"Hanna. Look at me. Hanna!" Mandy shouted.

"Oh no don't tire yourself Mandy. She's not going to listen to you. She will obey only my words. She is just being controlled by someone else." Ricky said.

"What did you do to her?" Alex said with anger.

"Chill young man. It's not my fault. She is listening to everything I'm saying. I can't do anything." Ricky explained with a cunning smile.

"How can you do this? You are ill." Alex exclaimed.

"Oh dear. I already told you I did nothing..... Actually... I did only one thing. I summoned a spirit. That's all. There rest was done by the spirit. I was just giving commands." Ricky explained.

"Oh my God. You play with spirits?" Mrs Lotus asked.

"It's not a game! It's real life. Who are you by the way?" Ricky asked.

"I don't care who you are. I'm wasting my time here. Let the show begin. Hanna........ Take out your clothes." Ricky commanded.

"What?" Alex shouted.

Hanna walked until she reached the middle of the room. She was in front of the cell in which the others were captivated.

"I'm going to rape her in front of you." Ricky said and then started to laugh.

"Nonsense!" Gerald exclaimed.

"Why are you doing this?" Mandy asked.

"It's simple. I need 13 bodies to complete my ritual. After that I'll be immortal. I already have 12 bodies. I need only one. That is Hanna... Oh well. If you want your daughter safe, you can have her back. But in return you will have to offer me one of the ladies who are with you." Ricky said.

"What the hell?" Gerald shouted.

Mrs Lotus and her daughter started to sweat.

"Okay then. I think you chose to give me Hanna............. Start!" He said as he snapped his fingers.

Ricky went towards the large container which Gerald noticed in the corner of the room. He opened it and to their surprise, they saw dead bodies of women, and even a man. Among them there was Jenna.

"So whatever Jenna said was true. You need dead bodies of women right? But why is there a man in you 'collection'? Mandy asked.

"Oh don't bother. He is a male but not a normal one. I guess you understood." Ricky said as he winked at them.

Hanna was going to open the buttons of her shirt but just then, Mrs lotus shouted and Hanna stopped on hearing her voice.

"You are such a disgusting person. You went to such extents only to become immortal. What do you want to by staying alive!" She shouted.

Just as Mrs Lotus finished her sentence, Hanna looked at her fixedly and started to walk towards the cell.

"Wait. What is Hanna doing?" Gerald said in Mandy ears.

"Where are you going Hanna. I ordered you to strip yourself!" Ricky exclaimed.

However Hanna did not listen to Ricky. She continued to walk towards the cell and finally stopped as she reached near it.
She looked at Mrs Lotus closely with her green eyes.

"Stacy?" She said.

"Hanna. Come back here and do what you are asked to!" Ricky shouted.

"Wait. Who is Stacy?" Alex asked.

"My name is Stacy." Mrs Lotus said. "But how do you know my name?" She asked Hanna.

"Stacy.... Stacy...." Hanna said as tears rolled down her eyes.

"Hanna!" Ricky shouted and grabbed Hanna's hand to pull her but could not succeed. Hanna was so heavy that Ricky, being a well-built man could not move her from her position. He tried again and as soon as he touched her, Hanna turned her head and looked at Ricky fixedly with green spooky eyes.

"Don't touch me." She said in a grumpy voice.

Her voice sounded like the one of a male and left everyone trembling with fear.

"Hanna, what is happening to you?" Mandy asked.

"Hanna. You are supposed to listen to my words. I hope you remember our deal!" Ricky said.

"And do you remember our deal?" Hanna said as she pushed Ricky with an enormous force.

Ricky fell down. He tried to get up but he couldn't. Something was preventing him to move.

"What the hell are you doing?" Ricky shouted.

"You are asking what I am doing? Ask what did YOU do? When I was summoned, you told me that you will take care of my family if I do whatever you would say. That was our deal. But...did you take care of my family? No! You did not! Instead....you brought them here and captured them in this cell!" Hanna said, still in a male voice.

"Your family?" Mandy asked.

"Yes!" Hanna answered.

She then approached Mrs Lotus.
"Stacy... I am your husband." She said.

"What.. No...no this can't be possible." Mrs Lotus said.

"Believe me. I'm your husband." She tried to convince her.

"But.. You are Hanna. No!" Mrs Lotus answered.

"Yes. I am dead now. I'm a spirit. I am possessing Hanna's body. But believe me. I'm Henry. Your husband....your late husband." She said.

"This means that, Jenna was right. We did help Mrs Lotus to meet her husband. Ricky is not her husband,but, the spirit is." Alex said.

"But...how are.....you like....like this?" Mrs Lotus asked with a trembling voice.

"Dad?" Miranda said.
"Yes mom. That's dad. His eyes were always green." Miranda said.

"Miranda?" Hanna said. "You were so little when I last saw you." She said.

"Yes dad. I missed you so much." Miranda said as her tears fell from her eyes.

Hanna broke the cell with her hands and entered. She hugged Miranda tightly.

"I miss you too my child." She said, still in a male voice.

"Dad. I'm pregnant." Miranda said.

Hanna looked at her. Her green eyes sparkled.

"Everything has changed since you were gone Henry." Mrs Lotus said.

Alex, Mandy and Gerald said nothing. They only stood there. They could feel that everything would soon be fine but, scared whether that demon possessing Hanna's body would harm her.

"Dad, why did you leave us." Miranda asked.

"I didn't leave you my child. Someone killed me. I was given a perfume. A geranium perfume. But there was poison mixed in it. As soon as I sprayed some on me, my body burnt. I was in a lot of pain. When the pain finally ended, I found out that I was dead." The spirit in Hanna's body explained.

"But.. Who did that? And why are you harming this girl." Mrs Lotus said.

"I don't know who killed me. I was summoned by Ricky. He proposed me a deal. He told me to accomplish every task he would give and in return, he would take care of you. I accepted. But then I found that he was making me do evil works. A deal is a deal. I could not back out." He said.

"Wait. Where is Ricky?" Gerald said.

Ricky was not there. He ran away.

"I will not spare him. I will find him and kill him." The spirit said.

"But...that man never helped us. I met him for the first time." Mrs Lotus said.

"I know. He lied to me. He did not keep his promise. But now I will show him his true status." He answered.

Hanna took 4 steps backward and raised her head upwards. Just as she did so, her eye lenses separated into two and one of them slowly disappeared. Hanna's eyes were back to its original colour and then she fell unconscious. Mandy and the two others quickly ran towards her.

"Hanna. Wake up!" Alex shouted.

Just then, they saw a shadow. A creepy one. They were scared to death.

"I won't hurt you anymore. You are the truthful. I will now deal with the liar." They heard a voice and then suddenly everywhere was calm.

Mandy was worried for his daughter.
"She is not waking up. Please help." He said.

"I have water in my bag." Miranda said and took out a bottle of water from her bag and lent it to Mandy.

Mandy sprinkled some on Hanna's face. The latter finally opened her eyes.

"What happened?" She asked in a low voice.

"Everything is fine Hanna." Mandy said.............
