Chapter 2: Hallucinations

 

Mindy and Orion wasted no time in taking their showers and getting dressed.

 

"Mike!" Orion finished buttoning up his white collared shirt that was a gift from a child's spirit they had met back in the basement of Freddy's. "Hurry up with that phone call, Mindy and I are waiting!"

 

"Alright, man, we'll see you in a few hours...who? Oh, you'll know us when you see us. Alrighty. Goodbye." Mike set the receiver down.

"Who was that?" Mindy adjusted her blood red tie against her white blouse.

 

"An old friend of mine." Mike kicked back in the chair.

 

"Who?" Mindy smoothed her navy blue skirt and adjusted her knee-length white socks.

 

"You'll see when we meet him." Mike grinned. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I'll be back in ten and no more." With that, Mike started off for the bathroom for a shower.

 

"He sounds confident." Mindy whispered to her older brother.

 

"Yeah, and the guy's ego's about the size of an egg. That's what's got me worried." Orion shrugged. "He really seems hooked on catching this 'demon'." He shook his head.

 

"Let's wait for him in the living room, brother." Mindy gently took her brother's hand in her own.

 

"Of course, sister." Orion gently squeezed her hand and the two headed off for the living room.

The rest of the night was certainly interesting for the twins. Mike seemed overly confident and that kind of scared Orion, since he knew Mike was seldom ever confident in himself. At around 5:30, he announced to the gang, "We leave now."

 

As the twins and Mike piled into the car, Orion found it right to ask "Where are we going?"

 

"To visit that friend I told you about earlier." Mike smiled slyly and backed out of the driveway.

 

"How long's the drive?" Mindy asked.

 

Mike snorted. "Heck and a half if I know." He laughed. "Maybe only about twenty minutes at the most." He knew how impatient Mindy got in the car.

 

"Ah, well." She sighed. "At least it's not two hours." She rested her elbow on the windowsill of the car and stared out the window.

 

She's been doing that a lot lately. Mike realized. Must be a new habit of hers.
