House Of Wax : Nick Jones FF ✅

Eleven. 11

Nick and Dalton were clicking their beers, not bothering to help Wade and Blake as they attempted to figure out a plan for his car. Blake's truck won't even be able to fit everyone unless you sit in the truck but with that. Police will surely stop them.

"NICK! DALTON!" The sudden yell of Paige caught everyone's ears. Not even question what it was or why. Nick was the first to run out and pushed his beer to Blake who was in the closet before running straight into the woods. "Paige?!" He called out, he knew that Paige would only call him if something had happened to Lilian.

The moment he reached the girls, he noticed that Lilian was missing but he didn't need to ask when Paige gave him the story already. "I-It's Lilian. She's stuck!" That was enough for him to know as he pushed past Paige, even glaring at Carly before he came to shock at the sight. "NICK!! HELP ME!! PLEASE!!" Lilian's cries broke him, he carefully stepped down the hill as he called out for her, "Hey! Hey! I'm here." He tries to soothe her with his voice.

The others had just joined the scene; they couldn't match Nick's speed. But when they did arrive Dalton reacted, "SHIT! LILIAN!" / "Dalton?" Lilian called out for him too. He trailed after Nick not caring about his clothes or how dangerous. "We're here Lil!" While the others tried their best to follow after, sliding carefully.

Nick reached her first, sliding down, not caring that one of his feet and shoe got drowned in the carcasses. His only priority was Lilian. "I got you. I got you." Lilian put her arms around him, being careful not to touch him knowing that her arms were not flowing with the deceased animal's blood. She began crying into his neck, scared and worried. "I'm here, baby."

He pulled her up from her waist to Dalton who found a secure land for rest. Dalton reaches out, grabbing under her shoulder to pull her up. Once Lilian was safe and secure on land he obediently pulled her head up to scan her body. "Hey, you're okay. Nothing happened. Just a little blood. We'll get you cleaned up."

Nick stepped up beside her, now looking at her, noticing her tears and red eyes. He grew angry, biting his inner cheeks he glared at Paige and Carly. "How the hell did this happen!" The adrenaline rush from running to Lilian's scared now turned into fury at everyone.

Blake pulled Paige away, asking if she was fine while Wade and Carly were more focused on the pit of rotten animal carcasses. "Yeah, that seems about right." / "God it's awful." They all looked at the pit, taking a good minute before they turned at Lilian's words, "T-There's a h-hand in there." Her voice was broken and fragile, tears still rolling down her now red cheeks.

There they all saw it but no one said anything.

Paige pulled out a water bottle from her purse to Dalton who helped Lilian wash off the blood on her arms and chin. But they couldn't do anything much for now with the one submerged in her clothes. The little situation had only added another person when a truck came driving closer to the pit.

"Is that the truck from last night?" Blake asked. "Not unless he fixed his headlight." was Wade's reply. Everyone watched as the truck pulled back to the pit. There you can see the knife, hunting gears, and dead reindeer, from headless to just a head. It stopped and out came a strange, rural man. As if not noticing them, he went on casually throwing another dead animal into the pile.

"HEY!" Carly called out to him. "Don't you see that!" she points out to the hand Lilian was warning around about. The man gave the group a raise of an eyebrow, something about him was creepy and uncomfortable. It didn't help the case when he casually walked up on the pile of flesh and blood as if nothing to the hand sprouting out.

"No way!" / "What the hell is he doing?" Everyone muttered. Nick growled at the man before gesturing his head to Dalton who covered Lilian from the sight, not wanting her to see a body being dragged out from the pit she was just in.

It seemed to be a struggle as the man pulled the hand, before a second later it popped out. A mannequin hand, "Anyone need a hand? I'm just fooling!" He laughs out, creeping them more. "It's not a hand. You see?" He continues to knock on the fake hand to prove his point.

"Man, what the hell!" Blake rolled his eyes. Carly too got annoyed at it. "I found it on the side of the road a few weeks ago." He started a conversation with the teenagers. But only half of them were paying him any attention. "What are you guys doing out here?" He tried to come closer to them, still in the pit.

"Nick? Dal?" Lilian's soft and hush call snaps the two boys' attention. They become worried seeing how pale her face becoming and it is clear she is trying to hold back her vomit. Now that her clothes are filled with the same smell it made her more nauseous easily.

Nick hurriedly understood as he stripped herself from his tank top. Leaving him half-naked while Dalton took off his jacket. Not wanting to wait anymore or be in her current clothes no more. She without hesitation strips too. Dalton quickly covered her using his jacket with eyes wide as he looked around to see if anyone saw.

Paige went over to help Lilian change, while Nick stood before the three, using his build to cover Lilian more. While glaring at the creepy dude who he noticed was trying to get a glimpse at his girl. "Keep your eyes away." He intimidates to which the man quickly raises his hand up in defeat knowing he won't win.

As Lilian changed, she had better breathing now that she was far from her stained clothes. She was only able to catch up with the conversation about a fan belt and a town named Ambrose to meet someone named Bo. "I can give you a ride if you want?" The man gave out, surprising Wade who agreed.

"I'll go with you!" Carly imminently cut in. Paige tried to reason with her friend but Carly was glued to following Wade. Blake looks between his group of friends, as he scratches his nape nervously, "... Could one more of you guys go too?"

"What?" Paige frowned at her boyfriend. "Look, my truck can't fit everyone unless you want to be pulled over. So..." Paige started hitting him, getting angry at his idea. Nick rolled his eyes, getting irate by the situation now just wanting to get the day over with. Dalton didn't even hear Blake since he was more focused on helping Lilian put his jacket around her to be cozier and warm

And that left Lilian since Blake would want Paige to go. And to everyone's surprise, she spoke.

"I ...I'll go with them."
