emphasis on the "R".
"Close enough." Raffina sighs.
"Yep, it's not in here." Klug announces, slamming the book with one hand and setting it on the table.
"What's not there?" Raffina asks.
"We think the demon from Klug's book escaped." I said.
"Okay…. Wait, WHAT?" Raffina double taked.
"Yep." I nod.
"You can't do anything right." Raffina says to Klug.
"Hey!" Klug shouts back. His volume suggests that he forgot that we were in a library. Not that anyone was gonna say anything.
