Third person's view

MiLoh's palms were sweating. He had somehow lured everyone into going to a haunted house over the weekend to sort of celebrate Halloween,and also to spend some time with everyone. Everyone except Xuan seemed keen to go. Xuan wouldn't stop whining about it for days.

"Noooo let go of me Diyaaa don't be a git,"moaned Xuan as Diya and Yang quite literally dragged her to the place,lagging behind everyone else.
"No you are coming with us!! Imagine making friends with someone and saying 'I've never been to a haunted house'. How uncool is that?"argued Diya,tugging on her arm. Yang nodded,looking extremely bored.
"Yeah man. Anyway you're not doing it alone. The whole point of this is to scream as a group. There's nothing to be scared of."she added. MiLoh couldn't help but snigger at Diya's and Yang's attempts to drag the stubborn girl,who kept screeching and threatening them that "IF YOU DON'T LET GO,IMMA GONNA PEE MAH PANTS RIGH' HERE-DIYA STAAAHHHPPPP". But her cries were all to no avail as they approached the queue that led to the tents in which contained the haunted asylum.

MiLoh gulped.

"I'm actually having second thoughts about this,"he said uneasily. Clarice had some sort of facial appointment,due to which she was allowed to skip the haunted house. Xuan had begged and begged to go with her,but it had obviously failed since she was here. MiLoh felt his heart beating violently in his chest,and his palms start to grow clammy.

"S'alright pops. All part of the fun."said Tetra cheerfully,clapping the man on the shoulders hard. MSB smirked,but MiLoh couldn't help but notice the faint fear in his eyes.

"nOh you guys are NOT bailing on me y'all dragged me here in the first place so y'all gonna go through it wimme!"said Xuan loudly,taking deep breaths.

"Nobody judge me if i start to sing. Like really loudly and out of tune. Also please don't video me."said Jo coolly,where Rocky and Yokie nodded and agreed that they probably would be singing too.

"Alright,you can go in and read the story behind the Haunted Asylum. When you're done,you can proceed!"said the facilitator. Everyone held hands and inched inside. They instantly screamed.

A plastic mannequin of a dead surgeon hung next to a short text which Rocky and Xuan refused to read and squeezed their eyes shut. Everyone was making so much noise,and it didn't help that that small area could hardly fit 10 of them. Then silence.

"Can we go back outside? I don't really feel like doing this anymore."

"Yeah,i lost my appetite already."

"No we can't. We're inside already,there's no way to go but forward."

"...i'm gonna ask the person if we can go back outside."

Unfortunately,when MiLoh did poke his head back out,all the facilitator said was,"....Have fun!!!😅" He poke his head back inside and sighed.
"We really do have nowhere to go but forward."

The moment they went in,all MiLoh saw was a skeleton drop from the sky. Everyone shrieked and MiLoh's eyes instantly shut tightly. He grabbed onto whoever's hand was the nearest and squeezed it really tightly.
"Is that you Uncle MiLoh?! Ouch that hurts!"
"Sorry Rocky!!!"
"Ey-owch! Who stepped on my toe?!"
"Shut up and walk Rathi!!"
"FAAAAARR ACROSS THE DISTAAAAANCE AND SPACEEEESSS BETWEEEEEEN UUUUUSSSS"

The rest of the thing was just darkness for him. It smelt musty and rubbery in there,and there were scary noises that made him start singing too. He squealed and sang louder when he heard a soft,childlike voice whisper by his ear,"Come and play with me...." He then realised that the singing did block out the scary noises and made himself feel a little braver. Some noises,however,were loud and the singing couldn't block it out. MiLoh couldn't help but screech when a raspy,low voice thundered,"I AM GOING TO FILL YOU WITH MASHED PIG INTESTINESSS!!!!!!"

MiLoh felt some cool,rubbery-ish dangling thing brush his face and he shuddered at the thought of what it could have been:dangling human ileums,cow muscles,dead snakes...he could feel Rocky's hand squeezing his as well. Xuan,Jo,and Yokie had been scared by all the ominous noises to the point where their singing had become mere shrieking of the lyrics of "Titanic",and fear had turned the singing extremely off-key.

Even Diya was scared as she screamed shrilly when a patient with partially parted dry hair revealed a blood-stained face. She shone her phone torchlight into random directions as she attempted to blind and ward off ghosts with the bright light. Yang,on the other hand,screeched loudly and cursed at the zombie-like people who gave her jump-scares:"F**** OFF BOIII" or "FIND A TOILET TO HIDE YOUR DAMN FACE IN,SCREW YOU" or even "your maKEUP IS NOT FRICKING SCARY YOU-aaaaAAAAAAAAHHHHH F***** OFF YOU F*******ING $&÷(/€÷£$&×£$*$€×₩%€#*"¥!!!!!!!!!"(a/n:sorry for the foul language:P)

MiLoh felt somewhat relieved hearing an awful mix of swear words,cries of horror and fear,and out-of-tune singing. He even heard MSB's voice yelling out random words he had never heard before. This noise seemed to create a sort of barrier between them and the ghosts:that was what was different between them. Before they had "died" the ghosts had no one and had low self-esteem and possible insecurity issues. But the people surrounding him at the moment didn't care if they were even singing in tune or making the loudest racket anyone could hear. They just wanted to protect themselves,and the people they held hands with,from any imminent danger. And that made these people special.

MiLoh didn't even realise they had exited the tent already. He had his eyes shut and his voice cracking from the volume he was going at.
"NNNEEEEEAAAAARRRRR FFFAAAAAAAARRRRR
wheEEEEEEEEEREEEEEEEVVVVEEERR YOU AAAAARRREEE
I BELIEEEEEEEVVVVVEEE THAT THE-"
"MiLoh! We're out of the tent boy!"
MiLoh's eyes flew open. He was holding hands with Rocky who had clung onto the Band Gang and Tetra,and MSB who was looking at him with an expression of partial worry and partial smugness. Everyone around was staring at them. "That's embarrassing,"muttered Rathi,her face turning a bright shade of red.
"Yeah but who cares!! We're alive guys!!"cheered Tetra,and all of them took a moment to register what she had just said,and ignoring everyone around them,huddled into a giant group hug and going "EEEEEEEYYYYYY!!!!!!"

"So how was your day?"said Clarice as she entered the house to see MiLoh and Tetra watching TV. MiLoh grinned. They had had a sumptuous dinner after that,and had a lot of fun window shopping. Nothing like the perfect weekend to spend with everyone.
"It was great. Wish you could've been there,Mom!"said Tetra before pointing at the TV. "Hey! Is that an ad for the haunted asylum we just went to?!"

MiLoh's face went red as a short video of them was taken when they were walking through the asylum. The very loud,out-of-tune "Titanic" rang through the entire house. Clarice sniggered. "Why'd they have to shoot us like this..."MiLoh grumbled,and his face turned pale when his phone rang. "Who is it?" The caller ID said "Diya Conductor". MiLoh gulped and waited for the-
"MILOH!! WERE WE REALLY SO OFF-KEY!!!! WE GOTTA WRITE TO THE TV COMPANY AND TELL THEM TO FIND OTHER PEOPLE TO SHOOT,IMAGINE IF BAND GIRLS SEE THIS!!! IT RUINS SOLFEGE SINGINGGG!!!!!"
