Update time! Sorry it's taken me longer than usual. Here's my update, hope you like it!
"Susannah! Querida!" I felt someone's arms go around me. "Susannah, are you ok?"
"What happened, Jess?" He put his arm around me and lifted me up off the ground. "I don't know. One minute you were fine, and the next you were on the ground screaming for Jack to stop. He wasn't even in here."
I looked down at my dress to see if there was a mark where something was pinning me. There wasn't. I took a deep breath and said, "I guess everything just caught up to me."
He nodded, but looked concerned and said, "I guess it did. Come on, let's get back outside." He took my hand and we exited the haunted house.
There's a chill in the air
You hear a creak on the stairs
You've got a knock on your door
Is there anybody out?
"Where were you too?" Mercy asked us as we made our way back to her and Paul who had just came out of the physic reading. Paul smirked, "Jesse! I'm ashamed at you! I guess I should have guessed it. You two dissapearing like that. But still, de Silva. We are so close to a church and she has to stay a virgin until midnight."
"Slater-" I looked over at him. A look that said 'it's not worth it'. Jesse nodded, but still gave Paul an evil glare. I glanced up at the clock.
11:50
10 minutes...
They're out to get you
To capture you
And make you
Spellbound
Howling and frowling
You're shivering, quivering
Spellbound
My heart started pounding loudly. Jesse's grip on my hand tightned as he brought me closer.
"It's time..." A voice rang out. And everything froze. I swear. Everything. Everybody...everyone. Except me, Jesse, Paul and Mercy.
Jack was smiling as he walked up. "Hey, Suze." Ghosts started materializing out of nowhere. They looked to be from Jesse's time.
"Suze, I'm sorry it had to be this way." He grabbed my wrist. Jesse made a move toward me, but I looked at him and said, "I have to do this." Jesse nodded and stepped back. Jack laughed as he pulled me up toward the Mission's balcony.
You can not run,
And you can not hide
Yeah you gotta face it baby
Things go bump in the night
Where ever you run,
And where ever you hide
Yeah you gotta face it baby
Things go bump, bump, bump in the night
He stood on the balcony and pushed me in front of him. "We all know why we are here tonight." The ghosts started chanting something, but stopped when Jack yelled, "Silence!" They all stopped and looked at me. Jack continued, "She has the power that will set us free." He leaned closer to me and whispered, " La sangre de la esmeralda, nos fija libres. La sangre por elegida será nuestra energía por siempre de estar. Fíjenos libres, elegido uno. Vivamos esta noche. La sangre será tomada de la virgen en rencor."
It was in spanish, so I didn't understand it. But Jesse sure did. "Slater!" He yelled at Paul, " You simulado! You said she wouldn't be hurt!"
"I didn't think she would be! Jack, don't hurt her!" But Jack wasn't listening to his brother. He took my tiara that had fallen in the haunted house and placed it back on my head then took out a knife and out it under my throat.
"Susannah!" I could hear Jesse screaming my name, but I couldn't see him. A fog was swirling around us. I could hear many voices ringing in my ears. Voices I didn't recognize.
"It is done!"
I felt a pain in my neck. I put my hand to my throat and saw when I pulled it back, it was covered in blood.
"NOO!" I felt cold arms go around me and pull me away. I was slowyl slipping unconsious. "Susannah, don't do this." Said a girl's voice. She sounded like she was British.
"What's going on?"
"Open your eyes." I opened them to see that I was still in my white ball gown. I sat up and also saw a place I hadn't seen in, oh..about 150 years.
That was Carmel circa 1850. Or around that date.
"What's going on?" I asked again. I turned around to see who brought me here. I gasped when I looked into her emerald eyes.
The only thing different was her long blonde hair.
But everything else was, well...
Me.
Things go bump, bump, bump in the night
If you review I will update again tomorrow!
Lots of Jesse love!

(Oh and Jack was saying this-Blood from the emerald, sets us free. Blood by the chosen one will be our power forever to be. Set us free, Chosen one. Let us live tonight. The blood will be taken from the virgin in spite.)
