Slightly Belated Ghost Story

Ghostly Drabble

( Jan. 16th, 2015 08:05 pm)
Tiny original drabble for a prompt on [livejournal.com profile] comment_fic: 'any supernatural character, take me home'.

The Wanderer

The skeleton nestled inside the suitcase: the long bones laid first, the ribcage above them, the skull tucked carefully on top. Folded, like a suit. Someone had packed it very neatly. The address on the label was a town half a continent away.

Anna stared at it, her terror blanketed by a sudden, horrified comprehension. She drew a ragged breath, and turned to look at the pale figure behind her in a new and terrible light.

"Take me home," he asked hopelessly, holding out a hand in bleak entreaty. "Please. Take me home?"

And in strange, distant determination, she agreed.
