Belle Adams' Butler

Barron looked at the man who stood not far away from them, looking at the deed they just did, "Your acquaintance?" he asked Lucas. 

"Something like that," Lucas replied, his calm black eyes looking at Mr. Robinson who looked just the way he had left him during the time in the forest, "What are you doing here?" asked Lucas to the man, "Came here to reminiscence when you were alive in the world?"

Barron then asked, "Half of his fingers are missing-"

"That's right, my fingers," Robinson raised both his hands up to show only four fingers that were there in total, "I have come to settle scores with you, you damned butler."

"Barron," Lucas said to Barron, "Why don't you finish putting the bodies back to where they belong along with the mud while I deal with this one." The rabbit looked at the dead man who had come out from God knows where before making his way to cover the bodies they had burnt of the Adams' and the older bodies they had taken out. 

Lucas walked forward, moving away from the graves so that Barron could do his job while hoping he wouldn't bury himself along with the bodies because it was Barron, "Surprised to see me here? You must be shocked," said Robinson. 

"Very surprised," Lucas raised his eyebrows as if he was shocked when in truth he wasn't. 

Lucas had expected for one of them to show up, especially after Mr. Adams appeared to be throwing him more stares than Mrs. Adams. Everyone in the mansion knew that the people who had entered the mansion weren't Belle's parents but Mr. Adams had been particularly hostile towards him. And now that he saw Robinson stand in front of him, waiting to avenge his death it was safe to tell that the people who he had killed would be thirsty for his blood; that was whoever had come down from the land of the dead. 

Robinson came right at him, using the ability of wind by using high intensity that was thrown at Lucas like sharp invisible knives that cut the sides of his arms, "Looks like you picked up some tricks," said Lucas. 

"You killed me and sent me to a place like that. Do you know how it was? I was hunted and tried to be eaten there until I fused myself to this spirit," admitted Robinson, "Was it because I dragged her?" There was a look of madness when Robinson questioned him. 

"I had my own reasons. You shouldn't concern yourself with it," answered Lucas. Continuing to walk farther and farther away to have the dead man follow him. 

"I will kill you and then kill Belle. She seems still untouched, do you think she will like it?" asked Robinson, laughing when Lucas' stared at him. 

"You don't know when to close your mouth, do you?" asked Lucas, and when Robinson used the wind ability to attack Lucas as his arm was bleeding because of the cut. At the same time, Lucas pulled out his scythe to deflect the wind that was going to hit him, "You should have stayed in the land of the dead instead of trying to even your scores which will only continue with imbalance."

Robinson was not himself and had fused himself with a spirit who had the ability of wind. Looking at Lucas' scythe, the spirit in him looked at Lucas in fear and confusion. Robinson's face kept changing to look like a skeleton ghost to the man he had been buried as, "You! Why do you have a scythe? What is this Grim the spirit is talking about?" asked the ignorant man. It looked like the spirit was trying to warn Robinson of who was in front of him.

"Why don't you find out about it, weakling," Lucas moved his finger for the man to come and Robinson looked furious. 

"I will kill you!" 

Lucas smiled at his words and he used his own hand to hit the man. This time the body looked more solid than what he had encountered in the mansion. It was possible that Robinson had taken the spirit's help to take his body from the forest because the man's clothes were covered in mud. 

Lucas didn't bother to spend time with this dead being and with a few punches and kicks, Robinson fell on the white ground which was covered in snow. Walking to him, Lucas pulled up the man by his collar, 

"Who else came out with you?" asked Lucas. The question was asked in utmost seriousness but Robinson seeing this started to laugh. 

"Find it out yourself," spat the man. 

Lucas threw the man back on the ground, ready to walk away when Robinson's hand reached out to drag Lucas down but Lucas who still had his scythe with him, turned it around to push the log rod into Robinsons' stomach. 

"Tell me. I am sure you had some friends because we met some of them already," stated Lucas, gauging the dead man who was in pain. 

"What did you do to them?" asked Robinson and he groaned when Lucas pushed the rod by twisting it further, "Should have known they would be visiting you first but there's someone who is eager to meet you." 

Lucas pulled out his scythe and said, "Time is up," and he turned the scythe around to use the other end to kill the already dead person, sending him to the land of the dead. Robinson's body withered away into smoke. 

Turning back, he went to see Barron who was still pushing the mud into place, "Finish this and return back to the mansion. I have somewhere to go."

"Wait, what!" Barron screamed, only his voice echoing with Lucas who had disappeared, "You must be kidding! What if I am attacked?!" Barron heard the owl hoot and he quickly started to use the shovel to push the mud so that no reaper or hellhound would be paying him a visit at the cemetery. 

When Lucas disappeared and apparated back, it wasn't the Adams' mansion he was in but the mansion that belonged to Olivia Stlinkson.
