New home/New beginning
¨Come on Remus this is a once in a lifetime opportunity. We could change the world¨
¨James, you are mental. There is no way in absolut hell the owners will let us stay in the most haunted mansion on France for three months straight¨
¨They will if…I buy it¨
Remus stopped walking and slowly turned to look at James who was walking a few meters behind him playing with a flashlight
¨James. What do you mean if you buy it?.You can't possibly be so reckl- OH MY GOD. James look at me in the eye right now ̈
James hesitantly glances at Remus
¨What Remus?¨
¨Did. You. already. Buy. the. House?¨ Remus steps closer to James with each word
James gulp and awkwardly laughs
¨Maaaaybe bu-¨
Remus groans and turns around quickly walking back to the car
̈-Remus wait. It was just a very good deal, I could not say no..and if I didn't buy i- ̈
¨It would have been what..destroyed?! DAMN it James. That is exactly what you said about the queen mary, and what did you do?¨
¨I bought it…¨
¨YOU BOUGHT IT. And then you said exactly the same thing about the Winchester house and what did you do?!¨ Remus argued while opening the trunk and throwing his equipment in
James sighed and looked at the ground
¨I bou-¨
Remus slammed the trunk close
¨ YOU. FUCKING. BOUGHT. IT. James, I know. Trust me I bloody know you are loaded but for the love of god stop buying unnecessary shit. Promise me that after we do this video you will sell that house. You will also not buy any property without consulting me first.And you will stop doing reckless shit. For fucks sake, last nights investigation your dumb ass went into the woods alone. You could have died James, fuck mate…you are all I have left¨
James looked at Remus and smiled
¨I promise, and you won't lose me. I mean last night you instantly found me, it's like you got a six sense or something. Come on, let's head back to home base and prepare to leave. I am sure Frank is going to be so excited¨
On the way back Remus didn't say a word he just kept glaring at his phone and James truly didn't want to bother his friend more so he just ignored him and drove
In the compound Frank was in the editing room with Mary and Lily who were kissing in the couch on the corner of the room while Frank seemed stressed as he glared at his computer
¨WE ARE BACK GHOSTCASTERS¨
James yelled earning a groan from everyone
¨Someone shut him up¨ Marlene groaned walking into the room, it seemed she had just woken up
Peter enter the room and excitedly went to james and hugged him ¨James I saw last night's episode man It was bloody bri-¨
¨Dangerous it was fucking dangereous¨ Frank cut in
Remus smiled and pulled a cigarette out lighting it ¨I fucking told him¨
Marlen went and sat next to Remus who was chilling by the dining room
¨I was being safe and oh for bloody sake Lils you have a bedroom there's absolutely no need to be making out in our very public livingroom¨ James throwed his bag at Lily who catched it easily
¨Fuck off James you wouldnt understand since you are a virgin. Also next time you pull a stupid stunt like that you will get benched. This is your last call, after the mission in france your are on strict editing duties for at least six months¨ Lily said fixing herself on Marys lap
¨WHAT FOR SIX MONTHS?! THA- FRANK PLEASE..this is this unreasonable¨
Frank groaned and looked at James in the eyes
¨No James, mate we promised no stupid risks. And that was the most stupid risk you could have taken. In those woods there are thousands of dangerous animals. There are cliffs and wild currents. James you could have died, you didnt even took a radio or a fucking flashligtht¨
James sighed
¨Fine, after this I..I will take the desk duty¨
Frank nodded and crossed his arms over his chest
¨And Alice and her wife will regularly come check on you guys. And daily you need to report your day to her¨
James was flabbergasted
But before he could argue Remus covered his mouth
¨Of course Frank¨
Frank smiled at Remus
¨And Marlene will go with you¨
¨WHAT? No no, I do not want to be on the field, Frank. Damn it James¨
James removed himself from Remus and went over to hug Marlene
¨Come on Marls it will be fun, just three hot single ghost hunters taking over Frances most haunted estate. Showing the world spirits are real¨
¨Ugh fine, but I will sleep somewhere else¨
James and Remus turned to look at Frank for approval who simply nodded

Frances day 1
2:00pm
¨James please tell me you didn't forget the key¨ Marlene paced impatiently
Remus lit his fifth cig in the last hour as he leaned against the car which was parked in front of a huge gorgeous black gate, next to it stood a big stone wall with an engraving that read ´BLACK ESTATE MANSION AND CALVARY´ . James had already bust open all his suitcases and his backpack searching for the keys
¨I swear I had them¨
Marene groaned and turned to walk back towards Remus and the car but as she turned she slammed into someone falling
¨WHAT TH- oh..hello there..you¨ Marlene said turning red as she stared at the beautiful dark skin woman in front of her
She had cornrows with jewelry on them and she seemed very fit
The woman ignored Marlene and turned her head to look at James who got up from the floor as soon as he heard Marlenes voice
¨You must be James, the new owner¨
James fixed his glasses and clumsily stumbled over his suitcase to shake her hand
¨Ye..yeah that is me. You must be Mrs.Meadowes¨
¨Please, that was my mother. Call me Dorcas¨
James smiled and nodded
¨Em right Dorcas well this is Remus and Marlene they are my friends. Guys this is Dorcas she is the groundskeeper. Could you..do you have they keys? Mine seem to have disappear¨ James grumbled
Dorcas nodded and walked over Marlene still ignoring her James followed Dorcas, and Remus walked towards Marlene helping her up
¨Up you go Marls¨
¨Thanks Moons¨
Remus patted her head and walked towards James
Dorcas opened the gate and walked in, the path was made of stones and you could see the Black mansion a few meters away. James was in awe at the sight. Dorcas turned to look at James and scoffed
