Beyond the Grave: Chapter 4

Hyunjin POV

Good Lord! I can't find some peace and quiet around here. If its not my friends, it's the other ghost in this house. All I want to do is draw and paint in 10 minuets of quiet. My favorite past time. I used to be one of the best painters of the 18th century. I painted everything and anything. I specialized in royal portraits. So good in fact, I became part of the court. Until the Queen consort wanted to bed me and I refused. I was framed with Treason. She set me up to make it look like I was trying to bed her, she said No, then told the king. I was ... executed ... a few days later. It was almost instant that I came back. Walking around the castle, trying to figure out what happened. It took me a few hours to realize I was dead and not dreaming. I finally made it into my room to find the Queen ... weeping. Mourning my loss. The audacity.

It took me a long time to make it to this Manor. The year was 1926 and San Fran was still cleaning up after the earthquake and alcohol was still very much illegal. The structure of the home was absolutely impeccable. The Manor had some force to it. I never believed in the supernatural before moving in. Since, how could any of us really deny it. I know that sounds crazy because I am literally a ghost but Demons, Vampires, and Werewolves. Plus a bunch of other magical beings. Not a chance. I can't believe, I used to live along side them without even knowing it.

I go to set up my easel along with my paint when I hear someone coming in the front door. 'I swear if these kids are coming in here again, Ill scream.' I think to myself. Oh. It's the realtor and our new occupants... woah. They are ... angelic, more than beautiful. I.. can't really take my eye off them.

The one takes off like a bat out of hell up the stairs while the other walks around with the realtor. I follow them as they walk through the house. The realtor asks some questions that got an interesting answer. "Uh. A new start and pretty desperate." Desperate aye. 'What are you running from?' I think as I walk with her into the sun room. She's walking toward the garden, which is Changbin's safe space. She's just so fascinating. There is something about both of them that feels magnetic. Is... Is she looking at me? 'Holy crap! What do I do? Why isnt she running? She's definitely staring at me.' Thank god her friend walked in and I was able to walk back into the parlor. "...What are you looking at?" "Oh you know. Just one of our roommates."

She saw me! I got to tell the others. They will never believe me. I make my way up the stairs and to the attic. Where I accidentally slammed the door. "GUYS" I scream "Hyunjin. They have been in this house for less than 10 minuets we cant scare them away now." Christopher complains "They don't look like lovers. I'm sure they are just friends." Minho says "She didn't go into my garden did she Jinnie?" Changbin asked "She saw me and didn't freak out!" I say "What? Are you sure?" Seungmin ask "I think hes right" Jisung interjects "I overheard them outside saying they wouldn't move." "Oh." Jeongin cuts in "Hopefully they will stay. And they are nice." "Beautiful. They are the most beautiful women I have ever seen." I say. "Here we go. Jisung confirm or deny." Seaungmin says. "I only saw the top of their heads so I don't know." he responds "Oi. Hyunjin. Did you find out anything about them?" Felix asked "Just that they are starting over and moved in here because they are desperate." "Alrighty then. Looks like they are going to stay forever Chris." Jisung says getting up "I'm going to go check them out and see what Hyunjin is talking about." "I'll go with you!" Jeongin says "Okay but-" Chris was cut off by them slamming the door on their way out "- Slam the door."

Christopher POV

Changbin POV

WHY AND HOW DID SHE GET INTO MY GARDEN!?

Beyond the Grave: Chapter 3

Percy POV

This house is something special. There is definitely something in this place, but I don't know if it is good or bad. I feel a weird magnetic pull. Like I'm supposed to be here.

"So. What is the situation with this house? Why is a historical manor, that is so beautiful by the way, so cheap?" Thee asked. The realtor looked hesitant and like she was trying to come up with something cleaver. "No matter what you say, we will still buy the house. It's to good to pass up." I reassure her. "It's haunted and weird things happen." She says so bluntly "I don't think they are bad but nobody stays long because of them." "Have people died here?" I ask as we walk up to the door. Stained glass french doors?! Oh my. Based on the front doors, I already know the inside will be amazing. "The home was owned by one family for a long time up until 2007. So we don't know much history on the house. Nobody really knows what happened to the family. The manor fell into the market and my company scooped it up. Been trying to get someone to live here ever since." She says

That will be a good mystery to figure out. We walk through the house and just like I thought, it is a steal. There is a sitting room to the left and a parlor to the right. The living room is right in front of us with stained glass on about every window. "This is the first floor. Everything you see comes with home. If you don't want it, you may get rid of it." The realtor says as Athena takes off up the stairs. "Holy shit Percy! This house is already furnished." She yelled. I turn to the realtor... It's like she knows what I am going to say. "The last family left a lot and most of this is from the original family." "It's fine that this is all here but why...?" "...Again spooky stuff." "Fair enough." I say as we walk through the house into the dining room, that is connected to the living room. There is a beautiful sun room off the dining area. "So with all the info I just gave you guys and you still want to live here? Why?..." "Uh. A new start and pretty desperate" I say as I walk towards the door in the sun room, looks like it goes off into the backyard? "What does this door go to?" I ask trying to change the subject. "Oh that is the garden." She says walking away.

Just as I'm about to follow her I see a man staring at me in the reflection. He is beautiful. Shoulder length black hair and, pale, but gorgeous face. I turn to see if he is standing in the room with me and sure enough there is nobody there. I start walking toward the opening that connects the parlor to the sun room and Athena makes her way in. "Earth to Percy! We have been calling for you. The realtor needs us to sign for the house... What are you looking at?" "Oh you know. Just one of our roommates." I say following her into the dining room that is connected to the kitchen where the realtor is.

Once we sign the papers the realtor gives us the blue prints to the house and a welcome packet. It has what is around the area and emergency numbers. "Here are your keys. Do you have any questions?" She asked, making her way to the front door. "No. I think we are good." Thee says "And we have your card if we need anything." "Amazing. Well welcome home." Right when she says that, a door slams upstairs and she looks absolutely terrified... Of the noise or our reaction to it. "Awesome." I say with a reassuring look to ease her worry "Trust me. We've been through worse."

With that, she is out the door and we are alone, physically, in our new house. "Lets go look at the rest of the house.." I say but Thee stops me. Dragging me back into the kitchen. "FIRST! We toast with some cheap box wine to break it in!" She says as she pulls a couple of glasses out of the cupboard, wash them out quick and we take a big swig and BANG! ".... That was another door." Thee says "Lets go investigate and find out who is haunting this house." I say as we run up the stairs off the dining room. Drinks all in hand.

Hyunjin POV

"GUYS!" I scream as I make my way into the attic, slamming the door by accident. "She saw me! And didn't freak out!"

Sorry this is a short chapter and kind of boring, its more like a filler. It gets better I promise!!!

Beyond the Grave: Chapter 2

Christopher POV

294 years I have been in this house. Why you many ask? I don't really know. I felt like a magnet being pulled to this Manor. Before I got here I had been wondering around alone for 39 years. It was a blessing to find people again. Or rather dead... people. Like me. Having a conversation and really learning about this 'afterlife'. Has been really nice. How most people are scared of 'ghost' but fortunately we had a really great family living here for a long time. Nobody really knows what happened to them. Minho keeps calling it 'The Great Sleep'. We where minding our business like we always do, heard a big crash and we all passes out. When we woke up, it was like nothing had happened but they Sisters and their families where gone. Jisung took it the hardest. He has been here the 2nd longest out of us 8. He was really close with the family for years. I think it was because they were witches and could see us. They were not afraid of us either. Some of the other ghost and beings in this house, YES you should be afraid of, but we, mainly Jisung, tried our best to keep them safe. They were pretty powerful too. Always protecting humans from the supernatural. The whole family for many generations, some of the most powerful witches you'll ever meet.

So imagine our surprise when we woke and they where gone. Almost like they didn't exist anymore. Now we can barley keep a family here longer than a year. It's the reality of being a ghost and trapped here I guess. Most know the supernatural exist but they are to afraid of it. Or people think we are a gimmick. Which is irritating. We were people once too. We are just dead now, like they will be in 50-70 years. It's getting harder walking around the house with nothing new happening. Wondering if anyone is ever going to move in here. Changbin, another ghost, is trying to figure out how to move on. I would like to but there's something about living in the human world. Watching it continue on like I wasn't even here.

I was one of the best Blacksmiths of my village. I could weld iron into anything. Well liked, loved and eventually hated. I did nothing wrong, yet they found me guilty of witchcraft, if you could believe it. Falling in love with the wrong person is really all i'm guilty of. Pippa was her name. She was the daughter of one of the council members of the village. There was something about her that just made everyone love her. I fought it for a while until she revealed that she loved me too. We planned to run away together. Her father was completely against our union. He thought I was below her station. How could you put a station on Love? She often would sneak out and visit me in the shop right after closing. All she wanted was her freedom and he refused to give it to her. Until that night, She-

My thought is cut off as I hear someone coming in the door. Probably another stupid teen wondering what happened here and if there are actual ghost. Seungmin, Minho and Jisung have fun scaring them all away. It's funny sometimes. If the kids deserve it.

What's this? A new family moving in? The realtor is here with a welcome sign and goodie bags. Seems like there is gonna be some new humans living here. I wonder how long it will take before this one gets scared away. The family before only lasted 5 months. We don't mean to scare them, but some of us get a bit to excited when it comes to the living. "OOOOOOO we have a new family moving in!" I hear Jisung yell, before I can say anything about him behaving himself, he is already running up the attic stairs to the others, slamming the door. Scaring the realtor. I sigh as I slowly make my way up there to convince these mongrels not to scare anyone else away.

"What do you mean Jisung? Nobody did a walk through" Hyunjin says with annoyance in his voice. "I know! But the realtor is down stairs right now with a welcome sign. Ask Chris!" Jisung repeats as I walk in. "Chris. Tell us. Is another family moving in?" Changbin asks "Apparently so..." "Do we know anything about these people? Who are they? Where do they come from?" Jeongin questions, an anxiety attack coming on. He too, was really close with the Sisters. Plus strangers really freak him out. "Who buys a house without seeing it first?" Minho says in a judgmental voice. Which he has a point. It gets me thinking, who are they? ... We are getting off track. "Guys listen. We don't want to keep scaring families away or this will keep happening." I say gesturing to Jeongin who looks like he is on the verge of tears. I walk over and put an arm around him. "Plus they could be nice. We want the to stay if they are. Everyone just needs to chill." "Its never on purpose..." Felix cuts in and we all go silent looking at Hyunjin. "Okay most of the time it's never on purpose." "In my defense those people were weird and had terrible taste." Hyunjin says dismissing us. "The 60's where awful." "Excuse me?! They where fantastic!" Felix says getting defensive. "You literally died in the 60's... how was it that great." Seungmin says. Felix goes to respond but I cut in. "Hey! This is not the point. Stay focused. We are going to be good. It's been a while since we had new people living here. We need some human interaction. Plus what if they have kids and want to make this their forever home?" "A forever home Christopher... Bad choice of words." Changbin adds before disappearing. "Your getting sentimental again. It's going to make me sick." Minho comments.

There's no getting through to these guys so I walk away. Make my way back downstairs to watch the realtor set up. She's brought a sign with their names on it. 'Welcome Persephone and Athena!' "2 females with Goddess names. Do you think they are related?" I hear Minho ask from behind. "I don't know." I say as we watch the realtor make her way to the door but she stops and turns. "Sooo. We have 2 new people moving in here... Um. I really need this house to stay sold so if you all could, I don't know, not ... scare.. them? That would be great." She calls out looking around for an answer that she wont get. Some humans can see us, others can only hear us, the rest don't even know we are their. "I must be losing it... I'm asking an empty house to behave." She says walking out the door.

We make our way down to the sign. "Maybe they are lovers. That would be interesting." He says as I fix the sign, its crooked. "Regardless of who they are, Lets try not to spook them to much..."

Percy POV

..."Holy shit Percy! This house is already furnished!"

Percy POV

"THEE!?"I yell for my best friend as I wake from being knocked out.

There is so much blood. Is that all from me? How did they even know we where trying to leave today?? Ughhhh. My head.

"Focus Percy." I whisper to myself. I hear her scream. I know what is happening in there. They are trying to brand her like they had done with me. I can't let them do this to her. I grab the crowbar from under my bed and follow the screams. I run into the room swinging the bar hoping I hit someone.

"Woah there Little Dove. Your awake." Luke says stopping me. "Now my Love we've talked about this. Your actions have consequences." "Why are you doing this to us? What did we do to deserve this?" I ask as he grabs my neck. "You made us fall in love with you." He responds. "I never asked-" "Luke! I hate having to hold her down like this." Nate says as he tries to keep Athena still. "Please just do it so she will stop moving and I can lay here with her." "Please don't do this! I'll do whatever you want! Just let her go" I plead. Nobody should have to suffer being branded. "Don't you get it Little Dove. You belong to us now. People need to know that. You have my mark and Athena will have Nate's." "Just hold on Baby. I will be over soon.." Nate says to Thee

I don't know if it was hearing Athena scream and try to kick her way out again but it was like adrenaline shot went through my body and I jumped on Luke's back, knocking him over and dropping the brand. Nate, like a dumbass, let go of Athena to grab it. Which made her start to fight him. She was able to get the brand and hit him with it. Luke had me on the ground choking me when she finally knocked him out too.

"Percy! You need to get up." Athena said as shes trying to get me up. "We have to get out of here before they wake."

Once I finally come to I look around at the men on the floor of her room. "Please Perc! Get your emergency bag and lets get the fuck out of here! Don't forget to leave your phone!"

Fortunately, or rather unfortunately, We have been preparing for weeks to get out. We've tried so many times to escape but nothing ever works. It seems like they are always 3 steps ahead of us. Until tonight. We grab our emergency bags and sprint out the door. To the use car lot we've been casing for a while now. We pay for the cheapest but most reliable for now, fill it up and get the hell out. We where driving for a while before we feel comfortable stopping. We pull into a truck stop somewhere in ... well i'm not really sure where.

"Percy. Your face." Athena says looking at me like she just seen a ghost. I flip the visor down to check what is happening and boy. It looks like I've been through hell and back. I have dry blood on the side of my head. I lift my hair to see the cut. Its small but it sure did bleed a lot. I also have dry blood coming from my nose and I can see a black eye already forming. I look back at Athena and she only has a few cuts on her face and half a brand on her back . "It could be worse. Lets just get gas, use the bathroom quickly and keep going." I say "Yeah we should also find out where we are."

We get what we need along with a bunch of stares from strangers. Yeah we must look pretty crazy to walk through this small town with looking the way we do. Once we get gas, we stopped a nice trucker who let us know we are in Seymour Tennessee. Not as far from Greensboro as I'd like to be but it is a start.

"Do you ladies need me to call anyone for you? You should probably get your head checked out." He said. "No sir thank you." "Where you headed anyway?" He asked as Thee and I look at each other. "West." She responds. "We are headed west." I believe he picked up on the fact we didn't want to divulge to much info so he said "Just stay on 40. It will take you as far west as you need to go."

We thanked him and set off on 40 like he said. Starting our new lives somewhere out there. Hopefully far enough away from Luke and Nate.

We stop a few more times, Once to pick up a phone with a GPS and in Joplin Montana. Apparently Athena has been making wire transfers into an account out here. Its in her birth name, Diana Athena Susanne Anderson, so Nate had no idea she had it. "Wow. I would have never thought about that." "Yeah it helps that my grandparents set an account up for me a long time ago." She responds "But I never touched it, just made wires into the account." "Thats so smart." "Yeah. The first time I tried to leave Nate, and failed, I knew I needed something when we both finally found the courage to leave."

The guilty feeling is building up again. If I wasn't so stupid and saw the signs. She would't have had to do this. I've ruined our lives- "Don't do that." She cuts off my thoughts. Like she knows what I'm thinking. "I know what you are thinking Perc. It's not your fault. He was really good with manipulating you. So was Nate. We were both in love and it's neither on of our faults. It's theirs." She said as she start's up the car again. "Yeah but we have to start over now." I say looking out the window. "Starting over is going to be fun. You can finally become the cook you've always wanted to be and I can open a shop to sell the things I make." "I guess your right. I just wish I would have been more smart about who I fall in love with and bring into your life." "Girl! It's hard to find someone to love out here. All the good ones are gone or we cant find them." "Yeah. Might as well do a seance and date a ghost." We where both silent before busting out laughing. "For real tho! Let me get it in with Elvis ... Respectfully." Thee says while making me laugh again. It feels good to laugh without being scared of getting hit or offending someone.

"Okay okay. Where do we wanna head tho?"I ask as we start heading west on 40 again. "We should find a place to live." "Well California is as far as we can go." Thee said while ripping into another beef jerky stick. "We should also see where the next restaurant is because i'm tired of junk food."

After eating, sleeping, filling up the car .. a lot. We finally made it to California. To a small dinner, we sit and attempt to find a place to live without any road blocks. We order and I come across a house. "Oooo this house is way under price. 4 rooms, 2 baths, an attic and basement." "Let me see." Thee takes the phone and gasps "Percy! We need this house. It's has the perfect spooky vibe." I go to respond to her when the waitress cuts in. "Ah. The Halliwell Manor." She says. "Whats wrong with it." I ask "That house was owned by the Halliwell family for generations. The are a family of witches. It's also apparently haunted." "Righttttt. Perc. Make an offer." Thee says and I do. "Good luck with that. Nobody ever stays in that house for to long." She says as she walks away.

A few hours later, to our surprise, our offer gets excepted. "Looks like our new home is San Francisco Percy! Lets go."

We get into the car and head to the Manor. I find it strange we got excepted so fast AND can move in. It makes me wonder. What is really in that house? If it's just ghost, then this is a steal. Let's be real, after what we have been through. Ghost could never scare us away.

Can they?

Christopher POV

Whats this? A new family moving in?
