Hey guys, it's Rachel. And yes, I was out for four days. Concussion does that to you I guess. Skyler's been working his butt off to take care of me, and he crashed on the couch once we finally got home. Ben hasn't appeared in days. I think he's gone.

I haven't turned on that goddamned game on since I got hurt. That's probably a good thing.

I was so wrong about all I've predicted before. I'll tell you the reason why.

I walked upstairs to take a shower and think for a while.

I was in there for probably forty-five minutes before I turned off the faucet. As I wrapped my towel around, I smelled something sour, like...

Burning flesh.

I pulled the curtain back so hard it ripped off the rings and fluttered down to the floor.

Link was lying in the middle of my bathroom floor; charred black, burning down to the bone, still alive, and screaming.

I shrieked at the top of my lungs. The next thing I heard was the thumping of Skyler dashing up the stairs before the crash of the door opening and hitting the wall.

"Rach-! Oh my God..."

Link's flames spread all around us and I started sobbing. Skyler made a wild leap through the flames, grabbed me, and ran out the front door.

He called the fire department and we waited. We watched our home burn down to the ground.

The fire department didn't believe us when we said Ben's ghost was the one who set the house on fire.

They found no evidence of Link ever being there.

And the only things that survived the fire was the N64 and the cartridge.

I think Ben is trying to kill us. We can't get rid of the cartridge, and it obviously can't be burned. We're calling an exorcist tonight.
