"Wow!" Kacey exclaimed as she and Raleigh entered the living room of the spooky house. "This looks just like the room in the Tower of Terror!"
Raleigh looked up above the fireplace. "Uh, Kacey?"
"Well, yeah, I know it's scary but-"
"No, look!" Raleigh pointed above the fireplace and both girls froze.
Above the fireplace hung a skeleton by its neck, it had a knife logged in its back, and one of those very old guns in its head.
Kacey grabbed her KN-Communicator.
"What's that?" Raleigh asked.
"You're in the KND, Smart One." Kacey said turning it on. "You should know."
"Ya but you know I have Short Term Memory Loss."
"You don't." Kacey turned the knob to check the signal.
"JUST TELL ME WHAT IT IS." Raleigh said.
"It's a communicator. I'm gonna contact David and Christian to see if everything's OK."
"Ooooooooooooooooooooooh."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
David's head hung. He was SO bored. Christian was taking violent notes about everything he saw. For Christian, a haunted how was luxury.
"Dude, can we hurry up?" David said.
"Not until we kill that ghost!" Christian said with maniacal laughter.
"Wait, isn't a ghost already dead?"
The next thing David knew, he was slapped.
"SHUT UP! I'm in my habitat."
"Um, dude, are you sure you're OK?" David asked.
"OK? Of course I'm OK, I'm always OK!" Christian said.
"......." David peeked at Christian's paper. It was just scribbles. Then, David's communicator vibrated. It was Kacey.
"Hello?" He asked.
"Hey, we found a creepy skeleton guy that looks like he was tortured to death." Kacey replied. "What's up with you?"
"Christian is acting weird." David said. Christian looked at an old clock, then scribbled.
"What's he doing?" Kacey asked urgently.
"Um, acting like that one guy on that show we watched, had maniacal laughter, scribbling down random things." David said. "Why-?"
"OMIGOD!" Kacey yelled. "THOSE ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF BEING POSSESSED!"
David paused. "How would you kn-"
"I watch a lot of horror movies with Kiki."
"Oh." David finally got up with reality. "HOLY CRAP, WHAT DO I DO?!"
"J- just, keep calm, and don't make him angry."
David blinked.
"YOU PISSED HIM OFF?!?!?!?!" Kacey screamed.
"I'm sorry! I just corrected him that ghosts are dead already and can't be killed."
"YOU IDIOT! IF HE'S BEING POSSESSED, THAT COULD BE SUICIDE!"
The next thing that happened, David dropped his communicator and ran screaming for the hills.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Wow! This house reminds me of a TON of horror movies. And it looks like the Tower of Terror." Kiki said.
"Yup." Emma was becoming annoyed. VERY annoyed.
"You have been on it?" Kiki asked.
"If I say yes, will you shut up?" Emma asked.
Kiki grinned from ear to ear.
"Ugh."
The girls went down a bunch of hallways. Eventually, they heard a faint screaming.
"What the-?" Emma asked. Kiki shrugged.
Then, David came running in at full speed, crashing into Emma.
"Why, hello there." He said with a smirk. Emma shoved him off.
"WTF DAVID?" Kiki screamed.
"Oh, yeah, did I mention Christian is being possessed?" David asked.
Both girls screamed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I can't believe we were dragged into this." Brooke said. "This is the last time I hang out with you guys."
"Smart choice." Abby said. "I don't even BELIEVE in ghosts."
"It's just a scam."
"I know." Abby agreed. "It always is."
"Does Raleigh always come?"
"Nah."
"Oh. Just you guys?"
“Ya.” Abby yawned.
“You tired?” Brooke yawned herself.
“Sorta. But I slept well last night.”
“Call Kacey. Ask her if anything else is going on.” Brooke yawned.
“EVERYBODY calls Kacey.” (So true! XD) Abby said. “I’ll call Kuki.”
“Why not Kiki, or David?” Brooke wondered.
“You’re new at this, aren’t you?” Abby pulled out her communicator.
Brooke smiled.
“Something goes wrong. Always. Usually Kuki and Wally are off in some place. And besides, if something goes wrong with either of them, they save each other.” Abby typed in Kuki’s number.
“What if they’re both in danger?” Brooke asked.
“Then they’re screwed.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kuki sighed, walking took forever. Especially in this huge house. Secretly, Kuki had her favorite orange Rainbow Monkey, Wallyku, hidden in her bag. It also had water bottles and sandwiches for her and Wally.
“Where is this d-d-d-d-dumb ghost, anyways?” Wally asked.
Kuki shrugged.
“By the way, where were you last night?” Wally asked.
“I went to go to the bathroom.” Kuki said, shyly. “I’d been holding it in all day.”
“I... really didn’t need to know that.” Wally said.
“Sorry.”
“I mean, after that. You were gone FOREVER.”
“Well,” Kuki said. “I was washing my hands when I saw this familiar guy. His name is on the tip of my tongue.”
“A villain?” Wally asked.
“Nah.”
“Umm… a KND operative?”
“Too old.”
“Well, I got nothin’.” Wally sighed.
Kuki’s communicator buzzed with the Rainbow Monkey theme song.
Wally put his hands over his ears. “AAHHHH! NOT THIS AGAIN!”
“Hello?” Kuki asked.
“Hey, it’s Abs. Are you guys tired? *yawn*” Abby said on the other line.
“No.” Kuki said. “Wally are you tired?”
“No.”
“Nope!” Kuki said.
“Oh. Well, me and Brooke are yawning up a storm!” Abby yawned.
“STOP IT!” Kuki screamed.
“What?!?!?” Abby swung around in a few circles in commando mode.
“If you keep yawning, I’ll catch it!”
Abby waited. “You didn’t yawn.”
“That’s odd.” Kuki shrugged.
“’K bye.” Abby hung up.
“Well, that’s weird.”
Wally sighed. “I’m kinda hungry.” Wally gulped. Was this his chance to ‘ask’ Kuki out to lunch?
“OK…?” Kuki seemed confused.
“Wanna sit down and eat?” He asked.
“SURE! I’M STARVIN’!” Kuki yelled. She pulled out the sandwiches and handed one to Wally. Wally looked at his. Turkey and provolone cheese. He and the rest of Sector V’s favorite.
Kuki took a bite. She smiled. Even with food in her teeth, to Wally, she was still cute. (OMG, so weird to type that.)
“Eat your sandwich.” Kuki said.
“Oh yeah.” Wally bit his sandwich. Kuki was the best sandwich maker.
“Why’d you come in after me? I heard you call me.” Kuki said.
Wally felt a sliver of embarrassment rush through him. “Ummm…”
Kuki smiled.
“I thought you fell in the bathtub again.” Wally blushed.
“I wouldn’t let you in when that happened. I only had Kacey and Abby come in. I was crying with pain and blood. They helped me up, I got dressed, and needed stitches.” Kuki said. “Kacey said you were pounding on the door, begging to come in. She said you were crying.”
Now, Wally felt like he was struck with a lightning bolt.
“Well, you could’ve died.” Wally said shyly.
“It was only my chin!” Kuki said. “But it hurt like H-E Double Hockey Sticks!”
“Oh.” Wally said.
“Ya.” Kuki sighed.
“Well… Whatchya wanna do?” Wally asked.
“I dunno. Maybe Kacey and the others are havin’ better luck.” Kuki said.
