I see dead people... (started BUT STILL open)

I kept looking at the evil spirit. She was watching me as close as i was watching her.

I touched Amy's hand and gasped....That's when the flashback started...

I was seeing it like I was in there myself. I could turn and look at all the points in the house...The mother left at the same time her father came in. That was nothing unusual. He saw the broken tv and anger showed on his face. He hit her and tears ran down my face. I couldn't do anything to help. I had to watch. He picked her up and took her upstairs and raped her. She was only 7! How can he do this to his own child. She kept crying and he hit her hard on the head...Hard enough to kill her...He finished and took the body outside where he placed her in the pool to make it look like she hit her head and drowned. the body was taken and the father never got charged of killing his daughter. Her body was creamed and her ashes were put into a jar, that I would guess, was still in the family's house.

I came back to it and tears fell down my face. I looked at Amy and shook my head.

I saw the girl's friend crying and i gave her a hug. "Don't cry." i told her. "Everything is going to be all right" i said

I held her hand a bit. "We have to help this one.." I whispered in Tara's ear.

"Help with what?. To find my mommy?" i asked.

"Can someone tell me what's going on. Because the only Dead person I SEE here is me"

I looked at him. My jaw dropped. He was gorgeous... "uh.." wait, did he say he was dead? i looked at all the ghosts around.. and then him.. he wasn't dead...

"Not in the ghost sense no. In the I am way older than you and I died in the 1500's kind of way."

My jaw dropped again. I looked at Tara. We really were around "different people." i couldn't look away from him though.. he was too god like. I tried to clear my head.

"I told you two I was different. Just not in the same way as you. I am a Vampire."

i gulped. "that would explain why you are so..." i trailed off. I wasn't very out spoken with what i wanted to say.

"explain why I'm very what?" I said and smiled at her

"there's no dead people here... Wait youre a vampire!!!! Get away don't hurt me!!!!" i said cowering and hiding behind the girl

I looked down at Lucia. "um, sweetie..." I knelt down to her. "You ARE dead..." I finally said.

"thats not something very nice to say, besides how can i be dead. Im here and you're talking to me, right?"

I sighed. "I can talk and see dead people... You're daddy, he hurt you and then he covered it up..." My voice cracked as I was trying not to cry. "I am not trying to be mean..."

"What are you talking about. My dad couldnt.... Im not......." then i started to cry.

I held my breath. "You're daddy hit you on your head. I don't know if he did it to kill you but it did... "

I dont know why but then i remember everything. The feeling of my skull cracking........nothingness...... Waking up to red water...... Kicking and fighting.... Cant breath..... The water filling me lungs.... I cried harder. "I remember everything now. I remember how much it hurt. I remember not being able to swim, the water filling my lungs. But if im dead, why am i not with god..... In heaven? Does god hate me for being so bad?"

I hadn't been asked that one before. I didn't know if God was real. I wanted him to be. I looked at her unable to answer her question.

"So it doesn't bother you that the kid at your school is a vampire, and he is basically the welcoming party? Usually I've been kicked, punched stabbed, shot, called a liar, had something else done to me, and there was even this one time someone tried to strangle me with a rubber chicken."

I looked at him. "i see dead people. You eatting the people i will see isn't a scare to me anymore." i stated.

"But then again, how would you know...... I dont want to go anymore..... I want to stay... With you two" i told the girl

"the scary girl is there again!" i said to them while pointing to the boy's neck
