'What we going to do now?' said Mickey after a few minutes of silence

'I don't know but I'm so bored' replied Sam

'Bored enough to find an empty storage cupboard?' said Phil hopefully

'Not that bored'

'Oh ok'

'How longs past since the Inspector came up?' said Jo

Terry looked at his watch 'Fifteen minutes'

'Is that all?' said Mickey shocked

The wind howled again and bits of debris hit the windows.

'What about ghost stories?' said Terry

'No I hate ghost stories' groaned Sam

'Well you can cuddle up to me' added Phil quickly

They all agreed it was the quickest way to pass time and Sam shuffled her way round to lean against the cupboard next to Phil.

'Ok' said Terry 'This is about the ghost of Sun Hill. One day a long long time ago the land on which Sun Hill police station sits used to be the home of Mrs Smith. Nobody cared for Mrs Smith and she used to spend long days sitting next to her window watching happy couples and families walk by. When she turned eighty on her birthday Mrs Smith passed away comfortably in her home. Nobody realised she was dead so her body lay for weeks before someone complained about the smell. Her body was removed and buried but her spirit lived on in her house. Eventually the house was knocked down and the police station was built. To this day her spirit still lives on in this station. You can tell she's about when the doors swing open and shut but there's no one there. Then there's usually a scraping as she drags her nails up and down the doors then after that it's just an eery silence'

'Is that as scary as you can manage?' said Phil 'That was rubbish'

They all jumped as the windows rattled again. Then Sam's heart raced as the CID doors swung open. Everybody looked up as they swung shut.

'Who's there?' said Phil not as cocky as he was before

Next came the scraping as they heard nails running up and down the door.

'This is a wind up' said Phil standing up and heading over to the doors

He got a shock when he opened the doors and saw no one. He turned back to face the others when someone jumped on his back and covered his eyes. Phil started screaming like a girl and fought his way back to the others. Kezia stood by the main door tears running down her face as she laughed.

'You lot are to easy' she said sitting down beside them

'That wasn't funny' said Sam

'I knew it was you' said Phil

'That's why you started screaming like a girl was it?' retorted Jo

'I was just putting it on'

'Yeah yeah' said Mickey

'So where have you been anyway Kezia?' asked Terry

'I was down helping Sgt Smith and Sgt Ackland with the people in custody'

'And then she helped herself to a quickie with Sgt Smith in the Inspectors office' added Phil with a grin

'How did you know Phil? We did go for the supers' office but he's in so we had to settle for the Inspectors. So what you lot up to anyway?'

'Nothing just talking' everybody mumbled

'That sounds like fun'

Silence echoed round the room until they heard footsteps. DCI Jack Meadows came in.

'Anybody here?' he said

'Sorry Guv we're on the floor' said Phil

'Oh right. It was just to let you know the whole of Sun Hill is without power. I think it's affecting the whole of London and further. You can go home but you're equally welcome to stay here, seeing as your homes would be freezing'

He walked out the office leaving the six of them trying to figure out whether to go home or not.
