The Mansion

Confusion

At breakfast Natalie didn't show up. We looked around at each other confused.

"Did Natalie sleep in?" I asked. I looked to my friends, they shrugged and looked to each other, Caleb scooted his chair out and stood up.

"I'm going to my room." He walked out of the dinning room.

We all looked to each other confused,
"Well does anyone know how to cook?" I smiled nervously, "because I sure don't..."

Danielle stood up, "I-I do, I'm not that good, but I can try to make a meal for you guys." She smiled and headed back into the kitchen.

I turned to Briana, "so what do you think, why did Caleb leave as soon as we mentioned Natalie?"

Briana shrugged, "maybe he's worried too? I'm not really sure..."

"Yeah it seems really weird though..." I looked to the hallway, "that he would just leave, I think something is going on, something weird..."

Soon Danielle brought us out food, pancakes and waffles, and chocolate milk. We thanked her for the meal, and afterwards we all stayed and talked for a bit.

Caleb ran into the kitchen, "guys I need you to come see this, we need two people to get the chime for a body.."

I looked back, "but what if you are just leading us back there to kill us?" I glared at him.

He looked at us confused, "no,no! I swear I found a body!" He pointed back to the hallway, "Come on I can show you where I found it!" We looked to him and back to each other, before shaking our heads, and turned to him.

"How can we trust you?" Danielle asked.

He looked down angrily. "Fine! If you won't come with me then I'll just go by myself!" He turned and ran down the hallway.

"Wow, emotional..." I teased.  We all laughed and started to talk again. About an hour passed and Caleb didn't come back. I brought up this concern, and we all went to search for him. We went up to the party room, but it was locked.

We looked at each other confused. "Did someone lock it?" They shook their heads, "I don't think anyone did..."

"Hm.. That's weird..." I looked around. "Is there another entrance?" We shrugged and started to search around, I headed to the library, I went over to the enchantment table and sat on the edge. I heard a noise,

"oh hello Kat."

I jumped up and stepped away, seeing the ghost like Weston had appeared.

"Oh hi, I haven't seen you in a while. Do you know how we could get into the party room area, in another way,? Because the door is locked." I asked him, hoping he would know.

He thought for a moment, "there's an enchantment table in there, I could get you in through there." He stated happily.

"How would you do that?" I tipped my head to the side and looked at him confused.

"Well there's a spell that could teleport you to an enchantment table, if you picture the room."

I nodded, "ok let me go get the others, don't leave!" I ran off to go find Danielle and Briana. When I found them they were in the kitchen, looking for tools to open the door.

"Guys! I know a way we can get in!" I announced happily. They turned to me.

"Come on I'll show you!" I ran to the library, going to the enchantment table,
The Weston appeared.

"Ready to go?" He asked I nodded turning to Briana and Danielle.

"Oh you know the small room connected to the party room?" I asked, they both nodded, "ok picture that place, and Weston will teleport us." They nodded again.

"Ok on 3... 1..... 2....... 3!" All of the sudden my eyes were blinded by a bright light, the ghost figure I had seen earlier flashed before me before we appeared in the room.

"Woah, that was cool!" I squealed excited.  We walked out of the room to see a body hung up on the wall, a stab wound through its chest. As we got closer we realized who it was.
