Save Me... (Mystery Skulls: Ghost, Fanfic)

(Chapter 13!)

[1 Week after death]

Vivi stood beside Lewis, Mystery at their feet. At the front of the room sat a casket containing Arthur's lifeless body. The rest of the room was filled with relatives mourning the death of the young man. Vivi held a jar close to her chest, an orange glow shone out, Inside was the half of Arthur's soul. She refused to leave the soul alone. The three sat in silence tears running down each of their faces. Vivi shoved her face into Lewis' side sobbing, he reached an arm around her comfortingly.

[2 Months after death]

The jar was placed in a safe place on the fireplace mantle in the living room. The three had finally been able to get back into normal life, they would still look at the soul and get upset but nothing too bad. Yet the soul had regrown just a bit, nothing noticeable to the naked eye yet though. 

[5 Months after death]

The crew got back into ghost hunting, no longer letting the death effect them more than a frown and a gaze at the jar. Vivi and Lewis started happily dating and they had all seemed to notice the soul was different now almost three-fourths of the way repaired instead of half. "What could it mean?" Vivi questioned staring at the orange soul. Lewis sat on the couch behind her petting Mystery. "I don't know, I've never heard of just half a soul before, there are many things It could mean. The most probable thing is the soul can't pass on until it's full. All the ghosts we've met have had a full soul just had somehow been bound to earth by vengeance or other means." Lewis responded also in the thought of what could happen. Vivi frowned at the thought, she sat down beside Lewis frowning. "So that's it, then all of him will just be gone?" She asked tilting her head. "Possibly," he looked down at her "yet there are many possible outcomes, don't worry about that now sweetie. If so we will still have memories and it will be a good thing for his soul to pass," he reassured. 

[11 Months after death]

Vivi and Lewis knew they loved each other, so a month prior Lewis proposed and Vivi happily said yes. They now stood in a lovely church surrounded by family. Vivi wore a gorgeous white fluffy gown and Lewis a tuxedo with an orange rose. They didn't hear much of what the priest said as they stared into each other's eyes smiling. Once the priest asked that fateful question they were both prepared with big yes's. They kissed and had a wonderful reception. At this point, they only glanced at the soul every week or so. Yet they both noticed it had almost completely regenerated. The uncertainty of what could happen next left them curious and a bit worried.
