Tuesday, June 4

Abby finally let me out of the attic. It felt so good being free. She said her sister was trying to get rid of the box, I said we had to get rid of her. Something in Abby clicked at that point, something evil. She agreed and gave me her soul. We agreed to kill one more time, but save Emily for last.

Wednesday, June 5

We killed again. Their mom this time. She didn't even scream when I appeared. Emily had heard the loud bang and went into the room to check it out, just as we planned. She confronted Abby and stole the decoy box, just like we planned. Emily tried to burn the box , just like we planned. She ran from us, just like we planned. Our words were her moves. We had her in our grasp, and she was frozen. Paralyzed from fear.

"Abby," she said, "this isn't you. You can stop this," she pleaded with her long gone sister.

"She's too far gone, you can't save her. No one can. And now, it's your turn. Join us Emily, join us! We can live happily together forever. We'll never die!" I said. She tried to run, but was stopped by none other than her own sister. I had given Abby some of my power, even thought that meant me losing mine. She lifted Emily up into the air, spinning her so fast, she might've flown off if she wasn't in Abbys grip.

"Ok Abby, that's enough", I said. She didn't listen. Emily spun faster and faster until I heard a snap.
