Chapter 12: Hell in The Woods

"So...where exactly is this 'facility'?" Christine asked.

"This road will lead to a dead end in 20 miles. We park there and head back. There should be a trail somewhat distinguishable. We follow that until it takes us to the facility." replied Sheila.

"Okay, but if I get mud on my shows I am going to be pissed," Max announced. Everyone laughed at his comment.

Within a half hour, they had reached the end of the road and it was located in not a particularly nice neighborhood. The road was several decades old and got bumpier the closer they got to the end. Once they did, it was a small roundabout that turned you back in the direction you came from.

"Okay...," Sheila said hesitantly. "We are here."

"Uh...do we just park here on the roundabout?" Christine questioned.

"I don't see a place anywhere else." Brody stated, looking out the window.

Once the car is parked, the four of them hop out of the car with there items.

"Wait!" Max exclaims as he heads back to the car and puts a handicap sticker in the window.

"What did you do that for?" Brody asked.

"I don't want to get a ticket for parking illegally," Max responded.

"Did your 'friend' give that to you?" Christine asked.

"Where else would I get it?" Max replied. "Come on! Let's go!" Max concluded as he put the car keys in the backpack. Then the four of them approached the entrance to the woods.

"Okay. Now the question is...which direction do we go in." Sheila stated.

"If this place is a big as he thinks, then we can not miss it. Let's just go straight back for now and hopefully we should be good." Brody stated.

"Sounds like a plan!" Christine responded and with that, the four were off into the woods.

They pushed back dead tree branches and weeds as they made their way through the woods. After about nine miles in, one of them spotted something.

"Guys look!" Max shouted.

"It's nature! We've been through five times already!" Brody stated.

"No! Not nature! Look!" Max shouted and he pointed at something that definitely was not nature. It looked like a barbed wire fence in the distance. They all picked up the pace and ran towards the fence. When they arrived, they all froze. Behind the fence was a massive building that was not tall but long. It stretched for maybe a mile. It was white and unblemished by graffiti or nature. There were no windows in the building except for a small row of them located on the first floor of the building. Then the teens noticed a dirt trail leading to the entrance of the building, two metal doors. They traced the dirt path to one of the fence gates.

"Guys! The entrance is down there. Let's go!" Sheil stated as she pointed to the other end of the fence.

"Sure thing! While we are at it, we might as well scream and shout as we walk in!" Brody exclaimed, "We can't do that! We need to find a backdoor or something."

"Well let's look!" Christine announced as she began to walk along the fence.

"Are you crazy? This building is huge! It will take us forever to find that door!" Max exclaimed. But as he did, Christine spotted a small hole in the fence.

"Someone must have broken in through this hole," Christine stated.

"Yeah, if they were 5! There is no way we'll make it through there." Sheila stated.

"Well, just make it bigger! I think I have something in the bag we can use," Brody stated as he searched through the bag and sure enough, there were wire cutters in the bag. "Do you think these could work?"

"It doesn't hurt to try," Max replied.

Then Brody tested the wire cutter on the fence. They worked but just barely. After a few minutes, they were able to cut off more chunks of the fence and were able to sneak through. They looked to see if there was anyone watching or is there was any camera and surprisingly, there was no person or piece of technology watching them. The four ran to the entrance of the building and stopped to look at the metal doors.

"You guys ready?" Sheila asked as she looked at everyone. Everyone nodded as a reply. Then, Sheila pushed on the metal doors and they open all the way, revealing a dark and ominous hallway. "Okay...let's enter this hell hole."
