Jesse's Exorcism Party- Chapter 13:
She's not gonna show. I know it. Either that or... Nevermind, she's coming... If that's her walking towards me with a huge bag of stuff.
"A little help!" She said, coming closer. I opened the trunk so she could put the stuff in, then thought better of it, and helped her with the stuff.
"Gosh, I didn't know exorcisms took that much stuff!" I exclaimed, the bag was huge!
" They don't- usually... but this is not a regular exorcism... it's a mass exorcism... plus, I didn't know what all I needed, so I brought all I had..." She said, "any ideas?"
"Um... yeah!" I answered, "You wanna send them somewhere- nice... or- naughty?"
"Anywhere- as long as they pay." She said, "I want them to pay... especially him."
"Oh-kay..." I said, amazed at Suze's sudden change in personality, "Then make a description of where you want to send them- make one up. Do you know who all the people are?"
"Yep... I got pictures of them from the books in my basement... the old books finally had a use... I found out why he was murdered too- cheating on Maria... with 'Sylvia'... it served him right!" She said.
"Hmm..." I said, "Figures... and justice is holding him back?"
"No- Revenge is holding him back." She said, "Jesse planned to do a soul swap with me and Maria... then murder her, like she murdered him... I was just a little piece of the puzzle... I still don't know why me."
"Ask him, before you send him on the ride of his afterlife!" I suggested. She shook her head and smiled, laughing a little.
"We're here!" She singsong-ed upon our arrival at her house. She took out a bag full of salt and began to go around the outside of her house pouring it.
"What are you doing?" I asked.
"Making a circle, then we'll set up the candles and stuff... no one living is around- they're out at some sports thing for Brad... so we can put the stuff in the middle of the house, giving none of the losers in my room any clue as to what we're doing, or any time to escape." I shook my head in agreement and helped her pour the salt circle.

"Jesse!" She called. He appeared, his girl and hundred closest friends in tow.
"What do you want now!?" He asked, not noticing me.
"Paul" Suze said, offering me her hand. I took it, with a nod.
"What is he doing here?" Jesse asked.
"Helping me!" Suze said, "You see, he's not bad at all really... no, that was you all along... Jesse, I know your plan, you told it to me yourself, but why me?"
Jesse laughed evilly, "Haven't you figured it out by now?" Suze shook her head 'no', "You are Maria's closest living relative... so sad that it makes you related to me too... I would never want to be related to someone so- so-"
"That's enough" Suze said, "Jesse, I just wanted to say goodbye and to tell you that I hope you enjoy your afterlife with Sylvia... because your plan has backfired" I started the exorcism, "You and your friends are going somewhere I hope I will never have to think of again- I had fun creating a final destination for you though... I hope you hate it!" She smiled innocently. As much as I like her, she is beginning to scare me.
"What are you doing you stupid little bitch!?" Jesse hissed as he and his friends began to glow red.
"Something I hope I never have to do again" She answered, single tear running down her cheek. She joined me in the chanting of the exorcism verses. Jesse and them started to smoke. Suddenly they all burst into flames and disappeared. Suze burst into tears and fell to the floor. I let her cry and began to pack everything up. The next time I go somewhere with her I hope we have a good time- and it doesn't result in her scaring me or crying.
"He's gone!" She said, coming up to me. She gave me a hug, "Thanks for helping me. I would never have been able to get rid of him without you. I really did like him... the sad part is up until the very end I hoped that he'd turn around and say that he was kidding and that all those people were his buddies, trying to help him plan our one year anniversary of knowing each-other... I know it's stupid, but it's true!"
"It's not stupid..." I said, "I better go... grandpa probably needs me at home...See you tomorrow... Are we still on for the dance?"
She smiled, "Definitely!" I got into my car and drove home to my big glass house.

SO?! How bad was that? Hopefully not very bad... oh well, next chapter will be the dance. ~Chels
