Here It is
"So u don't believe in ghosts?"a soft silky voice spoke that send chills down his spine.
He turned with a jerk and spotted the brunette again.
"No, I Dont" he replied.
"Even if I tell you that this is my grave?" she asked her voice lingering in the air.
Something in her gaze made him creep out.
"Your grave?" he asked.
The girl nodded her head her gaze fixed on him.
"why in the basement-?" samrat started
"My stepmom buried me alive here bcoz i married against her will" she replied her tone dangerously soft like a small girls "She didn't even hesitate once," samrat stared around not able to make sense of anything he felt suffocated "I had to write the name and dates here on my own, she killed me, I hate her-"
"WAT NONSENSE!?? M outta here!!" Samrat almost yelled cutting her rambles off.
She stopped and stepped towards him.
He felt suffocated to stand here for another second and dashed out of the room, he wrenched open the door and shut it close as he entered the kitchen, to find it empty.
"I thought she would be better than others, but she is the freakiest! Damn her!" murmuring to himself he stared at the door.
Guilt drived him as he held the knob again I shouldn't have yelled at her , he took a deep breath and turned it, but the lock didn't click, It was locked.
He turned and felt goosebumps rise all over his back n arms as he spotted her sitting standing at the kitchen door "you" he stumbled back and hit the chair as he toppled and fell sprawled on the floor, he jerked up immediately and stared around wildly "Freak, Its not possible!" Nora was nowhere to be seen.
A nerve-cracking half-moaning and ebbed scream reached his ears, It seemed to be coming from the hall itself.
He now proceeded a little more cautiously into the hall.
This place was getting scarier, Samrat shook his head and stared at his watch. It was 4:00
He wiped the sweat off his forehead as a million questions burned his heart, he was finding it difficult to even draw a breath, he trudged upstairs staring around searching for someone, anyone whom he could question.The corridor was dark, he sighed and pulled his torch, the batteries had died nevertheless he clicked it, and to his astonishment light flooded through.
This is freaky! Damn!
He headed off towards the rooms in the corridor, he stopped as he read the name plate of one such room
'Nora '
Was incripted on the golden plate.
Samrat took a deep breath and held the handle to enter the room, suddenly he felt a presence behind him, gathering up all courage he turned and met tinkling orange eyes.
"you?" he exclaimed.
Mr grover simply nodded smiling. "how do I look? Its my fav colour"
"Tell me one thing, why do u keep switching?" samrat asked irritated
"why? cant ghosts be fashionable?" mr grover's eyes tinkled again.
"Who's nora? He cut in pointing at the door.
Mr. Grover's eyes shifted to the door and back to him.
"My daughter"
"I have never seen her with u guys, why?" samrat questioned.
"she's quite shy" Mr. Grover mused.
"Hmm" samrrat turned back at the door "Your wife killed her?" he asked but didn't get any reply.
On turning surely enough he found that mr grover had left.
Samrat gulped hard, he couldn't excuse their unusual magic as tricks anymore.
He held the door knob, quite freaked out to stand in the dark corridor anymore he entered nora's room.
It was same just like any other in this corridor, Samrat searched throughout the room shuffling through books on one of the shelves he found a pic of nora smiling.
He held it in the lamp light, his eyes widened as he read the date at the corner of the black and white photo, It was dated sep 1980.
The photo slipped through his fingers as shock had him rooted to the spot, with a jerk he checked the other books lying around.
Old novels of writers who's name he had not even heard.
He checked the publish dates and was shocked yet again.
They have been here for the past so many years? The entire family is actually a real ghost family!
He jerked as something shifted in the shadows and snapped his head at the direction.
"who's there?" he breathed.
He felt his heart jump as Ana appeared from the dark into the reach of the lamp light.
Her hair falling on her face as she clicked her nails.
"Ana?" he exclaimed, she tilted her head in his direction and stared at him, he was shocked, as ana's piercing green eye stared at him, her lips curled up in an evil smile.
"I am going to kill you …tonight"
"wat?" he asked shocked.
"you know why you are still alive?" she jeered.
Samrat shook his head as he stepped towards the door through small steps while ana stepped towards him jeering her teeth.
"My family plans to turn you into a ghost like us, for me, because I don't have a mate" samrat was tensed now.
"they would have killed you but they grew a liking for you," samrat shook his head while ana continued towards him "you don't get scared"
Samrat shook his head "this is crazy" he murmured as he stepped further back very close to the door.
"I don't want a mate, I will kill you-" she took a fast step towards him and shrieked "-now!"
He jerked up and threw the door wide open running out, though a moment's hesitation covered him as he couldn't spot the way to downstairs, he tried the other doors but they were locked.
"you cant escape me" ana shrieked.
Samrat stared around the corridor was dark with a flame torch lit at the far corner, he rushed towards it and found a door at the side, he had never seen it before, a glimpse of ana approaching him made him throw open the door, he was startled as a long never ending corridor with unnaturally bright white walls with no door or windows stretched ahead.
He blinked twice and turned to find ana staring at him wide-eyed "Don't Go No! Don't take the path!am telling u DONT!" she shrieked fear replacing her face.
He stepped away from her, though she followed soft on her feet. He broke into a run and soon she was left behind, he stared ahead to find Mr Grover staring at him wide eyed in Lime yellow suit and eye colour this time "Go! That's the way! RUN!" he shrieked in delight.
Samrat paced faster, ran for his life, Ana would kill him, why was he so sure about it he didn't know, but his heart thudded as he paced ahead. Soon he saw Mrs Grover standing in her heavy red saree "Yes! Run Run faster!"
He ignored her and ran ahead, the corridor was never ending, he looked back to find no one there
where had they gone?
He stared ahead and stopped in his tracks as a scream escaped from his mouth. There she was- Nora.
She stood staring at him, without a further thought he ran, trying to get away from her but unlike other ghosts she ran with him, next to her, he huffed and paled, she was running effortlessly her eyes at him.
He gasped for breath and spotted the young boy listening to his ipod shaking his head laughing at him.
With unknown fury building inside him he ran faster and nora was still running along with him..no floating…her feet barely touching the floor not making even a simple thud while his footsteps banged and echoed throughout the corridor.
He stopped as he spotted Mr Grover again
"Just a lil further my boy and you will be one of us" he spoke again.
"what?" samrat exclaimed.
"Yes! run just a little furter"
Fear gripped him, there was no way back, he had to leave the mansion now, get out of this frigging corridor he ran and nora was still with him.
He stopped as he spotted Ana
"You? Again? You were there and now?"
"I am a ghost" she replied "I told you!" she shrieked "I told you not to take this path, I will kill you" She stepped towards him and aimed for his throat, samrat dodged her and shoved her away as he paced ahead god! When was the corridor going to end? Any door? Window? Anything?
But a certain feeling sinked into him, if ana was a ghost how come he was able to push her?Was this a trick?
He turned to nora who stared at him with a spark in her eyes, this cant be a trick, they are ghosts. He gulped
Nora still ran with him, There was a BANG with an eye-piercing lighting as the floor beneath him shook, he gasped as he lay sprawled on the floor.
With icy fear piercing his heart he got up and came face to face with Mr Grover again, though this time he wore a blood red suit with hazel eyes
"Welcome to the family" he gave a toothy grin.
"wat?" samrat yelled as a sinking feeling settled in his stomach.
"You are a ghost now, that's your body" the man smiled at a figure turned upside down on the floor, its face not visible.
Samrat huffed and paled as he saw his body lying on the floor,
Everything was a blur to him as his knees gave up and darkness engulfed him.
