9:45 AM

*SCREECH SCREECH*

I cupped my hands over my ears as a terrible screeching noise came from behind the door.

"Its an alarm! But who it what set it off?" Carrie screamed over the terrible screeching noise.

9:47 AM

"I think it finally stopped." I yelled,

while my ears started ringing.

We trudged on. We walked down a dark hallway, dimly lit with small lights on the ceiling. We came across a dark stairway leading to a damp basement.

"If this is where employees go for coffee breaks, I sure DON'T want to ever work here!" Carrie said jokingly

I followed Carrie as we carefully and quietly made our way down the stairway. I rann into Carrie as she stopped abruptly.

"Carrie! Why did you stop?" I whispered loudly.

Carrie turned around slowly. I could see her face, with the dim light shinning on it. Carrie had seen something. Something that made me regret coming down the staircase.
