"What?! You want to burn my daughter's grave and you think i will let you do that?" Moon's father was really angry.

"Sir, please try to understand. We really need to put an end to it. Tjis doll has taken the lives of many families. And now its gonna use my brother to exchange souls. How can you let that happen?! Think about your daughter and your family. You know how people will feel."

It was hard to convince him. But he understood well, better than anyone. He said that he will first take a last look at her grave.

Jenny sat on her bed looking at a picture of she and her brother when they were little. Jimmy had stolen her chocolate and she was crying. Tears dropped from her eyes as she thought about him. What was he doing right now? Did he eat or not? If he is hurt somewhere? Is he safe or not?- all these thoughts kept coming to her mind. Jack came to her and said beside her.

"It will be fine. He will be fine. We will get him back harmless."

"I hope what you are saying turns out to be true. But...."

"No buts. Just gather courage. The ritual is dangerous. We need to make sure we dont die and not let Jimmy die. We can do it." Jenny nodded, trying hard to gather courage.

She kept reading the rules again and again. What they have to do was recite some sayings while spreading a special type of water which grandma gave them around the grave. The timing was important. Before, the spirit unleashes itself, they need to throw the doll in and burn it up at the right time. A second late and game over.

It was about 2:30 am in the morning when they reached the graveyard. Everything was very dark. So dark that Jenny and Jack couldn't properly see each other. There were some strange noises. And they were just afraid of their own footsteps as they were stepping on dead leaves making a cunch-cunch noise.

They turned on the torch. The atmosphere became more scarier. They could only see the part where light fell. That was the only light in the whole graveyard at that time

They searched for Moon's grave in the deep darkness. They soon found the gravestone in which was written, "Moon Hearton. 2002-2017."

"This is it," Jenny said. She checked her watch, about 10 minutes left until 3:00 am, more specifically, until their life-death game.

After 10 minutes, they started the ritual.

"Mar prontos de lis har Maltido dut ko har maltis...." Jenny uttered as Jimmy kept pouring the holy water around the grave with Misty in front of the gravestone. All of a sudden, fierce wind started to blow and Jenny almost lost the paper from her grip. Dead leaves and dust flew around everywhere as if a storm was about to come. They couldn't keep their eyes open but still tried to continue.

Jack was a very skinny guy. It was very hard for him to hold himself in this strong wind.

Jenny kept muttering the sayings and that's when all of a sudden a branch broke out from a tree and fell on Jack's shoulder. He screamed in pain. Jenny stopped and looked at him for a few seconds. She was very scared and wanted to go and help him.

"Don't.....stop...." he somehow managed to say. Jenny started again. Jack was seriously injured and somehow managed to get up and pour the last drops of water around the grave.

Suddenly, a smoke type of thing started to come out of Misty. It went up and up and turned into the figure of a girl. Fierce wind blew all around and branches started to break up from all trees. Some trees also broke down and was taken away by the wind. Jenny held on to a big and strong tree. In this strong wind, they could clearly hear shrill screams of a girl. The scream was so loud, that it was enough to break a glass.
