The day is here.
It's finally here where grandma and I are filled with confident that this Unknown spirit will be stop from bothering us and stop using my brother spirit as his minion.
We prepared all the tools grandma said that we might need and head to the other house. The one across the bridge. When we were there, there were so many ghost wandering around throughout the house.
It's funny how we can't see what's really there in front of us.
Like I wonder, If ghost warn their people like we warn our people about ghost.
It's like two different world merge into one but just in an illusion form.
We went into my bedroom and went over the plan silently.
I then left and went outside while grandma summon the evil one.
I reached in my pocket to grabbed the spell that grandma wrote on it.
But wait!
The spell needs a ghost to recite it in order to work.
Why haven't grandma told me this?
And where will we find a ghost to help us defeat The Unknown?
Oh my god.
"Grandma gonna be the sacrifice!" I yelled quietly.
I watched into the window and the Unknown appeared. I tried to run inside but she locked the door.
All I did was cry and pray that somehow she will be fine.
He had her flying right through the house. I finally found a window and ran inside the house. I started saying the spell but why isn't it working?
Ummm, because I have to be a ghost?
"I have a plan Chrissy," she said.
With that, her last breath was taken from her.
This was my fault.
"Are you happy?" I yelled at the unknown.
"What do you want?"
"I want You, your soul and your blood!" A dark cold voice whispered in my ears.
I ran and hid at the side of the wall hoping he wouldn't find me.
But then something or should I say, someone amazed me. Grandma was next to me. I wanted to pee my pants but then I was so happy I get to see her again.
"I told you I had a plan chrissy. I'm not really dead. Right before we left the house, I drank an ancient root that allow the soul to leave the body for 30 minutes. So after we finish recite the spell, I shall be back into my body. I'm sorry I didn't tell you because I know you won't like the idea."she whispered to me.
"I got really frighten grandma," I said as I hugged her. Well tried to.
This time I ran out and called distrace the unknown then grandma came and held my hand.
I pulled the spell out and recite it.
"In the brightest day and darkest night,
I pray we take this evil into flight.
Vanquish its power back to hell,
Down goes the evil spirit back in its well"
We recited it 4 times but he wasn't going anywhere. He was laughing as we chanted about 10 whole minutes.
"And you think that's gonna stop me?" he growl.
When I watch, grandma was back in her body, standing next to me.
"My minions, come forward," he commanded.
All around us was flooding of ghost and supernatural creature.
He's good.
"Um, grandma? What's our plan now?" I aksed
"RUN!!!"she yelled.
The second she said that, we both dashed out of the house with full speed.
I didn't even stop when we were crossing the bridge. When I looked behind us, it was a crowd running after us. I passed grandma even.
We ran inside the house and locked the door. That's not gonna keep them out but this will.
We put fresh salt by every door and windows before, incase the plan didn't work out.
"They won't be able to get in until an hour or so," grandma said.
I was scared. I was panicking. It was night and the place got even scarier. We couldn't see them but we heard them.
"What are we gonna do?" I asked grandma.
"You need to embrace your full power and only you can destroy The Unknown." She blurted out.
I swear by the minute this woman getting crazier.
"Thats the only way left again Chrissy. If we don't stop this thing now, it's gonna destroy our lives. Your bother soul won't be at peace and the Unknown can destroy the world."
"Well let's look again in the book!"
"We've done that darling. It have nothing that can destroy that one evil. He's too strong." she said.
I heard the pain in grandma voice. She's right about it all. I can't let this happen when I know I have the potential. I need to destroy this. If I don't, no one will be at peace.
"We have one hour to train. Let's begin."
