What Happened After Sundown

II

March 17th 2018

Elizabeth slowly opens her eyes to see a completely new environment than she was in before, the buildings replaced with trees and sidewalks replaced with grass and leaves. She sits up and looks around to see herself outside, laying down on a picnic table. "Oh Lizzie, you're up" a girl with short brown hair walks towards Elizabeth with a small smile on her face. "Morgan...are we here?" Elizabeth responds, as her vision trails up the giant wooden cabin. It looks more like a mansion of wood than a cabin though. "No, we took a detour to someone else's huge wood cabin" Morgan sarcastically states, followed by a quiet giggle "come on inside, everyone is in already" she gestures for Elizabeth to come before turning and walking up the wooden stairs, onto the deck and inside through the two grand doors. Elizabeth stands up and follows behind.

Officer Michelle Gorge walks down a long hallway lined with small lockers on both sides. She follows a man dressed in a white coat. "Officer Gorge, so very nice to meet you, you are looking for Iris Lucia correct?" The man says, not bothering to look at the female. "Yes" she responds quickly and sternly.

The man slowly comes to a stop in front of one locker, he uses a key and opens the locker. Officer Gorge waits patiently to see the body of the 16 year old girl, she wants to examine her a bit more, for she really wants to avenge this girl and her loved ones. The male continues staring at the locker for a couple seconds, then looks up at the officer with a confused look "she's not here" he simply states. "What do you mean she's not-..." Michelle cuts off her sentence and looks at the open locker door. There's thin strands of raven black hair caught in the hinges, she then trails down to see wet footprints on the floor that appeared to come from the locker. The footprints weren't of someone who took the body, because they were barefoot. Michelle has tones of things going through her mind, "wait...she died of hypothermia...she she was wet and cold" she mutters to herself as the man looks even more confused than before "the footprints come from the locker...she, wasn't dead?" The females eyes widen.

Elizabeth walks inside to see a giant room with incredibly new looking furniture, even a gigantic flat screen tv hung on the wall above a flaming fireplace. Collie stands up at the sight of Elizabeth "ok, now that everyone is here I can show you your rooms" he says energetically before walking towards the back of the cabin and down a hallway, of course, the rest of the crew follow. Jason and Alianna get rooms beside each other and Morgan gets hers beside Collie's. Leaving Elizabeth's room beside Jason's.

"I wanna watch a movie!" Morgan jumps out of her room and into the hallway. Hearing the yelling Elizabeth walks out of her room to see everyone gathering in the living-room, she walks towards the group with her phone in hand and her headphones around her neck. Everyone sits on the incredibly soft looking couch in front of the tv and the flaming fireplace, the sun has already begun setting, causing a orange-red glow to shine into the room. "Hey Lizz, you're the only one still standing up, can you go make some popcorn and get us some alcohol from the fridge?" Jason shouts out, turning his head to face the blunette who wears a confused look. "We're underage..." Elizabeth simply responds blankly. "We should kick back and have some fun once in a while, it'll get our minds off things" Collie also turns to Elizabeth, a warm smile on his face.

Elizabeth let out a sigh I walked to the kitchen that was a bit down the opposite hallway of their rooms. All the lights in the cabin are off, leaving only the sunset light to light each room through the windows. Some of the floor boards creaked, which startled Elizabeth whenever she stepped on one. When she arrived at the wide, modern kitchen she turned on the light, it was really bright and made her flinch. The island in the middle of the room was a nice marble and fit well with the rest of the theme.
