Cassie's POV


Donna calls us over while Aimee and I are just setting up the board; Aimee rolls her eyes and sighs because of the distraction. We stand and walk across the room to where Donna is bent down looking at something. The shadows on her back dance like crazy and our walking disrupts the air around us. I still haven't seen anyone which is weird. Normally in a house with as much clear spiritual presence as this someone would have appeared to me by now. Maybe they are just waiting for the right moment. Aimee reaches Donna first and bends down beside her.


"This, this is also rather dramatic."


Donna narrows her eyes at her.


I bend beside her, and they both shuffle over a bit as I aim my flashlight at it...... And drop it.


I am staring at a willow tree painted all black with is skeleton branches. Reaching out over these four beautiful dolls as if trying to keep them close.


"Alright, this is starting to give even me the creeps."


"That's a first" mumbles Donna


"Guys. Shhh" I whisper putting my finger to my lips. The tune of the song Lila was singing is drifting through the room. I pick up my torch and slowly start to move it over objects until finally coming to a music box now sitting open on the desk, it's little ballerina twirling in the centre. We all turn and look at each other.


"Ok moving on...we should probably start the board now before things get totally out of control, or Donna faints again." Aimee says.
