“It does take a bit of getting use to,” said Jae. “But don’t worry, the worst it can do is leave you feeling the cold, creepiness of death.”

Colin continued laughing at Meghan until he felt the rush of something icy against his skin. A ghost floated up out of the ground on the exact spot Colin stood. It bellowed something about getting out of the way, and flew off.

“Not so pleasant, is it?” chided Meghan.

“C’mon. Something I wanna show you guys,” said Jae. They jogged a few buildings down and stopped at the least colorful candy shop the twins had ever seen. Each item was black, gray, or some other version of that color. “Wait here,” said Jae, racing inside.

A group of ghost children had gathered outside of the shop, arguing. Jae exited the store handing the twins a black piece of soft candy. “Watch,” he said, nodding toward the arguing ghost children.

A few of the ghosts were daring another ghost to try a certain kind of candy, which he did not want to do. Eventually, he caved. Seconds later, he was no longer a ghost, but a living boy! He ran crazily, not believing he was alive again. Seeing the living Colin, Meghan and Jae, he rushed over, rubbing his hands over their faces.

“I can feel things again.” As instantaneously as he had transformed into the living boy, he changed back into the ghostly boy. His smile faded and he went back into the candy store, exiting with a pocketful of the candy.

“Was that supposed to be funny?” asked Meghan, equally troubled and stunned by what she had witnessed.

“No, that wasn’t. He’s probably new here. The older ones are teasing him.”

“What are we holding?” asked Colin cautiously.

Jae popped a piece into his mouth, grinning smugly. The twins watched as his body dissolved into a ghostly image.

“It only lasts about thirty seconds,” he yelled down to the twins, floating higher and higher into the air. “But it’s like nothing else you’ve ever tried!” Meghan didn’t wait. She popped hers in and closed her eyes, hard, as if expecting something to explode. She transformed and floated past Jae, on his way down.

“This is so cool,” she shouted. “Colin, try it! It doesn’t hurt or anything.” Not wanting to be outdone by Meghan he popped his in. Colin changed and passed his sister as she descended to the ground. He drifted to the rooftop. Feeling unstable, he grabbed the building.

A cloaked figure stood atop the roof. The figure held a leaf in its hand, speaking to it. A distressed female voice replied back, seemingly out of the leaf.

“We’re not ready yet. I hope it’s not too soon for them to be there.”

“I think we can use the situation to our advantage,” argued the cloaked figure; it was a man’s voice. He was cut off by the female voice.

“Behind you!”

The cloaked man turned, eyeing Colin, who let go of the roof and pointed himself downward. Halfway down he began to change back, and plunged toward the ground.
