Memories are the ghosts in our minds.

 

They haunt our thoughts when we’re alone, in a darkened room, and trying our best not to acknowledge their presences. 

 

It’s when we stop to think, that the ghosts rise to the surface of our consciousness.

 

I see it in them all. 

 

Sanzo not wanting a cigarette, Gojyo not desiring to go out, Goku when he loses his appetite and myself when I decide not to drive anymore.

 

Distractions can only hold the specters at bay for so long.

 

Soon we’ll all face our darkest demons.

 

But, at least we’ll do it together.

The Sanzo-ikkou and Kou-tachi proved that they were highly addicted last week with 10 points each, while the Homura-tachi are left wondering what they are missing with no points at all.

 

This week’s prompt is #2 – Ghosts

 

Ghosts can haunt people, places, things, and sometimes your very mind!

 

Goyjo playing a few pranks, Hakkai telling ghost stories, Sanzo being haunted by his master, or Goku’s mind playing tricks on him – conjure up a ghostly presence in just 100 words!
