Spirit of Halloween chapter 2

chapter 2


No matter how hard I tried, I could not leave the house. I checked every door, every window, all repel me from the invisible force I could not fight. It was true then;

I was the Spirit of Halloween’s servant. But why me? Spirit told me that I was the very first person to ever come here and not be frightened by his presence, thus that makes me his servant. Doesn’t really make a whole lot of sense, does it?

Ghosts roamed the house, and it seems as if they’re gonna be my new friends. Goodbye, old friends; have a happy life. I’m so jealous you’re all going to have a happy, great life while i’m going to have a boring, torturous life.

I had to, literally, sleep on the floor that night with a raggedy old blanket, and I really didn’t get much sleep because spirit woke me up at 2 in the morning.

“Servant, wake up,” he shouted, shaking me rapidly until I was awake. I glanced at his pitch black eyes, somewhat full of concern.

“What,” I groaned, slowly getting up. “I’ve already done enough for you; can I please just rest for ONE night?”

“Servant, don’t be silly! You know i’m almost out of screams,” he replied, showing me the watch on his left wrist that had a compass-like progress bar. The needle showed half progress.

“So? What’s so important about screams?”

“Servant, have you forgotten? without the humans’ screams, i’ll die and be forgotten! I am the spirit of Halloween after all, aren’t I?”

I sighed, getting up off the floor and wiping the dust off of my clothes.

“Fine. But will you please let me go after I do this for you?”

“You know I cannot do that, servant! Once you’re marked, I can’t erase it!”

I groaned. Now I’m really stuck here forever. “Well, can you please stop calling me ‘Servant’? I have a name, you know.”

“Anything you’d like!”

“I’m (your name)."



Didn’t expect to be in this, did ya? XDD
