Our lives changed with just334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Y8n2mBTTy
the sound of a gunshot.
One night, one gunshot, one dead body334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFnL6gFSF9
discovered the next morning.
That was how my best friends and I got tangled334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxxeRQQsLw
up in a murder mystery that changed not just our summer plans, but our entire334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLPlLLq2hI
lives.
Here I am right now, sitting in my bedroom and334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoz65CM0VHh
looking impatiently at the time waiting the doorbell to ring. Evelyn and I had334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Nlg6NeqwG
to search the Smith’s mansion for a clue. This is our third search since the334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnYxqrCJuc
murder. The second search left a sour taste in our mouth. Iris, one of our best334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLAlBga5ee
friends, was almost killed. She is currently in the hospital in a coma.334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMJLm05NW7
“indefinite” the doctor had said. These words echoed in my head and drove me to334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6lvT2jbCr
get to the bottom of this mystery.
7:45am
The doorbell rang.
Finally.
I picked my stuff, ran out of my room, down the334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpmutxBVFs
stairs and to the door. I flung it open.
“After a million years! We334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZRq87Ryre
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 and334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk112k3eiTV
dramatic but, in my defense, my heart was beating like crazy, and I just wanted334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1cAbeVPEs
to get things over with. I was already overthinking things as it was already.334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzuvzqtwEx
All I could think of was the fact that Iris was almost murdered, and her killer334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfiUvcuJ7H
is running free. Probably camping out at the Smith`s mansion… or in my house. I334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9xxVCdcxn
don’t know, and I don’t even want to think about anything else but to find the334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywgQgJgbEy
answer. And the answer, is behind those huge thick doors of the smith`s house.334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsiAWw8rLU
And today, I hope to uncover it.
Those doors…. quite like that of the334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLN0lAD3pV5
entrance to hell. All these years, I had never seen the house as such a scarred334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNPcu7JC95
monument. But at the beginning of summer break, things changed. LOADS of334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINNTAhUyEx
things. And I must deal with these changes.
Evelyn stepped in front of me and dropped334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWujuQR7xSx
the duffel bag on the dusty porch.
“Ready when you are!” she announced334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBUW4VoBkt
as she dropped to her knees and unzipped the bag.
“Ready!” I replied. For some odd334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRLBAcpdMv
reasons, that word was so difficult for me to say. It seemed like the weirdest334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIB8Vi6NqHB
thing to admit. Who in their right senses would be born ready to go exploring334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJj2Hxv1djv
an abandoned house where a murder was committed, where her best friend was334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0fwZYxWfs
almost killed, and most importantly, where a potential killer is hiding.
“Done!’ Evelyn announced as she334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPP9gJddUfD
straightened up and pushed the door opened just a crack.
“Wait!” I demanded, preventing her334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8FXd0Kv7L
from going in. “We should know that as we are walking into this place, we might334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05y9Np6glf
be the next target.”
“Yeah, I know. And we should be very334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1MwhV7wUf
careful.”
“Very! You have your backup334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52EjkOj12R
flashlights, right?”
“Never go anywhere without them!”
We laughed nervously. Evelyn then gave me334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDweyq8Z8qu
a reassuring nod, then pushed the door open. Taking a huge breath, we walked334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATbO2wPfhp
into our very own doom.
The house greeted us with the usual334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDWUWhS3Gy
dust. We went around the house. Our circle334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxequhyYwN
of white light from our torch, followed us on our journey. I clutched my pepper334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaNsm9KWBJ
spray tight in my other hand with my heart beating like crazy. Everything seemed334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcJlwmgw8G
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. I334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYi0ZAwiFIE
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 to334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVCnUY829N
go into the study. I tried shaking of the strange feeling and walking away, but334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7svlfZMp8
I felt myself being dragged to the door.334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBNbVhtGpp
NO… Not dragged. I was WALKING! Even334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1KjAtCGon8
though I didn’t want to go, I saw myself walking towards the study.
Fear gripped my whole being. I334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50ZexX2YSD
heard Evelyn`s voice ask if I was ok.
“OF COURSE NOT!” I screamed. “I can334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pfGcXHIXf
hear my own voice in my head telling me to do what I don’t want to.”
Adrenaline flowed through my veins334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTo0n0YiE6
as I listened to myself talking. To my horror, that wasn’t what I screamed. I heard334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlQL65nUS1
myself scream: “I AM FINE! LET’S JUST GET THIS OVER WITH!”
WHAT? That so not what I wanted to334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRE80YZc2cR
say. I stared at Evelyn as she asked me what was wrong with me. She explained334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHq9HZfAbk
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. Maybe334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4gI5160liV
that’s it. Maybe because I didn’t get enough sleep last night, I am hearing334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVabFaCRJX
things.
“Sorry Eve, I didn’t mean anything I334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86udJipFJ9
said.” I apologized. As we continued our search.
We walked away from the study door334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswyja0elcP
again. Then I heard it loud and clear this time.
“GET334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzapGfokYzm
IN THERE!”.
I was so startled that I sprayed my spray into Evelyn’s eyes out of334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOXrD0g4Jo
shock. I dropped the pepper spray, quite dazed. I started apologizing but334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVRMyAcJYK
stopped in shock. I stared at Evelyn in surprise.
Something is wrong. Very wrong.
Evelyn wasn’t in pain. In fact, she didn’t334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8SSmltTUR
look as though she was in pain at all. Instead, she smiled at me, walked334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTx6U4afkD
towards the study door, and opened it.
“Evelyn, are you ok?” I asked as the334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZnTh8Oiw1T
fear and shock I felt made my leg quiver.
“Yes, I am! Fiona. She wants us to334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyG62bsgHlO
search the study!” she replied in a hypnotic way and with a horrific smile.
“Who?” I stammered as I looked334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJNXK6fxE2
around in fear. Everything about this house is just off.
"The334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkTVisGn36
girl." Eve replied impatiently. Still with that weird smile on her face. Then she334Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOp75zxgWSr
added, “The girl that always tells us what to do.”
Then she disappeared into the room.
