Chapter 37 - The Dark Witch Association

Lydia became speechless when Isabel said she can't tell her who the killer is.

"How do you expect me to help you out when you are refusing to tell me who the killer is" commented Lydia after taking a deep breath to calm herself.

"You don't have to worry about them, as long as you have your friends to lend you a hand, it shouldn't be a problem for you" said Isabel.

"There is no way that I am going to endanger my friend's life so if you don't want to say a thing about it, then forget about me helping you out" replies Lydia firmly.

"Since you want to know, then I have no choice than to tell you. The ones responsible for their death and my death are those from the dark witch association and they are in the process of performing a ritual at midnight, so if you want to stop them, it has to be tonight" said Isabel with a frown.

"Wait, what ritual did you think they are performing" asked Lydia in surprise when she heard Isabel mention about them performing a ritual.

"I think it has to do with the recaination of their old master and now that they have all they needed to bring him back to life" replied Isabel.

"I see. So where do you think they would be performing the ritual" asked Lydia.

"There is an old building when leaving town that has been abandoned for years, that is the place they have chosen to perform the ritual" replied Isabel.

"Thanks for your help" said Lydia before walking out of the restroom.

Now that she had information about the killer, Lydia decided to go meet her mother straight away but on getting to her office, she discovered that her mother is already out to conduct a lecture so she decided to head to Mr. McCray

Seeing that his office is not locked, Lydia let out a breath of relief before knocking on the door until she was permitted to go in.

"you should be taking lectures by now so be fast with what you have to say and head back" said Mr. McCray without looking at her.

"well, the ghost appeared to me and she is a student of St. Patrick high school and she doesn't seem to be the only one that has been murdered" replies Lydia.

Hearing that she has finally had an encounter with the ghost, Mr. McCray quickly put what he was doing to the side as his focus is now on her.

"So did she tell you who the killer is and what are they planning to do" he asked.

"she said the killer happened to be the dark witch association and the reason why they have been killing students is to resurrect their master" replied Lydia.

"I knew it has to be the doing of those witches but who would have thought that their motive is to revive their master" said Mr. McCray in a carefree manner before sending Mr. and Mrs. Davis a text.

But just then Mr. McCray remembered something and quickly put his cell phone away before thinking.

'Could it be that they were trying to resurrect him' thought Mr. McCray suddenly remember someone from the dark witch association?

"Did the ghost tell you who they are resurrecting" ask Mr. McCray as he wants to confirm the master's identity?

"no she didn't, she only told me to try and stop them" reply Lydia while shaking her head.

"It has to be him" muttered Mr. McCray with his fists clenched together.

"who are you talking about Mr. McCray" asked Lydia.

"the fourth dark master" replies Mr. McCray with a frown before asking hurriedly.

"where are they performing the ritual for his resurrection".

"The ritual would be performed at midnight in an abandoned building when leaving the town" replied Lydia.

After getting all the information that he needed, Mr. McCray dismissed Lydia from his office before calling her father.

"we'll be heading out tonight".

It was a simple message but the other party already knew what they are about to do.

"Should I also get that boy involved" muttered Mr. McCray before disagreeing with the idea?

Meanwhile, back at the hall Abel has been waiting for Lydia to return since he guesses the ghost most have spoken to her but the problem now is that it has been long since she left and she still hasn't returned which is getting him worried and plan to excuse himself from the classroom to go look for her but that's when she came in with a worried look on her face.

Watching as she made her way to a spare seat, Abel decided to asked her what happened. Right after the teacher was done with his lecture, he left and Abel thought he should ask her but before he could, Mr. McCray came into the hall to conduct his lecture like he usually does but surprisingly to them, He only came to inform them that he won't be avoided and that they are free to go home.

Which makes Abel wonder if something big has happened and the only for him to find out is to ask Lydia who still looks out of place.

"Hey, Lydia what's going on" whispered Abel to Lydia who seen to be lost in her thought.

"This is not the right place to speak" said Lydia before turning her gaze away.

Right after everyone begins to leave the hall, Abel approach Lydia and they left the hall together to a quiet place where begins to tell him about what the ghost told her and how Mr. McCray has reacted to it with concern as to who they were planning to revive.

"so what are we supposed to do" asks Abel after he has been told all that he needs to hear.

"well, Mr. McCray instructed me to leave it to him that he will handle the whole thing" replied Lydia.
