Chapter Eleven Griffin's Call
-˚ʚ♡ɞ˚-
"
WHATS YOUR NAME?" The Grabber asks Finney. "Oh I hope he doesn't lie." I say, leaning onto Billy's shoulder.
"Why do you care?" Finney asks and he smiles. " I usually don’t. I find out eventually in the paper. They always print a nice, big photo with all the details I could ever want. All the things you kids lie about." He says and Finney freezes.
"I'm thinking about it." He says smirking. "What a lie." Griffin says.
"I promise I won’t tell anyone. You can blindfold me, drop me off on the street. I’ll walk home." Finney pleads and I frown.
"Well, tell me your name."
"Taylor. Taylor, Mullen."
The Grabber kicked a tray making the six ghosts and Finney jump.
"I was really starting to like you, Finney. I almost let you go."
He walks upstairs and the six ghosts sit in a circle. "Which one of you dipshits wants to talk to him next." I ask and turn to the three boys who haven't spoke to Finney yet. "I will!" Griffin says and walks over to the phone.

F - "Hello?"
G - "You don't have much time."
G - "The Grabber hasn’t been sleeping. He thinks this might be it. That he’s gonna figure it out.
F - "who's gonna figure out?"
G - "his brother upstairs"
F - "Are you Griffin?"
G - "Who?"
F - "Griffin Stagg"
G - "probably. It’s all a little hazy, but I imagine you know all our names. Every kid does."
F - "I didn't know you"
G - "Nobody did. You spend so many years invisible, and then every kid in the state knows your name. You don’t have much time."
F - "Why hasn't he killed me?"
G - "you won't played the game. You have to play the game. If you don’t play, he can’t win."
F - "What game?"
G - "Naughty boy. If you don’t play Naughty Boy, The Grabber can’t beat you. And if he can’t beat you, he can’t move on to the next part. And the next part of Naughty Boy is his favorite part.
F - "What's the next part?"
G - "You don’t have much time."
F - "You said that."
G - "hes not been sleeping."
F - "You said that too."
G - "Yeah? Well he is now. In his chair. He passed out waiting for you to play."
F - "What good does that do me? Wait. The door is still unlocked."
G - "it's still unlocked."
F - "Do I just go?"
G - There’s a combination lock on the inside of the storm door. It was my bike lock."
F - "Your bike lock?"
G - "Yeah. He took it when he took me."
F - "what the combination?"
G - "I don't remember"
F - "Griffin."
G - "I remember being afraid I’d forget it. That’s why I wrote it down."
F - "What? Where?*
G - "I carved it with a bottle cap in the wall."
F - "Which wall? Which wall?!"
G - "The one on the right, about shoulder height when you’re sitting down."
G- "I can’t remember. You’ll have to try them all. And you’ll have to be very quiet about it."
F- "Yeah. Okay. Thanks."

Griffin hangs up the phone and Finney walks upstairs. Griffin looked more pale then all of us We follow him up and walk past The Grabber. Finney tries each code and on the last one he gets it.
"Go Finney." I say and he drops the lock making a noise. The Grabber sits up and see's him. "What a dumbass." Vance says and Robin elbows him. Finney runs out and The Grabber runs after him and hops in his van.
The six of us walk back into the basement. "How much you wanna bet that Finney comes back." I say. "Bet." Bruce's says and we shake on it. I lay down on the mattress. "
I'm sleeping on here tonight." I say as they laugh. "I'll join" Billy says and sits on the mattress. "Uhm no you won't." Robin says and lays on the mattress. "I'll sleep on the floor with Billy then" I say and lay next to Billy.
"I hate you both." Robin says and we laugh. By the end of the night somehow Vance, Griffin, Bruce, and Robin all fit on the mattress while Billy and I slept on the floor.

Bruce and Valerie making bets on if Finney makes it back was such a random idea for me. That's enough chapters for today.
