LIFE WE LIVE (DISCONTINUED)

Chapter 7

"My husband is a sketch artist. He works for the Las Vegas Police Dept. He'll be flying here in the morning." Amy says as they walk her to the door. "I'll describe to him what I saw and he'll do a sketch of it. And I'll be back in touch with you in a day or two."

"Thank you so much, Mrs. Allen." Tim smiles.

"You're welcome and I hope I've answered some of your questions for you." She smiles as she rubs him on the arm.

Aaron leaves to carry Amy back to her hotel. Zak talks to the others about what Amy had seen while waiting for his friend to return.

"Well, do you think it's him?" Zak asks.

"Absolutely." Tim nods.

"She did say that he was wearing a hat with a brim. Chris always wore a cowboy hat." Adam adds.

"Plus, she mentioned his heart. Chris died of a heart attack." Chance says.

"Not to mention that she said that he hasn't been dead long. Chris is the only one that has recently died in this house." Avi says.

"Is there any way that she could fake any of this? Maybe she did research before she came here." Austin says.

"We've worked with Amy before. She has amazing abilities. She's definitely on the level." Zak assures them.

When Aaron returns, he walks in carrying a box.

"Now, for the surprise, I had mentioned." Zak smiles. "Can we all have a seat in the living room?"

"Of course." Chance answers and they make their way into the living room to sit down.

"I'll have to tell off on you here, Tim." Zak chuckles. "Chance, Tim called me and told me what he and Adam had experienced. He wanted to know where he might find some really cheap equipment like what we use. They wanted to try and communicate with Chris."

Chance smirks as he looks down at his cousin. Tim avoided looking up at him.

"Unfortunately, the equipment we use isn't cheap. BUT. Our friend, Bill Chappel, is always coming up with new devices for us to use. Devices that replace a lot of our older stuff. Stuff that is no longer needed." Zak smiles as Aaron hands Tim the box. "I hope these will help you talk to your husband."

Tim quickly opens the box and looks inside.

"Oh, my God." Tim whispers as he looks at Zak with a shocked look on his face.

"Zak, as much as I want Tim to be able to talk to Chris, we can't afford this." Chance says as he and the others peek inside the box. "This stuff is expensive."

"Wow, a voice recorder." Adam says as he picks it up from the box.

"It's a gift. Remember, we had the pleasure of meeting Chris. He was a great guy and he was madly in love with his husband. We believe that love doesn't stop after death." Aaron says.

"Chris is still just as much in love with Tim now as he was before his passing. He wants to communicate with Tim just as bad as Tim wants to communicate with him." Zak smiles.

"So you're giving this to me?" Tim asks as he looks up with a shock expression.

"Yep." Zak says as he reaches into the box. "In here we have the Thermal Imager, the Ovulus and of course the voice recorder that Adam is holding."

"You know how all these work, right?" Aaron asks.

"Yeah, you showed me when you were here last time." Tim nods, a huge smile on his face. "Thank you. Thank you so much." He reaches up and hugs Zak.

The Ghost Adventures crew helped the guys straighten up the rooms, rehung the pictures and put everything back the way they were before heading out for their investigation.

"Are you mad at me, Chance?" Tim asks as he stares into the box that sat in his lap.

"Of course not, Timmy." Chance says as he squats down next to Tim's chair. "I would have done the same thing if I were in your shoes."

"I was gonna tell you. I didn't think they would actually show up. And I definitely wasn't expecting them to give me this stuff." Tim says.

"Can we go try them out?" Adam asks with excitement in his eyes.

"I would think the thermal imager would work better in the dark." Avi says.

"But we could still use the voice recorder and that other thing." Austin says. "Right?"

"Can we?" Tim grins as he looks up at Chance.

"Why are you asking me?" Chance laughs. 

"Let's do this." Tim smiles as he turns his chair around and heads to the bedroom.

"It's always cold in here." Austin shivers as he sits down on the bed.

"That's because Chris is here." Adam says as he also takes a seat on the bed.

"Okay, everyone needs to be really quiet." Chance says as he sits down next to Austin. Avi sits down next to Adam. 

** a/n: I am putting in ( ) what they hear when they review the recording.

"Chris? As you can probably see, we now have a way that you can talk to us. I know you may not have much energy right now but if you could just say 'Hi' it would mean so much to me." Tim says as he holds the record in his hand.  (Hi, Love)

After a few seconds, Tim looks around at the others and nods. A silent way to tell them that someone else could say something.

"Are you here with us now?" Chance asks.  (Yes)

"Are you able to show yourself to us?" Austin asks after waiting a few seconds.  (Soon)

"My hand is getting really cold right now." Tim says softly.

"Chris, are you touching Tim?" Avi asks. (Yes)

"I feel your presence really strong. Can you make a noise for us or use our energy to move something in the room?" Adam asks as his eyes scan the room.  (Try)

Tim closes his eyes and listens. He tilts his head at what he thinks is a sound near his chair.

"Did y'all hear that?" Tim asks.

"Mhmm." Chance nods. "That was a footstep."

"Sounded like boots." Austin adds.

"Thank you, Sweetheart." Tim smiles. "We heard you."

"Chris, we also have a thermal imager. You know how it works. We'll try it out tonight." Adam says.

"Uh, guys? I'm not sure but I could almost swear that picture frame on the dresser just moved a little." Austin says as the others turn and look.

"Did you just move that frame? Did I not have it set right?" Tim asks with a smile.  (Yes and No) Tim suddenly shivers. "I just got really, really cold."

"I see a white mist around you, Tim." Adam says.  (It's me)

"Are you hugging Tim?" Avi asks.  (Yes)
