HSR 15

Ember launching into a song I'd never heard before, I cringed waiting to be pummeled but nothing happened. Box ghost was taking decorations out of his boxes, they were just random, Easter eggs, a Christmas tree, birthday decorations, balloons, Saint Patrick's day ectohol kegs… Walker was directing people around.

"Uh…" I looked around. Ember laughed.

"Did you really think that we would let you leave without a goodbye party dipstick? You get to get out of here, we are happy for you." Ember smiled.

"Well… give me a minute." I dove into the house.

"Hey, bring what ever the heck you can carry that you'd think would be fun, and then lets party like we're going to die tomorrow." I smiled, "Heading to the park." I smiled.

"Aye, aye!" Someone said, I smiled and drifted back outside.

"Lets go then." I said leading the ghosts to the park. Box ghost's decorations were hiccupped all over the park, it looked like Hallmark threw up. I laughed though. Desiree set up a stage Ember taking the front and singing.

"I can't believe this." Sam said running up, I gave her a huge smile looking up toward her then drifted off the ground and laughed. There was a giant explosion and Skulker stood there holding the knob of what had been a grill in front of a smoking ruin. Then he glared and grabbed Youngblood who was laughing his ass off.

"That was my best grill!" Skulker glared a knife coming out of his arm.

"Calm down." I said, "wait… why are you here, don't you hate me?" I asked.

"It's the rules." Walker said, "You don't leave without a party from your friends." Walker said. I paused, half of my actual ghost friends weren't here. I sighed; I guess they didn't get the memo.

"Did you think we wouldn't come?" a voice asked. Danni floated there with a smile, my jaw dropped, she was older than me now! I folded my arms that was so unfair.

"Oh chill out cos, we just wanted to freak you out a bit, get you to think that you were going to be attacked." Danni smiled, "Come on." She grabbed my hand and pulled me over to where there was a giant theme park. I laughed.

Skulker's grill was replaced and he began cooking meat and kabobs. Dora was carrying around candied apple. A plethora of ghost children were playing in the amusement park. A crowd of ghosts were gathering and crowding into the park. Poindexter was following a really hot ghost girl who was giggling holding a glass of ectohol. I laughed. Poor girl.

Sam was talking some dreary looking ghosts in long black robes hoods drawn around their faces. I saw Ra directing ghost children into a Egyptian themed fun house. I was smiling like an idiot by then and laughing so hard at some of the things I saw. For example; Ghost writer was trying not to touch anybody and seemed to be spraying everything he touched with disinfectant. I didn't know he was such a germaphobe.

Youngblood was directing a skeleton crew on a giant pirate ship and shooting children out of cannons. Which didn't seem quite right but it looked fun as hell, even if it looked dangerous. The kids were screaming and giggling so I guessed they weren't hurt. Even Sarah had left her haunt and was hugging an older couple I guessed were her parents and crying it was so sweet I'm sure Sam would hurl.

Derek was talking excitedly with someone that looked suspiciously like Albert Einstein and Tucker was practically worshiping Steve Jobs. Why the heck was Steve Jobs here? I don't know.

Spectra seemed to be withering in the corner so she hung around a group of emo looking ghosts skulking in the corner. Bertrand was entertaining himself by turning into different people. I saw Amorpho watching different people pass and turning into them as if on a whim before turning back then turning into another one deeply lost in thought.

Walker was playing a drinking game. He had a funnel hooked up to a tube and was downing a keg of the ectohol that box ghost had brought. It was kind of funny. He then smiled triumphantly as the keg finished then stood up only to trip and land flat on his bottom, his dignity gone but his smile ever so wide.

A girl with flowers in her hair was talking to Sam handing her a few white lily looking flowers. Then the girl began dancing like a plant in the wind looking graceful and eventually pulling Sam into the Dance with her. It was kind of a strange sight because Ember was playing screamo music and yelling into the microphone. It was just a good thing she was a ghost otherwise she would be ruining her vocal chords.

Valerie was talking to some other ghost I didn't recognize that was wearing a long black Victorian era dress. The ghost had black skin and green eyes, the whites were black as well. Valerie seemed very interested in something the ghost was saying. The ghost seemed friendly enough but kinda looked freaky.

Angie was clinging to Tucker for dear life so I floated over to her.

"Don't worry, we aren't going to hurt you." I promised. I looked around, Tucker, Steve Jobs, and Nicolai Tesla were now in a heated debate. I smiled stretching out a hand.

"Come on." I said. Angie paused then eased her hand into mine. I pulled her into the air and flew here around. At first she clung to me screaming, but after a while her screams turned to laughter and she visibly relaxed. I set her down near Tucker and smiled foolishly then ran off.

"Dipstick, find your girlfriend before this next song, or else." Ember yelled as I flew passed and she adjusted her guitar. I nodded flying upward searching for Sam. She was talking to Clockwork a smile on her face. I landed in front of them.

"Hey Clocky." I smiled.

"Hello Danny." Clockwork responded. I took Sam's hand.

"Ember says that I have to find you before she starts her next song or else she's going to kick my butt." I joked though it was probably true. Sam nodded.

"Nice talking to you Clockwork." Sam waved. I waved back as Clockwork grew into a young child like ghost and picked a candied apple up from Dora and began munching on it.

I arrived on the Dance floor and Ember had a spot light pointed at me.

"Oi! This song is for the Dipstick, and his girlfriend." Ember yelled, "I better be invited you your wedding!" Ember glared. I laughed and rolled my eyes. I then looked sheepishly at the ground and 'grew' old taking Sam into my arm looking down at her in my new 'adult' body.

"I know it's just an illusion…" Sam leaned into me, "But it's nice." She smiled as a slow song started. Ember's voice crooning the notes softly and caressing the words making them magic.

"I love you." I leaned down and kissed Sam square on the lips closing my eyes. She wrapped her arms around my neck and returned the kiss our lips parting as it strengthened. I then pulled her closer wishing I could do this forever. I let her lean into me and tilted her head up a little still guiding her around softly to the music though I'm sure I was out of beat because all I could think about was the beautiful woman I was snogging.

After a while we broke apart, and I heard cat calls and whistles. I smiled then Sam leaned he head against my chest and closed her eyes. I wished it could last forever. But as Nocturne said my dream was ending.

Ta da!

A much happier chapter.

Parents next chapter!
