Chapter 12: Allyson's Visitors
Meanwhile when Danny was sleeping, Tucker brought Allyson said: "I'll be at the memorial. It'll be until midnight so don't wait for me, go straight to sleep as soon as it's eight o'clock," Tucker said.
"Why?" Allyson asked. "I'm not letting you stay up until midnight silly, just get into your pajamas and watch TV or something," Tucker said. "Okay, goodnight," Allyson said running upstairs. "Goodnight Ally," Tucker said grabbing his coat and walking out the door, making sure to lock it tight.
Allyson put on a button down shirt covered in stars with two smiling moons for the collar and baggy pants. She jumped on the bed and pulled out the Dark Spirits book.
She pulled out a flashlight and started reading:
Welcome! In this book, you will encounter the darkest secrets known to mankind. The ghostly mysteries that surround you will be revealed. If you wish, you may proceed, but with caution.
This book is not for the faint hearted, weak, or non believing. The details this book goes into are far too vast for anyone to fully understand unless willing to know. Beware whatever you read, and do not say I didn't warn you!
Allyson turned the page, now more interested then ever.
It seems you are foolish and brave, which is why you have proceeded to this page. If you wish, you may continue!
Section 1: Ghostly Objects
If you have ever encountered a ghost, you may have seen them with something, a sort of trinket. These sorts of things normally contain the ghost's power or are a symbol of power. Most can not tell the difference between those who have power, and those who have gained it.
It's simple to identify the difference really, you simply look at the glow around them. The brighter the aura, the more likely to have gained the power from something like a necklace.
Allyson turned the page only to find the next page missing. Page three was gone! It had been torn out.
"Do people ever pay attention to these things?" Allyson asked herself. She looked at the torn spot very closely and could see a finger print on a large piece sticking out. The print was glowing green.
Allyson looked at the print for a while when she heard a noise. Her gazed jumped from the book to the window. It looked the same as it had.
She was about to go back to the book when she felt an icy hand touch her shoulder. Allyson let out a small shriek and fell off the bed landing on her bum.
"Sorry, I thought you didn't get scared easily," she heard a familiar voice say. Allyson got up and saw Danny on the other side of the bed, still in the ridiculous girly outfit she had seen him in earlier that day.
"Danny?" she asked. "Mind if I stay here? I've gotta hide!" Danny said dropping to the ground at his last word.
"What? Why?" Allyson said dropping to the floor as well. "People saw me, I think they'll call the cops," Danny said retreating under the bed.
"You mean the cops are coming?!" Allyson asked in surprise. "They might not come here, but I'm not sure," Danny said.
Allyson went under the bed and said: "Danny, I can't let the cops come here, what if my dad thinks I've done something bad?!" "Tucker wouldn't think that," Danny assured her.
"I still don't want them to come, I've had a bad experience with the cops," Allyson said.
Danny smirked. "You? Trouble with the cops?" he asked. "Well, I normally would ask a lot of stupid questions and they'd get mad and chase me down the street until Ms. Kutch came and said she'd try to stop me," Allyson said.
Danny laughed. "It's not funny, they think I'm up to something," Allyson said. "I'm sorry Ally, just didn't expect you to be the kind of person involved with the law," Danny said wiping away a tear from laughing so hard.
"That's okay, just one question," Allyson said. "Yeah," Danny said. "Are you gonna take that outfit off?" Allyson asked.
Danny looked at his awkward outfit and said: "One second." He disappeared out from under the bed. Allyson got out as well and saw Danny taking off his girly outfit with great difficulty.
"Ugh, how do you girls wear this stuff?" Danny asked trying to pull one of the sleeves off. Allyson giggled at Danny's pathetic efforts ending up in him falling over on his back.
Allyson giggled even more. "Okay, fine, we're even now," Danny said finally pulling off the shirt and moving onto the pants.
"I don't understand," Allyson said after she stopped giggling. "I don't understand the way the make this tuff either," Danny said trying to pull his foot out of the pant leg.
"Not that, why no one likes you, you seem so nice," Allyson said. "It's kinda complicated," Danny said. "Did you really kill all those people?" Allyson asked.
Danny's face fell and he gave up on the pants. He sighed and said: "Yes." "Why?!" Allyson asked in shock.
"Well, it's not really my fault, I mean, not really, I just-I mean I-what I mean is…" Danny couldn't find the words. How could he explain what happened to him to an eight year old girl who never had any friends.
"Danny?" Allyson asked. "Yeah," Danny said looking up. "Are you…evil?" Allyson asked looking scared.
"No! Of course not! I just-I…" Danny stopped when he heard a knock at the door. "Is anyone home?" came a man's voice. "Oh man, it's the cops!" Danny said.
"Hide!" Allyson said. Danny slipped under the bed again and Allyson locked the door.
She heard a noise that sounded like a door breaking down. Allyson carefully unlocked her door and opened it revealing two tall men in white suits.
"Young lady, are your parents home?" the first man asked. Allyson froze. "These weren't the cops. They couldn't be the cops. "Who-who are you?" Allyson asked.
"We're the Guys in white, and we have evidence that the ghost boy came to this house," the second man said. "I don't know what you're talking about," Allyson said a little shaky.
"Do you know anything about ghosts?" the first Guy in White asked. "Maybe, but I shouldn't be talking to strangers," Allyson said.
"That doesn't apply to the law young lady" the second Guy in White said. "But you're not the cops," Allyson said crossing her arms.
"Listen, we have to get rid of that ghost or everyone could die," the first Guy in white said. Even though they men were wearing sunglasses, Allyson could tell that they were staring her straight in the eyes to make sure she wasn't lying to them.
"He wouldn't kill anyone, no one would," Allyson said. "Yes he would, he's a threat to the human world AND the ghost world," the second Guy in White said. "You wouldn't understand though, it happened before you were born," the first Guy in White said.
"What do you mean ghost world?" Allyson asked. There was another world? With ghosts? Allyson's thoughts were interrupted when the first guy in White said: "That's not something for you to be concerned with, now excuse us while we search the area."
They pulled out tracking devices and walked around Allyson's room. Allyson ran to her bed and looked under it, but Danny was gone. "Danny," she whispered. But there was no answer.
"What are you doing?" the second Guy in White asked. "Uh, I'm-looking for my imaginary dog…Danny! Here Danny! Here boy," Allyson said sweating a little.
"We have more important things to do, look for your dog later," the second Guy in White said continuing to search.
Allyson looked out the window, wondering where Danny had gone, or if he was okay.
