"Him? I don't know nor do I care." He looked over at Oliver, "What was it that took you to the graveyard?" He asked in a raspy voice the kid could have been summoned there by other forces for all he knew. He wasn't to worry about the fog he didn't feel he or the boy were in any harm.

He looked back t the TV, "Just follow your gut kid, he's your friend. Do you think the ghost got him?" He handed the kid his bowl and let a large burp out.

"I just think it's cool... at least, when it's not weird and spooky."

Normally, he didn't think of the graveyard as weird or spooky, either. He couldn't remember having come across any ghosts before. Now all he could think about was how that kid looked real but he also had an otherworldly feel to him. Ollie was certain that his new friend wasn't a ghost and he had grabbed him before he could be touched. If he was possessed, then he'd know. He would have seen it happen! But then, he barely knew him so... maybe he wouldn't know. He frowned, not liking that weird feeling of being sure of something but having a slight niggling doubt in the back of his mind. (So how sure was he, really?)

Taking the bowl from Ivar, he blew out a breath, shook his head, and turned away. Some help Ivar was!

"No," he said. "Even if it did, it didn't seem like a mean one."

Travis got off the phone with his Aunt, she was angry he didn't come home or call. He wasn't used to having a crazy Aunt to report to and he was sure Aunt No wasn't used to have a child to look after. But they were going to have to get used to it until parents show up or he turns 18. He was hoping for the first one he is sure his parents are still alive and not dead. He would feel it if they were. So he had hope.

Walking to Olli, "Ah, she is pissed and wants me home." He was hoping Ivar would give him a ride seeing ass the fog was creepy. He didn't want to ask outright, he had just met the man. It would be different if they knew each other for some time. "Do you think it is safe to go out?" He almost wanted to go back to the graveyard before home. To see if he could find his ghost and get the warning out of him.

"Oh. Okay."

Ollie glanced over at Ivar. It wasn't like he had to ask permission or anything, so he wiped his hands against his jeans and nodded his head toward the front door.

"I'll take you back. On my bike."

He didn't answer the question about whether it was safe or not--he didn't even know if it was. But there was definitely a thick and nasty fog blanketing the area. It almost looked like nothing was outside when he peered out the window. He glanced again at Ivar, also hoping he'd intervene and offer Travis a ride but he didn't.

"Come on. Let's go." He grabbed onto Travis' arm and pulled him along with him toward the door.

Making a face "Uh, about your bike..." He trailed off. He didn't want to say anything about it getting stolen at the graveyard, it in case he didn't want Ivar to know. His hand was grabbed and he followed Oliver.

Iver didn't even bother to look at them nor pay attention. He was a big boy he could take care of himself both of them.

"Ugh." Ollie pulled a slight face. Yeah, his bike. He slanted a sideways glance back over at Ivar but he had nothing to say about it. He seemed to be ignoring the pair of them and concentrating on whatever was on the TV. Something in the news. Ollie let out a sigh and pulled Travis out with him.

The last thing he wanted was to go right back out into the fog but since he was with Travis and Travis needed to get back...

"We should swing back by the graveyard," Ollie said. "On the way back. Is your place... er your aunt's place, is it by the graveyard?"

Ivar was in his own world he knew the kid wanted a ride he just didn't feel like giving him one so he just ignored them. It's not like the kid bothered to ask.

He was pulled outside, and Ollie seemed annoyed. It made Travis feel bad that he was going out because of him. If they never went out they wouldn't have to go back into it. But they kinda had no choice. He wasn't about to try his luck with his Aunt No.

"Oh, yeah her place is passed the graveyard the opposite way to your place. So we should pass it to get there."

"Do we WANT to though?" Ollie mused. They hustled out of there last time and now they wanted to go back in? Well... The bike was the best transportation Ollie had so... He didn't know, though. The bike might just be lost forever. It had just disappeared so the fact that it might be where he last left it wasn't likely. Probably not even ghosts, he told himself. Probably just stupid bullies.

As they approached the graveyard, Ollie's bravery began to wane.

"M-maybe I don't need it after all," he started, looking at the entrance to the graveyard with trepidation. He was just about to suggest they go around it to get to Travis' aunt's house when he heard the sound of a shriek. Or a shout. But... it... sounded like a girl? Ollie looked over at Travis.

"Did you hear that?"

Travis just looked at Ollie, not answering but his face spoke for him. The look of fear and guilt cover his face he wanted to see his ghost again but he was still freaked out about the whole thing. It was the fastest way to get home so they made the walk, as they neared the graveyard goosebumps erupted and for good reason.

A look of panic covered his face, "Yeah, but what is it?" He turned his head so he could listen better. Was it someone in danger? Some crazy stuff had been going on so it could be plausible.

He could see flashlights in the graveyard off in the distance. He couldn't make out what was being said but he could hear voices echoing in the night. "You see that?" He asked Ollie about the lights.

"...yeah."

Ollie saw it but he didn't know that he wanted to. Were they ghost lights? Ollie heard about those. Nibbling the inside of his lip, he tried to square back his shoulders and watched the lights and voices for a long moment. Then he blinked and tilted his head.

"Wait," he said, lifting a hand. "They sound... familiar..."

But even as he was saying that, a light suddenly flashed in his face and he put up both hands.

"H-hey!"

As the lights burned his retinas, he tried to get a better look at the people standing in front of them. Then his mouth formed a small o. He recognized the girl, at least.

"Iris?" He put his hand up over his eyes. So the guy had to be... "Sam?"

    Iris Jones

"Oliver!?" Suprised to see him and the new kid. She tried to hold back her excitement, they had been talking about talking to him and now this was their chance. He was shocked to see them here out so late and in the dark. It's wasn't safe Iris knew it but she had Sam and his gun so she felt pretty safe. Now that she thought about it these two are lucky Sam didn't shoot them.

"What are you doing out here?" She asked with some attitude she crossed her arms and tilted her head to the right. "Hmmm" she raised her brow.

She looked at Sam if it wasn't dark out he could see that her cheeks were beaming red. Now that she was in front of the new kids she crumbled, she was no longer confident, she wanted Sam to ask. Seconds ago it seemed so easy to be like "Hi, Travis you want to be our friend, and oh yeah Oliver can join too." She stepped closer to Sam like he would protect her from embarrassing herself in front of Travis.

Slyly she slides her arm around his and his locking arms with him she wears a bright smile.

Samuel had the gun pointed at the blur in the fog but when their voices reached them and they cleared the fog, he realized that it was just their classmates. Knowing that, he slowly lowered his hunting rifle. The safety wasn't even on so if he had a twitchy trigger finger, he might've just added a new ghost to the graveyard. Realizing that, he half smiled at the two boys, letting out a somewhat nervous laugh.

"Oh yeah, hey guys." His cheeks burned as Iris slid her arm around his. "What're you doing out here?"

"Ollie is walking me home but he came here looking for his bike." Travis had no idea who he was talking to but they knew Ollie, so the must be from the school. "We were here after school and his bike went missing." he shrugged his shoulders and looked at Ollie then back at the others. Iris was clinging to Sam it made it look like they were a couple witch sucked Sam had bids, oh well she is cute but he isn't that kinda guy to still someone's girlfriend.

They hadn't found Ollie's bike but they were found Sam and Iris, "What are you guys doing here? And what's with a gun? You hunting?" Not every day you run into a classmate with a hunting rifle out in the dark with his girlfriend?

Travis wondered, were they going to kill someone?! He started to worry a little. He really didn't think they could outrun bullets.

"Yep," Samuel said with a slight smirk. Was the new guy scared of his gun? It seemed like city slicker types always were. At least, that's what Sam's dad said. The gun was lowered now, though, and Sam discreetly clicked the safety back into place. Just in case.

Then Sam tilted his head and eyed what looked like a bike resting against a grave. "Wait. You mean that bike?"

How could they miss it? It was right there!

Travis gave him a wry smile, great they were hunting let just hope not people. "What?" He looked over, "It wasn't there I swear." Travis looked at Ollie for validation. The ghost must have brought it back. Not like these two would know anything about the ghost, or would they?

"That's it right Ollie?"

It would be much faster to get home now and for Ollie to get all the way back to his home. It was really nice of Oliver to walk him home he was being so selfless he would have to go home alone. Maybe his Aunt would drive Ollie back. Which would be a long shot seeing that she was pissed at him being out. But she wasn't as heartless as Ivar making kids walk in the creepy fog. She might even know what was going on.

"What are you guys hunting?"
