Roxas ran, following Chirio at the base of the steps. He squinted his eyes as it began to get dark really fast.
That isn't possible….is it? He thought.
He gave his sister a small heave as Chirio asked, "What's his problem?"
Roxas shrugged and they ran off down the stairs, trying to find the food stall cafe that Chirio's parents were at.
But ghosts were popping up from the ground, which frightened the three kids. Rena whimpered with frightened sounds and hid her face in his shoulder, even though she couldn't hide much seeing how Roxas is a small kid.
"Daddy!" Chirio shouted out.
They found the stall, but Roxas froze in horror, they had somehow become pigs. He knows magic can't be real, like the Witches movie, it was made up. It can't be real.
Can it?
Roxas watched in horror as Chirio shook her dad with her hand, and he turned round and she let out a frightened sequel, stepping back several feet. Her pig daddy fell out of his seat and they began to run again.
"Mommy! Daddy!" Chirio shouted as they stopped.
But no one shouted for her or their names. So they kept running, Roxas wondered where they were going?
"Where are we going?" he asked, panting hard.
"Mommy and daddy must have left without us!"
Roxas wasn't sure, those pigs are wearing her parents' clothes and they are sitting in the same spot that they left them in.
But his feet and legs were so sore from running and carrying his sister. He wondered when he was going to fall, eventually.
They went down the stairs that lead back to the red tower, but they end up stepping into cold and freezing water. Roxas turned around, went back up to dry land the same time as Chirio realized what she had stepped into.
"It's water!"
Roxas looked at the tower to see red lights there, his heart beating with fear. What was going on with this place? Magic, his brain told him but it can't be magic!
Magic didn't exist, yes mutants exist but not magic!
"This can't be…" Chirio whispered, then she began to hit her head, saying that it was just a dream, and then she went to her knees, trying to wake herself up.
But Roxas knew this couldn't be a dream anymore than him witnessing his mom and dad's death.
But then their bodies began to transplant, Roxas could basically see through Chirio and he looked down at his feet to find himself the same way!
"I can see through!" Chirio said, sounding freaked out. "It's a dream, it's got to be!"
Roxas saw the ship lowering a plank down and different monsters or creatures, he isn't sure what they are, came off board.
Roxas, still holding his sister and Chirio ran in the other direction. He collapsed to his knees as they turned a corner.
"Wox?" sniffled Rena.
He turned his head to her but then he tumbled over and his sisters cries is the last thing he hears.
He just wanted to sleep for a bit, he was just so tired.
But then he woke up and he sputtered, feeling water go into his mouth, he sat up and saw the kid from before.
"You were hydrated, kid." he said in a gentle and friendly voice.
He put something near him, some sort of food. And after what he saw happen to Chirio's parents?
He would rather starve.
"Don't worry, it won't turn you into a pig."
HE chewed slowly and swallowed, his hand and body went back, "Good boy, you'll be fine. Look for yourself."
Roxas put his small hand against the boy's hand as his body became solid again., Rena crawled to him and he held her close.
"Wox, scared."
"Me too." he said as he watched her suck her thumb.
"Is she all right?" the boy asked.
"She's hungry, Rena wants her bottle."
The boy gave him a smile, "We'll get her one."
Roxas nodded as Chirios asked about her parents getting turned into pigs.
"You can't see them now, but you will." the boy told her.
Then he frowned and looked up, he hid them with his body. "Quiet!"
They looked up to see a bird, Roxas squinted his eyes and he saw the bird had the face of a woman!
Just what the heck is this place?
The boy got up to his feet, "It's looking for you three. There's no time, run."
But when Roxas tried to get up, he found himself stuck and he saw that Chirio was the same.
"I can't stand, oh no! My legs won't work!"
"Calm now. Take a deep breath."
Roxas did and suddenly he was on his feet again. HE picked up his sister as the boy made them run across the town, down into where they kept the cold food and pigs into.
But then soon they were back at the bathhouse….
