*Previously*
Ella walked upstairs and stared at the object as it shone in the sunlight coming through her bedroom window but suddenly she heard a voice but not just any voice, it was very familiar, the voice said,"Ella, You must..."
***************
Ella put the object back in her wooden box and locked it shut, she laid down on her bed thinking of the same one question,Why can't I have a normal life like everyone else? Then suddenly her brother walked into her room. "Haven't you heard of knocking?" Ella said squinting angrily at him. "Look, Ella, Why are you in your room all the time? For the past two days you have been coming out of your room less and less! What's wrong?" Daniel explained as he sat on the bed next to Ella.

Ella moved away from him slightly and said, "Nothing..." Daniel glared at her and replied,"It's obviously not "Nothing" Ella, Tell me" Ella looked down and lied,"I'm just sad that's all..." Daniel looked at her and explained, "Well, you should go downstairs because I don't think you want to be lonely all the time, do you?" Ella looked at the floor and sighed,"Ok..."

Ella and Daniel went downstairs and they both sat on the red settee watching a documentary when Ella said, "Eh...I gotta go and check something..." Daniel turned to Ella and mumbled, "Okay..." Ella ran up the stairs as fast as her legs can go and she threw herself on the bed and started hyperventilating. Ella tried to calm herself down but she couldn't but suddenly she heard creaking and footsteps. She stopped hyperventilating but she felt terror rush through her body from her head to her toes, she called out,"Shh..." And suddenly she felt someone grab her hand and take her into the closet.

She smelt the same horrible, rancid breath so she assumed it was the guy in the closet. "Where are you taking me now?!" Shouted Ella as she tried to let her hand go free. The figure gripped her hand tighter so she couldn't wriggle away. "Where does it look like I'm going?" He retorted back as he came up for the cabin. "W..Why are you taking me back here again?" Ella asked trying to get him to let go of her hand. "Look, I need to tell you something about Daniel..." He replied picking at his huge, dirty fingernails. Ella muttered, "What..." He came closer to Ella and explained,"I... seen him with his friend, I don't know who but he said to him that he will kill someone tonight..." Ella felt tears forming in her eyes but held her tears back. "Who will be kill...?" Ella whispered sadly. "I...don't know" He responded looking at the ground."S...So my brother will either kill a random person or someone I love?" Ella cried. "Y...Yeah" He muttered.
