Hey, wow I almost forgot about this ^^; Well glad I remembered with lots of time to spare! :D And I absolutely love this story! Ohh…so that's why I can't update A Matter of Time DX I'll see what I can do after I do this chapter :) Oh, and I've been quite busy lately with school and that the fact I've got a drawing tablet and the latest version of Photoshop ^^ But I haven't got much time left to spare, plus I've got homework that's due next Tuesday and I haven't even started it XC
Lol I've got to stop talking about my life and start talking about Chapter 4 and yay! Finally got some favs and followers! :D That's what keeps me motivated with stories ^^

Carol's POV:
I don't understand, how do these people know my name? Are they stalkers or something? I'd better get back to where-wait, where do I actually live again? Okay, I'm 13 and I'm an orphan so that would make me live….oh man I don't know.
Not long later, I saw a woman who looked like in their late 30's. She had brown hair and wore a jumpsuit, what kind of place is this? Who wears a jumpsuit?
"Caroline! Are you alright? Please tell me you're okay."
"She fell earlier from that minor Earthquake we had." The boy with black hair explained, wait a minute. What Earthquake?
"Caroline? How do you know my real name?" I asked raising an eyebrow.
The woman looked puzzled at my question of confusion; it seemed that I had confused her but how? How did she know my real name? No one ever called me that, but I heard that my mother did before her untimely death.
"Carol, it's your mother Maddie sweetie."
"Mother? No, I never knew my mother. So how could you possibly be my mother if I've never seen you before in my life and that we look almost nothing alike?"
"Carol, I have no idea what's gotten into you but I am your mother! We have the same hair colour! You're the only one out of my three children that actually looks like me." The woman cried with fear as she twirled her hair around her finger.
I just don't get it, who are these people? And why does this woman think that I'm her daughter? I've never seen her in my entire life! How could she possibly be my mother if we look nothing alike and that we've never met before? And besides, my parents died long ago so how could she possibly be my mother anyway?
"Uh oh, I think she 'hit her head' in the Earthquake." The boy guessed while rubbing the back of his head.
"Look, can I just get back home where I belong? Because this is clearly not where I belong."
"Um, this is your home..?" The red haired girl corrected, I think.
"Carol, I don't like this. Mum, I'll take care of her."
"But Danny, she's my daughter! She's more valuable to me than anything else in the world!"
I heard a loud sigh in the background outside the room, it sounding like a man about the same age as this woman who seems to be comforting me when I'm actually perfectly fine.
"Mum, please listen."
The woman started to cry as she hugged me tightly while I looked confused and uncomfortable with this situation.
"Um, can I leave now? This is really not my place to be right now."
"Stop this Carol!"
"We should get her to a doctor." The red haired girl stated.
"No! I mean, she's fine where she is. I'm sure if we just trigger her memories then she might remember us." The boy whom I think is called Danny explained, now why does that name sound so familiar? Where have I heard of that before?
Danny's POV:
This is bad, that ghost has stolen her memories! At least we still have a chance to regain her memories back, that's strange. I wonder why she only remembers her name and not her family and friends, what if she can't remember that she have ghost powers. Oh no, this is definitely bad. We have to fix this and fast, but I have no clue where that Nectorya has gone.
"Mum," I spoke as I laid a hand on her tense shoulder; her eyes were smudged with watery tears and mascara. "She'll be fine, Jazz and I will take care of her. I promise."
Mum got up and wiped away her tears with her sleeve, she hugged me tightly with hope. It felt like a fan girl hugging me, kinda like Paulina when I was in ghost mode.
"Take care of her dear, and if anything goes wrong then you immediately alert me or your father. We'll both be downstairs…worrying….deeply…"
I smiled in reply with hope; Mum could see the truth in my eyes. She knew I could take care of her, and she knew that Carol always would look up to me and only me. Just not in the way that she knows, Carol trusts me more than anyone.
But, with her memories gone, she will definitely not trust me. Jazz and I will have to do our best to trigger her memories again. It's going to be hard but it's worth a shot.
Let's hope she does, and let's hope that Danny and Jazz trigger her memories back and defeat Nectorya! Or does Nectorya have a good side? Find out soon! Next update: Feb 24th.
