*Imani's POV*

My stomach is turning because we actually got the door open. It's like going through one of those fake haunted houses, but this wasn't fake. It was real and I was just as scared. I held on tight to Justin's arm, I felt more safe that way. We all turned on our flashlights. And started looking around, to find that we're in the basement of the asylum.

Ileana had a worried look on her face.

"Ileana what's wrong?" I asked her.

"W-we shouldn't be here." She said.

"Don't worry about it." Chaz says, "You can stick with me. You can be the ice cream and I'll be the nuts on top. We can be like nutty buddies." Chaz added and we all chuckled at his stupidity on trying to hit on Ileana.

"No, you don't understand. I already feel it. This place isn't right." She said.

I sucked in my lips, and held on to Justin tighter, trying my best not to flip out. Because a part of me knows that she is right. But and even bigger part of me wants to go in and see what this asylum is really all about.

"Anybody trip over a grave marker on the way up here?" Fredo asked. Everyone shot him daggers.

"What grave markers, I didn't see any graves?" Selena said. I gulped.

"They didn't always use them." Fredo said.

"It's all about downsizing." Chaz says trying to make a light of it.

"People who were patients and died here, people whose families didn't claim them because they were too ashamed to have a relative in a mental institution, were buried nameless. Just a number in the dirt. And now it's all over grown. I bet you didn't even notice." Fredo said.

"I did." I spoke up. "There were signs about it when we came out if the woods." I said.

"That can't be true." Selena said.

"It can be & it is." Ileana said "No wonder why this place feels so haunted."

This place was a shitty mess. The windows were all boarded up, file folders and papers dumped all over the floor & old medical equipment. Like bed trays, & stretchers. Everyone starts looking at different things, Ileana grabs a folder & starts looking through them grabbing more, for later looking.

"Could it be any colder?" Selena asked, rambling about how cold her legs are.

"Maybe next time you break into an asylum in the middle of winter, you should go for pants." Justin said.

"Well maybe I had a reason to wear a skirt." Justin says. "But there will definetly not be another time." She added.

But it was very cold, and Chaz was even taking advantage of that. He pretends to smoke an invisible cigarette, and make the cold air puff out of his mouth as if its actual smoke. We all laugh.

"That reminds me! I got the dope." Ryan said holding out a bag of weed.

"Holy shit, man! That's a full bag. How the hell did you get this?!" Justin said. I looked at him with disbelief. He smiled, cheekily and kissed my forehead. I shook my head.

"Do you think it's extra cold because of the ghosts?" Selena asked. "I saw this documentary once where a ghost hunter guys said that paranormal activity makes places really cold."

"Well, duh." Ileana said, still looking through files. "I mean we are in a basement. Ghosts are notorious for haunting damp, & dark places."

"Ooh! Look what I found." Priscilla changed the subject. "Maps!" She held up the papers and & handed each and every one to us.

"We have to go through this door." Ryan said. "It's the only door out of this basement." We nodded and followed Ryan to the door.

A Second later we heard a knock at the basement door. The same one we were headed for.

"What the hell was that?" I blurted out. Ryan places his finger on his lips signaling us to shush. As he moved closer to the door and placed his ear along it. He jumped back. Scared.

"What was it Ryan?!" I panicked.

"It was j-just the heat duct." He said.

"That was no heat duct," Fredo says all defensive. "Someone was knocking."

"Plus the heat isn't even on, this pace is vacant, remember? Why would we even be cold?" Ileana chimes in.

"Right." Chaz says. "No ones here.

"Just ghosts... Lots and lots of ghosts." Fredo says.

Ileana stuffs more files in her coat. I wonder what she's gonna do with them...


*Justin's POV*


"There's nothing here." I insist for Imani's sake. "Look I'll show you." I say and me and Imani head up front & I pull the door open, the hinges creaking a little, I cast the flashlight down the tunnel. It's dark and narrow with sides if arches the span the entire way. The walls are made of bricks, all painted over with multiple signs of graffiti.

"See?" I say, "It's vacant." Fredo points the camera towards my face then the tunnel leading all the at down.

"EW, this is so gross." Selena says, peering down the tunnel.

Fredo points the camera towards Ileana's worried face. "Are you okay?" Chaz asks her. She shakes her head.

"I really think we should leave. This place doesn't feel right. It doesn't want us here." I said.

"And how do you know?" Priscilla asks.

"Trust me, I want to go back." Ileana said.

"Not funny." I say, feeling a chill pass over my shoulder.

"I'm not joking. Can you take me home?" She asked.

"Now?" I ask.

"We can't go back now, we're here. We got in." Selena argues.

"It doesn't feel right." Ileana snaps. I feel Imani's hand grips mine tight. I can tell her heart rate was exceeding by the second.

"We could drop her off and come back." Fredo suggested.

"Or, I could just drop her off . . ." Chaz said, snakes his arm around Ileana.

"If we leave, I refuse to come back." Selena said. Ileana sighs. "Get a grip." She says approaching Ileana. "Think if how much stronger you'll be as a result of this." Selena says.

"You don't understand." Ileana argues. "This isn't my kind of thing. My parents think I'm at a sleep over."

"Oh and what this is my type of thing? Or any of us, for that matter? You're not the only one who's scared, you know." Selena adds.

"You can stay close to me." Chaz whispers to Ileana.

"She'd be safer on a shock treatment table." Selena says, grabbing Ileana's arm as did Chaz on her other as if she was a wish bone of something. Fredo angled the camera to zoom on Ileana's face, adjusting the shot gun mic so it's able to pick everything up.

She looks at him and says "Please?" He lets out a sigh and lowers the camera.

"Are you serious?" He asks her, and she nods.

"If she goes I go." Selena says, pulling a cobweb off her shoulder. "I mean this is down right stupid. What kind of a cast member just walks out on their director with barely an hour of a shoot." Selena says.

"Please, this place is going to be torn a part in a few days. I need you guys. We need you guys right now." Fredo said.

"I'm not going any where." Ryan says.

"Same." I say.

"I'll stay with you Justin." Imani said wrapping her arms around my neck. I placed my hand on her waist and moved them down to her ass, smirking before I kissed her.

"This is our only chance." Fredo says, "We'll be known for something, get money, all of us will leave this hell hole of a school and fucking move to Hawaii or something." Fredo added. He looks at the rest of the people. Chaz, Ileana, Selena, & Priscilla. He breathed out.

"Forget it." He said going, grabbing his camera, and going to pack of away, but Ileana approaches him.
She nudges his hand away from the off switch.

"Leave it on." Ileana says, finally. "I'll stay." She added.

"Are you sure?" He asks her. You can tell she wasn't but her face full of fear.

"I'm sure." She says, not sounding like it at all, but she moves through the tunnel anyway...


I grab onto Imani's hand as we all continued to walk through the tunnel. . .
