Al Drin Hoshizora: When did I say I wouldn't make another Goosebumps fanfiction? Didn't I make it clear I'd be making a follow up?

I am a burglar: No, last I checked, you were in jail.

"I don't think I can do this!" David cried out in panic as he Isabella held his hand as the two ice-skated on the frozen tar pit, which had been encased in ice ever since the battle against Mirror Isabella.

"Don't be a crybaby, David," Isabella chastised him as she led him on the ice. David mumbled something inaudible.

Amanda, Sam's orphanage friend, watched from afar, clapping her hands. "Come on David, you can do it!" She encouraged. David gave a weak smile, and tried to balance himself on the ice.

Around the ice pit, the humans and fairies watched. After the freezing of the dreaded tar pit, it had become a sort of attraction where humans and fairies mingled. How fitting, some thought, that the area in which the humans and fairies had settled their differences was now the place where they'd be united.

Sam and Janet sat on the leg next to Kizzy and Lizzy, two fairy girls who had been guardians to the Crystal children. They watched as Isabella and David skated on the ice.

Sam and Janet didn't say a thing about they're meeting with the water sprites. Sam, in particular, was somewhat uncomfortable with the thought that not all the fairies were aware that humans were now allowed in the mirror realm, but he struggled to push the thought into the back of his head. After all, when Brooklyn informed the other sprites, the problem would be solved.

Mirror Samson, Sam's reflection, floated down to take a seat next to Sam and Janet.

"So, did you take Janet to see the water sprites?" He asked. He was the only person Sam had informed of this.

Sam nodded and gave a bright smile, but still kept quiet of what had happened while they were there. The moment he turned away from his reflection, Sam's face fell.

As Sam's eyes wandered, he could both see and feel a growing presence in the area. It was a fairy presence, so he knew that more fairies were entering the area.

He groaned as he realized that it was the water sprites.

It seemed the other fairies noticed the growing presence as well, as they all turned their heads around in the primary direction it was coming from. The humans, who couldn't sense fairies, didn't notice.

Slowly, but surely, the new arrivals made themselves visible.

Crawling out from the darkness of the forest, the water sprites walked with padded feet on the green ground. Water dripped from their face and hair as they advanced upon the area.

The humans, who could now see the water sprites, all turned to stare at them, wondering what they're arrival meant. Sam noticed that all the water sprites that were arriving were all adults. None of the fairies he and Janet met in the lake were among them.

Isabella noticed the fairies, and stopped skating.

"Hey, I'm doing it," David said as he started skating on his own, oblivious to what was going on around him. "Hey, are you seeing this? I'm skating! I'm-"

He finally stopped when he saw the other fairies entering the scene. Next to him, Isabella whispered, "Oh, crap."

One particularly large water sprite barged out from the trees and shoved past the smaller fairies. He had red hair with a blue streak in it. His massive chest jutted out, and his meaty arms swung by his sides. The water sprites all moved away to make room for him to show up.

Sam narrowed his eyes as he showed up. Janet scooted close to him and whispered, "Who is he?"

"His name is Cain," Sam whispered back, careful that the large, imposing water sprite didn't hear him.

The large fairy, known as Cain, stopped, and looked around, eyeing all the humans in the area. Brenda, Isabella's friend, hid behind Janet and whispered, "Great Scott, he's huge."

"Actually, I'm Irish," Cain said, flipping his shirt with his massive hands.

Now that all the water sprites were in the area, they all moved towards Cain and stood behind him. Clearly, he was their spokesperson.

"Well, isn't this an odd gathering," Cain sneered as he stared at the humans with contempt. "Was there a party we weren't invited to?"

"Why are you here, Cain?" One of the adult forest sprites asked.

"Well, I was out fishing when my neighbor Brooklyn told me a very peculiar story," Cain explained, pacing around, a jolly smile on his face. "She said that humans were being allowed in the mirror dimension. I figured she was lying, so I came over here just to tell you all what a ridiculous story she was spinning."

Then, his smile disappeared. "Only, it wasn't so ridiculous, was it?" He narrowed his eyes at someone in particular.

Sam realized that Cain was staring at him. He shrunk down.

"So, are you the boy everyone said was adopted by humans?" He asked, taking one giant step forward. The forest fairies hissed as he approached Sam, but Cain was not deterred.

Noticing Janet, Cain said, "Is this the human that Sam tamed?"

"I didn't tame anyone," Sam spoke out. "She's my sister."

"When have fairies and humans been brothers or sisters?" Cain asked, spreading his arms out to the side in disbelief.

"It's true," Janet said, smiling brightly.

Cain chucked, and turned to the other fairies. "Are you all hearing this?" He asked them. "Do you have any idea what they're saying? It's just nonsense, isn't it."

When the fairies didn't respond, Cain's eyebrows narrowed, and he grimaced.

"So it's come to this?" He asked with a low growl. "Have we fairies really lowered our dignity so much? Have I not been around to remind everyone of how nature works?"

Cain's anger was only piqued when, once more, he got no response. He paced around, and said, "Well, nature says that we belong in the mirror dimension and the humans don't. They are forbidden!"

"Nature changes," Sam said firmly, standing up.

Cain turned to face him. "And who are you to tell me how nature works, boy?" He growled, and started striding towards the boy. Sam took a step back as the giant mountain of a man started to get closer, but he straightened up and tried to look as tall as he could.

Before Cain could gain any more distance, Isabella soared in between them. Cain stopped.

"Back off," Isabella said, blocking Cain from reaching Sam. "Don't you dare take another step forward."

Cain raised his hands and stepped back. "Whatever you say, Isabella," He said, and produced a smile that reeked of falsehood.

The forest fairies stared at the water sprites, wary. The water sprites started growling and hissing, but stepped back towards the forest.

"Go home," One of the forest fairies ordered. "We don't want to hear another word of this for the rest of the day."

Cain nodded. "And so you won't," He said, and with a wave of his arm, the water sprites turned back to lead back for the lakes. As they left, Cain turned, and stared at Sam.

Sam instantly stumbled when he saw that look. Cain eyed him with contempt, then turned and vanished into the darkness of the forest.

Just like that, they were gone.
