Kiki opened her eyes. She thought someone had called her name. She was alarmed to see the back of Cid.

“Leave this room. You don’t belong here!” Cid threatened.

The shadow grew larger.

Cid backed up and started to pour a salt circle.

“What the hell are you doing in my room!” Kiki demanded.

“You have an intruder. Jake alerted me,” Cid said. He motioned with his free hand for her to come to him. “I’m not sure if it’s friend or foe, but it opened your door and walked in while you were otherwise engaged.”

Kiki crawled out of bed and moved quickly to Cid. He picked her up and put her in the circle. “Stay put, and don’t break the salt line,” he ordered.

Cid slid his hand in the bag and pulled out an EVP booster. He turned it on and slid it across the table.

“If you’re talking, I can’t hear you. This will help me to understand you. You don’t belong in here. You must leave.”

“Can’t,” the digitized voice said.

“How can I help you?” Cid asked calmly.

“Ring, wedding ring, lost.”

“You’re looking for a lost wedding ring?”

“Yes.”

“Man or woman’s?” Kiki asked.

“My ring. Wife cries. Thinks I was unfaithful. Washed hands. Ring gone.”

“We’ll find your ring if it is still here,” Cid promised.

The black shadow faded. The door opened and closed.

Cid turned on the light.

Kiki stood shaking in her Hello Kitty nightshirt. “Can I move?”

“Yes, the ghost is gone.”

Kiki launched herself at Cid who gently guided her to a chair. He grabbed the coverlet from the bed and wrapped it around her. “The room should warm up soon.”

He reached over, locked the door, and began turning on all the lights.

Kiki blinked trying to adjust to the lights. “How did Jake know there was something in here?”

“Don’t tell her I’m a ghost. Not yet,” Jake pleaded in Cid’s ear.

“Your laptop was still on, and he checked out the room to make sure you hadn’t left anything else on that would be a hazard while you slept.”

“You mean he can see me?” Kiki asked, looking at the laptop on the bed. “The webcam! I forgot about that.”

“That and your phone. My associate is a bit overprotective,” Cid said, setting Kiki’s phone on its face.

“I don’t know if I should be thankful or creeped out.”

“Jake wouldn’t hurt you. It’s not his way.”

“Thank you, I’ll try to explain me to her later,” Jake promised.

“Was that ghost going to hurt me?”

“In my opinion, no. But leaving your door open wasn’t cool. Anyone could have gotten in.”

“Like you,” Kiki said, her eyes hardening.

“Before you go there, I was woke up by your boy… er… friend,” Cid said sternly.

“Alright, what do I do now?”

“We either find the ring and get it to the entity’s wife, or you can expect nightly visits.”

“You mean that thing has been in here before?”

“I would imagine it has. It could have been drawing power from somewhere and used it to manifest tonight. Ghosts need a lot of power to touch things in our world, Boss. I think that it planned on dismantling the cabin until it found the lost ring.
