Chapter 2

When CeCe and Rocky returned to the apartment, it was nearing four a.m. and they decided to sleep. They were lucky the graveyard wasn't so far from the place. Though they were sharing CeCe's bed, Rocky didn't wake up when she got out of bed, the moment after Rocky fell asleep.

There was a loud crash from the other room and Rocky sat straight up. She looked to CeCe, but realized she wasn't there. "CeCe?"

Maybe something just fell over and she's in the bathroom, Rocky thought. She slipped out of bed and peeked out of the door. It was dark but she could see a figure in the kitchen. "CeCe?"
The figure turned to her. "Rocky? What're you doing up?"

"I heard something. Are you okay?" Rocky asked, walking to the kitchen. She saw a glass all over the floor and water everywhere.

"I wanted a glass of water and I accidentally dropped it." CeCe explained, rather too quickly.

Rocky started picking up the glass. "Ceece you've got to be careful with glass. You can- ow!" Rocky cut her fingertip on one of the shards.

"You can cut your finger while ranting at your friend?" CeCe finished for her.

Rocky glared up at the redhead, staring at her. Then CeCe's face flashed, momentarily, into a skull.

Rocky jumped up and moved away. "Um. Ce-CeCe what happened to your face?"

"I wish you wouldn't have stared." CeCe said.

"What's going on CeCe?" Rocky asked. She couldn't decide if she was more worried or scared.

"Well I guess there's no harm in telling you, seeing as how dawn is in a couple of hours." CeCe said.

Rocky looked at the clock, knowing she couldn't see it in the dark. CeCe looked at her.

"Your friend fell into my grave. And as long as she stays in my grave I have her body. When dawn comes, she'll die and I'll be CeCe. Permanently." CeCe said, her voice sounding dark and eerie.

"What? There's no way I'm letting you get away with this. All I have to do is find the grave and pull CeCe out." Rocky said. She glared at the impersonator, not long enough to do the freaky skull trick again, then walked to the door and out.

As she left CeCe called out, "You'll never find her."

As CeCe (the real CeCe) woke up, she felt a pounding in her head. She put a hand to her head and groaned. "Oh, what happened?"

She licked her lips and tasted dirt. Spitting out the bad taste, she sat up and looked around. She was in a hole. "Oh great did I fall in a grave and knock myself out. Wait. Rocky?" She looked behind her but didn't see her best friend.

"Rocky!" After no answer she sighed. "She probably thinks I played a joke on her and ditched her and she left already."

Why do I have a bad feeling in my gut? She thought.

Rocky squeezed through the gate. She had half an hour still six o'clock and sunrise. (I think that's when it gets light out but I'm not sure exactly. So just pretend.) She realized that she had to move fast. After a few steps she stopped. There where ghosts walking around the graveyard. They looked like people, but they were transparent.

She heard CeCe's voice whisper, "You'll never find her in time."

"Shut up!" She shouted.

She took a step and got massive cold chills. She shuddered.
"Hey! Watch where you're going!" She turned and saw a young woman, maybe in her mid-twenties, floating there. She was wearing Victorian era dress. And her feet didn't touch the ground.

"Oh, I-I'm sorry. I'm just in a hurry I need to find my friend before dawn." Rocky said hurriedly. Then rushed off before anything else could be said.

"CeCe!" Rocky frowned when she didn't hear a reply. "CeCe where are you!"

As she passed a grave she stopped when a light caught her eye. Laying at the bottom was her flashlight.

This is around where I lost CeCe earlier. She's got to be close!

Rocky walked in the opposite direction of the flashlight.

CeCe looked around the grave for something to help her crawl out. If she didn't get home before her mom she'd be in so much trouble!

She faintly heard her name in the wind. She stopped moving for a few moments. After not hearing it she started moving some dirt around, hoping to dig up something.

"CeCe!" She knew she heard it that time.

"Rocky?"

"CeCe? Ceece where are you?" Rocky shouted. She sounded far away.

"I fell in a grave! Come help me out!"

"Keep talking CeCe I can't find-ah!"

"Rocky?" After not getting an answer, CeCe looked up and saw some of the grass was hanging over the edge. She grabbed it and, hoping it'd keep her up, used it to help her climb up. When she could she threw her leg over the edge and laid on the grass just as the sun came up. She stood up and shouted for Rocky.

After a minute she walked out from behind a tree. "CeCe! Thank God you're okay!" Rocky rushed to her and hugged her.

"Rocky! Are you okay? I heard you scream." CeCe said worriedly, looking Rocky up and down for a sign of her being injured.

Rocky shook her head, "I just tripped over a tombstone."

"I thought something bad happened. Come on let's go home before mom gets back."

Though CeCe didn't know it, just a few feet away, Rocky Blue was laying in a grave. The girl next to CeCe looked at the grave and grinned.

A/N That's it. Hope it's good I don't think it is. I think I could've done better.
