The Stranger
"H-h-hi creepy v-v-voice." said Cheshire, holding onto a rock behind him"Go away! Never tell anyone what you heard! Or you die!" barked Raven.
"Hey! Come out and show yourself!" I yelled. Luke was barley noticed. He was staring backwards.
"Luke, what are you looking at?" I asked him.
He just pointed.
There stood a tall, hunched over, bald man. He was wearing a suit and holding a cane. He finally spoke.
"No need to worry. I am like you." he said.
"What do you mean?" asked Raven, still mad.
"I mean, a water person." he answered. And instantly made a slightly jittery ball of water. Cloe ran up and touched it. It fell apart and dropped into a puddle.
The man scowled.
"Now, I know you are more powerful. Especially Cloe and Raven. Though Raven has also dark water in her too."
"Wait, how do you know our names?" asked Luke.
"Well, I have been watching you for some time. I even held you when you were first born. I gave you your powers." the man said.
"You sure are one creepy dude!" said Cheshire.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa. Go back. What the heck is dark water?" I asked.
"Yeah! I want to know about myself! How do you know more about me than me!" said Raven
"me than me. Good one!" said Cloe. She and cheshire fell over laughing.
"Quiet! Now, back to the question. Dark water is not bad, but it allows the user to communicate with the underworld. Also, to make water that is black. Now, you don't even know my name! My name is James Brown." said Mr.Brown.
"Okay, yeah. So now, can you answer our question about the stupid moon!"said Cheshire.
"Yes. The moon. Cloe, you were right. As were you Julie. But you need to go further. Here is a paper for a magic man. You need to see him. He will be expecting you. Ta-ta!" And he left. quicker than an old man should.
"Hey...This is my uncle's name!" cried Luke, who was holding the paper.
