"Well I kind of had this all planned." I say reaching into my back pocket pulling out a map."This has been planned since I was ten years old. My da..my daddy he wanted to see the world, wanted to take me with. He..he could never sit still. So one day he sat me down and said when I turned 18 he take me to see the world, that it be his gift to me, 'cos I was his."

"They said he and mum weren't going to be able to have kids, they lost three." I say softly,"Then I came along." I smile weakly,"I was their little miracle."

My mind goes back to when I first lost them, when I had talked to Aunt Gily about it.
I want them back! Bring them back!
MJ, there is nothing I can do.
Yes you can! I know you can! I...I read it in the book...you can..I know..the spell. I remember reading it when Grandpa Jack died! Bring them back!
I can't baby girl!They..they would come back as something dark and unatural.
I don't care what they come back as, as long as they come back! Please Aunt Gilly , I have never asked you for anything please. Please.
"Have you ever wondered if you could bring the dead back?" I ask quietly.
