The haunting of Phantom manor

Chapter 2

Galaxy was amazed by the town of Thunder Mesa. A town completely live in the 1800's with no sign of modern technology. Jasper couldn't help but smile at the young woman but also worried for her. His master had already taken a interest in her and that was never good.

"It's like I stepped back in time. This whole town is incredible and not touched by the 21st century." Galaxy said getting his attention.

"We prefer it that way." Jasper replied.

"That's fair. Makes things better when you aren't surrounded by negativity and hatred." Galaxy replied.

Jasper nodded before he noticed something on her neck, or rather some horrible looking scars.

"Galaxy if you don't mind me asking, how did you get those scars on your neck." He asked.

"OH these? I was attacked a while ago and my attacker left these before my friends, or rather my family came to help me." Galaxy explained.

"Did he get away?" Jasper said curious about that.

"Sadly he did because everyone was busy trying to keep the bleeding from getting worse." Galaxy answered rubbing the scars feeling a moment of phantom pain.

"That is fair. Worry more of the injury and worry about the attacker later on once you are ok." Jasper said.

Galaxy nodded agreeing to that. Jasper then noticed it was getting close to sunset and that made him panic slightly.

"We best head to Ravenswood manor. We don't want to keep master waiting." He said.

"Of course. Lead the way." Galaxy replied.

Jasper nodded as he took her to the manor that rested on a hilltop. Galaxy was amazed and rather shocked.

"Stars above I not expecting this even though you said manor." She said.

Jasper chuckled as he opened the door for her. Galaxy smiled and walked through, finding the inside of the house to incredible. She spun around somewhat before speaking.

"And i thought the outside was grand." She said.

Jasper nodded before they heard footsteps. They turned to see Henry Ravenswood walking over with a maid. Galaxy then looked at him.

"Your home is beautiful." She said.

"Thank you. You must be rather tired from the day so I will leave the tour for tomorrow. Alice will take you to the room you are staying in." Henry said.

"Sure." Galaxy replied with a smile.

"Follow me then dear." Alice said.

Galaxy nodded before following her upstairs. Once out of earshot Henry chuckled.

"Such a sweet girl." He said.

"Indeed. Master what do you plan on doing to her?" Jasper asked.

"Nothing yet but I do plan on her joining us." Henry said.

Jasper looked at the man in worry because that was what he feared. Henry chuckled again at his look.

"Rest assure I won't do anything horrible to get her to join us. Not unless she angers me." He said.

"Of course master." Jasper replied still worried for the girl.

Meanwhile Alice had taken Galaxy to a beautiful room and she was shocked.

"OH my. I was not expecting this." She said.

"Master wanted you to feel welcome as much as possible. He also said that you are welcome to wear the outfits in the wardrobe too." Alice said.

"When you see him let him know I appreciate this since he doesn't need to do this." Galaxy said.

"Of course. Now I will leave you be to get settled. Oh I left you a snack on the desk in case you were hungry." Alice replied.

"Thank you. Good night Alice." Galaxy said.

"Good night dear." Alice said before leaving and shutting the door.

Galaxy smiled before eating some of the food before heading to bed. After changing into a nightgown Galaxy crawled into the bed and soon fell fast asleep.

A few hours later around one am a figure entered the room and watched the sleeping girl. Walking over the figure brushed a knuckle along her cheek.

"Such a innocent beauty. You will make a wonderful addition to our town." The figure said quietly.

They observed her for a little longer before leaving, as they left the figure spoke again while looking at Galaxy.

"Welcome to Phantom manor my dear. Enjoy your stay here with us. Forever." They said.

They soon left the room without making a sound and leaving Galaxy to sleep. When morning came Galaxy woke to sunlight hitting her eyes. She then sat up and stretched before getting up. She then walked over to the wardrobe and opened it.

She gasped in shock at the dresses. They were beautiful but not her style. However Galaxy was going to wear them because she didn't want to insult the owner of the house that gave her permission to wear them. Once in one of them, Galaxy smiled. This was going to be a interesting trip here in Thunder Mesa.
