Duff stared up at them from his spot on the ground, confusion showing in his face. Now, there were four people here, two of which seemed determined to bring both him and this girl, who he did not know the name of, to this ‘Manor’. The two also knew his name, which he was nervous about, and knew about his ‘powers’, which no one was supposed to know about. He bit his bottom lip, not knowing what to do. Logan, however, did know what to do. He let out a silent sigh, ruffled his hair a bit, and approached Duff. “So, are you going to come with us, or are you going to just sit there?” he asked, looking down at him expectantly with his arms crossed over his chest. Duff’s attention was shifted to Logan, who he looked up at with wide eyes. “Um... um...” he muttered, looking like a fish gaping for air. Logan just barely resisted rolling his eyes at Duff’s behavior. “Look, it’s not that hard. All you have to do is come with us, and everything will be just fine and dandy.” He waited for a moment for a response from Duff, but not getting one, decided to add to his statement. “Everyone there is like you, so you’ll fit in great. And you can go outside whenever you want, and...” he looked at Duff’s outfit “you get to wear what you want.” Duff contemplated for a moment, silently, looking a little distressed. “But, but, what about Daddy?” he stuttered in his odd little voice. He shook his head vigorously “No, no! I wanna stay with Daddy!” he whined, frowning deeply. Logan feigned disappointment. “Well, in that case,” he began, giving a fake sigh, “I guess I can’t do anything to change your mind.” He looked down at Duff with false sadness. “Come, your ‘daddy’ must be worried. I’ll bring you back to him.” He held out his hand to Duff. Duff, being gullible, was fooled by Logan’s act. “Okay...” he said, taking Logan’s hand and allowing himself to be pulled to his feet. He was still very confused about the situation, but was convinced that it was going to be over and done with now. Logan looked at Sens, nodded his head slightly to one side, and gave Duff’s hand a little squeeze and shake, communicating his actual intentions silently. “All right then, let’s go already!” |
