       I started hearing noises in the middle of the night. Trash cans falling, windows breaking, cars crashing, gun shots, people screaming. I got so scared, I got up to look at my window to see what was going on, I got aprehensive. There was nothing going on, everything was calm, nobody was outside. I went back to bed hoping that it was just a night mare. When I woke up I was a little confused to wheather or not to tell my family what I heard. I guess I would just have to wait and see if one of them would mention it. When I went to the kitchen I heard that my sister was talikng about something. I felt anxious to hear what she was saying. I asked what she was talking about. " oh, hi sis, I was telling mom and dad about the field trip that were going to". I responded with "oh yeah". I was shocked, how was I the only one that heard those noises.

    Weeks passed and everynight at the same time it happened. I still didnt want to tell anybody because they might think that I am crazy and put me in a mental hospital. Then one day, out of nowhere I heard my door open. I woke up and nobody was there. I thought it was my sister but then something started moving in my closet. I went to go check and then I heard a long growling noise. I stared into its eyes. they were red and gold. It started to walk out the closet, I was so scared that I jumped back into my bed like a little girl. I wanted to call my mom and dad but I was scared that maybe it  was going to atack them and kill them. After I got on top of my bed I had finally seen its face and body. It was so white like milk and it had brown silky hair. I didn't move or say anything, not until it would say something to me first. 

     As soon as i blinked it was gone. I couln't beleieve it. I had finally figured out what it was. A ghost, of course. No wonder I never saw anybody in the street, and why nothing had moved. One thing that did bother me was why was it just haunting me. Why was it not haunting my family. Every single story that I had heard from movies, or from my friends, I have always heard that when a ghost is haunting you it haunts your family to.  Sometimes it does things to you. I had seen this show once where this family was getting haunted and a lady got hit with glass that came flying out of her cabinet. 

       I finally decided to tell my mother what was going on. She said that this was all her fault. Apperantly when she was my age, her and her friends played this board game.It had said that whoever did not follow the rules of the games would get haunted until married were it would pass on to your oldest child. I had asked her if she knew what could break the curse. Appearently you had to do some ritual. When the child turned 17 they would have to go to the highest mountain dance for them and let them in your body for one whole day. Luckily for me my seventeenth birthday was coming up. 

           That weekend when my birthday had passed I went up to mountain Kuskuchji. I started doing my dance and I saw my ghost come up to me. It finally started to talk, It started telling me all the rules that came with it going inside me. Once it was inside me I would have no control over my body. I could not die by it killing me, I could only die if it got into an accident. It couldnt make any big descicions for me, like marriege. I blacked out I knew that she was in my body, I could also see what she was doing. The first thing that she did was to go to ger parents grave. I started thinking to myself , maybe she died before they did and never really got to say goodbye.After she was done saying goodbye she got in my car and went to Food king. A fast food place that was right up my street. Im guessing that she had never had a hamburger, fries, a milkshake and apple pie becsue she was eating that like if it was her job. 

      She went to the mall and started to try on so many clothes, I guess that people back in her time didn't really know what fashion was because she was trying on the most ugliest clothes ever. Not only were they all ugly but they were creepy and it looked like something that my mom would wear. After she was done she went to the 6th floor and started to eat again. I wasn't judging, maybe she had a big appetite. Then I noticed something, every single time she finished going to a store she would go back upstairs and eat again. I don't know why but I had a bad feeling to what she was doing. Then I had finally got it, she was trying to kill me by eating to much. She knew that the ghost kings were not going to punish her because it is technically an accident. She knew that they knew that maybe she didn't know that eating to much every hour would kill you. 

      I tried so hard to get her to stop but the rules were clearly stated. I started to panic, then it just suddenly hit me. Ghost hate things that have to do with god and everything, so I decided to pray. " Dear, dear lord. please make this demon get out of me. please lift this curse from me and my family. Please forgive us for our mistakes, especially my mother for not taking responsibility for her actions". Suddenly I felt like the curse was lifting itself. My praying was working, it started to scream and tried to fight it. I was back to myself and she was standing right infront of me. " Why would you do this". " I know that you tried to kill me by stuffing me with hamburgers and fries". " You idiot, I had the most perfect plan". She exploded into a million pieces. In a way I felt bad, but then she did try kill me so bye-bye.
