It was a dark and cold night in London England.  The London sky was full of mist, blocking out the dim light of the full moon.  But darker still was the events about to take  place in a brick apartment building at the corner of  Copenhagen and York Way. 

.
Liam, Niall, and Louis were enjoying a game of Mario Kart in their  apartment.  It was a nice apartment with a couch in the living room and a large tv they were playing on.  The floor was strewn with empty soda cans and dirty laundry.  They were just about to finish a race when suddenly the door to their flat came  flying open. 
.

"Hey hey hey!"

.
It was Harry.  He was walking like he was slightly inebriated, and he had two strange women in his arms.

.
"Meet my two  new friends, their names  are Bavkah  and Kaneshe!  They're wild and crazy and they're down to party!"

.
Liam Niall and Louis looked on in horror.  These two  women were certainly not the first Harry had ever taken into the apartment, but there was something different about them.  Something about them put everyone on edge... everyone except for Harry that is.

.
"Um... who are these people?" Niall was rubbing his jaw with what looked like an equal mix of fear and  confusion.
.

"Just some sweet babes I found in a graveyard", said Harry.

.
"In a graveyard?" said Louis.

.
"At night?" said Niall.

.
"What could go wrong?" said Liam.
.

The girls ended  up joining the boys together and they all started playing video games together.  It wasn't too long though before Kaneshe spoke up, in a strange randomly Russian accent.
.

"Dis game is boring."

.
"Yes" agreed Bavkah.  "In the motherland we play games much more interesting than this."

.
"Really?" asked Louis.  The other boys  rolled their eyes.
.

"Yes.  Much more interesting than this" said Bavkah
.

"Yes, in our country we  play for blood" said Kaneshe.
.

The boys looked uncomfortable. 
.

"For blood" Niall was passing confused glances at the other boys.  His character on the game was driving into a tree but he didn't seem to notice.
.

"Have you heard of the magic of the Wa Wu board?" said Bavkah.  The room seemed to darken as the words came out of her mouth.
.

"Wa wu board?"  Louis said, mostly to himself.
.

"Yes, my great grandmother was a Vegan.  She showed us the power of the Wa Wu." said Bavkah.
.

"Yes", said Kaneshe, "True power".
.

The boys looked  on disturbed except for Harry.  He seemed slightly intrigued.  "I told  you they were crazy" he said through a strange  smile.
.

The girls pulled out a dirty board with what appeared to be cobwebs and  blood stains on it.  At just this moment lightening flashed outside, making the apartment burst with light for  a  moment.
.

"We must prepare the board before  we can begin" said Bavkah.
.

They pulled out the Wa Wu board and started preparations.  Kaneshe had them turn off the lights and light candles all around the room.  There were dice and cards, and stones, and what appeared to be voodoo dolls. 
.

"Alright, we begin" said Kaneshe.  She started waving her arms rhymically and strangely.  She started to go faster and faster when suddenly...

.
"AAAAAOOOOOHHHHH!!!!"  Bavkah started yelling and moaning and groaning.  Louise was looking around uncomfortably at the other guys.  Niall secretly peed his pants a little but didn't tell anyone, and Harry just had a dumb smile plastered to his face.
.

"DONE" screamed Kaneshe.  Suddenly Bavkah stopped moaning.
.

"I have seen it".  Said Kaneshe, her eyes wide and crazy.  "I  have seen our death! The ghost horse, it haunts my dreams, a neigh with strange foreign cries!"

.
Lightening blasted outside and Niall let off another spill of pee in his pants as he fell out of his chair. 

.
"It comes!" screamed Kaneshe.

.
At terrible gut-wrenching sound started to emanate from the walls.  It was the most horrifying thing the four boys had ever heard in their lives.  It was like a mix of a chalk board being scratched, a new born with a tooth ache, and a walrus stumped by a riddle, all at once, repeating and echoing all  around the room.
.

And then, busting a hole in the roof, it came.  First it's hooves, then it's terrible face. 
.

A ghost horse appeared. 

.
It's mane as white as snow, it's eyes hollow and dead.  Steam rolled out of it's nostrils and it's every breath seemed to sap just the tiniest bit of life out of you.  It was coming closer.  It descended.

.
Bavkah and Kaneshe opened their arms as if to greet it.  They were both smiling wildly.

.
"No!" screamed Louis.  "I'm not going like this!"  He grabbed a pair of salad servers that had been on the ground and started stabbing the Wa Wu board. 
.

Everytime he hit it, the ghost horse seemed to wince in pain swaying this way and that.
.

"No!" hissed Bavkah and Kaneshe, they tried to take the board from Louis, but they were too late.  Louis broke the Wa Wu board in half with the salad shears.  Smoke ascended out of it's destroyed bits.
.

Then out of no where a portal appeared.  it was like a big shimmering oval shaped door.  Through it, you could see more dogs than you have  ever seen before in your life.  The ghost horse  started being sucked  toward the portal.  It was  snuffing and huffing and fighting but to no avail.  It got sucked into the portal and then the portal closed, disappearing just as quickly as it had appeared. 
.

"NO!!!!" screamed Kaneshe, with a scream that would turn even the bravest heart to putty.  "NNNOOOOOOO!!!!" (Niall peed just a tiny bit more).

.
Bavkah and Kaneshe grabbed two  brooms and started to fly away.

.
"You haven't seen the last of us!" said Bavkah
.

"This isn't over!" said Kaneshe, and they flew out of the hole in the roof the ghost horse had left on their brooms.
.

"What the crap?" Said Liam

.
"Uhhhhh" said Louis
.

Niall looked  to see if anyone was looking and snuck off to the bathroom.
.

"Omg, they are the hottest girls I've ever seen in my life" said Harry.
.

And that was the last they would ever see of Bavkah and Kaneshe.... Or so  they thought.
