The Haunting

Caught

Caught

As I sat there on Abby's bed trying to get my heart beat to go back down I looked at my camera. I think I got it all. I looked over at the door to the tunnel. I heard someone walking outside the room. I jumped off the bed and went under it. They must be in the other room. I really hated it here but I had to find out the crap going on and solve it. As I got up from under the bed I saw someone standing in the door. "What are you doing in here?" Bernie said. I jumped back. My heart beat went up again. I know I was in it. "Oh sorry I was just bored." I said. "What? You can't go in other people's rooms like this" he said in a stern voice. "I am sorry. But no one is here." I said. "Get out!" He said. I grabbed my backpack and left. Before I finished down the hall I looked back to him. He was looking in the room. Like he was looking for someone. Maybe someone else. Then he shut the door.
I went back to my room and saw nana was up. "Where where you?" She said. How many lies do I have to make??! "Um... In the bathroom" I said. "Really? Because I looked there" she said. "Why do you have that backpack on you? Whats in it?" She said. I forgot about having it. My legs went numb. 'Please don't go in it' I thought. "It has my iPad and stuff " I said standing in the doorway. She looked at me before letting it go. "We'll you don't need to be wondering around." She said and pulled out a book to read. I sighed and slid the backpack under the bed again.
I would have to see what I got when the moment is right but that will not be now. I sat next to her. "I am sorry.. I was just curious" I said. She glared at me. "I know honey. This place is boring. But go take a shower or something" and she went back to reading. And to be honest, a shower sounded good. I went to the bathroom bringing clothes in with me and undressed and got in. When I was washing my hair and went under the water and came back out I opened my eyes at a face looking in the window. It was not a person though. It was something else. I jumped down and pulled the curtain over the window shut. I took the rest of the shower with my eyes wide open even though getting soap in them burned like fire.
When I was done and dressed I walked back in our room. "I am going to take one too. Don't go anywhere" nana said walking back in the bathroom. I listened for the door to lock and I ran over to my bag. I took out the camera and watched the footage. I was right. There was rat bones. There was an office. And I barely, and I mean just barely got the black figure I saw. But the auto did get the screaming sound it made. Only it was too loud that it was more of a popping sound. My spine shivered at listening to it. I looked at the camera in our room. Nothing but me.

I heard the shower stop and I hurried up and put everything but my iPad under the bed. I needed to defiantly write some notes. The door opened and nana came with a towel around her hair. Nothing else. "Nana why don't you get dressed in the bathroom instead of walking naked all the way in here?" I said looking away from her. "We'll the bathroom is right here" she said pointing. She had a point. Every room had its own private bathroom. Even though the papers I got in the tunnel said there was only 3 in the house. I was pretty sure a bathroom of some kind was in each room. I kept my eyes on my screen as I typed. 'Bernie knows about me. And...Something evil is here' I Typed. I really didn't like that last part.
