100 Little Deaths ➾ [Z.B]

4: Where Would You Go?

(IYKYK)

The football game ended and the result is their team took the win so luckily no TVs or bottles have been broken out of rage tonight. After the game the time ended up being 9 pm and neither Zak and Leah nor Billy and Jay were ready to head home so they stuck around for the second round of fudge and beers and they just talked, laughed, and had a great time.

Their conversation ended up turning into a dream location to investigate (if they haven't gone already), and the crew had their answers and they all knew them but they did not know about Leah's dream investigation.

Leaning back on Aaron's couch Zak had his arm wrapped around his girlfriend who was leaning on him for warmth. "So that leads me to ask Leah if you could spend one whole night at any haunted place in the world, where would you go?"

Leah hummed and looked up while she thought of a good answer. "You know where would be a cool place to go? Alcatraz Island."

    The guys around her hummed, impressed with her answer. She couldn't be happier with their intrigued response. "Alright, good answer," Zak looks away from his friends and back to her. "Why Alcatraz Island?"

    "Because I want to see the demon in cell 14-D" she replies casually and all the guys raise an eyebrow, have they not heard this story before? "You haven't heard of the urban legend?"

    "No." Zak says calmly and shakes his head slowly "Tell us" and with his response, his friends all lean forward to listen to her story.

    Did they not know this story? It's very known to the world, Leah thought to herself, what kind of paranormal investigators are they? (with all love of course!) Leah shrugged her shoulders and leaned back in her boyfriend's arms, she took a drink of her beer and sighs. "Alright, I'll tell you." She says grinning "So in Alcatraz there is a block called D-Block, and on that block, there is a cell where all the bad boys of Alcatraz are held, I'm talking about the monsters. And that cell is 14-D. Now, I researched this and there is a report that when a prisoner was locked up in that cell for a short time he was heard screaming, screaming at the top of his lungs, screaming for a straight seven hours."

    "Yikes," Aaron says quietly as a reaction

    "Yeah," Leah agreed "For the entire seven hours he was screaming that somebody was in the cell with him and he had big red eyes."

    "Dude...I got chills" Aaron reaches both his hands on both his shoulders

    "So he saw another person but with big red eyes?" Zak asked

    "So he says." Leah responds in a tone equivalent to saying 'It was neither confirmed nor denied' It was just an urban legend after all! "The prisoner is screaming that this black shadowy figure with bright reds and he's standing in the corner staring at him and nobody came to check on him, they didn't even come by to shut him up. They let him scream nonstop for seven full hours. So here's the kicker–"

    The guys leaned in closer, ready for the kicker, "go on" Zak says, he needed to know what happened next.

    "Seven hours later when he finally shut up, the guards came by his cell to see what the problem was. And when they got his cell–"

    "He was dead" Billy guessed

    Leah nods "oh yeah"

    "What happened to him?" Aaron asked

    Leah found this moment so cute and funny, seeing Zak, Aaron, Billy, and Jay so focused on her while she told this urban legend like children are listening to a bedtime story and them being so invested (so invested that they keep interrupting her with questions and comments about the legend) and having to hear everything. A priceless moment for her for sure.
