David's PoV -

     I can feel Karmo and Devin's souls connect to mine. I've never really done this before but my ghostly instincts tell me what to do. I concentrate on my past, I don't like going there but it's nice to be able to trust Karmo and Devin.

     My life and death starts to flash past, I keep concentrating, taking Devin's and Karmo's souls with me. Then I stop, I made it.

     This place acts as a void so Karmo and I can see. Our souls are unseen and unheard. In a way it's nice being back here, home, it's 1806 in rural Amaya. I can see my old house, not much but big enough for my mom, dad, me, and my 2 older sisters. The sun is about to come up but our little farm is already alive with activity. I'm 12 now but my birthday's tomorrow. I know this day well, it's the day it happens.

     I want to look around awhile first, I want to reminisce the happy memories before we get to the bad. I motion for Devin and Karmo to follow me. Horses and cows surround us in their fences. I can hear the chicken's and rooster's calls from their coop behind the house. The barn stands old but strong a ways down the hill from here. I feel transported back to the good times, I wish I could go back to life here. Wake up early, eat breakfast, gather eggs, annoy my sisters. I walk through the door, literally. Inside mom makes breakfast, the sisters are setting the table, I pass mom whatever spice she needs, then a dread falls over me. Father. He sits at the table, entitled and intimidating, demanding breakfast to "Hurry up, I have work to get to."

     Karmo senses my fear and gently pulls me close to him, it's comforting. We watch my family, mom passes the living me a large plate of eggs and bacon to give father. I remember I hated that job. I hurry over to my father and put the plate in front of him then I hurry away before he can say or do anything.

      I help mom set the rest of the table and soon we're all eating. I sit next to mom, I miss her. Even as a ghost I haven't saw her since that day. I didn't know that would be the last time I ever saw her. My sisters sit across from mom and me with father at the head of the table. The sisters for once don't bicker, everyone is silent while they eat. It's an unspoken rule, no talking while you're eating. I miss my sisters too. I haven't saw them since that morning either. They don't look much like me, they have dark brown hair and a dark tan completion like my father. Mom's hair is black, her skin is a bit more fair but I'm blond and practically glowing white. My eyes are blue unlike my family's brown eyes, I guess I don't have to worry about that one anymore. I'm short for my age while the rest of my family is tall. Much to my father's disappointment. Mom always told me I looked like her mother but I never knew my grandma.

     When breakfast is over mom immediately starts to clean up. The sisters go help. Fathers stands and drafts me to help. As I watch myself walk away with my father I feel grief and regret grip my heart. I'm going to die, I should have told my mom and sisters that I loved them before I left. Before I follow myself I run up to my mom and hug her around the waist, she doesn't notice. I run over to my sisters and hug them too but they don't react either. I walk away to follow with a heavy heart. Devin and Karmo follow me, letting me lead the way. I feel them each grab my hands as I walk. A small tear falls down my face.

     Father hands me a bucket and tells me to go milk the cows, I obey. We didn't have many cows, just four. I finish one cow and start on the second but I look up. I know where I'm looking but I follow my eyes anyway. I'm staring at the barn or rather the boy next to it. Ben, my heart flutters even now, he's my best friend and pretty much my neighbor. Ben motions me over. Then I glance over to where father is, he's busy, not paying attention. I make a fateful decision and forget the cows. I hurry over to Ben. Karmo, Devin, and I quickly follow.
