[ WP ] You 're a sight seeing ghost who has been enjoying your eternal existence up until now . You decided to visit Area 51 and things were fine ... until you were caught .

Eternity, quite honestly, is n't as bad as everyone makes it out to be. Being incorporeal has its pros, after all. I can walk through fire, bullets and anything anyone can throw at me and I know for certain I can never die as a consequence of being too reckless. 
 
 On account of this, I spend most of my unlife sight-seeing where I could n't go in my mortal life. I once went to the depths of the North Atlantic, for instance, to discover Atlantis. In the end all I discovered were some glowy fish and what was possibly the remains of the Titanic. 
 
 I think I overstepped this time, however. As a person, I'd always been curious over the tempting mystery of Area 51. Perhaps it was the clandestine nature of how it operates and wether it exists that drew me to it, or maybe it was the secrets it supposedly contains. For real, I always wondered if Aliens existed. 
 
 So, naturally, I decided to explore this enigmatic base of operations, being the curious ghost I am. The Nevada Air Force facility where it is said to lie was a cinch to break into on account of me floating through all the defences. As I hovered in the interior of the base, chuckling to myself at me being in what was supposedly America's most well kept secret, a floodlight shone upon me. Alarms and sirens began to blare, people yelling over tannoy systems,'Code White, Code White! Supernatural entity is on the premises!' 
 
 I panicked and began to float back through the wall I came from, only to find I could n't phase through it. The wall which'd formerly been made of stone now crackled with an odd blue lightning which, as I approached it, instantly repelled me as two magnets of the same pole would. An invisible force pushed me back into the base as I began to hear the thud of boots on the ground all around me. Without thinking twice I dashed into the nearest compound and tucked myself into a corner. If I had a heart it'd have been pounding through my chest at that point. 
 
 A small moan sounded as I peeled my eyes to make out shapes amongst the dark room. A light flashed on to reveal my surroundings, and I fell backwards as I looked around to see the forms of other creatures inhabiting translucent, water-filled containers around the room, each of varyingly ludicrous appearances: some clearly amphibious, others strangely predator-esque and carnivorous in nature. The latter exuded brutality. They were all clearly animalistic, simply snapping and snarling at me, but each was unlike anything I've ever seen before on the Earth or in my travels. Collectively, their colours could've filled a rainbow. My eyes flashed from creature to creature and I saw tentacles, bulbous eyes, many-teethed mouths and even insectoid wings amidst the crowd of seemingly mutated lifeforms. 
 
 One such creature, with many eyes lining a skeletal face, regarded me with slight intrigue. A black tongue slithered out of its maw to reveal yet another eye which lightly nudged against the container it was in. `` *Ruuuuuuhhhhhn*,'' it croaked to me in a garbled, contorted voice more akin to a robot than the beast it looked like. 
 
 I only realised what it meant too late as a net fell over me and snared me within it, crackling with the same blue electricity of the fence as, for the first time in forty years, pain began to wrack my body. And then I was out like a light. 
 
 And that's how I ended up here, in a white room, across the table from a man in a suit more precise and elegant than a ballet dancer. His face matched this; pointed and linear, with hard, sharp eyes. I looked down to find my hands cuffed to the table, and I had to suppress a snigger at the fact they'd naively thought they could chain a ghost down. 
 
 `` So, do you know why you're here?'' He said, straight to business. All professional like. 
 
 `` Hold up, first you answer my questions. Or I'll just slip out of these manacles you have here.'' 
 
 He cleared his throat and presented some papers from the ground beside him. `` I'm afraid that wo n't be happening; I think you'll find we're well versed in dealing with your kind.'' He reached into his breast pocket, and produced a small pen which he slid over to me. 
 
 He was right, it appeared I could n't slip out of the manacles. Drat. I chewed my ethereal lip and let out a sigh. `` A'right, what do you want Sharp?'' 
 
 `` Sharp?'' 
 
 `` I dunno, your nose is pointy.'' 
 
 He frowned at that, betraying some emotion in his stoic expression. `` Irregardless of that jab, I think you'll find the offer we're presenting you with is rather favourable. You see, we at area 51 or always in the market for people with your capabilities. So long as they keep their mouths shut.'' 
 
 `` Ca n't say I'm too good at that.'' 
 
 `` We can always stitch it.'' 
 
 I gulped, and flicked my hands dismissively. `` I was playing, Pointer. Ok, hit me up. What's the deal? I got ta steal some documents or something? Become James Bond... or, rather, James Incorporeal Bond? I'll have my drink invisible, not tangible?'' 
 
 He frowned, clearly not amused by my casual quipping. This guy seemed like a tough nut to crack. `` More like you'll be playing the role of a minor nuisance. A useful nuisance, though. See, we always need a breadcrumb trail to keep the public from discovering what we do here. That's where things like you come in; you slip yourself into a few videotapes, maybe haunt a household or two. Get people's attention off of us. Have them look internally for ghosts and the supernatural rather than externally. You catch my drift?'' 
 
 I smirked, and leant against the table. I narrowed my eyes as I scrutinized him intensely. `` So what's in it for me?'' 
 
 `` Not being in captivity like the other creatures you saw here. And, perhaps if you're good, free roam of the area.'' 
 
 `` You, Square-face, have got yourself a deal. Just call me Casper.'' 
 
 `` I beg your pardon?'' 
 
 `` Childhood reference. Something told me you would n't get it.''
