We jumped in [him in the driver's seat], cranked up the ignition, then took off like 2 bats out of hell! I looked back at the house from the back window...and I SWEAR I saw flashes of agonized ghostly faces screaming in anguish, flashing before my eyes! Then, what I can only explain as some sort of kinetic FORCE shot from the house, blowing the front door off its hinges, hitting the back of the car as we sped down the dirt road leading to the main road ahead! The kinetic energy caused Riordan to lose control of the car for a moment, threatening us to crash into one of the many trees that lines the drive! But he was quickly able to regain control [like driving on a patch of ICE], as the house disappeared in the distance! "Are you okay...?" asked Riordan, once we skidded onto the main road, frantically! "ye...yeah...!" I answered [as we barely missed careening into an oncoming car], just GLAD to be out of that house...! We drove until Wadsworth Mansion was no longer in our sights! I could see that Rick was terribly shaken, his otherwise strong hands gripping the steering wheel so tightly that his knuckles had turned chalk white! He had a crazed [panicky] look in his eyes, as he tried to figure out what to DO next...? "No one's gonna believe this...!" he said [bug-eyed], doing over 90mph in a 65 zone! "Hell...I don't believe it myself!" he laughed [as if losing his mind]! "Slow down, Riordan...!" I warned, noting how erratic he was driving! "HOW'R we gonna explain this to anyone...?" he asked [paying me no attention]! "They're gonna think we're MAD...! Or worse...think we're making it up!" he added, glancing over at ME for a reaction...! "LOOK OUT!" I yelled, just as a pickup truck turned into our path! Eric swerved to keep from crashing into the pickup, veered us into a corn field...!...as we began mowing down crops, tossing ears of corn everywhere! We went a couple of yards before coming to a full stop [with corn littered all over the hood and roof of the car]! Riordan and I were both panting heavily, both frantic at our near-death experience! "Are you okay...?" he asked, turning towards me, seeing if I was still alive...? "Yeah..." I managed to answer, feeling a slight bump on my forehead from hitting the windshield! "I'm sorry..." apologized Riordan, reaching up to touch it [as I flinched back]! "...'they' were AFTER us...!" "`They' can't REACH us off manor grounds!" I assured, reminding him that the ghosts were in THE HOUSE...!...and houses don't move! Riordan looked skeptical! "I DREAMT I was home..." he explained to me [eyes still looking crazed]! "...in bed with my girlfriend..., then all of a sudden I wasn't anymore...! I was back in Wadsworth Manor getting molested by GHOSTS! "It seemed SO REAL...!" "Yeah...that's where they GET you...!" I agreed [having had my own mind tricks played on me]! "But we're NOT in Wadsworth now..." I insisted, "...you're NOT dreaming!" "How can you be SURE...?" he asked [seriously uncertain whether he was awake or sleep]! I reached over ond PINCHED his arm real hard..., "Ouch!" leaving a mark! "You're awake!" I assured [having always wanted to DO that to someone]! Riordan looked in the rearview mirror..., then turned around to in disbelief, staring at something in the distance...! "What about HIM...?" he asked, as I turned to look...!...seeing a MAN standing at the opening of the corn patch we mowed down! "Is HE real too...?" asked Riordan [unable to trust his senses]! "That's the GUY from the pickup truck..." I assured Rick, "...he's probably wondering if we're alright or need medical help...?" Riordan put the car in reverse...then hit the gas as we started driving backwards towards the man! He stepped on the gas, going faster and faster in reverse, looking as if he might PLOW the man over! The man leaped out of the way at the last second, rolling out over the ground as Riordan's car came to a stop! The stranger and my EYES locked [while he was still on the ground, staring up at me]! I wanted to apologize to him, but Riordan out the gear in `drive' and took off down the street like a bat out of hell [burning rubber]! We got to HIS apartment not soon after NOON, as he escorted me in, closing and locking all the windows and doors, drawing the shades so no one [or nothing] could look in and GET us! "You can stay here for a few days..." he said, walking into the kitchen [as I found a seat on the sofa]! "...until you decide what you're gonna do...!" he added on the return, holding 2 cold beers in his hands [passing me one]! I took it and popped the cap [although I needed something stronger]! "'DO'...?" I asked, turning the bottle up to my lips! `I OWN a haunted mansion...! I'm unemployed! Broke! And my CAR'S back on haunted grounds! What else CAN I do...?" I asked [fed-up]! "Sell it..." said Riordan, flopping down in a chair opposite me! "...sell it and hope that's the END of it!" he suggested! "Yeah..." I agreed, "...and HOPE the shopping center they plan to build there doesn't become haunted as well...!" I added, sarcastically! "Either that...OR let it continue to stand there rotting with AGE...!" advised Rick! THAT definitely sounded like a plan...except it also meant I'd STAY broke! "Useless inheritance!" I sighed [thinking of all the money I could have had]! "Nothing beats your SANITY!" reasoned Riordan, as our eyes locked! "I know!" I agreed [having thought I'd gone insane there for moment] {ch-5}! Riordan took a big [deep] swig from his bottle [drinking nearly half]! "Well...you can sleep HERE..." he suggested [referring to the sofa I was sitting on], "...OR we can share the bed...?" he offered casually! "It's BIG enough for both of us!" he assured! "Thanks..." I said, preferring the bed [not wanting to be left alone]! "...but what about your girlfriend...?" I inquired! "I'll tell her to stay HOME tonight...!" he said, pulling his cell phone from his pocket! "It's WORKING now!" he sighed [recalling how we couldn't get a signal at the mansion]! He hit his GF's name (Sam) and the phone instantly dialed her up! "Hey babe..." he said, before getting up and walking off [for privacy]! I watched him walk out onto the terrace of his apt., telling Sam how `the case' was more confusing than he anticipated, and how he sorry he was that he missed her last night...! I started to feel BAD for myself, having no one to call, no one to miss me! The closest thing I had to a lover was the pizza delivery guy {chp-1}, and I doubted even HE remember me without having to order a `meat-lovers with extra sauce]...! Riordan came back into the apt. a moment later...! "She's okay with it!" he said [tucking his phone in his back pocket]! "She knows I'm here...?" I asked curiously! "Of course!" answered Riordan [having nothing to hide]! "She knows I'm GAY...?" I inquired, skeptically! "Of course...not!" he answered [so much for honesty]! "What difference would it make in the long and short of it anyway...?" he inquired [implying nothing would happen anyway]! "Just asking!" I said [not wanting a debate]! Riordan showed me into the bedroom, were WE would be sleeping! It was still early [11:20am], but after all we'd been through, we were BEAT! I asked him if it would be alright if I went to bed now...? "Sure!" responded Riordan, as I started to get undressed [picking a side to sleep on]! "I'm going to take a SHOWER...!" he added, leaving the room, as I stripped down to my underwear and climbed under the covers [the bed smelling like him]! Riordan went into the bathroom and closed the door, staring at himself in the mirror, recalling everything that happened to him over the past 12hrs or so! He tried to wash the memories out of his mind by taking a scolding hot shower! He dried himself off and wrapped a towel around his waist before coming back into the bedroom to pull underwear from one of his dresser-drawers, sliding them on under his towel [incase I was awake and faking]! I was already sound asleep by the time he climbed into bed with me, staying on the FAR side, wanting to keep a professional distance between us! As we slept, my dreams became nightmares as I relived the horrors that happened to me in that house...!...feeling evil spirits clawing at my body, trying to ravage my SOUL from within! Sometime during my dream Riordan shook me awake, reminding me it was just a nightmare and NOT reality! I could tell he was trying to believe the words himself as he said them, likely having just had a nightmare of his own! Hidden behind his confidence was a little FEAR in his eyes, indicating he was going through the same thing I was! We settled back into bed, but this time with him scooting closer towards me for comfort, placing an arm around me as he pulled my back in to his chest [protectively]! This was an ODD display for 2 men, but who was I to judge OR complain...? We started to settle back into sleep...when I started to feel the undeniable poke of his erection against my ass cheeks! "I'm sorry..." he said, backing away so I wouldn't feel it! "...sometimes it has a mind of its own!" "It's okay, Riordan..." I assured, pushing back against it! "...we're both adults, right?" "Right!" he replied, as he started grinding his hard-on against my ass [in spoon position]! I could feel Riordan's breath on the back of my neck as his breathing started to deepen! Then I felt his lips on my shoulder, his hand caressing my stomach and bare chest, searching for my nipples! "Are...you SURE we should be doing this...?" I whispered, turning my head towards him slightly, as he buried his face in my neck! "After everything we've been through..." he whispered back, "...I think we NEED this for our sanity!" I moaned softly as Riordan started to kiss about my face, neck, and shoulder! I reached back behind me, running my fingers through his blonde hair, his mustache tickling my sensitive skin! Riordan turned my head more towards him...then leaned in to KISS me gently on the lips! At first it was a dry kiss [lips to lips], but then he slipped his tongue into my mouth, as I started to suckle it! We kissed heatedly for awhile, all while he ground his hips into my ass, thrusting his hard-on against my butt as his free hand slipped down over my waist, pushing the back of my draws down off my hips, exposing my bare buttock to his dick! Riordan somehow managed to free his erection as well, sliding it up between my ass cheeks, pushing in deep into my crack! We moaned softly in each other's mouths as his dickhead wedged against my asshole, trying to find the entrance! Riordan broke from kissing long enough to SPIT into his hand before reaching down between us to SMEAR the slick saliva over my fuck-hole...!...then he re-aimed his dickhead as my entryway and started to PRY its way into me from behind! "Ohgod...god..." I groaned, breaking the kiss, feeling his big dick starting to penetrate me! I could feel the head popping into my rectal ring [stinging like all hell], then felt him slide all the way into me, burying his dick in deep! Riordan moaned as he rewrapped his arm around me protectively, then went back to kissing my neck and shoulders as he ground his pelvic bone into my butt! I could his dick churning about inside me, moving my vitals around to make room for him! Then he pulled back, sliding half of his 9 inches out of me before pushing them back in, fucking me slowly, the head bumping well up into my gut! "...damn man..." I moaned as he began to fuck me, his fingers toying with my nipples as he started sliding in and out of my ass! "...don't stop...!" I pleaded, as my asshole adjusted to his dick, starting to become more receptive as his strokes got easier to take! I reached down and started stroking my own dick, masturbating myself while the officer fucked me! "I won't!" he assured as he kept thrusting, building towards a climax, using my ass as a substitute for his missing girlfriend! I could feel Riordan's arm holding me tighter as his fuck thrusts began to increase in pace, becoming more prominent! I lifted one leg and draped it back over his thigh, giving him better access into my rectum, allowing him to go deeper! I stroked myself faster as the need to cum became greater, feeling my own orgasm starting to come on quickly! Riordan stopped kissing me and started concentrating on his fucking, driving his dick through me steadily, causing my hole to open up for him more! "ohgod..." he groaned, gripping my hip, making me arch my back to jet my butt back towards him more, letting him pulverize my anus with hard fast strokes! I was jacking my own dick faster, feeling my orgasm hit as my asshole suddenly clamped down around his plunging prick as my own dick surged in my stroking hand, shooting 8 ropes of cum out over the bed sheets! "urrrhhhh...urrrhhhhggg...URRHHHHHHHHHGGG...!!" I grunted and groaned as my body tensed and reacted! I could feel my asshole flex and spasm wildly during climax, as Riordan continued to fuck me straight through my orgasm, thrusting harder and faster until his own orgasm hit...!...him suddenly ramming his dick in me deep, holding it inside me! "ARRHHHHHHHHHHHHHGGGGGGGG...!!!" he yelled as he came, grinding against me roughly, bucking behind me as the cum shot out of him violently! He kept his dick in me as his orgasm started to subside, holding me tightly again as we settled back in position [still wrapped in each other's arms securely]! He buried his face back in my neck, panting heavily until his breathing returned to normal! We stayed that way until we drifted back to sleep, me with my hand wrapped around my softened [leaking] dick, and him with his prick still buried in my ass! +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I found myself sleeping in Wadsworth Manor again, in the big creepy canopy bed, the balcony doors open as a light breeze blowing the sheer curtains inward [ghostly]! I was vaguely aware that the covers were being slowly pulled off of my body! I was naked underneath, and my legs were slowly being pulled apart and lifted until my ass was exposed! I felt something pressing in against my anus, but there was no one else in the room with me! Strong hands pressed my legs down against my chest [doubling me in half], as something BIG pushed its way into my butt, penetrating my anus to wedge into my bowels! I felt SO full and stuffed! It started thrusting through me, stretching me out wide! I looked down to see my asshole had formed a gigantic O, as something thick [but invisible] started sliding in and out of me! Helpless I just laid back and closed my eyes, enduring! I could feel the hands tightening on the backs of my thighs, holding me in place, pounding into me harder! I opened my eyes and looked up to see Riordan overtop of me [what-the-fuck]! Was I still dreaming? Was I having another nightmare? Riordan was leaning in over me, his hands weighing on the backs of my thighs, holding me down while he fucked me, his face twisted lustfully as he thrust his hips into me to drive his 9" dick in and out of my gut [again]! "Urrhhh...fuck me...!" I moaned, realizing it wasn't a dream, coming out of my sleeping state, recognizing Riordan's apartment, his bed, lying underneath him! Riordan was looking down in-between us, watching his dick disappear into back up into my body, spearing his entire rod through me like a lance, fucking me deeply! It felt wonderful! My own dick hardened immediately, stretching out over my abdomen, throbbing for release as his picked up speed and started banging his hips into me roughly! We looked into each other's eyes, having a moment of clarity! Riordan leaned in and KISSED me again on the lips! I accepted his warm wet tongue as it slipped into my mouth, sucking it sweetly as he continued to fuck into me harder, long-dicking me with really deep strokes [coming from up north]! I wrapped my arms around his neck, moaning into his mouth as his fuck-thrusts forced the air from my lungs! "Don't stop, Riordan..." I groaned between kisses, needing this fuck more than I realized! "...you feel so good inside me...! Fuck me! Don't stop!" "I won't baby..." whispered Riordan, drilling his taster deeper into my open mouth! "...I won't ever stop! You feel good too! I loving fucking you!" "Oooohh..." I moaned as Riordan broke the kiss and buried his face in my neck! Lying chest to chest now he continued to hump into me, driving his hips back and forth, my legs pinned back farther to give him total access to my vulnerable hole! I could feel his dick moving through me, taking control of my body, owning it, even as MY dick lay trapped between us, throbbing between our bellies! I ran my hands up and down Rick's back as he thrust all into me, his earlier load acting as lubricant, coating his slick dick as it sped out of me back and forth! "ooohhh fuck..." I heard him groan, as he lifted back up into pushup-position [giving himself more leverage] and started fucking me rapidly! I knew he was close to coming began as I reached down and grasped my now free erection and started stroking myself off madly! The fucking continued for another minute or two as Riordan's strokes became erratic! "...urrrhhhhhh fuck..." he groaned, closing his eyes as he doubled his efforts, pounding me into the mattress! I was stroking myself off rapidly, feeling my dick stiffen just as the first of 5 spurts of cum shot out of my flaring dick, arching up over my stomach to splatter against my chest! Just then Riordan's dick got steely hard as he rammed himself in my rectum! "...ARRHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGGGGGG...!!" he screamed as he came a second time, the hot cum pouring into me in thick gushes! I watched him strain as he came, grinding his pelvic bone into me, veins popping out of his reddening face and neck...just before he collapsed weakly on top of me, too exhausted to move! We stayed like that for a few minutes [feeling each other's heartbeats pounding against our chests] until Rick's dick softened and he finally pulled out of me...flopping down in bed next to me [on his back]! We laid there in total silence, staring up at the ceiling, wondering WHAT to do next...? "uh...you know I'm NOT gay, right...?" he asked [breaking the silence in the room], but adding majorly to the awkwardness! "I don't know WHY what just happened did [TWICE, I might add]..." he wondered aloud to himself! "...but I don't want to HURT you...!" he added, glancing over towards me [with his big blue eyes]! "No `hurt' taken..." I said, getting up out of the bed! "...I know you're not gay...! I understand the situation...I've dealt with DL guys before...! We both needed something to help GROUND us in the moment! I'm not offended at all! In fact I'm grateful it happened! Thanks!" I concluded, before walking off to the bathroom to take a much needed shower! Behind closed doors I stood under the showerhead [my hands braced against the shower wall in front of me] and let myself breakdown! I was in a strange town, homeless, with no transportation back to Philly! What's more I believe I'm falling in love with a straight white hick cop [that can't be good]! I felt like I was falling down a bottomless pit, falling endlessly, unable to save myself! Riordan knocked on the door...! "You alright in there, Thurman...?" he asked, concerned! "Yeah!" I yelled back! "Be out in a minute!" I lied, knowing it would take like 10mins to get my shit together! "Okay!" he responded! "I'm going to the diner to pick up a couple of takeout platters! Maybe we can figure out our next move? You want anything specifically...?" he asked politely! "I like the meatloaf!" I yelled back, finishing up my shower as I washed all the sticky cum and lube off my body! I exited the shower and dried off [using Riordan's towel], then walked out into the bedroom to get dressed! I took the time [while alone] to look around his nice neat apartment, finding pictures of his pretty blonde haired GF positioned along his wall unit! There were pictures of them together, pictures of her solo, and pics of her with what I guess was her [or his] parents...? There were more pics of her than him, so I figured maybe SHE was responsible for the decoration...?...letting the competition know he was taken [dually noted]! I was just getting ready to go in his closets and REALLY snoop around...when I heard him return with the food! We sat down in the half-wall dividing his living room from his kitchen, and unpacked our platters! He'd got me meatloaf [like I'd asked for], and chicken parmesan for himself! He got 2 regular forks from the drawer, then popped open 2 beers and faced each other [sitting on stools] while we ate! make breakfast, alright...? he said through the door, before walking off! "So...what do you want to do...?" he asked, spooning buttery mashed potatoes into his mouth! "I dunno..." I admitted [having no clue]! "Do you want to sell the property...? Renovate it? Leave it alone? Burn it to the ground? What...?" he insisted, taking a deep swig of beer to wash it down! "I dunno..." I repeated, cutting into my meatloaf! "...any suggestions...?" Riordan started cutting his chicken into bite sizes with his knife and fork! "I'm still inclined to call a priest for an exorcism of the property..." he suggested! "...what harm could it do...?" he asked! "Do you know anyone specifically...?" I asked, curiously! "Well...I haven't been to his church in years..." blushed Riordan [now having a real reason to go confess his sins], (after having sex with a gay man)! "...but I'm sure we can probably get reverend Duval to go out and bless the house...cleansing it of any spirits! I'm sure he would help!" "I can't believe this is happening...!" I said [dropping my fork and holding my head in my hands], watching my life go up in flames! "Hey...you're not ALONE here, Thurman..." reasoned Riordan, reaching out to grasp my wrist, reminding me that HE was beside me all night! "We'll get through this..." he assured, "...together!" I smiled, feeling an instant warmth in his presence! Riordan smiled back [innocently], as images of us intertwined in his bed flashed through his mind, causing him to reel back [putting distance between us]! Just then his cell phone rang, as he reached into his pocket to retrieve it! He looked at the caller ID, I could tell by the confused look on his face that it was a GF! "Hey bae..." he said into the receiver, turning his back to me for privacy! "...yeah..." he responded, "...yeah, I'm still working!" he said [not lying exactly]! "I know, baby, I miss you too!" he whispered [before walking to the far side of the room]! "I promise I'll make it up to you when I'm done! I'm not sure. It's VERY important! It has to do with The Wadsworth House!" he continued, stepping out onto his terrace [so I couldn't hear anymore]! I looked over at the time, realizing it was only 4pm! There was still about 4 hours of sunlight before dark! Riordan walked back in a minute later... "Women trouble...?" I asked [reading his face]! "No..." he chuckled [placing his phone on the counter to continue eating]! "...Sam, my girlfriend, just misses me is all!" he explained! "I'm supposed to move into HER place this weekend..." he admitted, "...she thinks I'm purposely bullshitting so I can renege on our plans!" "Are you?" I asked [as we ate]! Riordan looked at me oddly! "No..." he answered [sounding insulted]! "...THIS is really important..." he added [staring me straight in the eye]! "...isn't it...? You want my help to get rid of these ghosts, right...?" "Yeah...of course I do..." I admitted, "...but I don't wanna block you plans if you and Sam are setting up HOUSE somewhere...!" I said, feeling guilty for fucking him less than an hour ago! "I don't wanna come between anything!" "You CAN'T..." assured Riordan, "...I'm not GAY, Thurman..." he reiterated [annoyingly], drilling the fact into my head like a sledgehammer! "...I can't explain WHY I did what I did...only suffice to say it won't happen again! You understand that, right...?" he asked, looking for my cooperation! "Yeah...of course I do..." I said [realizing once the `case' was over, so was I]! "...maybe we should looking into finding that priest now...?...so we can both get ON with our lives...!" I suggested, prompting Riordan to react! "Yeah..." he said, wiping his mouth with a napkin! "...I guess you're right..." he agreed, closing up his half-eaten container! "...let me take a shower real quick...and we can get this over with, possibly tonight!" he said, leaving abruptly to get ready! >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>O<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Somehow the tension between Riordan and me got thicker after we left the apartment [if possible]! I'm not sure if he was feeling GUILT for having fucked another man [having cheated on his GF], or if the whole idea of GHOST fucking us and having their ways with us were still playing turbulence in his brain...?...but he was a lot more reserved behind the wheel, not saying much of anything as we practically drove to the church in total silence! It was around 5pm when we entered the Christian Faith Church in the center of town! Riordan was in plain clothes [having called off (sick) from work], as he approached reverend Duval, asking to speak to him in total confidence...? The reverend was all ears after Riordan introduced ME as the owner of Wadsworth Manor! The reverend took us in the back [to his private quarters], offering us seats as Riordan began to ask the priest if `evil spirits' really existed...? The reverend talked about spirits in the bible, telling how they were often enemies of god who were former angels that had been cast out of heaven, reminding us that satan was once an angel! "Why do you ask...?" he wondered aloud? Riordan told him all about MY experience in the house, saying that I'd been accosted by ghosts [but leaving out all the rapes]! "Do you think you can perform some type of `exorcism' or `cleansing' of the house, father...? For Thurman's sake's?" he asked! "Well..." chuckled Duval, "...that's highly unorthodox, Rick..." declined the reverend, seeing it more as superstition than fact! "...its not like it always is in movies! `The Exorcist' has people believing it could be done in 2hrs or less! It's a lot more complicated than that! Its something that the church looks down upon, officially!" I started to leave... "Look reverend..." continued Riordan [trying again], "...Thurman's looking to SELL off the property to the county..." he lied Riordan [to a PRIEST], as I hadn't decided anything yet! "...but he doesn't want to feel responsible if someone gets hurt if the hauntings continue...!" "OH, I see..." sounded the reverend [seeing dollar signs for the county]! "...in that case, YES...I think I can convince the church to let me bless the house..." he offered, "...and hopefully some of that property could be donated to the church...?" he asked, hopeful! "We have been considering expanding our doors since our congregation has outgrown the main church!" Riordan looked at me for a response! "Yes! Of course!" I smiled [now lying to the priest as well]! "Good!" thrilled Duval! "When were you looking to have the property blessed?" he asked, curiously! "Now, if possible, reverend...?" said Riordan, as the reverend looked at his watch! "Oh...okay..." he said, gathering his things together! "...no time like the present, eh?" he laughed, as he armed himself with his trusty bible, cross, and holy water! "Lead the way, gentlemen!" he said, as we returned to Riordan's car and drove back out of town towards The Manor! The reverend spent the entire time [in the backseat] telling me what his plans would be for the `donated' property, going from a simple add-on to the church, to a massive second coming with daycare and recreation for the community, all contingent of course on how much of the property I would be willing to donate! Riordan and I glanced back and forth at each other a few times, as the reverends dreams and aspirations grew bigger and bigger the more he babbled on! As Wadsworth Manor started to come into view, the good reverend stopped talking and just sat in silence, staring! A moment later he closed his eyes and clutched his crucifix, muttering to himself as if praying! "Stop the car!" he said, out of the blue! "But we're almost there, reverend..." said Riordan, as he continued to drive on! "I SAID: STOP THE CAR!!" yelled the reverend, suddenly became belligerent! Riordan stopped the car just shy of turning into the drive leading to the house! The reverend got out of the backseat and STARED at the house in the distance! Riordan and I got out along with him, trying to see what HE was looking at...? "What is it, reverend...?" asked Riordan, staring down the long drive of aligned trees [obscuring most of the house]! "I sense something...foreboding!" said the reverend, holding onto his cross! "I hear voices...whispers...calling out to me to `go away and never come back'...!" I looked at Riordan, believing our story might finally have validity! "Do you think you can exorcise it, reverend...?" asked Riordan, curiously...? "NO!" answered Duval, turning back towards the car, reaching for the backdoor! "I'm sorry..." he started to say, when he was suddenly YANKED back in front of us...then DRAGGED across the paved street and down the dirt road to Wadsworth Manor, clawing and screaming the whole way! "REVEREND!" yelled Riordan, as we chased after him, trying to CATCH him as he was PULLED along the ground [as if dragged behind a fast moving car]! "REVEREND!" we screamed in unison [running after him], his body roughly banging up the front steps and into the open front doors of the house...!...the doors then suddenly SLAMMING shut on us just before we could reach them! "REVEREND! REVEREND!!" yelled Riordan frantically, banging on the doors, trying to bust THROUGH by pounding into the wood frame with his muscular shoulder! "We've GOT to get in there!" he told me, as we heard the good reverend's voice SCREAMING from inside the house! ____________________________ This story writing by EUGENE MARVIN aka NPHILLYDOGG@aol.com ____________________________ To leave comments, questions, and/or suggests, write me at address above, or hit me up on Facebook for updates on what I'm currently working on. ____________________________ IF YOU ENJOYED THIS STORY [AND OTHERS LIKE IT], MAKE SURE YOU DONATE TO NIFTY THIS MONTH...!
