My Hero, Zak Bagans

Chapter 2

   My family left at around 10 o'clock am. I had to be at the airport today at noon to catch my flight. Since I'm nowhere near a lisence, my mom asked my neighbor Julie to drive me. She kindly agreed and told me to knock on her door at 11:30 am. So now I'm just walking up and down my house and hoping I will get a chance to talk to Aunt Rosa before I leave. Now I wonder, just how exactly did Aunt Rosa die?Instead of waking her, I looked online to find out any elderly women between 60-85 who died in there house from 1945-2012. No luck. Damn. 

   I am so bored, I was tempted many times to see what was it the box Clayton gave me. Then again I didn't miss them yet, it was only 10:47 in the morning. I got tired of circling the house and decided it wouldn't be too bad to wake up Aunt Rosa. I jogged up the stairs and I heard my phone go off.

   "Hello?" There was no answer, "hello?" Still nothing. I stayed on the the line for about 30 seconds, then I hung up and headed to the attic. The attic wasn't a scary place. It didn't have cobwebs and shadows, it was actually transformed into a little playroom. When I say playroom I mean like video games, T.V.' s, laptops, and one twin size bed.

   The stairs creeked as I slowly made my way to the attic. My path was lit by candlelight because I don't like using a flashlight when I' m talking to Aunt Rosa. I feel it contaminates the conversation. When I got to the attic I unplugged anything that would interfer with the conversation. I sat down on the bed and started talking.

   "Aunt Rosa? Are you awake? I need to talk to you," I waited for about a minute before I started getting goosebumps. I shivered as I began to hear the floorboards creak. A small smile grew on my face because the only reason the floorboards creak is when Aunt Rosa is in my presence. Then, I saw a black mist right in front of me, start to form into a body. It became clearer to me that this figure was wearing a light blue (and out of date) dress that stopped halfway down its calf. It had long sleeves and ruffles at the end with a few pearl white buttons to hide the wrist. Because of the dress I already knew it was female, and she wore a white apron that was covered in purple, pink, and green flowers. Her old worn -out brown slippers fit her see through feet perfectly and her thin gray hair was pulled tightly in a bun so it sat nice and snug on the back of her head. Her beautiful pale white face was only wrinkled around her eyes where her crows feet stood.

   I was in awe everytime I saw this loving women stand, or float, in front of me.

   "Yes child?" The women said with a hushed voice and a smile on her face.

   "Aunt Rosa," I smiled back at her, " I'm going away for awhile."

   "I know that sweetheart, and I wish you the best of luck on your trip. You deserve it," She kept the same tone of voice the entire time, "and tell those 'men' that if anyone of them lets anything happen to you, I will haunt them the rest of their life," her voice got very serious, yet I knew from the twinkle in her sea-green eyes, that she was joking. I got up and held out my hand. She very slowly rised hers and connected it with mine.

   "I love you,"I said as I picked the candle back up and blew it out. When I looked up, Aunt Rosa was gone.

          - on the plane-

    When I boarded the plane I had a total of 3 luggage bags and the mysterious box Clayton gave me. I handed the women my plane ticket, which was mailed a coupled days eariler, and she escorted me to first-class. I put Clayton's box up above me because I made a fit when someone tried to put it with my other stuff. I looked around and expected to see all sorts of famous people but all I saw was a man sitting on the right side of the plane. I looked at my ticket and saw my seat. Right in front of him. I sat down and the pilot came on the intercome.

   "Fasten your seat belts Ladies and Gentlemen. We're going to Kenntucky!" His voice was so childish it made me laugh, but then he got serious, "This trip will take around 10-12 hours. So enjoy yourselves and have a great flight!"

   10-12 hours of non stop flying. Wow, I was so mind- blown that I didn't realize we were in the air until I came back into reality. I was texting mom all about what I was doing and how I was going to make sure I was polite and tell the Ghost Adventures Crew thank you for selecting me. Thank you? I was going to do more than that. When I first get off this plane and I see them waiting there, like they said they would, I'm probably going to faint first and then give all of them the biggest hug I can.

   It was about 1:30 when I started getting tried. I was yawning every minute and it was very annoying so I decided to go to sleep.

   "Excuse me, sir," I turned around and looked at the guy sitting behind me. He was dressed in alot of leather and had a bit of a stomache on him ( I don't like calling people fat). He looked at me through his sunglasses and I was almost too scared to talk to him, but I did. "Would you mind waking me up when we get to Kenntucky?" He nodded and I turn back around. I now it may have only been a couple of hours since I had gotten my phone, but I have already downloaded over 230 songs. I started texting Clayton until I fell asleep.

So tired.

Are you on the plane yet?

Yes. I've been on for 2 hours or so. Are you guys at the campsite yet?

Yep. Just arrived around 1ish

Still remember 14?

 Yep. 14. The age of my little sister.

I'm not 14 yet. Remeber? I turn 14 on the 10th.

Oh right. The day/night you go on the lockdown.

Well, I have to go. i'm afraid I might fall asleep on ya.

Ok. everyone says bye and they love you.

I didn't respond to that because I had already fallen asleep and I had a dream. Or a nightmare because it was weird.

I was in the car with my family and we were all singing random songs. As usual, Clayton was video taping me and Michael was crying. We were on the highway and mom had fallen asleep so my step-dad was driving. All of the sudden a young womem in jet black hair and a long silk purple dress, walked out onto the highway and made a 'V' with her hands. My step-dad wasn't watching and he started to swerv all around the intersection, causing a tractor trailor to tip over and crush all of us. The only weird part about it was that I wasn't in the car. When I opened my eyes I was looking at the accident. I looked around and saw the women again, she made a 'V', then vanished. I could feel my heart pounding 100 times its normal speed. Then, I fell,dead.

I awoke with a start and a massive hand on my shoulder, shaking me.

"Miss, this is your stop," I looked up and saw the biker-looking man starring down at me. My heart still pounded, but I was alive. I got up and collected my luggage. When I exited the plane, there stood three guys. One with black hair and huge muscules, one with slick brown hair, and one with a camera.

IT WAS THEM........ZAK, NICK, and AARON!!!!!! I walked off the platform and adjusted Clayton's box. I slowly made my way to them, all smiling at me. When I got up close enough to shake their hands, what did I do? Exactly what I said I would do. I fainted.
