Beka was fed up. She had been trying to find Harper for over 4 hours.
Rommie was of no help, all she said when Beka asked where he was was
"He'll come out when hes ready to talk." Beka growled at the memory. Rommie
didn't understand. No one on the ship understood that if Harper didn't tell
her something, it was bad.
Beka turned the corner slowly because she thought she heard voices. She peeked around into the next hall to see Harper halfway down it,talking to himself.
"Well what do I do? They're gonna find out sooner or later, Beka's going to be pissed that I didn't tell her the truth she knows when I lie."said Harper.
There was a pause then he said,
"Could I at least tell Beka?" he asked the air around him.
Beka chose this spot to let her presence be known.
"Tell me what?" she asked, as if not wondering why he was talking to himself. He sharply turned to see her, a horrified look plastered on his face. He was at a loss for words.
"B-beka I-I uh.you weren't there a minute ago" he said lookind desperate to change the subject.
"Tell me what?" she repeated, coolly.
Harper glanced beside him where Maureen and Sam were, his eyes asked what to do. They thought for a moment.
"You should tell her, but only her no one else." Said Maureen. Sam nodded.
"k" said Harper simply.
Beka just stared at him, she had watched him waiting for an answer but getting a "k" to thin air. She was beginning to get impatient, she wanted to know what was going on NOW.
"Harper, spill it." She demanded.
"Alright do you remember when I got shot?" he asked nervously.
"Vaguely" she sarcastically said, waiting for more.
"well it did something to me. I'm told," he turned his head to face Maureen and Sam before turning back to Beka. "I'm told that I'm part way into another dimension, it is called the Black dimension. Its where all the dead people live and being that I'm partway in there I can see the dead people. They can always see us but since our dimension has a wall we can't see them." he paused for a moment.
"so I can see dead people." Hs stated simply.
"Have you been watching that movie again?" she asked thinking he had just scared himself too much.
"no Beka one of the ghosts is named Sam and he told me that Jameson."
"The Alysonian?" Beka interrupted. Harper Glared.
"Yes, he is going to kill Dylan and this was all a set up. There is this spell, its called an allowence and it gives Jameson the ability to get a ghost to kill Dylan."
"okay stop there. Your telling me that a respected Alysonian leader is trying to kill Dylan using ghosts?" she asked.
"Yes, The old Alysonians can see ghosts and they use them to kill people and that's what Jameson is doing to Dylan. Because Dylan can't see the ghost, he cant stop it." Said Harper.
Beka sighed, it had been a long day and she didn't need to put up with Harpers crap. He, seeing that she didn't believe him decided to say more.
"Beka, Kindly tell me why the Alysonians always win elections." He tried a different approach.
"Because the ones they run up against always get killed by some unknown.murderer." He paused realization filling her eyes.
"Harper how did you really get that scratch." She asked, fear in her eyes.
"Ghosts that died here still are here, Beka. That includes magog." He said. Finally getting somewhere.
"oh my god you mean a magog did that? But how did they hurt you but the haven't hurt me?" she asked.
"the only time ghosts can hurt us is if some one gives an allowence for them to do it or you can see them."
"how do we stop this ghost from killing Dylan." She asked, worried for her friend.
"I have to stay with him all the time to make sure no one goes near him." Said Harper.
"Okay so what do I do?" Beka was feeling helpless.
Beka turned the corner slowly because she thought she heard voices. She peeked around into the next hall to see Harper halfway down it,talking to himself.
"Well what do I do? They're gonna find out sooner or later, Beka's going to be pissed that I didn't tell her the truth she knows when I lie."said Harper.
