~CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE~

                                    

                                          

"Oh look, the two love birds have finally decided to grace us with their presence." 
Rolling your eyes, you jab back. "Oh shove it Swiss, we're two minutes late. Not like you told us very far in advance." Squinting your eyes to be able to see his figure with the blaring sun sitting behind him in the sky. 
"Whatever Nessa, just glad you two weren't doing...it when we got there." The slightly annoyed and tired ghoul let out, doing hand gestures in the air towards the end of his sentence. 
Just hoping to get a bit more sleep in the black cars while driving to the stadium, Mountain spoke out. "I call shotgun."
This threw both Swiss and Dew into a competition of trying to beat him to the two cars parked next to them. Even though the tall ghoul had absolutely no intention of riding in the front seat. 
"Mission accomplished." Was all he said as he hobbled over to the second car in the line of two. 
The first car holding Dew, Swiss, Cirrus, and Cumulus. But neither Dew nor Swiss got the front seat, as Copia went with them to "supervise" the two. The second car consisted of the remaining ghouls, You, Mountain, Whisp, and Phantom as Rain took the seat next to the driver. With all of the seating being figured out in less than five minutes, those inside the cars were off.
Forty Minutes Later :
Looking up from your phone's screen, you take note that Whisp is twiddling at her fingers. Not wanting her to feel any more nervousness, as the first show is tomorrow, you lean forward enough to speak with her. Mountain shifting slightly in your lap, his head turning a bit to face the back seat.
"What's your favorite song?" Turning her head to look at you, confusion written on her face. "Just humor me for a minute." Sending her a soft smile while trying to convince her.
"Umm, I mean I don't have a lot of favorites." She gave you a weary glance, but eased up once she saw you had no ill or odd intentions. "I quite like The Color Violet though."
"Tory Lanez? You know the song fits you well actually. Shockingly accurate." You start thinking off to yourself as you cap off your thoughts. "And you, Phantom? What's yours?"
Receiving a less weary, but still hesitant, look from the only awake male; as Rain had fallen asleep in the front seat like Mountain had. "The Neighborhood are pretty good, I like Sweater Weather the best though." 
Another gentle smile took over your face as he spoke for the first time. "Very fitting." 
Letting the silence consume the rest of the car for a little bit. Piping up out of practically nowhere, for no apparent reason. "Your colors are blue and purple." It wasn't a question, it was a statement. One that had absolutely no room for discussion.  
"What?" Came from a slightly startled Whisp, an equally confused Phantom pairing her stares at you. 
"Hm? Your colors, I don't know it's just like your overall color that I see you as. Whisp, you're blue. And Phantom, you're purple." Finishing your explanation, you make eye contact with the two human shifted ghouls. Only finding a tinge of confusion to be left, a look of awe and surprise shining through the brightest. 
"I do quite like purple..." Phantom spoke aloud, to no one in particular. 
"I am a big fan of blue..." Whisp mumbled to herself quietly. 
Offering a smile to the two, you lean back allowing Mountain to settle more into your lap. Letting out a small chuckle, you gently rake your fingers through his hair. "What can I say, I see what others cannot."
Once again letting the silence marinate in the air for a minute. "You two don't have to be so worried over the show. You'll both do great, even if you do have a little slip up. The fans are all really understanding, new things can be nerve racking. Just try your best and have fun." Ending with a sweet smile, the two others look as if they have had the weights lifted off their shoulders. 
At that, Whisp spoke up. "We've heard of your warm hospitality, but to actually be receiving it feels otherworldly. Thank you Miss Loynessa." 
Phantom nodding along while looking down at their intertwined hands. "Our mother always spoke highly of you as well, even if she only met you a handful of times when you were young."
"I give it to those I see fit to be presented with it, and just Nessa is fine hun." Responding to Whisp's comment, then turning to Phantom to ask him a few questions on the new topic. "Your mother knew me? You two are siblings?"
Blushing at his slip up, Phantom started slightly scrambling to talk. "Um- Well, yes I suppose we are-"
Rolling her eyes at the ghoul she's holding hands with, Whisp spoke in place for him. "We're twins, so yeah we are siblings. And our mother knew you because she worked for Satan, cleaning his home; setting the rooms and whatnot."
This shocked you a bit, as you surprisingly didn't have many encounters with the workers of Satan's home in the time you spent there. "She would go to work early in the mornings, and when she would come back home she would work around the house even more. Some days she didn't do anything when she got home, on those days we would ask her what she did and who she met with."
Phantom, who had now gathered his bearings, took his sister's silence as the que to continue on with the story. "She would have all these stories to tell us, though most of them were probably fake; made up to make us feel better I guess. You wouldn't pop up often, but when you did she would always talk about how kind you were. How you 'had the gentlest soul' and how you were a positive ball of fire." 
"Miss Para? I didn't know she had kids.." You say while smiling fondly, trailing off into a small train of thoughts. 
Earring smiles from both Whisp and Phantom, the female counterpart spoke up. "Mhmm, and she wasn't wrong about you either." 
Returning the gesture of giving a warm smile, it was silent for the remainder of the car ride there.
