The tale of Miyah Elise

Chapter 4:The ghost girl

"Oh and of course Mr.Greg too." The girl stood up and looked out the window. "It gets lonely when no one can see you."

"Are you...a ghost?" Miyah asked.

The girl turned around and smiled,"Yup." She skipped around the room and took a old box from a dusty dresser. "I died 5 years ago, me and my parents were moving down to the city but we couldn't take the piano." She went over to Miyah and handed her the photo of her smiling brightly and her parents behind her.

Her mom was like a older version of her, long blonde hair and shining green eyes. Her dad had short brown hair and wore glasses. "I played it one last time and that's when I heard a crash from downstairs I ran down and my mom was bleeding on the floor. When I rushed to find my dad he was fighting this strong guy from strangling him. His eyes darted to me and he told me to run but the men were coming inside. I ran as quietly as I could upstairs to hide but I tripped on a stair and they found me..." Miyah looked at her in shock. "I was shot but I managed to crawl up the stairs, I died looking up at the sky through the windows and the sun beaming on my grandmothers piano. Next thing I knew I woke up here and a voice told me to find a girl who's like nobody else. Your the only person who can see me, besides well Greg of course." She patted Mr.Greg on it's head.

"Me?"

She nodded, "My name is Kimberly Dorsey and you are the girl who's going to take me to heaven."

"Heaven? Wait huh?"

"I know it's alot to understand when your only 7 but I was only 10 when I died. I believe my parents are up in heaven and I need you to help me find them."

Miyah looked at Mr.Greg, "What do you think?" Kimberly giggled. Miyah looked up at her and made Mr.Greg nod his head, "We'll get you to your parents."

Kimberly smiled and jumped in rejoice and went to hug Miyah until she ended up fazing through her and hit the wall. "Ouch!" She rubbed her head, "Sorry I forgot I can only touch the things that were here before I did, I can't really leave the house but somehow were connected, I can reach through to you in your parents room but not much farther."

The father clock rung striking 3 rings. "Oh no 3:00 um Kimberly I need to go home."

She smiled, "Meet me tomorrow after school then we'll make a plan for me to reach heaven."

Miyah nodded and they shook hands,though once again they made no contact. "It's a deal" Miyah laughed.

Miyah ran outside and Kimberly waved by the doorway until she remembered something, "Wait Miyah before you go there's a man who watches me I call him Denis, he was here when I woke up taking care of me but never told me anything about why I was here. He said don't worry about heaven but I think he's keeping me here. Look out for him if he finds out your helping me who knows what he'll do." Kimberly called out. "Bye Greg bye Miyah!"

And with that goodbye she was out of sight as if she wasn't even there.

Miyah continued to run through the woods trying to find familiar routes to her home. She suddenly bumped into something big and fell to the floor. A giant man with a axe in his hand stood over her grunting and staring at her with a grouchy demeanor. Miyah jumped in fear and jumped to her feet. The man lowered his weapon and picked up Mr.Greg off the floor next to his feet and examined it. Miyah shook in fear of him, "Um...I'm sorry." She snatched Mr.Greg out his enlarged hands and ran off through the woods. "Thank you!" she called out.

Miyah, with her heart racing, ran til she seen houses. Tired and exhausted she looked back wondering if that was the guy Kimberly was talking about. She remembered the time and quickly ran and grabbed her bag out her hiding spot and darted straight for home.
