Strange things have been happening around town lately,nobody knows the cause though.Like nothing is the cause of this mischief,but something has to be behind it.“Maybe its a phantom” some men joked while drinking coffee on their breaks,making the others laugh “Yeah,what a joke.Its probably just people loosing their marbles,seeing things.” Many were like those men,taking it as a joke,but others were scared by the thought,they didnt want a phantom or ghost haunting them
Vexis sat on the windowsill of an open apartment window,it wasent even his apartment,but the owner wouldnt mind,they couldnt even see him.He looked down at the people on the road,and sidewalk.Eventually he got bored of sitting,and went down into the streets.He looked around.Was there anybody he could mess with..he noticed a robber trying to steal a ladies purse,he gave the robber a wedgie and went on.

That morning Willowbrook woke up late, silently cursing herself as she pulled her wrinkled work shirt over her head. She had managed to get 5 hours of sleep though, which was 3 more than she was use to getting. She flipped on the news, saw something about a robber and turned it off. "Ugh why can't people just get along for once?" She spoke to her empty apartment. She hated crime, that's why she liked the being a seal trainer. Seals never tried to hurt each other... She quickly ate running downstairs and bolting out to the curb she hopped into her car and drove quickly to work singing the Paramore song that has been stuck in her head for months.

The world just wasent meant to be a nice place.Now a days you can count to 5 and 1000 crimes happen.People were mean no matter where you went,and of course,if you were lucky,you might find a good person or two,just not many.Vexis walked through the streets,since it didnt really matter if he got hit by a car,it went through him anyway,just like her car had.(Thats all i could type before having to go to school)

The world could be a better place. She was going to try her damndest to do her part and make it a little better. Maybe she couldn't make it better for everyone, but she could make it better for the 60 something people who watched her seal shows at noon and two thirty. She pulled into the parking lot and stomped on the brake. Rushing out of the car she scampered onto the zoo grounds. Putting on a cheerful face she got ready to make the word a teeny bit better.

He looked at the car as it rushed by,going through him of course.Whats their rush..? he wondered looking in the direction the car a driven.He decided he'd take a small peak and see.After all,nobody,but another ghost right now,could see him,so its not like he'd appear as a stalker.With that settled in mind,he walked down the road her car had drove on.Eventually find a Zoo,with a car that looked like the one he had seen,same liscence plate and all.Vexis walked through the crowd of atleast 60,anonymously,wondering what could possibly be so interesting,expecially at a zoo.

Willy always treated her seals like humans. She called them over and whispers quietly "Okay my little babies, let's go out and give these people a great show" She kisses them on their snouts and leads them into the stage area. She put on her big showman smile. "Welcome everyone Im Free Willy!" She paused to accomodate the mild laughter. "These are my friends. Wave to the crowd guys." I gave them a small hand signal and they flapped their flippers at the crowd. I laughed scanning the crowd for anyone not smiling. I couldn't see any frowns. Mission Accomplished

Vexis watched the seals closely.From where he stood,at the front of the crowd.He heard laughter,laughter of amusement and joy.He looked around,as if wondering if the seals were what made them laugh.He looked back at the seals,he only died a few years ago,did it take that short period of time to loose the remaining humor he once had as a living,breathing,human or something? He was the little unseen by humans oddball of a crowd.Without a smile,without laughter,what reason did he have to do that,thats why he left his old life anyway,he had no reason.

It was time for their big finale, she hung the hoop off of the diving board. She whistled and one by one the seals hopped through the hoop. Finally, as a comedic effect she also hopped through the hoop. Laughing and smiling at everyone, she stood with the seals and bowed. She smiled and said like she did every day "If you have any questions please come see me after the show!" She shuffled the seals back into the enclosure waving and blowing kisses to the crowd.

He contined to watch the show before him.He watched seal,after seal,after seal jumped through the hoop,which got alot of fascination from the crowd.Then watched her hop through the hoop,which was created by tons of amused laughs from the crowd.He didnt quite understand the humor what she was doing was suppossed to show.Seeing her shuffle the seals back in their enclosure,he guessed the show was over,and people began to leave.Except him.

She stood around idley for a few minutes, hoping someone would come up and ask her about her seals. She waited, sighed and tossed the seals some good job fish. She smiled throwing them up in the air. "Good job my babies!" She twirled her hair between her fingers looking around. All of them were staring at her. "I will be back after my lunch hour babies. Be good and don't fight." She said the last half in a mock serious tone. She shut the enclosure behind her and walked out into the food vendor area

Vexis walked over to the exibit once Willow was gone.He looked at the animals,the seals,he wondered if animals could see him despite the fact he was a ghost.He highly doubted it though.He knew humans couldnt see him when he didnt want them to,he figured it worked the same with animals.
He looked out of the corner of his eye as a little girl,and her mother walked over to Willow,he guessed the little girl had convinced her mother to let her ask the trainer atleast one question.Vexis looked back at the seals.

Willow was making her way to the seafood cart when she was sidetracked by a young girl and her suprisingly young mother. She leaned down and said "Now honey ask her what you asked me." The little girl spoke in a quiet voice that melted Willys heart. " How come you know so much about seals?" Willow smiled and thought about saying "Well kiddo because I am a seal" instead her mouth spoke the words "Ive been in love with seals for a long time. I grew up watching them and always loved how smart they were. I knew someday Id do something with those silly animals, and look at me now." She laughed giving the small child a hug. This is what made her job worth doing. As the child walked away with her mother Willow realized she wasn't hungry anymore. She shrugged and walked back to the arena sitting in the front row

He looked back and the mother,and her daughter,he watched the girl ask her question,an average question it was.He looked back at the seals,how did the little girl and Willow find these animals interesting,he just didnt see the interesting part about it,neither in the show,or right now.What a bore.He thought for a moment then revealed that he was there to the seals,unaware of Willows presence,but quickly faded back to a unseeable figure within 1 second.He was slightly curious to how the seals would react.

Willow watched as the seals pressed their faces to the glass. That was strange. She couldn't help but laugh at their distorted features smushed happily against the barrier. She laughed walking back over to the enclosure. Leaning down pressing her face to the glass she said "Now don't I look funny?"

He looked at the seals pressing there faces against the glass.He stepped back a step as tge girl came over.He watched the girl do the same thing the seals were doing.“Very” he whispered accidentally aloud..she heard.He facepalmed.

She turned around smiling curiously. She wasn't able to detect where the voice came from, so she responded like she would If she was talking to a friend "I thought it'd be fun. The seals seemed to enjoy it." She pointed at the grinning seals. She turned and walked over to the enclosure entrance, turning back one last time to scan the empty arena.. Oh well, she mustve been imagining things.

Good point he thought looking back at the seals.They had such a big grin on their face.He watched the girl get and and begin to leave.When she took her last look,while she was still looking,he revealed himself to her,and only her.There stood a boy with brown hair,and dark purple eyes.He looked at her while she was still looking in his direction..ah yes,frighten the girl..

She saw him, he stared at her probably waiting for a reaction. Shed seen stranger things but playing along she jumped slightly and then she spoke quietly "Hello there.."

Vexis looked at her still,saying nothing,only one word crossed his lips.“Hello” he said simply.He hadent planned to frighten her alot,just wanted to see her reaction.It was a good reaction to..

She looked at him studying his features. His eyes were glorious. She then said the only phrase that came to mind "Wanna pet the seals?" She hoped she didn't sound to clichè.
