I was sleeping soundly untill I heard a loud scream. I jumped up from my bed and covered my ears with my hands. I looked around wondering where it might be coming from, then my gaze landed on the chained and padlocked door. I heard more screaming like someone was being tortured. I slowly approached the door, as I was going I heard speaking.
A female voice was crying out in pain and through sobs was saying "Please, stop!". That only brought on more cries of pain.At this point I was freaking out, then I heard Harlord's voice (I'm sure it was). "Give it to me!" he shouted. "No!" I heard the voice cry out. "Fine then" I heard him say "I will pry it out of you!" I heard something swing in the other room and then a shriek of pain so loud I fell to the floor covering my ears. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Lolita duck under my pillows. The shrieking turned back into screaming and I stared at the padlocked door. Bright blue light was coming out of it blinding me. I covered my eyes with my hands and crawled backwards. I could hear something like a piece of glass fall on the floor and heavy breathing.
"Now, I'll leave you to rot" I heard my uncle say as he left. I could hear my Uncle leave the room and slam the door. "Reckless fool" I heard him say as he walked down the hallway. I ran back to my bed and dove under the sheets trying to calm myself. I was shivering.
I had to find out who was in there and why. My uncle had mentioned wanting, and finally getting something. I didn't know what it was but it must have been powerful. Lolita was shaking and barking at the wall. She sensed something and I knew it wasn't good. Soon we had to bust in there, we just had to figure out how.
