When I was about 14 years old, I spent the night at a friends house. Her name was Natalie and she had an older brother named Darron. Natalie was special because she could sense things, but she wasn"t phsycic.

We were bored and decided to play a game with an ordinary stack of playing cards. The game: You lay the 4 aces down face up in a row and simply ask a question a flip over a card from the stack to see your answer - hearts = yes, diamond = maybe, spade = no, clubs = don"t know.

We were just playing around at first but then things got wierd. We asked if we were taking to a man and it said yes. Then we asked if we were talking to a woman and it said yes again. So we asked if we were talking to both a man and a woman and it was yes.

After asking many questions, were knew we were talking to both sexes and that they were both upset with each other. After a while, the cards would only answer my friend Natalie for when I asked a question, it always came up as a club (don"t know). Natalie asked if they were mad at me and they said yes. She asked if they were there to protect and they said no. She asked if they were there to scare or hurt someone and they said yes (I say "they" because one would answer and then the other would, it was spurratic, but we could tell by the questions they answered after a while who was answering)

After a while of all this, Natalie went to ask a question and she stopped in mid sentence. She looked up at me and screamed and ran out of her room and into the kitchen where her brother was. Of course I followed screaming beacause she was. She said she saw something floating between us. She asked if I saw it and I said no because I was looking down at the cards. Darron wouldn"t believe us so oafter a while went went back into the bedroom to play some more of the cards.

Natalie"s bedroom door was shut and locked. In the midst of asking a question the door knob started turning back and forth as if someone was trying to open it. Natalie asked the cards if it was the man or the woman trying to show us that they were there and it said "NO". She asked if it was another spirit and it said "NO". She asked if it was someone in the house trying to scare us and it said "YES". She asked if it was her brother and it said "YES". Then we heard "SHIT, let me in!

Darron started believing! Natalie started asking it questions again about why it was upset with me and they basically said (by answering yes & no questions) that they both hated me for not entirely believing and lots of other stuff like they wanted to hurt me to make me believe and stuff like that.

Well, at this point I was upset that Natalie would do this. I thought she was just trying to be maean to me and the cards just happened to be answering the questions the right way. So, being mad, I went outside into the front yard to basically pout because my best friend and her brother were making fun of me.

When I was standing in the front yard (I first have to say that it was around midnight and Natalie"s dog would often dig itself out of the backyard) Natalie"s dog darted from standing right next to me where I was petting him to the middle of the front yard and started barking and jumping in circles, biting at the air.

This scared the shit out of me (although their dog was wierd, I don"t think he was THAT wierd) and I ran bak inside.

Natalie told me that while I was outside, she could only talk to the man. She asked if the woman was watching over me and he said "YES". She asked if she was trying to protect me from something and he said "NO". She asked if she was trying to harm me and he said "MAYBE", and after that the only answers she could get were "DONT KNOW".

Well, that was enough, I called my mom and told her to come and get me, even though it ws almost 12:30, she came and got me.

I usually didn"t wear a cross necklace, but I had one. That night I wore that sucker around my neck and held on tight. Also, I told my dog to protect me while I slept and I guess he did because nothing ever happened, that night anyway.
