“Now?” Evan is still in shock.
“Yea, your dad said he would bring your stuff inside, we can help you put together your room and such.” Jax reassures his friend.
“Ok, one moment,” Evan goes to his dad. “Thank you, I love you, I miss you, tell mom I love her,-”
“You can call us anytime, you know our schedules, you have your friends here, you can take care of yourself.” Lucas hugs his boy. “Go have fun. Send pictures of your room. Don't make it a mess within hours of putting things away please.”
Evan laughs, nods, and goes back to his friends.
“Sorry,”
“You should have seen Lu, he was crying-” chuckles Jax.
“Shshshshshshs…. I just love my fam. That's all.” Lu hisses
“There is nothing wrong with that, lets go!” Jax says as he leads the way.
The wind is a cool breeze, the smell of sea water hits Evan in the face, mmm. Salt. He thinks to himself before asking “is there a beach?”
Lu nods “a beach and a forest and a whole farm like this place has everything!”
“Yea,” Jax chips in with “this used to be a huge field, still is mostly that, but some powerful being or whatever supposedly made the beach and the world gained a sea? I'm not going to ask the old gods. Also planted the mega forest.”
Evan nods, he finds this interesting but a little confusing.
“Heellooo,” a voice calls.
The boys go over, a sweet smell fills the air. Basking in the sun is a humanoid snake. White with yellow and orange pattern.
“Hey, I know you, I know you, whosssssss thisssss?” The snake asks.
“This is Evan, he's Cynthia s son, he's chill.” Jax puts an arm around Evan.
The snake man holds out a scaly hand. “Nice to meet you, if you need sssssomething feel free to ssstop by to chat. I'm Keath”
Keath and Evan shake hands. Evan had been worried about the texture but this new friend was surprisingly smooth and cool. He smiles.
“Oh Crap! I told Celine we could meet her soon! Thanks Keath, talk to you later! To the witch's house my boys!” Lu waves as he walks away. Evan and Jax say bye and follow.
“So you said witch? I thought they disappeared?” Evan questions as they walk at a more quicker speed.
“You don't see them often, they are still around just not as out and open ya know?” Jax replied.
They reach a house on a hill where the forest sands behind it. Its old and dark.
Lu knocks on the door.
“Yes yes I'm here I'm- oh hi boys!” The girl is about their age, dark hair with a red colored strand on the right and a blue colored strand on the left. Her hair is in a ponytail. She adjusts her eyepatch. “So you're Evan, nice to meet ya, I'm Celine.” She offers her hand.
Evan takes the offer and shakes it.
Celine stumbles back in shock, “whoa!”
“D-did I do something wrong?” Evan stutters.
Celine looks at had and Lu. “Does he know?”
Lu and Jax shake their heads.
“Know what!?” Evan hates being in the dark about things especially if he is involved.
“Come in ,come in, you are going to want to sit down, and you must be hungry. I made cookies.” She waves her hand and enters the house. The boys follow with Evan being insanely confused.
They reach a large room with a large round table with a crystal ball on it. Next to it are tarot decks.
“Sit my friends, I'll be right back.” Celine snaps her fingers as four seats appear around the table. She exits.
The boys sit. Jax seems incredibly excited. “You're going to love this!” he says.
Am I? Thinks Evan.
Celine returns to the room with a plate of cookies with little chocolate stars on them. She places the plate on the table and sits.
“Ok,” she breathes. “Evan Ghost. You have major power within you. Your mother was a part of a group of warriors called the Chaos Keepers. She, along with Lu's mother and Jax father, closed the rift to the Negative. Do you know about the Negative?”
Evan shakes his head.
“The Negative is an alternate dimension made of pure negativity. There is an evil queen who rules and every handful of years attempts to break out and come to our world.”
Evan can't believe what he is hearing. What, no, that cant be. Why would mom hide this from me?
Celine starts again. “The rift is opening again. There was a reason you came here. You three are destined to save us from negativity.”
