Laine sat in her room, playing with Debbie's penguin key chain. As she moved it around, she noticed the head slightly pop off. With furrowed eyebrows she pulled off the head and saw it was actually a USB stick.

She put it into her laptop that was in front of her. There were videos files on it and she clicked on the first one.

It was of Debbie in her room.

"Operation Clean House." Debbie jumped into frame, flexing her muscles. "I get to clean the attic!"

Video two played.

Debbie appeared back on screen but her skin had first and sweat all over it. "God. All right. Attic done. I did the best I could. I'm not gonna lie, that was not fun. However, I did find something. Along with a lot of old junk from the previous owners." She lifted up the board, the same one Laine had found. "Ta-da! It's cool, right? Oh." She also picked up the planchette and put it on the board. "They go together."

"She found it in her house." Laine mumbled, leaning towards the the screen.

"Do I like my find?" She moved the planchette across the board herself. "Yes. Am I cleaning the attic again? No."

Debbie moved herself and the board to the bed.  "Answer my question. I'm waiting." She waited as the planchette moved. "R."

"She played alone?" Laine gasped.

"H I F R I E N D. Whoa. Hi, friend."

Behind Laine she heard grunts coming from her bed and turned around, seeing Hunter asleep with a scrunched up face. He had come over to try and get some sleep.

She closed the laptop and stood up, making her way over to the bed.

"No... no..." He mumbled as his head moved from side to side.

She frowned sat down on the bed, running her fingers through his hair. "It's okay. I'm right here, Hunter. I'm right here." She said softly.

He moved his head more into her hand, his mumbles going quiet. She continued to run he fingers through his hair, watching as he started to calm down, his eyebrows relaxing.

She would stay by his side to make sure he got a good night sleeps.

After driving down a long, dark road, Isabelle made it back to her house. She turned off her car and got out before unlocking her house and going inside.

She got changed into her pyjamas before going to the bathroom to do her nightly routine. She turned the water on to the bath to let it fill up and went to the mirror. She pulled out her floss and began to floss her teeth, looking at herself in the mirror.
