Callie couldn't believe her eyes.

She really couldn't.

She had come to the beach to start walking to what she remembered was the girls house from memories that aren't her own. Poofing wasn't an option, so she had to walk. Exhausting, but she made it work.

Maybe she wanted to run into Reggie at the beach. Show him that she escaped, that she found a way out.

But instead she's standing in shock, watching the boy she felt so strongly for kiss the man she had befriended so passionately, as if they were star-crossed lovers in a past life.

And the look on Reggie's face as they pulled away, filled with so much love and trust...

Is that what happens when you don't betray your friends? You get... reciprocated feelings?

She could walk up to them, say something...

She doesn't even look like herself, though. She's still in this girl's body.

So she straightens up, lifting her chin and turning a different direction.

To Julie's house.

For some reason, this girl knew directions to Julie's house as well. Callie can see brief flashbacks of the two girls together, laughing, talking, but other than that, nothing worth digging into.

Once Callie makes it to Julie's house, she gently raps her knuckles on the garage door, causing Alex and Luke to look up, their brows furrowing in confusion.

She smiles, waving at the boys, stepping into the garage. "Hi."

They still look confused. Alex, however, is the one to speak up. "You can see us?"

Right. Wrong body.

She snaps her fingers, looking at herself, taking a breath as she waves a hand. "Right. Um. Long... Complicated, story. But... It's me. Callie."

They don't seem to get it, Luke's head tilting to the side.

"I'm... Not in my body... Right now?" Callie says, shaking her head, looking at herself. "I think... I think I possessed someone."

Still nothing.

She sighs. "Okay... About six months ago I watched all three of you guys play in the Hollywood Ghost Club because of this stupid deal that you made with Caleb, and-"

"Okay, alright, Princess, we get it." Luke says, waving a hand at her, stepping closer. "But... God, did you... possess Carrie?"

"Carrie? I don't know. I just saw this girl, and... I was being all depressed and shit, and next thing I know, I'm inside her? It's very new to me." She says, looking up at him. "How do you know this girl?"

"I don't. Julie does. There's some pictures of her, Flynn and Carrie together. In her room. Think they were friends at one point, but... Carrie just left maybe. I don't know." Luke says.

Alex furrows his brows, looking at the boy. "Luke, you went in her room again?"

The brunette turns five shades of red before clearing his throat. "Not the point."

Before anyone else can say anything, a woosh is heard and a very dazed looking Reggie materialized in the room, a small smile on his face as he ran his fingers through his hair. He froze when he saw the three of them, his eyes widening at the sight of the unfamiliar girl, pointing. "Carrie."

"Callie." Luke and Alex say at the same time, leaving the girl to wave awkwardly.

Reggie's eyes get bigger, and he shakes his head. "Callie?..."
