You have your secrets, I have mine.

" Come on, Wven! Live a little! " Gabe shoved me forward and I almost and I almost tripped over the bench but i turned in to the ghost part of me at the last second. I fell in to the ground at the and shot back up again and got up in Gabe's face.

" That's kinda of hard considering I'm dead! " I started to storm off.

" Oh well then whats that make me? Chopped noodles? " He caught up with me and walked beside me in silence for a minute.

" So.... I take it your not jumping in the fountain? " Gabe said breaking the silence.

" No, Gabe, no I'm not. What has got you in such a good mode anyway? You are normally a stuck up grump. "

Gabe straitened up knowing I caught him in a rare good mood. " Well it is a tuesday so you know what that means...... " He continued on walking then evaporated in a great speed.

Ohhhhhh, yes. I did know what the meant. It meant it was the IABAIKI meeting ( I'm a beast and I know it ). I wasn't really a beast. If being dead for 20 years and not going to heaven made you a beast then I was top of the flipping list.

My name is Wven ( pronounced just like ven ) Lopez. I am originally from Los Gatos, California but I moved to New York 13 years ago. If you are wondering how the heck that's possible think back to when I talked about changing in to the ghost part of me before falling in to the bench. Well, that is because there is a ghost part wherte I float and fall through objects but there is also a human part where I walk around touch and feel people kinda twisted if you ask me because when I'm like that I can act like a human again. So like I said I died 20 years ago after getting fired from my job I came back to my mos house, I was only 16 at the time and I didn't want to stay with my dad. I came home and went to sleep and my step dad came home drunk a couple hours later and he hadn't always like me. So in my sleep he pulled outa kitchen knife and stabbed me to death, He was executed a year later by a shot.I have been a major sarcastic downer since then.

" Ok, gotta get back to my place and change before the meeting " I changed it to ghost mode and flew to my Brooklyn apartment.

I flew in just as my mom was getting up from her nap. " Oh hi honey! You better get your sweet buns moving if you wanna make it to your meeting. " My mom had embraced that I was dead and was just happy I was still there.

" Yeah.... ok..... I moving my..... sweet buns?? " I looked at my mother strangely.

" Just experimenting before I die off sweetie " My mom said sadly.

" Please. Your like chocolate you never die off " I said rubbing my moms back.

10 minutes later:

I jumped in Bethany's car and we were on our way to "St. Clementines Cathedral" or that,s what we called the abandoned warehouse we kept are meetings in to keep it low key when we talk about it in public and because we all like oranges.

" Hey Sweetie. How's your afterlife going today?? " Bethany said hugging me around the weird seat belts he had in her death-trap on wheels. Bethany was like the mother of our rag-tag group of messed up missfits. She was a nice angel sent down from heaven. She lived with her husband Xavier who funds the group meetings.

" Funny... Just chillin' like an un-dead homme. Ya know? PEACE!! " I said playing along.

" No your funny " Beth said stiffining a laugh. " You ready for tons of fun?? " Bethany said sarcastically.

" YEAH!!! Bring on the 4 hours of un-dead and distorted grumps " I said sarcastically in return.
