starkid scare out!!

chapter eight- between heven and HELL!!!

again sorry for the short chapters :(

a shiver was sent down the back of Lauren's spine as she opened her eyes, the floor was damp, wet and cold, she wasn't in the manor anymore.

"what the?" she muttered to herself as she took in her surroundings, suddenly something caught her eye.

"BRIAN?!" She struggled to stand as she ran over to Brolden, he was tied up on a chair by some rope, he was covered in dry blood and was only just alive.

"Brian?! Are you ok?!" Lauren shouted slapping the side of his face hoping it would wake him.

"Lo?"

Lauren nodded with a slight smile

"Lo! You need it get out, it's a trap," he was struggling to breath

"You can't trust him!"

Lauren beaconed closer to Brian

"What? Who? Who can't I trust?!"

"Lauren they are the murderers! You can't trust-"

With that Brian took one more painful scream and blacked out, face pale and a pool of sweat, Brian was now, dead.

Confused Lauren threw a fit of panic she fell to the floor crying, "HELP! Someone?! Joe?" Her voice grew quieter and quieter.

Lauren felt the back of her head, dry blood had stained it and she started to wonder, why didn't Joe help in the first place? He just stood there and watched!

Before Lauren could do anything else a noise full of hatred filled her ears, a laugh, not one she had heard before. It was a dark and sinister laugh suggesting it knew something Lauren didn't.

"What?! W- who are you?!" Lauren screamed at no one in particular, looking up at the cold dark roof.

Suddenly the laugh turned into a muffled voice, one that had been muffled so no one would know who it was. This reminded Lauren of a movie she had watched with the guys ages ago, only this was real....

"Welcome, Lauren" the voice was loud, cold and creepy, it somehow reminded her of the voice of dr space claw from starship.

"As you now probably have guessed, you are just one of the few starkids left! Do you know why that is?!" Lauren shook her head in fright.

"WHO ARE YOU?!" Lauren shouted once more even louder this time. The voice chuckled.

"No, you don't need to know.... For now. All I will say is that you are hopeless now and have no one to help you."

Lauren suddenly remembered she still had Dylan, Joe and Meredith... She hoped.

"Oh yeah?! My friends will be here soon"

"And I'm sure they will, but may I first remind you of the riddle? To catch the rouge you must be sweet, riddle me this at b@mans Blake, find the hey, find the mask, find the candy, piece at last..."

Lauren took time to reflect just as the voice bombed again

"TAKE HER AWAY!"

Before Lauren could do anything she saw before her a large built man, masked and dangerous, she couldn't tell who he was because of a villains mask covering his face.

He said nothing as he pulled Lauren's arms and slowly and painfully dragged her away, she saw one last look at Brian, lying there helpless and dead.

She screamed as her arms stretched and pain flung through her body.

Suddenly the man picked her up and threw her into what was almost like a cage, a prison.

Just as the man turned Lauren ran up and pulled the mask off the mans head cleanly, "damn!" The man looked up furious at Lauren and she knew for a fact who it was.

"DYLAN?!"

"Shhhhh!" Dylan covered Lauren's mouth the best he could as she spoke

"How could you?!"

"Look Lo, things are different than how they were in the old days now.... It's just.....I...."

"Where is Joe?" Lauren demanded and repeated

"Where is he?!"

"Lo, I'm trying to help ya! Learn the riddle, put it together! Then you might be able to get out alive!"

"NO! Dylan" lauren couldn't believe that all of her most trusted friends were dead or well, dangerous.

Lauren started to cry a little before speaking once more,

"Dylan, why are you doing this?"

He sighed as he crouched down almost beside Lauren but on the other side of the cell.

"It was the only option"

Lauren looked up from the ground once again to focus on Dylan.

"What do you mean?"

"What I mean is, well, people, fans, just everyone started calling me dumb, stupid and hopeless, all because of playing the part Tootsie Noodles in starship"

Dylan paused

"Dylan, they were joking" Lauren started.

"That's what people do, they looked you as that person, as Tootsie Noodles but you decided that they were insulting you?!"

Dylan nodded his head a little before standing up and straightening himself.

"Lo, I want you to survive this, but I can't guarantee that you will, all I can say is you NEED to out that riddle together!"

And with that Dylan pulled his mask back on and disappeared into the darkness of the night.

Lauren sat there confused and amazed at what her best friend had just told her, not long after Dylan had left, tiredness fell over Lauren.

Hardly able to keep her eyes open, and stop her mind from spinning with the horrid ness she had witnessed she crawled over to a small, old and mouldy uncomfortable bed.

She curled up in the corner, the blankets barley keeping and heat in, but before she had a chance to even realise that, she fell asleep.

----------------------------------------------------------------

"Yes boss, sorry boss" Joe muttered as his new boss shouted at him.

"SHE WAS RIGHT THERE! YOU. OUKS HAVE FINISHED HER OFF THEN! BUT NO WHAT DO YOU TWO GO AND DO?! THATS RIGHT YOU KISS HER AND START TO TELL HER ITS NOT SAFE!"

"Yeah, I know but-" before Joe could Finnish his sentence Dylan came bursting through the door out of breath and tired.

"It's Meredith!"

What about her?" Joe asked

"She's run away, no one knows where she is or where she has gone!"

The boss, a casual looking man, a best friend In fact, stood up and behind over Dylan, "find her, bring her here.... Now!"

"Yes boss" Dylan nodded and stumbled off towards a door.

Joe swallowed hard, what did he get himself into now?

"And Joe, I want you to go and bring this food down to little Lauren.... Got it?!"

Lost for words Joe nodded his head worryingly, but then something changed it to anger.

"Ha! They were right! You are a softy! God how that production changed you! You can't even manage a murder!"

With an anger twisted face, you snatched the food off of his boss and stomped out of the dark and damp room and towards his best friend, Lauren.
