Sleepover
Chapter 7: Ghost stories part 2
"Ok I got one, a really good one this time," Demyx said.
"Is this one written on a note card too?" Axel asked sarcastically.
"No, but it's a modern classic, here it goes; there once was a little girl named Xonelel who was very excited because she'd have the house to herself all night. Her parents were going out for a romantic evening and leaving the older sister in charge. Unbeknownst to them; the older sister had a date and was going to leave after the parent's were out of site, then return before they got home. Before her parents left, Xonelel was talking to her online friend; Emily. She told Emily everything; including where she lived and that she'd be all alone. Xonelel didn't know that on the other side of the conversation, Emily was in reality, a creepy old guy in a sweat stained wife beater shirt. After the parent's and the sister left, Xonelel went into her sister's room and started trying on make up and her sister's clothes. While she was doing that, "Emily" snuck into her house. After playing around in her sister's room for about an hour, Xonelel got tired and called her dog for bed; the dog slept under the bed. Later that night it started to storm, Xonelel heard the whimper of a dog, so she decided to stick her hand under the bed. She felt the dog's licked and said "It's ok, it'll pass." Just then she looked up at her mirror and written in blood it said; "People can lick too."
"Oh man that's freaky," Axel said.
"What happened to the girl after that?" Roxas asked.
"Well they say the girl's sister came in at that moment, so she ran to her. Then the two went to the little girl's room and saw the mirror. The older sister was holding a metal bat, she looked under the bed, but nothing was there. So then the older sister went into the bathroom and saw their dead dog hanging from the shower rod." Demyx added.
"Well isn't that lovely?" Axel asked, "Tell us another one Demyx."
"Sure, Captain Kurk was a great man of the seas."
Roxas started laughing.
"What's so funny?"
"Oh nothing not a thing, just tell me something Demyx, was his ship called the Enterprise?" He continued to laugh.
"I dunno," Demyx was clueless, "Anyways, he had this weird dream one night. He was standing on a beach when this mysterious man named Aoi, walked out of the mist and towards him. As the man passed the captain; he reached out as if to shake his hand. But his grasp felt cold and slimy to the touch. It was almost like the skin of a dead fish. The captain let go of the man's hand; then Aoi walked into the surf, where he dissolved in the water. The captain woke up drenched in sweat and trembling. A few days later; his ship was caught in a storm, struck by lightning, and at two in the morning, sank. The captain went around in a lifeboat looking for any survivors. He saw one man floating in the water; he reached for his hand; it was the same texture as a dead fish. He flipped the man over; it was Aoi from his dream. His dream was warning him that his ship was going to sink soon."
"Well that was interesting… I'm going now," Axel said," In Michigan there is a story called "The death car". A girl named Lex bought a 1980 Porsche for $1000. She had to take it back to the dealer because of an awful smell. The dealer washed out the car and changed the mats; but the smell would not dissipate. When the car came to the dealer; the trunk could not be opened, so no one ever tried to. She then asked the dealer how he got the car. He told her that it had been parked in the same spot on the side of the highway for several weeks. What he didn't know that a man had killed himself in the car and his body hadn't been discovered. The dealer decided to try opening the trunk one more time. This time it broke open, and inside was a shriveled corpse."
"That's really gross," Demyx said, "Roxas, why don't you tell us one."
"Sure maybe this time Scottie and Warf will be in it."
"What?"
"Never mind; Ruru had just inherited a house from her wealthy grandmother. One night she awoke from the most chilling, lifelike dream she had ever had. She awoke gagging, dripping with sweat. She glanced at the closet door; in her dream, propped against the wall inside the closet was a mutilated, blood-soaked corpse. She then picked another room to sleep in. Ruru also had a few cats; after a few weeks she noticed that none of them would go near the bedroom where the dream had occurred. One night she had a friend spend the night; in 'the room'. The friend complained about the 'strange noises' that kept her awake and the appearance of an apparition. Ruru decided to spend one more night in that room. She woke up in the middle of the night and came face to face with the most hideous face anyone could imagine. It reeked of decomposing flesh and had oozing sewer-like water pouring from its eye sockets. Needless to say Ruru ran out of the house screaming."
"Good one," Demyx commented.
"My turn, here's another chilling classic," Axel started, "Kiraxi went to an overnight camp. The camp had a history; it was built in the seventies by a strange man. The man wanted to build a camp where children could have fun, but no parents would let their children go. So one night, the man kidnapped all the children and brought them to the clubhouse; where he hacked them to bits with a hatchet, then killed himself. Since then no one's gone near the clubhouse, until little Kiraxi came along. She decided to sneak away from the regular camp activities to check it out. After a few hours, a scream could be heard from the clubhouse. The head counselor, Naxan, herded all of the children into the cafeteria. She locked the door and told the children everything would be alright. She made them some lunch to calm them down. After a few hours all of the little campers were asleep. Naxan went to the backroom and returned with a hatchet, she was the great-granddaughter of the builder of the camp; the hatchet man."
"What happened to Kiraxi?"
"No one's seen or heard from here since that day."
"Axel," Kiraxi jumped out of the bushes, "YOU HAVE ANGERED MY SPIRIT, NOW I WILL HAUNT YOU!"
"Oh my god it's a ghost!" Axel started running around in circles.
"You idiots I've been here all along and I'm not a ghost," Kiraxi smirked, "So do you guys want to hear a really scary ghost story?"
"Sure," Roxas said."
Kiraxi started, "Once a man was hung for a murder he did not commit, as he was burnt to the stake on the town square he yelled out 'I will have my revenge on those who have ever betrayed, tricked, or burned me!' A few centuries later, a house was built over the town square. And the whole story's true, it happened in the next town over. The ghost calls himself Jedimickey and is pretty unforgiving."
"Wait a sec did you just say Jedimickey?" Axel asked.
"Yeah why?" Kiraxi asked.
"Didn't we prank him?" Roxas asked.
"Oh dude we are so screwed…" Demyx said.
Looks like the boys are going to be haunted by one angry spirit…
Kiraxi: Wait, they're going to be haunted, I'm outta here.
