I've been following the group for a while. They seem to be head back to their kingdom. Wizard seems to be happier now. Instead of crying or yelling at me, he's quite silent.

Nightfall was coming quickly so they decided to settle down. I settled down as well, making sure they couldn't see me.

"Can you sleep Wizard? I can't, I'm too excited for what's going to happen tonight. You won't be alone anymore so I bet you're excited." Wizard didn't talk. Of course he didn't talk, he never talks unless he wants to be mad. I look over at everyone, now asleep. "The best part is that your going to help me with this. Is that fun?" Wizard made a face at that.

"I'm not helping you, you psychopathic bitch." I didn't care about the comment.

"Yes you are. You don't have a choice."

"I'm already dead, can't you let me rest in peace." I grabbed a rope and approached him.

"No ghost gets to rest in peace. Trust me, I know that." A grabbed Wizard by the arm, to preform a small spell. A spell I originally got in trouble for. Necromancy. To be more precise, temporary necromancy. It reminded me of the first time I tried it. I always got frustrated when my test subjects died again. But in this case, it was needed.

I watched as he screamed from pain has he felt his death again. Then he was alive. I quickly covered his mouth and walked him to where his friend were. Then I let him go and left.

As he continued to scream and twitch his friends start to wake up. By the time, he stopped and was fully alive, his friends was was in disbelief. One girl started to step backwards, Strawberry. She was almost at my reach. Before his screams started again. He was going to died. Again.

She froze as her friends when to help. And a grabbed her, muffling her screaming. Her friends couldn't hear her over Wizards screaming, none of them noticed with they were trying to help Wizard. It was perfect.

I shouldn't be doing this...

Dragging her away was the easy part. Keeping her down was hard. I used the rope I was originally kill myself with to tie her to a tree. How ironic. But I can't kill her just yet. I know I'm far enough that if she screamed they wouldn't be able to hear, but if they looked for her, they would most find them.

I left her and walked over to the rest of the group, who was now confused. A young boy, almost a toddler, was scared, but most importantly vulnerable. He was at the opposite side of the small camp the group had set.

I walked around hiding in bushes to make sure I wasn't visible. A grabbed his foot and let it go. Amiss all of the cause, he let out a scream with cause the group to go silent. That was my cue to leave.

He struggled though sobs to explain someone, me, grabbed him though the bushes. I heard them talk a bit, grab their weapons and leave, clearly forgetting about Strawberry in the chaos. I grabbed the ghost of Wizard and pocketed a knife I saw on the camp before we left to where I left Strawberry.

"Wha- What did you do?" I ignored him, finally see where I left Strawberry.

"You helped me just fine, Wizard." I showed him her terrified face.

"No. You wouldn't."

I grabbed her weapon and broke it in two pieces. Wizard had tired to grab me, but he was weightless.

I feel the adrenaline running though my veins.

At first, she was scared. I took a mocking swing at her.

Then she was in pain. I punched her in throat. I took a pocket knife and stabbed her with it, carving though her flesh to expose her gut. I cut her lungs out, throwing it to the side. I pulled out intestines and stomach. It pulled at her esophagus. I guess that was enough of that.

Then she felt nothing at all. I cut off her head and walked back to the small camp. I put the head in the middle of it, leaving a mocking note with it. I cleaned myself up and left the scene, both ghosts in hand.

"I told you, you wouldn't be alone for long Wizard."

Why am I like this...
