Thomas " i think it's best if we all slept in the same room and between the three of us we'll take watch to see what's really happening just to make sure "

Lilly " you're right I'll talk to Jessy and calm her down "

Cleo " okay I'll talk to Hannah , Thomas you can stay here with MC "

Mc " I'm just going to lie here for  and close my eyes for a minute "

Thomas " it's okay go ahead and rest "

I don't know what woke me up but I was in my bed when I looked around. Thomas was sitting in a chair.

Mc " What time is it Thomas ?"

Thomas " its two in the morning "

Mc " Have you slept at all ?"

Thomas " yes Lilly took first watch "

Hannah was awake i was about to call to her but realized her eyes were closed i looked Jessy wasn't here  so i whispered to Thomas

Mc " where's jessy ?"

Thomas " she wouldn't come "

Mc " what is Hannah doing ?"

She was standing facing the wall unmoving. What on earth was she doing  so I went over to the wall and turned on the lights. There was a loud peal of thunder then suddenly the lights went out .

Thomas "  what the hell "

MC "  it's just the thunder and lightning we'll take care of it tomorrow "

Lilly and cleo were now awake

Lilly " what happened ?"

Thomas " the lights are out because of the storm "

We put Hannah back to bed and went back to sleep.That morning the storm still didn't let up what we thought would be something to a normal day. We all went running when we heard Marie screaming. I was tired of my mornings starting with someone screaming . We heard her in the living room when we rushed in i was left breathless cleo and Jessy started screaming too George was on the ground dead  with raven feathers all around him .

Mc " oh god "

Thomas " we have to get out of here "

Marie " there is no way to leave not until the storm clears up "

I walked over to him and bent down

Thomas " MC please don't "

Mc " I'm talking advantage of this , we also need to call the police , especially Alan because the local police won't understand the  Situation "

When I bent down next to him I saw what killed him, a single gunshot wound to the head.

Mc " He was shot in the head "

Cleo " why didn't we hear anything ?"

Mc " the storm covered it up . Marie, please call the local police . Lilly after she's finished please borrow her phone and call Alan"

Lilly " Okay "

Cleo " Hannah are you okay ?"

She was pointing at something in the wall when we looked at what she saw. I felt the blood draining out of me when I saw what was on the wall .

"  YOU'LL ALL DIE , WE'RE HERE TO FINISH WHAT STARTED IN DUSKWOOD "

jessy " we need to get out of here "

Mc " how Jessy there's a damn storm outside go look at the sea "

Cleo " okay everyone calm down please "

Just then lilly walked into the room

Lilly " I told Alan what happened , but there's no way for them to get here, not until the storm let's up. Alan said to take pictures of the crime scene and cover the body .What are you all looking at "

We pointed it out to her

Lilly " what do we do ?"

Mc " we can't just leave him here "

Cleo " we have to MC "

Mc " we all stay together now you too Maire , no one goes anywhere in the house alone , Marie please help me we'll lock off a part of the House.

Thomas " that would be best "

We all helped cover George's body and closed off the living room we all went to the kitchen and sat down no one was really hungry

Hannah " I'll be back i need to use the washroom "

Lilly " Cleo please go with her "

Hannah " I'm just going to the washroom ,i don't need a security guard for that "

Lilly " Someone is dead Hannah , he's laying in the living room dead or isn't that good enough of a reason for you "

Jessy " I'll go too i need to take a shower "

Thomas " has either of you noticed that Hannah hasn't reacted to seeing the body ?"

Lilly " what do you mean ?"

Thomas " Jessy started screaming but Hannah was just standing there, she was more interested and concerned about what was on the wall "

Mc " I don't think Hannah is okay "

Just then jessy and cleo ran into the kitchen

Cleo " you need to see this but be quiet "

So we followed them they led us to Hannah's room they wispered to be quiet . There was drops of blood all over the floor if you didn't look properly you wouldn't see it cleo bent down and pulled a bag out from under the bed it was Hannah's red bag it was full of raven feathers.

Mc " what the fuck "

We could hear her singing in the bathroom i showed them to put it back , we went back to the kitchen and sat down .

Mc " how did you know it was there?"

Cleo " i suggested we use the bathroom in the master bedroom but she said she needed something from her room so we followed her but she wouldn't let us go in so Jessy and i peeped through the keyhole i saw her pull something out from under the bed , then her hands were red i asked Jessy to make sure we saw the same thing "

Lilly " I can't believe this she's the one that's been scaring us "

Mc " but what's her reasons , why is she doing it ? Why would she do something like this ?"

Jessy " that day she really did cut me i swear  and that night she did that to herself i would never hurt her or anyone or lie about something like this"

Thomas " I can't understand this , we thought they found us but in reality it was her "

Just then she walked into the room

Hannah " are you talking about me?"

Mc " yes we actually have a suprise for you "

Hannah "i like surprises "

Mc " then you're going to love the one that we have for you "
