Potions of the Witches in Orion

4. The Belmont Mansion

Lux Randal

         "This is the night that none of us would soon forget. The cool breeze blew though the trees, as clouds past the bright full moon. A wolf howls in the distant, as our footsteps echo in the endless night that is The Belmont Night Fright!" Marcy laughed maniacally.

         "Knock it off, your freaking Emily out.” Emily was shaking, clutching her backpack with all her strength. Marcy thought it’d be fun to document our nights stay. She was going to have me cut out all the boring parts, and edit it further.

         When we arrived at the mansion, Kyle and Roderick were standing there with their bikes. "Well, well, you decided to show."

         We approached them. Kyle dropped his bike and kissed Emily. Marcy dashed a couple feet away and puked. I puked a little in my mouth as well.

         Emily looked at her, "Are you okay?" Marcy gave her two thumbs up from her crouched position.

          We saw three girls walking up to us. "Who are you people?" There were two blonds and a brunette.

         Marcy gave them a sinister look, "The question is, who are you?"

         The one in the middle rolled her eyes, "I'm Miriam, and this is Kim and Chelsea. Now, who are you?"

         Marcy stepped in front of everyone, "We'll be your worst nightmare if you don't get lost.”

         Miriam rolled her eyes; she was taller than Marcy and bigger. "And what if we don't?"

         Marcy set all of her things down, "We don't need any stuck up idiots ruining our night." Marcy grabbed Miriam's arm and flipped her.

         She got into a position to break it, we could tell the girl was in pain because she started crying, "Let go! Let go!" Marcy let her go and as they were running, she kicked her.

         Everyone was staring at Marcy with their mouths wide open. "Well, let’s get going." We trotted to the door. It was boarded up. We began looking for a way in, and found one on the side of the house. We crawled through, and saw pitch black. Marcy passed out flash lights. The mansion had left over furniture that was deteriorating. We began exploring, and looking for a place to set up camp. We wandered into a bedroom, all the furniture was there. Marcy tried the lights but it was no good. We set up our tent and set out our sleeping bags.

         I zipped us in, "This is so scary!" Marcy started laughing.

         Emily hugged her knees to her chest. "Guy's I really want to go home."

         "Oh well, we're not going anywhere!" I began laughing.

         Marcy started recording again. "Here we are in the Belmont Mansion."

         She gave each of us a camera scene. After 45 minutes of talking to the camera, we played some games, and ate what we called dinner. We all decided it was time for bed.

         I was woke up by a large slam.

          Marcy and Emily were up too. "What was that?" Marcy and I shrugged.

         I looked at my watch, 10:27pm. "Let's go check it out!" We packed everything up, and Marcy put her backpack on backwards so the camera could record everything. With our flash lights in hand, we began our journey.

         "I hear voices, at least two of them." We stopped and I put my hand on the wall.

         "Yeah, I feel them walking around. We made it to a ballroom, or large dining room. In a quick second, Emily's phone started ringing loudly. In the distance we saw shadows running towards us, the nearest door was boarded up. We were all screaming, I took out my electric drill and unscrewed as fast as I could. "Hurry up! Hurry up!" Emily was screaming at the top of her lungs.
