Chapter Eleven

Ten paused for a millisecond before dashing out the room, Jennette and I quick to follow. He made a sharp turn and ran to the direction Casey and Tyler had gone in.

"Hey," A sharp voice called from behind. Ten and Jennette continued to run down the hall but I stopped to waited for the oncoming Amy and Eleven.

"Come on?" I called breathlessly as they reached the creaky floorboard I stood on. Amy rolled her eyes, took a breath and continued to run.

We ran together toward the end of the hall were Jennette and Ten stood in the doorway. Tyler stood a few feet in, slowly yet surely backing away from the monster that stood in the middle. But it wasn't a monster. It was Casey.

"What happened to her?" I squeaked out.

"She… She touched that!" Tyler cried, pointing at an empty glass in the middle of the room,"And… and then that happened!" By that Tyler ment the ghost of Casey standing in the center of the room. She was beautiful, unnaturally beautiful. Her makeup had somehow fallen off and underneath lay blood red lips and pale, pale skin. Her blue eyes seemed to jump out of her skull, their startling shade the color of Hawaii's turquoise waters. Casey's pony tail had fallen out and her sun kissed brown hair stood in a perfect curly halo around her beautifully shaped head.

And her clothes. They had rippled and changed into a flowing white dress made of satin and silk. She was scarily beautiful, like a goddess about wage war.

Casey stood, her feet now bear. "Save me," She rasped in a voice that didn't belong to her. "Save me!" Her voice wavered.

"What's wrong?" Ten asked quite seriously, slowly stepping toward her.

"He has me!" She screamed, "I'm trapped! So trapped. Save me." Her voice turned to a whisper, "Save me."

Eleven, Tyler and Amy all turned to stare me. What? I mouthed. Do something! Amy mouthed back. Why me? I responded. Because! Do something! I sighed and smiled in Casey's general direction. "Save you from what?" I asked sweetly.

"Him!" Casey called, "HIM!" She lifted a finger elegantly and pointed toward the closet a few feet away from the door. "Him." She whispered and then collapsed.

"Woah there," Ten muttered and caught Casey's body before she hit the floor.

We stood in silence for a moment before Tyler lost it.

"WHAT WAS THAT!" He yelled, "What happened to her to her?!"

"What was in that bowl she touched?" Eleven asked.

"It… it looked like blood." Tyler mumbled, "Casey touched the blood and then turned into that!" He glared down at the silhouette in Ten's arms. "How is that even possible?"

"You're in a Time Loop right now, Mister," Eleven muttered, "There are a lot of things that shouldn't be possible but still are."

"So… we have a possessed corpse, two Timelords and a three way Time Loop." I said, "What next?"

"Now we go see the monster in the closet."
