The House On The End Of The Street

f o u r

-Reign and Mal-

The two started searching around. On the top floor, there was a master's bedroom, a bathroom, a children's bedroom. One of the rooms led to a veranda.

"Let's start in the master's bedroom" Mal took lead.

They entered the master's bedroom. Before they entered, there was a lady. She was old, she had long hair. She was also scratching the wall.

Scratch. Scratch. Scratch.

Her hair covered her face. She was wearing white too. Mal and Reign did not move any closer. They knew they were entering somewhere dangerous.

The old woman suddenly turned around and ran straight towards them. The two freaked out, so they closed the door as fast as they can. Then, they heard Bang!

"She must have hit her head on the door." Mal said.

They both slowly opened the door. The lady was gone. She was no where to be seen. It was like she was never there at all.

"It starts getting real." Reign announced.

The two made their way near the wall where the woman was at. There were scratch marks that formed words. It read:
Turn back now, you die
You must look at what lies
Underneath the house
It has secrets as little as a mouse

"This house is really filled with secrets. If we could only find out the secrets it hold, we can soon be free." Mal said. After she said those words, she had a breakdown. She cried. "I wish we never went here. Now, we can never get out."

"Mal, hey, look at me. It will be alright. I promise. Right now, we can't give up." Reign comforted her. He hugged her.

"It seems impossible to go back home!"

"Trust me, Mal. Everything will be fine. We will soon go home and everything will be back to normal. Remember Mal, nothing is impossible." Reign replied. He knew that if they kept on going on, everything will be ok. He too was losing it. But, he kept himself together. It was hard for him too.

"Thanks, Reign. I need to keep myself together." Mal had the sense of bravery in her eyes. She could continue doing this. "Come on, let's keep on exploring.

Mal searched the bedside table while Reign searched the work table.

Inside the drawers of the bedside table was pens and pencils, a few cd's that date back to the 80's, some old coins, and a used tissue. Mal almost by-passed the drawer until she saw one cd. She noticed that it was not a movie. It was more like a home video of some sort. She took it and put it in her bag. Maybe if she saw a video player, she could watch it.

"How you doing, Reign? Found anything yet?" Mal asked.

"Nope. Still checking."

Reign was checking all the drawers in the work table. The table was made of dark oak wood. It had beautiful carvings on it too. On top, was a few books. The books were all about psychology. Inside the drawers were more used tissue, a blank notebook, and a locket.

Reign was curious to see what was inside the locket so he slowy opened. Inside was 2 pictures. One was the woman that they had seen. She was wearing the exact same thing as they saw. The other photo was the man from the family photo downstairs.

"I found something, it's the owners I think."

"Let me see!" Mal said.

Then all of a sudden, a woman was at the door. It was the lady again.
