The Spirit Following Me
Lee woke up, the bright sunny glow filled her room and her cats were awoken as well. As usual, she felt a presence, but ignored it. Her cats, however, did not. They hissed, and arched their backs until Lee walked over to them and fed them. After Lee had done this, she walked downstairs and ate breakfast with her family.

We've been hearing it every morning since you got them..". Her father spoke as well, but he wasn't as cheerful about it "They woke me up this morning, if they can't calm down we'll make them outdoor cats!". Lee then pitched in, her voice raised higher than theirs. "But you can't! Moxy and Snips don't like sleeping without being next to me!". Her father laughed, not believing her. "I was just joking, but please do try to stop the hissing? It keeps waking me up". Lee nodded, today was Saturday, so instead of going to school, she always took a walk to get to the park, and then to the forest. Lee packed herself a lunch, and some cat food, then walked out of the house with Moxy and Snips, after they were at the park, they felt the presence again. As they continued walking to the forest, the presence followed. Once she got to the spot she ate her lunch and fed her cats at, the presence spoke."Help.. Me...". Lee was terrified and her two black cats hissed at the presence. Lee spoke shakily, "W..What is y..your name?"
The ghost spoke again, pain filling its voice "Jacklyn....."
