I cannot wait to see the stories that come out of this archive! Craig of the creek is such a nice show with plenty of cool characters and so much to explore and theorize on! Anyway let's start off with chapter 2!

Chapter 2 – Please help us

Craig Williams was pretty quiet at dinner time. He was having Mac and Cheese with some chicken and corn bread for dinner. His sister, Jessica, was pretty much the only one telling the family how her day was at school, and his older brother Bernard, was just going through his phone checking his messages. Craig's mother, Nicole Williams; noticed that her son was awfully quiet, and looked really bothered.

"Craig, are you ok honey? You look really bothered by something." asked Nicole.

"Huh?" Craig raises his head and looks at his family "Oh it's nothing! I was just thinking about what to do at the creek tomorrow that's all!"

"It's pretty much all he thinks about…" said Bernard smugly.

Craig narrowed his eyes at his older brother "Anyway…" He said slowly. "Yeah everything's fine mom, I just got a lot of plans is all and I'm just thinking of what to do first."

"That's my boy, keep busy as always!" said Craig's father Duane Williams.

Craig then smiled, and then went to eating his dinner. Craig wouldn't dare talk about what he and his friends went through earlier. If they had found out where he, Kelsey and JP went to, his parents would never let them head back to the creek ever again. After dinner, Craig went back to his room to try and get some of his math homework done. He sat at his desk staring down at his worksheet. All of this was simple to Craig; he was practically a math genius at such a young age. But, as of right now he couldn't focus on his math homework. All he could think about was the ghost girl he saw down in that tunnel, her pale face, her bloodshot eyes, and her lifeless voice. It just wouldn't leave his mind no matter what he tried to focus on. That and those creatures he saw bouncing off the wall, were they really just illusions? Are where they really, actually something?

"AH!" Craig shrieked, he looked to his left, seeing his phone lighting up. "Oh…" He sighed in relief and reached over to grab his phone to check who messaged him. It was Kelsey who messaged in the group chat.

Kelsey: Is anybody still awake

JP: Yeah I am

Craig: Yeah…

Kelsey: I can't sleep…I can't stop thinking about earlier

Craig: Same, I can't even focus on my math homework

JP: Guys, who do you, think that was? And how did she get stuck down there?

Craig: I don't know, maybe she fell in on accident and couldn't get out…that's pretty sad

Kelsey: Did you guys hear the name she was calling out? Maggie,

Craig: Oh yeah, she was calling out to someone

JP: Her friend maybe?

Kelsey: Probably

JP: do you think we should help?

Craig: Like how? I mean…she's…gone, there's not much we can do.

JP: I don't know; it just feels messed up just leaving her down there.

Kelsey: JP, we're not going back there and there's nothing we can do! So let's just drop it and forget about this whole thing already!

JP: Alright…I'm going to try and sleep guys. Goodnight

Kelsey: Goodnight

Craig: Goodnight

Craig placed his phone back and on the table and hooked it up to the charger. Kelsey was right. What were they supposed to do? They weren't really ghost hunters or exorcist, or whatever they call people who communicate with the dead, they were just kids who just loved exploring and hanging out at the creek. They can't do anything about stuff like that. With that out of the way, Craig shook his head and just went back to doing his math homework. The math homework didn't take long at all, he went through fairly easy. He grabbed his phone and checked the time. 7:54, it was time for bed. Craig got changed into his pajamas and hopped into his bed. Craig lies back, staring up at the ceiling. The moonlight was shining through his window, lighting up some parts of his room. Again, he began thinking about the girl and what JP said. How did she get stuck down there? Where were her parents? Didn't they look for her? Weren't they worried about her? She must have been so scared…lost all hope…

"STOP IT, STOP THINKING ABOUT IT!" Craig shouted to himself as he just shut his eyes and pulls his covers over his face. "Think about the creek; think about your plans…" He whispered.

After about three minutes, Craig drifted off to sleep. But then, he opened his eyes. He found himself surrounded in a wooded area, standing in the middle of a dirt pathway. Craig didn't question it, he just started walking. Walking, and walking, till finally he found himself in the middle of a field full of flowers and healthy grass. Appearing out of nowhere…was that same girl, standing in front of the hole. She turned around to face Craig, tears streaming down her face.

Then Craig snapped his eyes open, he looked right, standing in the moonlight and in front of her bed was her, the girl, staring down at him with a lifeless expression.

"Please…help us…"

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Craig whaled "MOM! DAD! HEEEEEELP!"

It didn't take long before both Nicole and Duane appeared into their room. "CRAIG SWEETY WHAT'S WRONG?!" cried Nicole, wrapping her arms around his son.

"I SAW HER! THE GHOST GIRL! SHE WAS STANDING IN FRONT OF MY BED!" Craig cried, shaking with fear.

"Ghost girl? Boy what are you talking about?" Duane asked confused

"I…I…I just saw this girl…I…" Craig could barely speak.

"Shhh shhh baby its ok, you just had a nightmare that's all…" Nicole said rocking her son slowly.

"But…but I saw her standing next to me! I was awake!" cried Craig, burying his face into her mother's chest.

I took awhile before Craig was willing to head back to sleep. This was probably the scariest experience Craig as ever had in his life. Once Nicole was done comforting Craig, she left the room. Craig lies back, staring at the ceiling. She followed back to my house, he thought, she entered my dreams. But, then something crossed his mind. She was pleading to for him to help her. She needed help, but with what? He thought. What in the world could Craig do to help somebody who passed on?

Craig's eyes began to get heavy. Before he drifted off to sleep, he looked to the right, nobody was there. He blinked, still, nobody was there. Craig had completely closed his eyes, and drifted off to sleep at last.

He dreamed that he, Kelsey and JP were flying through the sky, riding on Mortimer.

It was defiantly a better dream than the previous one.
