I looked at Priscilla's dead, bloody body. Wait- what!? "She's gone!" I gasped. Her body disappeared! And so did the chainsaw, it disappeared out of my hand. "That...can't be good," Leah bit her lip. She stood up and looked at me, "I don't feel safe without some kind of weapon," she crossed her arms. "Well, where are we gonna find one?" I shrugged. She went over to an old dusty drawer. She grunted, pulling on the handle, "Ugh! It's locked!" She shook the drawer, objects rattling around inside. "I'll look for a key," I stooped down and looked under the bed.

I looked in the closet and found a shoe box. I opened it and a gold key glittered inside. "I found it!" I unlocked the drawer and opened it. Leah gasped and smiled. There were two butcher knives inside. "I've a feeling these will come in handy," I smirked, taking one of the knives and filing my nails with it. Leah took the other one and threw it at the wall. The wall cracked, with the knife sticking in it. "Hm, it stabs pretty good," she grinned, taking it out of the wall. "Yeah," I chuckled.

I looked over at the closet, a little box sat beside it. "Hey, that wasn't there before," I said, pointing to the box. "Strange," Leah mumbled, walking over to it. She picked it up and studied it for a couple moments. There was a little handle on it. She cranked it and a little nursery rhyme played. "Pfft," she rolled her eyes, "It's just a jack-in-the-box." Suddenly, the box opened and the creepy little jack came out, covered in blood, laughing maniacally. "AAH!" Leah yelped and dropped the box. The jack stretched out real long and grabbed us, pulling us into the box with it.

~A couple hours later~

We woke up in a strange dark room, bright colours gracefully swirling around us. "What is this place?" Leah stood up and looked around. I was lying on the floor with my hands over my face. "I don't feel good about this," I groaned. "Oh, come on," Leah sighed, helping me up. "Well, hello," Priscilla smiled, "We meet again."

Leah took out her knife and threw it at Priscilla. The knife went right through her, not even hurting her. "You can't kill me now~" Priscilla giggled. "But I can kill you! HAHAHAHAHA!!" She ran toward Leah with her chainsaw. "NO!! STOP!! AAAH!!" Leah ran around the room as fast as she could. I gasped, putting my hand over my mouth, sweating, and tears in my eyes. I didn't know what to do. If I lost Leah...I don't know if I would be able to go on...I'm sorry, I'm getting all wishy-washy again.

"AHAHAHAHA!!" Priscilla laughed, hurling her chainsaw at Leah. "OH!! NO!!" I sobbed, turning away and covering my eyes. "You haven't seen the last of me," Priscilla growled, disappearing into thin air. I thought Priscilla had killed Leah..."Elvis," Leah said quietly, "She missed." I turned around. Leah stood there, the chainsaw sticking in the wall right above her head. "Oh, darling!" I threw my arms around her, hugging and crying, kissing her all over. "Stop it, Elvis," Leah giggled and blushed. I gasped and stopped hugging as the wall opened up into another portal. Leah turned around and peered inside, "Well...should we go in?" She bit her lip. I took a deep breath and nodded. "Alright," she nodded back, taking my hand. We stepped inside. The portal swirled around and around like a washing machine. It made me feel a bit dizzy.
