Hey Sorry I haven't uploaded in while but I tried to give you a longish chapter and The Switch will be up soon! Pic of doll

Jadeyn’s POV

We were just about to leave when in the dust on the entry room floor started to move. Again.

Wait

The ghost told us.

I need to watch you to make sure that you are trying to find my husband

We all agreed.

I need an object that I can take control of such as a stuffie

“I have a doll in my bag.” Stacey said then looked around and smiled sheepishly.

“I can’t sleep without it.”

That will do

Stacey ran to go get her doll then a few seconds later came back with the ugliest, scariest doll I had ever seen.

“ What’s wrong with it?” Felicity asked, “It’s so ugly.”

“Jeez, “ Stacey said, “thanks guys.”

“Ya we should thank her. Now we can leave.” Jackie said.

“Thank goodness.” I muttered then looked up again and saw the doll, which Stacey had placed on the ground starting to float of the ground and the eyes start to glow a bright green.

“What the hell is happening?” I asked.

“I think Julia is possessing it.” Jackie said in awe.

Then all of a sudden it dropped to the floor with eyes still a bright green but they weren’t glowing anymore.

“Well that,” Felicity said “Was frickin weird.”

“Ya,” I agreed, “It was.”

“Well lets go find a possibly dead husband to bring back to a haunted to house while being watched by a doll,” Jackie said, “Our lives are normal.”

“Wait,” I said, “Are we going to sleep here or not?”

“Uh,” Stacey looked around, “ I guess so.”

We all shuffled into the living room, laid out or sleeping bags and snuggled in. After about fifteen minutes Jackie said something.

“I can’t fall asleep.”

“Me either.” I said which was true. I had been rolling around trying to find a comfortable position but my mind was still racing.

“We,” Felicity said, “ Should at least try.”

All of us murmured a agreement and I fell into a fitful sleep.

I woke startled with images of my dream the night before, Green eyes, Shrieking and then crashing into darkness.

I sat up and started to rub my head trying to get the images out of my mind to find that my hair was a mess. All of my other friends were still asleep. I stood up and reached to grab my phone. No service. But at least I could still check the time. 8:30am. Ugh! That was way to early especially since we went to bed at 4:00am last night.

I changed into a pair of clean clothes and started to looked around the room. It looked like nothing had changed since we had arrived but so much had changed when my eyes fell upon the doll I shuddered. It was disgusting just sitting there staring at me. I sat back down on my sleeping bag, pulled out my iPod and started to play Techno Kitten Adventures. (That is the best game ever!)

CRASH

I turned around to see that I had knocked over a pile of books with my backpack.

I blushed and smiled sheepishly. I started to bend down to pick them up but then a middle-aged woman who worked at the library came over to us and started too pick them up for me. I mumbled a thank you and walked over to my giggling friends.

“If I didn’t have this freaking backpack on then it wouldn’t be such a big deal. Why do I have to wear this any way’s?”

“Because,” Felicity said. “ You lost the bet and now you have to wear it for the day.”

I sighed.  Earlier in the day we had a bet to see who had to wear the backpack with the doll in it all day. Turns out I am the slowest runner.

“Let’s just go find a computer and Google this guy.” Jackie said sounding exasperated.

“Whoa,” Stacey said. “ Calm down little miss inpatient.”

All of us chuckled but Jackie who just sat there looking like a unhappy child.

We all sat down at the crappy old computers in the library.

“Wait,” I said. “What’s his name?”

“I don’t know.” Stacey said.

Then all of a sudden in my head a heard a name, it came as a whisper but in little girls voice Jeremiah Wilson.

“Jeremiah Wilson.” We all said simultaneously. We looked at each other then back at our computers to find that his name was already typed in.

“That.” I said.

“Was.” Felis said.                  

“So.” Stacey said.

“Weird.” Jackie said.

We all stared at each other for a minute until Jackie broke the silence.

“Let’s see if he’s still alive.” We all hit Enter and all that popped up was “ German cop saves the day”

All of us clicked on the same page read the article and looked back at one another. Jeremiah tried to set off a bomb in Grand Central Station.
