I awoke from my extremely uncomfortable bed as I got up to see Shelby drawing something. I walked over to see what it was.

I used to have drums and shelby used to have a guitar. But that was all taken away after our parents decided it would be cool to commit suicide. Our parents were friends so they died together. Now we're in basically hell. That's when I was awoken by footsteps. I jumped up and shelby did too not long after. The door know turned slowly as it opened to reveal ...... TO BE CONTINUED!
