2024-10-29 19:42:56What could possibly come of all this? An officer with his blues flashing three underage kids walking home in the middle of the street obviously not coming home from the game since the roarous sounds of it echoed in the night’s air. Hopefully, we would have a chat and be on our way before we even realized we had stopped.
The officer was tall and muscular, we could not see his face. It was dark out and he was behind the blinding lights of his patrol car. All I could make out was a tall man, gun on the hip, and a slight shimmer from a badge over his heart. If he had a partner, they did not exit the vehicle. Lucky for us, the big game was happening, and the red and blue swirling lights did not draw any attention from nosey neighbors or scared little old ladies. Even the oldest of t

Jackson and I joined together to use our sibling's special ability to light up the night's sky as if the sun were at its peak, shining down on every living thing it could reach with its rays of heat. This was all fine and well, except for the fact that my parents had just turned the corner onto our road in the family station wagon. Soulless or not, this was going to take a fair amount of explaining. I knew they were not ready to handle the monumental truth that I was a ghost hunter and Jennifer, and Jackson were with me in an alliance called The Wall. The family station wagon screeched to a halt, sitting cattywampus in the middle of the road just fifteen feet from the three of us, the damaged police car, and the downed officer. In our house, we held a high regard for officers of the law, they performed a very brave duty for little pay but this particular officer was possessed by a

The best plan of action would be to wait until my parents went to bed, which should be soon considering they were just out at a hot long football game, then the three of us, Jackson, Jennifer, and I, would need to stick together and check the house room by room, inch by inch, in search of anything that may be demonic or a way for the demons to interact with our normal human lives. From what the demon that possessed Officer Michaels, it was apparent that some sort of adaptation was taking place to where the demons were able to protect themselves from some of our weaker powers. My mother was slowing down by the second as she hand washed the dishes from the late night dinner she put on for the officer in need. My father, well, he was dozing off on the couch holding the day's paper ever so slightly. It was sagging so much that it was basically a blanket for him if he were to remain on the couch for the rest of the night. Jennifer, Jackson, and I waited pa

The time had come, it was finally the time to begin our search. The office adjacent to my room was going to be our first test. I was going to heavily rely on my pendant and its reaction when we were searching. The pendant that Mrs. Tannell had given me had yet to fail to warn me of impending doom and I knew I could trust it in this situation. There was an urgency to this mission, but we had to be very methodical as to avoid any potential disasters. My parents had finally fully gone to bed now, the light that was glaring out from under their door from the television had gone dark and remained that way. The television was off, and I could hear my father already rhythmically snoring. If I did not know any better, I would like there was some sort of small engine machine running in there or a wild animal was loose. He snored terribly loud but since I did not share a bedroom with him, it was very comical to me. I grabbed the flashl

Accidentally waking my parents would result in quite the unfortunate circumstances, but waking them because we had to fight a hideously tall decrepit man demon that was waiting for us at the head of the stairs would be all the more unfortunate. This particular demon was exceptionally tall and wildly skinny. Basically, we were dealing with a skeleton that was wrapped in skin with an oversized head bobbing on top of theultra-fragileframe it rested on. The consequences of battling a demon in the middle of my house while my parents were asleep would result in a lot of explaining, possible trips to the psychiatric ward of our local hospital, and a certain separation of Jennifer and I. It was imperative that my p

With Jennifer down and hurting badly from the fiery eyes of the demon wolf and Jackson taking extreme damage to his torso to divert the flaming stare away from Jennifer, I felt I had no choice but to intervene in a big way and put this transforming demon down for good. If I squeezed Jackson’s hand hard enough, we would combine and send the mother of all attacks onto the demon blocking our passage down to the first floor. Jackson was resisting me, the more I pulled on him to get him out of the glare of the demon, the more he held his position and took, what appeared to be, irreparable damage to his body. I could literally look down at him and see his ribs turning to dust from the extreme heat generated by the demon’s burning stare. I knew he wanted to do something, something big to try to stand out from the rest of us as a key member of The Wall, but I was not about to stand id

The fear that was rushing throughout my core was something I had never felt in my entire life. Sure, I have been scared, but seeing my little brother disappear with the flattened demon wolf was stomach turning out right fear for what was about to come. He was not equipped mentally or physically for even a split second in the pits of hell, he would be eaten alive after he was torn limb from limb, suffering the entire time. Jennifer was by my side sobbing her eyes out while I was still trying to comprehend what in the world had just happened. She said, “Did that just fucking happen, Naomi? How did he just disappear like that? We have to get him; we have to save him. This is all my fault, if I had been able to keep my composure, he would never have stepped in front of the demon’s eyes a

Not waiting for Jennifer or I to get settled, Todd peeled off in his white windowless van full of paranormal detecting and studying equipment. We were heading towards Mrs. Tannell’s house to see what we could do to find Jackson and save him from whatever he was going through. My heart drummed rapidly in my chest as Jennifer clung to one of the many shelves as Todd expeditiously drove us to our English teacher’s house where there was a portal to hell located in the middle of her living room. He said, "Grab on to something back there kiddos, we have no time to waste and I do not want either of you getting hurt because I am driving like we are in the Indy 500. Get your thinking caps on too, we need all the ideas we can get." The drive, well, the distance was not a long way, but I will be damned if it did not feel like an eternity. The few

Just let it be on the record that this situation could not be more fucked up if I had planned it myself. All we wanted to do was find any source of demonic activity or travel somewhere in my home while my parents slept soundly in their bedroom. What ended up happening threw our lives into a whirlwind that I feared we would not be able to recover from. Seeking help from Mrs. Tannell resulted in finding her and Nurse Helen performing some sort of impromptu dissection on a man that we could not identify. The fact that Nurse Helen and Mrs. Tannell were up to nefarious activities when they thought they would not be disturbed threw my faith in The Wall alliance into a downward spiral that could very well destroy the entire soul of the alliance. To put the proverbial cherry on top, my childhood archrival, Sarah Macly, the little asshole that hit me with a fireball causing me to stumble in

Todd was back amongst the living, standing with Jennifer and Jackson, as all three of them stared at me with the fire of one thousand suns. I am certain that not one of them had any idea why I was motivated to trade my life for Todd’s but it was not their concern. The main concern now was to stay alive just long enough to eliminate Mrs. Tannell and destroy the portal to hell that resided in her living room. Through all of this, the killing, the death, the pain, the suffering, it had come to me out of the blue that Mrs. Tannell must be provoking these attacks, especially if she knew I had killed Sarah Macly, her lone granddaughter, she would have all the motivation in the world to make my life a living hell. The end was drawing near, not only for me, but for Mrs. Tannell as well. It was time to end this, once and for all. On

Todd, the backbone of our alliance, the mini one and the real one, was now lying on his back showing no signs of life at all. His eyes rested still and gray. They were wide open, as stoic as they had ever been in his entire life. His stomach stopped rising with life, he was not breathing at all now. Death had one hand around him, holding on for his dear life, waiting to take his soul away into the ether, never to be seen again. In your last moments, death has a way of making you look as peaceful and calm as you have ever been before. It is the darndest thing, being in the worst position of your life, your soul is floating away, and the lights are beginning to dim, you are dying but from the outside, you look as calm, cool, and collected as you have ever in the history of your breathing days. This generally applies to any and all deaths, except for the horrified ones. Those will make you sick to your stomach. Jesus Christ hims

Todd was in very severe pain, whatever was attacking him was clearly making sure this event was filled with pure pain and horrific suffering. With his pant leg ripped from its seam, Todd’s burn wound throbbed and pulsed with an alerting rhythm. His body was being manipulated by something, some sort of demon that we could not put our eyes on. This put the three of us at a severe disadvantage. It had become very obvious that we needed to act fast, but we had to act efficiently. Flying off the hinges would almost certainly result in a catastrophic failure, that was absolutely unacceptable. All we came here to do was secure demon Sarah where no one would think to find her and we ended up being attacked by an old demon woman, demon wolves, a huge mimicking demon, and I killed a man. This could not have gone any worse, except for some sort of death on our end. Now was not the time for reflection though, Todd needed us, and it was looking

Todd, with his leg wound, would have to wait just a bit longer while we investigated what we thought was the man I killed as he ran into the light. Obviously, if I killed him, he would not be able to make moaning noises or anything like that, so it was fairly easy to discern that the dead man had been turned into a demon and he would certainly be looking for some sweet, delicious revenge. I mean, who would be alright with getting killed out of the blue? Jennifer and Jackson had taken the lead as I made a fine attempt at catching up to them as we headed towards the corner of the abandoned K-Mart. The moaning was like a mating call, this was not the typical ‘I am in pain’ moan. It resonated incessantly, calling us to come and see what was happening. Judging by previous experience, I had no clue about what may be around the corner, all I knew was that we were walking towards danger, and we had to be ready. I said, “Slow down, guys. Le

I could not hold my curiosity back from taking a peek at the filthy, old three-ringed binder. I sincerely wish I had; I was not in the right mental space to read what I had just read. Gaining the knowledge that was hidden away inside of that binder was more of a curse than it was a blessing. The way I thought about life, in general, changed dramatically from that point on, nothing would ever be the same again. Written in ink on a hardened piece of lined notebook paper, I read the following: ‘Today, September 23rd, 1976, I met a few young women that claimed they had been in an accident. Linda Ericson, approximately eighteen years old, Sandra Tannell, approximately twenty-four years old, and Wanda Williams, approximately twenty-eight years old, were in the old Sander’s coffee shop talking amongst themselves. I was studying up on my favorite subject, which will remain nameless because it is so obvious, especially if someone other than m

The slaughtered body of the homeless drug addict that I split in two with a hellacious laser beam from my inscripted hand before we entered the darkness had disappeared. It was clearly splayed out for all to see and showed no obvious logical signs of going anywhere anytime soon. How it had magically disappeared was beyond me, there was not even a sign of blood or fragments of flesh lying about. It truly baffled my mind as to how a body that had been split into two distinct halves could have disappeared along with all the splattered pieces that went along with it. We had finally broken free from the darkness of the abandoned, decrepit K-Mart and had made our way into the light of the outside world. Todd’s van was still where we had left it, everything was still in place just as it was before we entered the darkness to save Todd and defeat the Haunting Naomi

There is a time that comes in every single person’s life, no one is immune from it, that you see someone you love as the worst being on the face of the planet. It happens to all of us, it does not last long, but it does happen. None of us want this to happen, who wants to hate someone they love so dearly? At this moment in time, after what Jackson did, after I tell you what he did, you will understand how I had this feeling.It all happened so fast, to be honest. There was no time for any of us to respond to what he thought was the right thing to do. Telling the story now, even as dead as I am, my heart still hurts from that moment. More than how horrible I felt when I found out my mom hit a child with a car, killed him, and left the scene. It is the worst I have ever felt. Jackson made a decision and performed an action, he was scared, and he acted out, it was a mistake, but he did not see it as that in the heat of the mo

The giant wolf had been struck one time by the now deceased mimicking demon that had taken Todd into the darkness of the abandoned K-Mart. Shining the spotlight on the wolf’s body, the attack by the demon had contacted its torso. Ribs and blood, internal organs and shredded flash all filled my line of sight when inspecting the giant wolf that had saved the day and eliminated the mimicking demon. As usual, our mission’s objective had been modified on the fly. We had to get to Todd, he was hunched over in the corner, we were still not sure if he was alright or if he was in need of some rejuvenation. Now, I felt we were obligated to take care of the giant wolf, the one that formerly was possessed and under control of demon Mrs. Williams. It was the least we could do considering the fact that the wolf had single handedly taken care of the demon and saved us a lot of heartache and potential damages. I said, “Jennifer, go to Todd.

Navigating as effectively and efficiently around the poor homeless man that I had just split in half after he came running out of the darkness, the three of us walked briskly into the abandoned K-Mart ready for a fight to save Todd. On my way in, I snatched up the spotlight and made sure it illuminated every square inch of real estate in front of us, ensuring our path was clear or we would be able to see anything dangerous in our way so that we could work our way around it. Shining the light back and forth, covering my two counterparts from any attacks from drunks or druggies, we pushed in as fast as possible without risking any chance of injury or worse. Jennifer and Jackson led the charge, side by side, ready to get into the action and accomplish our goal of getting Todd back in one piece. I took up the rear, providing the light needed and also making sure nothing snuck up behind us as the darkness chased behind our feet. In the distance, as we ru
