Haunting Love

Chapter 2

Light shined down on me. It burned. It felt as if my flesh was tearing apart inside. I dropped to the ground with a frown on my face. The light was gone. I went to pick up my phone and was not very surprised when my hand went right through it. Yeah, my little secret well, it's kind of a big secret..... I'm dead. To be more exact, a ghost. Do you want to know the story? Remember shhhh.... Your life may depend on it.

            "Macey you're driving soooo slow." My sister, Suzy said obnoxiously

            "I heard you the first FIFTY times ok I get it!" I replied with fury in my eyes

            "You know I'm already a great driver and I'm only one year older."

            "Shut up! I'm only fifteen big difference from sixteen in my eyes."

            "Fine.... But I just wanted to ask you, when are you going to get that tooth of yours fixed."

            "I'm calling mom to come pick you up I can't deal with you right now, next time you need someone to drive you home because you got drunk at a party call one of your jerk friends."

            "NO! You better not we both agreed it would be better not to tell her" She screamed as I took out my cell.

            "Hi mom I just wanted to let you know I'm driving Suzy home becau........"

            "Shut up !" Suzy grabbed my cell.

            "NO!.......Crap!"

            While fighting over my phone with my lovely drunk sister I lost control of the wheel. I stopped the car fast. The car completely rolled over. Now going down a hill I knew I had no chance. Screams from my sister rung in my ear. I tasted blood in my mouth. My heart raced fast. I busted out in tears. My stomach twisted inside. The car finally rolled into the water. It's over I thought to myself. I gently floated to the bottom of the lake where I would die.

            I felt light on my eye lids. Could this be true am I alive? Well if I was I felt terrible. I examined my surroundings. Sitting on a huge stone I felt my stomach start burning and screamed. Confused, I looked at myself. I was not looking my best. Rips in my flesh, burses all over my knees, singed hair and gashes in my arms. I was scared. Where should I go? What should I do?I thought to myself.

            "Macey?" A voice in the distance said

            "Hello!?" I said still scared to death

            "Mace...." The voice came closer

            "Hello..." My voice faded

            An image off in the distance started skipping over to me. She looked quite happy for someone in this place. It was dark, foggy and filled with bones. It looked quite a lot like I pictured Hell. As the image came closer I saw a girl. It looked as if she was shining.

            "Hi! I've been waiting for you sweetie. Follow me!" The girl said with a huge grin.

            "Wait who are you?" I replied

            "You're angel silly."

            "Angel... In a place like this?"

            "Well, we travel a lot. You see every mouth we get assigned a victim of death and are responsible for taking them to the court where all the decisions are made."

            "What decisions?"

            "You know wether to go to heaven or Hell, become a vampire or ghost. All that stuff."

            "VAMPIRE! GHOST! What are you talking about! I must be dreaming?"

            "Sorry but no sweetie."

            "Stop calling me that! You're just trying to take me to hell huh! You hate me! Where's My family! I want to go home!"

            I fell to the ground crying more then I have in all my life combined... no joke.

            "It's ok I know you're upset so was I. Life may be hard but Death is harder." She laughed

            "Yeah, What will *cough* happen to me?"

            "I don't know we have to see. Come on the court is just around the graveyard."

            We walked around the graveyard to come to a huge building as tall as TWO of the empire state buildings! It had almost a billion rooms I guessed. We walked inside and it was literally like a forest for the deadly. We both sat on bench and waited...

            "Don't say anything to the judge unless you are asked a question, It could make you're sentence a lot worse."

            "Wait so now this is like a jail!?"

            "Shhh.... He's here."

            "Macey huh? Nice girl, take my hand. We have a lot to discuss in court. Follow me." The judge said staring at me with his hypnotizing eyes.
