It was then that everyone including Athena had decided it was Skye so at twenty-twenty (military time) just as the book had instructed, they shoved Skye into the dark bathroom. They had removed the light bulb so she would have to do it. She was shaking as she peered into the mirror, hearing her friends chanting into the door. She knew there was only one way out of the bathroom, but she didn't want this ember of despair in her life, she didn't need a ghost to be after her, so she sat there for a long time, just staring into the mirror which continued to stare back  at her. She longed for her friends to let her out, tears began to fill her eyes as she finally began to say with a quivering lip “twenty-twenty, twenty-twenty” her friends inhaled, banging on the door yelling “say it again, one more time”. The tears began to pour as she inhaled deeply saying “twenty-twenty” she banged on the door as it burst open and she ran out into the kitchen, falling into the arms of her friend Abby, shocked, nobody knew what she had seen to scare her so. She began to mudder a simply phrase “C-covid 19 ghost, fire , fire, fire”.
