Casey sat in the back seat of Sai's blue van. Her purple backpack sat in her lap and her eyes showed anger. "I still can't believe you guys were an hour late, you know how many people gave me freaky looks!?!" Casey fumed. Ryo laughed.
"We said we were sorry, Mia hadn't checked her e-mail for a while, we were busy on our honeymoon." Casey's face lit up.
"No way! You and Mia tied the knot!" Casey cried. "I'm so happy for you guys!" She hugged Ryo, who was sitting next to her. Casey sat back as the guys started talking about something. She had been gone for a month. She had gone back to Oregon for her sister's wedding, she tried staying with her mom and dad but they said they weren't ready to have her back. Casey looked out the window as they stopped at a red light. She saw a guy that looked just like Lee; he looked back at her with his cold blue eyes. Casey covered her mouth as she gasped. Shivers ran down her spine and they took off. She sat back in her seat not saying another word till they got to the Koji manner, well more like Sanden manner now. Casey hopped out and ran over to Mia while swinging her back over her shoulder. She hugged Mia tightly. Casey pushed back and looked up at her. "I heard you and Ryo tied the knot, I'm so happy for you two." Mia smiled.
"Thanks Casey, Yuile's inside, he'll show you to your new room, he has a friend over you might what to meet." Casey nodded and ran inside. Mia walked over to the guys who were hauling Casey's bags to the walkway to the door.
"What does she have in here!" Sai choked.
"Guys we got a small problem." Mia said folding her hands together. Every stopped and looked at her.
"What is it?" Ryo asked looking at his wife with worry filled eyes.
"Someone's back." Mia said.

Casey ran into the living room almost dropping dead at the sight. There sat Yuile next to Lee in the Shadow armor. She made a noise in her throat of fear and they both looked up at her. Lee smirked but frown as she hit the floor with a thud.
"Were you expecting her to do that?" Yuile asked as Lee shook his head. Lee stood up and walked over to her and bent down next to her. Her bag was off to the left of her and her hair spilled around her shoulders. She stirred and opened her eyes. Her vision was blurred and when it cleared and she saw Lee leaning over her in flesh and blood she screamed. She backed up against the wall her eyes widened with shock.
"You're.... I mean you........I thought you were....." Casey stuttered pressing hard against the wall.
"Dead?" Lee said standing up. Casey nodded. "Ever hear of resurrection?"
"So...so you're alive, for good?" Lee nodded. Casey face lit up. She jumped up and hugged him. Lee laughed a little while hugging her tightly. "Oh my gosh I thought I had lost you for good." Casey whispered. Everyone came running into the house after they heard Casey scream. They all smiled and started whispering how cute they looked together. They blushed and pulled away while everyone started laughing.
"Um, so Lee do you have a place to stay?" Mia asked.
"While actually I do, my mom's memory of me being gone was erased and she just thinks I went on vacation." Lee said.
"That's great." Sai said. Lee nodded.
"Well Yuile have you showed Casey where her room is?" Sage asked hinting for him to do so.
"Oh yeah!" Yuile said laughing. "C'mon!" Yuile grabbed Casey and pulled her upstairs. She was staying in the same room she was last in. She unpacked and ran down stairs. But Yuile stopped her on the way down the stairs and put a finger to his lips. They bent down and looked at the group gathered in the living room.
@~~~~~~`,'~~~~~~~~~~,~~~~~~`~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"So that's why you were resurrected." Rowen said. Lee nodded.
"I'm not going to be staying here forever." Lee said and Casey's heart sank. "I'm only here to protect Casey from the evil a head." Everyone nodded.
"What will your mother think?" Sai asked from his spot on the love seat next to Kento who was stuffing his face full of food.
"She'll think I was hit by a car and was killed." Lee answered. Casey broke into tears and ran back upstairs knocking Yuile out of hiding as she slammed the door to her room shut. Everyone looked at him and he smiled.
"Um, hi." Yuile peeped, he had been told to make sure Casey didn't come down. Lee's face became worried.
"Oh no." He stood up and ran up stairs to Casey door. He could hear sobs coming from the other side. He shed his armor and sub armor leaving him in school uniform, which was blue pants and a blue shirt. He knocked on the door. The sobs faded.
"What?" Casey called.
"Casey, can I come in?" Lee replied.
"Fine." Casey said. Lee pushed open the door slowly. He looked in and saw her curled up in a ball on her bed. She looked up at him with tears running down her cheeks. "Why?"
"Why what? Why did I have to die? Why did I leave you? Why am I here?" Lee asked shutting the door behind him. Casey shook her head.
"Why did you come, show yourself to me and then plan to leave and break my heart?" Casey snapped. Lee hung his head.
"Would you have rather had me not show myself to you and just come and save you one of these days and you be clueless about it?" Casey shook her head.
"No, I guess not." Casey whispered. "I just don't want to see you leave again, it was painful enough the first time." Lee lifted her chain and looked into her eyes.
"Casey I never left you, I was always by you when you would have needed me. I watched over you letting you know when trouble was a head, I'm letting you know now, something isn't right." Casey looked up at him. His eyes never left hers. ~ Just kiss her already while no one is in here! ~ Lee's mind yelled to him. Lee leaned down and kissed her gently on the lips. They parted and Casey embraced him in a hug.
"C'mon, let's go down stairs." Lee said. Casey nodded and they left the room. When they came down everyone looked up and smiled with relief. "Well I better be going, mom wants me home before dark." Everyone nodded.
"Do you want a ride?" Sage asked.
"Na, that's ok, I can walk." Lee said. Everyone nodded. Casey walked him to the door. "Will you be at school tomorrow?" Casey nodded. Lee kissed her on the cheek. "See ya then." He left and Casey slowly shut the door. She walked back in.
"CASEY HAS A BOYFRIEND!!!!" Everyone cried. Casey went red and stuck her tongue out at them.
"Oh shut up." Casey ran to her room and smiled when she sat down. She looked at her open closet; there in front was her school uniform. It was the same one still. She stood up and grabbed her bag. She pulled out her portable CD player and popped in a CD. She laid down a soon fell asleep to the music.
@~~~~~~~~,'~~~~~,~~~~`~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Casey ran down a long dark hall nothing lighting the way. Her hair blew back a long with her school uniform skirt. She was running faster then ever. Soon her surroundings changed. She ran in the park that went from on end of the city to the other, which was pretty far. It was raining and she was drenched in less then two minutes. Strands of hair were plastered to her face and her heart was beating fast. Her breath crystallized a soon as it left her lips. She stumbled a bit but kept running. Once again her surroundings changed a long with her clothes. She was running in what seemed to be a field, it was still raining and she was in her Maid of Honor dress. She saw her sister up a head of her in her wedding dress.
"Jessica." She panted. She stumbled and fell into a puddle of mud. She looked up a smear of mud ran across her right cheek. A dark cloud started to surround Jessica and she looked at her.
"Casey! Please help me." Jessica said softly as the cloud swallowed her up.
"Jessica!" Casey screamed stumbling to her feet. She once beautiful white dress was now an ugly brown. She ran over to the cloud and ran right through it. She fell and landed on her hands and knees. She heard laughter and she looked behind her strands of wet hair falling into her eyes. There stood a human size of the Sovran of Death. She was laughing her hideous laugh. "We killed you!" Casey yelled in horror.
"I'm not that easy to kill you foolish girl!" She cried then laughed again. "Now that I've killed your sister let's whose next shall we!" A black box appeared and the vanished leaving Lee wrapped up in chains.
"Lee!" Casey screamed trying to move but something kept her down. She looked down at her hands and feet. The mud was wrapped around her holding her down. Her legs were curled half way under her and her hands were planted firmly on the other side of her.
"Don't try to save him this time." The Sovran cut across Lee's neck sending blood into the air.
"NOOOOOOO!!!!! You monster!" Casey screamed.
"Oh well I like to refer to myself as a demon more then a monster." She laughed. "Now who's next." Ryo appeared and she did the same to him as she did to Lee. Casey struggled to get up but the more she did the more she sank into the mud. Then Ryo, Lee and Jessica appeared standing dead. Their eyes were glowing red and they started to walk toward her.
"You killed us, it's your fault." They chanted. "You didn't save us." The repeated it over and over again.
"Noooo!!!!! Leave me a lone! I didn't kill you! I wanted to save you please!!!!! NOOOOOOOO!!!!!"

Casey sat strait up in bed gasping for air. She looked around her and saw she was in her bed. She glanced at the alarm clock; it was 1:45 in the morning. Strands of hair were plastered to the sides of her face with sweat. She pulled off the covers and went to her bathroom in her room. She took out a hair thing and pulled her hair back in a pony tale. She looked over at her bed. ~ Someone must have tucked me in. ~ She thought. She nearly screamed at the sound of scratching at her window. She walked over to see a black and white owl with a rolled up piece of paper in its mouth at the window. Casey pushed open one of the windows and it walked over. It held the paper out to her in its beak. Casey took it and the owl flew off into the night. Casey unrolled the paper and read it.
Watch what you do, we have our eyes on you.
Casey gripped the paper tightly. She closed her window and sat hugging her knees to her chest. She grabbed her lab top and connected online. She then started typing an e-mail to Jessica.
Jesse! I'm really scared now. It's really late and I had a nightmare about the Sovran of Death, she had come back and killed you, Ryo and Lee, again. Then you guys were like zombies and started walking over to me and we were going to kill me. I woke up and put my hair in a pony tale and then an owl was at my window with a note to me. I read it and it said, 'watch what you do, we have our eyes on you' I'm really scared Jesse, maybe I'm just freaking out cause of the dream. Tell me what you think of the note.
Lots of Love
Casey
She hit send and got into her bed. She just sat there. She gasped as wind blew past her, when every window in her room was shut. "Lee is that you?" Lee had explained that he could go from spirit/ghost form to human form. She felt a hand on her shoulder and she turned around and nothing was there. She felt a warm breath on her neck and she screamed slightly. She dove her head into her pillow and everything stopped. She looked up and nothing was there. She slowly fell asleep with the table light on.

Music ripped it's way into Lee's head as his alarm clock blared. He sat up and turned it off. He walked down stairs and ate breakfast. The phone rang and his mom got it.
"Hello, oh yes Lee's here, one moment Yuile." His mom handed him the phone.
"Yeah?" Lee said.
"Lee listen something's up with Casey, she's up already and doesn't look like she got any sleep last night. I asked her what was wrong but she didn't answer, it was like she was a zombie." Yuile's worried voice said.
"Tell her to meet me outside of my house on her way to school, I'll talk to her." Lee said worry filling his voice.
"Alright, thanks, bye." Yuile said.
"Bye." Lee hung up the phone and ran upstairs. He changed into his uniform and brushed his hair, it fell into it's normal spot, slightly covering his right eye. He grabbed his backpack and ran down stairs.
"Don't forget your lunch honey!" Lee stopped in his tracks and ran back into the kitchen.
"Thanks mom! I'm going over to Yuile's after school, I'll be home before dinner!" Lee called and slammed the door shut. Two minutes later Yuile, Casey and a group of Yuile's friends came walking around the corner. Yuile and his friends shouting.
"CASEY AND LEE, SITTING IN A TREE! K-I-S-S-I-N-G!" Casey held her hands over her ears She glared at Yuile and his friends.
"SHUT UP!!!!!!" She screamed. Lee chuckled as Casey ran across the street to him. "You wanted to see me?"
"Huh, oh yeah, I wanted to walk to school with you." Lee said, not adding the part that he wanted to talk to her about what was wrong. Casey smiled and nodded. They walked down the street in silence. "Um Casey, is something wrong?" Casey stiffened and shook her head.
"No, why would you think that?" Casey asked looking at him. Lee looked down.
"Well Yuile told me that you didn't look so good this morning, and he asked you a question you didn't answer." Lee said. Casey stopped which made Lee stop. He looked at her. She opened her mouth to say something but then remembered the note, 'watch what you do, we have our eyes on you.' ~ I wonder if it means to not tell anyone about it. ~ Casey thought.
"Casey..." Lee said snapping her back into reality. Casey shook her head a smile appearing across her face.
"It was nothing." Casey said. "Come on, we're going to be late." Casey said running past Lee. She stopped about 8 feet away. "Are you coming or not!" Lee smiled and ran up next to her. He linked hands with her and they walked hand and hand to school.
@~~~~,'~~~~~~~,~~~~`~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Two figures stood in the shadows watching Casey and Lee. The taller one smirked.
"They look like quite the couple." The other one nodded.
"To bad they won't be staying that way." The shorter one said as a black and white owl flew over and landed on a tree branch above them.
