Chapter 31: Danger lurking 2

"Some people spend their whole life living in lies and deception"

------------

Noworry really thought that Severus had gone mad. As per his knowledge of mortals he knew that people with weak hearts either die or go mad after seeing a ghost much less fighting. Noworry's thoughts ran wild but he dares not mention it in front of Severus. He was very well aware of the fact that Severs wasn't a weak person, but he still had some doubts regarding him.

Severus was aware that noworry didn't trust him fully but he was confident that it was only a matter of time before noworry trusted him fully so he didn't dwell on it instead he smiled brightly and said, "I smell a rat here."

[What rat? Ewwww. Is there a rat here? Is it alive or dead? If it is dead, then why can't I smell it?]

Severus"...."

"It was a reference dum bird"

Noworry [....]

Noworry pouted. He should not be blamed for not knowing mortal's idioms and references.

Noworry still felt aggrieved and with frustration and anger piling inside him he made a conviction.

[Someone doesn't want us to dig old skeletons] Noworry said with a conviction however Severus did not react to it.

"What if someone does want us to dig old skeletons?", Severus said out of the blue.

[Huh....now are you a dum mortal? What do you mean by it?] Noworry said arrogantly.

"Why do I feel you are just returning my lines? never mind I just don't believe that all this is a coincidence."

[What coincidences? Throw some light on this statement]

"Grandma turned ghost, this book, another ghost and the other book which I found in the house of an old woman. Didn't you feel like there was a connection?"

[Continue]

Severus"...."

"All these incidences seem like individual incidents but if you take a closer look you will see a story in them"

Noworry was completely focused now. He felt like this matter had something more than which meets the eye.

[What story?]

"Do you remember the massacre?"

[I do]

"According to old women, she was the daughter of the second survivor but as far as I know the second survivor never married."

Bam

Noworry's feather stood up. It was damn confusing now. He was not sure what to believe and what not to. [Fooook, what did you say? Never married, impossible. Didn't she say that she was the daughter of the last survivor?]

"Why should we trust her noworry. If your tiny bird brain is forgetting the let me tell you, Jane fooled everyone. Her entire life she fooled everyone that she was blind. Are we supposed to believe her words? If we do, then tell on what basis should we?", Severus questioned seriously.

[I know what you want to say and I totally understand it too but what benefits will she gain from lying to us?]

"Oh benefits. Noworry are we really talking about benefits. I totally didn't want to believe in it but I can't deny the truth."

[What do you mean? What truth? What denial?] noworry asked in burning curiosity.
