Disclaimer: If I owned Nny, he and Devi would've had a kid by now.

Okay, let me just say how sorry I am for making all of you wait so long.

My computer suffered from a virus, and soon crashed, preventing me from writing for a long time. But now we finally got it repaired and running smoothly, so I was able to update this. Please forgive me!


"Well, goodbye Erin." said Ann as she and Erin hugged. She stepped to her right. "Goodbye, John." She gave the ghost a hug as well, making him tense up and her shiver. Ann opened the door. "I'll see ya again soon, okay?" Erin waved her goodbye until she was in her mom's car.

Afterwards, Erin turned back to see, and could see he was still tense, his eye twitching. "What, you don't like hugs?"

"No, but that isn't the problem......" Nny said through his teeth. "It's where she had her hands. They were south of my back......"

Erin blushed, sweat dropping. "Well, uh, maybe she couldn't see that."

"No, I could tell she could see me, she knew exactly where I was."

Erin slapped her forehead. "Dear God, Erin....." She could just hear her giggling in triumph and sighed. "Whatever, I'm going to my room."

"My room." Nny mumbled, crossing his arms.

She rolled her eyes. "To do some online research." Erin left him in the living room and headed down the hall to hers. However, when she opened the door, she nearly screamed.

Sitting on the small chair in front of her recently repaired mirror, was the ghost of Devi D., staring at her reflection.

"Say, you got anything I can use to tie my hair back?" Devi asked in a rather casual tone.

Erin raised an eyebrow. "Um, yeah, they're right in here." She went to her wooden dresser and opened the top right drawer, pulling out two red hair bands. She placed them in Devi's open palm.

"It's been a long time since I've had my hair down while it was this long." Devi spoke as she put her hair into their usual pigtails. "By now I would've gotten it cut short and change the color."

Erin couldn't help but feel a bit odd at this situation. Here she was, letting a ghost borrow some hair bands while sharing a normal conversation. In fact, it almost seemed kind of....funny. She sat in front of her computer while Devi stood, examining her hair some more.

"Why is this mirror so cracked?" she asked.

"Um.....it was Johnny's." Erin answered as she entered Google.

Devi raised her eyebrows. "Oh.....it's that mirror."

Erin briefly wondered what she meant, but said nothing. She typed in the name John Cullen. "Hmm, let's see.....Edward Cullen...." She smiled at the name. "Peter Cullen......" She sighed, thinking of Ann. "Oh wait, what's this?"

She clicked on a link to an online article. "Murder.....of a Mass Murderer?" She read the title and began to skim over it, finding Nny's name. "Oh god......" Her face cringed in disgust as the article told of some of the crimes he had committed.

"Ripping a surveyor to shreds....killing people with fucking sporks....blowing up a café? I knew this guy was sick, but.....my god."

Her eyes widened when she spotted another name. "Devi......Delgado?" She continued reading, and a gasp escaped her mouth when she saw the reason he had been mentioned.

"He deserved it, you know."

Erin jumped and turned to Devi who was suddenly behind her, looking at the screen.

"You.....you killed Johnny?"

She narrowed her eyes. "You say that like it was a bad thing. You've seen his basement, you've seen what he does to people, what he is!" She turned away. "Besides, it was only fair. A life for a life. Actually....a life for two lives..."

Erin tilted her head and sighed. "Devi....there's no justification for killing someone, even if they killed someone you-"

"WHY THE HELL DO YOU THINK I KILLED MYSELF?!" She screamed, turning back to Erin an eerie red glow appearing from her otherwise hollow, black eyes. "It was long overdue anyway! He.....he destroyed my hopes for a normal life long before I did it!" Her eyes lost the glow as they began to water.

Nny's screams echoed through Erin's mind. "I FUCKED IT UP!!" "What.....did he do to you?"

"You really wanna know?" Devi sighed. "Sit down, kid, it's a long story......"

Erin did as she was told and took a seat at the edge of her bed.

"Way back....." Devi began. "I worked at a book store. Dragon Books, you may have seen it in town. There was a guy who would come in everyday. He....hardly ever actually bought a book, he would just browse. He normally at the sort of books I liked, so one day I started talking to him. After that, he would always come back the nest day during my shift, and we'd talk for hours about just about anything."

Erin recalled Nny's story, seemed pretty similar so far.

"After about three months, I finally asked him out. It was....wonderful at first. But then....he took me here. We talked some more, and....we were about to kiss....." She tried in vain to hide the blush on her cheeks. "When he suddenly....left. He went inside this room, and....I heard him talking. I think I even heard a different voice. When I finally opened the door, he....gave me this....wicked grin. I knew something was up, so I started to leave...." She choked a sob. "Then he....pulled his ucking knives out at me! I was lucky to have landed a kick on him....or else...." Wet drops appeared on the floor. "I was traumatized. I couldn't leave my apartment for months, even if my best friend begged me to get out. Which.....brings me to the next part of the story."

"After I had gotten over my fears, my friend, Tenna, invited me to go clubbing with her. I refused, not because I was afraid, but because I had recently had a bad experience at a club. So she went without me...." She buried her head in her face. "That was the last time I heard her. She was at the club at the same time he was. Everyone, everything, in that club was destroyed." She couldn't hold back the sobs anymore, and she sunk to her knees.

Erin had to take a few moments to absorb all that had been said to her. With wide eyes, she left the room, and went down to the basement she knew Nny would be in. It wasn't long before she found him, standing before the bloody wall again. She walked behind him and with all her strength, brought her clenched fist against the back of his skull.

"YOU FUCKING DUMBASS!!!"


And so I finally conclude this chapter. Again, I apologize greatly for that long wait. At least my compy's working like new, so I won't have any delays because of that. But please don't expect me to update in less than a month. I have two other fanfictions I'm working on, and I hardly ever have the time to write anyway. But please be patient, and I shall reward you!

Okay, okay, I know, this chapter's really short, but I thought that this was all that was necessary. Hopefully I'll be able to update the next one a little quicker. Also, cookies for anyone who gets the Cullen references.
