The restless place

Chapter 3

Walking into the house was like walking into a cave so dark, but the worse part was it reeked of death and decay. When I walked in I could barely see the really dark wooden floor, and a chair sitting over to the side. (Now I know this next part is going to seem like a cheesy story but really it's creepier in person). When Mathew and I walked in a few steps the door slammed shut behind us, we ran to the door and tried to open it but it wouldn't budge one bit. That's when I realized hope was gone, and we had to escape the hard way. Luckily I brought flashlights with us, I took one out and turned it on. I turned to Mathew and said, "we should look for a way out". Mathew agreed quietly, shaking his head.
We started looking around for something to escape out of here with since the front door was locked. I saw an open window and told Mathew, "get that chair so we can escape". Mathew grabs the chair and brings it over underneath the window. I stand on the chair, I put my hand out the window to make sure it doesn't shut on me randomly, nothing happens so I try to lift my body up to get through the window, suddenly it shuts I fall backward and hear a loud "thump", on the window. I look over at Mathew and he's standing there white as a ghost staring at the window, I don't know what he's thinking but I get up to look at what he's staring at. When I look at the window I see a corpse dangling there with a smile carved into its mouth, then blood trickles the hem of the window and slowly drips down the glass.
                We hear a noise behind us I turn around on my heels, Mathew turns around as if ready to fight someone. But nothing is there, a candle is lit really dim sitting on a piano. I turn around then I hear a note on the piano play, turn around no one is there. I hear a screech from behind and to my surprise these Wierd looking hands with really long fingernails are dragging Mathew while digging into his ankle, I hear Mathew scream, "HELP!JACK HELP ME!!!" I whip out my pocket knife which was actually a hunting knife my dad bought me before he didn't care about me, and we loved to hunt but those days are over.
                   I take the knife and start cutting the arm off and to my surprise the knife cuts right through the wrist and all you hear is "AHHHHHHH!!!" Except in a creepy way.
Mathew looks at me I see the tears swell up in his eyes along with the fear, and I say, "it's alright we'll get out alive". I put my hand up in a fist and say, "together". Mathew puts his arm up and says, "together". I take a look at his leg and it's dripping blood, the blood was coming out as if he'd been shot by a bullet. I take some band aid wrap out of my bag, I wrap it around his leg multiple times. No matter what I did the blood still showed and was soggy too, I mean there was about 5 layers around his leg and it was still soggy. I say, "okay, Mathew come on up". I grab under his arm and help him up. Briefly after he stands he says, "I can walk without help". I reply back, "ok, but if you need anymore help just tell me, cause you don't want to die, remember I said we'd get out together".
I head into the kitchen, there's a bunch of rats and mice there and from the room emanated a terrible smell as if blood was burning. I start searching around the walls rubbing my hand against it hoping to find a light, I found a switch. I turn on the light and I see a cadaver lying on the floor with a bunch of rats eating it and a huge trail of blood flowing to the side forming into a huge puddle. I look at the body and its nose is torn off, its mouth half eaten, chest split open, and a rat's nest inside its intestine area. I see one rat look at me with blood dangling out its mouth and I'm scared half to death, because blood with a piece of flesh is hanging out its mouth. Then I look around and I see the large and small intestine off to the side with the half eaten heart. I try to ignore the sight I was looking at but it was hard when all you smelled was blood, death, and decay. I head to quickly grab two knifes in case one of those rats come near me.
      I was heading toward Mathew again and I put one knife in my pocket which as I put it into my pocket it cut me so I grabbed it out and there was blood over the edge of it. Unfortunately it was enough to attract some of the rats, they came scurrying. I grabbed Mathew as quickly as possible and started running to the stair case to go up luckily though they didn't go past the bottom step. I hear Mathew shriek and look at him he grabs something in his shirt and pulled it out, it was a rat it hopped at me attacking me but I karate chopped it while it was in mid air. It gives a huge shriek then the others go over to it and eat it alive I see them skinning it and biting into its body making it shriek more and more, "EHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, EHHHHHH, EHHHHH ,EHHH". Until suddenly nothing it had died after all that suffering it was finally gone. So many thoughts whirled through my head I wanted to beat the others for what they did, but a part of me knew I had to go up the stairs for Mathews sake and my sake. I redirected my focus to look up at the stair case and all I get is a chill down my spine, as if something was wrong.
