Before updating the real chapter tomorrow, I decided to make this bit of Mara in a separate chapter, as a promise that the story is still alive.
Thank you everyone for all your reviews, it's amazing for me to see you like this! It's even more incredible when I see new reviews even though I didn't update in months. I love you all!

MARA'S POV
I woke up early that morning… I always wake up early, but that day was especially early. I just couldn't sleep more and if I tried I ended up thinking about my strange dreams and the tattoo I had on my right shoulder.
I had no idea how this was possible. It wasn't logical for a tattoo to appear on my shoulder.
A couple nights ago I had a strange dream involving Senkhara, the ghost Eddie and I had been investigating. In the dream I was chased by her and then she touched me and I woke up. I don't remember any details, but the mark appeared in the same spot she had touched me.
I didn't know what to do with that. Who should I tell. I thought about Eddie and I even tried but he seemed off lately, so I didn't succeed… Who could I tell besides him? Everyone would think I'm crazy, but the tattoo was a clear proof. And so the two days passed…
Then it was the matter of Jerome and his family. That was another mess I got in without realizing how big it was. I don't regret it, though, I care about Jerome and about his sister. There was just too much in my head lately.
Anyway, I woke up and carefully went out of my room. I tried not to make any noise because Joy and Patricia were sleeping. Then, I made my way to the kitchen, but I didn't enter it.
"I know, Fabian! She's our friend too." Amber's voice whispered.
Without making much noise, I tried to get closer to see what was happening. Patricia, Eddie, Amber, Alfie and Fabian were standing in the middle of the kitchen and Fabian looked especially down.
"But it's my fault! I should-"
Eddie took him by the shoulders and made him look at him.
"Fabian, listen, we are going to save her. I don't care how much it costs, but we need to think about this, alright?"
Save her? Who was in danger? Oh my God…what did they do?
Patricia looked at them serious. "We should keep playing."
What?
"Keep playing?" Alfie interrupted. "You want to throw all of us through a hole?"
"No, think about it, we can have her back if we win. So we have to win."
Win what? What were they playing?
I need answers.
