The Beginning
Hope loved looking into the ancient times of her family's past.
Hope Susan Pevense is a history fanatic and is the middle child of her huge family.
Hope was coming up to a camp ground where some high schoolers rumored that this was a cursed place.
When she looked the place up, it turns out, this was once a home for the great Clow Reed.
She thought to check it out. And so here she is.
"Why are we here?" Syaoran asked.
Hope had asked Syaoran Li, along with her because her older sister and younger sister, would be worried sick if she came up on her own.
"Because I'm learning some history. I do want to open up a museum for Clow Reed and many more like him in the future for everyone to know about. He's part of Asia's history weather people remember or not." She explained.
They entered the house and it looked very old and dark, yet beautiful.
"This is great!" Hope loved being in spooky places. Unlike Sakura, Syaoran's girlfriend.
"If only Meiling were here. I could pull many scares in this place." He said.
"I'm sure. But I only asked you." Hope said.
The went through the downstairs and found a library and a dungeon.
"Why would this place have a dungeon?" Hope asked.
"This is Clow Reed's place? I have no clue. Maybe he took this house from someone else." Syaoran said.
"No way." hope said shaking her head.
"If only we could get upstairs." Syaoran sighed.
Hope wished that too, but maybe they didn't need to.
She went back to the library and looked through some of the books.
She flipped through every book on the shelves till she found one red and blue book with a odd looking dragon on it.
She pulled it out, and opened a secret passage. "Syaoran." She called.
"Hope? What did you do?" He asked.
Hope only smiled at him. "Secrets indeed. Let's see what's really inside this old house." She said and headed right down the path.
Syaoran slowly made his way behind her till they came to an open room.
"Rituals." He said seeing symbols on the floor and melted candles.
But what Hope saw, was a book and a cracked picture. In the picture, there was a man, a woman, and three young children.
"Who are these people?" She asked herself.
But she soon would find out. As she turned to face Syaoran, she saw a spirit. And it looked like the woman. But she was more angry and scary looking.
"Syaoran!" Hope pulled him away from her as she screeched her head off before vanishing.
"What the- What was that?!" He asked.
Hope looked again at the photo, the parents were gone. And the children, pale as ghosts.
"I think we may have stumbled upon some angry parents." She said.
Syaoran reached for the book. Seeing what the page it was open to, he was now more scared. "I think, we are in the house, of...dark spirits." He said showing her the book.
It explained everything. The father, was actually, a demon.
