- I used the old ingredients to make pastries.I took one up to Alexander.I felt an odd rush as I walked up the stairs,as if somone was following me.Then a woman's voice whispered"You know you love him.And if you're not going to do anything about it,by God I will."My eyes widened with surprise."Who are you?"I screamed."No one but lil old forgotten Nellie Lovett."the voice said.I smiled."My friend,prehaps I can help,if you'll help me."I grinned,like a cheshire cat,breaking the news to somone that everyone there was mad."Prehaps."she said.Then,my body felt cold.I walked up the stairs and gave the pastry to Alexander.I smiled and said"There ya go Mr.Todd.If you don't eat it,I will."I tried to say Alexander but by the time I could control myself again,I was half way down the stairs.I smiled when I realized what was happening.Nellie's ghost was so strong,she could host my body.I wondered what happed to Sweeney Todd's ghost.I wondered if he was still here too."Of course he is!"Nellie said.I smiled"Could you tell me where?"I asked."He's embodied himself in your friend..."She said.I gasped realizing that my friend had the ghost of a murderer in him.I knew where the evil from earlier had come from."The boy's soul won't last but a few days if Mr.Todd gets stronger.Nor will yours love."Nellie said giggling.I gasped.They were trying to take us over for good."Sweet Nevermore"Nellie said,"Won't you ever learn,NEVER to trust an accomplice's ghost?"I gasped as Nellie cackled her death rattle of a laugh.If you could call it a laugh.It sounded cold and pure evil.It sent shivers up and down my spine.I'd always heard that Nellie was sweeter than the purest sugar.I guess the afterlife had changed her.She looked the same since the time I saw her when I was about ten and she was about twenty.She was still too pale,too skinny,and pretty loopy...Except now,she was transparent.Her hair was ALWAYS the same no matter what.I never thought that I'd never even meet a ghost,let alone be inhabited by one.But today both of those happened..And pretty quickly as well.Nellie spoke softly to me"Deary,don't worry now...I'm only here to help you..."As if I believed that....
