**lorraine's pov***
My final wave of motion sickness was gone.
" Can we talk about this,please?" Ed asked me in a stressed tone." There is simply nothing to talk about. I am not engaging with the cases whatsoever. I am just using my gift for as long as I can,so can you stop stressing?" I said as I explained this to Ed for the 1000th time." But what about the baby?" He asked sympathetically." Trust me on this, this will be okay as long as I know my boundaries." I say.
I had decided that for as long as I could,I would help people. Ed thought of it as dangerous,but
I know my limits. The next week, we had gotten a case about a family. The family had complained about loud noises at night,as well as the father's behavior changing .
As we were approaching the house, I felt a ominous feeling. My body instantly shivered.
"Hey, take it steady." Ed says sternly and I nod.  We were greeted  by the husband and wife, Allison and Ralph. Their two children standing behind them. I talked to the mother first. She was a small ,fragile woman. 
"Hello, I'm Lorraine. Could you tell me about the background of the situation?" I ask. "Well, it started a month or so ago. We hadn't noticed anything out the ordinary. We had recently lost our youngest, a son. We had a hard time after his death,the greif still hasn't left me. He was about on the line of becoming a toddler and his name was Michael." She says timidly. 
The words hit close to home. I knew exactly how she felt, losing a important member is a horrible loss."I am very sorry for your lost. Do you mind telling me when you noticed things?" I ask." Well, I had the scratch on my right arm,right leg, right ear,and next to my right eye." It was strange that everything was on the right side.
Later...
After talking to the family, me and Ed gathered what we knew. We figured it could possibly relate the the late son. I can feel the tension in the room, which is making me nauseous by the second." Remember our deal... you head out tomorrow morning." Ed reminded me for the thousandth time." I know honey. I wouldn't want to worry you." I say as I plant a quick kiss." You do that anyway you rebel." He says. I laugh and push his face away.
" Thank you for letting me come,Ed." I say not looking at him."It is all good because it's only a day. Good night,love." He says."Night." I simply respond. 
 I left the house around 6:00 before any of the Armand household." Go get some rest, I will call you when I can." Ed says as he Carries my bags to the car." I will hon. Keep an eye on them, they need your help." I say looking directly at him. He nodded. 
I did not like the fact that i couldn't help out anymore than this. But I knew that I had a baby on the way, and I need to stay low. Ed called me around 2 In the afternoon. He told me that the little girl was having a hard time talking since she was only comfortable with telling me." Put her on the phone,Ed." I suggest. The little girl, Callie, was soon on the phone. She was 5, with long light brown hair, and green eyes. Her voice was timid and quiet. 
Phone call at 2pm:
L: hi there, it's Lorraine you can talk to me hon.
C:....(inaudible whisper)
L: what was that hun?
C:*whisper* I want to talk to you...Alone please.
The people in the house knew what she meant so they stepped out.
C: I think...I think my brother is trying to come back...
L: Tommy?
C:no ma'am, Michael...
L: is he telling you anything?
C: he is saying he wants to live...he didn't want to die...he wants to live. He was just a baby...
L: I know he was just a baby. Is that all he is saying?
C: yes ma'am. I think he is upset.
L: honey tell him that-
A deeper voice comes to the phone.Worrying 
Everyone including Lorraine on the other line.
C(???)- listen here, It wasn't my choice to die. But I have the choice to let you die. You and your family. I am starting with you baby all the way to your husband,then you. I know you Lorraine, and I know how to get under your skin.(evil laughs)
A loud thud hits the ground. Ed's voice is in the distance.
C-Mama! Papa!(she runs to her parents)
E- Callie? Go to your dad! Lorraine honey are you okay?
Lorraine was on the line still. She was speechless.
L: I gotta go-
E- Lorraine-
*end of  call back to Lorraine's POV *
I was stunned. There were so many negative emotions on the other line it was overwhelming . Tears of fear streamed down my face. What does this spirit want with me? I spent that whole evening and night thinking a putting it together. 
How does it know me and what does it want? Why does it want to harm Judy and our baby? It did not make it any better that the only comfort I had was gone. All I had was an empty side of the bed and my own thoughts. But hey, I wasn't totally alone, I had this baby. 
I don't care how far I have to go to go to protect my children,but I will. I fell asleep with the Bible in one hand and the other on my stomach. I really hope Ed it's okay.
