The Life of Lolita ~ Chapter 11: Ghostbusters
Hi. I uploaded a YT video of me (attempting) to play piano. If you fancy watching it, link to my channel is on my profile. The next chapter of this story, should be interesting info in there. I also need your help! New phone, or Beats headphones to be spent with my birthday money? This story will probably be finished in two weeks, at the most. :( Though, it'll open new doors for new projects of mine, I have a couple in mind. One last thing, still having keyboard troubles, where the occasional letter is missed out. Apologies in advance.
A few days later
I'm hanging out with Zelda, and by the sound of it, mom is rummaging through the attic. We decided to go up there and see what's going on exactly. Last week, Zelda dyed her hair red and got blue highlights to go. Some of the residents of Sunset Valley now glare at her, but then again, some of us still treat her exactly the same. How she should be. Anyway, I emerged from the stairwell up to the attic to find the entire place literally full to the brim of old junk, where did it even come from? I opened up an overhead box to see what was inside and its contents came crashing down on me. All I could hear was Zelda laughing her head off, and what sounded like mom trying to help me out. I eventually saw the light... and the floor. It took a good few hours to clear the entire place out.
Mom pulled out some old thing... it looked almost like a... stereo? It WAS a stereo! That thing must have been ancient, but does it even still work? There was only one way to find out. I brought it down into my room, Zelda following. Keeping my distance, I plugged it into the socket, and it fired up. Took a few seconds to tune in, and then it started playing SimCity Radio, my favourite station! It has all the pop songs on there. Though it wasn't long before Zelda tried to retune it to Bridgeport Radio, where they played the indie songs. It's a nice music genre and all, but not really my thing. It took quite a while before we eventually agreed to SimCity Radio. Score one for Lolita.
A few hours later
Zelda decided that she would stay the night. The paranormal is really active tonight, there are noises and bumps everywhere. I swear I heard a plate smash from the kitchen. Guess my grandparents are arguing again.
(Mid-chapter update. Wow, no speech so far? How long will this keep up?)
Mortimer was getting restless, I could hear from his room. It didn't take long before he appeared in my room, rubbing his eyes. Wow, that literally is even more than the definition of restless, the way he looks.
'Lolita, the ghosts are annoying me. Bella's grandma keeps throwing things at me.' he yawned.
'What? Bella's grandma? What's she doing here?' I replied, slightly confused.
'You don't know? In the last few days, all the ghosts from the graveyard have came here. I don't like it.'
Zelda and I looked at each other. We knew what this meant. It's ghostbusting time.
Mortimer didn't wanna join us, so we left him inside the house. Running into the kitchen, I grabbed the two powerful torches that were stored under the sink. Zelda then grabbed our jackets and we zipped them up. We're ready.
Creeping out of the house, I spotted a ghost right away, it came in the form of someone who calls himself the Tragic Clown. Would that miserable freak just GET OUT of my yard?! He often hangs around by the pool, by the looks of things he drowned. I could push him in the pool again, but I don't know if it's possible. Zelda and I are resorting to torch power only. I turned my baby on and shone it directly at the Tragic Clown, causing him to scream.
'WHAT ARE YOU DOING, CHILD! DON'T MAKE ME CALL THE SOCIAL BUNNY TO SORT YOU OUT!' he cried.
'No, Clowny. I don't need the social bunny or any help. I'm completely alright. Unlike you. Just go, and stay away from my house!' I threw back, before shining the torch right at him again, hearing the most high-pitched screech that I've ever heard in my entire life, it was unbelievable.
Zelda POV
I heard Lolita arguing with someone, followed by a scream. Holding back laughter, I patrolled the Goth manor grounds and literally collided with Enriqueta Bachelor, with Queenie Landgraab. Okay, double whammy. I don't wanna do this to my best friend's grandma, but I have no choice.
'Hey there grandma, sorry but NEVER throw things at a 7 year old when he wants to sleep. Thanks!' I smirked, before grabbing the torch from my side and shining the extremely bright light at both ladies, who attempted to run, well float, away. It was too late for them, though. They vanished into thin air. I turned around a little too quickly though, and bumped facefirst into Lolita. Ouch.
I needed to get this chapter finished ASAP, my new bedtime now that school is back is 9:30, usually it's past midnight. So annoying. It's also my birthday today! Best one that I've ever had. :)
SONG FOR THIS CHAPTER: Ghostbusters Theme Song. Oh yes.
