Grimbold looked around the room. He enjoyed the energy that the youngsters had. the jokes, the sneers, the flirtations. It reminded him of his own youth. The time before he grew old and weary, and his heart heavy. He was in this business for a very long time now. Too long. He thought of the others that he had roamed the forests with. The group of which he was the only one left now.
Once he saw that everybody finished eating, he loudly cleared his throat and sat up straight. With his hands he held on to the corners of the table. "Boys! Girls! I want to welcome you again tonight on our full moon meeting. I hope you enjoyed the soup and tried the cakes that Daniel was so kind to bring." His deep voice bellowed through the room.
He paused and made sure everybody was paying attention.
"I'm also glad to see the newest member of our family is fitting right in. I expect everybody to make her feel at home. We look after each other."
From Angel, he shifted his attention to Nick who had just entered. He just looked at the boy in silence for a second, as if to ask why he was late, and what he was planning with the rabbit. But he didn't say anything about it. Then continued his speech to the group.
"We'll be visiting the shrine tonight. But before we do, I'm pretty sure you're all curious to hear what our next task is." He cleared his throat again.
"For each of you, I have a person that needs to be brought bad luck. Whatever you do to him or her is up to you, but they need to stay in their house next saturday. They're not supposed to go out. You could make them feel bad or scared, you could lock them in. Have them break their legs. It's up to you. But they can't leave the house coming saturday."
Grimbold looked around the room to make sure everybody understood what he was saying.
"You can help each other. Ask others for help if you need it.
These are your targets..." Grimbold started calling the names of everybody in the group. After every name, there was the name of their target. Some were familiar. Some weren't.
"Oh, and one more thing" Grimbold added after he had finished the list. "Keep your saturday evening free. You might get a phonecall with a request. Accept the offer."
He gave them some time to take it in.
With a much softer voice he ended: finish your soup, if you still need to. Sorry Nina, but we're changing again. Tonight we're learning. We'll be heading out in ten minutes.”
