“WHERE ARE KUKI AND WALLY?” Raleigh shouted the seguinte morning.
“Who cares?” Kacey said, hugging a bag of Goldfish. (XD)
“They ARE missing.” Kiki said poking her head out of the tent.
“Oh, I know where they went.” David said with a smirk.
“Oh, puh-lease.” Megan said. “They were abducted por ghosts! Remember how one whispered in my ear last night?”
“Ghosts don’t exist, Smart One!” Abby called from her tent. “Now shut up! Numbuh 5 is trying to sleep!”
“She’s right.” Hoagie said.
“Thank you!” Abby said.
“No, not you. Megan is.”
“I am?” Megan smiled.
“Yes. Kuki and Wally WERE abducted. I couldn’t sleep and I heard them. Kuki got up to go to the bathroom or something and Wally followed her-.”
“Of course he did.” Kacey muttered to Brooke. Brooke snickered.
“-And he called her name a few times. But no one answered. Then it stopped.” Hoagie finished.
“Stopped what?” Brooke asked.
“Stopped calling her name.” Hoagie answered.
“But he wouldn’t stop. Wally would keep on going till he found her.” Abby pointed out.
“Exactly!”
“Let’s investigate!” Kacey said shooting out of the tent.
“Whatever you say, Sherlock.” Christian muttered.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Open the door.” Kacey ordered Raleigh.
“No, you open it.”
“No, you!”
“YOU!”
“YOU!”
“SHUT UP!” Abby screamed in their ears. “Wally’s mais mature than this!”
“If he was mature, he would have left Kuki.” David said.
“Why?” Megan asked.
“Because Wally’s a guy and he doesn’t need a girl like Kuki.” David said.
“That’s so sexist!” Megan yelled.
“No! Just because you’re the weaker gender doesn’t mean you have to get feisty!” David yelled back.
Brooke immediately grabbed Megan’s shirt.
“LEMME AT HIM! LEMME AT HIM! LET GO! LEMME AT HIM!” Megan screamed.
“Ha.” David said. “You are the weaker gender.”
Brooke and Megan looked at each other.
“Well, what’re you waiting for?” Abby said.
All the girls nodded.
Brooke let go of Megan’s camisa and the girls laughed as Megan pounded on David. When David got out, he looked at Christian.
“Help.”
“You WERE kinda sexist, dude.” Christian answered.
“DUDE!”
“QUIT FIGHTING!” Kacey yelled. “We need to get into the árvore house and find Kuki and Wally!”
“Fine.”
The kids entered the house, but right as Kacey stepped in, Wally ran passed her screaming.
“Holy crap, dude!” David yelled. “Chill!”
“G-g-g-ghosts!” Wally yelled. “G-g-g-g-got Kuki!”
“There’s no such thing as ghosts!” Abby screamed. “How many times do I have to tell you people?!?!”
Just then, Kuki ran screaming passed everyone.
“You too?” Brooke lifted an eyebrow.
“This better not have to do with g-.” Abby began.
“GHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSTS!” Kuki yelled hiding behind Wally.
“You guys are insane!” Brooke yelled.
“She agrees.” Abby said, nodding.
“What happened?” Hoagie asked.
“Do you know anything?” Kiki asked.
“Erm….”
“After a ghost lets you go, they erase your memory of everything that happened except they let you keep your memory of seeing the ghost so when you tell people they’ll think you’re crazy.” Kiki explained.
“That’s totally false, but explains everything.” Abby muttered.
“I do remember this guy who looks really familiar, and a teenager, and a little girl.” Kuki said.
“Weird.” Wally said. “I saw a little girl too.”
“THE LITTLE GHOST GIRL FROM THE STORY!” Megan yelled.
“You’re full of baloney.” Kacey said.
“I think it’s spelled B-O-L-O-G-N-A. You know, bologna.” Raleigh said.
“You are too.” Kacey lowered her eyebrows.
“Wow, I should have showed up sooner.” A girl said from behind.
When everyone turned around, they saw a girl with short brown hair, and a ‘You people are dumb’ look on her face.
“EMMA?!?!?!?!” Kacey, Kiki, and Megan shouted at the same time.
“Yup. You guys sure need a lesson about ghosts. Except for Kiki.” Emma said.
“HA!” Kiki shouted.
“Shut up.” David said.
“What do you mean?” Abby asked.
“Ghosts exist, alright.” Emma said. “But they’ve probably moved on to a different house. Probably their lair. The old spooky house on Pontiac Drive.”
“I live on Pontiac Drive!” Raleigh said. “I know that house!”
“Lead the way, Raleigh.” Hoagie said.
And so she did.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“When are we gonna get there?” Wally asked.
“When we do, I guess.” Raleigh said, still leading.
“Why do we need to fight the ghosts anyway?” Wally continued to whine.
“Because!” Emma told him.
“Because why?” Wally whined.
“Do you want to die?” Emma asked.
Wally lowered his head. “No.”
“Then that’s because why.”
“Fine! But it’s just a waste of time.” Wally said, crossing his arms.
Kuki walked over to Wally. “We’re almost there. Look!”
Over in the distance, a spooky, old house that HAD to be abandoned sat there. But if you looked closely, you could see what looked like air but were really ghosts flying around the house.
“That’s wind.” Abby pointed out.
“Ghosts.” Raleigh said. “You can’t see wind.”
Abby growled.
“Well,” Kacey said. “Let’s go.”
“Um…, ya, I don’t think we’re ready…” Wally said.
“OK, then. Let’s partner up.” Kacey agreed.
“Do we get to-?” Raleigh began.
“No, we’re not picking partners.” Kacey said. “Here are the pairs: Kuki and Wally, Megan and Hoagie, Kiki, and Emma, David and Christian, Brooke and Abby, and me and Raleigh.”
“Wonderful.” Megan muttered. Hoagie smirked.
“Alright, troops. Find different entrances, and then snoop around.” Kacey ordered. “MOVE OUT!”
And everyone did, as exciting as it was.
