Lightning Doesn't Strike Twice!

Chapter 10

A snowball hit my face.

Beck, did you just have to hit me with a snowball?

You seemed to be daydreaming hard there I had to wake you up heh.

Daydreaming Don't you mean night-dreaming technically?

Whatever I just couldn't let you be so spacey whahaha.

So what's on your mind? I was just thinking how fast the time flies. Back to all the times it snowed as a kid.

I understand I feel the same and soon before we know it we will be adults in the real world.

Ha, what do you think is so-called real? Rolling her eyes at me. You would know a night-dreamer! Well, my brother is home early he will take you home.

See you at school tomorrow.

Oh and Beck, would you want to walk in the morning to school? Are you crazy; in the snow? It is much more pretty than the fresh snow at sunrise. Ha, you are too sentimental Kaysi.

Yeah, why not, we need to stay fit even in the wintertime. See you at 7 o'clock then. That sounds great!

After meeting up with Beck. I told her, that I asked Micah to join us too.

When we arrived at Micah's house she wasn't standing outside for use like normal. 

Hey Beck, do you notice she is still missing? It is odd for her not to have been outside right about now. 

She is usually early Kaysi.

Yeah, I remember you telling me, as you guys normally go together. Should we go up to her house and see if she is there?

Yeah and then if not we can just go to school to see if she just had a head start ahead of us. Okay, so let's hurry. 

Knock, knock, knock. Mrs. Monk is Micah home? No, she has already gone to school you just missed her.

She is late for her normal time frame even now. I guess that is why we didn't cross paths.

She felt like was running late so she took a shortcut threw the park Micah's, Mom said.

We didn't find her so we started, walking in this fresh snow following behind some of the prints. The sunlight is pretty, isn't it?

Yeah, it is. See Beck, I am not just a dreamer.

Nah… You must just be rubbing off on me, she teased, elbow-bumping me.

Like I told you she has been dodging us lately. And now heading to school without us something must have been up.

Kaysi, I told you she's okay she must have thought she was late cause we are normally early.

If you think so. Maybe she might be trying to catch up to us thinking we missed her.

Well, let's head threw the park then follow her shortcut and try to catch up. 

We didn't see Micah there so we moved on to school hoping to meet up. Going into school there were new guards placed everywhere.

There had been an attack on a possible missing girl in our school.

I worried about Micah being hurt and we still had not found her.

When they posted the missing girl's poster the next day with an explanation, it was safe to say Micah wasn't the one. The girl was found in the park the morning before. 

Somehow both me and Beck didn't see her.

They say she wasn't killed but had amnesia and they said it wasn't the first attack this year.

Could it be more soulless or maybe Micah? 

This was not the same park as Spencer Ball Park where Becky almost got hurt.

This was the City park it was quite large with traits and many people that cross through there. 

I found Micah a couple of days later.

After talking to Beck about this strange feeling I kept having.

Beck and I agreed to follow her at least. We would report to each other if anything odd happened. We didn't want to ask her upfront and accuse her. Maybe she was a witness but she was still our friend.

Later on we found she must have been there at least when police would come to our school asking her questions. Someone in the area had spotted her around the same time. Odd she must have gone much earlier than us then?

This is the third week into the investigation another girl went missing and then later was found dead in a different area very close to the park.

That is when her behavior started to get suspicious. A avoiding us. Even skipping classes.

I couldn't believe my long-time friend, could hurt someone. 

She was always so good-natured, calm, and kind.

What else could I think? She was, in the middle of it all this somehow?

We decided to ask the baby maybe she might know something or what to do in this situation. But the answer I got just made me ask more questions.

We were being told more spirits have been popping out lately and someone may have summoned them. This was the first that if heard could call them.

What can we do, Asked Beck. That day we chose to confront her face-to-face.

When we left for her house her mom said she had gone to the store to get some items.

Sure enough, the car was missing, but when we looked down we saw that there was blood on the steps.
