CHAPTER SEVEN

Well, let's just say that something must have been happening to the building that we were banging the pipes for because next thing you know, the pipes start moving up and down by themselves and groaning.

"What's that noise?" Says Brand looking around at the pipes.
"Uh oh. That's reverse pressure. We gotta get out of here before that pipe blows!" Says Mouth pointing to a water pipe that was making the most sound.

Before long, that pipe indeed blew and we were being showered in high pressure water. Mouth using his jacket to block it was not helping, but it did break a hole in a wall of rock for us to climb through and escape.

"Cmon guys, let's go. Move, move, move!" Says Brand as he pushes us through the wall.

*-*-*-*-*-*

Poor Chunk was now back at the hideout in the Lighthouse Lounge with all three Fratelli's. Mama with a blender in front of her and some plump tomato's beside her. Jake holding on to a petrified Chunk.

"First we'll start with the little fingers, then the plump little hand, then the fleshy arm" says mama as she turns on the blender and starts adding in the tomato's.
"No, no, please" says Chunk crying.
"Now tell us where your little friends are!" Says Mama turning off the blender.
"They're in the fireplace" says Chunk pointing over his shoulder.
"Don't you lie to me!" Says Mama.
"Honestly, we went over to Mikey's dads place and we found a map that shows there's buried treasure" says Chunk through tears.
"This better not be one of your bullshit story's uh!" Says Jake grabbing the back of Chunks collar.
"Kid, we want you to spill your guts. Tell us everything!" Says Francis grabbing Chunk by the throat.
"Everything?" Says Chunk with a strangled whisper.
"Everything!" Says Francis shaking him.
"Everything. Okay, I'll talk. In third grade I cheated on my history exam. In fourth grade I stole my uncle Max's toupee and glued it on my face when I played Moses in my Hebrew school play. In fifth grade I knocked my sister down the stairs and I blamed it on the dog" says Chunk as he starts word vomiting every...single...thing he's ever done wrong!

*-*-*-*-*-*

We kept walking down a narrow passageway, trying not to trip and fall as we go.

"Hey guys look, it's another lantern!" I say as we get into a wider passageway.
"Must have been from someone who was down here" says Mikey.
"Maybe they're still down here!" Says Data.
"Oh god, I hope not!" Says Stef.

Suddenly Andy walks past us like she was in a trance just rambling to herself.

"Andy. Andy are you okay!" Says Brand patting her on the shoulder trying to snap her out of it.
"Troy was looking down my shirt, who cares, there's nothing wrong with that! I should have been letting him look at my body. Don't I have a beautiful body? I have a beautiful body! How many years do I have before I get all fat, before my hair falls out? Before I look like him! Aghhhh!!" Screams Andy suddenly coming to a stop and pointing at something on the ground.

Low and behold, it was a skeleton that was crushed at some point by a large rock.

*-*-*-*-*-*

Chunk still rambling.

"Then my mom sent me to a summer camp for fat kids and once during lunch, I went nuts and I pigged out and they kicked me out!" Says Chunk in hysterical tears.

The Fratellis just sitting there with their hands on their chins listening.

*-*-*-*-*-*

"Don't touch it guys" says Brand kneeling down.
"This is one of your tricks isn't it one eyed Willy. You wouldn't have gone to all this trouble if your weren't hiding something down here would you!" Says Mikey as he uses his inhaler.

Andy behind us still having another level anxiety attack with Stef trying her best to settle and reassure her that it will all be okay. Although, it would be a little hard to calm another person when your slightly shitting your pants too, not knowing if you'll make it out of this place in one piece!

"He's dead for sure. I think it's Mr Chester Copperpot" says Data next to Brand.
"Who?" Says Mouth.
"You know, Chester Copperpot from the attic. They say the last person to go looking for the rich stuff went in, but never came out! That was back in 1935. Oh god, if he didn't make it out and he was supposed to be an expert! What about us guys, how are we gonna get out of here huh?" Says Data panicking.
"We can't be sure if it's Chester Copperpot" says Mikey holding a book that he found next to the bones.
"I know it's him, I read the article!" Says Data pointing to the skeleton.
"Mouth grab his wallet" says Brand.
"Lou Gehrig?" Says Mikey holding up an old baseball card that was being used as a bookmark.
"You get it Eric" says Mouth hyperventilating.

I grab the wallet out of its pocket and open it up.

"It is Copperpot" I say with a sigh as I hand it to Brand.
"Oh god!" Says Brand screwing up his face.
"See I told you" says Data on the verge of tears.
"Hey guys, look at this. Candles!" Says Mikey as he grabs a handful of red sticks.
"Oh great, I'll put them in my pack" says Data as he grabs them.
"Data, where are you going?" I say as I see him start wandering off.
"I'm setting booty traps" says Data.
"Booby traps" I say correcting him.
"That's what I said, I'm setting booby traps, in case anybody's following us, like the Fratellis so we can hear them coming" says Data.
"Okay hurry up" says Brand.
"Hey data, we're are you going?" Says Stef.
"I'm setting booty traps" he says as he passes.
"Don't you mean booby traps?" Says Stef.
"That's what I said, setting booby traps. Now be quiet, shhh. God these guys" says Data as he walks away.

We start looking over the body for clues and I find a stone that resembles a skull.

"Guys look at this" I say as I wipe the dirt off it.
"Oh wow neat. Let me see that" says Mikey as he grabs it from my hands.

It must have been on a piece of string around Chesters neck because next thing his head falls off.

"Agghhh" we scream together.
"Don't touch it, don't touch it. Oh brand don't touch it" says Mouth crying.

Brand reaches and puts the head back on its shoulders and wipes his hands on Mouth's jacket.

"Now that we've..." starts Mikey but becomes distracted by a rope line on the ground.

Curious, he tugs the rope and it sets off a trap.

"Uh oh" says Mikey going white.
"Guys don't move! Mikeys set off a trap" I scream at the others down the passage.

We look up and suddenly the rocks above start rattling on their chains.

"Oh shit! Guys we gotta haul ass. Data come on move it!" Says Brand grabbing everybody.

Just as Data moves from his original spot, a rock drops down with a thud. Simultaneously they all start to drop down the passage we currently occupy.

"Hurry up" says Stef as we grab Data by his backpack and haul him up onto a ledge.
"That was close" says Brand wiping his brow.
"Too close" I say shaking like a leaf.
