As they ran towards the commotion, there was already a crowd gathered around outside of the cabin.
"Out of the way!" Alastair shouted.
"What makes you so special?!" A boy snarled, blocking the two.
Alastair let out a sigh as he slowly began to remove his eyepatch.
"So your eye is weird; what does that have to do with-"
"Just get out of the way!" Alastair huffed, shoving the boy aside as he made his way towards the cabin.
"You jerk...!" The boy cried.
"My apologies..." Rachael muttered as she quickly followed Alastair.
As they got to the entrance, a counselor was blocking the door.
"Yeesh, what's with you people..." Alastair grumbled.
"We're here to help...!" Rachael exclaimed.
"Help...?" The counselor questioned.
Just then, another scream came from inside the cabin.
"Move!" Alastair cried as he slammed the cabin door open.
"Good grief..." Alastair muttered.

Alastair whispered."Rach, you stay here, and when that song you know I like comes on, that's your cue to start the process of sealing, okay?"Rachael cocked her head."You mean that song with the bad words...?""My Lonely Vision by Six Feet Under Conversations!" Alastair exclaimed."Just listen for the title of the song in the lyrics, okay?!" He cried."Fine, but stop yelling at me!" Rachael demanded as she proceeded to stick her tongue out."Good grief..."

She mumbled."She wanted me to live for her sake because she died so young, and yet here I am!" The spirit began choking up."I broke my promise to her all for some momentary bliss...!"
