THE BASEMENT

Kenzie Blake

January 8th, 2016. My name is Kenzie Blake and I was a normal kid. Again WAS a normal kid. But that was before Jaden died, along with the rest of the people I lov- nevermind. But this is how it all started.

It was monday morning. Mom asked me to go grab some peaches from the basement. I told her that I didnt want to because the basement creeps me out but she said that she didnt want any arguments. So I grabbed a key and headed down to the basement. I unlocked the door and flicked on the light. That single light that barely lit anything. I was headed over to grab the peaches, when I tripped. I flew forward and hit the wall. But instead of the normal "thud" it sounded hollow. But I didnt want to investigate any further because I was alone. So I grabbed the peaches and ran back up to the house. I gave them to mom and grabbed my phone. I texted my friends: Jakson Monroe and his girlfriend,Arianna Jhonson, as well as my boyfriend Aiden Drake. They all came over and we all headed down to the basement. We grabbed hammers and each started banging on the wall. Each hit made rubble fall from the ceiling. Finally we broke through. I stepped through the new doorway and turned on my flashlight. The others followed suit. I found a light switch an tried it. To my surprise it worked. So I looked around. I saw a few boxes, some bricks, and old water heater, and a few other things. But at my feet was a doll. An adorable, old fashioned, porcelyn doll. It was beautiful, so I took it. I was busy brushing off the dirt when Arianna screamed. Not a petty scream, not like the squeal you make when you see a spider, but a bloodcurdling scream, a scream that chill you to the bone. We turned around and she was pointing to something hanging from the rafters. It was a rope. But at the end of the rope. Was a dress. But with something inside. A little girls skeleton.
