The red monster laughed, revealing its sharp teeth and glare of fury. Naturally, it was none other than Ghost! "I told you… You can't kill me." Crane chuckled as he strode up as well. With them were other members of Torrent, each of them striding toward Frank with different plans in mind. "Trying to win with numbers? Interesting." Frank slowly slid his ring on this finger, and his form was suddenly different, as the air around him seemed to quake. "What?!" Torrent and his clowns were all stunned. The scary, green spiritron particles suddenly gathered, shaping into the silhouette of an adorable infant.

Shadows danced and whispered among the gnarled trees, their forms elongated and menacing. Archer's heart raced as he navigated through the twisted maze of the forest. Each step felt like a battle against unseen forces, as doubts and fears clawed at his resolve. But he pressed on, driven by the love he held for Violet and Mateo. As he reached a clearing, he encountered a specter—a ghostly figure that bore the resemblance of his late father. The specter's eyes held a mix of pride and disappointment, his voice echoing with an ethereal quality. "To prove your worth, you must confront the shadows of your past," the specter whispered, its words carrying the weight of unresolved emotions.

The result was a Hybrid Horror. "Look at them," Leo whispered, his indigo glass arm beginning to hum in sympathetic resonance. A nearby birch tree had developed the unmistakable, haughty sneer of Director Sterling, the man who had signed the original Ark eviction notices. The tree’s leaves were no longer green; they were a shimmering, metallic gold, vibrating with the Director’s translated thoughts. “...Finally... the air... the dirt... it belongs to the Shareholders again...” the tree whispered, the sound like dry leaves skittering across stone.

[The Resurrection of the Ghost] The Alpine dawn was a bleeding wound of violet and gold, casting long, skeletal shadows over the snow as Ivy stood paralyzed at the tree line. The silence of the valley was absolute—no explosion, no roar of fire, only the rhythmic thrum of the departing helicopter that carried the ghost of 1890 into the clouds.

Like the air itself was holding its breath.

My heart falls. "All five were found dead, hang..." he coughs, unsure if he should continue speaking. But this town is open. "Hanging from trees within the Phantom Forest. Police found a note, and are currently investigating it. We have also spoken to some people, but have so far found nothing to further our investigation." Everyone gasps, including me. Luca swallows from next to me, already knowing off the news, while June shoves her head on my shoulder and starts to cry.

What's going on? I barely notice the tree as the rest falls toward me, my thought confused. It must be the ghost. The ghost is controlling the tree! Wait... I look up, at the speed blur moving to crush me. "Oh no," I whisper, my voice shriveled and weak. I try to scream, but I can't. I'm frozen with pain and fear and hate. I can't move. I can't think. I'm really going to die, aren't I? No more stupid games of hide and seek. Death has found me, digging its talons into my skin. Staring at me with its giant red eyes that haunt my memories.

A darker shape against the darkness. I turned sharply. “Kai, enough!” No answer. Rain plastered my hair to my forehead as I exhaled, ready to leave. My body screamed at me to get out, to leave, to forget the message entirely. I took a step back. And that was when I noticed it. Something beside me.

Blood streaked his body, dripping from wounds carved into his throat. His head lolled unnaturally, and yet—nothing was holding him. No rope. No branch wrapped around him. He was suspended in air, as though invisible hands pinned him there.

I called out loud, hoping that whoever it was would answer me. But no one answered. Mommy! Brother! Daddy! Where are you? Maybe I heard a ghost? Is it really a ghost haunting this place? I shook my head again, trying to be rational. What the hell! There are no ghosts, Francine! You are just hallucinating because you're tired! Or maybe you’re just going crazy? "Is anybody here?" I asked once again, my voice steadier this time, as I took slow steps closer to the massive Narra tree.

The memory was so vivid, so real, Clarissa forgot her predicament in the shower and sank into the memory as though she were really there. Looking upwards, Clarissa could see the rope was wound around the branch of an oak tree. The ghost stood in front of her, watching her hang. He walked towards her and thrust the knife he was holding into her stomach and then twisted it inside her body just as he had done in the shower.
