"Hey, Man, wake up." Snapping me out of my daze, he pulled me out of the middle of the street. The passing car honked, as it drove away. Still confused about what happened, I blinked a few times as my best friend stared at me. "Huh? what just happened?" Even if i did not know what had went down while i was in my daze, i knew that my best friend Ryan had probably saved my hide. He was always saving me from causing myself to get hurt involuntarily, i honestly didn't know what i would do without him.582Please respect copyright.PENANABaOwLYJI7Y

"Man, everyday we pass by this hill it's like your transported somewhere else." The breeze in the wind was the only sound in this scene, i didn't know what to say. All i could do was smile at that, because that was my way of saying sorry to him. "Yeah, sorry." Rubbing the back of my head, i gave the brightest and most silliest smile. 582Please respect copyright.PENANAa8cTzeOac5

Help me.
A sudden voice echoed in my head, a unfamiliar one. At first i thought it wasn't in my head, and i looked around to see who was speaking. "What are you looking for?" Ryan asked me confused. "Huh? You didn't hear that?" Surprised, i looked at Ryan as he glared at me with a worried look. "Whatever you heard, i didn't." That meant it was in my head, and i was hearing a random voice. Maybe it was just in my mind, and it was just a fascination. 582Please respect copyright.PENANA80Xsbj4EnE

"There it goes again, that voice." Glancing around frantically, i tried to find the source of it. "What voice?" I hadn't realized i said that out loud, as i looked toward that dreaded house on the hill. "You know, you seem to lose your mind whenever you are near this house." Turning my attention to Ryan, he was looking toward where i was glancing. "Like, whenever we pass by this hill on our way home. You always freeze on the spot, and now you're hearing a voice." 582Please respect copyright.PENANAb6XjXaJDVv
"Yeah...your right..." He must think i'm crazy, but who could blame him. I was the only one hearing voices, and shutting down near this house. "So, what did the voice say?"
"It said: 'Help me' Twice." I glanced back at the house, and i just felt like i was being drawn to it. "Was it a familiar voice? Like your old man?"582Please respect copyright.PENANAB0kLLpkjrI

That's right, my dad had possibly died there; but it wasn't his voice. "No, it was a female's." We were both silent, staring at the top of the hill at the house in our sights. "Do you really think your dad killed the people there? Or that there was even anything suspicious about them?" Looking at Ryan, he turned his head toward me. "I honestly don't know, but that light had to come from something six years ago. What other than the family of ill rumors?" 582Please respect copyright.PENANAW5OungDm8B
"Well, you said the voice was a female? And wasn't there that young girl who lived there?" I nodded, but this voice sounded to old to be that of a possibly ten year old girl. "Well, no use in staring any longer. Let's go check it out." Before i had a chance to comprehend or respond to what Ryan had said, he was already running up the hill.582Please respect copyright.PENANAGuIOn5MjBL

Dashing after him, i called his name. "Ryan, wait up! You know we aren't supposed to go up there! This house is strictly taboo." As we got further and further up the hill, Ryan didn't say a single thing back. It was like i was talking to myself, he was completely ignoring my pleas to stop.
When we arrived at the top of the hill, i caught my breath. "Ryan...do you ever listen to anything i say...?" My voice trailed off as i looked to what he was staring at. We were both speechless, as we were standing in front of the cursed home. The once residence of the black-wood family, we were both caught in awe.582Please respect copyright.PENANAP714noMjuH
"Man, it's even more creepy up close and personal." He spoke as he continued to stare at the house.582Please respect copyright.PENANAHkPyeQj3vQ

"Yeah? Well, it's where the voice is coming from." I walked up to the front door, reaching for the knob. "Aiden, i don't think we should be going in." Rolling my eyes, i glanced back at him. "Your the one who ran up here when i tried to stop you; insisting that we should find out where the voice was coming from."582Please respect copyright.PENANAJhAMcJOl4D

Just then, his phone buzzed a few times. He took it out his pocket, backing up slowly. "Man, my mom is getting worried. I got to go, Aiden."582Please respect copyright.PENANAAR8VkMxMjX
"Your not seriously making up an excuse to get out of coming in, are you?" He shook his head back in forth, showing me the phone. "See? My mom is telling me to come home now." Sighing, i put my head down rubbing my neck. "Alright," I lifted my head opening the door completely. "You go, i'm going to go inside the house."
He nodded, as he fist bumped me before heading down the hill. Well, here it goes; I may be looking at where my father died. 582Please respect copyright.PENANAQaZxSw2coN

Walking up the main stairs, they looked like the stairs of a castle. They were elegant, yet classic at the same time. When i arrived at the top, there were stairs on the left and right; i didn't know where to go. Help me. Left, i had to go left. When i arrived at the top of the next pair of stairs, i looked each way. This home was like a dark maze, i see old torches on the wall. This family seriously must have been creepy, this house is like a maze. Help me.All this voice ever said was help me, and nothing else. I headed toward the doorway, into the long corridor and twist and turns. The first thing i saw, was at the end of one of the hallways was a portrait. I saw a young boy, he had yellow eyes; this must have been one of the kids who lived here.582Please respect copyright.PENANAsS4ibbhDM0
582Please respect copyright.PENANAIgx9YSOKXQ
Help me. Help my family. Even though the voice was a female, i felt like she was saying ; "Help my brother, touch the painting".582Please respect copyright.PENANAbqLqr0eR01
Doing exactly that, a purple light escape it; similar to the light of that night. Something shaped on my hand, and i removed it as my hand began to burn. Help me. The girls voice spoke again, as i fell back. My hand was smoking, as a mark appeared on it. But it wasn't a normal mark, like a burn or a bruise. It was like a symbol, a curse.582Please respect copyright.PENANArvyBjoWCx3
Sitting up, the light turned from purple to yellow, as i stared at it speechless. Then, what happened next, made me look away as it blinded my eyes.582Please respect copyright.PENANAF5vA2PMaZQ
When all the light faded, i looked forward. I saw, a black haired boy, about my age, standing there.582Please respect copyright.PENANAO2QxRnEQTB
He had yellow eyes, bright yellow; unnatural eyes, no human should have.Help me...Brother.The boy's eyes widened immediately, as if he heard the voice. "You..." He glanced down at me, his eyes uninviting. 582Please respect copyright.PENANAoIN9QxIXLZ
