The Dead Man Walking

Jonathon "In there" he says to him.

Daniel looks at him, with a scared look in his eyes.

Daniel begins to walk slowly towards the door, as Jonathon lowers his arm.

Daniel grabs the handle of the door as he slowly opens it, you can hear the squeaking of the door handle as he opens the door, and it slowly cracks open, he then see's what was inside the room, he looked horrified.

Daniel "Oh - my - god" he says terrified.

Inside the room - a body was placed there, with blood all over the body - the body was no other than Brandon the bus driver - who the gang heard screaming, and went out to search for him.

Daniel realises it was Brandon, he was horrified and doesn't know what to do.

Daniel "We have to get the hell out of here" he says to the gang.

SUDDENLY.

They heard a noise coming from upstairs - which sounded like footsteps - someone entered the house, the footprints could be heard from the wooden floor upstairs.

They were all looking up as the footsteps could be heard, the person was walking slowly and heavily like they were wearing heavily booths.

They realise that, the footsteps were going towards the basement door, towards them.

Jonathon "Fuck - where do we go?" He asks them.

Daniel "Hide somewhere - stay quiet" he says softly.

They all hide - there was another door on the opposite side - that they all decided to go towards and hide in.

Rachel opens the door, and they couldn't see anything in there as it was as dark as closing your eyes.

The footsteps were approaching them.

Everyone enters the room - as Rachel then goes in and closes the door behind her.

It was a smelly dark room, there was a key hole on the door, as Daniel decided to look through the key hole to see if he can see who this person is.

Jennifer then realises that she is touching someone from behind her, but it was non of the gang.

She slowly looks behind her, but she couldn't see who it was, she could make out that is was a shape of a person.

Meanwhile Daniel was looking through the key hole, he could see the man entering the room, he could hear the footsteps perfectly, as they were loud, and he see's the cowboy hat and the long cote that stormed pass the door to the other side of the room.

Daniel "Fuck" he whispers to himself nervously.

He could hear noice coming from outside but couldn't make it out on what the noise was.

While Jennifer - was slowly getting out her phone, and she points the screen away from her and towards the body figure, Thomas see's her doing this, Jennifer then turns the screen on, as the light shines towards the body figure.

SUDDENLY.

In - front of her, there was a dead body, with all of the skin peal off and eyes out of her head, Jennifer was ready to scream, as Thomas grabs her from behind and grabs her mouth as a way to keep her quiet from screaming and the man outside hearing her.

Thomas "Shhhh" he whispers to her.

Meanwhile Daniel was still looking through the key hole, he could hear draws opening and closing, he then hears the footprints approaching again.

He was slowly breathing heavily as he couldn't make out if he was walking towards them or the exit.

Daniel see's him storming pass their door and towards the stairs - he could hear the door closing, and the footsteps going up the stairs.

Daniel then breathes slowly and softly, the footsteps couldn't be heard as the man could be gone.
