The Lady in Black
         by Ashley Butler
Page 3 of 3

"Listen Grandma, listen to them you hurt them"! "Why grandma, Why"? Lilly said with a sob.

"I had to", said Grandma. I was in love with your grandfather, and the only way to have him was to have no children. "They're still hurting Grandma".......

With that Grandma stood up and walked over to Lilly and I. You know what I must do now Lilly.

Then there were two shots fired one aimed for me, and one aimed for Lilly .

So here we are, Living in death with James, Sarah, and Nelly.

Our bodies were discovered, a week after the murders. Grandma Vanhorn had warned us not to come, and we still came. Now we will never leave. I don't think they have ever discovered our murderer.

She shall be judged I tell the others, One day she will go before god and she shall be judged.

Maybe then the gates of heaven will open up for us. But for now every night we relive those two fatal shots! Nelly relives her hanging. James and Sarah relive their poisoning. We have eachother though Lilly, Nelly, James, Sarah, and I will never be alone again .
