Scourge had been sitting in the bathroom for a good fifteen minutes before he started cleaning himself and the bathroom up

He finished ten minutes later and decided to go to his room and change, he grabbed his back which he had discarded at the bathroom door and started walking to his room

He entered and took off his uniform, shoes and socks as well as his jacket, and took his shirt to the laundry to wash it since it had vomit on it, but as he walked past the kitchen he heard the tap running

He paused as he looked inside and saw the tap running and heard a soft giggling sound as he then heard the cupboard open and close

"For fucks sake, please tell me someone broke into the house and is messing with me or Mum and Dad are home and it's not another ghost" Scourge thought with an inward as he entered the kitchen and turned the tap off

Just then the cupboards and draws burst open and various items began floating at Scourge threateningly

"Oh shit" Scourge muttered as he swallowed a rising lump in his throat, but then the front door opened and the objects quickly went back into place and all the cupboards and draws closed as Scourge was left stunned for a second until he saw a blue blur go past him and head upstairs

He only took a deep breath to calm himself once again before he went to complete his task of washing his dirty uniform

"Hey Mum, Dad" Scourge greeted as he saw them walking into the house, with bags  filled with food and other items

"How was your day at school?" His mother smiled at him as she walked past him and kissed his forehead

"Uhh" Scourge paused as he contemplated on telling them about Fleetway, the ghost in the toilet, the ghosts Jet and Wave that were outside a cafe on the way home, the murdering ghost in the alley and the ghost he realised lived with them and just threatened him "good, good" Scourge lied as he sweat dropped as he heart started beating faster again

He parents looked at him confused for a moment but shrugged it off

"Any homework?" His father asked

"Yeah actually, I was just going to put some washing on before I started" Scourge replied

"Good boy" Scarlet smiled as she disappeared in the kitchen and Jules following shortly after

Scourge then went to the laundry and put his shirt and some other clothes into the was before heading back upstairs into his room, where he saw a small blue hedgehog looking at his the with curiosity

He stayed silent as he watched the other, he thought that this ghost would be older...but in fact he only looked to be six or seven years old, the child's back stayed facing him as he looked at Scourge's desk

"Okay...you live with a child ghost that threatened you in the kitchen and is now looking at your stuff...Fuck" Scourge thought, he was guessing this child was doing the same as every other ghost and staying invisible, but Scourge for some reason could see them "what are you doing?" He asked, finding it useless to stand there and stare at the poor child who met their demise at such a young age

The child in question, turned to Scourge with wide eyes, he stood, well floated in the spot as he looked at Scourge with fear and curiosity flashing in his eyes

"Y-you see me...?" The child trembled while trying to sound brace, Scourge frowned and paused as he walked into the room and closed his door

"Yeah...I can see you" Scourge mumbled "but uhh what are you doing?" The child hesitated for a second as he looked at the desk then back at Scourge

"I was looking at your things" was Scourge's answer, Scourge nodded as he went to sit on his bed

"What's your name....?" Scourge asked awkwardly, finding that talking to a ghost was an odd thing to do especially since this ghost was in his room, a child and he wasn't sure how long ago the kid died

"....it's Sonic, Scourge" the blue hedgehog replied after a bit of hesitation

"How do you know my name?" Scourge asked, and was greeted with a proud grin from the other

"I heard your parents saying you name!" Sonic replied happily "I like it! A lot!"

Scourge smiled as he felt the atmosphere in his room changing from a stiff cold flow to well a calming atmosphere that calmed his heart rate and mind

"Thanks, I like yours too" Scourge replied with a slight smile

"You remind me of my brother," Sonic started with a smile before he began to frown "I feel bad that I made him cry...."

Scourge could feel the sudden sadness and guilt radiating off of the small child as they continued to frown

"I just want to see him again and tell him I'm sorry and that it wasn't his fault that I died" the ghost sniffled "then maybe he'd be happy again"

"W-what happened?" Scourge asked "if you don't mind me asking" he corrected himself so he wouldn't upset Sonic any more than he already was

"....I don't trust you enough to tell you" Sonic stated as  he looked at Scourge, his body faded for a second before it went back to normal, Scourge could only nod, he couldn't force this...kid...to tell him anything and he knew that "But...I died ten years ago"

To Be Continued 
Thanks for reading
Okay I thought that before i start writing the next chapter that i'd say this, the next few chapters will have strong things that evolve around death, such items will include school lock downs, fires, murder, suicide and many other types of deaths, so if you are sensitive to any of
 these read at your own risk, that is why i'm writing this warning for those who read this; Thanks
