As willing as they were to try and carry on after that first death, out of some need and/or ability to forget, now it had come to bite them back… Two deaths… If that wasn’t enough, there was the fact that they had begun to doubt what it was that brought them there, and then bringing yet more questions was the idea that everything had to do with their dearly departed Marie Noble. Of so many things this one could no doubt stand as the oddest, which, given who they tried to be in life, could only mean this would be… odd.
All of them now retreating to the living room again, the other maid, Miss Crowley, entered with a trey. “Tea, Sir?” she looked to Geoffrey. He waved two fingers, and she moved forward.
“It’s impossible…” he spoke, taking his cup. “Ghosts, that’s children’s stories. My daughter had an accident, a terrible accident that took her life. To suggest that she is both a ghost and a murderer is an insult to her memory…”
Unbeknownst to them, the spirit had indeed joined them, which in the language of reality meant her player had come out of her shelter under the stairs, circled around until she stood behind Miss Ella Everly. She whispered in her ear before taking position. That position was another which an informed player would recognize. The ghost stood right behind Ella, head behind head, arms and legs lined up with arms and legs, as though they were one person… Possession. Close-by like this, she would whisper the words the ghost would speak through her.
“Ghosts are real,” Ella/Marie spoke, and the others looked to her. “There’s one here, right now, father…” There was a pause, and she laughed as they all stared in shock, confusion.
“Ella?” Henry spoke. She/they looked at him. “Are you okay?”
“Oh, I’m fine… my honey Henry…” she spoke again, and now he gasped.
“Marie? It can’t be you…” he shook his head; she just smiled.
“My baby…” Genevieve cried out, taking a step.
“You stop, mother,” they pointed their fingers. No one moved, as Marie directed Ella past all of them. “None of you.” Bradley looked to the spirit behind, discreetly indicating a drawer nearby. Ella didn’t move or say anything, as she waited for the ghost to tell her what to do… She was too busy looking at Bradley, frowning, trying to understand what he was getting at. He frowned, having nodded to the drawer four times. Finally he pointed, mouthing and miming for the object and its use. When she finally got it, she realigned herself with Ella. “It’s too late now. You didn’t know, you thought it was an accident. Well, guess what. Isabel wasn’t an accident,” she moved to the drawer. “Evelyn wasn’t an accident,” she opened it. “I wasn’t an accident, and Ella won’t be either…” she pulled out a knife. “Don’t worry, it’s a f…” she stopped, realizing that was Brittany talking to her and not Marie talking through her… She’d almost said ‘fake.’
“Ella, what are you doing?” Henry asked, stepping up. Ella/Marie pointed the knife out and he stopped.
“Ella’s probably scared right now. Think how she’ll feel when I do this,” she turned the knife around and pointed it at her heart. “It’s all your fault…” were the last words Ella/Marie spoke before plunging the (collapsible) knife into Ella’s chest. Marie stepped away, releasing her former fiancé’s new fiancée to play out her own death. She fell to the ground as Henry went to her. The Nobles stood together, the maids huddled together, and the butler… he went and flashed the lights… Five seconds… Marie Noble was appearing for all to see.
“Hello…” she spoke.
“Oh my goodness, Marie…” Genevieve cried out.
“Why did you leave me here, Mommy?” she tilted her head. “I was so scared, Daddy…” she looked to Geoffrey. “If it wasn’t for sweet old Bradley, I would have been all alone…” she sounded childish and mad… both the ‘insane’ and the ‘angry’ one.
“Bradley?” Geoffrey turned to the butler, who smiled and went to stand by the ghost’s side.
“My mistress needed me. You abandoned her… Sir,” he pointed his finger.
“I’m so sorry,” Geoffrey shook his head.
“Too late,” she taunted. “But it’s okay. I know now,” she nodded.
“Know what, sweetheart?” Genevieve asked.
“I know who killed me, who pushed me. I don’t know why, but I know who… and it’s one of you… I didn’t know which, so I had to bring you here, to find out the truth.”
“One of us?” Geoffrey asked.
“Not you, Daddy,” she assured him. “I am sorry about Aunt Evelyn… No one would have missed her, not even you, Daddy. But she helped, they all did… They helped me know for sure.”
“And now comes the time… and whoever you are, you’ll wish you never came,” Bradley pointed to all of them.
