Once upon a time there were 2 kids who were left alone because there parents were out of town. The 2 kids decided to play a game, one named Kate and one named jose. Kate went into the attic and got a board game and she redid it. Jose said "Kate what are you doing to the board game?" Kate said, "I'm redoing it so we both write a couple spooky places down and which ever one we land on is where we stay the night". They both continued to finish the board and then they rolled the dice and it landed on graveyard or haunted hospital. Kate said "well we got to break the tie and get our final answer before it gets late". Jose tried rock paper scissors and he lost meaning Kate won and they were spending the night at the graveyard. They both ran up stairs and packed there bags for the night. Kate ran outside and got there bikes out and screamed JOSE"! Jose ran downstairs fast and said "what? Why did you scream?" Kate said "to get your blood pumped haha" Jose got on his bike and they both took off to the graveyard. By the time they got there it was 8pm. They got there bikes parked and lights on but the next 30 mins the lights shut off. Kate said "not funny Jose". Jose was no where near. Kate got a little bit shaky and was scared too tell Jose maybe it was a bad idea til she heard a scream. Kate said "oh no that's Jose what do I do?" She ran down the side of graves looking for Jose but he was no where to be found. She eventually seen cop lights and then she got really nervous. The cop walked up to Kate and said "hello young lady what seems to be the reason you are in here past 9pm?" Kate stuttered to answer but knew she had to talk for the sake of Jose. Kate said "hi um i was here with my friend and he disappeared and I'm really scared". He just looked at her and said "well the camera shows you walking in by yourself there was no one else that came in with you". She then looked and noticed that all Jose stuff was gone. Her mind was blowing like where did he go? Did something bad happen? The officer then said "lets get you back home" the officer gladly took Kate home. when Kate got home she then got on the internet and saw a page all about Jose and that he has been dead for 2 years now... Kate got up and ran downstairs and looked all over for any thing of joses and there was nothing as if he never exsisted. Kate called her mom and no answer she called 2 more times then left a voicemail and said "you need to come home right now mom its about Jose"! Her mom called her back an hour later and said "what are you talking about? Who's Jose?" Kate just thought is this all a dream? Is there something wrong with me? Kate's mom came home the next day and all the doors were locked. She seemed to get worried and dung through her purse to get the house key but couldn't seem to find it. She checked all the windows and they were all covered and shut locked. She started to call Kate's name. Kate didn't seem to answer at all not even answer her phone. Kate's mom waited 2 hours then called 911. She explained the situation and the officer said "well i dealt with Kate yesterday and she acted really strange and was trying to say she had a friend named Jose with her but the camera just showed kate". Kate's mom thought this is something to do with Someone name Jose but i never heard of them til now. The officer called another officer over and then they decdied to talk this over they both walked back to Kate's mother and asked her to call Kate's phone. Kate's mother called her phone and they heard it ringing near by. They followed the sound and it came from the garbage can and Kate's shoe was in there too. The officers decided to make it a crime scene and gathered the evidence. They checked with the near by neighbors to see if anyone heard or seen anything suspicious. One lady had a camera and the cops checked the footage and seen kate running from something that the camera didn't catch. They rewatched it over and over and listened and kate repeated "Jose stop, stop it Jose". They didn't see anyone besides kate so they decided to take kate to the hospital to be checked when they get ahold of her. Later that evening kate came home and kates mom took her to the hospital where they admitted her. Kate started to say to her doctor "please you cant leave me alone Jose is going to get me he's going to kill me he said". Her doctor gave her a shot to calm her down. The doctor began her testing and kate was very calm at first but then out of no where the doctor fainted and fumes came through the vent. Kate was not into the medicine to much at this point but tried getting out of the room cause she felt Jose in there with her. Kate busted the door and ran out screaming for someone to help and then kate ran into a room that didn't lead anywhere else, she turned around and knew she was trapped. She begged Jose to not hurt her, Jose wondered why she thought he was going to hurt her. He asked her "why are you afraid of me?" Kate said "your dead your not really here only i can see you, why?" He said "your my sister I'm supposed to be with you i know you don't believe me but i am i was put up for adoption because mom wanted a girl only" kate didnt believe him til Jose gave her a bunch of information that proved it and kate was devastated that her mom did that to him. Jose said "you see I'm just here to protect you and mom isn't who she says she is".
