Story Title: Ghosthunters
Chapter Sixteen
Amelia was still relaxing on the bed when she heard something, she woke up and looked around but she saw nothing. She went to the sitting room and there she met them.
"Hi Amelia. Nice to meet you once again." Rose said as she gave a smirk.
"Do you remember me or do you need an introduction?" Mrs. Walton asked.
"What are you ghosts doing here? How did you even find me?" She asked moving away from them.
"Oh! It's quite simple. We asked Tessa." Mrs. Walton answered her.
Tessa? Amelia thought. "That's not possible! Tessa would never do such a thing."
"I see you trust her so much that's why you can't believe she'll do such a thing." Mrs. Walton said turning to face Rose. "What was that technique she said she was using again?"
"You don't suspect whom you trust." Rose and Mrs. Walton chorused bursting into laughter.
"to be honest, I'll say you have got a strong mind to believe a ghost." Rose said sarcastically.
Amelia shook her head in disbelief. "Tessa would never do such a thing to me....She loves me."
Rose and Mrs. Walton stopped laughing at the same time then they stared at Amelia before bursting into laughter again.
"You are a fool Amelia." Rose told her walking towards her. "But anyways, we are not here for that...we are actually here for something else."
"Like what?" Amelia asked.
"You." Mrs. Walton answered. She carried a chair and threw it at Amelia, Amelia quickly ducked as she ran away from them but every where she turned, they were there. How on earth was she supposed to deal with ghost?
"Listen, Just let us kill you and we will go our separate ways." Rose said as she appeared beside Amelia carrying her by the neck making the poor girl gasp for breathe. Amelia tried her best to struggle but she couldn't. "Do it." Rose commanded.
Mrs. Walton was about piercing Amelia with a knife when the sound of the door opening stop her.
"Let her go!" A voice said as Carlos, Xen, Tamara and Norman entered with glasses that helps them see ghosts. Carlos had the exterminator in his hands while Xen, Tamara and Norman had swords in their hands.
Rose threw Amelia making her lose consciousness as she hit her head on the fridge.
"Who do we have here?" Mrs. Walton said. "Xen, Is that you?" she asked. "You have grown so big and handsome. Your father must be very proud of you."
Xen smirked. "It's time for you to return to the pit hole where you came out from."
"And who's gonna make me?" Mrs. Walton asked looking at the group. "You guys?" she laughed.
"Less talking...." Xen said as he turned to face his friends. "...Now!" He shouted as they all rushed at the ghosts. They were having hard time fighting them before they kept disappearing and appearing.
"It's hard fighting them like this." Tamara complained.
Carlos came forward. "Don't worry, a scientist needs to be prepared." He brought out something from his pocket. He unwrapped it and pour tiny bits into his palm. The substance looked like powder and immediately he blew it, the powder-form-substance filled everywhere and the ghosts appeared.
"i'd love to know what that is." Tamara said with a smile as she took her sword and faced Rose while Xen and Norman faced Mrs. Walton. Carlos was left standing closer to Amelia and waiting in case any ghost is caught and needs to be exterminated.
Xen and Norman fought with Mrs. Walton and because of the substance that was sprayed, it made it harder for the ghosts to disappear. It was easier for Xen to slash Mrs. Walton with his sword that was filled with a chemical that doesn't affect humans but has a large effects on ghosts. Mrs. Walton's arm that was slashed started disappearing gradually.
Rose knew if she remained here, she would die. She looked at Tamara and gave her a kick making Tamara fall straight to the ground. Feeling safe, Rose left the sitting room and disappeared while Mrs. Walton was left battling with Xen and Norman.
"Carlos, the exterminator!" Norman said as Carlos came to join them with the exterminator. He had a huge smile on his face as he switched on the exterminator.
"Time to test you baby!" Carlos said as everyone left just Mrs. Walton, Carlos and the exterminator were left. Slowly, the exterminator pulled Mrs. Walton closer to it's opening even when she tried to pull back, Carlos increased the force of the exterminator and the force pulled Mrs. Walton in.
A loud cry was heard as everyone noticed the vapor-like-substance that was coming out of the exterminator.
"WOOOOOOWWW!" Carlos said as he switched off the exterminator. "That's what I'm talking about." he said kissing the exterminator. "You are work of science...baby." Everyone laughed except XEn.
"Let's not celebrate yet. We've just taken down one out of thousands of thousands ghosts out there, it's too early to celebrate."
"What a kill-joy!" Tamara said as everybody stopped cheering.
"So what about her?" Norman asked pointing to Amelia who is still unconscious.
Everyone looked at Xen wondering what his suggestion would be. "We'll bring her with us till we are able to find out who she is and what the ghosts wants from her." Xen answered.
"wait! She sees ghosts right?" Carlos asked. Tamara nodded. "That means she is going to be one of us."
"I don't think so. We have no idea who she is...taking her in and making her one of us isn't a good thing." Tamara said.
Carlos looked at Amelia as she was being over the shoulders by the Norman. "There's something strange about her....I can feel it."
"That's just your scientific system telling you that you are attracted to her." Tamara answered.
Norman laughed. "Good one Tamara."
"Ha..ha...very funny." Carlos said. "I know what I'm saying."
They took Amelia to their hideout where Norman placed her on the bed.
