String of Time

I wrote this whole story in one night and I really hope it is good enough to be fear gripping.

Well enjoy!

"Come on Sam! It's Halloween night! We're supposed to party and have fun." Vicky says to her friend while trembling in excitement.

Sam looks at the huge bright lit up house that seems to be the party house in the city tonight. It seems as though some rich man is hosting everyone tonight, the exterior just screams class with the giant fountain that looks like a porcelain ring floating on top with numerous thin streams of water running in spirals around each other and light making the water shine in multicolor. The house is a beauty itself with large stained glass windows covering the

The house is a beauty in itself, with large stained glass windows covering the whole front of the house, with exception to the few stone walls running between the windows and the huge redwood door which has fog class in it as well as strips on its side. There is orange light and Halloween decorations everywhere, to jump start the holiday spirit within everyone. Well it sure looks like it did.

Sam loves the look of happiness on everyone's face but somehow, something does not seem right no matter how hard she tries to deny it. Still unsure of whether it's ok, Sam looks at her friends and shakes her head, unable to bare taking away their happiness. "Ok fine, let's go in." Sam says, "But only for a little bit." She adds in.

"You're the best Sam! Let's go!" Taylor cheers giving Sam a quick hug, she is one of her best friends.

There are a total of five of them who all had decided on Halloween night to hang out together. There is Vicky, the party girl in their group who must go to any party she crosses paths with. Then there is Taylor, the semi-party girl who likes parties but isn't as crazy as Vicky. Third is Anna, she is smart and knows her surrounds very well and when she says something, it must be true. Next is Mary, who is afraid of anything and everything. And finally there is Sam, the one who is constantly glancing at the time and always ends up making the wrong decisions.

All five best friends laugh together and take gradual steps up to the main door. Their excitement increases with the buzz in the air.

As soon as they reach the porch leading to the door, a man dressed as a butler in in a long black suit greets them with a nod of his head.

"Please come in, it is wonderful to have some teenagers like you join our party." The butler says in a monotone voice as he ushers us in. "Follow me."

The group follows him into the grand interior. It is much more spectacular than the outside. There is a majestic spiral staircase to the right, with a large open lounge-like area to the left and a bar and kitchen following behind it. The floor is just as expensively made using designer Italian tiles.

The place is full of life, with people chatting and dancing around, the music blasting in the background. It appears to be the perfect party. The only question left hanging in the air, where are all the kids?

The neighborhood is full of teens their age but not one kid is spotted amongst the throng of adults.

The butler leads them to the bar and offers them a drink, to which they each just take a punch, typical party drink, and continue following the butler. Sam, the ever so cautious one, cannot help but think something is amiss with the butler. Why is he only taking them around the mansion?

Sam nudges Anna and whispers in her ear, "Why is the butler only hosting us? There are other people here too. Why are we even following the butler?"
