Chapter 4: Abilities
The back van doors flew open and they could all see it was a human that was trying to run them off the road, but Sky instantly recognized him and screamed.
Arthur floored it and suddenly felt the van move forward much faster when Sky screamed and looked in the rear view mirror, seeing the air ripple and quickly realized what happened.
Sky's scream had acted like a booster and not only blown their pursuer back a bit, but gave the van a speed boost. He was stunned, but then saw their pursuer coming back and quickly focused on the road, flooring it but then seeing that the bridge up ahead was out and realized there was only one shot at this.
"Sky," he said. "You need to scream again."
She turned to him. "What?" She asked in confusion.
"What?" Vivi echoed her.
Arthur turned to look at the young ghost. "Your scream has a 'booster' effect," he said. "You need to scream again. It can help us lose our pursuer and get across the bridge that's out."
He then turned back to the road a moment and then looked at her again. "But it's going to have to be a really big scream," he said.
Vivi quickly calculated what Arthur was saying and realized he was right. "He's right, Sky," she said. "Give it all you got, okay?"
Sky didn't look very confident, but Lewis wrapped an arm around her stomach and braced himself with his other hand against the side of the van. She looked up at him and he gave her a nod of encouragement. Clutching his arm for support, Sky stood a bit straighter and took a deep breath.
"Now!" She heard Arthur call to her.
Sky instantly let out her loudest scream and the van flew through the air and across the damaged bridge, landing safely on the other side and Arthur floored it again.
Their pursuer was forced to stop on his side of the bridge and he got out, which made Sky gasp again and her eyes widened as she knew who he was.
How does Sky know who the pursuer is? Read on to find out. :)
A bit short, yes, but the next chapter is longer. :)
