A ghost within my he Troublesome

The next day came, and it was time for Alissa to prepare for the next victim that shell be possessing. The next victim was a woman that didn live too far from Mark. A woman who would usually greet Mark in the morning whenever he passes by, and who would even help him with his jog occasionally.

The womans name is Artemis, and coincidentally, her name suits her perfectly. Artemis is the greatest hunter in the town, she has quite the athletic body, and is a very good sport.

Of course, none of those talents and achievements mattered to Alissa. She didn need such traits in a body for her to succeed in her plans, and instead, she needed to be very incompetent instead. Reason why, is because it would be easier for her to continue possessing an incompetent body, rather than one that had developed a strong will as a result of having a competent body.

Someone like Artemis is the kind of target that Alissa didn have hopes in possessing for a long period of time. She was simply too competent, and if it wasn for her friendliness with Mark, Alissa might have ignored the idea of possessing her already.

Unfortunately, Alissa couldn do such thing as ignoring. There were no other ladies that were as close with Mark as Elena and Artemis, which means that Alissa would have to start from the beginning. She would have to introduce herself, and whats problematic, is that she would have to be careful of the eyes of the towns people. It would be strange for someone that didn show any interest in Mark before to suddenly show interest, especially when its more than two or three people who have the same kind of interest. Family or friends of theirs would obviously notice this strangeness, and as a result, theres the chance that they might wonder if they

e possessed.

Thats where things get troublesome… Thats why, for now, Alissa doesn want to possess the people that don know Mark in the same way as Elena and Artemis do. Of course, that is all for now. Alissa was planning to possess them all obviously, however, the reason why she was planning to do it after Artemis, was so she could proceed with it gradually. While having Artemis as a target, she would slowly let others take their first steps towards Mark. Once her next target becomes a bit familiar with Mark, shed proceed with another target.

Alissa was planning to proceed with baby steps, which she had decided on just for the sake of not getting caught. It was a long term plan for sure. The kind of plan that requires a lot of patience, and a plan that will certainly bring Alissa to insanity upon failure.

Nonetheless, even if she is fated for failure, she has no other choice. She could think of no other way. The only way was her current plan, because other than such a plan of hers, she is only destined for failure.

Life as a ghost is basically a curse for her. The only thing that gives her a meaning in life is her lover, which was taken away from her. Now she only has one way of getting him back, and upon failure, she is doomed to live alone and with no purpose for eternity. She can not possess a person forever, and wandering ghosts like her seems to be a very rare existence. What purpose would there be in her life, if she could only live her life with no purpose?
