The House

Chapter 12

I look at a picture.... It was the girl... I guess when she was alive. I shake my head, I couldn't believe that this was her home and now people are going to durn it down.. I sit on the bed again.

She shows up "So, you found where I live.. We are in my room... This was my room.. Now... It's nothing..."

I jump a little for surprise "this was? I'm sorry.. Where's your mom and dad?"

"They have another kid... After I died... They mad a new kid... They named it after me... Alexis..."

I gasp "but... But.. That's my name!"

She shakes her head "yup, your parents where my parents..."

"That can't be..." I say as I can't make sense out of that.

"It is... They thought that they would never have one again... But they did... You..."

"So you guys use to live here?"

She nods "that's why they love it here and hate it here..."

"I'm so sorry..." I look down, sigh, and look back up "h-how did you die?"

"By a drunk driver... I was walking by the street... That cabin your friend Austin have... That was mine also... My alone time... Dad mad it for me..."

"Oh wow... I'm sorry"

"It's okay... But... I'm sorry for you.."

"Wh-why?"

"What's going to happen to you..."

"What's that?"

"....Kill..." She says as she vanishes out of thin air... Rick finally finds me...

"Hey, you okay?" He says sitting down next to me...

"Um... Yeah.." I say kinda forgetting what happen with Austin.

"You sure? What happen? Yo-your face... It's while, like you seen a ghost..." He says touching my face to see. And he was right... I just seen a ghost...

"Yeah I'm fine, okay..." I take his hand away.. "Let's just go back to the party.." I stand up. Rick stands up also. As we start to walk, Austin comes up to me and before he could say anything I walk faster away from him as Rick follows me.

I stand outside and sigh. "I thought he might have been the one.." I say softly under my breath.

"It's okay, you will one day" Rick says when he hears me, he smiles to make me feel better.

Austin comes up "Alexis wait!" He says running to me.

"I-I'm sorry.." He looks down in sham .

I sigh "I-it's okay.." I shrug like it wasn't a big deal.

"No, it's not, I hurt you, I'm sorry" he looks up at me as he means it. He hugs me, tight.

I hug him back.

Rick says "I'll let you guys talk.." He walks away as he goes to some friends for a minute.

"C-Can we still be friends?" He says as we release from the hug.

"Yeah" I nod and smile softly.

"Great..." He smiles back and we go back to Rick and he introduces himself. He apologizes for snapping at him and we all become friends... After all that the party was over and we durn the house down... I still have the picture... For my mom and dad... And for the first Alexis to see that we care about her... Everyone goes home and I go home.. I call for my mom and dad right away when I step in, they come downstairs.

"Yes hun?" Mom says when they get to the bottom.

"Please sit... I want to show you something..." I say walking to the couch and sit down getting the picture. They sit next to me seeing the folded paper. They get a little worried.

"What's that?" Dad says pointing to the picture..

"The first Alexis..." I open up and they see them and her, shocked... Mom starts to cry softly.

"Where did you find that?" Dad says as they both we're things that.

"I went to a party.. They party in the house, then durn it..." I say looking down sad that I had to say that. "Something happen and I when to a room... I seen this picture and... And I seen her.." I say admitting that I see her. "She said that she was the first Alexis and that she died by a drunk driver.." I look at both of them as they are shocked and thinking that I'm kidding.

"You are joking?! Don't joke about that!" Mom says yelling at me. I look at in a way that I'm not joking.

"Your not joking..." She says covering he mouth.

I shake my head leaving out about the 'kill' part. They hug me then get a frame the picture putting it on a mental that we all pass everyday. I smile softly to mom and dad as they start to cry In a happy/sad way staring at the picture. I leave them alone and go to my room. When I close my door she appears again.

"Thank you..." She says by my bed.

"For what?" I ask standing by my door.

"Keeping the picture, giving it to them... Making them happy..."

"Your welcome.." I smile softly.

"Now the neckless... Please give it back to my body... It's the only way to keep you alive?"

"What do you mean?"

"The darkness inside me is growing in madness... For them and you... If you don't... It will kill all of you... I don't want that... I can't control it..." She looks down as she shows the darkness within...

"Hurry.." She says In a evil way then disappears again... I remember where the house was... The house that the party durn down... I mush go.. Now.. I run downstairs...

"I have to go.. I will be back tomorrow... I love you..." I say as it maybe the last time I say to them, I hug them then leave before they say anything. I call Rick telling I need a ride to the house again... He comes to pick me up and there we go....

.....To the death house....
