It's an important place for local community, after all", she goes to the entrance and you follow her.
"The lights stay on during the night?"
"Only some regular lights on the porch and on the light poles, but that's on the park. The lamps on all the park are eco-friendly and more durable, though", she smiles, trying to divert you from her own confusion on what's happening.
"Any problem?", Peter asks, looking at you both.
"Is everyone else there? I didn't know we would meet them after the Pub"
"Oh, that?", he smiles foundly at the house, giving it a nostalgic look. His emerald-green eyes are shining. "I just wanted to give it a look on the house before we keep going. You know how much 'One-Eye' liked this place... But there's only one way to find out...", he takes a deep breath and yells from the bottom of his lungs, "Whoever is there, you are surrounded! Come out now or face the consequences!", he tries do hold his laughter at the end of his yelling, but couldn't hold himself and a chuckle comes out his mouth.
Everyone pays attention now on you three. James says something between the lines of "Hell yeah! Leave the place, you bastards!" and you are trying hard to understand if that's what he really said. Lamar holds his shoulders with his arm, preventing him from stumbling on his on feet in a not-so-far future. "Wow! Easy on the treats, tiger!"
"I ain't a tiger, I'm a wolf!", and James attempts to howl fiercely, coming out more as a cute wolf puppy on those youtube videos.
"What's all this fuzz?", an old voice comes out the door as it is opening, revelaing a group of elderly people who were inside the house this whole time.
"Look who are here!", Peter's tone is happy and surprised, "Isn't it time for you old hags to be at bed?"
"The nurse may be smart, but we are faster!", one old lady laughs while leaning on the porch, "Guess we are here for same reason"
"We are just passing by", Peter gets you on your shoulders, wrapping his arm around you, "We are just showing around the place to Ryan here!"
"Ryan?", a man looks at you. "That Ryan?"
"Yeah!", James raises a fist, calling the elder attention, "My sweet mate Ryan!"
"Nice to finally meet you, Ryan", another lady waves her hand gently at you, "Wish we could had met in a happier moment"
"It is a happy moment", you reply, "Today is all about celebrating his life, right?"
"You are smart, just like James said", she smiles and giggles, "He was such a gentle fellow... You would had liked him"
"I bet I would", you nod, "But... How did you got in? Isn't the community center close?"
"Oh, someone real special let us in", she winks.
