Rebecca Stone - A Reintroduction PT8 (Patreon)

"Becks, there's no time left for your hocus pocus bullsh--"

"J-Just give me a moment! Trust me!" Rebecca went back to focus on her chant. The smell of ash and smoke filled the building, wood cracking and breaking as kindling fell onto the barrier markings protecting the office. Soon, they were face to face with the ghosts once more.

"BECKS!?" One leant down, almost caressing Elizabeth's face as Rebecca opened her eyes and stared directly into the revenants.

"We want to help you!" she said. "We know who you're after! He's still here! Look into my eyes! You'll see we had nothing to do with your deaths! It was all him!" She knew the barriers she set up wouldn't hold for long, the now burning building becoming a hunting ground for the revenants once more. "Come on! If you want your revenge, you'd wanna check you have the right people right?!"

The ghosts quickly grabbed Rebecca's face, pulling it close to theirs as they gazed into the woman's eyes, peering into her soul. Rebecca squirmed and thrashed around as Elizabeth looked on in horror. Only for their cuffs to shatter and Rebecca to collapse forward. "U-Ugh..."

"What happened?!" Elizabeth reached over to steady the Witch. "I thought they were going to suck out your soul or something!"

"N-No...no..they were seeing...if I was telling the truth. C-Come on..we need to go. They're hunting him now...he shouldn't be getting far."

Elizabeth helped Rebecca to her feet, pulling her along the smoke-filled hallway, coughing as she tried to cover her mouth and nose. The screams of Darren echoing throughout the hotel. "Ghost whisperer...eh?" They trudged down the once grand staircase, reaching the foyer. They were almost out!

Until the body of Darren crashed through the ceiling above them, landing with a crash of debris around his body.
