>>>>><Where it All Started><<<<<<
The teacher started yet another of his rants."Okay everyone, I'm sure you already know, but I'm going to go over today's schedule one last time. It takes eight hours to get to Savannah. In about four hours, around noon, we'll stop to get something to eat. Once we get to Savannah, you and your groups will have two hours to eat, go on tours, look at historic monuments, explore the area, goof off, etc. After, we'll all meet back up at the bus and head to the motels. Everyone who has a phone has added Mr. Lee's, Mrs. Sarah's, and my number, correct? Alright, then let's get this show on the road!"
I had sat next to the window, and Aiden had sat beside me, messing with a puzzle cube. Ben and Logan sat behind us, the twins in front of us.
I was lost in my thoughts before I was interrupted by Aiden's voice.
"Wanna try?"He opened his bag to reveal many puzzles. It was funny, and I couldn't help but smile.
I grabbed one of the 3x3 blocks out of his bag, meanwhile he solved one in like 0.3 seconds.
I was flabbergasted.
We finally made it to Savannah, and what earlier was a full bus loaded with kids, was a now empty. The teacher decided to remind us of the rules again.
"Alright, everyone don't go too far out, make sure to be back here at five, and if anything happens call us immediately! When everyone is back..."
I zoned out, looking at the intriguing surroundings.
Our group then had to decide what to do. We agreed on food first, then we went on a horse-driven tour in a carriage, which was interesting. We then looked at monuments, a cool place with lamps, and we got face paint.I tried to tell Aiden stop from stealing coins from a fountain, but it was of no use. By then we only had about 40 minutes left. I jumped when the voice of someone from a few feet away.
"Excuse me! Would you be interested in a tour of the Sorrel Weed House? A group cancelled their tour last minute and now we have some empty spots if you guys are interested? It's only five dollars a person."
Taylor immediately smiled and replied before any of us could react. "Wait really?! This place is supposed to be really haunted! We gotta go!"
Might as well use the rest of the 30 minutes we got. The others quickly agreed."Then right this way!"We followed the woman inside the house.
Unaware of the troubles we would later run into.
