The Dubois house stood before them, a typical suburban building, but with an eerie air due to the shadows of the sunset and the lights on the porch barely illuminating the three teenagers waiting for them.

Megan gestured towards them as they got out of the car - these are the ones who will help us with the ritual, Tommy, Danielle and Cooky Valentine - she said in a formal tone.

Tommy Valentine, a boy of the same age as Trevor, with a kind face and brown hair.

Danielle, who was Phoebe and Podcast's age, and who seemed more perceptive towards the newcomers.

And Cooky, the youngest, who must have been around 12, who watched the group with a curious smile and a slight childish inclination.

Trevor stepped forward and narrowed his eyes, looking at Tommy curiously - wait, haven't I seen you before? You look very familiar- he asked, scratching his head as he tried to place the memory.

Tommy frowned and quickly replied, somewhat nervously -No, I don't think so... you must be confusing me with someone else-

Phoebe, who was watching the interaction closely, narrowed her eyes and whispered, loud enough for everyone to hear -He's obviously lying-

The atmosphere immediately changed, Danielle crossed her arms, clearly annoyed by Phoebe's accusation -And what do you know? You don't know him- in an annoyed tone.

Trevor raised his hands in a sign of peace as the air tensed and said -okay, okay, everyone calm down, I clearly got confused, let's get on with this- although he continued to look at Tommy with some discomfort.

Podcast, always looking for an opportunity to document the paranormal, took out his recorder and began to set it up -This is the perfect place to start recording, you could all stand in front of the house, I love the pink sky right now- in his director of photography tone.

Before he could press the record button, Lucky intervened, putting a hand on his shoulder -there are two more people missing, keep that in mind-

At that moment, the lights of a car were seen in the distance, illuminating the street as it approached and the engine stopped in front of the house, and two more teenagers got out, both the same age as Trevor.

The first to get out was a dark-skinned girl with dark curly hair, who upon getting out met Lucky and hugged.

Lucky said -hi Sarah- then turned around and said -Guys, this is my cousin Sarah Grohl-

The boy accompanying her stepped out of the car more slowly, leaning on a cane, his expression calm but reserved. Before he could introduce himself, Podcast looked at him in amazement and, without thinking twice, exclaimed -Wow, you're Jacob Barber!-

The comment made everyone suddenly look at him. Jacob kept his expression neutral, but a small sigh escaped his lips.

Sarah shot a warning glance at Podcast, clearly uncomfortable with the tactlessness of his comment.

Jacob, however, seemed to take it in stride and said, "Yes, it's me, just call me Jacob," in a soft but firm tone, adjusting his grip on his cane.

Trevor looked at his sister, who was frowning slightly, and then turned to Jacob, as if trying to understand what was so special about him being there, but he knew it wasn't the time to ask.

Megan then said, "Okay, we're all set, let's go inside, there's a lot to discuss and not much time before we start," trying to lighten the mood.

And so the group entered the house.

Well, GPT Chat definitely likes drama, still, it feels good to just edit instead of writing it all myself, if that makes me a lazy bastard, so be it.

But I'm still waiting for your opinion on the topic and whether or not you like this new way.
