They froze at the reveal.  "B..but why..!?"

"I don't know.  I'm scared.  I don't want them to get you."

"I'm scared too..."

"...because if they get you..."

"...I don't want to know what will happen..."

"... you'll float too."

They sweated nervously.

"How am I supposed to avoid THEM?"

"I don't know..."

"...maybe if I lock the door to me and Azzie's room, we'll be okay...?"

"...I don't know..."

"...it's all I can do..."

"...hopefully it'll work."

"Yeah... I don't wanna float too..."

I looked down before wrapping my arms around her in a "hug."  They did the same to me.

"...I'll try to help..."

"...thanks..."

...unfortunately, it didn't work.

I wasn't able to help.
