Toast untied Ghost and asked "Sir, what happened?"

Ghost started to wipe his tears away "I remembered something from my past. It was just horrible and scary. I'm a monster Toast."

Toast sighed "Okay. What exactly did you see?"

Ghost took a breath "I was at my old home and my father was there. He referred to me as Gregory. I was felling him about a voice I was hearing in my head. His name was Jimmy."

Toast stared at him in horror in his eyes then said "Oh um wow... okay... ugh go on."

Ghost continued "I told my father something and he looked at me like I was some monster. Gregory let this Jimmy dude 'take over' and he spoke to my dad. He was upset and was yelling at him. I... stabbed my father Toast. My own father... and just now I woke up from that."

Toast was still trying to recuperate what Ghost told him. "Wow. Sir that is some really devastating news. Are you sure you weren't hallucinating?"

Ghost yelled "Toast, I most likely have killed my father! I felt an electrifying pulse and passed out. It triggered my memory from my past. You know, the past I don't remember well."

Toast said "Oh sorry sir. I was making sure, and I'm sorry about your father. You know that guy Jimmy you told me about?"

Ghost sighed "Yeah, what about him?"

Toast took out his phone and showed Ghost the article. "Read this Ghost." As he gave it to Ghost, as he started to read, getting goose bumps up his arm. Walking over to the couch and sat down. "Are you alright sir" Ghost didn't say anything. "And one other thing. Jimmy was here last night and attacked me."

Ghost look up at him "Really? Where did he go? Are you hurt?"

Toast said "I'm fine. But I am looking right him."

Ghost shakes his head and gave Toast his phone "No... no. That wasn't me. I don't remember... I'm not Jimmy... wait..."

Toast went on "You were sitting up on your bed with a knife. I tried to take it away, but you pushed me and turned into Jimmy Caskett."

Ghost denied "No... no I can't be. So I'm basically three people? Gregory, Jimmy and me?"

Toast said "I guess so. Ever since you saw Cardboard Friend... he started all of this. That stupid ghost, I swear when I hear his voice again I will go all Ghost Buster on him!!"

Ghost said "Toast calm down. I need to speak with Cardboard Friend. And see why he is showing me this." He grabbed his coat and made his way toward the door.

Toast stopped him and said "Are you crazy? You can never trust a ghost's word, you don't know if they are telling the truth or not. Sir!"

Ghost said "Toast, it might be the only shot to know what happened in my childhood past. Maybe Cardboard Friend just want to tell me the truth and not play games anymore."

Toast said "Anyway, you turned into Jimmy and tried to kill me. I was terrified for my life, I'm the one who tased you so the Jimmy part of you would stop."

Ghost sighed "Oh... I'm sorry for putting you in that kind of danger. I care about you Toast, I can't believe I did that."

Toast said "I got an idea sir. Why don't you try talking to Jimmy in your mind? Try to control both you and Jimmy personalities and both of you could somehow learn to control it?"

Ghost was thinking and said "Toast... that's brilliant! But I don't know how to talk to him. You know in my mind."

Toast said "We'll don't ask me. I got no clue."
