Author's Note: I don't own these people, though I'd like to. I thought I'd cover Ellie in this chapter. Review!(please)

Chapter Three: Ellie

Daddy was walking through the woods. He was carrying something big and heavy wrapped in a white sheet that had red on it. Pascow looked at him, obviously not happy.

"He's been taken, darling. So has your mommy. Don't go with either of them; death and evil hover over them, destroying them. You must not return to Ludlow, or you will be destroyed as well. Do not go, Ellie, for if you are reincarnated, you will be lost forever, like Gage."

Nooo! She tried to scream. I love them! I want my Daddy! I want my Mommy! I want GAGE! Help them , Mr. Paxcow, sir! Please, you've gotta help them!

Pascow merely looked at her, his eyes sad. "I can't, honey. I can't cross the barrier."

Daddy was digging frantically in the dirt, wincing as boo-boo's appeared on his hands.

"Stay away, Ellie. There's nothing to do. Stay away Ellie…"

"DAAAAAADDDDY! Muh-Muh-MOMMY!" the five-year-old shrieked.

She looked around. Pascow was fading, still looking meaningfully at her. Just as he disappeared completely, Ellie's grandmother and grandfather burst threw the door. Ellie stared at the spot where Pascow had been, willing him to come back.

"What is it, dear? Another nightmare?" Grandma asked, following the direction of Ellie's eyes, puzzled.

Ellie sighed, a very adult gesture for a five-year-old that would've worried Louis, had he been there. Gandmama and Grandpapa thought Paxcow was a "maginary friend". They didn't believe her…didn't understand her like mommy had.

Just thinking of Mommy made Ellie's eyes fill with tears.

"Ellie?"
