The Boat

I skip and giggle like a little girl as I splash into the small puddles that have been here since the boat has been sitting. I have been awaiting for something new to happen, maybe people, I love to scare people, but I try to avoid to also don't. I just scare them to get off my ship, but that isn't going to happen today. Earlier today I saw some of the people who clean here put up a sign that said 'Grand Opening', which I am pretty sure means that they are showing off my boat.

But that's okay, I know where all the best throwing rocks are.

Right now I am sitting in my old chair that now makes a squeak as I turn it. It makes me sad because it never used to.

Suddenly I hear a a loud bang of a door opening on the distance catching my attention. I get up from my rusty old chair and slowly walk towards the doors that are glued open.

"Yes, this will be a great place to hold it." A year man's voice echo in the distance.

"Never doubt me." A woman's voice echos with.

"Come on let's put cameras in some spots while we are waiting." The man says.

Cameras? I kinda don't want to be in a movie. I look down and remember that I am still in my Captain suit, at least I can still take pictures.

I walk towards where all the noise is happening and look around the corner to see a young woman and man lifting up a small camera in one of the corners.

Hmmmm. I'll just knock that over when they leave. And soon enough they do, carrying along another camera to a different room. I slowly and silently walk over to the camera and with one finger pish it over. The camera slightly tilts bit come back into place. I get a little frustrated and slap it. Yes slap it. And this time a small clap sounds through the air and in the distance you could hear someone asking did you hear that. This time I get angry and realize​ that I could push this over.

I calm my self before I look down at the leg stands. I sit their and think, wait! I can't push the leg stands which causes it to fall over..
And that's what I did, I kicked the leg stands which caused the camera to topple over and crash to the floor. I quickly run over to the other hallway and watch as they run in and I watch as horror starts to cover their faces.

"This kind of action during the day?" The make asks.

"Maybe it's not a ghost." The woman suggests.

Wrong, I am a ghost. Just a powerful one.

"Let's go." The male asks before they both get up and leave, leaving their broken equipment behind.

Great, thanks.

I walk back to my cabin and lay their on my bed for hours, until I heard something.

"Hello?" I hear a voice yell, kinda sounds like that man from earlier.

"Yea hi." I say but of course they can't hear me.

I sit up and pace out of my cabin only to realize that it is now dark.

Hmm. Must have sat their for too long doing absolutely nothing.

I follow the sound of footsteps before I meet with the man and woman from earlier and this time they have cameras attached to them.

"We know you are here. You knocked down our camera set earlier." The woman says and she sweeps the camera across the room.

I step out from the hallway and walk over to them. I save my hands in front of their eyes but I get no response.

Ah humans.

Next they pull out a device, a small device and holds it up in front of them.... basically through me.

I sigh and just step back waiting for them to do something.

"Captain Drake?" The male asks out.

They know me? Well of course but how do they know I am here?

"We know you are stuck here. Out on your ship. We are here to help." The woman explain out as the male sweeps the device in front of him.

"Help?" I ask with a short laugh.

After asking a couple questions that I barely answer just roll my eyes to, they pull the devices away and out them next to their ears.

"Woah, did yo hear that?" The male asks.

"It sounded like help." The female answers.

Help? Didn't I say that earlier?

I walk up closer to them and listen to their little device. Then I heard a small help, it was me. I heard my own voice.

I stumble backwards, astonished on how I sound. I turn around and run back to my cabin, I have to think of a way to get them out of here.

"I heard footsteps this way!" The male yells.

Oh God.

I dash into my cabin and then go to my wheel slightly turning it piece my piece.

"Holy moly. Are you getting Katy?" The male asks with a wide eyes face.

"Yea.." she whispers.

I finally gather enough strength to take one final turn on the wheel which makes a complete turn to the left.

"Drake! Is there something you want to tell us?!" The man asks.

"LEAVE, GET OFF MY BOAT." I yell out if anger.

Next thing we all know the boat starts to crumple with piece falling everywhere.

"Jack! We have to go!" Katy yells pulling him out of my cabin and down the hall. I look out my window and watch them jump out of my boat. I also watch as my boat turns to the left, and not being able to hold its self above the water anymore, crashes into the water on its side leaving myself sinking into the the warm ocean shore. All by myself; luckily no one will be able to come on anymore.
