Frances stood behind Crystal and by the two ghost boys, Charles decided to bring her on the Becky Aspen case while Edwin didn't want her to come along, but Charles begged and begged until he agreed to. "So what's the plan again?" Frances questioned while looking at the big house "Charles and Edwin get Becky's parents talking so they're focused on Becky so I can read her mind, you might be able to do the same." Crystal explained what the plan was to have a vision on who or what took Becky "Sounds great" Frances nod her head.

"we can figure out another way if you like" Charles spoke, he had a disguise of an older man with a deep British accent while wearing a cop outfit, while Edwin had an disguise of an woman with an American accent and wore the same cop outfit, the parents would definitely tell the two boys what happened to Becky. "Let's hurry this up." 

Frances followed Crystal to the side of the house "I know you said your psychic abilities aren't strong but try to focus on Becky, okay?" Frances squatted down on the floor, her knees touching the green grass that looked like it hadn't been cut in awhile "got it." The parents of Becky started to talk, meaning it was now time to focus on trying to see a vision. Frances shut her eyes tightly while repeating the words 'focus' eventually, she saw something.

The vision had a small girl with puffy hair, Becky, walking into a blurry big house that was in the neighborhood, a adult by her side while holding Becky's hand, but of course the woman's image was blurry.

Frances opened her eyes and turned her head to look over at Crystal, a wet line coming from her eyes "Are you okay?" Frances put her hand on the teens shoulder "yeah, um, what did you see?" She quickly wiped her tears with her palm then she got up from the grass "I saw a blurry house and a woman holding Becky's hand" Frances followed Crystal's movements "did you see who it was?" The brunette shook her head in a no, a disappointed sigh came out from Crystal's mouth "lets tell the boys"

They all soon met up and walked in the empty road "turn up anything valuable?" Edwin asked both of the females "uh the police found her shoes, if we get them I can see what happened to her" Charles looked at Frances "What did you see" Frances looked up at the slightly taller boy "I saw a blurry house and a blurry woman holding Becky's hand" Charles smiled "See Edwin, they make the cases slightly go faster" Edwin scoffed "she saw a blurry house, what clue does that give us?" He said in a negative way "I know my powers aren't as strong as Crystals, but you don't have to be such an arse about it" Her head turn down as she looked at the gray, bumpy road, it made her feel bad that she couldn't see things as clearly "Don't worry, I think you helped us quite a bit" Charles elbow softly hit the side of Frances arm "really?" She asked with a smile, it was nice to know she was useful in a investigation "Hmh" He smiled right back at her.

Edwin rolled his eyes, he went over to a mirror that laid on the floor by the trash and went inside of it "can all ghosts do that?" Frances questioned, she never saw that before and she saw tons of ghosts "Yup, the many things we can do" The other ghost boy responded "he's just being a showoff" He added to his sentence. Soon after, Edwin popped back up from the mirror with an evidence bag that had white shoes inside, they belonged to Becky before she disappeared. 

"We all have talents, girls." He quickly gave Crystal the bag, the only strange thing was that his hands were black and smoke came out, as if he burnt his hand "wait- did you burn your hand?" Frances sped walked to the old fashioned boy to get a closer look at his hand "its nothing." He waved his hand in the air to cool it down "Iron bars." Edwin decided to add on "I didn't know iron burned you" Crystal stared at the plastic clear bag "We don't hang around a lot of iron. Burns us and forces us to be like, solid for a few takes." "You're a ghost, can't you just possess a cop?"

"We never possess people" Edwin informed "Well, I have an iron knife in my kitchen. If you two misbehave I can just burn you guys" Frances smiled when she threaded them "oi, lets not do that"  Charles suggested "Then be nice to me" She shrugged "I am!"

"are you reading to talk to the shoes?" Edwin cut in Frances and Charles conversation "I'm not talking to them... I'm reading them." Crystal froze for a few seconds before gasping "well, what did you see?" Frances asked the teen with her eyes wide "I saw a big white house, I know where it is." 

Crystal led the way to a house, a large white house that had trees overgrowing all over the yard "Frances, is this the house you saw?" Charles asked the brunette, "yes, it is. I remember the shape and the trees" Charles chuckled "See Edwin? She is helpful" Frances hid the smile plastered on her face, happy that someone in the group liked her. 

Charles dug in his backpacks where he could put as many stuff he wants in it, he got out a golden spyglass monocular so he would be able to get a close up on what's inside "So old fashioned" Frances commented "yeah but it gets the job done, doesn't it?" He said before he put it close to his eyes "pots on the stove, crow in a cage, no sign of anyone" He described what was inside the big house. From behind the group, a meow was heard "piss off cat" Frances hit Charles ankle "ow! What was that for?!" He complained "Don't be mean to the cat" 

Frances turned around and went on her knees, it was a brown male cat with big eyeballs "Aww look how cute you are" The cat slowly walked over to the girl, she had her hand out a stroked the soft fur, making the cat purr "wait a second, do you know anything about this house?" Edwin asked the cat, it made Frances laugh that he was talking to a cat "its not like the cat is going to talk to y-" Crystal got cut off by the cat "Fuck you, i'm not telling you nothin about that house or the witch inside" Frances quickly got up from the ground with a confuse expressed "did that cat just talk?" She asked with her mouth agape "He sure did!" Charles laughed loudly, he thought what the cat said was funny "oh my gosh what the hell" 

"the bad news of being a witches house is that they are tricky" Edwin turned his head to look at the large witch house "you guys can handle a witch, right?" Crystal asked with a chuckle to hide the worry in her voice "I didn't know witches existed but yet again, ghosts do and talking cats" 

"Let's talk about this somewhere else, shall we?" Edwin suggested "oh yeah there's this cafe around the corner." Frances brought up the cafe place where she usually drinks coffee in the mourning "lets go"
