"We shall continue our tour of Grayson Manor with the basement." The group stands with blatant looks of confusion on their faces. "Why would we go to the basement?" Jacob says. "Well, we're supposed to be touring the mansion aren't we? The basement is a part of the mansion, so let's go." Says Morehead. After a small discussion they once again begin to tour the mansion. As they're walking, Jason starts grabbing his ears like someone was screaming into them. "What's that scratching noise? It's driving me insane!" Jason yells as he falls to the ground. The group immediately surrounds him to try to figure out what was wrong. In an effort to help Jason, the group doesn't notice a dark shadow making its way towards them. Jessica finally noticed and stands paralyzed with fear. She attempts to speak, but nothing comes out. In one swift movement the shadow rips Jessica away from them. She finally lets out a scream and gets the attention of the group. They all turn to her and see Jessica's body being dragged down the dark hall. In the midst of Jessica being dragged away, Jacob notices Jason stopped screaming. All of a sudden, Jason lets loose of his ears, and stands. It was almost as if nothing had happened, he seemed completely normal. Everyone stares at Jason, unable to believe what they just witnessed. "What's going on guys? Where's Jessica?" Says Jason with a look of puzzlement. "Do you have any clue what just happened?" Says Jacob. "No, not a clue." Jacob angrily says "first of all you just started freaking out and grabbing your ears because of some scratching noise you heard. Then, Jessica just got dragged down the hall by some shadow thing, we don't know what's happening." Jacob went from a look of anger to a look of fear after finally realizing what he just witnessed. "I think the best thing to do is to return to the library and just wait there." Says Morehead. The group agreed and heads back to the library. Jason doesn't believe what they're telling him at all, "y'all are just trying to mess with me" he says to Jacob. Morehead approaches Jason with a look of sadness and fear and says "I wish we were Jason, but the truth is, we just lost Jessica." Jason begins to shake his head in an angrily manner. As he looks around he sees a person in the back of the room. "It's Jessica you guys!" As everybody turns and looks, they can't believe their eyes. "Oh my god, it really is Jessica!" Jacob says as he approaches her. Once the group gets close to Jessica, she starts to run. By now everyone is running after her, but they can't seem to catch up. She leads them to a staircase that leads to the roof. When they finally reach the roof, Jessica vanishes. "What the hell is going on?" Says Jacob as he's gasping for breath. The whole group stands still, shocked at what they've seen. Or at least what they thought they've seen. As Lauren struggles to catch her breath, she asks the group, "what was that? Where did she go?" Mr. Morehead stands up and says "I don't know, but whoever, or whatever that was.....it wasn't Jessica."
