Griffin Lacy

Mars There I was getting out of the ship my legs felt like I just ran a ten mile marathon I could barely walk. There was just sand, nothing else it felt like I could barely breath. We got out our rover I got in and we drove and collected sand. After we set up a space station, we took all our stuff. Then we contacted NASA. We went to sleep. I felt weird, like my body was going to break under my own weight. We had to have air and water shipped to us. I felt weird, to think we were there only ones on Mars.

WEIRD I was minding my own 7:52 PM business eating potato's, when a clown runs through my door and asks me if I like burger king. I say no and then he starts yelling gibberirsh and runs off. " What a maniac" I say to myself. The next morning I go to school and it was insanity, and I don't mean normal everyday school insanity I mean kids running around with plastic knives, teachers trying to play basketball with a hat, and the mascot was running across the hall with a torch yelling " Burn them, burn them" So then I walk straight back out. But its even worse out here. People were running around and some guys were fighting over a tree saying it was their girlfriend. Then I woke up, and the same exact thing happened, same clown, same mascot, even same to guys fighting over the tree. Then I wake up, same thing, wake up again, same thing, then I wake up again and guess what, same thing "oh forget it" I say

How America Was Founded

It was 1984, Ronald McDonald was in this new country called Burger and the King called "Burger King" Ronald wanted to travel but he didn't have the money. He asked Burger King if he could have some "Burger Bills" But he said he needed to pay taxes. So him and some of his friends went out to sea and he threw burgers overboard and burned chicken nuggets. So ronald got to travel and he found a fast food resturaunt with these native mcamericans. He took over the fast food resturant and called it McAmerica. That was how america was founded.

How to Cook Things
If you want to cook something first you have to put it in the toaster. Then once it has burned all the way through put it in the freezer after 1 year take it out, it should be moldy. Now give it to your dog that is how to cook things for your dog. I forgot to put up "For Your Dog

How to Catch Ghosts

First you have to perform an ancient ritual, the things you will need for the ritual are 2 week old milk, rotten meat, termite infested wood, a carton of rotten eggs, moldy cheese, and a dirty diaper. First you need to put the meat on the wood and pour the milk on it. Then take the rotten egg and the cheese put it in the diaper, then mix it. After you have done that put everything in the microwave if you do not have a microwave PUT IT IN THE TOASTER. After that you have to put in a bag and throw it. And guess what...you just actually believed this was real. YAY

Once upon a time, there was an ogre named Barp. Barp liked to eat he at so much that he popped. The end.

What is that light coming from that huge and thin box it looks like a feathered creature and a striped brown creature communicating how is that possible.

Creepy McDonalds Story
It was November 12th "ring, ring, ring" "wha...Huh? Why is the phone ringing at 4 in the morning seriously." I said as I picked up the phone that was my biggest mistake that almost costed me my life. "Who is this? Why are you calling so early?" I asked the mysterious caller. "listen to me and listen close" said a voice that sounded like a crazed man that had just ran a 5k. "who the heck is this I'm not in the mood for prank calls" I said "Look out your window...NOW!!!" said the voice that now sounded like he was angry and wasn't afraid to break the law. I looked out the window and there was a clown not just a normal clown a clown with blood dripping down his yellow jacket. He had a scar that went across his whole face. He had a dagger in his hand that was covered with blood. "let me in your house and you won't get hurt." said the voice again. I immediately hung up the phone and closed the shutters. Then I heard something break downstairs so I called the police and they said they would be there soon. As soon as I hung up the phone I heard a voice behind me. "bad idea" then I felt a horrible feeling in my leg, it felt like I had just been stabbed and I had. Luckily the cops came and he was arrested. If they hadn't came I at that time I would've died, but I wish they would've come a little earlier because now I'm stuck in a hospital for 2 weeks. Apparently he was a McDonalds mascot who went insane and became a cereal killer. So the moral of the story is kids don't go to McDonalds or an insane cereal killer will break into your house and stab your leg and you will have to be stuck in a hospital for 2 weeks.

Chapter One: Planning
There I was walking down a hallway to a possible death all alone. Okay, Okay let me tell you what is happening completely and the only way to do the is to go back 2 days ago. "Hey are we still going?" I asked "Yes of course it's the only time it's unlocked and it probably will be locked for the next 50 years if we don't go this weekend" said my friend. "Yes! I need to see ghosts and eat their souls" said my other friend (but he is pretty weird) "I told you guys already I might not be able to go" said my other friend. He was the one that I knew the longest. So I'll tell you my friends names so I don't have to keep saying my friend. So the first friend that you heard is named Betty, she always wears black and calls me dork for some reason but I'm fine with it. My other friend (the weird one) is named Ernie Bernie. I really don't know. The third friend that is always busy, is named Pico but I call him picachu. We were planning to go into a apparent haunted mansion. It is usually locked but since there are apparent ghost hunters going in there we are going to sneak in and try to last the night while we all bring our phones to record. "So we all bring a flashlight but not to bright so if the special effects artists don't see us. Also bring your phone fully charged and also bring an extra video camera if your phone runs out of battery." said Betty "Okay so meet at my house so I can eat you. HA HA." added Ernie. But we all knew that he just meant meet at my house. Pico was about to talk but I knew that he was about to make another excuse of why he couldn't come, so I started talking before him so that he couldn't talk. "Okay so after school meet back here to talk again" I concluded. So after that "great day of school" we all did what we said we would and we met back at the exact place we talked yesterday. "Guys I have bad news, there is heavy rain on Saturday, So the ghost hunters are going in the mansion tonight and leaving tomorrow morning so we have to leave tonight" said Betty "What skipping school tomorrow!" yelled Pico "Yes It's the only way that we are ever going to be able to go. Plus have you forgot that if we actually got something on camera we would be insanely rich!" I said "Yeah, but what if we don't get anything on camera or even worse what if we die trying to get the ghost on camera?" Pico blurted "ahh...Ha ha! You admitted it!" yelled Ernie "Admitted what?" asked Pico "You admitted that you believe in ghosts!" blurted Ernie "Okay I'm leaving!" said Pico "No wait come on!" called Betty "Fine...I'll go with you guys just tell me the plan and I'll meet you guys tomorrow." said Pico "Wow, that was quick" I added "Okay so tomorrow we meet on the other side of the street in front of the school" explained Betty "Oh, right near that neighborhood?" I asked "Yes, then we'll take it from there" concluded Betty

= THIRD MARKING PERIOD STARTS HERE =

Chapter Two: Entering a Nightmare
Right after I got out of my mom's car and she left I went to the other side of the street. Everyone was already there. "Hey over here!" called betty "Sooooo, how are we gonna get there?" I asked "We walk, that's why we came before school, you don't think that we were just going before school just to skip school there has to be a reason!" argued betty "Okay, okay" I said "Did anyone bring there waterbottle because if you didn't that is bad and we are not going back for them" added Ernie "Poop" I said under my breathe. We walked and we walked and guess what? We kept walking. Finally we got there and It was already getting dark. "Is this the place?" asked Pico "Hmm I don't know, big rusty gates, peeling paint, a big truck that says "ghost hunters" and a sign on the front that says DO NOT ENTER. I think it's a couple miles down" said Ernie in a funny but frustrating way. "do you have anything that can get us in here" asked Pico "Yes, let me just get my sledge hammer that I have in my left pocket. No of course I don't have anything that can get us in. We have to climb over" said Betty "You know what no I'm done" said Pico "Hey" said a voice that we knew wasn't any of us. "Hi, I'm Leroy are you trying to get in here" said Leroy "Oh your a social person" said Betty "Yeah, sure" said Leroy "I wanted to go in here just I didn't want to go alone. Can I join your "team" I know everything about this place I can guide you through the mansion" explained Leroy "Yeah, sure" said Betty "This is Betty, his name is Pico, and this weird kid over hear is Ernie" I explained "Okay, follow me and I will show you how to get into mansion." said Leroy "So you're saying we don't have to climb over the wall?" asked Pico "Of course we don't have to, just follow me" said Leroy "There is a hole in the wall up here" explained Leroy "So your saying we have to crawl on the ground?" asked Pico "Yeah" answered Leroy "I'd rather climb the wall" said Pico under his breath. We went through the hole but it was really tiny and hard to get through. When we all finally got through we had to avoid the "ghost hunters" and when we got out of their sight Leroy turned back around and said "There is an opening in one of the windows over here" "Hey, how do you know all of this stuff about the mansion" asked Ernie which was the most normal thing I've ever heard him say. Leroy immediately stopped and changed the subject "The hole in the window is right over here" said Leroy. As soon as everyone got down there we all said that we were fine with this place and that it wasn't that creepy but we all knew that we were lying and wanted to get out of this place as soon as possible. After a couple of moments of silence, Ernie completely ran off, not outside but through one of the passages in the basement. "Hey, were are you going" called Pico. We all ran after him, and what we saw would change everything.

Chapter Three: Not What You Think
There was a light at the end of the tunnel, it looked like neon or something like that but as we looked closer we saw someone with that light coming out of them. We had to come about five feet away before we could all clearly see what was going on, it was Leroy he started floating, as he was ascending off the ground he turned towards us. We all thought that we were dead but after he was looking at us he started turning again he turned to Ernie. Just looking at Ernie's face scared me. The horrible thing about that was we all knew that Ernie was going to be killed in a couple of seconds, but none of us could move. We knew that we could do nothing but we didn't even try to save him. We ran and as we were running we heard a loud scream that slowly turned to silence. We found our way upstairs and we immediately went to the front door but it was locked, we went to another door it was locked too, they were all locked. "What the heck are we gonna do!" yelled Pico "Shhh! what are you trying to do get us all killed to?" I said. We heard footsteps we ran upstairs we went into a bedroom that looked like it was the room of a little boy, not like our age but a three year old's room. We hid in a closet then we heard of a voice of one of the ghost hunters. We all ran out Pico first "oh thank you, thank you" said Pico. The ghost hunter grabbed Pico and started to strangle him, luckily he saw us and dropped him we ran out and went back down stairs. Pico was still coming down stairs, we couldn't wait for him. We ran to this living room kind of place. There were a couple of book shelves, we tried to get books of so that we could move the shelves to get behind them. We pulled one book off and we found a button. We pushed it and the door creaked open. It was a secret passage and it felt like we were going down stairs for miles. At the bottom we saw a boy, he looked like he had been stuck down here for days. "who are you, get out now" said the boy "shhhhh" yelled Betty "What are you doing why are you here!" asked the boy "We can ask the same thing to you" I said "I was down here with my father and I went out on my own and I found this place, look there is something down here it calls itself Leroy"said the boy "Yes, we know he killed two of our friends" I said "Okay I couldn't do this alone but I can now, just don't die for maybe an hour and we can get out" He said "If we can trust you, you have to tell us your name" said Betty "My name is Douglas, okay does it really matter, no get out" demanded Douglas "Wait what, if we go out there we are going to die!" yelled Betty "Exactly if you want to get out come back in an hour alive so I know your tough enough" said Douglas We went back upstairs and we opened up the secret passage. We both knew that if we wanted to live, we had to do this.

Chapter Four: Old Friends
When we walked out we immediately ran we knew that we could have a chance if we went in the basement. It was dark and the ghost was up here looking for us. We went in the basement and we heard footsteps coming from behind a corner we both hid behind the corner and I jumped out from the corner and I saw both Pico and Ernie. "Wait, what? How? What?" I asked "Thanks for leaving me with that, thing" Yelled Ernie "Yeah and me with that guy that could have killed me" yelled Pico "look I know this all seems bad, but we found a way to get out of this place." I said "How" yelled Pico "We found someone else ho can help us" said Betty "No, I am not trusting anyone else besides you guys!" Yelled Ernie "No, this guy seems pretty legit" I said "Yeah, and Leroy seemed pretty legit but guess what, he tried to kill me." Yelled Ernie "Yeah but he said we need to survive for an hour before we can come back so he can help us" I said "An hour, why do we need to survive and hour!" Yelled Pico "So that he knows that we are tough enough so we can handle what he is going to do" said Betty "Fine, Lets go upstairs, it's way to creepy down here" said Pico. We went upstairs and we saw the ghost it looked strait at us and we ran there were passage ways everywhere I accidentally went through a passage all by myself. The ghost was going for my friends and I couldn't do anything then I saw a figure. "come here" the figure said. I had no other choice but to walk forward. There I was walking down a hallway to my possible death all alone. When I came closer, I could see the figure a little bit better. It was Douglas. "What I thought you were down in the secret passage." I said "Yeah, but the ghost found me and I had to come up here" answered Douglas "The ghost is chasing my friends how can I help them?" I asked "Friends? I thought it was just the girl who else is here?" asked Douglas "Turns out the friends that I said weren't dead, but all my friends will be dead if I don't help them!" I yelled "Okay I can help them, I only need one of your friends to live" said Douglas "Well I need all of them to live, their my friends!" I yelled "Fine, fine, we'll save all of your friends." said Douglas in an annoying voice. We walked through the hallways, Douglas kept looking back. He said he was seeing if my friends were behind us but I could tell that he was just looking for a reason not to help me. There was a light in a hallway a couple of feet away from us. We peeked in because we both thought it was the ghost. It was my friends. "Oh my god I finally found you" I said "Shhhhh" said Betty. I was about to ask why but before I could I saw why. The ghost was right behind me, I stood still for a couple of seconds because was so scared. The ghost was about to grab me but we ran before it could. It was right behind all of us and could grab any one of us. We turned a corner and again so it couldn't see were we went. It passed by slowly, we all were scared and were about to scream. "Okay, guys what I need you to do is go to the door and push as hard as you can I only need two of you or three of you if I don't make it, if that happens there is a blue book on the shelf of the secret passage called "curses" it will tell you a spell that you need to recite while the others push on the door." explained Douglas "Oh and...AHHHHHH" he said before the ghost got him. We saw him get ripped apart. It was hard to watch and I almost puked.

Chapter Five: Questioning Everything
We saw Douglas be killed right in front of us. It was horrifying, a person that was guiding us out of something that could kill us he was saving our lives and he died right in front of us. We ran the other way upstairs and found a ghost hunter. "No don't go up to him" warned Pico "Why!?" asked Ernie "Because I made that mistake and I almost died" said Pico. We ran from the ghost hunter and went through a hallway to find more of them, their faces were emotionless. They walked closer and closer until we heard "Stop" coming from downstairs. It was the ghost he came through the floor. "What is happening, tell us!" Yelled Betty "You haven't found out yet, this all fake everything. The ghost hunters were set up. They were never coming here to make a TV show. They never eve came I made them, everything that has interacted with you besides each other and this house I made. Even your buddy Douglas. Did you really think that anyone could know about this house that much by just staying here for a couple of hours." said the ghost "If this was all set up, why did you try to kill us!?" asked Pico "First of all I'm not trying to kill you I am killing you and do you remember the name Matthew?" said the ghost "What, Matthew? We weren't trying to kill you it was just a prank" I said "A prank, so saying you want to play tag and leaving your friend to starve and have to crawl to an abandon house so you can find some water is a prank?" yelled the ghost "You know what, I was going to leave you to starve to but I think I'll just get my minions to make you suffer" said the ghost. When we heard that we noticed an old sword on the wall. I grabbed it, ran into the ghost hunters and swung hoping it would kill them it did. We ran downstairs to look for a way to get out. We found an opening in a window. We all got out and ran to a road hoping the ghost wouldn't catch up. There was a blue panel in front of us, it looked like glass but it wasn't, it was a force field. The ghost had made it, we all saw it and tried to run through it. It stopped us, and we couldn't go anywhere. The ghost was about to rip us apart but then I felt a hand on my soldier. It was the police hey had pulled us through somehow, The ghost came to us but he could not get through the force field, he couldn't get through his own creation. But he didn't just get stopped he burned the force field was killing him. I saw him melt and turn into a pile of mush. It was all over.

Epilogue
All of my friends went back to their houses, but I didn't I went back to the abandon house because I didn't completely know what was going on I was still confused, I needed to know what was going on. How did he get all that power. If ghosts could have that much power, wouldn't he world be destroyed from all the ghosts? I went back down to the basement and saw a candle at the end of a hall. I went over, it was Matthew's body laying on the ground. He had a candle in his hand, but I didn't think that there was a candle that was burning for four years. But then I looked closer, the skeleton had a tag on him, it said Harris, that skeleton wasn't Matthew's. Then I kept looking around I saw two other skeletons. But then I thought If that was Matthew's ghost why did he call himself Leroy and Douglas then I wen to the two other skeletons. They had the tags Leroy and Douglas. I kept looking around then I saw another skeleton. It had shattered bones and a ripped up name tag. I put the name tag together and it said Matthew. Then I started thinking, if there were four skeletons then there are four ghosts. Then I also saw a crystal ball, I looked at it and I saw Matthew being tortured by three other ghosts. Then I realized, that wasn't Matthew's ghost they were using his name. That was three other ghosts working together and Matthew was actually trying to help us. But that also means, we only destroyed one ghost and there are still two others.

Chapter One: Recovery
Everyday when I wake up and I look at myself in the mirror I see a monster not a ghost not anything behind me, I see me. I can't stop thinking about how me and my friends left Matthew alone, in the middle of nowhere, to starve and when we come back his spirit protects us. I never thought that someone or something could forgive anyone for something like that. It has been two years since I've seen that mansion. A couple weeks ago Ernie went back to the mansion by himself because I told him about the four skeletons, we haven't seen him since. I have dreams about what happened and what would happen if I didn't tell Ernie. Maybe he would still be there and I have nightmares about what might have happened to him, why isn't he here. Me, Pico, and Betty haven't really talked since the mansion. Everyday I feel horrible I feel like it was my fault that all of this happened. I'm home schooled now, so everything I would be doing at school, I do on my computer. I have the same schedule every day, wake up, school, eat, sleep. That is what happened every single day...until one night I had a dream, it was more like images. It was of the mansion, and a hallway in the mansion, one that I know I never went in. I kept having these dreams. One day I got a text, it was from Pico. This means something is serious, I was always the first one to text. He texted me that he was having these weird dreams of the mansion. I texted him back of it was about a tunnel that he has never seen. He said yes and I immediately text Betty if she had any dreams about the mansion and a tunnel that none of us have ever seen before she also said yes. I texted them both to meet at my house tomorrow.

Chapter Two: Arguments
I didn't know what was going to happen, I was nervous. Were they going to be mad at me since this is the first time I've talked to them in a year and a half? Were they going to hate me for bringing them back into this mess? My mind was racing, I didn't know what I was focused on. Then the doorbell ringed, but they weren't there. There was a letter, there was no address of where it was from. I opened it and I saw magazine letters, probably so I couldn't know their handwriting. The letter had a weird language nothing I've never seen before, I looked it up by putting in some of the words and it said that it was a ancient language that only the undead spoke. There was a weird picture at the bottom I looked at it then everything went black. I saw the images of the mansion again but more detailed. I started hearing voices, voices I have not heard in a long time. "Hey! Griffin are you okay?" I woke up and I saw my Betty and Pico. "Dude are you okay?" asked Pico. "You were laying on the ground with the front door wide open." explained Betty. "The front door was open? I was sure I closed it. Wait, the letter wheres the letter!?" I yelled. "What letter?" asked Pico. "The letter of the ancient language and the picture!" I yelled. At this time my friends were looking at me like I was insane. "We have to go back to the mansion!" I blurted. "What, the mansion! No, I am never going back there!" Yelled Betty "We have to, I don't know why we just have to." I said. "You don't even have a reason, I'm leaving!" argued Pico. Pico was walking out of the house fallowed by Betty. I had to say something or I don't know what horrible things would happen. "There are two other ghosts!" I yelled. "What!" asked Pico. "I went back into the haunted mansion by myself and I found three other skeletons and a crystal ball that showed me that Matthew was trying to help us. There were two other ghosts trying to kill us, we only killed one of them. I think the two other ghosts were the things that killed Ernie when he went back by himself." I explained. "Now your telling us!" yelled Betty. "I didn't want to tell you guys because I thought you'd do the same thing that Ernie did, and when I told Ernie he did exactly what I didn't want to happen." I explained. "So was Ernie just a test, why didn't you tell us too, then maybe we may have gone with Ernie and he would have been safer. What were you thinking!?" Questioned Betty. "I don't know, I just did I was just being stupid." I said. "Oh so now your saying that Ernie's death was just a mistake!?" Yelled Betty. After that Betty Stormed out of my house leaving Pico behind. Pico shrugged and I did back. "What should we do go get her?" asked Pico. "No I think we should just let her cool off for a little." I answered

Chapter Three: Another Nightmare
Pico and I were just waiting around because we new that Betty would end up coming back. As we both knew a couple hours after Betty left we heard a door bell ring from the front door. It was Betty, again we both knew she would come back. "Fine" said Betty. "Fine what?" I asked. "I'll go to the mansion with you guys. But we're not walking, it will take to long and someone will catch us." declared Betty. "Then how the heck are we gonna get there!?" I asked. "I have an idea, my dad has an extra car in the garage from when he was a teenager. He wouldn't know it was gone." suggested Pico. "That actually isn't a bad idea" said Betty. The only flaw of this plan is I don't know how to drive" said Pico. "Well, my dad let's me drive his car around my neighborhood when he's in the car with me." I said. "Okay then what are we waiting for?" asked Betty. As soon as we got into the car I started regretting my choice. I turned on the car and I regretted my choice even more. Somehow I backed out the driveway and I started driving and I was ready to jump out and run. I could not believe I was doing this, probably the stupidest choice of my life and maybe even my last. By that time I had a mix between an adrenaline rush and a panic attack. I don't know how but my foot stomped on the pedal by itself so I just tried to steer, it was probably the coolest but scariest moment of my life. Apparently there was a reason Pico's dad never used this car and he forgot to mention that detail to me. I tried stepping on the breaks but they wouldn't work. I told Betty and Pico what happened but I was so scared so all that came out of my mouth was "Tha thu beaks don't wak". Then I just yelled "jump out of the car!" and I was the first one out. After a couple of seconds I saw them jump out. They came over to me yelling and I could see Pico's hand start to clench up like he was ready to punch me in the nos as hard as he possibly could. "What the heck, are you insane!?" yelled Betty. "The breaks wouldn't work, and I have a good reason to punch you in the nose Pico, you almost got us killed!!!" I yelled. "Wait what, what did Pico do!?" yelled Betty again. "Well he forgot to mention the little detail that his dads car's breaks stopped working if you go too fast!!" I yelled. This time Betty was done she slapped us both across the face, call us insane idiotic lunatics, and the slapped us across the face again. But as me and Pico both knew she calmed herself again then we kept walking to the mansion. After a couple hours we saw the mansion this time we weren't going to be stupid and go through the most haunted place to get to the mansion. We did something even more stupid and went through the front door.

Chapter Four: Bad Decisions
I can't believe I did that, after I've already been here and I know that that was the stupidest thing I could have done. As soon as I went through that door we paid. There was a huge hole in the ground, Pico fell through but me and Betty caught our selves. As soon as he fell we blamed ourselves, we didn't know what to do. We were completely panicking until were heard Pico say "Hey, guys I'm down here and I'm alright, but I think my legs broken!" We could here the pain in his voice. "Alright, we'll be jump down" Said Betty. "No, You guys might get hurt to and we wont have anyone to help us get out" Said Pico. "Okay we'll find the stairs, and be there soon!" I yelled down. We explored the mansion even though we were already there before It was still a pretty long time ago. We found a door that I don't remember going through before. But still we went through, another really bad decision we made. Again as soon as we went through the door we paid. I fell through a vent then I heard screams of terror and pain. I knew what happened and I knew that I could do anything I was still falling through a vent. I fell into a dark room. It was lit with one candle at the corner. I could see the light seep through the crack on the bottom of the door. So I went through and let my guard down, another really bad decision. As I went through I saw Pico, I could see his bone out of his leg. I could puke right there. "Help,Me......" said Pico in a pain-filled, weak voice. "Okay I'm going to find something to cover the wound and cut off the blood to stop you from bleeding out." I said nervously. Luckily there was a cloth and rope in the room. I put the cloth on him and tied it on with the rope. I picked him up and put him on my shoulders. As I was walking through the dark hallways I could here something, something strange, it sounded like wind blowing but we were thirty feet underground and there wasn't any wind when we drove over. It sounded like it was behind me, right behind me. I looked back and there was nothing there. But I could still heard the wind right behind me. I looked behind me again but again no one was there.....Then I looked at Pico. He had blue eyes and a mouth that had fire in it. I dropped him immediately. He said "You thought you could get away with this, banishing one of our friends and just walking away! Then you come back again to try to banish anther one of us! No, if you want to kill me, your going to have to kill your friend too. I could kill Pico so I ran, but I knew I had to do at one point, but I couldn't right now.

Chapter Five: No Way Out
As I was dragging Pico across the hallway and hoping that he would not break loose from the ropes that I tied him up with. I was dragging him to really nowhere I did not know where to go. I was in such a point of shock that I just kept dragging him. I knew what I had to do, but I just could not do it. I dropped him and I gave up. I couldn't go any father. My body gave out. At that time I saw one of them in front of me. He rushed at me and I felt a sharp pain in my chest. My eyes started to close and I saw myself. I saw my body. But I was still there. I was a ghost. I saw Ernie and Betty around me. But I also saw Pico. I saw his body infected with the ghost. "You have to go back" said Betty. I knew I had to also. I pushed down at my lifeless body and I could see through my eyes again. But again I saw Pico. So yes I did it. It was the worst feeling I ever. When I got out of the mansion I felt something around me. It was something physical. I knew what it was but it wasn't something it was someone it was Betty and Ernie were still there thier souls were around me, but Pico's wasn't, Pico was clinged on with the ghost and couldn't be pulled off. He was now haunting the Haunted Mansion
