The Apparition Man - Part Eighty- Five#

Chapter Twenty- Two- Part Eighty Five #1

Traveling through the blackened abyss to the unknown, I felt by body fall hard.2

Scrapping my skin as the black hole, a White light illuminated showing the cold room around me.3

I had fallen on the White gritty tiles, and as I looked around me, my eyes adjusting; I realized that the room I was in was a bathroom. A cold, hollow bathroom, were even my breathing seemed to echo through the walls.4

I felt the blood drain from my torn flesh, seeping through the cracks as I pulled myself together, attempting to bring myself to my knees.5

I could hear voices, voices of Two females talking. One was more mature; she had a deeper voice, while the other as more cold, more blunt. I could not quite make out what they were saying, but I gathered my their tones that they were having a some what heated conversation.6

I managed to bring myself painfully to my knees, and then to my feet, wiping the blood from my palms over my pants. Quietly I edged forwards towards a door, as the voices in the room go louder.7

“Do not touch the white button,” I heard the mature woman say.”8

I pressed my face against the door, causing a creak.9

Immediately I pushed myself away from the door, watching as she turned around.10

“I understand,” the colder woman said watching, her eyes darting across the room.11

Breathing heavily I crept back thinking of a place to hide.12

“Good, I will be back in no time, remember for emergency's and you will be fine.”13

The mature woman walked towards the door, swiping what looked like a credit card down a slot and walked out side the open door, closing it softly behind her.14

Slowly but carefully, trying not to breath I edged my way back towards the door, pressing my fingers against it. This time, my efforts were strong, as the door swung open, and I lost balance falling flat on the floor. My wounds screamed in agony.15

The girl looked towards me, her eyes flashing towards the door.16

I stopped breathing for a few seconds, until I could feel my heart slowing down... then.17

“Kerry is that you?”18

I was saved my the bell, or something much similar.19


I let out a few gasps of air before my natural breathing state was stable, and attempted to crawl back into the bathroom. 20

When I saw a young boy; his body pressed tightly against her back, his hands holding her shoulders as if massaging them, to comfort her. He had a look on his face, or neither happiness nor malicious; it was a fair cross between the two and reminded me of the Mona Lisa.21

Could this be the Kerry she was asking for?22

“Kerry I can feel you,” she whispered as the boy moved back. His transparent body coming into view.23

A ghost... I chocked back, trying not to feel fearful or frightened by what I was seeing, as it was to be expected. Of course he was a ghost, I had not seen him the first time I had peeked through the door. If there was ever a time when my heart felt like exploding out of my chest this was it.24

Slowly I crept back like a caterpillar; hoping to god that the ghost would not see me.25

Suddenly the girl stood up. 26

It was obvious the girl could not see him, as she swung her hands around in the air, right through his body. Then when she finally stopped swinging her arms through the air, her eyes returned, as if looking deep into my soul.27

“Christopher.”28

I heard a voice... it was a masculine voice, and yet her lips were moving.29

“Christopher wake up.”30

The room went blurry, as everything around me began to blacken and fade away. 31

My eyes began to water as they came to the light once again.32

I opened my eyes wide, to see Oliver staring sympathetically in my direction.33

It had been a dream.34

I jumped back, banging my head against the top of the bed, my hand brushing past hi, my body jolted, sending shivers right down my spine. I felt sickly.35

“Christopher I think we need to talk.”
