A constant ticking of the clock echoes in the background. All was silent.
'Three... Two... One...'
"Clocky! I need your help!"
Ambulances rush down the street. Driving by a school, they headed out of Amity. Teens walking by stopped and stared. A particular three turned their heads, watching the vehicles.
"Whoa, what's going on?"
"Don't ask me."
"It might be on the news tomorrow, dude. Then, mystery solved! Now, on to the next mystery. Why has my stomach been empty since break- OW!"
Reporters crowded around the hospital, cameras flashed as they tried to get a good angle. People were moaning and crying in the background. Red and blue lights from the top of the white vehicles shined onto them, casting shadows onto the floor.
"Where's our friend? Is she here? Her name is-"
"Calm down, Miss. I-I don't even have the name list of the passengers yet."
Electricity flew through the air, heading towards the couple.
"VAL!"
"Don't- oof! ...urgh *gasp*"
"NO!"
A bright blue beam shot out at the technology ghost, trapping him in a soup thermos.
"We're in the hospital, Tucker."
"You can panic now... anytime now..."
Crying while holding onto a bandaged hand, the girl finally let go of her tears. The raven haired boy patted the sobbing girl's shoulder. A tear rolling down his own cheek.
"My children shall flourish!"
"Not while we're still around!"
White gloved hands gripped the weapon tighter, fingers flexing and relaxing around the metal.
A harmonised whine filled the air.
Charged ectoguns all aimed at one target.
The guns activated with a click.
The constant ringing in our ears blocked out all noise until a sharp intake of breath ended the silence.
"DADDY!"
The ghost turned to face the panicking halfa as he rushed in, arms holding his passenger close. 'All as it should be.'
"Right on time, Daniel."
