CHAPTER EIGHT

Lizzy, the ghast, dissolved into the darkness. Charlie popped a few magical light orbs up to the ceiling so they could see to exit the lighthouse. Once outside they were grateful that the fog had lifted, and it was now a clear evening, with the new crescent moon rising dimly overhead.

The Howards, Deanes, Eva, William, Emily and the sheriff, stood motionless. The sudden silence grew awkward as Charlie tried to decide how to divide the jobs that needed done in preparation to return the ghast, Lizzy, to her body.

It meant working together… could he really ask this of his family and friends? To work side by side with the Deane brothers.

“I’m not sure how to divide up the jobs,” he finally admitted. “This is not a situation I expected us to be in and to be honest, I don’t really know where to go from here.”

“Well, I can start,” offered Emily. “I’m going to need some super strength, a.k.a. William, to help me. I cannot carry Lizzy’s body all on my own. I’m not sure what she was thinking by only telling me where her body is hidden.”

“She’s thinking you’re the only one she can trust,” explained Michael. He could not help but be proud of his girlfriend, but at the same time, feared what this ghast would do once returned to her body.

How powerful a witch was she? Whose side would she be on? At the moment, he’d answer that question as her own side, however, once human again, everything would change. And it was Deane blood that would course through her veins. And being in spirit form, he could not use his empathy to get a sense of her true feelings.

“Regardless of trust,” said Emily, “which I do not take lightly, I will still need William’s help.”

“And you may have it,” William promised. “That leaves the rest of you to gather the required items and prepare the ceremony location.”

“We don’t have any of the needed items,” informed Lucas. “I suppose the old house might have a store of stuff we haven’t come across yet.”

“It’s a big house, it could take months to find,” said Riley.

“I guess that means you will need to prep the location then,” Charlie aimed at the Deane brothers. “We may not have all the items ourselves, but I know where we can get them if we don’t.”

Lucas nodded, looking like he wanted to speak. It took him a second to do it. “This is a lot to ask, but I’m not sure just my brother and I can get the location ready in time. We might need some help with that.” He sucked in, letting out upon exhale, “We’ve never done anything like this, so I have no idea what I’m supposed to do. And I have no idea where this place is we’re supposed to go to.”

“I’ll go with you,” offered Melinda. She quickly shot don’t-bother-arguing-we-have-to-do-this eyes at her brothers and William.

Mack, as if reading the brothers minds reminded, “I’ll be close by, securing the area for the ceremony.
