When the boys had found out we only had a week before we would all turn into the rumors of being dead, we all started giving up hope of making it out. So, we spent five days lying about trying to heal from the cuts and bruises. On the sixth day Vance tried breaking out the freezer with the help of Bruce. Billy was trying again the window using Griffin and Finn as his help buddies leaving me and Robin laying on the bed staring at the ceiling soon, they all gave up though joining me and Robin.

"I guess we're all going to die" I mumble sitting up a bit tapping at the bed trying to repress the overwhelming sadness.

"At least we will all go out together" Finn said sitting in between me and Robin as he reached his hand over, wrapping his fingers in mine. Suddenly Robin shot up out of bed looking at us.

"We're not going to die"

"Robin, we tried escaping it didn't work"

"So, let's just fight the grabber"

"Fuck yeah" Vance said sitting up looking ready to beat the shit out of anyone.

"You two already tried and got both your ass kicked" Griffin said, earning daggers from both of them.

"Wait, who knows how to fight?" Bruce asked, perching up to the idea. Robin, Vance, and me raised our hands up. "You three will fight the grabber"

Soon we started forming another plan, this time to fight as Bruce and Finn had the job to run for their life to get help while Griffin would look around the grabber house in hope for a phone to dial the police and Billy had the job to keep the dog distracted. I got up to use the bathroom when I noticed a black phone hanging on the wall. Nobody had mentioned it before, so they probably tried to call for help down here but the wiring was disconnected. I took a quick stop to the bathroom coming back, taking the phone wrapping my finger around the cord before snapping it off.

"(y/n) the fuck are you doing" Vance asked leaning against the wall.

"I'm going to use this as a weapon" I said, hitting the phone against my hand.

"How's a fucking phone going to be a weapon"

"You'll see" I said, walking over to the pile of dirt left by the wall as I unscrewed the top, filling it up with dirt, putting it back, hitting the phone against my palm and packing it in. we still had time to kill so we all decided to strike up a conversation about what we do once we all escape.

"I'm going to play pinball again" Vance said which wasn't a surprise to all of us "if someone beat my fucking high score I'm going to-"

"Easy boy" I said, laying my hand on his shoulder patting it a few times. He gave me a snort leaning against the wall mumbling something that I wasn't able to catch on.

"I'm going to spend time with my family and see my teammates" Bruce said, deeply missing baseball and his youngest sister Amy.

"I'm going to the driver in with my uncle to see Texas chainsaw massacre again" Robin said

"See Gwen" Finn said leaning against Robin

"I'm hoping to see Rover again and cuddle him all day" Billy said with a sigh, leaning against his arm.

"I'm going to spend time with my mother" Griffin said with a bright smile. That left me as the last one to talk. To be honest I didn't know what I would do once I got out of here as I gave them a shrug staring at the ground.

 "I don't know, I just hope to make it out" I said, pulling my legs close to my chest. I still had doubt if we would make it out alive suddenly the light flicker as we all ran over to the bed ready in position for what was to come my fingers curled around the phone. The door perked open as a head poke out not of the grabber but some other man as he looked around the room then right to us.

"No fucking way" he said pushing the door open a little more. He must have been the other guy I heard yesterday.

 "Can you help us?" Finn asked, pleading in a way.

 "Can you call the police???" Griffin asked quickly moving closer

"Woah woah just stay calm my name Max, woah you all were here all this time no wonder my brother didn't want me coming here. Do you want to know the story of how I found you?"

"We don't have fucking time for a story" Vance said. Suddenly the door swung open as the grabber came into view plunging a knife right through his brother's chest. We all started screaming even Vance screamed a bit. Max started spurting blood out his mouth as the grabber took the knife pulling it out, shoving Max out of his way.

"Look what you brats made me do" the grabber said, stepping down wearing only the top half of the mask along with a white shirt stained in drops of blood and some light brown pants.

"You killed him, it wasn't our fault" I said leaning close to Vance's side once the grabber stared down at me looking at my hand.

"What's with the phone? I told you it doesn't work" he said, growing angrier tapping the knife against the wall. "You know I'm going to really enjoy this"

A smirk had crawled to his lip as we all pushed close together just waiting for the right moment as he tilted his head back to the stairs.

"Samson!" he shouted as the dog came running down growling at us. He took the dog collar pulling on a chain that was connected, leading the dog over putting him on a hook so the dog wouldn't come charging at us but made sure we couldn't leave the basement. "Which one of you wants the first go?"

He started stalking us gripping the knife tightly as we gave each other one final glance nodding our heads before running right at him. I took the phone swinging it at his head making him jump back dropping the knife gripping his head. Vance and Robin wasted no time pulling him down to the floor while Billy went to the freezer picking up the raw meat, throwing it over to the dog giving the three others a chance to run out of there. The grabber was still stronger though throwing both the boys off racing over to grab his knife I was quick to react trying to get to the knife but not fast enough as the grabber got a hold of it taking his other hand wrapping it around my wrist pulling me close to him as he struck the knife right into my chest. I let out a scream pulling myself away gripping at my shirt. Blood was already pooling around the area I couldn't give up though not for them.  the grabber turned his attention to both the boys that's when I remembered the hole we dug if I could get him there.  the grabber let out a chuckle as I realized Vance and Robin were both lying on the ground painting the floor with their blood.  that's when I saw red rushing at the grabber taking away his knife digging it in his leg as he shouted turning his attention to me.  I took off quickly running jumping over the hole waiting for him to charge at me. he took the knife pulling it out of his leg rushing over to me as Billy took a wire from the wall making the grabber trip right into the hole. there was no time to back down now as I took the phone cord jumping over the man wrapping it around his neck cutting off fresh air. He was tugging at the cord trying to keep it away from his neck struggling to get fresh air in. I wasn't going to let this man hurt anyone else, so I took the cord pulling him down a little so I could look him dead in the eye.

"Fuck you" I whisper pulling his head back. Snap! a last breath escapes his lip. I drop the cord pushing myself away leaning against the wall. the grabber was gone now the nightmare over.
