Rummaging through the drawers for a flashlight,i move my fingers along the interior of the ends,touching and pulling the things i felt and pulled something that feels like a torchlight but in reality a doll.A slim girl doll,wearing a sparkling blue dress and its hair tied into a ponytail.I put it back in and continued searching.

"Chanyeol ah,can you help me find a torchlight?"

He looks lethargic and gave me a straight no."But the night is still young!Lets go to the other staircase that leads to the 2nd level.I reeeally wanna see how messy it is!" I smiled cheekily,hoping he would agree.After a moment of begging,he finally sighed and nodded okay.I jumped in bliss and quickly exit the room.

Passing by rooms 6800 and 9977 made me knock on their doors and scurry away quickly.Chanyeol had to run so as to not be blamed for making the noise.I peeped at the corridor as soon as i reached the stairs,hoping they would open their door but nothing happened.

"They're asleep already?Awww they're no fun...."

Chanyeol shook his head in annoyance."Lets go already...."

"Alright,alright,i got it...sheesh..." I led the way down,all the way to the dining table.Oh?There's a candle here on the table!How lucky! I grab it almost immediately and used it to brighten the way.

The kitchen's cupboard door was open and spider webs are seen.A doll was standing there,smiling.It was wearing a cowboy suit and holding a whip.Its eyes are big,almost as if staring at us.A shiver ran down my spine and i quickly went to the other side of the kitchen.

The stairs was in sight when we came out of the kitchen.Chanyeol stood unmoving,saying he won't follow me up.I tried using aegyo several times before succeeding in persuading him.

Step by step,we reached the second floor.The corridor looks exactly the same as the third floor,only darker with fewer lightings.Upon reaching the first door of the long corridor,i turned the doorknob open and tried pushing the door but its somehow being pushed back,like someone's stopping me from entering so i let it go and went down the corridor.

"Baekhyun,we're sleeping after this right?"

"Yeaaaaah just let me explore a bit more~"

"Only one more door and its over"

"But....."

"No buts or i'll leave you behind"

"....."

I really wanted to know more of whats inside the rooms...so i acted as if i heeded his instruction and opened the door near the intersection.Upon opening,i saw a lot of doll parts scattered on the floor.Its arms,hands,legs and clothes are just lying on the floor.Some are broken and some are melted.

"We're done right? Lets go."

He exit the door and i follow suit but when he went down the stairs,i stopped abruptly and went to the first door we tried to enter.

---------------------61-----------------------

Yawning several times while climbing down the flight of stairs,i walked straight forward,with my eyes nearly shut.I reached the kitchen and walked pass it,all the way to the staircase that leads to the third floor.

"Yah,go in front and lead the way now.Im tired of leading....." I said that but he never responded so i turned around and i got a shock realizing he's not behind me."Where did he go?Did i walk too fast?" As i wonder,i decided to walk back towards the dining table to check if he decided to rest there.

Having reach the intersection to get to the dining table,i suddenly forgot which direction i was supposed to take to get me there so i stood frozen,trying to remember.A minute passed and i decided to go left.It seems i picked the correct path as i saw a long table with no one there.

"He's not here? Then where is he? Should i wait him here or in our room? The way he is,i think he'll scream if he actually saw ghosts or whatsoever so i guess its easier if i stay here and wait for him.Yes.Easier to hear him scream.. i think..."

I pulled a chair and sat on it.Resting my head on the table,i hummed to 'growl' and closed my eyes,falling asleep,opening it after a few minutes.He's still not here so i decided to get up but i feel something around me.Ropes? I looked down at my hands and they were tied up together.

Eh? I also got tied up to the chair pretty tightly and i can't even move.I panicked and shifted my gaze on the table after hearing giggling sounds.

Its....the doll we previously saw...The one wearing a cowboy suit.Holding the whip on his left and a gun on his right,i sense something strange happening.H-how did it get here?Isn't it suppose to be in the kitchen's cupboard?

"Y-you...What are you?What are you going to do to me?" All it did was giggle more.A shiver ran down my spine and i heard the loading of a gun.No way he's gonna shoot me,right? I called out to Baekhyun,hoping he would come and set me free but he never came.

It released its gun and shot me thrice.One at my arm,another at my neck and the last at my head at point blanc.It doesn't hurt much but when i see the mark on my arm,i realised it was a tranquiliser.Shit,my eyes are drooping.Drowsiness took over me and i couldn't control it.The giggling of the doll was the last thing i heard.

---------------------4------------------------

"I hope Chanyeol doesn't hate me or anything...."

I stood in front of the door and tried to open it again.The doorknob turned but i still can't enter.This is so strange.I tried several more times and could'nt take it anymore

Using my strength,i kicked the door open.Yes,success at last,but what greeted me was shocking.Xiumin hyung was sitting on a chair,all tied up and his head was hanging low.

"Hyung?Xiumin hyung is that really you?" I went closer and stopped in front of him."hyung?" He didn't move but replied."Why are you here Baekhyun? Why did you come? After i tried so hard to stop you from entering...Now you won't be able to escape...."

Whats wrong with him?He's acting weirdly.I lifted his face up and what i saw made me scream.His eyes...they're not there...in his eye sockets...they're completely empty.

I stepped back and realised i'm surrounded by dolls.Even the door was blocked.I frantically tried to reach the door but they kept attacking and hindering my way.I got tangled and fell on my face.Blood trickled down and i'm in pain.Too many dolls.I couldn't fight back....
