Crayn got inspired and wrote quite a bit of this chapter, he did write a whole chapter but I need to stretch it out and change some of the details. But most of it should be left the same, except for what time it is and so forth. And please, if you have anything to argue about, you can tell me about it in email or review another story to complain about it. lol. Just please, keep reviews to what you think of the story and yeah, everything should be good.
Once again, I am not forcing anyone to read this, I notice a person without a sign in name isn't enjoying this story and so he/she does not need to read it. Thank you for reading if you do like it! EXTRA LONG CHAPPY TO CELEBRATE 200 REVIEWS! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Crayn: I know I changed quite a bit of it but that's because we needed to fit something together and they have to tell heaps of stories at night time, but I hope you like it, thanks for reading!
Disclaimer: All the characters in this story belong to their respectable owners. I only own Narisha.
It was reaching the later afternoon, the sun was just beginning to go down and making the place somewhat romantic looking, not provoking any flirting though.
"Do you think they're in a serious relationship or just umm yeah." Amy asked, Rouge shrugged.
"Not like it matters much... unless we can get something out of it." the white bat grinned evilly.
Some of the other animals piled into the kitchen cabin, in which they were getting ready to have dinner. Narisha pounced at the chance to do some cooking, jumping straight to the cupboards and piling out what looked to be random food and throwing it onto a cutting board.
Amy and Rouge sweat dropped, "Does EVERYONE have to be in here?" Amy inquired.
Knuckles chuckled "It's cold outside and we're hungry!" he stated with a grin, followed by his stomach rumbling, causing him to go a bit red in the face.
"I think you're wrong Knuckles, you're not hungry, you're starving! Narisha! Put some food into this thing stat!" Rouge said rather sarcastically and then laughed. The red echidna huffed, just crossed his arms and leaned against a wall.
Narisha slapped a hand to her fore-head "YES MA'AM!" She laughed and started chopping lettuce, carrots and other fresh vegetables very quickly.
"W-watch out, you'll cut yourself!" Kyra pointed, looking worriedly at Narisha.
Narisha poked out her tongue "Nah, I've done this so many times I could to it with a blind fold!" Within moments all the veggie's were chopped up and thrown into a HUGE pot, along with some meat she must have pulled from no where. Some spices and other herbs were put into the mix, some of the animals sniffed deeply to catch some of the delicious aroma.
"Wow Narisha, you're a good cook." Amy commented.
Narisha poked out her tongue again, "Nah, I can only do Stews, sausages and mash and some other simple meals. Nothing too difficult."
"Say while we're waiting, let's tell a story." Sonic grinned.
"Why doesn't Crayn tell us some?" Said Knuckles, as he turned to Crayn, who was tugging on the chain around his neck, Crayn looked up, and saw everyone looking at him.
"Well.. If you want to get scared, so be it," Crayn said simply and sat on the bench to tell his story.
-Story-
Crayn's cousin, Mel, loved everything about ghosts. She'd visit all kinds of different haunted places, just to get near them. But one day, things went a little to far..
Mel and her friend were going to a nearby community center, that had a forest and park behind it. Witness' say that they've seen a black figure walking near the river, that ran though the middle of the forest. That intrigued Mel, so she wanted to check it out. They first went to the park. Her friend was afraid and wanted to leave, but Mel kept going on about how the ghost can't do nothing, and that she isn't afraid.
They eventually came to the park and Mel saw the swings. She loved swings, so she ran towards them and started swinging. Her friend sat on the ground somewhere else and started talking to Mel. But she couldn't hear her. She couldn't hear anything. The swing was going faster and she was going higher. She tried to stop the swing by digging her feet in the sand, but to no use. Then it stopped. Mel breathed a sigh of relief and started to swing on her own again. Her friend was still talking to her, but she didn't care.
Well, until she couldn't hear anymore. She tried to scream, but to no use. She tried to get off, but she couldn't. She felt something holding her shoulders, but she couldn't do anything. Her friend suddenly jumped up and started screaming. The thing let go and both girls ran terrified out of the forest. Afterwards, Mel's friend told her that a black figure was standing behind her, holding her shoulders. That was the last time they went to the River grove Forest.
-Kitchen Cabin-
"No way!" Cried Tails. He hopped of the bench and looked around to see if there were any shadows.
"Heh. Don't worry Tails," Laughed Crayn, "Just 'cause it's a true story and you can see the ghost in the blackest of nights doesn't mean you need to be afraid." After hearing this, Tails sat back down, but he made sure he was in-between Shadow and Knuckles.
The two strong males rolled their eyes. Before everyone knew it they were getting passed a bowl and a fork, "Dinner's ready." Narisha sang. She pulled a soup ladle out of no where and started giving everyone some.
"Great after this let's go back to the cabins to get something warm on."
"Wait! I got more!" Screamed Crayn, but everyone was already helping themselves to stew and couldn't bother listening, Crayn just glared at them all with a frown, then getting a bowl of stew shoved into his hands.
"Eat up, it'll make you stronger!" The wolf laughed.
Crayn sniffed the stew, it smelt good, POIT! "W-wait! You think I'm weak!" He yelled. The wolf laughed and ran back to the pot to help herself to some stew.
"Hey Crayn," Sonic spoke with a mouth half full of stew, he swallowed, "You have to share a cabin with Golbez." He then sipped the rest out of his bowl.
"W-what! WHY?" The echidna felt like it was his bad day.
"Shadow killed the other ones," Sonic half chuckled and received a blow in the side of the head by a bowl, Shadow glared at him from across the room and then stomped out. The blue hedgehog only snickered and peeled a bit of lettuce off himself, "Anyway, he's taken the last cabin left so you have to share with Golbez."
"B-but! There's a spare bed in your cabin right? Since Shadow left it?"
Sonic shook his head "That chao covered the thing in glue, I'm surprised Shadow even got up this morning." He snickered again.
"What about Knuckles' cabin?" Crayn thought really hard, there had to be a spare bed SOMEWHERE.
"Sorry, Shadow killed that one too, Knux has moved back into our cabin on a bottom bunk."
The echidna sighed, utter defeat.
-Later a bit-Girls Cabin-
Everyone was dressed warmly but Narisha had rolled up into a ball of fluff by the looks of it and fallen asleep on her hammock. "Is she tired from cooking?" Amy asked. Rouge shrugged "Who knows."
-Guys Cabin 1-
The guys were chatting away except Tails kept glancing at the window and praying that a shadowed figure wouldn't come attack him.
-Golbez's Cabin-
Crayn huddled up in the corner closest to Golbez, who was busy with his Gameboy SP.
"So.. Golbez.."
"Mmh?"
"Why do you always have your SP?"
"It protects me." The blue hedgehog grinned.
"Right.." Out of the corner of Crayn's eye, he saw something run by the window. He felt a shiver and his heart started beating fast..
"G-g-golbez..."
"Yeah?"
"D-d-did y-you see th-th-that.." The echidna stammered.
"No.. What did you see.." Golbez sounded almost uncaring or bored.
"I don't kn-know.. But it was b-big.." Crayn was trembling. Golbez got up and shined his SP at the window. They stayed quiet for awhile, and all they heard was a creaking noise outside. The creaking stopped. Then suddenly, a black figure stepped through the cabin wall. Crayn leapt into the air and threw Chaos Flames at it, but to no prevail. The black figure walked slowly to Crayn and Golbez, lifting it's left arm and pointing at them. Then Crayn woke up.
"What the hell!" Crayn looked terrified. He noticed Golbez fast asleep, his head resting on his SP. Crayn rested his head against the wall, and turned on his side. He had his ear up against the side, so he could hear a little bit of what's outside. He heard.. Breathing..
"GOLBEZ!" Screamed Crayn. He jumped beside him and shook him violently.
"Mmh.. Mmh..Mmmmh.. Wha.. WHAT!" Screamed Golbez, annoyed at the echidna for disturbing his sleep.
"I heard heavy breathing outside.. We got to get out of here!" Crayn yelled. He was shaking and he constantly pinched himself. It hurt, so it was definitely not a dream. Then everything went quiet.. The.. Thing.. was walking towards the back of the cabin, as the two heard the crackling of leaves and sticks. In seconds, Crayn kicked the door open, and dragged Golbez to the nearest cabin. The girls cabin.
The two practically bashed the door down, or more knocked on it until their fists were sore. Celestial opened the door "What the heck?"
Golbez jumped ahead and hugged Celestial "There's something out there! It's trying to get me!" he whined.
Crayn sweat dropped "It's after me too."
"Yeah." The hedgehog grinned.
Then they heard the creaking of a heavy foot on wood. Crayn activated his shoes and jetted past Celestial, while Golbez pushed her inside and closed the door. The rest of the girls, except Narisha, were all questioning the noise. When they saw Golbez and Crayn, they started screaming.
"Shh!" Yelled Celestial. Everyone quieted down to listen to the footsteps outside. It was getting closer.. It was in front of the door.. It passed the door.. It came to the window.. Everyone saw it. It stood tall, and had the same structure as Jason, from those Horror movies. It had jet black, scruffy hair, and was wearing and army shirt, and dog tags around his neck. His face had no expression. His arms were at his side, and he just looked in, not moving. Everyone stared back for a second, and the thing opened it's mouth and let out a huge moan, which sent everyone into a screaming spree. Then it walked away.
"That.. That.. That.." Rouge was lost for words, Amy was almost in tears, Kyra stood in shock, Celestial was hugging Golbez, Golbez was hugging Celestial. Crayn was on the floor, having a mini seizure, and Narisha.. She was sleeping.
"Oh my god.. This is crazy.. What if that thing's a perverted killer?" Squealed Amy.
"Fear not, Amy! Golbez is here!" Everyone gave a disappointed look at Golbez, who just spun around and huffed.
"Why would you say that Golbez?" Rouge asked, looking confused.
"What do you mean?" The hedgehog replied, looking equally confused.
"Well aren't... you and Celestial..." Rouge murmured.
Golbez raised an eye-ridge, "Buh?" was the only sound that seemed to crawl out of his mouth. "W-wait! You mean.. ME and CEL?" He asked and pointed to himself and then Celestial, her eye twitched. Amy, Rouge and Kyra nodded. Golbez burst out laughing and fell to the floor, holding his lower gut "Ah no I'm in pain!" He laughed and then choked a bit. He stood back up and wiped a tear from his eye "Where the heck did you get that idea?"
"We saw you two in your cabin! In YOUR bed!" Amy said.
Golbez's eyes practically boggled "When did this happen? Am I having amnesia?" He scratched his head.
"This morning." Amy muttered.
"OOHH THAT!" Golbez laughed, "Well I don't know HOW you got that idea Amy, Rouge and Kyra. I'm flattered that you think I'm even good enough to go out with Cel."
"W-well.. You guys should go back to your cabin now.." Said Rouge. Crayn gaped at Rouge.
"Are you nuts, women? Go back outside?" Rouge knew she wouldn't be able to get rid of them, so she sat on her bed and crossed her arms. Crayn laid down on the floor, as did Golbez, they were exhausted from running before and Golbez having a laughing fit tuckered him out. There was the occasional sound of crunching leaves outside and creaking wood but it eventually stopped.
Crayn sighed with relief and let his head roll to the side, his ear was against the wooden floor and he could hear faint noises of rats or something scurrying around underneath the cabin. But then he heard something else.. Like something dragging along the gravel. Something.. Big.
Crayn jumped up. He knew what it was, it had to be. It was crawling under the cabin! The same moan came from it, and Crayn jumped onto the bed closest to him which was Kyra's. The next thing he knew, he was getting a full on barrage of slaps, scratches, kicks and even a head butt. Crayn raised his clawed hands in front of his face to absorb some of the blows, and they eventually calmed down.
"What the hell Crayn!" Yelled Rouge from the bunk above Kyra.
"It's under the cabin! I heard it crawling under the cabin!" In an instant, Golbez jumped on Amy's bed, which was the closest one to the floor, because he seemed to have heard it as well.
"CRAYN! Did you hear it!" Screamed Golbez.
"I sure as hell did man!" The echidna answered with shock.
The thing was scratching at the bottom of the cabin, everyone shrieked as they heard it. Narisha finally rolled over and faintly opened her eyes. Something was coming from between the floor boards, and envelope popped through. "HUH?" Everyone sounded.
Crayn picked it up, it was a bit dirty but fine none the less, he looked at the name on the letter. "It's for Narisha..." The echidna murmured.
Before he could even think about peaking at it a hand quickly snatched it from his hand, "MINE!" The wolf laughed.
"H-hey! You know it came from a zombie thing don't you!" The echidna backed into a corner.
Narisha poked out her tongue and opened the letter, pulling out the paper inside. "What's it say?" Celestial asked, kind of afraid of it being something scary. She could see Narisha shaking a bit, the letter was covering her face, "Narisha?" She whispered.
Narisha lowered the letter, her eyes were gleaming an evil red-black colour, she was gritting her teeth and she cracked her knuckles "Oh she so did not!" She yelled and threw the letter onto the floor, quickly rushing to her box of stuff and grabbing a jacket and other warm clothing.
Celestial jumped off the bed and grabbed the letter, it read:
Dear Narisha,
Guess what! I finally found MY Metal Sonic and he's going to live with me forever and ever (A love heart is stamped after that sentence)
I'll invite you to our wedding huh? Have fun at that strange haunted Camp place you're at
Bye
Love Wendy. (A face with the characters tongue sticking out is drawn next to the signature.)
Celestial's eye twitched "Wait... was that thing your friend Wendy?" The hedgird asked with slight confusion.
Narisha was already dressed warmly "No! It was her chao Rusty, you know he loves to play jokes. And she is SO NOT going to have Metal Sonic!" the seemingly crazy wolf pulled a beanie on and her ears popped out through the holes. "Crayn, Can you come with me? I don't know if I could catch him if he's flying."
"W-what! ME? G-go OUT THERE!" The echidna whined.
"Yes you, if you didn't notice I can't fly or glide, I need help to catch that chao." The wolf said sternly.
"B-but! Why do you need to catch the chao? And are you sure it was the chao?"
Narisha's eyes glowed "He's my hostage. And I planned that trick with him myself, I know it by heart!" The wolf then grabbed the scared echidna's arm "HYPER NARISHA!" The wolf screamed and dragged Crayn outside, "I won't be back for a long while, it's a LONG way to Wendy's house! Cya's!"
"..." The rest of the group looked dumb founded, Golbez finally spoke up "C-can I sleep on her hammock?"
"Ah, NO!" The girls answered back and shoved him out of the open door.
Golbez strongly objected but he ended up face down in the dirt. He sighed and pulled out his SP, shining it around the area when a figure came into view "Hey you're not a zombie, who are you?" The blue hedgehog asked. The figure stepped a bit into Golbez's light it looked like a hedgehog, but not anyone he knew...
To Be Continued...
