Whats up? My name is Micahel but, most people call me Mike, dont worry sbout my last name it doesn't really matter.Also, I dont feel like anyone but close friends need to know anyway. So, your here to listen to my story cool, I guess. Basically, I'm dead at the moment but, not at the same time weird I know right. As far as I can gather its like a limbo state. Anyway, its not important im going to tell you how i ended up dead in the first place and it all started with a girl.
November 1,
At first she was a random girl I would see in the halls at school maybe three times at most every week. She's a 5'6 fair skinned girl with long, almost jet black hair.This all happened about half way throught first semester when we actually spooke for the first time but, it was not how I thought it would go.Danielle and some guy I didn't really recognize, or care about really, we're arguing and somehow they were doing it quietly but eventually tears started to form in her eyes and the guy walked away. I stood there like an idiot until she noticed me staring, " The hell are you looking at"? Why was she so mad with me, I hadn't even done anything. I was going to ask if she was okay but, stopped when her dark eyes fixed completely on me then she just walked past me wiping away her tears.

I came to school and wanted to ask if she was alright since I froze yesterday. My friend James, being the weirdo he is, noticed I was acting strange and asked, "Dude, the hell is wrong with you today"?, I casually brushed off his question and looked into his face, James was a 6'2, black guy with a skinny yet muscular physique. Lets just say in a fight im glad that he's on my side, even if its only for intimidation. I've known James since I was little and he was my best friend so he knew when something was up.He let it be after not getting an answer and I told him i'd meet up with him in lunch later and I went to find Danielle.Whenever I did see her she acted as if she didn't see or hear me practically all day. I walked into lunch and just sat at the end of a long table, the usual spot where me, James and a couple other guys sit. He walked in and looked at me but, didnt say anything, we just talked about sports and such until lunch was over and I didnt see Danielle for the rest of the day.

I finally gave up trying to get her to see me and went to confront her directly.Now that I think about it I may have been stalking her but, anyway i saw her talking to her friend at a locker.I walked over and she rolled her eyes clearly trying to act annoyed. " What do you want now, Mike" She said. "Im surprised you even know my name considering how much you've been ignoring me" her friend cut in, " Oh so this is the guy you've been hung up on!" Danielle looked flusted and I gave her an "oh really" look. " Look Danielle I only wanted to check on you and see if you were okay and thats all". Her friend looked at her wondering what I was talking about, her blue eyes boring into her menacingly.
One week later...
November 11
So it's been a week and she hasn't spoken to me nor have I made anymore attempts to get her attention. To my surprise, she found me in the hall, " Hey sorry about before Mike. It was totally uncool of me to act like that". "Its fine I was just checking on you after the whole thing last week yknow". She looked at me with a face that was a cross between annoyance and intrigue. " Do you just want to hang out after school, it'll be easier to explain all this without everyone listening". " Yeah hows the park on Corin St at 5"? she nodded and walked on with her day. Danielle was all that was on my mind,its weird and it really confused me. I went home and my mom was on the couch watching a drama show I didn't care much about.She looked in my direction and asked how my day went and, I told her fine. She got off the couch and walked towrd me and asked,"Why do you look so absent minded today"? I disregarded the question and asked if I could go out for a bit to hang out with James. She seemed to be angry with me dodging her question but finally said, "Don't be long its a school night". I walked up to my room and changed from my school outfit, took a shower and put on some black sweat pants with a grey shirt and black shoes then put on a jacket and headed out to meet her. I got to the park about fifteen minutes early and the park was designed for about 5-10 year olds. So a kid my size couldn't really do much here other than sit on the swings and wait. I kept thinking about that day I saw Danielle cry in te hall and my mind went through alot of different scenarios and I still couldn't imagine the guys face but, it didnt matter much so I just opened my phone and played games for a while longer, until I got bored with that and looked around at the park. There was one of those hut type things at the far end of the park where people are meant to eat. I began to climb this "hut" and sat on top of it. If i stood i could see the main street that lead to the shopping area a few minutes away. It started to get windy so I zipped my jacket and sat down to wait. And as I did she just sort of appeared on my left at the bottom of the struture, "What are you doing up there?". I looked down briefly and saw that she was wearing an out fit similar to mine except where my jacket had a spider on the left chest, hers had a rose and she was wearing leggings instead of sweat pants. "Are you gonna keep staring or are you going to answer my quesion?" I quickly realized i'd been staring and looked away as I answered, " Just enjoying the view, You comin'up?" She looked at me and said ," Fine". How she managed to get up here as quickly as she did I couldn't be sure but, it was impressive. As she reached the top she sat down a couple inches to my left, " So whats up?". SHe asked the question as if i had asked her to come here and not the other way around. "Im just watching the sky, its beautiful", I replied. Danielle looked at me in complete amazement, "Wow so your the sensitive type huh"? "If liking the sky means im sensitive then I guess I am", I said with a laugh. She laughed too and it was more of a soft yet, vibrant laugh. "So, you gonna explain why You wanted to hang out or do you want me to keep guessing"? She turned to me and sighed, "When you saw me with my ex-boyfriend he just said some really awful stuff and I didnt want to deal with it so I walked off and thats when you saw me". I pondered that a moment and finally spoke, "SO what did he say to you"? She didnt answer my question and simply changed the topic, "Did you say you were guesing as to why I asked you here"? She said. "Yeah I did, why is that weird"? SHe just stared at me as a smile started to cross her lips. After that something weird happened Time started to shift backward, we were still sitting on the hut but, it seemed as if she was waiting for an answer to some question I didnt know, "So are you gonna answer me or keep spacing out"? "What did you say again"? Danielle looked to be interested but thankfully not mad, "So you are like me". She said this as if I had any clue as to what she was talking about. "What do you mean I am like you, What are you"? She scrunched her nose and answered, " Well the closest answer to that is the name I gave myself whch is Time walker". Once again, I was completely confused and wanted to ask questions but she stopped me before I even spoke, " Dont ask questions just come back to my house and I'll explain". She didnt wait for a reply and climbed down the hut with stunning ease and I followed closely after to find out what had really happened.
