Mysteries of the World *Ghost Adventures*(Zak Bagan X Reader)

Believe it or not

It's a complicated world when you look at romance. About 100 or so years ago people started being born with these stupid marks that supposedly match their soulmate. People still date others but they know by the mark that they aren't meant to last. Well I'm Y/n L/n and at the moment I haven't met my soulmate but I have no hope of meeting him because I'm happy with the guy I've been dating for the last year. We made a deal if we don't meet our soulmates by the age of 22 we'd get married anyways matching mark or not. Well, we're 18 now so four more years. If I actually had any sign that I had a soulmate I might not have made the deal but really all my school has met their soulmate. I wish it was that easy for me I just want someone my age maybe a little older. Some of the kids in my school found theirs at age 16 but their partner is in their 40's like no thanks. I've never believed that someone only ever had one soulmate because that sucks if they lived on the end of the world, but it's how it is anymore. Hell, some places forbid you from marrying anyone other than your "match".
Schools got out for summer like two hours ago and Max came over and we were hanging out when he saw on the tv a chick that shared his mark and only a year younger than him, she's advertising something for the new school year. Max is my long term boyfriend. Why couldn't he have not seen that? After he saw it he got so excited, the reason is that we graduate this year and he has always believed in the mark. We only made the deal because we were rebellious and he wanted to have a thing in place In case he didn't get to find his "match".
"Y/n......Y/n my match is on tv."
"I saw that Max I'm so happy for you." I put on my fake happy face and watched as he walked out of my room to go find his "match". And now I'm alone
"Y/n sweetie is Max okay he just peeled out of here like he saw a ghost."
"Yeah," I pointed at the screen, "he saw his match."
"oh, he did I'm so happy for him."
"Yeah me too." I put on a fake smile.
"Well after graduation I heard that that group you like are coming to do an old building in town maybe you'll get to meet them."
"Really omg really?" I started jumping up and down I've wanted to meet them since forever. I've always wondered if I'd ever get to go to Zak's Haunted Museum. I've always wondered if one of them was my match, like everyone, well even if one of them was I wouldn't know. The reason being that my mark is on my shoulder where you can't really see it. The rumor is that if your match has it in the same spot then you'll be happy for life and it'll be like you knew each other like since birth. Also like I said earlier I want a guy no more than three years older than me.
*Graduation*
Walking down the aisle and to the stand felt right but also all these emotions hit me. All these memories. All the people that had made friends with me and who always told me I'd meet my person I just have to wait. Hell one even said that my guy would be famous. The only thing is most famous people are taken or really old. I was known as a nerd at school and a geek sometimes. I didn't really mind it kept the popular away because most of them I had blackmail on so they stayed away I was only bullied by the new transfers and I always stood up for the bullied kids which normally got me bullied more, but someone has to keep the others safe.
"Max Neal Keith." Everyone applauded as Max claimed his diploma.
"Y/n M/n B/n" everyone applauded and I was the last one called. We all left and max and his parents came and ate with mine.
"So I have some news." Max's mom said all happy.
"Oh, Mary what is it." Mom answered
"Max has met his match and they have been getting to know each other. I think they might be getting married after she graduates."
"I'm so happy for you Max." Mom and I said in unison.
"So Y/n have you met your match yet honey?"
"No, but I'm hoping I will soon. If not within the week I'm going for a quick vacation in Las Vegas because theses a museum I want to see and hopefully I met him there."
"Oh, and who's going with you on the vacation?"
"I am it's only a three-day trip so I took four days off work to go with her." Mom said to know it was originally Max and I but he canceled for his match.
"Hey if you don't mind could I come and bring Brady?" Max asked looking me in the eyes.
I almost started choking on my water "yeah sure but you'll have to buy the plane tickets." I said through coughs.
"Sweet when is it that you're going again?"
"The last week of June."
"I'll get the tickets." I nodded after a while we finished eating and parted ways. I got on my twitter to see that Zak and the crew had posted about the building, and talking about how they start the investigation tomorrow. I live around the block from there. I even worked for the owner there I was attacked there's when I was cleaning. I made the stupidest decision to comment on it and saying 'I worked there and came home with three long scratches on my back, be careful.' It was a party hot spot for the high schoolers. Tell the owners closed it down so that only people with a key could get inside. Nobody knew but I have a key I never told them because I didn't want to be the one who lost the key. After a while, my phone got a notification from Twitter that Aaron had commented on my comment. 'We are asking the people who have been attacked if they're willing to meet up and tell us about the attack.'
I was freaking out my only question is why he was the one to comment when it was Zak'a post. 'I'm sure any time just message me when.'
'Personal or on this post?'
'Personal' I was bored so I went on a walk it's something I normally always do I walked to the gas station and bought myself an energy drink. I got home and mom and I talked I told her about the post and she told me that she glad I'm actually talking about it and I asked I asked if she could send me the picture of the scratches I had on my back and she nodded and sent them. After a while, I set my alarm for five because why not try to look cute when meeting them. I went to bed and woke up to a call for the owner asking me to meet her there in like three hours because she couldn't find her keys. The only reason I still had the Keyes was that I asked her if I could keep them Incase I needed to get away for a little and clean. So she said yeah and I got to keep the set she made me. Only three people had keys her, her daughter, and me. I got up and dressed and told mom where I was going I went and got me a muffin and coffee from the gas station and headed to the house. I got there a little late and she came up to me and hugged me and we talked as we walked back to the house. The guys were there and my phone went off with a Twitter message. I opened it and looked up at Aaron. I walked past the guys and unlocked the house.
"So why does she have keys to the house?" Zak asked
"She used to clean the house and so I made her some keys she still does clean it. She just one day had some really bad scratches down her back." Carrie
"The scars are still there," I added
"Wait for your the girl on Twitter?" Aaron asked shocked. I walked up and shook his hand.
"Nice to finally meet you guys I'm a big fan." They talked to the owner for about an hour and then she left.
"Be save sweetie remember don't piss them off."
"Who the guys or the ghosts." I laughed and she joined in.
"You boys play nice with her she's had one of those ghosts follow her home."
"Wait, you didn't tell us that part."
"So?"
"We would have met you elsewhere." I laughed
"I'm not afraid of the ghosts." And I walked past them into the house went and stood in the kitchen. "This is the room I was cleaning when I got the scratches." That was went something hit me, but I refused to show it. "So anything else?"
"Can we see the scratches?" Zak asked
"Sure the scars or the pictures?"
"Both." I pulled out my phone and showed him the scratches. Then I pulled my shirts back up and showed him the scars being careful not to show my 'match mark' that I had covered up with makeup for the most part. "You can say no but would you be willing to stay in here alone with a spirit box and camera?"
"Sure." They handed me the box and told me how it worked. "Okay, how long you want me in here?"
"Well, however long you want but we're going to lock you in okay?"
"Sure." They left locking the door and I was a little scared. "Hello?" "Is anyone here?"
"Y.e.s"
"Who are you?"
"Devil, scratches?" Then it sounded like laughter behind me. Causing me to jump and them I felt a burning pain on my cheek and chest. I slowed my breathing and the pain slowly went away.
"Were you the one who scratched me?"
"No. Him." "Hide." It was a completely different voice.
"Hide from who?"
"Him." And I had been recording the spirit box in my hand when I flew to the other side of the room. After it flew I fallowed it with the camera and then put the camera on my face.
"Zak." I heard the door opening and I hadn't realized I was in the corner sitting on the ground.
"Y/n where's the spirit box." I pointed
"Why are you guys in here?"
"You called."
"I didn't call I really didn't call you guys in Zak."
"Okay, but how did the spirit box get over there?" He had bent down to check on me. He hand met mine and I felt flutters in my stomach.
"I'm not sure but before it flew out of my hand I heard hide and then I asked from who and it said him and then it flew" he nodded and then helped me out or the house. We went and sat at the nerve center. He was watching the camera footage and he looked at me around when I moved it to my face with the pain in my cheek and chest.
"It scratched your cheek?"
"Yeah and I felt a burning pain in my chest." He nodded and continued to watch it after a while he got to the spirit box flew, I was texting my mom when he saw it. Looking at me.
I didn't notice tell, "y/n will you come over here real quick?" I stood up and watched as something flew under my hand and then right through the spirit box throwing it, then shoving me into the corner.
"Zak I didn't tell it to push me, but I also don't remember moving to the corner." He nodded as Aaron and Billy came in almost out of breath.
Aaron looked at me "can we talk to Zak really quick alone."
"Yeah sure" I walked out and was sitting down on the curb. Thinking about the first time I watched Ghost Adventures.
*Aaron's POV*
We were in the house as Y/n and Zak were in the nerve center. When a voice came over the spirit box "she's mine give her back." It was pretty well static.
"Who's yours?" Billy asked. It had confused me and Billy.
"Y/n." It replied cause us to run the nerve center.
"Can we talk to Zak really quick alone?" I looked at Y/n.
"Yeah sure." And she walked out I looked at Zak.
"You have to watch this," I told him. We played the footage back to him and his eyes darted to the door
"Dude we have to tell her." We nodded and I went to find her. I walked around a little and couldn't find her.
"Guys I can't find her."
"Wait if it has enough to move the spirit box what if it's enough to get her back in the house," Billy said
"There are cases where the demon can use what you care about as a control of the mind." I said, "but guys we need to find her before anything happens." We all went into the house since it's a two-story house Zak went upstairs and Billy and I looked downstairs.
*Y/n's POV*
I was so deep in thoughts about the first time I watched the show and how I would have never seen it if Max hadn't shown it to me. I started thinking about texting Max but I had left my phone in the nerve center. So I started walking there but it seemed so far away from the curb. When it finally came into sight I went running but something was holding me back.
"Let me go I have to text Max." I started fighting the person.
"Y/n your phones in the nerve center."
"I know I'm hearing there it's right over there let me go."
"Y/n you're in the house."
"No, I'm outside."
"Y/n here let me walk you to the nerve center."
"I can find it it's right there can't you see it."
"Y/n you're hallucinating. You're one the second story of the house. Come on I'll help you get your phone. The center is locked anyways and I have the key."
"Then let me have them and I'll get it."
"No just come on."
"Who even are you."
"It's Zak, Zak Bagans we met earlier." I finally got free and went for it only to be caught again this time he dragged me down the stairs and outside I was trying to get out of his grip when he sat me down on the curb and was talking to air. Then I smelt some kind of smoke.
"Zak I smell smoke. Where are we?"
"We're in the nerve center."
I shot up in my bed. "Damnit What a dream."
Mom came in "honey you were screaming about something is everything okay?"
"Yeah I think so, I was dreaming about the house."
"Honey you don't have to go near it."
"I know but I have to."
