Ghostly Lies

Part 1, Episode 6: Lip Syncing

Jay POV

"We know but if you want to be free from Caleb you have to say the three words and our names. That is what Willie said." I looked at them and tried to speak but my voice was gone. Only air came out. "That's not good.." said Reggie, Luke looked at him mad, "You THINK?!"

There was a knock on the door and a person spoke, "5 minutes Mr. Greene.." I gulped, "We are in so much trouble..if he can't speak or sing then that's it, Caleb has us." Said Luke and Reggie snapped his fingers, "I just might have an idea..what if you sing for Jay." I tilted my head.

"you know lip syncing..you just need the microphone and lyrics and all he has to do is move his mouth..that will give him time to rest his voice to say the words to be lifted.." I started to like this plan, "How many songs do you have prepared?" I held the number 3 on my fingers.

"You just have to sing 2 more, but to sound like him." Reggie handed Luke a piece of gum, "this is what he used to trick Alex by being Jane."

I nodded. He placed it in his mouth and chewed it, he spoke and sounded just like me. Reggie smiled as I went to go get the lyrics. I then handed it to them.

"Innocent & He's A Player..look amazing!" I shooed them to go get in position as I walked out on stage. People applauded and shouted, "Ready for round 2 my ghouls?"

More screaming came as I turned off my microphone and Luke's turned on. "Back for more, Jayden Greene." Slowest claps started as I breathed out and waited for Luke to sing.

He's A Player

No, I don't even know my name
It doesn't even matter,
He had me in his experimental game
Not just for human nature,
It's not what, I do
He does the entertaining to thy people
Not how they should find out that I am just as innocent
My head gets so fogged up
That I must obey

I obey to Caleb and I hate it
The smell of his evilness
Hasn't been able to stop me from singing
I hope he doesn't mind what I do
Though it's so wrong
It feels so right
Don't mean anything, right?
I obey to Caleb and I hate it

Now those boys known as The Phantoms
Fell into a so magical trap
I was the one with the
Cruel mind, evil thinking, and I was so
kissing up to their butts

Now it's hard to resist to
stop singing this song
Too good to deny it
Ain't no big deal, it's innocent just like them..
And to let them know that I was the player

Jay POV

I felt bad for I had done to fake lose my voice and have Caleb goons being able to find Luke and Reggie but now they were in trouble. The curtains closed as Caleb had his arm around my shoulder.

"Ooh I love your smart little plan.." I could hear the boys grunting their way up forward, "You lied to us! You made me sing that song!"

Luke was not happy as Reggie looked at me with sadness. "You brainwashed him didn't you?", "How can you tell?"

Reggie POV

"You lied to us! You made me sing that song!" Luke was not happy as I looked at Caleb and Jay with sadness.

"You brainwashed him didn't you?", "How can you tell?" I could tell because of a few major hints. One his eye color was different, that was the major difference.

The picture Julie showed us of him and his mom, he had brown eyes but now he has gray. "He will never say the words and your name, he is my singer slave for eternity. But if you want him back, then I would need to have all of you instead.."

Our eyes widen, "Not a chance Caleb.." said Luke as he spit out the gum.

Alex POV

When we got to the museum, Willie was on the ground spinning the wheels of his skateboard. I walked up to him, "Willie?" I said as he looked at me, "This is all my fault. You have a friend in danger whose life has been taken over by the devil. There's nothing we can do.."

I hugged him, "There has to be a way, we have to be Positive. When you helped me and the guys out by telling us what we need to hear, Julie was the one..that said it..wait that's it.." Willie and the girls looked at me, "What's it?"

He asked, "We have to say the three words and his name and not him saying them and our name..it's reverse psychology..", "since when did you become that smart.." I shrugged as the girls smiled, "Now let's go save Jay.."

I said as we all teleported away and entered at the wrong time. The hotel club was empty, then I heard a bass and electric guitar playing.

The curtains opened and revealed Reggie and Luke all dressed up just like before. No sightings of Caleb or Jay. "Guys! Get off the stage!" Julie yelled as they continued to play but the same tune. "Something off.."
