The devil behind the mask

GAME ON

My mouth gaped wide open. I was shocked and terrified to realise my name was spelt. I could feel everyone eyes burning at me

"Nobody takes their hands off this board we could leave the door to the other side open" whatever Jason said sounded dangerous but I had to, I couldn't stand looking at the damn board that just said I would kill Caitlin. I quickly dragged my fingers off that planchette shuddering in fear

"What did you do?" Jason quickly took his hands off the planchette and placed them on his temple "now you just left the door to the other side open. This is going to have grave consequences" I don't care, I just wanted to get out of here. I took the bottle of tequila and chugged down whatever remained in a fluid motion. Everywhere was quiet, they all stared at me like I was some nutcase

"OK, who moved the piece?" Dave stood up casting a interrogative gaze on everyone

"Don't you understand, Dave we just connected to the other side and now that connection is still open thanks to your ex"

"Veronika are you okay?" Riley asked with the look of concern all over her face. I stood up glaring at everyone face right before I stormed out of the room, I almost hit my shoulder on the door frame I guess the alcohol was starting to kick in.

Damon POV

We just made a connection with the other side? Hah! What a joke someone among us was definitely messing with the board but who would and what is the endgame?

"I'll go with her" I stood up glaring at their suspecting faces and rushed out into the cold night air.

Dave POV

"Serious guys who moved the fucking planchette?" I asked

"Chill bro, it was Madison" Scott placed his hands on my shoulder trying to laugh off what happened like it was nothing, this sick joke messed with Veronika feelings

"Kara why did you ask such a question?" I turned to Kara who drank from a can

"My bad, it just came out" Kara rolled her eyes looking into a dark corner of the room. Could this really be what the other side think or could someone have set this whole show up if so what would they stand to achieve?

Sophie POV

He still cares about her although he denies it when asked, I can feel his love slowly drifting away. I need to do something fast, something to drive him away from Veronika. I'm going to do what it takes I'm not going to loose Dave not to Veronika.

Gabe POV

Just perfect. Someone is out to ruin Veronika's life. I'm pretty sure there is no such thing as the afterlife, the other side or even ghosts who is summoned by playing a stupid board game. I chuckled staring at everyone unsuspecting face as they tried to cover up what just happened with conversation. Someone here was pulling the strings tied to this puppet show, but the two questions at the center of this mystery is who and why Veronika. Now that is a cool Scooby-doo mystery.

Riley POV

Oh my gosh! I wonder how poor Veronika is feeling. But why would a ghost accuse Veronika of killing Caitlin. I just don't understand what's going on. My daze was overrode by Caitlin who without saying a word left. This definitely wasn't how I planned my first party in college to be like.

Damon POV

"Slow down nik nik" I ran towards her. She tripped on her steps she was evidently drunk. I trailed her, watching her from behind

"Why is it so cold tonight" she shouted at the cold night air as she ran her hands up and down her arm. I couldn't help myself I wrapped my jacket round her. She looked at me with surprised eyes, scrutinying me
