Our lives changed with just452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGyijFJOjg
the sound of a gunshot.
One night, one gunshot, one dead body452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46x094wl5f
discovered the next morning.
That was how my best friends and I got tangled452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvz6fAG81P
up in a murder mystery that changed not just our summer plans, but our entire452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxNYPkEs7P
lives.
Here I am right now, sitting in my bedroom and452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWshhBvNYp
looking impatiently at the time waiting the doorbell to ring. Evelyn and I had452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNHdXEuscG
to search the Smith’s mansion for a clue. This is our third search since the452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7hD0UVeZg
murder. The second search left a sour taste in our mouth. Iris, one of our best452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47O6aTuujQ
friends, was almost killed. She is currently in the hospital in a coma.452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVUuk0Y64z
“indefinite” the doctor had said. These words echoed in my head and drove me to452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DqVxoTMKB
get to the bottom of this mystery.
7:45am
The doorbell rang.
Finally.
I picked my stuff, ran out of my room, down the452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMCHP5XMQF
stairs and to the door. I flung it open.
“After a million years! We452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHX7dsFXbf
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 and452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PaMl8YeQV
dramatic but, in my defense, my heart was beating like crazy, and I just wanted452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2jzSlyMFju
to get things over with. I was already overthinking things as it was already.452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTbvPhVBxE
All I could think of was the fact that Iris was almost murdered, and her killer452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUT5paxALWY
is running free. Probably camping out at the Smith`s mansion… or in my house. I452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunL0u99Ibz
don’t know, and I don’t even want to think about anything else but to find the452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Nbr6mGDQi
answer. And the answer, is behind those huge thick doors of the smith`s house.452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYTC4U5t1c
And today, I hope to uncover it.
Those doors…. quite like that of the452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOv4mzxu6a
entrance to hell. All these years, I had never seen the house as such a scarred452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCLr6g1qiPG
monument. But at the beginning of summer break, things changed. LOADS of452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaDBdcBru3
things. And I must deal with these changes.
Evelyn stepped in front of me and dropped452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcyPDd8DLB
the duffel bag on the dusty porch.
“Ready when you are!” she announced452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9NBZEmYR9
as she dropped to her knees and unzipped the bag.
“Ready!” I replied. For some odd452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Aaz2Orn17
reasons, that word was so difficult for me to say. It seemed like the weirdest452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcRoZIDTg5i
thing to admit. Who in their right senses would be born ready to go exploring452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuf5tymPp1O
an abandoned house where a murder was committed, where her best friend was452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7C35rrsaFR
almost killed, and most importantly, where a potential killer is hiding.
“Done!’ Evelyn announced as she452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUx9nFvCIu
straightened up and pushed the door opened just a crack.
“Wait!” I demanded, preventing her452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaT6eL5kdoE
from going in. “We should know that as we are walking into this place, we might452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhE6rwTt4PC
be the next target.”
“Yeah, I know. And we should be very452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFejPWdliR
careful.”
“Very! You have your backup452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0CtBFroDQ
flashlights, right?”
“Never go anywhere without them!”
We laughed nervously. Evelyn then gave me452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsq2XjKgEE
a reassuring nod, then pushed the door open. Taking a huge breath, we walked452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVlVZI2SM0
into our very own doom.
The house greeted us with the usual452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVqmbbpoye
dust. We went around the house. Our circle452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEK3hfox9A
of white light from our torch, followed us on our journey. I clutched my pepper452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNIhd8eT0u
spray tight in my other hand with my heart beating like crazy. Everything seemed452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nqfrSyw5E
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. I452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUb6ZGKN1Y4
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 to452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2USO35wC7A
go into the study. I tried shaking of the strange feeling and walking away, but452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QZuCHuu7I
I felt myself being dragged to the door.452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VZrUWPeyp
NO… Not dragged. I was WALKING! Even452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtAB84WnKLd
though I didn’t want to go, I saw myself walking towards the study.
Fear gripped my whole being. I452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqNKmAKai3
heard Evelyn`s voice ask if I was ok.
“OF COURSE NOT!” I screamed. “I can452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiV953xcNx
hear my own voice in my head telling me to do what I don’t want to.”
Adrenaline flowed through my veins452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPLjyVXPS1
as I listened to myself talking. To my horror, that wasn’t what I screamed. I heard452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATtnYS7SzU
myself scream: “I AM FINE! LET’S JUST GET THIS OVER WITH!”
WHAT? That so not what I wanted to452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4IZH1EB8Rl
say. I stared at Evelyn as she asked me what was wrong with me. She explained452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKfBu4US9e
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. Maybe452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKgUpbYHrL
that’s it. Maybe because I didn’t get enough sleep last night, I am hearing452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQmx9Rt4Uu
things.
“Sorry Eve, I didn’t mean anything I452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHUps6e6h2
said.” I apologized. As we continued our search.
We walked away from the study door452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWFm6IoULf
again. Then I heard it loud and clear this time.
“GET452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvXvcAqe3J
IN THERE!”.
I was so startled that I sprayed my spray into Evelyn’s eyes out of452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxfF9fcYCq
shock. I dropped the pepper spray, quite dazed. I started apologizing but452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOrCSm8dYqX
stopped in shock. I stared at Evelyn in surprise.
Something is wrong. Very wrong.
Evelyn wasn’t in pain. In fact, she didn’t452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5PE9O6aof
look as though she was in pain at all. Instead, she smiled at me, walked452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdR9G8j55aM
towards the study door, and opened it.
“Evelyn, are you ok?” I asked as the452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCnMlbLV2X
fear and shock I felt made my leg quiver.
“Yes, I am! Fiona. She wants us to452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6PIMO9Op7
search the study!” she replied in a hypnotic way and with a horrific smile.
“Who?” I stammered as I looked452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5srV82fYN
around in fear. Everything about this house is just off.
"The452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCt9krSEP0D
girl." Eve replied impatiently. Still with that weird smile on her face. Then she452Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzngm3cutg
added, “The girl that always tells us what to do.”
Then she disappeared into the room.
