CHAPTER 11:ALIVE!

Another hand emerges from the ground.Everyone jumps out of shock and steps back,except for Brick. He walk over to the hand and grips it by the palm. Everyone look at each other,confuse to Brick's action. As Brick grips the hand,he pulls it up as might as he can and out comes a person,emerging from the rubbles.The only thing he wears is a black shorts.The person happens to be a boy and no taller then the ruffs. He has orange eyes and a raggedly cut raven black hair. The puffs and ruffs walk over to them and look at the boy with a weird look. "Who are you?" Boomer said. "Its me,Taka!" the boy said cheerfully. Everyone gasps as they could not believe what the boy said. "But your'e a ghost,aren't ya?" Miyako asks. Taka nodds and says,"Yes,I was.But thanks to Brick,I'm human again!". Taka smiled and soon realise that his leg becomes a 'tail' like when he was a ghost. "Well sorta..." he give them a cheesy smile. The 'tail' reverts back into a pair of legs.

"We better get our butts away from here before anyone finds out." Brick suggest.Everyone nodds in agreement and went back to their homes. They left just in time as the police arrives at the crime scene. Since Taka has no place to go,the ruffs decide to bring him along with them. As they walk,Taka look around his surroundings,feeling amazed."Wow!Looks like everything have chnage for the past 60 years!" he said,feeling amazed. The boys laugh and Brick says,"Yeah,but you better don't act like that anymore or people will think your'e a weirdo.".Taka nodd with a silly face. Some people around them are looking at Taka as he doesn't wear anything except for a pair of black short. A few minutes later,they arrive infront of the forest. Taka stop and look at the boys. "You said you guys are bringing me to your home?" Taka said. "We are.Just follow us ok."Brick replied. Taka nodds and follows them. Finally,they arrive infront of their 'house'. "So wheres your house?" Taka questioned. The boys chuckle and Brick starts to knock the 'door'. Feeling confuse,Taka was about to said something when a woman came out of the tree. "Woah!" Taka said,surprised. The ruffs laugh at him as he fell to the ground."Who is this?" Ronna ask. "His are friend!" Boomer said cheerfully. "Well come on in then! What's your name?" Roona ask,smiling. "My name is Taka!" he said with a smirk. Once he was inside,his eyes widen like the moon in the night sky.

"This place is great!" Taka looks around,feeling amaze but also confuse with stuff in the room. "What's this?" he points at the Xbox. "That's an Xbox."Boomer said. The orange-eyed boy continuos to look around and took several books they called magazines. "Can't believe everything has changed for the past 60 years..."he looks through the magazine titled "Monster Trucks". "Yeah well,you'll get use to it." Brick said as he enters the room,bringing a t-shirt and a pair of blue jogging pants. "Here" he threw the clothes at Taka's face. "This will do.Where's the changing room?" he ask. The ruffs points at the bathroom not far from him. After he changed,he comes out but somewhat feels a bit uncomfortable. "Nice!" Boomer commented,giving him a thumbs up. Taka smiled and follows his action. "Now what do we do?" Butch asks. "Let's play some games.Taka,wanna join.?" Brick said. Taka nodds with a smile and starts playing with the ruffs.

While playing,Taka's mind was wandering somewhere else. "I've been relased from this dreadful curse." He thought outloud,smiling. "But that dreadful witch puts me in it in the first place!" His smile turns upsidedown. "What's wrong?" Boomer ask looking at Taka. "Uh nothing..." Taka gives him a fake smile. They continued to play like there is no tomorrow.

(Later that night)

"Well Taka,heres a matress and blanket for you!" Ronna said,smiling at Taka. The ruffs are already sleeping,with Boomer drooling and his saliva drips down to Butch's shoulder,unnotice. He takes the stuuf and went to bed,waiting for the next day to come.

(The next day)

The girls are walking by the hallway,going straight to their classrooms. Suddenly Momoko bumps into someone,who happens to be Brick. "Hey watch it!" Brick said,rubbing his head. "Sorry Brick,didn't see ya." Momoko replied,rubbing her head as well. "Anyway we're late for class,so we're going." Brick added. Crossing her arms, "Look who's talking" Buttercup said. "So Taka is gonna be our new classmate?" Momoko ask. Brick nodds as the group enters the class. A few minutes later,Ms Keane entered with a boy following her. "Well then,why don't you introduce yourself?" She said,smiling at him. "My name is Taka,nice to meet you all." he bowed and took his seat right next to Ren.

Here's the 11th chapter people.I know its short but it was meant to be so.
