24 Hours

Chapter 8: Possessed

This was the end or was it? Obviously not.

"Gabrielle." The familiar sound of Elliot's voice whispered.

I moved away from him cautiously, I didn't know if I should trust him?

"What's wrong? What happened?" He was confused by the clear look of terror on my face.

He took a step towards me, "Don't come near me." I whimpered.

"Why? What'd I do?" He asked, slowly backing away.

"You don't remember?" I didn't want to tell him that he had just tried to kill me, but I guess a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do.

"Not a thing, I remember looking through boxes and nothing else." He looked at me for the story of what happened.

"Y-you were possessed or something, a-and you tried to kill me." I sobbed, glancing over to where it all happened, now there was just the pen knife, laying lifelessly on the ground.

"Really?" He didn't make eye contact with me, "How could I be so stupid? I didn't mean it honestly." He punched the wall making me flinch.

"It wasn't your fault." I looked down.

"I'm so, so sorry Gabrielle." He said in a soft voice, it was his voice this time, "I would never hurt you, you've got to believe me." He looked at me with sorrowful eyes.

I stepped closer to him and hugged him tightly, he instantly hugged back, I knew he meant what he said, I trusted him.

After a short while I whispered into his ear, "I found the map."

He looked at me smiling, "Thats great."

I rested my head on his chest, it felt so right, I wish we could stay like this forever but all we would ever be was friends.

Meanwhile downstairs Logan and Kylie ended up in what once used to be a kitchen. They were looking through some draws when suddenly the door slams shut and the lock clicks shut.

Logan tries to open it, "Come on muscles, don't fail me now." But the door wouldn't budge.

Kylie sat on the kitchen table watching Logan struggle, "Logan, what's happening?"

"I don't know babe, probably just rusty locks, I'll get it open." Logan tried comforting her.

Then the cutlery draws flew open and all of the knives and forks started floating around, they darted in every direction. This was paranormal at its finest.

"Babe get under the table." Logan slid under the table followed by Kylie.

Logan wrapped his arms around Kylie making sure she was safe, there were knives flying directly above the table.

"Kylie if we don't live through this, I'll always love you no matter what." Logan announced making Kylie blush.

"I love you more Logan." Kylie leant in and kissed Logan passionately.

Suddenly the table rose high into the air, exposing Logan and Kylie to the dangerous objects flying about. The table crashed into the window causing the glass to shatter everywhere.
