When I finished washing the dishes, I sat  beside Fenix and turned on the TV. They were giving a stupid reality show so I changed the channel. A few minutes later, Fenix took the controller and turned of the TV.

"Let's talk" He said

"About what?"

"About that Angel guy, he has been following you lately, hasn't he?"

"Yeah"

"Does Holly know about the whole situation?"

"Well.. . No, I said I fell down to a glass table and hurt myself"

"And you didn't tell her the truth when he left?"

"He said that if I spoke about it, I would never see my family again."

I could tell Fenix was mad about the news and he took my phone and started texting my mother

it said something about me being sexually abused of by Angel.

I took the phone forcefully before he could send it.

"What are you doing?! Angel would kill her if she knew!." I said

"He won't because he will be dead before he even tries to."

Fenix stood from the couch and looked through the windows to see if anyone was watching. While he searched around, I stood up and went to see myself in the mirror. I had a scratch on my cheek from when angel abused of me.

"Hey." I said

"Yeah?"

"If you're a ghost, why can you touch me.. and how can I see you?"

He looked at me, but he did not say a word

"Can you answer my question?" I said

"I don't know why or how you can see me" He said as he stared into empty space.

"Well if I can see you, it means others can too.. right?"

"Not actually, everyone I pass by  can't see me, or hear me. Holly and Angel have never even looked at me, so I guess you are the only one."

He sat on a chair and took a big, blood-red book out of his backpack. He searched through the dusty pages until he found a page that was hand- written.

Soul Watcher

To a mortal who has the ability to see the spirits of the lost. The forbidden curse of 1764, the curse of a man, Alfraudé Dusckan. Accused of being a lunatic and a sub-cultural bieng. He was burned  into ashes and  his spirit was divided into 3.

Fenix closed the book and focused his eyes on me.

"You must be a Soul Watcher" he said

"what?"

"Yes, and there must be more of you"

He took his backpack and the books and walked out of the house.

"Hey! where are you going?" I said

Im gonna look for your brothers, your ACTUAL brothers.

And so, I followed him and we left to find my "brothers" I don't know what im doing. I do not know where im going. 

But here I go....
