Rituals at the town hall

Chapter five: New home? yea no.

Javiers pov:

The earth started to shake. I saw Ava's tears roll down her face. All of a sudden there was a grey brick wall. Somewhat like a castle. Oh no.

"A-ava..." She looked at me with her face filled with anxiety and depression. I hugged her and she hugged me back. I heard more rumbles. I ignored them and continued to hug Ava. I let the hug go by both of us looking up seeing no dark around. She wiped her face with her sweater. "Ugh... S-sorry you h-had to see that." "Its fine ava." We look in the distance seeing a castle and the sky turning into a sunset. "I guess we should sleep in the castle..." "Yea... I guess. I mean where else are we gonna sleep."
I heard her chuckle. We started walking and Ava was texting katelyn. "What did she say?" "She said that she's ok and anti didn't do anything yet. Well thank god they're ok." "Yea at least." We stopped at the castle door and knocked on it. Then the door suddenly opened leaving a loud creak. "Wow this is place is old" We walked inside and the door suddenly shut and both of us fliched. "GOD HOLY CRAP." Ava jumped. Candles lit up the place with no one lighting them up. There was two staircases in the middle of the house. There was a doorway on one side of this room and one on the otherside.

"Hello ava and javier." Ava's face turned mad. I looked up and saw dark on the staircases. "There's food in the kitchen for dinner. I made steak." Me and Ava went to the kitchen. We saw the steak sizzling because of the grease. Dark appeared in the kitchen with a knife and fork. He cut the steak into slices and puts it on plates then handed it to us. We started to eat with silence filling the room. Just us eating. "How was school?" Ok...  "School was fine..." Then she muttered "until you showed up ugly"
Me and Ava were trying to hold in our laugh. "What's so funny?" Dark said. "Nothing." Both of us said. We looked at eachother with smiling trying not to laugh faces. And were probably gonna be dead. "When you're done eating I'm gonna show you the house tour."

After when we ate all of our food dark showed us the house. We went upstairs first. "These are the bedrooms" there was two bedrooms up here. Then we felt a push on our backs into the bedroom. "Goodnight children" ok then.

Ava pov:

"I'm starting to get sick of that freak." I raised my voice. "Same. But I have a plan." Javier said. He pulled out his phone and I'm guessing he started texting Marcello and katelyn. After what it seems like five minutes later he said something. "Ok. So remember when he said don't go into the room at the end of the hallway?" "Hmm... Hold up"

(Small Flashback:
"DO NOT do into that room at the end of the hallway" he pointed at the door with scratch marks.

End of flashback.)

"Yea... I remember."
"So I told Marcello and katelyn that if they had a rule about not going into a room and they said yes. So all of us can go into the rooms and sneak out."
"That sounds like a great plan"

We started packing our stuff. We waited for an hour then we heard dark turning off the lights and going to bed. We ate a few snacks then quietly went out of the room. And tiptoed carefully not stepping onto wood that squeaks. I pulled out my flashlight and turned it on. We went to the room that we were going in. We went in the room and it smelled hella bad. Literally.
I shined the flashlight to where it stinks and it was.... A dead body. "Holy shit that smells horrific" javier whispered yelled. "What are you two doing?" I shined the flashlight at dark with... Pure black fucking eyes. Me and javier jumped out the window and landed on our feet "RUN!" I yelled. We started running from dark. And a alarm started to sound. Oh god.

Marcellos pov:
Me and katelyn were in a hallway looking for the door that anti said we were not allowed to go in. Katelyn turned the knob at the door. Locked. Then, katelyn pulled out a paper clip and picked at the lock. "Hurry!" I whispered yelled. "I'm trying!" Katelyn whispered back. The door finally unlocked and we went in. We saw glass containers filled with what it looks like poison. "What the hell?" I said. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN THIS ROOM?!"
"ummm..." Katelyn opened the window and climbed out. I gave anti the middle finger. Hes an idiot. I hopped out of the window too. We started running and heard an alarm go off. We ran to the castle wall and climbed over it. Then we climbed to the too of where darks castle is and saw Ava and Javier.

Ava pov:
"GUYS HELP US!" I yelled. They put their arms out and me and javier grabbed them then they pulled us up.
We all climbed down from the wall and started running. We ran far away from those monsters. As we ran we stopped at a store. "Are we gonna sleep here?"
"I guess. What other place can we sleep?" We saw beds right in front of us. There were four beds that were just enough for all of us. We climbed into the beds and fell deep asleep.
