Kie walks up closer, gently pulling the front off, looking down at the wiring with furrowed eyebrows.
"Where are the breakers?" She whispers.
"What is this..?" Melia mumbles, shaking her head. She looked up at the wiring connected to the top of it, following it in its path.
"Shit." She whispers.
She points her flashlight up, showing the wiring leading inside of the house.
"It goes inside the house..." She looks at the other three girls nervously.
//////////////////////
Melia looks back at the other girls with a nervous look in her eye, the two of them
silently pleading with her to not open the door. She shakes her head slightly, wincing as she pulls open the creaky gate.She hesitantly puts her hand out, twisting the knob on the door gently and giving it a little push.
Clang!
The door opened.
It creaks quietly as Melia steps a single foot inside, nodding at the two girls behind her as if to tell them to follow. She creeps further, making sure she can hear their footsteps behind her.
The three of them point their flashlights around, squinting to try and see if there was anybody near.
Mrow!
"Fuck off!" Melia whisper yells, shaking her leg to try rid of the cat digging it's claws into her. She gets it off, feeling her skin split as it loses contact.
"Be quiet..!" Kie scolds her quietly, shooting the curly haired curl a glare.
"It grabbed my le-" Melia starts, being cut off by Sarah pointing her flashlight up to the breaker wire.
"Yeah, alright. Come on." Sarah whispers, gesturing for the bickering girls to follow her through.
Melia limps slightly, the newfound injury on her leg proving to hurt a little more than it should.
Bastard cat.
They tip-toe further into the house, turning a corner with the wire. Melia points her flashlight at the wall and a smile grows on her face as she was greeted with the circuit box.
The three girls chuckle softly, nodding at one another. Kie steps forward, reading the controls.
"Alright.." She whispers, grabbing the switch and pushing it gently.
Click!
She grabs the other switch, pushing that one as-well.
Click!
The sound of the generators powering down fills the room, Melia laughs quietly to herself.
"Okay, let's go meet the boys!" She says, smiling widely.
A floorboard creaks in the distance, and Sarah gasps quietly. They all back up against the wall, peering out into the hallway.
