Ghosts "Y-yes?" You can hear how nerves I am, I hate that and I hate the sympathetic smile she's giving me. "I'm truly sorry if I
startled you there dear. I was only looking for you're friend Victoria" I shrug the twitchy feeling off and say, "Y-you mean T-Tori?" "Ah
yes tori, do you know where I could find her?" "I'm right here" Tori says while jogging up the stairs with two bags in her hands. I turn
to see her. She looks anxious you can just tell. That reminds me that I should go find Adrian. I give one more glance to sapphire before
I walk downstairs. "Hey Simon have you seen Adrian?" "What?" He says a little confused like. Looks like a came in on a Important
conversation between Simon and Derek. I rub my neck uncomfortably "um Adrian? Have you seen him?" "Oh yeah he went out back
back" I mumble a thanks when I notice how stiff Derek looks. His long black hair sweeping over his face. "Derek have you talked to
Wolfe?" "No and I don't need to talk to her she can't teach me anything I already know" I can't believe how rude he's being. I mean
how can he say that? "How can you say that Derek? Wolfe can teach you-" Derek jumps up from the couch. "Teach me what?" His
voice becomes a octave louder, I can hear the slight roar in it like a warning almost. "You can't teach a Wolf" he says, his eyes glint a
glowing green for a moment. "You can teach them not to be such an ass all the time" Wolfe says while coming downstairs, her amber
eyes glow yellow and holds a demand while speaking up. I turn back to Derek who doesn't say a word but defiantly looks like he can
punch something right about now. "You ask me what I can teach you? I can teach you to hold back on your emotions to not let them
get in control of you. It's what the wolf feeds off of gives it more control. That can be dangerous, you can be dangerous. So let me help
you Derek" she says with as much demand as her eyes speak. I've never seen that much confidence in a girl that's only a few years
older then me. I wish I can be like her ...I wish I can stick up for myself like she did. I've never seen Derek speechless unless he chose
to mute himself out. "Alright" Derek says under his breath while starring back at her. Me and Simon give each other a look and my
hands gesture to the back door. He gives me a nod and I take that as my signal to go. I see Adrian right away. His shadow just right
passed the trees up ahead. "W-wait!" I should after him. I regain my breath after catching up to him. I look at him but not his eyes. I
can't there to intense. The way he looked at me before like I wasn't a stranger. Like he knew me. I gulp loud. I have to ask him it's
been bothering me since I first met him. "W-why? Were you out here ...alone?" I say my last word softly not trusting myself to really
speak up. His eyes meet mine. Even though I tried hard to avoid eye contact. he some how found away and not I can't look away. "i
Wasn't alone though" He says so serious, he's not being sarcastic he really means it. A flash of worry washes over my face. I'm afraid of
Him, and he knows. "Am I going to learn anything today?" Before he even answers he grabs my hand, i feel my self tense but i don't let
go because i'm sure he has a reason. I notice we're moving further away from the house. My breaths quicken. "There's a grave not far
from here. I need you to see it" I stop and let go of his hand. "What? No! That's I-I-I c-cant! It's not a good- I don't think we should"
he turns and looks back at his hand for a moment then at me. He waits a moment. I noticed that, that he waits awhile before
speaking. Like he's waiting for me to say more maybe? He parts his lips. "I just want you to understand it. You don't have to summon
any one. I can help you control it. Choose to summon instead of it happening when you least expect It. That's what your afraid of" "y-
yes" I say softly. "How do you know I won't? I can't control it. W-what if I wake up the whole g-grave yard?" My eyes widen with worry.
"I won't let that happen I promise" he says soft, actually it almost sound like he was sad. I sigh and put my pockets in my hands as a
subtle way of telling him that he doesn't need my hand. I'll just follow him. And he gets that, and starts walking ahead. "W-what
necklace did you b-b-buy?" "I had a feeling you were watching" he puts both hands in his jean pockets. "Would you like to see?" He
stops, I nod. He then pulls out a black leather strapped necklace with a fractured chunk of a red stone. It's beautiful and it reminds me
of mine. Mines was once red even blue but now it's purple. I didn't even notice he put it in my hands. "It's beautiful" I say. "I-it reminds
me of mine" I touch my own. He smiles gently. "It reminds me of the one my mother had" he takes it back and puts it on. His hands
grab at it. The black button shirt he's wearing makes the color more vivid against his chest. His eyes look sad for a moment. But then
he continues walking and we stay like that for a minuet. "I lost my mother to" I say. He doesn't say a word though he just keeps
walking in silence. like he's heard enough of my voice for the day. I could hear the twigs crunching under his feet as we continue to walk in silence. Maybe I shouldn't
Have said anything. I almost bump into him when he stops abruptly. I
Look up to see the black French gates with "cemetery" written on top creepily like a part of it is Just begging for you to run away. While
the other part encourages you with the gate just slightly open. "This must be centuries old" I say awe like. Adrian's hands graze the
French gate before opening it. The gate screeches and I swear when it does it tells us "Go away" I hold in my breath. I knew this was a
bad idea. I'm not ready for this, why can't he see that? He turns back to me and says "follow me" and so I do. I rather follow him then
stay by myself while he creeps away. i was right when i guessed this graveyard was centuries old. everything is dirt, moss and thick cold
air. i always wanted to visit a graveyard like this one. but i always thought i'd only visit a place like this when i needed a graveyard scene
for the horror movie i would direct. Funny how things work out isn't it? as we walk further into the graveyard I get a glimpse at some of
the grave stones. Some are beautiful while the others look abounded
like some one just stuck it by there coffin and called it a day. One catches my eye in particular. "Wait" I call out. I kneel down. These
Flowers look fresh. Adrain raises an eyebrow before kneeling down behind me. He's pretty close I think I can even feel his breath.
"Susanna Franck" he says after I wipe the dust away from her last name. "Born 1802 died 1837 ...she was so young" Adrian sits next
to me and touches the flowers soft Patel. "She must have been loved by many" my eyes follow his to all the flowers around her
gravestone. If she died so long ago why is this rose so fresh? "Hmm" he says while looking at the still alive rose. He's probably
wondering the same thing. But I don't get a chance to ask since Theres a sudden change in wind I look back at him. Oh no! I did it, it's
my fault. "Get back!" He says. He pulls me away, I scoot further from him. He doesn't look nerves not even a little trembled. I gulp and
shut my eyes. "Make it go away" he says. "I'm t-trying!" I grab at my hair In frustration. I shut my eyes tighter. "Come on ...come on"
I keep mumbling to myself through gritted teeth. I open my eyes to see the wind has gotten more aggressive the broken petals whisp
away. I look back at him. "Help me!" "Shhh" he says. And looks up. I see her to. "Why would you do this to me?" She asks all broken.
She's more then a shadow but its like you can see right through her. Can see the silhouette of her gown. "I'm sorry!" "What do you
want with me?' She asks horrified. "I-I ..." "How did you die?" Adrian asks. I look at him and give him a look that says to shut up. Why
would you even ask that? It's obvious she doesn't want to talk to us at all. She sobs for a minuet before gasping and then all of a
sudden she stops and its quiet as if nothing's happened. But then the wind starts howling louder. "It was a tragedy wasn't it?" He
shouts. Trying to be heard over the wind. He seems aggressive, almost like he's angry when he shouts out her. "They killed me!" She says with
anger. I scoot closer to Adrian. "We need to go!" "No" he shouts in a desperate tone. He gives me a look. Or at last I think he does I
can't tell since his hair is blowing in his face. "Almost!" He tells me. "I promise" I shut my eyes tight. I just want it to go away! I want it
to go away now! "They said I was wicked! That it needed to be done!" She says broken. "Who!" "They said I was a witch! And I need to
go back where I came from!" I gasp. They killed her. They killed her because she was a witch just like tori and sapphire. Adrian stands
up. "Who!" He shouts. "They!-" she says but it falls silent and the wind calms into a whispery cold chill before she's gone. And there the
red rose still remains while the rest have broken and disappeared into nothing. I look back at Adrian. "You promised me!" "I know and
that's why she's gone" "what?" I say confused. "I summoned her back for you" he looks away. "L-Liar!" I shout at him. But he just
stares at me for a long moment and says, "I promise" he then turns back towards the french gate where we entthey'd from. Fading away like a ghost as the fog hides him away. I run before I loose sight of him completely
