The Haunting

Chapter 19: Proud

Well, you finally figured out why the house was so evil....so what now ? Michael said walking up closer to me.

He leaned in a little, as if he was going to...I don't know..kiss me ?

So I started to lean in too.

But then I heard a strange sound.

"Wait what is that noise ?" I said, looking around the room.

Bang !! Bang !!

"POLICE !!! OPEN UP !!" Someone yelled.

Finally they busted the door down and game running in with guns and other weapons.

Out of fear, me and Michael quickly put our hands up.

"MERIDA !!! WHERE ARE YOU ?!!"

"Mom ?" I said.

My mother pushed the policemen out of the way and came rushing to me.

"Mom !" I said.

She hugged me really tight, and had tears pouring out of her eyes.

"Oh...honey I thought I'd never see you again !" She said.

"What happened to you ? Are you alright ?"

"Your head, it's bleeding,....and you have scraps on your arms...and-"

Before she could continued, I interrupted her statement.

"Mom, don't worry, I'm fine. Trust me."

"Excuse me, ma'am, I think you need
to come see this."  The police officer said using his flashlight to see the crime scene better.

"What it is it ?" Mom said walking over there.

"This dust, looks unfamiliar to me, Merida would you like to tell me what happened ?"

Mom turned and looked at me, while I explained what had  happened.

"Well, that dust is from a dog I killed......a demon dog..."

"I thought you killed that dog after it attacked me ?" Michael said.

"So did I, but it wasn't dead, until now."

"Was their anything else out of the ordinary here ? Other than the demon dog ?" The police man said with his hands on his hips.

"Actually their was, a devil really,....he was a demon and he was-"

"Lemme guess, capturing souls ?"

"No, he was-......wait, how did you know that ?" I said, frowning a bit.

"Because I'm not a police officer....."

He tore his fake mustache off and took off his hat.

"Mr. Conrad ?!" I said, surprisingly.

"Shhhhh ! The other policemen will hear you."

"What're you doing here ? How'd did you know-..."

"The day you were in my office, what did you see ?"

"Potions and voodoo-like things." I responded.

"You saw what ?" Michael said with a perplexed look on his face.

"That's what Mr. Conrad had in his office behind the library book-shelf."

"Indeed. But did you know I'm physic as well ?" He said.

"No."

"Thank your lucky stars Merida. Now, we have to make up a lie to those police gentlemen over there." Mr. Conrad said pointing at the other policemen.

"Why not just tell them the truth ?"

"Because, you tell them that you killed a devil and a demon dog, and also let
Souls free to heaven, while letting another soul put my soul back into my body, then they'll put YOU into a mental institution." Michael said.

"Exactly Michael. We shall not let anyone know about this hm ?" Mr. Conrad said with his hand on my shoulder.

"Yeah, your right."

After a short while me, Michael, Mr. Conrad and my mother told the policemen a lie.

We told them a killer captured us and tried to do sick things to our bodies and etc.

Lucky for us, they believe the fib we told and it was over before we knew it.

When the policemen left in their squad cars, we all left out, with our hearts fill with joy.
You may be thinking
"How can anyone be happy when they seem the unbelievable and dealt with the supernatural Behavior of others ?"

It's quite simple really, we're all at peace and so is the souls.

Lesson learned: Just because others can not see the things that you see, does not mean they are not there....
