I haven't been back to the human world since... well you know. I was actually pretty excited. I was just about to leave, but Greg came up behind me and pulled on my sleeve. I turned around and he was standing there kinda sad. With an attempted smile he said:

"I'm gonna miss you," I just smiled back, but he looked worried. Greg's not the type to act like this, he's usually a go-with-the-flow kind of guy. I knew something was up.

"Greg, what's going on?" I said the words slowly, hoping to get an honest answer. He sighed and looked up at me.

"It's... Things are different down there. People have become more aware of us. If they find out that your down there, they'll think that your there to hurt them." He chose his words carefully, and spoke them slowly. I just stood there in shock. I didn't know what to say.

"Well that shouldn't be a problem, if they can't see me, they won't know I'm there." I said with hope in my voice, but he didn't look any better.

"Well..." I cut him off before he could say any more.

"Look, I have to go. I'm going to miss you buddy." I said sincerely.

"You too", He said with a smile. I looked down upon the world I was about to enter. It looked beautiful and magical, but Greg warned me and I can't get caught up in the moment. I took a small step forward and without looking back I leaped into the human world.

My mission had just begun. I entered Northern Bay High School. Well now I can officially say that have been to both heaven and hell. I walked in and no one seemed to notice me. This will be easy I just have to find this Allie girl and get her to find a new soulmate. Doesn't sound so hard. I looked around trying to see if she was anywhere in sight. After stumbling upon many classrooms, I finally found the one she was standing in front of. I walked over to her and once I was behind her she froze. I was confused at first, but it didn't take me long to figure out what was happening. She knew I was there, I don't know how, but some how she knew I was there. She slowly turned around and looked right into my cold dead eyes.

"Hi?"Her jaw dropped to the floor and remained still. I haven't talked to a living person in such a long time, I was at a loss for words. She was pretty cute though, her light brown hair were curtains for her vibrant blue eyes. I could tell she was frightened, I didn't know what to that would reassure her that I had good intentions.

"W-who are...y-you?" She mumbled under her breath. I returned a warm, gentle smile with the words:

"I'm Ben. Ben Grouts"
