Game of the Shadows by GW Chapter 2 Spirit in the Glass

The glass moved. The boys observed what the spirit in the glass was pointing out. D – E – G – start.

"Deg?!" the group cried out, except Kurapika.

"Is that your initials?" Kurapika asked solemnly, with a touch of enigma in his voice.

The spirit answered "yes" and back to the center of the game board. This time, it's faster.

"Can you tell us your name?" Gon asked innocently. "Or even your nickname, that'd do!" he followed up with a cheerful tone, "we can't call you on your initials can we?"

Again, the glass moved to yes, then it pointed to the letters D – E – M – Y and back to start.

"Demy, can we be friends?" Gon asked again, wearing a smile on his face.

Killua was greatly astonished of what his friend was saying, "are you foolish, Gon?" he whispered.

"No!" Gon answered back, his big rounded eyes looking at Killua.

Killua was about to say something when the glass again moved. It said, "NO!" the whole posse was shocked.

"Silence!" Kurapika stated, "can we please go now?" he started to talk to the spirit.

The glass moved and answered "no".

"Why?" Kurapika retorted.

The glass came moving back and forth. C – J – C – J – C – J. The glass swung on the letters staying for a couple of seconds then moving back.

"Please stop!" Kurapika begged, "Can we go now?"

The glass moved to the word "no" without passing at the center of the board.

"Can we go now, Demy?" Gon asked when he noticed that Kurapika was already sweating heavily.

The glass moved again, slower this time. F – R – I – E – N – D – S. As it passed the letters, the glass doubles its speed.

"Of course, we're friends!" the black-haired boy exclaimed, smiling at the glass.

Unexpectedly, the glass moved to "no". Every each of them was surprised. Astonishment and bewilder mixed with dread. The wind from the open window came blowing harder, freezing, which adds to the eeriness of the environment.

Finally, Kurapika found the courage to speak. "Is CJ your friend?"

The glass moved to yes.

Again, Kurapika spoke. This time, he sounded like he was commanding the spirit and not begging it, "We need to go!"

The glass pulsated fast, no!

"Can we go now?" Gon came talking again, in a pure delightful manner, "you see, we need to rest… so please let go of us, friend…"

The spirit stirred the glass to the word 'yes' then it figured, J – A – F – R – I – E – N – D… Everybody was flabbergasted, except for Gon who seems very exultant on what the spirit have answered.

"Can you call another spirit for us?" Leorio finally spoke, his finger resting at the glass.

Kurapika gazed at the guy with a slaying look. "Haven't you got enough?" he protested, removing his fingertip on the glass. "That spirit almost won't free us!"

"But we did made friends with him!" Gon stated, his finger still resting on the glass. Then the boy noticed that the glass was moving, once more…

The glass pointed out 'yes'. Then to the center of the Ouija board.

Killua smiled, "I'm having fun! Come on, join us!" he alleged Kurapika, who is now standing at the edge of the bed.

The blond hunter sat and put his finger back, "I'm joining in…"

"Spirit, are you in?" Leorio started to summon.

The glass answered yes…
