Chapter 37: Vol. 5 Chapter 19: Search, Part 2.

From Mathias and Erin’s perspective.
Mathias and Erin were walking around, also looking for any clues or even anything related to the ghost, spirit, specter or whatever it was that was causing such things. They had asked people, randomly, if they had seen someone who had an accident or something like that, which didn't help much.
As they walked, they saw two people with black flames on different parts of their bodies, which worried them.
They tried to investigate more about it, but... The people who had that did not want to talk to them. They continued on their way until...
- Hey, Mat.
- Yeah?
- I know it's weird to ask now. But the thing is, why did you come to that conclusion? - Erin asked.
- Huh? Well... I already explained it to you. - Mat replied.
- No, I mean... From the beginning, how did you know about ghosts? You never told me about it, even though I'm your friend. I only found out about it a little while ago... - Erin said, and she emphasized "friend".
- Oh, that. - said Mat. "But your question had nothing to do with it!" - Well... Sorry. Actually, at first I went with Andrew because I didn't think you'd be interested and because I thought you weren't going to be able to see them. But then after Andrew...
- The shadow ghost thing, right?
- Exactly. That's why I realized that involving you in this was going to be dangerous for you. Fortunately something unpleasant didn't happen back then. Besides... I also tried to find out why ghosts and other spirits are afraid of me, about the mark on my hand, which only you know about. - That is true. The mark was not very noticeable and, besides, always wearing shirts with long sleeves covered it. Although... He didn't mention that some ghosts were not afraid of him, and they faced him, but lost. - ...Because of all this I thought I was the one who should protect you.
- ...What?
- Rather, that I was going to be the only person capable of dealing with those things. - Mat said, a little more seriously.
- I see... - Erin replied.
- But... There are a lot of people involved now. - said Mat. - I really don't know what exactly is going on, I needed some help, as I couldn't make much progress on my own.
That was because of the way he was doing it: he didn't interact with people and only investigated the spirits.
- But you understood a little more when I found you, didn't you? - Erin said, smiling.
- A little bit. I was thinking about it, but I understood it a little more, thanks to you. - Mat told her, Erin blushed a little at that. - And another thing, explaining that to the others was a bit complicated... I couldn't find the words to explain it well.
- I understand. - Erin said and, realizing that the conversation was going somewhere else, she continued - Well, let's go on.

- Ok.
They continued on their way.

...
At that moment...
- Hey, Mat. - said Erin. - That's...
- It's a fire!
Near where they were, around the corner, there was a house fire. The house was a two-story house (it had a pool, but that wasn't noticeable from where they were, anyway) and it looked like the fire was somewhat advanced. There were people around. Mat and Erin had heard something that sounded like an explosion, close to where they were, and decided to get closer to where the sound was coming from. They went there.
- At what time are the firemen arriving? - one man complained.
- Oh, dear God! - cried a lady.
Erin approached Mat, frightened.
- Hey, Mat... That's... That's Nicole's house.
- What? Really? - Mat said. He didn't know Nicole very well, though... Well, she was almost always with Andrew, but they didn't talk very often.
- Nobody's left the house yet! - a lady shouted.
- Mr. and Mrs. Thompson are at work... So... It can't be! - shouted a man.
- Mat, Nicole's sisters hardly ever leave the house... Do they...? No...
"The firemen have not arrived yet, and there may be people inside... Shall I go or not?"
- I have to go!
- But Mat, the firemen will be here soon!

- But what if they're late?!? I'm the only one who can help.
- Then I'll help too! - said Erin.
- No... Alright, let's go! - Mat told her, who accepted, since he could also cover her with a PSI barrier, so that the fire wouldn't damage her... or at least reduce the damage.
They both went near the burning house.
- Hey, what are those two doing?
- Somebody stop them!
They went inside, ignoring the people outside.
Inside, flames flooded the place, the flames consumed everything in their path. The cause of the fire was not yet known, but... It seemed that it was a short circuit and that the fire caused the gas ball, which was in the kitchen, to explode.
- Let's see... Let's go upstairs, quick! - said Erin. - There are the rooms of those two.
- Come on, let's go! - Mat replied.
There was a place where the flames flooded everything. They saw a hole in the ceiling, so they both assumed that this place was the kitchen and that the cylinder gas exploded there, but...
- Did it do that much damage? - said Erin
- That doesn't matter. Let's keep going! - Mat said.
Erin nodded her head.
They both reached the stairs, with some difficulty, due to the flames that were already about to break through the barrier... Of Erin, due to the way she was making her way through the house.
On the second floor was a long hallway, with several rooms and an open window at the end. The part above the kitchen was on fire and... That was the room of one of the girls. The door was covered in flames and there was a crying noise, although... Well, not much could be heard.
"Why did the fire advance so fast?" thought Mat.
- Let's go in! - Mat said and, together with Erin, they reached the door. The blazing flames burned them both a little.
Already at the door, Erin tried to open it, but she couldn't. She started to struggle with it. She started to struggle with it and nothing.
- Agh! - Erin, for the burn.
- Let me do it. - Mat kept trying to open the door.
He couldn't.
- But why won't it open?! - Mat shouted.
- Break it down with your powers, quick! - said Erin.
- Right! - and he used his PSI powers to push the door open with a... PSI wall?
The door flew off on impact, crashing into the wall. Inside, flames had consumed almost everything and, in one corner, stood a silhouette. It was a girl covering someone with her body. It was Emily. She was badly burned.
- There they are! - Erin exclaimed.
Mat and Erin quickly approached them, carried them (Mat covered them with his barrier) and left the burning room. Reina was being carried by Erin and Emily by Mat. The youngest was crying.
In the hallway, when they were already going down, Mat turned to look at the flames, which were getting fiercer and fiercer. But something caught his attention, he saw in the window a... A multicolored ball that had many human faces and other mutilated limbs, emitting strange sounds, from beyond the grave. It deformed from time to time. This one went out of the window, through part of the wall as well. Mat felt a kind of pressure when he saw this creature but, in spite of that, he threw a PSI rope at it, which was almost invisible, in order to follow it. This rope went through walls because its materialization was very weak.
"After searching for you alone for so long, only when I search for you in a group do you appear? It's unbelievable, but it doesn't matter, I got you."
They left the burning house, just as the firemen arrived. Outside were Nicole's parents, her and others. Her parents were very scared. Just then Mat and Erin came out carrying the two sisters. Everyone looked at them in surprise.
Mat and Erin left the two with the paramedics. Mat and Erin were praised for their bravery, but the firefighters gave them a good scolding because of their irresponsible actions.
Well... The paramedics rushed the older of the two sisters due to her severe burns. Nicole, who arrived later, was in tears after seeing her sister in that condition.
The younger one had only minor burns on her right arm and leg, so she was not taken to the hospital, she stayed there.
Nicole's mother went to the hospital as well. Only her father, Nicole and her sister were left there. Nicole's father thanked them for what they did, but also reprimanded them... Although... He was still worried.
As he reprimanded them, Nicole tried to reassure her sister. Mat turned to look at them for a moment, and...
"It can't be..."
There was a flame on each of the girl's burned limbs.
"That means... The other one is like that too." Those were Mat's thoughts after witnessing that.
