Kevin's POV:

I asked, already worried:

--- What do you mean? 

She smiled sweetly , taking some steps towards me while I leaned back, and threw her dagger on the floor.

--- I think I haven't made myself clear, then...

She just looked at the dagger, not moving even a bit. Ada advenced towards me quickly, scaring me. Her eyes went full blank. 

I gasped, looking around for an exit.So I ran away, without really paying attention on where to.

I just ran away the fastest I ever could, always foward.

 She tried, but didn't catch me. I went in the oposite direction, getting in the woods. I stumbled in a rock and fell between the mug and the dirt, holding my knee, aching. 

--- Ouch!

I held onto the branch of the three next to me me, and got up again. I couldn't make a noise, I knew she was near, somewhere. 

I tried to climb that three the most silently I could. I got in the top of it, and I woulnd't go out that soon.

I didn't hear her voice, neither saw her face, or anything that could lead me on where in Earth she was. That's when I tried to climb higher and missed the step.

--- Damn! Why it now...

I fell in the ground, hurting the same knee again. 

I guess it made a noise because.. I could see her. 

In front of me, standing still.

--- Gotcha, runner!

She crouched down next to me, and said:

--- I can give you anything in exchange, you know...

--- For what? To accomplish your freak revenge dream? Don'tya thing I will be guilty? What would happen to me? That's not my responsability, let me be and solve your problems in your own!

She sighted deeply.

And I also think she got mad at me:

--- Let's try the hard way, then.

--- The hard way?

--- You might not want to discover what it means this time, Kevin.

--- Will you poison me again? What is the insanity this time?

--- I can be really more creative, darling, when you less expect it.

Saying that, she disapeared. 

Alright, that was scary.

 I didn't want to, I don't know, ramdonly die in a Thursday putting my shoes on because it has poisoned spiders inside.  Or in a Friday, when my oven unexpectedly explodes while I try to bake a cake. I still have to visit Mom when I get my vacations, I miss living here with her...But since she got married again, she moved with my new stepfather so...

She would handle that ghost easily.

And with this...

I gave in. Technically.

Well, I wasn't going to actually kill Cole, you know, we sort of know each other from school... I can just scare him, I bet she would already be satiesfied. I hoped so. I really did.

I picked the dagger up from the floor and shouted to the woods:

--- Alright, I've changed my mind!

She laughed before appearing to me:

--- What made you change your mind so fast, I wonder...

--- I'll do it. I'll discover who is it, make him remember and....

--- Kill.

I swalloed harshly.

--- Yes, taking the life from, putting six feet under...

--- I think now you are getting me right.

--- So, you will help me, yes?

--- I cannot leave this place but... I think I can help ya on how to make sure he came back in their youngest child... Make tests, search, try to make him recall..I'll teach ya how.

I held the dagger, running my fingers through her name craved on the back of it.

--- Another gift. 

--- What?

--- Those are really expensive.

The sun was beggining to shine again between those high tree's leafs. Birds started to chirp from above too.

--- I guess I'll have to talk to you again then, right?

She said, looking at our mansion in the courner:

--- I'm always there, Kevin.

When you less expect it, Adelaide.

I also know how to be creative.
