Chapter 17 - Spirit world

Staying still for a moment when The odd clothed man made his request Emma rushed to get off the dumpster nearly falling off she handed it to the odd clothed man.

The odd clothed man still had the chocolate ice cream and the spoon in his hand. An instant the ice cream and the spoon had disappeared. He had cleared his throat with a cough

"Thank you, your second job will be proving your will to revive your friend for me, but more thoroughly this time," the odd man ordered.

"So how will you prove yourself?" The odd clothed man inquired.

Emma had no idea how she could respond. She had thought that she already proved herself when the odd clothed man congratulated her for being so eager to start.

"Um, I don't know what to do though," Emma said, looking at the ground.

"Oh I know exactly what you can do to prove yourself, it will lead you to take another job though. Do you want to do it then?"

Emma didn't really have anything else to do so she couldn't think of a reason why not to do so. Afterall she was willing to do anything to revive Luna.

"Yes!" Emma said enthusiastically.

"Great, truly great," The odd clothed man replied.

"I'll tell you what the other job is when we get there,"

Get where? Emma had asked herself after hearing what the odd clothed man had said, and she wondered why was he keeping him ambushing the location secret?

"But first be a dear and come near me. I promise that I won't bite" The odd clothed man said.

Emma had gotten nearer to the odd clothed man and obeyed what he had to say.

"Alright, now repeat after me, I wish"

"I wish"

"To travel to the spirit world" The odd clothed man said.

"To travel to the spirit world", after hearing the spirit world Emma had wondered what that could be.

"Under," The odd-clothed man said.

"Under" Emma had repeated.

"The protection of &!@#@#@&&. "

Emma had been dumbstruck for a bit not even understanding what the odd clothed man said so she hadn't known what to say.

Seeing this, the odd clothed man slowed down a bit and repeated it for Emma so she could at least copy his lip movement.

"I wish to travel to the spirit world under the protection of &!@#@#@&&."

JUst when she had said that EMma felt her head become dizzy like she was about to pass out and she nearly did with Emma had been able to close her eyes. So she had done so through most of the time till the horrible feeling had gone away.

Opening her eyes, Emma was in a snowy forest with twisted trees facing every direction, and a pond in the center of it all; that was clear looking like it had remained untouched by the snow and cold.

Emma had no longer been in the dirty alley! She hadn't really even thought about what the spirit world and what it is anyways. Her curiosity had been completely blinded by the chance of resurrecting Luna, and now had resurfaced.

"Young gal I nearly forgot, would you mind giving me your name,?" The odd clothed man inquired.

"It's Emma," Emma said in a respectful tone.

"Emma, what I want you to do now is wait right here for a minute while I fetch something."
