After three days, Richard was still in the hospital. Some strangers had found him unconscious in the middle of the street. When he finally woke up after a long sleep, he found his mother standing beside him.As soon as she noticed he was awake, she exclaimed, "Doctor, he woke up! Darling, what happened to you? I was so worried!"With a scared voice, Richard asked, "You found me in the cave, right?"Jean, noticing his frightened tone, replied, "A cave? There are no caves in Nevada. Are you okay, son? Some people saw you on the street and called the police."Richard shook his head, trying to make sense of it all. "It's okay. I think that was just a dream. But the nurses didn't see the wound on my shoulder because I didn't see any bandage on it!"Jean looked him over, saying, "Let me see." She examined both his shoulders and found nothing. "There is no wound anywhere, darling! I think you have to rest after the doctor checks on you."The doctor soon came in, checked on Richard, and said, "Hey, brave boy, you seem okay. You can go home tomorrow, but there is one condition: you must take your pills without stopping until you finish them and come back for a follow-up."Richard, with a relieved expression, asked, "Thanks, doctor. I want to go back home as soon as possible. But can I ask you something?"The doctor nodded, "Yeah, of course."Richard placed his right hand on his heart and asked, "Why is my heart beating so fast? And also, why do I feel like my brain is so clear and focused?"The doctor glanced at Richard's mother before replying, "I know about the heart beating. It's probably normal, but if it continues for more than a day, we'll look into it. As for your brain, concentration is the mental process of focusing your mind on a single thought or task. In some ways, our brains are like computers. We receive data, process it, compute thoughts, and verbalize information. Sometimes our concentration doesn't perform the way we expect."Richard interrupted, "Doctor, please, talk in a simple English." The doctor chuckled, "It means your brain is trying to solve what happened to you before this. We'll leave you to rest now, and you and I will talk later."The doctor left, and Jean followed, leaving Richard to rest and ponder the strange events that had brought him to this point.Richard was walking on the sidewalk, heading home with his mother, when suddenly, she disappeared. Panic surged through him as he began yelling her name, searching. There was no trace of her or any other human being. The streets were eerily silent, devoid of cars or any noise.Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a man approaching, his face hidden in the shadows. As the man drew nearer, Richard felt a growing sense of unease, his heart pounding faster with each step the stranger took. The man passed him without a word and continued on his way.Hopeless for answers, Richard called out, "Who are you?"The man replied cryptically, "There is no more me or you; we are one now."Confused and apprehensive, Richard stepped closer to the man and lifted his head to see his face. What he saw made him stumble back in shock. It was his mother's face staring back at him. She spoke softly, "Richard, wake up."With a start, Richard awoke, his mother's voice echoing in his mind, leaving him to wonder if it had all been just a dream or something far more unsettling.Three hours later, Richard had a shower, calling out, "Mom, where are you?" There was no response. He got dressed and stood in front of the mirror, feeling a wave of fear as memories of the cave resurfaced.Trying to calm himself, Richard muttered, "That was just a bad dream, like all the others."A voice suddenly spoke, "Oh, come on, you believe that so easily? That's a bad habit."Richard screamed and ran from the mirror, shouting, "Please, not again! This is my home, not your cave."The voice replied, "You can call me Green Spirit. Do you think I can only freeze you in front of a mirror? I am inside you now. If I wanted to stop your heart, I could do it easily."Terrified, Richard asked, "Inside me? How? Why?"The Green Spirit laughed, "Too many questions." Richard paused, then said, "You won't kill me because...?"The Green Spirit answered, "I heard your question in your head before you said it. You don't need to speak out loud. And the reason I won't kill you is simple: I need your help."Richard asked, "But why me?"The Green Spirit replied, "You're the one who came to me and broke the curse that kept me in that cave for decades."Just then, the door opened, and Richard hurried over. He found his mother, with Maddison behind her, holding flowers and smiling.Jean said, "Oh, honey, look who came to see you."Maddison stepped forward, "Hi, how do you feel, Richard? I was really scared about you and I'm glad you're okay."Richard smiled, "Thanks, Maddy. I'm happy you're here."Maddison handed him the flowers and sat down, "I'm really sorry I didn't come to see you in the hospital. I had a lot of exams."Richard replied, "It's okay. I was sleeping most of the time. I was just about to have a cup of coffee. Do you want to join me?"Maddison laughed, "Oh, I can't. I'm at my friend's house and haven't seen him in a while. Ooh come on sure, let's have that coffee."As they chatted, Richard knew the voice in his head was real but tried to forget about it for a while.Richard and Maddison had a good time together, but on the way back, they were confronted by a group of thugs. One of them taunted, "Oh baby, call for Batman. Just give me what you have and go, leave the girl with us."Richard stepped forward, "Let us go, or you'll regret it."Maddison grabbed his arm, pleading, "Please, don't do anything stupid. You just got out of the hospital."Richard, panicking internally, spoke to the spirit in his mind, "Would you help me, please? There are too many of them."The Green Spirit replied, "Oh, now you remember me? Thought you were trying to forget about me." "Please, help me with this, and I'll do whatever you ask," Richard begged.The Green Spirit sighed, "Don't start crying. I'm not great with punches, but I have power. You don't want to let it out in front of your girlfriend. Just focus and let me take control."Richard took a deep breath and said, "Maddy, step back and trust me."With the spirit's guidance, Richard moved with surprising skill, dispatching the thugs with swift, precise kicks and punches. Maddison watched in awe, her eyes wide with wonder.When it was over, Maddison stammered, "Tha...that was incredible. Are you some kind of vigilante, or did I misunderstand you?"Richard, avoiding her question, quickly took her hand and led her away, eager to leave the confrontation behind.Richard got home and found that his mother had already gone to bed. He quietly made his way to his room and closed the door behind him.The Green Spirit's voice echoed in his mind, "My part of the deal is done. Now it's your turn."Richard sat on the edge of his bed and asked, "How did you do that? I thought you'd show up and fight them yourself."The Green Spirit replied, "I can, but I'm stronger when I inhabit a human body."Richard sighed, "So what now? Are you going to stay inside me forever?""No," the Green Spirit answered. "I need to find my friend who can open the gate to my world.""Your world?" Richard asked, his curiosity piqued. "Are there other worlds where spirits live?""There are many worlds, not just one," the Green Spirit explained. "And no, it's not just spirits. There are humans and many other kinds of creatures. The important thing now is to find her, and I promise you, once she opens the gate for me, I'll leave you."Richard hesitated for a moment before agreeing, "Okay, deal. I hope I won't regret this."With that, Richard lay down and went to bed, hoping for a dreamless sleep.Early the next morning, Richard was abruptly awakened by the Green Spirit's voice. "Come on, wake up," it commanded, making Richard's body stand up involuntarily."Oh, come on, it's too early... and how am I standing?" Richard groaned."We won't find her behind the door. We need to keep looking for her sign," the Green Spirit replied."Okay, but I already regret this deal," Richard muttered.As they walked, Richard asked, "So who is this woman we're looking for?"The Green Spirit replied, "Like every woman you've seen before.""Come on, you know what I mean," Richard said, a smile creeping onto his face. "Besides, you have power. Why not open the gate yourself?""If I had that kind of power, I wouldn't have been stuck in that cave for decades," the Green Spirit retorted. "Be smart for once. The woman we're looking for is a witch and a friend of mine named Mia Caligari. She swore an oath to keep her promise for 'Spirits in the Pleasure,' so she will help me.""'Spirits in the Pleasure'? What is that?" Richard asked, confused."You wouldn't understand. Just forget it. That's our thing. Now keep quiet for a few minutes," the Green Spirit snapped.They spent hours wandering around, searching for clues but found nothing. Richard, growing frustrated, asked sarcastically, "Are we looking for a ghost? There are no footprints or anything to guide us.""She can hide better than ghosts sometimes," the Green Spirit replied."Sometimes?" Richard echoed, but there was no response.They continued searching until midnight, finally returning home exhausted. Richard, his stomach growling, complained, "This is the worst day ever. I haven't eaten anything since morning, and my feet feel like they're on fire. I don't even want to talk; I just want to eat and go to sleep."Richard woke up to the sound of his mother's voice, talking to someone on the phone. He opened his door quietly and began sneaking out of the house. Once outside, he carefully closed the door behind him.The Green Spirit spoke up, "Your actions are like every teenager—sneaking out to smoke, meet bad friends, or hang out with girls. Oh, boy.""I just want to avoid talking to my mother about the job she wants me to get," Richard replied. "I know everything she's doing while she tries to keep it secret from me."The Green Spirit said, "Humans have too many emotions and think about everything in too much detail. Come on, live in the moment, and leave the future to the future."Richard, sitting in front of the door, sighed, "I just feel like my life will never amount to anything successful."The Green Spirit, trying to end the conversation, said, "I'll tell you just one thing: the road to success is always under construction. Now, get up. We need to look for the witch while we still have time.""While we still have time?" Richard echoed."There is a guardian of the spirits named the Grey Scorpion," the Green Spirit explained. "The moment I left that cave, he knew about me. When he decides to come after me, he will. So, we need to keep looking for the witch before he arrives.""So, he'll put you back in the cave if he catches you?" Richard asked."Start walking first," the Green Spirit replied.Richard stood up. "I just need to go to the barbershop to tell my boss I'm quitting and to get my last payment."He began walking toward the barbershop, and as he did, they continued discussing the situation.On the road, Richard spotted the three bullies and mentioned them to the Green Spirit. Sarcastically, the Green Spirit said, "Oh, I owe them, because of them I'm out of that cave now."With an angry tone, Richard replied, "I want to teach them a lesson so they stay out of my way permanently."Sensing Richard's anger, the Green Spirit stopped laughing and asked, "So, what will I get in return?"Richard thought for a moment and then said, "I'll be more serious about looking for your friend."The Green Spirit replied, "Oh, I can make you be more serious by force, but anyway, you got it. Now, you will see a small part of my power and—"Richard interrupted him, saying he wanted the bullies to see him while he beat them, so he wanted to do it with punches, nothing more. The Green Spirit agreed, "You got it."Richard walked toward the bullies and said, "Hey clowns, robbed anyone else yet?"One of the three sneered, "No, we were waiting for a fool like you to come across."Richard faced the bullies and said, "I'll make sure all of you learn a new lesson."The three bullies exchanged evil smiles, with one of them taunting, "We won't be mad if you run away from us again."Holding back his punches, Richard responded, "I assure you, it'll be you guys running this time—if I let you, of course."With that, he struck the one in the middle and kicked him, leaving the others frozen in shock. In moments, all three bullies were on the ground, injured and bewildered.Richard, still fueled by anger, said to the Green Spirit, "That's not enough."Suddenly, he noticed two police officers approaching. Attempting to escape, he found himself halted by one officer who pointed a gun at him and commanded him to stop.Two hours later, the cell door creaked open, and the guard called Richard's name. "Come out," the guard instructed.Richard, puzzled, muttered to himself—or rather to the Green Spirit—"I don't get it. I just got to the police station. How are they setting me free after only two hours, maybe even less?"The Green Spirit assumed, "Maybe your family has some influence in this city."The guard led Richard down the corridor to an office. When the door opened, Richard saw a woman he didn't recognize. She was pretending to know him. Richard was about to tell the police officer that he had no idea who she was, but the Green Spirit interrupted him."Let's get out of the police station first," the spirit advised. "You'll find out who she is soon enough."Richard realized the woman was explaining to the police officer that he had anger management issues. Strangely, the officer believed her without question. Richard interrupted, "Sir, I'm not what she just said. I did that to those three boys on purpose."The police officer remained calm and said, "It's okay, no problem."As Richard left the office, he whispered to the Green Spirit, "Is she the woman you're looking for?" The Green Spirit didn't respond.Outside the police station, Richard confronted the woman, "Why did you help me? Why did you lie and say you knew me? Besides, I wanted to stay behind bars. I don't want to go back home, not now."The woman replied, "Firstly, I didn't help you. I'm here for the Green Spirit, and I assume he's inside you now. I heard you talking to him and I heard his voice."The Green Spirit spoke up, "Richard, this is Mia Caligari, the woman I was looking for. Don't start yelling or anything. I'll explain everything. She convinced the police officer you were innocent using her powers."Richard, showing no reaction, started walking away but stopped when Mia Caligari asked, "Green Spirit, what's the plan now? What do you want to do?"Richard turned around, and the Green Spirit said through him, "I want to go back to my world. I have nothing to do here, and the last thing I want is to stay in this world another minute."Richard tried to repeat what the Green Spirit said, but Mia Caligari interrupted him. "I will help you, of course, but you have to know that I lost my black jewelry."Richard insisted, "You can search for your jewelry after you help him get out of here."Mia Caligari laughed, walked toward her car, and got in. Richard followed her to the car, and she told him, "Go find the black jewelry and I will find you."The Green Spirit pleaded, "Mia, you know you have to help me, right?" But she drove away without answering his question.Richard was heading home when he saw Maddison coming towards him with her usual smile. As she noticed Richard, she quickened her pace. Richard froze, unable to move. When she reached him, he said, "It's been a while, Maddison. Where have you been?""I was at your house a few minutes ago. Your mother told me you hadn't come home since this morning," Maddison replied.Richard, realizing he had lost track of time, asked, "What time is it now?"Maddison, noticing his confusion, answered, "It's 4:30 PM. Richard, what happened to you?"Richard started walking again and said, "Nothing, I just lost track of time. Sorry, I have to go. See you tomorrow?"Maddison nodded silently, watching him leave before heading her own way.(6 hours earlier)Jean said on the phone, "Jackson, I asked you to look for a sponsor for me, not a bunch of them. No, just hear me out. If you can't help me with that, it means I don't need you anymore. I don't want excuses. Bye for now." Jean decided it was time to tell Richard about the job and convince him to take it. She started walking up the stairs to Richard's room, opened the door, and began looking for him, but he wasn't there. She muttered to herself, "Where did he go without telling me? I hope he's okay."(5 hours later)Maddison said, "Come on, Father, I'll be back in 15 minutes. Why are you stopping me from going for a walk?" Her father replied, "Maddison, I know where you are going, so at least be honest with me just once." Maddison sighed and said, "Okay, okay, I'm going to see a friend of mine. He was sick, so I want to check if he's okay. Besides, I'm not a child anymore; I can look after myself." Her father, with a smile, said, "Okay." Maddison had been expecting him to decline, so his answer surprised her. She left home, puzzled but relieved.She knocked on the door and started calling Richard's name. When the door opened, Jean was there. Maddison said, "Hi, is Richard okay? Can I see him?" Jean replied, "Hi, I'm fine, thanks for asking." Maddison, slightly embarrassed, said, "I'm sorry, that was my bad. Is everything okay with you as well?" Jean, smiling, said, "It's okay, I'm joking with you, sweetie. Thanks for asking, I'm good, but Richard's not home. I don't know where he's been since morning. I thought he might be with you. Did you abduct him and are now demanding a ransom?" Maddison, smiling, said, "You got it. I want a million of your cookies if you want to see your son again." Jean laughed and said, "Okay, you got it. Sorry for keeping you out here. Come in and let's have a cup of tea and cookies." Maddison declined, saying she had to go somewhere else and get back home. She said goodbye and left.(2 hours later)Richard finally reached home. When he got in, he saw his mother sitting near the door, waiting for him. Richard said, "I'm home, Mother," and started walking up the stairs toward his room. Jean called after him, "At least come and sit with me for a few minutes. Or do I not deserve that?" Richard paused, hearing his mother's words, and sat down with her. Jean looked at him and said, "Richard, where have you been all day without a word? Maddison came by asking for you a few hours ago." Richard nodded and said, "Yeah, I know. I met her on the road, and she told me. I just went for a walk. I was thinking about quitting the job at the barbershop, but I didn't stop by." Jean leaned closer and said, "Speaking of work, I want to tell you something." Richard cut her off, saying, "Come on, Mother! I know everything. I heard what you're planning to do. I don't want that job. I want to succeed at something with my own effort, not yours."Jean, anger rising, slapped him and said, "That's impolite of you to say. I did all this for you, for us, and you don't want anything to do with it? Tell me, do you want a stranger to be the keeper of the shop? Someone I don't trust, stealing from us, from our money?" Richard, holding his cheek, said, "Your money, not our money." He stood still as Jean said, "You're not even twenty yet, so there's no sense in what you're saying. You dropped out of school, and I didn't say anything. But now you will listen to me, and you will get that job, even if by force. Do you understand?" Richard turned towards the stairs and said, "Okay, Mother."Jean, realizing she had hit her son for the first time, thought to herself, "His father always stopped me from hitting him. This is on me that he is going to remember his father's place and everything about him, I should go talk to him."Richard closed the door, lay on his bed, and said, "Green Spirit, what's the plan now? How are we going to find that jewelry?" The Green Spirit replied, "All I know is that she can't help us without it. That jewelry is the core of her power, so without it, her power is weak." Richard, with tears on his cheeks, said, "You know, this is the first time my mother hit me. I didn't know how to react when she did." The Green Spirit said, "I don't have the emotions to tell you anything comforting, but I felt something uncomfortable when she hit you. I don't know what that is, but it's not good at all." Richard said, "My father was..." His words were interrupted by a knock on the door. He opened it to see his mother, Jean, standing there. She said, "May I come in?" Richard nodded his head while she was already entering and sitting beside him. She said, "Richard, I'm sorry. I just don't want anyone to disrespect you while I'm alive. I know without you saying it that what's happening at your job isn't good, but at least start the job with us. If you feel uncomfortable with the job afterward, you can quit, okay?" Richard nodded his head, accepting her words, and hugged her. Jean, with a smile on her face, said, "I'm going to let you rest now, and we'll talk tomorrow. Goodnight."Richard woke up at 7:00 am, got dressed, and went out. The Green Spirit asked, "Is there any place with a high view in the city?" Richard, thinking and walking further from his house, told him about the Palazzo, adding that they couldn't get in because of high security. The Green Spirit said, "Let's go to that place and leave the rest to me."When they reached the Palazzo, Richard stood outside, looking at the tall building. "Here we are in front of the Palazzo. So now what do you want to do here?" Richard asked. The Green Spirit replied, "I will go up there and search for the jewelry now. I just need you to do one thing: close your eyes." Richard, wondering why, said, "Why...?" The Green Spirit interrupted him and said, "Just do it without more questions." When Richard closed his eyes, he started smelling smoke, but not heavy. The Green Spirit said, "Now open your eyes." Richard found himself on the roof of the Palazzo. The Green Spirit added, "No questions and just shut up." Suddenly, Richard's arms stretched out, lying in the air, and he didn't know what was happening. Green smoke started getting out of his hands. Richard stood in that situation for a few minutes. After that, the Green Spirit said, "Let's go home now. There's no point in staying here or searching for it in this city."Meanwhile, Maddison was arguing with her father. "Why do you do this to me?" she asked. He replied, "You always ask me about my work and my family. That doesn't concern you." With those words, he left the house. Maddison lay on the ground and started crying, saying to herself, "Why? Why is my life so miserable? I wish my life was better than now. Why is this happening to me? My father leaves home so early and comes back late every day." Maddison's mother died the day she was born, and since then, she has lived in an orphanage for two years. A man came and adopted her. She has no siblings or a woman to look after her. The man who adopted her is never home, and they talk only when she asks about her mother or his family. Even though she has friends, she feels lonely. Her thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door. When she opened it, she found her friend Alina. Maddison asked her to come in, but Alina said, "No, you have to come with me. Let's hang out together." Maddison, needing to leave her thoughts for a while, accepted and went to hang out with her friend.Richard was walking among the trees when he found a trail of broken glasses towards him and decided to follow it, while he was walking he started hearing voices asking him to stay away, but he kept moving anyway, that was when he found a lake beside the cave, the same one he was in and he decides to enter the cave and on the way, he stopped when Richard saw a shining thing in the lake afterward he went toward it to collect it and it was the black jewelry, with noises around him, he starts looking where the voice came from and that when he saw a bench of grey scorpions attacks him.Richard woke up from the dream drowning with his sweat and said " green spirit I know where the jewelry is " after that he told green spirit what he dreamt of, but green spirit answered with cold blood " emm what I discovered that you fear scorpions that all and about the jewelry is just you was thinking of it because it been 2 weeks searching for it " Richard while he is walking toward his desk and said " you don't get it, those, not ordinary scorpions there are grey ones " green spirit said " and what the problem about the color" after he finished his words he realizes what Richard is meaning about it, Richard said " so you know what I mean or no, I think there is a sign that he stole the jewelry so you won't Run away, is there any place that we can find him " green spirit said " no but there is a place he can find us in it ,when I was on the palazzo roof I discovered that place in the city, it like a bar for mages and they called it Deep tooth Nest" Richard said with a happy face " okay we have to go to it now " , Richard left the house with fearful face and happy as well when Maddison saw him going the other way and called him but he didn't answer but she followed him."But you have to know, it's dangerous there, they don't allow spirits there and he won't be there, but if he feels that I am trying to get in, that's when he will show up, " green spirit said, Richard while walking fast said " okay no problem for me, the important thing that we deal with this " The Green spirit replied " if you think he will give us the jewelry freely so that means you a dump, " Richard said, " so how I knew the place without visiting it before?" The Green Spirit said "It is simple I gave your brain instructions, so do you see that Restaurant, that is the place " Richard replied "Bu...." The Green spirit interrupted him and said "The bar underneath it", Richard went to it and entered the place. "do you see that man beside that door, that is the door the one, " The Green spirit said, Richard started walking toward him when the man stopped him and asked him to leave but Richard tried harder and fought him until he felt a hand grab him and throw him away from the door, that when The Green spirit said "it been a while Grey scorpion ", The Grey scorpion grabbed Richard to outside the Restaurant and said " I let you have fun in this world and I stopped myself from getting you back to the cave but you are trying to cross the lines ", Richard while he is trying to stand up and said " you look weaker than what The Green spirit said about you " The Grey scorpion didn't like what he said about him and start punching him when he heard a voice said " dad stop, what are you doing he is my friend? " That was when he turned and saw his daughter Maddison standing behind him and she completed "Are you beating him because he is seeing me or what " With a Shocked face Richard stood up and said " Your father!!...your daughter!!" grey scorpion said " Maddison go home now, I don't want another word from you " with completing his words Maddison turned and walks without reaction. Richard tried to catch her up but The Grey scorpion stopped him with a punch on the face. The Grey scorpion with magic moves the jewelry that appears on his hand and says, " I knew you would go looking for Caligari, poor spirit, besides, I assume you were looking for this right, I know you came here just to see me, and take the jewelry but how did you know that I have it ". Richard with standing from the ground said " I saw it in a dream and ..." The Green spirit interrupted him and said " there is no time for talking, Richard we have to take it from him, let me have the control " when completing the sentence Richard attacks The Grey scorpion and green smoke appears on his hands and flooded him with The Grey scorpion' eyes watching him , Richard disappear and showed up including attacking him from behind added to it he was holding a green sword on his right hand but The Grey scorpion dived and said " ooh green spirit you are slower and weaker than before I think you will be back at that cave tonight " with closing the conversation he attacked him with magic power on the shape of a blue ball, at the same time The Green spirit attacks back with a green one as well and disappear and with The Grey scorpion's eyes looking for him, Richard appear the half of him from the ground and stole the jewelry from his hands, on the other hand The Grey scorpion attacked him, but Richard image faded away , The Grey scorpion said with himself "just run, I will catch you eventually ".Richard while running said " Green spirit, so where are we going to meet her? We don't have much time until he finds us " The Green spirit said, "Let's go home and you will have to eat, to get your energy back, because, I consumed most of your body's energy." And with no word from Richard, he headed home.Richard got home when he found a woman with his mother talking and walked to his room when his mother Jean started calling him and said "Come to meet this is Mrs. Jasmine, she owns a company that will be sponsoring our work" With Richard reaching her and with shocked face discovered that she is Mia Caligari, but tried to hide his reaction and said " its nice to meet you Mrs. Jasmine " Mia Caligari said " You didn't mention that you have such a handsome boy, he can be our new marketing' face " jean smiles but Richard gave no reaction and said " sponsor?! What will benefit us and what is that" Caligari said with a smile " Okay I can explain, it is a business relationship between a provider of funds, resources, or services and an individual, event, or organization that offers in return some rights and associations that may be used for commercial advantage, Mrs. Bastian can I take your son for a walk in our company and let him see how we run our company " jean with a happy accent said " yes with pleasure besides Richard owns half of our work as well so you can close the deal with him " with completing her words Richard with an unconfident voice said " Come on, mom you know that I can't even if you say so " jean said " why not? What do you have to lose if you tried? , just do it, Come on! I'm behind you 100%, so you have to believe in yourself, you can change everything, follow your path to your dreams, and do the impossible because the sky is the limit so egg on." with her words, Richard with a smiling face answered, " Thanks mother we will go now ".Richard got in the car with Caligari gave her the jewelry and said that she had to do her part now, Caligari said " Right so we have to let The Green Spirit lead us to the cave " With finishing here words The Green Spirit said "What! You don't know where the cave is? I thought you know. besides..." Caligari interrupted him and said "Wait for a second, are you seriously thinking that I know a place that mages hide it from all the world and I can figure it out where is it, " The Green spirit with an angry accent said "So you telling me that I confront grey scorpion for nothing! How I'm supposed to know where it is? Emm wait for a second, Richard you know where the cave is you who came to me that day!! " Richard said with a clear tune " I don't know where the cave is, we don't have any forest near to our neighborhood and I was close to my neighborhood when I found myself in front of the forest " Mia stopped the car and said " you have to find the cave if you want me to help you and when you find it I will be there as well, now go " with Richard closing the door Caligari went fast away and Richard said " well, I will go now home and we will figure out how we are going to find where the cave located.Richard entered his house to find it in disarray—mirrors shattered, the place a mess—but he searched only for his mother. He heard her weak voice call out, "Richard, is that you?" Rushing to her, he found her face bruised, a knife mark on her hand. Anger welled up as he demanded, "Mother, who did this to you?" Jean, in pain, replied, "I don't know them, son. Three teenagers came looking for you. Please, Richard, stay away. I don't want them to hurt you." Richard recognized the culprits but controlled his rage, reassuring his mother before calling an ambulance and taking her to the hospital. He stayed by her side until the doctor assured him she would recover.Leaving the hospital with a determined look, Richard confronted the Green Spirit, demanding control of its power. The Spirit warned him, "You can't. You'll die if you use it. You haven't eaten since morning." Ignoring the warning, Richard ran, vowing revenge.At Marco's place, the bullies planned further crimes. Spotting Richard charging towards them, one taunted, "There he is, coming for payback after seeing what we did to your house." Richard attacked in silence, green smoke emanating from his hands. "I won't forgive any of you," he declared. He fought fiercely, overpowering them. As one tried to speak, Richard struck him down. Exhausted, he caught his breath.One bully, desperate, hit Richard from behind,trying to knock him out. Unfazed, Richard turned, hands now holding a largegreen sword. With a swift motion, he severed the bully's head. Shocked, theother two froze in terror. Richard dropped the sword, horrified by his actions.He fled, the Green Spirit asking in disbelief, "How did you do that?"Running, Richard denied intent to kill, unsure of summoning the sword. The Spirit insisted, "You summoned the Great Comet Fell's sword." Confused, Richard reached the familiar forest. The Spirit urged him loudly to keep running towards the cave, guiding him onward."Finally, we are here," the Green spirit said while Richard was beside the entrance of the cave, and a voice from inside said, "Am I going to wait for both of you more?" When Richard entered the cave saw Caligari there lying down on the ground The Green spirit said " I knew you were aware of the cave's place why you didn't tell us about it? " Caligari said while she was standing up from the ground "It's not my decision to make, the cave that has it, so if he wants to let you find it or not ".The Green Spirit pleaded with Mia Caligari to open the gate quickly, sensing the impending danger from The Grey Scorpion's accusations. As she struggled with the gate, The Grey Scorpion taunted Richard, questioning the consequences of his association with the Spirit. "How does it feel to take a life, Richard? You didn't just kill him; you beheaded him. Such a tragedy," he sneered, hoping to sway Richard against the Spirit.Defiant, Richard retorted, "I don't care about his past or what he's done. I just want him out of my body." Caligari, focused on her task, urged the Spirit to hurry. "Come on, Green Spirit, it's time to leave the boy's body. The gate is ready," she said urgently.The Grey Scorpion seized the moment to expose the Spirit's dark history. "Do you know why he was imprisoned in that cave? He possessed kings, started wars, and stole kingdoms' riches," he accused, hoping to provoke Richard into action against the Spirit.Interrupting, Richard remained resolute. "I don't care what he did or what he will do. Get out of my body," he demanded firmly.Caligari, struggling with the gate, urged the Spirit again, "Say goodbye, Green Spirit. The gate is open. Go now."The Spirit, now hesitating, bid farewell to Richard and prepared to depart. "Goodbye, Grey Scorpion. We'll meet again in Cadearus," he said, grateful to Richard for his help. "Thank you for everything," he added sincerely.But The Grey Scorpion, reveling in his power, revealed a terrible truth. "You don't understand, Green Spirit. Tesior cursed you. Once you possess a human, you can't leave unless you kill them," he declared, throwing a gun toward Richard.Fear and disbelief filled Richard as he struggled against the Spirit's control. "No, we had a deal! You promised to leave me alone once you found the witch and the gate," Richard protested, trying to resist the Spirit's influence.The Green Spirit, now in full control, forced Richard's hand towards the gun, immobilizing him. Richard, desperate, pleaded, "Are you really going to kill me?"The Spirit hesitated, torn between freedom and the curse that bound him. "I'm sorry, Richard," he murmured, his grip tightening on the gun.Richard's heart raced as he faced the impossible choice: death at the hands of the Spirit or the uncertain fate that awaited him if he survived.
