The house of madness

Chapter six: the team

Hailey and Brutus followed Marvelo. He was leading them to where their team was meeting. Hailey was excited about the mission. “I can’t wait to start!” Hailey told Brutus. Brutus nodded. “Hopefully they have food.” Brutus said. Marvelo scoffed. “Always thinking about your stomach aren’t you Brutus?” Marvelo asked, sarcasm dripping from each word. “Oh cheer up Marv! It’s not like YOU are in the team besides you’re just a butler.” Hailey said. Brutus and Hailey snickered. Marvelo set his jaw at the use of her nickname for him and the fact she had called him a “butler”. “I am NOT a butler Hailey, and actually I am part of the team. I’m the leader.” Marvelo said. Hailey gaped at him. “What?” Marvelo ignored her and continued walking. Hailey and Brutus exchanged looks and then continued following Marvelo. They walked until they came to a medium sized room with a round table in the middle. Strange people were sitting at it. “This is Camille..” Marvelo said, motioning to a woman with auburn hair and blue eyes, had black mascara around her eyes and had large black feathery wings sprouting from her back. “This is Daniel..” Marvelo pointed to a man with brown hair and green eyes had swords strapped to his back. “This is Willow..” Marvel motioned to a woman with long black curls and green eyes. “And last and definitely least…Jaron. You know him.” Hailey tan over to Jaron. “Jaron! How are you and how’s Peggy?” Hailey asked. Peggy stuck her head out of Jaron’s jacket. “Oh I’m PERFECTLY fine…EXCEPT FOR THE FACT THAT I’M STUCK INSIDE THIS MOLDY JACKET! I’M GONNA DIE OF SUFOCATION ” Peggy exclaimed angrily. Brutus walked up, licking his lips. “If you want to die I can take care or you.” Brutus said. Peggy scrunched her nose. “No thanks. I’d rather die of suffocation.” Marvelo cleared his throat. “Can we focus? Now I was saying…you have all been chosen for this special mission because of each of your abilities…or not abilities. These are our targets.” Marvelo said showing them two photos. Here was a woman and a man. One was a brunette with dark green eyes and the man had shoulder length jet black hair and light green eyes. “We have intel that they are staying in a city called cliffside city with a elf woman named Autumn and her husband. We are to capture the targets and bring them back here. They used to be part of this team until they betrayed us. We need to bring them in ALIVE.” Marvelo said.
