Our lives changed with just342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm68scxURyI
the sound of a gunshot.
One night, one gunshot, one dead body342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Z72XzBPom
discovered the next morning.
That was how my best friends and I got tangled342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyB7dJkYH1c
up in a murder mystery that changed not just our summer plans, but our entire342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyDqO4Qt16
lives.
Here I am right now, sitting in my bedroom and342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqhzPcQfFF
looking impatiently at the time waiting the doorbell to ring. Evelyn and I had342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDX04W70IK
to search the Smith’s mansion for a clue. This is our third search since the342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRp2TtAPwf4
murder. The second search left a sour taste in our mouth. Iris, one of our best342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6SPXGKIGS
friends, was almost killed. She is currently in the hospital in a coma.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtx6GOCxuW
“indefinite” the doctor had said. These words echoed in my head and drove me to342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18aukX181Y
get to the bottom of this mystery.
7:45am
The doorbell rang.
Finally.
I picked my stuff, ran out of my room, down the342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcsrt6B4OQ
stairs and to the door. I flung it open.
“After a million years! We342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rj6nhpxKk
have no time. Let’s leave now!” I stated as I pulled my tote bag along with me.
I know I was being quite bossy and342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2DOMFr2Ry
dramatic but, in my defense, my heart was beating like crazy, and I just wanted342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhfxU1Ewe6
to get things over with. I was already overthinking things as it was already.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIL05iZFvkM
All I could think of was the fact that Iris was almost murdered, and her killer342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5OMpThxF6
is running free. Probably camping out at the Smith`s mansion… or in my house. I342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouWsyP7tMn
don’t know, and I don’t even want to think about anything else but to find the342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0HbykC0Ns
answer. And the answer, is behind those huge thick doors of the smith`s house.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCS3alufTs1
And today, I hope to uncover it.
Those doors…. quite like that of the342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjK9rJVnFv
entrance to hell. All these years, I had never seen the house as such a scarred342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsfDlzwrGu
monument. But at the beginning of summer break, things changed. LOADS of342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFpDUGtcyH
things. And I must deal with these changes.
Evelyn stepped in front of me and dropped342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdsdUuKJwl
the duffel bag on the dusty porch.
“Ready when you are!” she announced342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PaexjRlAD
as she dropped to her knees and unzipped the bag.
“Ready!” I replied. For some odd342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNs0WOsFI7l
reasons, that word was so difficult for me to say. It seemed like the weirdest342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuy0J6PBDkP
thing to admit. Who in their right senses would be born ready to go exploring342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveldKUW2d2
an abandoned house where a murder was committed, where her best friend was342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrBODJVbGk
almost killed, and most importantly, where a potential killer is hiding.
“Done!’ Evelyn announced as she342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0ctfeKuwB
straightened up and pushed the door opened just a crack.
“Wait!” I demanded, preventing her342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoCza4kcvy
from going in. “We should know that as we are walking into this place, we might342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmi1Ru1HRMq
be the next target.”
“Yeah, I know. And we should be very342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSFi596Ndg
careful.”
“Very! You have your backup342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9EAJwctl78
flashlights, right?”
“Never go anywhere without them!”
We laughed nervously. Evelyn then gave me342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMFfrd8hqJ
a reassuring nod, then pushed the door open. Taking a huge breath, we walked342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKel6X3NUn
into our very own doom.
The house greeted us with the usual342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mgmGdtj2G
dust. We went around the house. Our circle342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnS7fBCql1
of white light from our torch, followed us on our journey. I clutched my pepper342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyLw7XnNKJ
spray tight in my other hand with my heart beating like crazy. Everything seemed342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSy3tmKohBN
to be going well, till we got to the study.
When we approached the study, I already decided not to go in. Because that was where Iris was almost murdered. I342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNKbvvrhh1
began walking away from the room. Then the strangest thing happened.
I heard a voice.
MY voice, but in my head. The voice willed me to342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOeIFJLcgz
go into the study. I tried shaking of the strange feeling and walking away, but342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzcQle51mk
I felt myself being dragged to the door.342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIMyyySygu
NO… Not dragged. I was WALKING! Even342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhn8AQcPxkj
though I didn’t want to go, I saw myself walking towards the study.
Fear gripped my whole being. I342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47GkrLLqHS
heard Evelyn`s voice ask if I was ok.
“OF COURSE NOT!” I screamed. “I can342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MrqjLwkit
hear my own voice in my head telling me to do what I don’t want to.”
Adrenaline flowed through my veins342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOx0SwDa7xq
as I listened to myself talking. To my horror, that wasn’t what I screamed. I heard342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWziGDFq1A
myself scream: “I AM FINE! LET’S JUST GET THIS OVER WITH!”
WHAT? That so not what I wanted to342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxFHgS4rpu
say. I stared at Evelyn as she asked me what was wrong with me. She explained342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04s6Pyixqg
that she understands how I feel but I need to be calm.
“Did you sleep at all last night?”
I didn’t even give her a reply. Maybe342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0xDon9Ufi
that’s it. Maybe because I didn’t get enough sleep last night, I am hearing342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpGQHz90Pz
things.
“Sorry Eve, I didn’t mean anything I342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbmXMQ5955
said.” I apologized. As we continued our search.
We walked away from the study door342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgMduhlznP
again. Then I heard it loud and clear this time.
“GET342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpXxqRugLd
IN THERE!”.
I was so startled that I sprayed my spray into Evelyn’s eyes out of342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAjekwkkqD
shock. I dropped the pepper spray, quite dazed. I started apologizing but342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWoykGNL5ul
stopped in shock. I stared at Evelyn in surprise.
Something is wrong. Very wrong.
Evelyn wasn’t in pain. In fact, she didn’t342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMCFnO7KmU
look as though she was in pain at all. Instead, she smiled at me, walked342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xs64XWCMK
towards the study door, and opened it.
“Evelyn, are you ok?” I asked as the342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvP5zZItFpx
fear and shock I felt made my leg quiver.
“Yes, I am! Fiona. She wants us to342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvOjGQ7P9T
search the study!” she replied in a hypnotic way and with a horrific smile.
“Who?” I stammered as I looked342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3LwvhCO16
around in fear. Everything about this house is just off.
"The342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡij4i6ZXF5H
girl." Eve replied impatiently. Still with that weird smile on her face. Then she342Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2QkCDOaXt
added, “The girl that always tells us what to do.”
Then she disappeared into the room.
