You could only imagine how much fear is running through my veins. I ran into the front room with her right behind me. I ran around the coach with her following me. I felt like I was playing duck,duck,goose. She stopped on one side of the coach, and I quickly stopped on the other side.

"Why are you even helping Lane?" She sneered. "Your setting yourself up for death. How about you give us the damn necklace, and this will all be over!"

I narrowed my eyes as she slowly walked around, which i did the same. There is no way she was getting close to me. To hell with that.

"I rather die than give this necklace." I spat.

"Well that can be arranged." She said running towards me. I took off and ran into the kitchen playing another round of duck,duck, kill.

"Why do you even want the necklace!" I yelled.

She stopped dead in her tracks. "You have no idea what that necklace means! It hold something greater than you can imagine!" She said.

"And that's exactly why I'm not giving it to you!" I yelled, but she stood still. "You killed Lacey didn't you? Your the one Zahra made kill Lacey!"

She looked at me, and this time her eyes weren't pure black. They were a bright shade of blue. Right when we made eye contact, her body seemed to change. She started to look human. She started to cry a bit.

"I didn't mean to kill her!" She yelled. "She made me do it! She made me! She threatened me! She was going to kill my family!"

My eyes softened, and I let out a shaky breath.

She stared down at her feet, and the front door started to open.

Her head snapped up to me. "I have to go!" She said. "Don't let Zahra get the necklace! And Shay?"

"Y-yes?" I say.

"I'm home!" My mother yelled.

"In the kitchen!" I yelled. I looked back at the now human girl.

"I'm sorry Shay, and T-tell Lacey I'm sorry too. Also Shay, thank you." She said before disappearing.

"Thank me for what?" I whispered as if someone, or something was going to answer.

My mother walked into the kitchen, and gave me a big smile. She looked tired, and warn out. I gave her a smile, as she opened the fridge. She got a water bottle, and took a drink.

She was about to say something, but I cut her off.

"Look I know your tired. Go to bed mom." I say as she gave a sympathetic smile. She walked over to be and gave me a hug, which I gladly returned.

"Goodnight honey." She said letting go. I gave her a smile, and she kissed my cheek. "Love you."

"Love you too." I said as she headed up stares. I let out a breath that I didn't know I was holding it. I walked the fridge, and opened it.

After deciding I didn't want nothing to eat, I closed the fridge. I sighed as I leaned on the fridge. Soon my back was pressed up against the fridge, and I was sliding down the fridge.

What the hell happened tonight?

****

My eyes opened slowly to be greater by three faces staring at me.

"Go away." I grumbled out pulling my blanket over my face.

Kaden, Liam, and Lane all were in my room. What did they want?! I'm to sleepy to find out though.

Suddenly the covers were being ripped of me. "What was that for?" I hissed.

"Get up." Lane says.

"No!" I said putting a pillow over my face. "what time is it, and more importantly, why are you here?"

"It's 12pm." Liam said. "And we have some problems."

I sighed, and threw the pillow at then. I sat up, and looked around at them.

"What's the problem?" I asked. Lane, and the boys sat on my bed. Making themselves comfortable. Liam laid down on the foot of the bed, Lane sat next to me with our backs pressed against the wall, and his arm around me, and Kaden sat down against the wall by Liam.

Amazing, my bed can hold a girl and four boys.

"We're all being haunted." Liam said with no emotion playing on his face.

"All of us?" I asked.

"Yeah, even Callie." Kaden said.

"Where is Callie?" I asked. I haven't got to talk to my bestfriend for awhile. Now, I feel like a bad friend. Which I kind of am.

"She's at her house asleep." Liam said.

"So what's happening to all of you?" I asked.

"Liam's is seeing things that aren't there, Kaden and Callie are having nightmares." Lane said. "And I'm, ime hearing voices."

Lane was lying. His voice sounded funny, and when he said he could hear voices his voice changed.

I may or may not be overreacting, but Lanes not wanting to tell me something. I looked at Lane, and gave him a questioning look. He avoided my look, and stared at the wall.

I let out a sigh.

"What the hell are we going to do?" I said.

"Give them the necklace." Liam said.

"How do you know about that?" I asked.

"The voices." He let out a sigh.

"Oh." I muttered out. "I'm not giving up the necklace."

"I figured." Liam said just then his phone started to ring. Speaking of which...Where is my phone?

"Hello?" He answered. Just then he shot up off the bed. "We'll be right there!"

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"Callie, someone decided to visit her." He said.

"Zahra.." A voice whispered.
