Ghostly

Chapter one

Hello my name is Lisa, I died when I was 14 it's been 3 years since then I'm 17 now. I remember my whole life except from the part where I died. That part is blocked but I'm not sure why. I remember that day, what I was doing. But not how I died or who killed me. I always thought when you died you went to heaven or hell or something like that. I haven't seen any other dead people. I'm not sure if I'm suppose to. So I'm not sure what is going on.

I was at a carnival in a samll town not far from the city where I lived I was with my parents that day. We were having so much fun and then everything goes blank. I woke up in a ditch.

I didn't know I was dead until awhile after. I couldn't find my parents anywhere. The only reason I found out I was deas was because I seen a news artical with my picture on it. Above my picture it read 'Young girl found dead. Death unknown.' When I tried to leave the town to go home I found myself stuck. I can go to the edge of the town but when I try to leave it's like hitting a brick wall. I'm just stuck I can't move at all. And it's really scary.

No one can see me except for this crazy old lady. Sometimes I go over and visit with her when I get bored of wondering the streets. You wanna know the really wierd part in all of this? I aged.

It's super wierd but when I realized I was dead I thought I would have gone somewhere. I don't know where. Never really thought about it. Maybe heaven and I also thought when you died you stayed the age you were when you died. But none of that is true. I died didn't go to heaven or hell just stayed here trapped. And I aged as if I'm still alive. I don't get hungry don't have to go potty but I do age. I look like your average teenage girl. Long wavy brown hair that goes to my waist. It wasn't that long when I died. I have bright blue eyes. Like the color of the sky right after a fresh rain. I'm 5 feet even.

I want out of this town so bad but I'm just stuck here. I wonder the streets everyday oh and I sleep I usually just sneak into an empty room at a hotel at night no one can see me so no harm done. I leave the place looking nice.

One day I was in this room and someone came in around midnight. That night I watched a drug deal happen. That was pretty intense. I wonder from room to room sometimes I've seen some crazy stuff. I know that's a total invasion of privacy but it's not like they know I'm there so it's cool.

It's night now. I'm wondering from room to room trying to find one that's empty to stay in. Going threw the walls I walk into one room and there's a young man sitting at the desk against the wall on the other side of the room. "You know it's not very nice to go into rooms while people are in them. Even if they can't see you." He says turns and looks at me. I jump when I realize he's actually looking at me.

I run to the other side of the room to see if he's really actually looking at me. If he can see me. His eyes following me with each foot step. I freak out and run threw the wall into the next room to get away. That was really freaky. Usually no one can see me just the old lady. Maybe he's one of those people that can see the otherworld or something like that. Yea that's gotta be it.

I look around to find an empty room thank god. Now I can rest. The door creeks I groan thinking someone rented it to find the guy from the other room standing in the door way. No way what was up with this guy. He comes in closes the door behind me. I'm about ready to dash out of there when he puts a hand up and says "Wait I mean no harm. I've been watching you. You need a place to stay right? I rented the room for you. Yes I can see you. No I am not a physic."

"I can fend for myself thank you very much." I say taking a step back. I don't trust him. Maybe he's one of those people who try and get ghosts on camera.

"What do you want?"

"Right now? Nothing. Later we can talk. I explain everything. Your a very important person. You know that right?" He says stepping closer as I take steps back until I'm against the wall. I know with one thought I'll be threw the wall and I'm pretty sure he can't get to me there. Unless he rented that room to. Which means the dude's rich. Curisouty gets the best of me and I slip threw the wall nope. There's a teenage couple in here the guy dressed in a tux and the girl in a very short dress. Humph must be prom. Hmm time goes by quick.

I think about going back to see what this guy is about but then think better of it. I've been on my own for years now. The only one I trust is the old lady. The rest of the rooms are occupied so I held to another motel in hope of finding a room but they're all booked. I tlhink of my options which are almost none. I can go back to the room or sleep under the brige with the homeless. Maybe I can sneek into the old ladys house. I decide that's the best thing and head there.

I try sneeking in but get caught. "I thought you might come here." her sweetly soft voice flows threw the air.

"I'm sorry. I don't mean to intrude. It's just that I have no where else to go." I say with begging in my voice. Hope in the back of my mind that she'll let me stay. If your wondering why I just don't live here with her. It's because the ladys daughter had a priest come in and bless the house, when she saw her mother talking to the air. The mother tried to explain that it was a little ghost girl. The daughter said either she has the house blessed or she's sending her mother to an old peoples home. I told her have it blesssed. And I'd back off.

The funniest thing was that the priest said I was and evil girl that suffered a horrible death and was after revenge. I was laughing the whole time. That was the closest I ever got to learning about my death even though I'm pretty sure he was lying. Which is bad considering he's a priest and all.

"It's prom so I had a feeling you might need a place to stay. My daughter is already in bed so your okay hear. I made the spare room up for you." She says all smiles.

"Oh thank you so much! I'll leave early and clean up after myself. I promise. I wouldn't have come but this guy kept talking to me trying to get me to stay in the spare room he rented for me. He freaked me out so I ran." I said all in one breath which is pointless cause I don't really need to breath but it's a habit.
