Angel of Light (A Zak Bagans Story)

Chapter 104: Let Her Go

Authors Note: Hey guys! Yes, I'm updating sooner than I have been lately, yay!

Two things, first, I've created a manip of the "dead Zak" that I've had Alicia see a few times now. It's not the best thing ever made, but it's just to give you a rough idea. I'm going to go back and add it to the chapters I've written, however, so that you guys don't have to go scrolling back looking for it, I'll stick it into this chapter for you. I hope it looks okay, lol.

Second, on Monday (most likely at least) I have to put my iPad in for repair. My volume up button is stuck and doesn't respond. Obviously not a major thing, but an annoyance nonetheless. So, that means I won't be able to write while it's away. *crying* Lol. Hopefully it won't take to long.

With those two things out of the way, on to the update! Oh, and thank you for all the votes!

Chapter 104: Let Her Go

Meanwhile...

Zak's Point of View

As we all continued to watch the show, I began to worry about Alicia, wondering what was taking her so long. I once again found myself not wanting to be the over-protective boyfriend, but something just felt off to me. Maybe someone else would speak up about her absence soon.

I looked down at my phone and scrolled over a few of the latest tweets fans had sent. I retweeted some of them, and replied to other ones who were asking questions. One tweet in particular caught my eye:

Cindy @GACFabGurl666
@zak_bagans where did @aliciawilde go? Missing her tweets! #GhostAdventures #AliciaWilde

I noticed I was also receiving other similar tweets, and I smiled to myself that fans seemed to be taking a liking to Alicia rather quickly – not that I had an doubts that they wouldn't.

Just as I finished typing up a response and sent it, Cheryl caught my attention.

"Zak? I think something's up with Gracie..." Cheryl said, in a rather weary tone, causing me to worry instantly.

I looked where Cheryl was looking, and saw Gracie standing at the top of the basement stairs. Her ears and her tail were up - as if on high alert - and she was snarling. She never snarled. Sure, she'd do some playful growling and the usual barking, but I have never seen here like this.

"Grace? What's up?" I questioned, getting up from my seat and walked the short distance to the basement stairs. Normally, Gracie would look at me whenever I said her name, but she continued staring down the basement stairs. She was also now alternating between growling and snarling.

"What's up bro?" Aaron questioned, from his spot on the sofa.

"I don't know...I've never seen her act like this..." I replied, starting to worry something was wrong with Gracie. But then my thoughts drifted back to Alicia, who was still in the basement. "I'm going down to take a look," I added, careful maneuvering around Gracie and started to head down the stairs.

"I'll come with you bro," Aaron said, before he stood up and walked over toward the stairs.

Gracie kept her position at the top of the stairs, and as I neared the bottom, she let out some occasional whimpers – as if she was afraid for me.

Something definitely must be happening down here...I thought, my worry for Alicia increasing.

~*~*~*~*~*~

As I reached the bottom of the stairs and entered the game room, I started to feel a very intense - and very dark - energy all around me.

"Something's down here..." I said, glancing back at Aaron as he appeared behind me.
