The Room That Kills

Chapter 4 - Intruders 1

Narrator's POV

Maria slowly opened her eyes and noticed she had fell asleep on Michael. She stared at him sleeping soundlessly and composedly. His long lashes civilly resting on his bottom lid. His lips arranged in a peaceful smile as always. His curly hair laying on his dainty cheeks. She stared at him tacidly smiling.

Her hands were suddenly pulled into Michael's embrace. She stared stunned not knowing what just happened. The next thing she knew she was laid back but in Michael's arms.

"Why are you staring at me like that?" He questioned his eyes still closed.

"Uh... I.." She muttered shocked.

"Stay like this for awhile" He said hugging her more tighter yet gentle.

"I need to.."

"Shh" He placed his hands onto her lips hushing her.

Maria nodded her head unknowingly. They both laid there silently in a brief moment.

"Lily!! Come help me with the berries" Maria called out one of the little ghost girl. They've been long lasting friends.

"Coming, Maria" Lily giggled running with a empty basket in her hands.

She catched up to Maria as they both walked around the conjuring forest picking natural berries.

"Maria, did you know these were my favorite berries?" Lily laughed picking more into her basket.

"Of course, raspberries? We always use to pick them together. I'll never forget those days sweetie" Maria smiled friendly.

"Go, and tell him to come back! If you can't do this mission, then you're fired!" Tommy shouted at Derek.

"Yes sir!" Derek nodded his head as he ran out the room.

Derek was one of Tommy's workers.

He leaped into his jeep and drove off to the forest, Michael was in.

Damn you, Michael!

He thought as he banged on the steering wheel.

Few hours later he finally arrived at the forest. He turned off the engine and rolled out of his jeep.

I'm comin' for you Mike

He smirked walking in the deserted forest. Atleast he thought it was deserted. He roamed around trying to find Michael's house.

That's when he heard a ruffle in the bushes.

"Who's there?" He shouted turning around.

There was no trace of a human being. He looked around his surroundings and there was nothing or rather no one. He heard another ruffle and it kept going, he turned around in circles but didn't see anyone.

"Michael? Don't play games with me" He said sternly.

The ruffles in the trees didn't stop, instead it kept going on and on.
