Chapter 9

Crystals POV

"Now all we have to do is exorcise the spirit." Crow said in his same emotionless tone.

"And how will we do that." I asked.

"That is where I come in." Jack said with his green eyes filled with excitement even though his face showed none. "I am a half Fox Spirit. My mother came from India and my Father was a nine tail. The could not live together peacefully for along time, but they still got married. They lived together for seven years. But by the time I was five father had to leave. He visited my dreams to help me train, and to control my powers. He did come back when I was fifteen and my mother was dying." He said sadly while he was looking out the window. A single tear fell, but still no sadness betrayed his voice. "Then my master found me. He was the only place I could go. So I have been living with him ever since.

"Now it is time for you let go of me." A voice came from behind me. We all turned around to find Derek at the door way. "I want you to go with them to the city and find a new life." Derek said. "Why do you think I invited a haunted man, and her." He pointed to me. I was attended that he didn't even say my name, but I didn't say anything. "You have served me well, but now it is time to find a new life."

Tears were falling down Jacks face. Then he smiled, "Yes sir."

"Aww, how touching." An eery voice said out of no where. "Mr. Crow might have figured out our trick, but that does not mean it is over yet."

Ava screamed in pain. And fell to the ground. "Ava!" I shouted and ran over to her. The she looked up her eyes turning a dark color. Then two female voices said at the same time threw her. "Try to exorcise us and she dies!"

We all backed away. She stood up and walked towards Crow who was siting in a chair looking emotionless. Ghosts/Ava picked up the sword on the desk next to him and leaned over his shoulder and said in his ear with an pure evil smile on her face.

"This girl has a hard time protecting her thoughts. Yes, you look like a hero in her mind, but you aren't really are you? No, you are just a selfish man who has and still will break hearts and destroy lives." She started to walk around him. "You are just a coward Pretending to be brave." Ghost/Ava points the sword points the sword at his throat. "What stops me from killing you right now."

A ghost of a smirk appears on his face. "Ava is stronger than you." He simply states.

The ghosts smile turns into a frown. Then she screams. A visible dark aura starts to come from Ava. Jack immediately starts to exorcise the ghost. He stars to recited something that I couldn't repeat if I wanted to. It sounded all like gibberish to me.

There was a final screech and then it was all quiet. Ava collapsed on top of Crow the sword collapse to the floor almost hurting Crow. It was funny because Crow might was looked annoyed but on the inside he was freaking out not knowing what to do.

That was how we all meet. It is an end leading to a new beginning.

Ava informed her mother that she was old enough to start a new life and that is exactly what she was going to do. We decided that we would we would start a company. A detective agency that you could come to about anything, supernatural or not. The office would be in London at the building my brother owns. Apparently he won a whole entire building from a bet with a rich drunk. The top floor would act as an apartment for all of us temporarily to see if it works out. I am not a big fan of the city but I will have to deal with it. Derek is supplying the furniture and clothes for all of us as a thank you gift, and for Jack. Jack is a little nervous about all of this but I think it will work out. No one can guess what type of adventures we will have, I am just excited to start.
