There (Haunted)

Chapter thirty- seven

That night I sat on my bed. Just sat. Staring into space. Thinking about... nothing. William and Theo left around 2 o'clock in the afternoon. They said I didn't really need any help, even though Theo insisted he would help with something but I told him to go, that I could do this on my own. At least William believed in me. But then he's the only one who can help me if I choose for that help. I didn't tell them about my little visit with Abigail, I can't tell them anything till after I found my cousins.

It's now dark outside, it's 10 o'clock to be precise. But all I'm doing is looking around my room. The boxes pulled high in the middle, my bookshelf empty, my TV stand has no TV but only a few books, my desk is out with nothing on it and my seat my the window has no cushions. Everything is in the boxes. Although my curtain are up.

I step off from my bed and go sit down on the seat in the window, looking out into the darkness of the night. I pull the curtains closed, then off from the seat I go. The seat and the curtains are the same style fabric and same pattern, an old vintage style with flowers and fancy writing, violet, my quilt on my bed is the same, like the cushions.

I walk around my room, my bare feet slightly cold on the dark wooden flooring, but I moves two steps onto my warm fluffy white rug, soft on me feet. I close my eyes for two seconds and begin to dream, I may be standing up but I'm still dreaming!

Something pops into my head, a leader, but it's black and white, within 2 seconds that goes, then a door, in the ceiling, still black and white, the loft. The door opens by itself revealing no one, and then a close up of a doll, a china broken smashed up doll and my eye fly open.

I look around the room, my lights begin to flicker and I hear a door open, but it's not in my room, and it's not a big door, it's not my closet door, it's the loft door. The lights turn off, and I'm standing in pitch black.

'it's not a black out.' the voice is back.

Suddenly a door in my room flies open but I can't, a gust of wind appears and nearly blows me back, I turn to face where the wind is coming from.

Then the lights turn on and my balcony door is wide open, I push threw the wind and manage to close it. I slam the door shut and quickly lock it. I throw the key on my desk and jump into my bed, turning off the lights on final time and tuck myself in. I think that is Abigail way of saying she's coming soon.

'go to sleep Rebecca. You mustn't get up its to dangerous.' now the voice sounds concerned.

So I close my eyes, tight and soon enough I fall asleep.

***

A loud bang awakens me from my sleep. I quickly sit up and turn on my beside lamp. I look at my clock, 2:34 in the morning.

Suddenly I hear my door click open. But instead of looking towards the door, my eye lids close and my head falls to my pillow again.

***

My eyes fling open but my head is still on my pillow. Everything is in black and white, like I saw everything in that dream or thought or what ever it was before I went to sleep.

I stare at me ceiling until I get that feeling what I think someone is staring at me. So my body flies upward into siting position.

There I see Abigail. She looks the same. But half of her you can't see, the over half is light, where there is a gap in the curtains and the moonlight is shining through, it looks slightly creepy but I don't think Abigail would want to kill me.

I slide my legs out of my bed but when my feet touch my rug images flick through my mind, the ladder but It does quicker this time, then the loft door opening then the doll. But this time there's more. I see Abigail coming towards me, she stands in front of the spare room door. But only for a second, then she's gone and replacing her I see the long staircase and hallway leading to the door to the basement. I imagine the dark dingy place, everything still in black and white and I see my hand reach for the basement doors handle and I push it open, finally I step into the basement, Harry appears in my mind, he lays there asleep, on the dark skate flooring in the basement, next to him, his sister, Jenna.

They're in the basement.

My eyes re-open and my door clicks shut, I find my self staring at the blank space where Abigail was standing and I go back to my bed.

Now I know where Harry and Jenna are, they're in the basement.
