"and that was when we realized that she'd asked us to drop her off....At The Graveyard."

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Mon May 21, 2012 1:49 am

Ryan just smiled, always having liked this one.

by **Byrna Cooper** » Mon May 21, 2012 8:24 pm

"So, spooky enough for you?" bear asked, smiling and passing him a toasty marshmallow.

by **Haley Crusek** » Mon May 21, 2012 9:02 pm

Haley smirked slightly and in the quiet after the story, snapped several tree branches around camp with her tk for eerie effect.

by **Jason Black** » Mon May 21, 2012 9:32 pm

Jason tensed up.

"Did... did anyone else hear that?"

by **Christine Bowen** » Tue May 22, 2012 12:07 am

"No, I didn't hear anything." Christie replied, trying to mess with him.

by **Haley Crusek** » Tue May 22, 2012 12:10 am

"Quit trying to scare us, Jason," Haley sighed.

by **Victoria Valentine** » Tue May 22, 2012 1:23 am

"Besides, if these woods were haunted, I'd have said so when we got here," Victoria said, stretching.

by **Byrna Cooper** » Tue May 22, 2012 8:07 pm

"Ghosts can wander pretty far, though.." bear noted, smiling.

by **Haley Crusek** » Tue May 22, 2012 8:49 pm

And on cue, Haley made some more branches snap ominously.

by **Jason Black** » Wed May 23, 2012 12:59 pm

"Now I know I heard that."

by **Christine Bowen** » Wed May 23, 2012 5:57 pm

"We should split up and go investigate." Christy with a grin.

by **Jason Black** » Wed May 23, 2012 6:39 pm

"And get picked off one by one?" Jason asked a little nervously, "No thank you."

by **Byrna Cooper** » Wed May 23, 2012 9:08 pm

"I'm sure they will calm down, as long as we keep telling stories," Bear noted.

by **Haley Crusek** » Wed May 23, 2012 9:19 pm

"Or it will just make them angrier," Haley smirked.

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Thu May 24, 2012 7:21 am

"Could think we're not taking them seriously," Ryan agreed, nodding sagely.

by **Jason Black** » Thu May 24, 2012 2:22 pm

"Well we don't want them thinking that," Jason answered, eyes darting around the tree line. He was making this way too easy.

by **Kay Haddock** » Thu May 24, 2012 2:31 pm

"There's no such thing as ghosts..."

by **Victoria Valentine** » Thu May 24, 2012 2:38 pm

Victoria just laughed. And laughed. ANd laughed.

by **Christine Bowen** » Thu May 24, 2012 4:07 pm

"Or changing lead into gold?" Christie teased.

by **Thomas Bowen** » Thu May 24, 2012 8:08 pm

"Yeah, I think we've proven that exists."

Tommy smirked at his sister.

by **Haley Crusek** » Thu May 24, 2012 9:57 pm

Haley gave Jason a telekinetic poke in the shoulder--like someone tapping it to get his attention.

by **Jason Black** » Fri May 25, 2012 12:14 pm

Jason practically jumped right out of his skin.

"Something just poked me!"

by **Brigid Plunder** » Fri May 25, 2012 12:23 pm

"So zap it?" Brigid said, quirking a brow.

by **Jason Black** » Fri May 25, 2012 12:48 pm

"You can't zap a ghost!"

by **Christine Bowen** » Fri May 25, 2012 1:11 pm

"Have you tried?"

by **Jason Black** » Fri May 25, 2012 2:48 pm

"It's invisible!"

by **Haley Crusek** » Fri May 25, 2012 5:07 pm

"You're just letting your imagination run wild, dude, calm down" she smirked.

by **Thomas Bowen** » Fri May 25, 2012 7:34 pm

Tommy smiled, tending to a marshmallow.

by **Haley Crusek** » Fri May 25, 2012 9:09 pm

And that was when Tommy got a sharp tap on the shoulder as well. Haley continued to stare at the fire innocently, looking bored but inside still quite entertained by the whole thing.

by **Thomas Bowen** » Fri May 25, 2012 11:42 pm

Tommy jumped and turned reflexively, before turning back to Haley with a smirk.

"Ooooooo..." he said, in a low, ghostly tone.

by **Haley Crusek** » Fri May 25, 2012 11:46 pm

Shhhhhh.... she thought to him, a slight smile on her face. I'm not doing anything. And I sure as hell can't do what I'm doing with you right now

by **Thomas Bowen** » Fri May 25, 2012 11:58 pm

So, chalk it up to a ghost, then?

He fiddled with a can of cola, popping the top and taking a sip.

by **Haley Crusek** » Sat May 26, 2012 12:09 am

Must be...

by **Thomas Bowen** » Sat May 26, 2012 12:19 am

He then popped off the tab from the can, rubbed it in his fingers, and then quietly tossed it in the campfire.

After a few moments, the fire began giving off an eerie green light which lasted for about ten seconds.

Oooooooo.....

by **Christine Bowen** » Sat May 26, 2012 10:33 pm

"Did you see that?" Christie asked, feigning surprise "What was that in the fire!"

by **Ryan Gabriel** » Sun May 27, 2012 12:39 am

Ryan just chuckled, shifting closer to Bear and slipping his arm around her while the kids all bantered. "It's good to watch, isn't it," he murmured.

by **Byrna Cooper** » Sun May 27, 2012 12:46 am

Bear nodded, snuggling against his side.

"It's good to just have some calm fun with the students.. And sneaking in some special time with you is a bonus."
