Destiny Bond's: The Tale Of Ghost Dog!

chapter 16

The Macabreus were determined to follow Ramzis in his search for the truth.

Despite their fears and doubts, they knew they had to continue with their mission.

Luis led the group while Ramzis guided them through the streets towards the abandoned farm. Buck, being a St. Bernard, stayed behind to rest.

"You guys go ahead! I'll meet you there!" exclaimed Buck.

"Are you sure?" Luis asked.

Buck confirmed, "Yes."

"Take care, buddy," said Luis as the group moved forward.

Upon arrival, they discovered a dilapidated place with dead plants and a rundown abandoned house.

There were no signs of animals or any other living presence besides them.

"It seems like there's nothing here," Caio said, unsure.

"Don't give up, we might still find something," said Luis, encouraging everyone to keep searching. "Do you remember anything else, buddy?"

"There was a hidden door that led to the place where it all started," explained Ramzis.

Ramzis tried to remember and noticed an unusual opening in front of him.

"Guys," said Ramzis as he approached the door, which was hidden by some bushes and weeds. After opening it, they discovered that it led to an underground passage.

"Who knows what could be there?" Matheus asked, terrified.

Caio and Matheus began to pray while Luis illuminated the path with his cellphone flashlight and entered with Tyler and Ramzis.

"Wait," shouted Caio and Matheus.

Tyler was next to Ramzis, who stared fixedly at a dark corner. As they descended further down the stairs, they discovered something none of them expected: an underground chamber with bizarre overgrown plants.

"Well, if the plants above are dead, these should be too!" questioned Caio.

"What a foul smell!" complained Tyler. "Yuck!"

"This doesn't make sense!" exclaimed Luis. "Where is this smell coming from?"

Tyler heard a noise in the background and said, "Guys..."

Luis spotted the flashlight revealing that under the plants, in their roots, there were decomposing animal carcasses. That explained the unbearable stench.

"Oh my God!" said Caio horrified.

"It seems they're killing the animals and using them as some sort of fertilizer," said Matheus, carefully inspecting the area.

"But why?" Tyler exclaimed. "Guys! We need to get out of here! Now!"

As they tried to escape, the door slammed shut, and the group rushed to try and open it.

"Why won't it open?" exclaimed Matheus, attempting to force the door open.

"No! No! No!" Caio spoke desperately. "This can't be happening! It's impossible!"

Meanwhile, a series of bodies began to contort and merge, leaving everyone silent. They looked on in complete horror.

"The good news is that we'll be joining you soon, Ramzis!" Tyler joked.

"What?" asked Ramzis.

"Yuck," said Matheus, and Tyler realized his joke was only increasing their despair.

Matheus, impatient, started to challenge Ramzis's trustworthiness.

"How can we trust him?" He's one of them!"

Luis defended his friend, trying to calm everyone down.

"He's not! He's not!" said Luis.

Caio, Matheus, and the others desperately tried to leave the house when they noticed there were two more doors.

"It's locked!" shouted Caio, struggling to open the door.

"Everything is locked!" exclaimed Matheus, frustrated.

Even after questioning Ramzis's trust, Luis didn't lose hope in finding a solution.

"Stay calm, we'll get out of here!" said Luis. "Just stay calm!"

Luis had an idea as he thought of an escape plan.

"Let's look for another passage! There must be another way out!" suggested Luis.

"Why don't we try escaping through the roof?" Ramzis asked, offering a brilliant idea. "Tyler, you're our escape expert. Try to find a way out through the roof!"

"Alright!" Tyler agreed, taking back the lead and guiding the group through the farm's facilities in search of a safe escape.

Tyler took charge and bravely led the group through the bizarre farm facilities.

They ran as fast as they could, wary of the slow and menacing monsters that pursued them.

The only way out was through the door, but there was no way to escape with those things blocking it.

They locked themselves in a secure room. They barricaded the door with old furniture. The group desperately tried to keep the door closed as the monsters attempted to break it down.

"It's all your fault, Luis!" shouted Matheus, looking at him. "You brought us into this hell! What kind of friend puts others at risk?"

"This only happened because you guys doubted Ramzis and forced him to bring us here." "I did nothing!" Luis replied.

"Shut up, Luis, are you playing the victim now?" said Matheus. "The point is, we're trapped here, and I don't see a way out."

Luis took a deep breath, still recovering from the shock.

"What else could happen in this damn farm?"

Ramzis put his paw on Luis's shoulder and said firmly,

"Stay calm, Luis. No matter what happens, we'll face it together."

They continued to press against the door with objects, hoping to keep it closed while searching for an exit.

The creatures kept fighting, but the Macabreus never gave up.

It was at this point that Tyler noticed a hidden staircase leading down to the basement of the house.

"Guys, I found a way out, follow me!" Tyler said.

"Did you hear him? Let's go!" shouted Ramzis.

Without hesitation, everyone ran following Tyler. The creatures knocked down the door, and Ramzis stopped and fought back against them, while Luis noticed.

"Ramzis!" shouted Luis.

"Go! I'll hold them off!" yelled Ramzis.

When they reached the bottom, they found a secure door.

"I think we can get out through here," said Tyler as he examined the window.

"If we don't have any other option..." Caio agreed with Tyler.

When Luis opened the door, everyone jumped out. However, Luis didn't go with his friends. He took out his spiced weapons from his backpack and went to help Ramzis.

The others looked on in shock, still terrified from everything they had experienced, panting and covered in sweat.

"Where's Luis?" Tyler asked.
