Chapter Seven: Charlie's Day

"Here's your coffee and chocolate chip muffin, and I put two extra muffins for Anna and Molly," Lily handed Charlie the bag and coffee.

"Kay, so do I need to pick anything up for dinner?" Charlie asked. Lily thought for a second while she roasted a pot of coffee.

"Get two baguettes from the bakery, a carton of milk, how about I just write you a list?" Lily quickly wrote down list and handed it to Charlie. She stuffed it in her pocket and headed back outside. Once she got to the historical society it was only nine o'clock, it didn't open until nine thirty. Charlie thought she was going to have to wait, when a small car pulled up. The car door opened and out came and old lady who had gray hair pulled back into a bun, and was carrying a key ring with about five different keys on it.

"Charlene, what are you doing here this early?" Anna asked when she saw Charlie standing there.

"I need to ask a favor of you," Charlie said as Anna unlocked the door to the society. They both walked in, and Charlie typed in the alarm code, which Anna and Molly had trusted her with.

"What would that be?" she asked Charlie.

"Can I go into the backroom to look through the files?" Charlie asked and Anna looked at her.

"Sure dear, is it for a project?" Anna asked and Charlie smiled her soft, kind smile.

"It's summer vacation, I don't have school for a couple more months. Here are muffins for you and Molly from Lily," Charlie put the bag on the desk after she took hers out first.

"Oh, that's right. You're not going to the town's high school next year right?" Charlie shook her head.

"No, we're moving, I'm really going to miss this place," Charlie was talking about the historical society, not the town.

"Well then of course you can look at the files, here are the keys," Anna took a key ring off the desk and handed it to Charlie.

"Thanks Anna," Charlie looked at the key ring, there were two keys on it. Both of them looked rather old, Charlie tried the copper looking one and it opened the door. Inside the room were shelves and filing cabinets, Charlie looked at the cabinets, and found one labeled Death Records. Anna and Molly really needed to reorganize these files. Sarah opened the cabinet and swore under her breath. The earliest date was January, 1802. Charlie took the file out, sat down and got comfortable, she was going to have a long day.

She came across the name Sarah Morse a seven year old girl, but all it said was that she was murdered. There was also a Joseph Morse, Hope Morse, and Seth Morse, who must have been her younger brother. Charlie closed her eyes to rest for a bit, this was getting frustrating.

Charlie looked around, she was surrounded by orbs, thousands of ghosts.

"Charlie," a familiar voice called out. Charlie turned around, Gene was standing there.

"Gene!" Charlie ran up and hugged him, he felt cold to the touch. Charlie looked at him, he had a worried look on his face. "What's wrong?" she asked him.

"I'm trapped here with all the others, and I think they're after Mai," he said. Just then one of the orbs turned into its human form. It was a little girl, with chocolate brown curls.

"Sarah, are you okay?" Charlie asked her.

"Yes, the attic is open, now you need to open the other doors on your own," she said.

"What do you mean?" Charlie asked, but everything started to fade.

When Charlie woke up she heard Anna talking to someone. She walked out of the backroom, and saw another old lady standing there.

"Hello Molly," Charlie said to her.

"Hello Charlene, Anna told me you were researching something in the backroom, but it looks like you've been sleeping."

"How is the research going, dear?" Anna asked.

"Not so good, do you know anything about a Sarah Morse?"

"Sarah Morse, her and her family we're killed," Molly said.

"How do you know?" Charlie asked.

"She died about ten years before I was born, but when I was in school we would scare each other by saying Sarah's ghost would come back to haunt the school at midnight on Halloween," Mary said.

"Well, who killed them?" Charlie asked, this was so much easier than looking through records.

"A family friend who was living with them, oh I forgot to say that they lived in the fear house. Anyway, the man always had an evil glint to his eye, and apparently he had the blood of a witch, his mother, and her whole family were witches, and so was he."

"Thanks so much! You've answered all my questions!" Charlie really wanted to get to the house to tell everyone what had happened. She put the keys on the desk, hugged Anna and Molly, and set out to the fear house. On the way she thought about the dream she had about Sarah and Gene, and what Anna and Molly had told her, and came to a startling realization. When she got to the house no one was downstairs. She went upstairs and found everyone in Sarah's room.

"What's up?" Charlie asked, and everyone was startled.

"Don't ever sneak up on us again," Ayako said.

"You're just in time to help close the door that I accidently opened," Mai told her.

"No!" Charlie wasn't even sure what Mai was talking about, she just knew she had to stop them. "I think I've figured part of it out," Charlie said and everyone looked at her. "So, Sarah and her family were killed by a family friend, who lived with them, he was thought to be a witch. Then I had a dream, I was surrounded by orbs, Gene and Sarah were there. Gene said they were all trapped and he thinks that they are after Mai, and Sarah said she opened the attic, but it's our job to open the rest of the door," Charlie took a deep breath, and waited for people to talk.

"Is that it?" Masako asked.

"Yeah, so no closing doors, that is Sarah and Gene's escape from being trapped," Charlie said.

"You had a dream?" Mai asked curiously.

"Yeah, I don't know how though," Charlie was also wondering about that.

"Naru, what now?" asked Madoka.

"We go back to the house, we still don't know how to get rid of whatever is in this house," he said.

"So even though we learned more information we aren't any closer to solving the case," Bou-san sighed. Everyone went back to the house except Charlie, she went to the store and bakery to pick up the food before heading back. Charlie then cooked the Sheppard's Pie, Lily was in her room doing whatever she does.

"Where is Noll?" Charlie asked, when she got back from the store he wasn't there, and he still wasn't. Lin wasn't at the table, he was typing something on his computer.

"This wouldn't be the first time he left a case, he'll probably show up sooner or later with some big piece of information," Ayako said.

"Ayako's probably right," Madoka said with a sigh. "That boy has no courtesy."
