PROLOGUE (AUTHOR'S NOTE)

I have received permission from BettyHT to take her one shot "You can Always Check In" and write a longer story. Originally I planned to simply take it and expound on it, keeping the same beginning and same ending. However, the muse had different ideas. So, her story is back drop to this story while "Justice For Abigail" is a continuation of her one shot. Anyone who hasn't read it, I highly suggest you do…as it might as well be a prologue to this one. Since the name of the town is never mentioned, I have taken the liberty of making up a name. The same goes for any characters that I mention, or use, from her story (Ex. The owner; the clerk etc) If any town exists today with the same name as I've given the town, it is pure coincidence. Also, I might as well say it here as well as in the summary…there MIGHT be a major character death. I'm not really sure since I think there's a good chance the only reason for the feeling of death is…of course…the ghost BettyHT has let me use.

I also want to publicly thank BettyHT for allowing me to do this.
