Ooooh boy, am I glad you asked.
Spirits are real all right, and there are many of them, of various kinds. I do not know if they're from an other dimension connected to this one or from an other "layer" from this world we normally can't see. I find them very fascinating and I would love to know more about them. Problem is, these are also beings that I am the most afraid of, more than any other thing on Earth. Save for a couple of good spirits I'm familiar with...
Oh, right. Story. Sorry, I got a little carried away.
Well then. One day, I was playing on my DS in my room. I was sitting down on the floor, holding the DS up. I was just using the stylus to play, and I was doing well so far. There was a moment where I didn't need to do anything for a while, so I put the stylus in my left hand as I struck a pose in my excitement, still looking at my screen whilst I held the console in my right. (Just so you know, I'm right handed, I was just that crazy back then.)
When I brought my left hand back to the DS, the stylus in the hand was just gone. However, my fingers were still in a position like I still held it. Confused, I started to search for the stylus as I needed it for the game I was playing. I looked everywhere for that thing where I it would make sense to look. I searched on the floor, under the bed and even on the bed, as the bed was directly left of the place I was sitting. It was nowhere to be found.
I couldn't play this game without stylus and I had no reserves at the time. Since I didn't want to use my finger as I thought that could damage the touchscreen, I decided to switch games. I always keep all of my DS games in a pouch, as well as the DS itself when I'm not using them. At the time the pouch was lying on one of the shelves that were on my right. However, as soon as I looked at the pouch on the shelves I saw my stylus, the one I was using just minutes earlier, right inside the pouch. You can tell me whatever you want, but there is no logical explanation for how that thing could've possibly gotten there.
It doesn't end there, because later it happened AGAIN. This time around I was playing on my DS on the bed, with the pouch lying flat on the ground next to the bed. I was holding the stylus in my left hand away from the screen again because again I had a moment where I didn't need that thing for a small while, whilst I kept watching the screen. This time around I noticed something was off, since I didn't feel the stylus in my hand anymore all of a sudden. I looked at my left hand and confirmed that the stylus was gone. Again I searched on the bed, under the bed and on the ground to no avail.
This time I had a reserve, so I took it out so I could continue playing normally. I don't remember correctly what happened next, but at some point I looked at my pouch, only to see the stylus I was playing with before taking the reserve inside again. So I took it out and put the reserve back in it's packing. Now you might say it could've rolled in there, but the pouch is quite small (the New 3DS XL would have trouble getting in completely) and the position it was in would not make sense even if it rolled in there. The stylus was nicely tucked inside, under an angle as if I put it there for the time being when I didn't need it for a game. Again, there's no logical explanation how it could've gotten there.
Surprisingly, at that moment I wasn't scared at all, just confused. Even now I'm more scared by Boo from the Mario series than by this story. (Then again, I was scared whenever I met Boos as enemies in the Mario Bros. series for many years.)
Anyways, if you guys want a real ghost story, I'll have another one for a later post.
