Xing nodded. "Right." He said. Having him inside the bus is going to be harder because of all the people and close quarters. I'll have to make it quick....

Abby carefull made it on top of the bus.On topyoucould heare alor ofa bangs and such.

Xing looked up, worried about what was going on up there. "Abby, be careful..." He said quietly.

There was one last bang,the sprit thenentered inside thebus and startsed to ake the seast and windws rattel violently.

Abby made her way back into the bus just in time as the bus enterd a tunnel."great...."

"Right, my turn." Xing said, pulling two talismans out of the bundle. "Begone," he snapped, sending one of the talismans at the spirit, where it attached itself to the spirit's face.

Abby watched sadly as the spirt roared inpain makeing the bus aerve off thr road.

"Waaaugh!" Xing yelled as he got thrown into one of the walls of the bus. "Damn...that thing's really pissed."

He held the talisman out in front of him. "Fire." He said in sanscrit, and the talisman burst into blue flames. He faced his palm to the spirit as the flames formed into an orb in his palm.

A moment later the ball of blue fire shot towards the spirit.

Abby yelped as she hit the floor."oowww",she siad carefully getting u and looked up and aroundthento the spirot,she blinked able to understand it."Xingwait!",she said jumping up.

"What?" Xing asked, the ball of flame already having been released.

Abby watched as the spirit hit the ground but stood agin."it needs help",she said going towards it.

"Wait! Abby!" Xing shouted as she went towards the spirit. He frowned with worry. "Oh man...."

Abby looked to him."it'll be alright i promise",shesaid carefully going towrds the spirit who was freaking out."lissen ican understand you,but if you needour help you need to calm down ,and tellus whats made you like this"

Xing stayed back and watched, staying at the ready should anything go wrong. I hope Abby knows what she's doing. He thought.

Abbywalked towards it with coshon then stopped infront of it."what happened to you?",she asked.

The spirit snareled but stared Abby,then it calmed down."wh-what year is it?"

"2509." Xing said instinctively.

Abby looked back to Xing then back to the spirit.

The spirit lookeddown." ive been dead thislong?",he said to himself."has my item been returned to my wife yet?"

Abby looked to him."I dont know... whats our name and what happened to you?and what itemneeded to returned to your wife?"

Item? Wife? What's this guy talking about? Xing thought.

Thespirit stopped the bus."please help",he said sadly.

Abby nodded."of course wewill"

Xing nodded. "Yeah, we will." He replied. "What's this item you need returned to your wife?"

The sprit looked to them." my poket wtch,with our fmilys picture in it,it was loast here a few years ago .. when they killed me,my body was found,but i want that to be returned to her before i can move on"

Abby nodded."got it"

"And that's why you took over the bus?" Xing asked.

The spirit nodded."the driver is one of the ones who killed me,i have to admit its fun haunting him...but i wnat to rest"

Xing nodded. "I see." He said.

Abby smiled some then looked out the bus."Xing stay here and rest, youve just gotten out of the hospital",she said seriously then smiled."besides if you go back into the hospital you wont get my awsome cooking!"

Xing smiled and nodded. "Right," he said, thinking that retrieving a pocket watch was hardly life-threatening.
