"Raise, my minions! Raise!"

You spin around as you hear the eerie voice seeming to come out of nowhere. You see nothing. But the earth beneath your feet (or paws) starts to rumble, like a massive earthquake. You yell in fear and scramble up a tree. There you horrifyingly feel the ground tremble harder until you feel light-headed and dizzy.

"That's it! Rise from your shadowy graves!"

You gasp. You had completely forgotten you were still in the Haunted Woods. This must be a boneyard! You close your eyes in fear. A few minutes later, the ground stops shaking. You fearfully open one eye. Right below your hiding tree were thousands of chanting and moaning ghost pets! You scramble fearfully higher up the tree until you are not seen.

"Gather round, minions! Gather round!" the mysterious voice booms again. You scrunch down and try to pretend you are in Faerieland. Yeah, with the nice faeries begging for quests to be done. Not this misty scary boneyard.

"Now that this meeting has been advertised, it would be best we start. " the voice says. You try to see the mysterious figure. But you see nothing.

"Now we all know that us ghosts are being world-wide fear factors-" the voice was interrupted by loud cheering and celebrating. "HUSH!" the voice booms. All the ghosts listened carefully. "But not all. We have yet to scare Terror Mountain!" the silence broke into hushed whispers.

You are terrified. You have read about these ghosts. To them, horrible smells are savory, and regular good-smells are incredibly smelly. The book describes a neopian smells like 'a pile of dung'. It said the cleaner you are, the worse you smell to them. You gulp. You just took a bath this morning.

"Now my slaves! Talk about yourselves. I have to check our supplies for the maximum amount of scares!" the voice yelled. The whispers turned to loud noise. Then you finally see the mysterious voice. It is a big Gelert, but it is too dark to see the colouring. The Gelert marched stiffly past the tree you are hiding in, then pauses, paw in air, sniffing.

"I. . . Smell. . . NEOPIAN!" The Gelert yelled. The noise turned to gasping.

"I knew it! I knew I smelled something!" a Usul yelled.

"M'lord! I did too! I smelled the Neopian too! I thought it was my nose playing tricks on me!" a Grarrl loudly called to the Gelert.

"Gir06! I-"

"SILENCE!" the Gelert yelled. The noise eerily silenced. You can only hear your rapid heartbeat and your terrified breaths. The Gelert's shadow reflected on the moonlight as you see him sniffing your tree. "Aha!" he yells. "Kolo! Get the Neopian in the tree!"

"Aye aye!" a Korbat saluted. He proudly flies up to you. He stares evily into your eyes with his own red glowing eyes. In your terror, you fall out of the tree, badly injuring your ankle.

"Karia! You are our Zafara of magic! Dispose of this Neopian!" the Gelert called. Those were the last words you heard before entering a swirling vortex of darkness.

When you wake up, the Ghosts and Gelert were gone. You get up and sniff the air. You smell faintly. . . . Cheese! Oh boy! You lick your lips as you scamper torwards the cheesy smell. Being transformed into a Psimouse isn't a total loss after all!
