The new roommate :D

It was a nice night, I had just fallen asleep when I woke up to a sound.. The moment that I opened my eyes I saw someone with a serious expression looking at me. I've never seen him before, did someone break into the house?! Before I could even react I was stabbed again and again.. The final stab was in my neck and the person left the knife there. A tear ran down my eye before I died.

I’ve been a ghost for a while, but I don't know for how long. I just remember waking up and being dead…

While staying here I decided to haunt the house. Many people tried to stay in the house that I’ve been haunting but none of them were brave enough. Watching families calling priests to exorcize me was pretty funny because I wasn’t a demon. Every priest just said that they weren’t able to exorcize me since I haven’t actually done anything bad. For the period after I died I really just wanted to go to the afterlife but I just couldn’t. I was stuck in this house with the same injuries that caused my death which didn’t was not helpful for my mentality.

After a while I realized I could get rid of that. The first family that came was a family of four and all of them were able to see me which was horrifying to me. They immediately called a medium so I could be sent to heaven, they were good people. That medium wasn’t able to send me to heaven because I've had a business that I didn't finish when I was alive, it was holding me back. The family moved out when they realized that I was stuck here. I wanted to see my friends and my sister. . I do not know where they are though because we used to live here.. It was just saddening. I should have counted the days so I knew how long I was dead for.. but I was starting to realize what I could do as a ghost. I learned how to stay invisible, and how to stop passing through walls.

I’d scare every human who dared to get to this apartment, while trying to find what my unfinished business was. Everyone who moved in left within a week. Finally one day I realized what my business was. . but it was nearly impossible. I just wanted to hang out with my friends and write about my book. A lot of mediums and exorcists tried to make me leave by solving my unfinished business but every time I’d tell them about it they’d just laugh and leave after getting paid at least 200$ for the visit. I despised them getting paid for doing nothing and I managed to kick some of them, the ones that weren't prepaid at least.

After a while though a weird human came. I was ready to give him the best scare, it would scare half his life out of him!

Strangely enough he hid the fact that he got scared. Weird… I tried to scare him again by flickering the lights and appearing with my death injuries. At first he looked kinda shocked but just ignored the situation. I was flabbergasted, this was the first time I wasn’t able to terrify someone.

“Hooman how come you are not afraid of me?”

“Well the rent prices are skyrocketing and this place is cheap, it even has furniture. I seriously cannot move out if that’s what you’re trying to do. Who are you anyway?”

“Well I am the ghost who haunts this place..I am ××××. Who are you hooman?”

“My name is ××××. Why are you haunting this place?”

“I have nothing else to do so I decided to haunt this place since I am attached to the area. You look rather young to be staying at a house alone.”

“Well I recently turned 17. Wait, why am I even talking to a ghost??”

I shrugged before turning invisible, I then went to the living room to watch the news because the current hooman was boring. I was peacefully watching The Silence of the Lambs but then, at the moment Hannibal was about to eat the police officer's tongue, someone changed the channel! I was furious,I can’t even watch tv at my own house?! I changed the channel back but he continued to change it to the channel he wanted to watch.

It was war.

“This is the living room, you aren’t even alive to be here!” he said.

He broke the final straw, I made the electricity go off. No one messes with me in my own house. He went to restore the power and I was ready to jumpscare him. The moment he restored the power I scared him. He honestly got scared, tripped and hit his head on a table.. This is bad, I just wanted to give him a good scare, not kill him!! I decided to bring him a pillow from his bed just in case he’s still alive.

A few ××××× had passed and the hooman and I became friends. We were having a small talk and he asked me when did I die.

“Uhh.. I don’t remember.. Maybe you’ll be able to find out about my death if you search it up lol.”

He nodded and started searching.

“Well you died at ××/07/20××.”

“What year is it now?” I curiously asked.

“It’s 20×× and as you know schools are starting pretty soon.”

“Good luck, school’s difficult but I am sure you can do it. I would help you but I am not the best at that. I could help you by writing about how painful it is to get stabbed!”

We both just laughed.

School had started for the hooman and it was pretty boring staying at this place doing nothing so I went outside to scare some people. The streets were empty. Ugh everyone started working already?! Then to my surprise I saw someone speeding from miles away. The traffic light was red but it didn’t look like the driver cared. It was my time to shine, I became visible and started to pass the road. I stopped in the middle of the crosswalk. I looked at the car that was about to hit me terrified. The driver was shocked and tried to stop but it was too late.

The car driver left the car to see if I was alive. Haha, he was absolutely horrified, he was looking at me shocked. I then slowly started to stand up, making him pray for his life and apologizing to me.

“Do not speed ever again, I will not let you get away.”

The man looked at me with fear in his eyes and nodded. I became invisible and he slowly and carefully drove away.

Mission Success!

I don’t know how long it has passed since the hooman started going to school, what was his name again?? The hooman just seems out of mood for conversation these days and doesn’t even get phased by my jumpscares..

change of view

That nerd was funny, he was the funniest student to make fun of in the whole school. I don’t know how long he’d withstand this but pretty soon he’ll break just like the rest of the students. He dared to scold us for smoking, he’ll regret it for the rest of his life, if he manages to survive. It was hilarious to bully him, and he couldn’t tell anyone because no one would believe him. I was waiting so I’d be able to break his glasses since we are writing an exam today.

He began to pass by the hall but I stopped him.

“Where’s my homework nerd?”

“I wasn’t able to do it.. I had other stuff to do.”

“Hahaha, you seriously want me to believe that?! Stop the excuses. You should have found time for it. I guess your homework is mine then!” I proceeded to punch him in the face, resulting in him falling to the ground. His glasses were broken. I took his homework while he was trying to fight back.

“Don’t you dare try to get away for not doing something we told you to do and if you ever try to leave or tell anyone about this you'll gladly be dead.”

~timeskip~

The boys and I decided to follow the prick so we could give him a last beating for the day. He looked anxious which made me laugh, he should have completed his tasks, if he did none of this would have happened. While following him a girl appeared and talked to that nerd. Is she seriously blind, why would she talk to him??

‘‘What’s her name nerd??’’

“Her name is Kiki…”

change of view

I saw some people with the hooman while he was returning, I decided to go and see if everything was okay because he looked pretty uncomfortable..

He never informed me that he had friends and those people don't seem like a good influence. The situation seemed pretty suspicious. I walked towards the group that was hanging out with Hooman.

“Who are they..? What happened to you..why are your glasses broken!?”

“I-”

“×××× was just not careful enough and fell off the stairs. Since we're his friends we decided to see if he was doing okay because that fall was a big one. Who are you anyway?”

“She is my roommate…” the hooman muttered, it was the first time seeing him so visibly scared. Not even I could scare him this much, I needed to find out who those people were.

“Thanks for helping the hooman but I can now help him too. Goodbye.”

I said, I made them leave after insisting that they didn't need to stay. After they left I peacefully teleported the hooman and myself in the apartment.

“Are they really your friends hooman..?”

He nodded, but I still could sense that something was wrong. You don’t get injuries like that by a fall.. I didn’t want to force him to tell me the truth but I couldn’t stand hearing lies coming out of my friend's mouth. I took his glasses and fixed them, I loved that power of mine but it was applied to only small items.

The next day, what day was it again? I decided to follow the hooman to confirm my theories or at the best case be relieved that he has more friends. He was walking to school and I was following him while staying invisible. It would be a challenge for me and it’d drain my energy cause I wasn’t able to go far away from the house without feeling exhausted, but who cares! My friend could be in danger.

The hooman arrived at school and gladly everything was going fine, then the group of his friends came. I was just watching to see if anything would happen. The one guy from yesterday, the weird looking one, was asked about my name. That guy asked the hooman something and because he didn’t respond they started beating my friend?!

I knew it!! I shouldn’t have trusted them!! I need to help the hooman! I kicked the bully where the sun does not shine and then I possessed the hooman so I could finish the business, no one harms my friends.. I began to punch that bastard, I made it look like self defense while I avoided the attacks. He looked dumbfounded.

“Don’t ever do this again. . I won’t continue to stay quiet any longer..”

I then left the hoomans body and started choking that bastard with my own two hands, while remaining invisible of course. I decided to stop since people would suspect that something is wrong. I proceeded to grab the hoomans arm and walk out of the school. I wouldn’t let him stay here for the day, something worse could happen.

After going to an area with no people I teleported us back to the apartment.

“Why didn’t you tell me that you were getting bullied?! I could have helped you out sooner. . You don’t have to keep it to yourself! I am your friend hooman!”

“I am sorry. . I didn’t want to get you involved because they could come here too.. You’re already dead, why should you have to be bothered by my problems?”

He asked me, I was a bit saddened about that but I understood what he meant.

“I do not care hooman. Even if they come I will not allow them to harm you. Even if they find an exorcist they won’t be able to get rid of me. I haven’t completed my business yet have I? ”

I said with a smile.

He chuckled, then someone started banging on the door. I went and checked who it was, it was that bastard. “Okay.. I will fight them, don't worry but I might possess you later. Just ignore them and don’t let them ruin your mood.” I then unlocked the door. The bully had a knife, is he crazy?! That bitch just stabbed me because he thought I was the hooman! I didn’t want them to figure out I am a ghost yet so I just concentrated on keeping the knife in my stomach and fake bleeding from that area. I then fell to the ground to make it even more believable.

“Fuck, this is all your fault nerd, if you dare to call the police on me we'll throw the blame on you! Why couldn't you have opened the door?!" that bully screamed.

It was annoying to hear what he was saying. I slowly stood up and looked at him before removing the knife from my belly. I made the lights flicker while doing that.

“Don’t you dare threaten the hooman again..” I charged at him with a fake knife but it gave him the scare he deserved. He was on the floor, begging for his life but this was only the start.

“You are really weak aren’t you all mighty bully?”

I said while smirking.

“If you ever try to lay a finger on the hooman after this then I’ll eliminate you, no matter the cost. One by one..”

I made his team fight each other so no one would bother me while I was teaching the bastard a lesson. I made him experience his worst nightmares, I didn’t even know I was capable of doing that..

“×××× stop this bitch! You never told me she was this strong!! ×××× isn’t it, isn't that your name? I swear I won’t harm that nerd again!! I am sorry!” he said while trembling in fear.

“This was too easy, you know..but you shouldn’t apologize to me.”

I smiled before grabbing the hoomans arm. I am not the person who deserves an apology here. The bastard's squad was down, unable to fight anymore.

“It’s not that hard, just apologize to the hooman.”

I said with a smile.

The bastard most certainly did not like it, he thought I was joking.

I wasn’t and just because that thought passed his mind I kicked him.

“I said, apologize to the hooman. Don’t make me repeat myself again”

“Okay! Okay! I am sorry ××××, I won’t ever bother you, just tell her to let us go! I swear that we won’t harm you again either ××××..”

Hooman looked kinda relieved after that, I am glad that I managed to help him. We let the bullies go after both of us agreed to forget this even happened.

“Thank you a lot ××××, had you not helped me it would have just become worse…Seriously thank you…”

He smiled. I am glad that I could help him.

A time period had passed, two ××××× I believe.

The hooman asked me about my unfinished business and if he could help me to complete it.

“I don’t really mind if I don’t go to heaven anymore, but I could tell you. So I don’t really remember but I want to meet my friends and sister one last time and write a book. I don't really remember the names of the ones dear to me though…”

The hooman looked at me kinda surprised, he said that he’d help me funfill the business so that I’d be able to go to heaven. The human then asked me a question.

“Why do you call me hooman? You could just call me ××××” he asked me curiously.

“Well… I don’t know, it comes off naturally. Whenever I see you I think of you as The hooman, not about your name if you know what I am saying. It’s your new nickname lol. ”

“It’s a nice and very creative nickname hahaha.”

After that conversation, we watched Anabelle and I got inspiration from it on how to scare actual friends of his.

The funny thing about the PJO cabin system is that everyone's always all 'oh the twelve' this and 'the twelve' that but that's absolutely not even remotely accurate. To start, right off the bat it's thirteen, not twelve, because they don't count Hades. But not really because before Percy, there were no big three kids, so we're down to ten active cabins already but it's actually eight because Artemis and Hera don't make demigods.

And of those eight, Mr. D is stuck at camp (thus not really making new demigods all that often) and his only two kids don't even sleep in a cabin, they sleep in the Big House with him.

So, pre-Percy, there are seven active cabins at Camp Half-Blood:

Glee club, the Jocks, the Nerds, the Geeks, the Farmers, the 'Sketchy Kids' and the Popular Kids.

Or, in other words, the Apollo, Ares, Athena, Hephaestus, Demeter, Hermes (and the unclaimed kids) and Aphrodite cabins.

What's cool is that you can already see the cabin dynamics in the show. For example, the Athena cabin allies with the Hermes cabin for the numbers. The Hermes kids plus all the unclaimed kids? It's the biggest cabin in the camp by far. It's a battle strategy. Luke and Annabeth's close relationship is just the cherry on top for Annabeth. It'll be really cool to see how the show develops the differences in the cabins during the series.

Do y'all think when Peeta came back from the Capitol he was partially looking at Katniss in the manner he was when he saw her in such a disheveled state after the war partially because after an intense amount of therapy and prepping to live as her neighbor again, he was just standing there like "I was scared of THIS??"
