There was a knock on the door.

"Hello?" Taka said. "who is it?"

The door creaked open and Tanika peeked in.

"Hi!" She said. "I was bored so I decided to talk to you guys! If you don't mind that is..."

"No no no it's fine" I said.

"Yeh it's fine!" Said taka.

"Cool! Ummm... I got my chair!" She swung the door wide open and she was in fact holing a golden chair in her left hand.

"Wow... Your chair,is uhh, beautiful!" I said, and I'm not lying! It looked solid gold!

She laughed. "You can customize your furniture you know! You just get a price of paper, draw or explain what you want and put it in that box at the back of the door!"

It was true! An A4 boxy thing was attached to the back of the door.

"Well that's not really what I came in here to talk to you about..." She continued. "You see, ever since I've been transformed I've had so much hate towards the too door ghosts. They are really noisy at night time and whenever they are sleeping they snore real loud!"

"Why are they still here then? Wouldn't they get thrown out?" I asked.

"Oh that's what I was gonna ask you, you see vegimite kills them and I was gonna sneak into the kitchen where dinners made and stir some in tonight's soup, is that okay with you?"

We both nodded.

"Why are you asking us if its okay?" Taka asked.

"Oh, because I want to be your friends and have you not thinking I'm a crazy person who goes around killing people, that's why." She said, on the brink of tears.

For the next 5 minutes taka and I were saying things to her like "It's fine!", "It's okay!", "Don't worry about it!" and "Take a chill pill!",

but after those 5 minutes she exploded.

"No it is not okay!!! I know they're only annoying ghosts who we all hate but still!!! This is murder we're talking about!"

Well that is NOT what we had expected to happen.

"Sorry," taka said.

"Yeh, sorry." I started "We were just-"

" I know, I know. I'm just not used to attention. Now, where do we start? We need to make a plan!"

***

After about half an hour we had a plan all made up. Tanika had some Vegemite sachets in her room from her old trick or treat bag. I was going to go into the kitchen to 'taste' some of the soup, in other words, line up the bowl underneath the fruit shoot (this thing that keeps the fruit bowl full), taka is going to drop some of the Vegemite into the soup from the shoot and Tanika is going to keep the chef occupied.

We were all going to do this just after lunch.

Lol, a 'fruit shoot'. Imagine how bruised the fruit would get!

Sorry about this excuse for a chapter, the next one is lots longer, i'm writing it right now.

Anyway, please check out my other book, 'Wanna die? Then read the book'. That book and this one are the two main books that I've been updating lately.
