The hearing....2

In the blink of an eye, some unexpected guests joined the hearing, ghosts! There were eight of them by Phoebe's count and they were very noisy, excited it seemed.

"A hearing, how wonderful, we have not had one of these in five years Charlotte."

"The last one ended in a brawl I believe."

"Is that general Drusus?"

"It's him alright, and he came with popcorn. My good man, I do believe that he is breaking the rules that govern this scared court. I shall tell president Rex about this."

Phoebe put her head in her hands and sighed as that ghost persistently called Rex's name even though the human did not respond.

One of the ghosts, a woman dressed like she was alive in the 1600's appeared before Phoebe.

"You are going to lose; everybody loses these hearings, and you have the face of a loser."

"Oh great, you are not just dead, but you can predict the future as well." Phoebe mumbled.
