The shadow that follows me.

[[Lizzies pov.]]

I didn't expect for these events to happen so quickly, I thought it was going to be a simple investigation like all of our previous videos but meeting Amanda and being in the Stanley hotel changed everything.

Just like it did all those years ago back in the conjuring basement, I feel sick to my stomach once again and the overwhelming anxiety taking over my body as I played back Amanda's first words to me.

"Something dark is following you."
Amanda whispered to me the morning we first met and I felt chills all over my body that feeling in the conjuring basement coming back again.

"What do you mean?"
I asked curiously as I look over to the blonde and she looks scared... I remember seeing how terrified she is just by her eyes.

"The conjuring basement... the shadow on the stairs. It never left you, Lizzie."

Amanda told me with fear in her tone and I felt like throwing up as salty tears clouded my vision for a moment just remembering that nightmare that never left my mind.

"Have I got an attachment?"
I whispered to her just eager for help to get rid of this thing and the blonde took a deep breath.

"Yes but it's not like Sallie... Sallie only appears to Sam during investigations or simple ghost huntings but this... this is stronger and it following you everywhere."
Amanda said to me and I remember looking back at Colby who was at the time talking with the others.
"Can you do me a favour Amanda? Keep this to ourselves, please?"
I particularly begged her and she bobs her head in understanding.

Snapping out of my thoughts, I glance up from my laptop to see Gemma and Amanda fast asleep on the bed as the boys slept in the other room. Why me? What does this thing want with me? And that whole creepy Estes method earlier? No way I believe what Colby said about the whole get out thing... he looked too damn scared and of course I'm avoiding him because I can't talk about it right now.

[[ The next morning.]]

I woke up at the sound of Gemma screaming uncontrollably, my eyes flutter open as I nearly fell out of bed just panicking with completely fear.

"Gemma?! Oh my god what's happening?!"

My heart pounds in my chest as Gemma left the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her.

"What's happening?! The water is freezing cold that's what!"

Gemma yells out dramatically which causes me to glare at her.

"Are you fucking kidding me? I thought you was seriously hurt or something? Why would you do that?!"

I shout at her with rage in my voice and Gemma took a step back from me.

"I'm sorry Lizzie... I didn't mean to scare you."

Gemma says and I shake my head just grabbing my fresh clothes and changing into them.

"I'm not staying in this place another minute."

I say as I gather up my things after getting dressed for the day and that's when Sam and Colby enters the room.
