5 Possession

"Thank you." Larkin said, smiling.

"About the troublesome spirit..." He began.

"This spirit has been known to possess those who still living, he's kind of like...an outlaw of sorts in the spirit world, so to speak." Larkin looked at Vera, as if to make sure she was still following along.

"W-What can I do to help...?" Vera asked.

Larkin closed his eyes and gave a smile.

"Ah..." He looked at Mim and chuckled nervously.

"W-What is it?" Vera looked at him.

"He can cause great harm if he possesses just the right person," Larkin paused.

"You may or may not be aware, but your ability permits you to...get rid of him so to speak."

Vera looked at him.

"H-how do I know that I can trust you...how do I know you're not just saying this...?"

Larkin shrugged.

"I suppose that's fair, I wasn't the most trustworthy during my time spent alive."

"Oi."

Vera quickly looked up.

"N-Nori...!" She smiled.

"Sorry, I kind of forgot you were here!" She laughed.

However, Norio kept a cold gaze down at her.

"N-Nori...?"

Vera smiled nervously.

"Give me your eye patch." He ordered.

Vera looked at him, then down.

"S-sure..." She said, reaching in her pocket.

"Oi, Vera wait!" Larkin cried.

But it was too late.

Norio tore the eye patch up into pieces.

Vera's eyes widened.

"N-Norio!" She cried.

Norio smirked.

"Heh..." He then turned to Larkin.

"Trynna get rid a' me, huh?"

Vera whipped her head around.

"Well, I'd like to see you pry this body from my cold dead grip." He said, as he roared with laughter.
