[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Er... why?"

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"It's a spiritual release thing. Something that needs to be done."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"But... you could drown."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"The chance of my drowning is very slim."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Not quite."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"I'll be fine."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"That's not likely," she murmured. "I know it sounds cynical, but it's true."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"I know what I'm getting myself into."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

She sighed. "Yes, I know your silly religious things are pretty much harmless, but I've kind of got a ghost problem, and he's out for blood," she snapped. "Most likely yours."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"It's not silly," he snapped.

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Neither is the price on your head, and you're treating it as such."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Okay, look. Last time he possessed me or whatever is when I'm near the house. If I leave he won't bother me or you."

((don't mention whatevers happened with the ghost besides that, 'cause i don't know what happened))

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

((all right, but what about that 'i'm out for blood' thing?))

"Um, no."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

((um...explain?))

He sighed. "It won't be for long."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

((ghostie has decided to kill everyone that addie has ever loved.))

"But..." she bit her lip to keep it from quivering. She didn't want to upset him, but she didn't want him to die, either.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

((oh, fun))

"I promise."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

((XD))

"Don't make promises you can't keep, Chris."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"You don't believe I'll make it back?"

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"He's going to kill you," she said, her voice filled with the most fear she'd felt since actually being in Chicago.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"I won't let him."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

She shook her head. "It's not as simple as that anymore."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Look, I've made plans already. I can't cancel."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

Addie sighed. "Last time you said I could go with you," she whispered.
((he should get all offended by the suggestion, because she's a witch and whatnot. muahahaha))

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

Chris' eyes widened a moment. "I'm sorry, I can't."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Why not? You promised."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

He sighed. "Some of the people there may not be as open to your presence as I would be."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"What do you mean?"

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"They're very much against Pagans."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

She frowned. "And they'll recognize me right away as one?" she asked a little sharply.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"I'm not trying to be offensive, you know,"

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"I know, but you're trying to push me away," she told him. "I don't care what they think about me; what they don't know can't hurt them. Besides, what are they going to do, burn me at the stake?"

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"I'd be more than happy to take you, but it can't happen."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Why not?"

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"It just can't."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"That's really not fair, you know."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"I do know."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

She gave him a hurt look and didn't bother replying.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Don't look at me like that. There's nothing I can do."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

She nodded but didn't believe him at all.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"I swear," he said, holding his hands up.

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"What, do they have some sort of religion-verifier?" she asked sarcastically.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"No..but still."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Still what?"

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"They just know."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Yeah right."

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"Believe me."

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"How?"

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"I don't know!"

[Michelle, Where's your sense of adventure?]

"Okay." She gave up, shrugging. There was never anything she could do. Her helplessness was evident in every part of her body as she shook her head in defeat.

[Just Plain Ray, Cause it's nine in the afternoon...]

"I'm sorry, I really am."
