When I rise from my slumber I notice my room is dark, and the pulsing glow from my book is gone, I can tell because I had placed it on my nightstand the night before. I eye it blearily before putting on my glasses, and blinking in suprise to see the book...moving. The pages were shuddering and the covers snapping, and the book itself seemed to be losing to whatever outside force(or inside?) that was trying to destroy it. Just as I reach for the book to try and quell its jitters, the book explodes into a flurry of pages, and i catch a shred and all I can read is 'Alice' the rest was blank. As I raise my eyes from my palm, the scraps of paper begin to assemble themselves into the shape of what appears to be a globe. When all the paper formed the globe, it burst out in a searing red light, making me clench my eyes shut and hoping i hadn't gone blind. When I opened my eyes again several moments later, a little spirit was floating directly in front of my face, holding the knife it had found on my bed spread(I had just bought it from the Hunt Shop, I collect knives and weapons when I can) and about to lightly poke my head with the edge.
"Woah there! Get that thing out of my face, young lady," I begin to reprimand her without thinking, and somehow deciding along the way that she was a she and not an it or a he.
She looka at me mournfully, and cradles the knife to her tiny body with a pout, which makes me roll my eyes.
"Fine, you can have my BRAND NEW knife. Do you have any idea how much this Vorpal Blade cost?" A thought concerning why a little ghost was in my apartment, why she was adament about the knife(she held it tighter to her when I told her it was a Vorpal) . I looked at her, eying her and realizing that she was tinted red. "I know you just got up and all, but it's 2 am and I am dead tired. You can sleep with me IF you put the blade on the nightstand."
She looked at the bed, the stand, the bed, stand, bedstand- bed. She hovered over and dropped it on the wooden table, and hovered over to my bed and decided to hog my pillow.
"Just great. Someone just like me."
