After I fumbled with the lock on the door It jarred open and I fell in. There were bullet holes on the wall which connected to spell ¨we had a deal.¨
I didn't like where this was going, it made me feel like I was in a horror movie, waiting for the mystery murderer to pop up and kill me. But that never happened. All i could hear was the drops of water and the rattling of chains in the distance. I couldn't remember ever making a deal. I mean come on me? Making a deal, it made me laugh. I decided to keep on going with my so called " adventure into darkness."
I just kept walking from room to room, looking for anyone who survived the fire. Nothing at all, all I knew was whatever was rattling those's chains was getting closer. I walked down what was left of the damaged hallway looking for remains. Wires hung out of the ceiling and walls were fallen on the floor. I was careful not to step on the nails that were ready to poke into my foot and give me some disgusting infection. The rattling noise was beginning to move faster and faster it was coming closer and closer. I began to panic and started to run down the hallway not caring if I stepped on a nail. It was better then seeing the ugly thing making the noises face to face. I ran until i couldn't anymore i had reached the end of the hall. The shattered windows allowed the wind to blow through adding a feeling that would send chills up your back. All i could do is sit and wait for whatever god awful thing was lurking in this place to finally get me. But for some reason in my gut I knew i wasn't going out without a fight. I don't know why i thought this because the best thing i could find was a fork. Because that's going to help so much. Suddenly the wind which was blowing on my neck had stopped and then. I felt someone somethings warm breath on my neck. I turned around to briskly fight back but before I could i got whisked out of the window and found myself falling from the 12th story. I don't know if i was just lucky or god was by my side but a wire wrapped around my ankle and pulled me to a halt. I found myself stuck dangling from the air waiting for someone to save me or for this stupid wire to break so i could fall and hopefully live. But no I was stuck there for the night, around sunrise i fell asleep but was brutally awoken by the sounds of men yelling at me, And the blaring of sirens. They screamed " Ready 1, 2, 3 go!"
The wire snapped and i fell to the trampoline that was waiting for me at the bottom. They didn't even check if I was okay, they just loaded me up into the firetruck and drove away as quick as possible.
I asked " where are we going isn't it safe here?"
"Were heading south to where were actually safe from this fire."
I looked in the rear view mirror and saw what the " horrible creature"
Was. It turned out to be my best friend. I remembered the deal I made, If the fire spread we would try to save everyone but instead he saw me only save myself. He became angry and wanted revenge but it didn't quite work for him as he was stuck. Waiting for the place we called home be turned into ashes.
