Sally was fighting with Arely's things when they heard something. A whistle. Getting louder. "Wha-" Arely almost asked, meaning to say "What's that sound?" Although she couldn't say it before something burst into the room. "WHAT!?" All of them asked this time, no interruption. The group was right to be shocked, for what they saw looked half mummy, half-human, there were faint indications of mold on their skins, but they looked human. Tomas and Eric were in on the action one second in. They grabbed random things and barred them like weapons. A second later, Arely and Sakura were in too. Sakura and Eric stopped short. Sakura's kind, stubborn-headed demeanor left her, replaced by shock. Eric's mischievous eyes were gone as well, and it was replaced my fear. Like Arely's family, Eric had always had an insight and could understand things that were hard to understand. Other than math. Arely looked and saw what they looked scared about. Them.Their bodies. dead, pale, but there was no mistaking it. These were the bodies of her dead friends. Arely let out a yelp. Tomas let loose with his "weapon" WHich was a wooden stick she used for her window. Before he took a swing, he stopped and made the same face as Sakura and Eric.  Ugh, Arely thought, Now you've seen your dead body. Disgusting. Arely remembered something she had read: "In a temperate climate, it usually requires three weeks to several years for a body to completely decompose into a skeleton, depending on factors such as temperature, humidity, presence of insects, and submergence in a substrate such as water," Arely noticed Sally was fine, not in a trance. Her body must have already decomposed. Arely thought, remembering Sakura's comment that Sally was the oldest ghost in the place. Arely snatched Tomas's weapon and swung, not caring if she was hitting her dead friends' body or not. They crumbled like ash, which Arely also found disgusting. She found the whole situation disgusting. SHe didn't like dead bodies in general, and them falling and turning into ash at her feet? She was gonna go to the bathroom after this and puke. Soon all that was left of the.... what were their name? HD, that's it. Arely thought. Half-human. ANyway. All that was left of the HDs were ashes. Arely knew that she had swung at her friends, and she really didn't care. One of her favorite poems " Love is to love someone for who they are, who they were, and who they will be. -Chris Moore" SHe liked to change it up "To be a good friend is to care for someone for who they are, who they were, and who they will be.  0.1% Arely and 99.9% Chris Moore"  SHe shook her head and poked Sakura. she jerked away, and Arely saw what she hoped to never see again. The dark chain that had bound Emily and Tomas to nightmares. Speaking of Emily, where was she? Arely hadn't heard a word of her this whole time, she whirled around to look at her. Nightmare chain. Arely was starting to panic, and she looked down at her necklace, hoping for the faint shimmer of last time. She then touched the necklace Sakura gave them. Arely had noticed that it was now a dark swirling, something! She tried to take it off, but it was starting to choke her, then she was out.

"What?" Arely said to herself, blinking. She was in a dark room, and the memories were rushing back. "Dammit. I'm in a nightmare room." She said.  SH braced herself, and rushed forward, ready to take one of her nightmares. The first one came hard and fast, knocking her out of her A+ game. It was of her, on her old couch, looking at the floor. Everyone looked sad, and Arely recalled the situation gravely. Her father's deathbed. When he died, Arely remembered, we were all there, grieving. That had been 7 years ago, Arely told herself. That already passed and I have to move on. She told herself. And yet, in the back of her mind, in a part she wasn't aware of, she was saying I'll never let the grief go. It will be with me for life and beyond. That where were all her dark memories lie to this day? Yep. The next one was disappointing. Her being dragged away from her family. She always used a hashtag for these memories #Getoveritori'llneverbeatpeace Get over it of I'll never at peace.
