Inside the house, Eddie ran against the time, he decided to try on the second floor, but the stairs were cracking and showing signs that they were some kind of trap.

Eddie: ....

Eddie was analyzing the situation, on what he could do.

Flora: 'Cough' 'Cough'

Eddie: ... Sorry honey, i need you to be strong now, okay?

Flora: 'Nod'

'CRACK!' 'CRACK!'

Flora: ?!

Eddie broke his arms and knees, making them bend backwards, and then he started crawling on the wall like a spider, Flora was holding Eddie with all her strength to not take a risk and fall.
While crawling

'CRASH!'

Tentacles appeared, they tried to grab Eddie, but he dodged them and used his twisted limbs to do strange acrobatics moves, Flora now was holding Eddie with all her strength, everything was okay until.

'WRAP!'

Flora: Gah!

Eddie: ?!

Eddie stopped to try and help her, but with that

'POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!!'

The tentacles hitted him, Eddie was launched against a wall, but when he looked in front of him

'SHOCK!' 'Thump'

Flora somehow... Absorbed the tentacles? Eddie ran to her side 

Eddie: Are you alright? What happened?

Flora: 'Cough' I.. I don't know

When Flora opened her eyes, Eddie saw that they were dark, at least her sclera was black, but her pupils were yellow and green.

Eddie: ....

He helped her get on his back again, Eddie was searching, on the first room, it was pretty normal and okay.

Eddie: ....

He prepared again and kicked down the door, but this time, nothing happened.

Eddie: ..... Child, do you trust me?

Flora: ? Why do you ask?

Eddie: Do you trust me or not?

Flora: I-I guess so?

Eddie: Good.

He holded her and then

'FWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!'

Flora: ?!

Threw her to the bed in the middle of the room.

Flora: Hey! What was that fo-

'SCHKNIT!'

Eddie rolled forward, the entire hall floor was a spike trap that almost caught him.

Flora: ?!

Eddie: .... 

'SCHKNIT!'

Eddie: ?!

Flora: Watch out!

Eddie rolled to the side, a spike almost caught him, Eddie had to move more and more, it was until

'WRAP!'

One tentacle appeared and wrapped itself on Eddie's body, a spike was coming to and was about to stab him but

'WRAP!'
