Haunted Shack

[Midnight Rose -Just Another Lost Soul {Does It Matter Who I Really Am Inside?}-]

She tilted her head and smiled

[Midnight Rose -Just Another Lost Soul {Does It Matter Who I Really Am Inside?}-]

"Oh some girl having fun. Names Jace." She said. "You?"

[Midnight Rose -Just Another Lost Soul {Does It Matter Who I Really Am Inside?}-]

"OTW. You?" She asked leaning against a wall

[Midnight Rose -Just Another Lost Soul {Does It Matter Who I Really Am Inside?}-]

She nods. "Don't worry. Whatever fight you guys are in with us, I'm not in it. I don't wanna be. It's so pathetic." She rolled her eyes

[Midnight Rose -Just Another Lost Soul {Does It Matter Who I Really Am Inside?}-]

((Sure))

She nods.

[Katie]

((hi))

[Midnight Rose -Just Another Lost Soul {Does It Matter Who I Really Am Inside?}-]

((Should we have an order?))

Jace sighed. "What have you done?" She asked. She had a small box of medical supplies in her pocket

[Katie]

((okay))

Leila walked into the shack, and saw two people in there. She looked at them cautiously, then asked, "Are you two OTW?"

[Midnight Rose -Just Another Lost Soul {Does It Matter Who I Really Am Inside?}-]

Jace nods. She walks over to the girl and wipes the blood away. She saw a girl nearby. "If only you were here earlier." She smiled

[Katie]

" What are you then?" Leila inquired.

[Midnight Rose -Just Another Lost Soul {Does It Matter Who I Really Am Inside?}-]

Jace smiled. "I'm OTW. You?"

[Katie]

"I'm OTW also. But don't worry. I'm not really into all this fighting that we all do. I'm guessing you don't either?" Leila said.

[Midnight Rose -Just Another Lost Soul {Does It Matter Who I Really Am Inside?}-]

"Great! Another friend!" She smiled and finished wiping the blood away

[Katie]

Leila didn't know exactly what was going on between the two girls, but she intended to find out. "What are your names?" she asked.

[Midnight Rose -Just Another Lost Soul {Does It Matter Who I Really Am Inside?}-]

"Jace. And no problem." She said

[Katie]

Leila smiled. "Nice to meet you. I'm Leila" She said.

[Midnight Rose -Just Another Lost Soul {Does It Matter Who I Really Am Inside?}-]

She nods. "Sup."

[Katie]

Leila patted the familiar walls of the shack. "I come here often," she said. "To get some privacy. Not many people are crazy enough to come in here."

[Katie]

(( are you guys there?))

[Katie]

((ok. You just do your turn.))

[Midnight Rose -Just Another Lost Soul {Does It Matter Who I Really Am Inside?}-]

((Sorry.))

She shrugged. "Same guess. Tired of the crazy fights and all

[Katie]

Leila smiled. "I know how you feel."

[Midnight Rose -Just Another Lost Soul {Does It Matter Who I Really Am Inside?}-]

"So yeah. What y'all been up to?"

[Katie]

(( i have to go. Bye))

Leila looked around hurriedly and anxiously. "I'm going to go," she said. "And I suggest you do too."

[Midnight Rose -Just Another Lost Soul {Does It Matter Who I Really Am Inside?}-]

((Bye))

[Evelina]

Amelia entered the haunted shack, katana drawn. She didn't believe in ghosts, but she also knew that there had to be something in here if people were making such a fuss over it. Whatever it was could be a threat to humanity, and so it must be eradicated. She flipped her hair over her shoulder as she walked down the creaky hallway. Another day, another job.

[The Phantom, InAbsentiaRego]

Coil wandered towards the house, with no more thought except that he hadn't been there before. He'd heard various tales, but could care less. He had a naturally inquisitive mind.

[Evelina]

Many of the "ghosts" she'd hunted had actually been humans, who were trying to keep others away. Better start with the basics, she figured. She opened her mouth, and imitated the sound of a howling ghost and rattling chains. It had taken her a while to perfect this particular sound. If the "ghost" was a human, he or she would most likely think that his or her own "ghost" story had come alive, and would reveal his or herself instantly. All she had to do was wait, katana at hand.

[The Phantom, InAbsentiaRego]

Coil had just entered the building - through a window, just because - when he heard this. He sat in a corner and hid.

[Evelina]

Amelia heard a small rustling noise, near the window. Perfect, she thought, almost smiling. Shouldn't be too long, now. She kept to the shadows, and continued to make the noise. This time, she sheathed and re-sheathed her katana as she howled and rattled, making a sound like to the sharpening of a blade.

[The Phantom, InAbsentiaRego]

Coil buried his head down, smothering both his face and his precious laptop, and shook uncontrollably at the noises and the fear they brought to him.

[Evelina]

Amelia scanned the room, and sighed. Maybe the rustling noise was just the wind, or something of the sort. She sheathed her katana for the final time. Besides, if someone was here, he's probably running screaming for the hills right now. She frowned, thinking. Still, though. If it's not a human, what is it? She decided to check one more time, just to be sure. This time, she manipulated her voice so that it sounded like a ghostly whisper, echoing throughout the house. "I know you're in herrrrrre," she whispered, injecting eerie undertones into her voice. "You may asssss well come out."

[The Phantom, InAbsentiaRego]

Coil whimpered quietly in terror, and contracted into himself more tightly, barely breathing.

[Evelina]

Amelia heard a small whimper, and silently cursed. Whoever it was, judging from the pitch of the noise, was only a kid. She probably should have checked to see if anyone was already in the house before confronting the whole "ghost" legend. She switched back to her normal voice. "Hey, is someone there? You can come out." She looked around for the source of the sound.

[The Phantom, InAbsentiaRego]

Coil remained frozen, cold tears running from eyes widened by fear.

[Evelina]

Amelia stepped out of the shadows, all weapons away. "Listen closely. I'm not going to hurt you, and I'm just a human. I heard this place was haunted, and figured it was just a human playing pranks. So I'm trying to scare whoever it is away." She still couldn't see whoever it was, but felt incredibly guilty nonetheless. "Sorry for scaring you, I didn't mean to."

[The Phantom, InAbsentiaRego]

((He wouldn't be very stealthy, by the way. He's a quivering wreck... And he doesn't fit well into corners.))

Coil remained unchanged, shut off from outside stimulus.

[Evelina]

((Oh, I see! My bad!))

Amelia squinted, and could make out a quivering shape in the corner. Just a kid. She slowly approached the mass, and pulled out her flashlight. She switched it on, and turned it on herself, illuminating her human body and face. "See? Human."

[The Phantom, InAbsentiaRego]

Coil was still looking down, so didn't see her, and chose not to hear.


((He's also kinda autistic... Good luck!))

[Evelina]

((This should be interesting! xD))

She stooped down in front of the boy. "Hello?" she said. "Anyone in there?" She stood up. "Look, I'm really sorry for scaring you. But I really have to clear this house, because something or someone is definitely in here."

[The Phantom, InAbsentiaRego]

Coil flicked his eyes up briefly, but only for half a moment, before burying his head again.

[Evelina]

Amelia changed her voice so that it was more gentle. "I'll walk you to the door, if you like. Make sure nothing's here." She glanced around, then back at the boy.

[The Phantom, InAbsentiaRego]

Coil rolled dextrously forwards onto his toes, still looking down, and held up a searching hand.

[Evelina]

Amelia reached down, and gently took Coil's hand. "What's your name?" she asked, in the same voice. "I'm Amelia."

[The Phantom, InAbsentiaRego]

Coil slowly pulled himself up, and shook his head.

[Evelina]

"You don't have to tell me if you don't want to," she added, and began to walk. "There's no ghost in here, by the way. I thought you were someone who was pretending to be a ghost. That's why I scared you."

[The Phantom, InAbsentiaRego]

He walked slowly, slightly behind her.

[Evelina]

((What if the "ghost" just pops out right now? xD))

[Breanna Joy]

((Mind if I join?))

[The Phantom, InAbsentiaRego]

((Yeah and yeah.))
