Maddie's Intuition

Authors note: This is in Embers point of view.
I felt a cold breeze blow past me as I stepped outside. The clear moon looked down on me with its pale roundness. I kept thinking about Maddie and the dipstick. She was sure nice while we were doing all of this crazy stuff. Maybe there is more to life than just revenge and power. I shook my head violently trying to get the thought out but no prevail. I couldn't be a good ghost could I?
Thinking about such things didn't make me realise that I was walking closer to a bonfire with several villagers. The thing that brought me back to this harsh reality was the cries of them spotting me. Each one growled and lit a torch and floated towards me.
"That's something new." I muttered to myself. They were turning more ghosts like and by dawn they would be pretty much full ghosts. Quickly I took them out with out much trouble. They were getting easier to beat almost too easy.
I came up to a door with a knocker like a snake. It was locked and had a scripture saying "find a sacrifice" whatever that meant. This was a good time to rest. I slid down the wall and let my hair down. I brought my knees close to my pale chest and thought about my past life. It was good to think of the old days.
I walked down the street in New York City. This was it. My first recording after three years stuck in a garage with my buds. We were ready to play a song and I started strumming the strings. My brother and the manager were at the glass wall smiling. God I missed my brother it seemed so long since I saw him. His brown hair was in his eyes but it was the thing that girls swoon over him about.
I opened my mouth and started to sing with a haunting yet calm tone.
When I feel blue I think of you cause its true. I think of you so much baby.
Sometimes the beat of my heart jumps when your angelic face shines upon my tearing face.
The drums started to do a calm rat tat rat-tat and my voice got slightly higher.
I feel so much in my fantasy the same dream keeps repeating in my dreams and words cannot describe how I miss you so much!
Finally the guitar started to play loudly and the drum picked up its pace and a fun beat started to play.
Where ever you are I keep seeing your face la la la la ohh yea. And when I stop at that bookstore I see your memories consume me and we think together. Oh we think together!
It started to get calmer but the fun beat continued. I nodded my head as the familiar lyrics filled my head and bust through my mouth.
There is life wherever you go. I feel it all around me swarming me with its love and magic. Oh yea baby come see me tonight and sleep peacefully in my bed.
I feel like I'm on a drug but its not true cause everything is so much better just like I'm flying! You and me make a difference in a world. Oh god please don't leave me now…. Woah!
Where ever you are I keep seeing your face la la la la oh yea. And when I stop at that bookstore I see your memories consume me and we think together!
I started to play my guitar with a solo the notes filled my fingers as they strummed what I imagined the song would be. It felt great to play this song.
Where ever you are I keep seeing your face
I see your memories consume me
I see your memories consume me
You make me high and I fly to touch the sky please stay with me. My memories consume you your memories consume me! Words cannot describe how this relationship works!
The song ended with a soft la la la and the song stopped. We clapped our hands and the manager congratulated us.
A tear went down my cheek. A week after, an accident happened. It was on Tuesday September 11 and we were on a plane that was hijacked and sent crashing into the twin towers. Instantly we died. But our souls were angry and bitter.
I got up and went around the building to find a man made hole. I knew this was going to lead me to find the missing ornament so I jumped down. I found three a switch and mine carts beside the middle one. I knew what to do. Ride in it to get to the next area. I turned the switch on and rode in the back.
After a few minutes I saw platforms and more villagers jumped down on the carts. Frantic I threw them out but more jumped on. I finally had enough and threw pink blasts at them killing them instantly. I didn't want to use it but they left me no choice.
"Alle alle!" cried one as a man and women jumped on with the same lifeless red eyes. I threw the woman off and blasted the man. I had some sympathy for them all. Saddler will pay for what he did to all of these people.
Suddenly the carts started going downwards in a spiral. I clenched the cart side and closed my eyes. Finally it started to slow down but I looked in horror as the cart was going into a black abyss. I jumped and flew towards the other edge. I felt a sting at the back of the ghost shield but I kept pulling onwards. Finally I felt the edge in my hand and I gripped. I was climbing and I got up and looked back.
I couldn't believe I went through all of that. I couldn't believe that I was doing any of this. But I struggled on and found the item in a chest. The lion was in my hand and I knew it. Putting it in my left pocket I saw a ladder and went up it. I suddenly thought of the earphones. I decided to check up on Danny.
"Dipstick?"
No answer.
"Maddie?"
Not even an answer from her. I frowned and started going up the ladder faster to reach them. Something is wrong and I need to go find them to see if they were all right.
