Derek and Anthony's house came into view. Their house was thankfully one of the first ones you see when you entire the neighborhood.

Their house was a normal 2 level house with a large kitchen and dinning room but a small living room. They have about 5 rooms upstairs.

A shared bathroom for their parents and three bedrooms. One for Derek and one for Anthony the other is a guest bed room. And their guest bed room where they guys throw all their trash into.

So it's more of a storage room. They have a small patio with a small swing seat. Wooden stairs that lead up to the front door witch has a dent in it from when the guys played baseball.

By the swing set is a glass window but you cant really see inside. It's one of those one sides windows like the ones you see in cop movies or something like that.

Derek pushed open the front door

"mom dad?" Derek called making sure they weren't home and wouldn't ask us why the hell where here we all stumbling in. I grabbed the stair beam Derek rested his back on the wall.

May and Anthony both crashed down on the steps. We didn't say anything. I don't think we could our lungs were so tight from running for so long.

"Wh-what the f*ck was that?" Anthony painted. I shocked my head and brushed my hair back with my right hand feeling the sweat dripping down my forehead.

"D-don't know" I coughed out trying to get as much air into my lungs as possible.

"Let's just head to my room" Derek said as he gently took my hand. I glanced at my wrist seeing it starting to turn red I guess people grabbing me every ten seconds as tight as possible would hurt a little.

But his hand was unbelievably warm because we were running I keep forgetting I was holding hands with my crush. My checks felt even warmer than before.

We walked up the stairs and Derek's room is the first room you see when you walk up the stairs. The guys are both somewhat childish.

They have name tags on their door. Anthony's is police caution tape with Anthony in graffiti. Derek was just his name with a bunch of small photos of all of us around it. He opened the door and a whiff of his cologne hit you.

His walls are painted light blue. He's had it like that ever scene he was a kid. He just hates saying it. He has a normal bed that's pushed up agents the wall with a few posters of NBL players he really likes.

He has a small window with a desk pushed to the side of it. He has his computer and a few random note books. He also has a built in closet like I do. May is the only one without one.

She has one of those old closest you see in the princess movies or something like that. Me and May sat down on Derek's bed as he stood by the door. Anthony sat at Derek's desk chair.

"What's going on?" May cried as she grabbed Derek's pillow and let her tears run down her face. Looks like everything was starting to get to her she smothered her face in the pillow to try to hide her sobs.

But we could all hear them as clear as day. None of us knew what to say what could we?, none of this was making any scenes. First off a truck was about to hit me.

Then it vanishes then the side walk and the road vanishes. And THEN our teacher and friends faces are GONE. God what is happening?!, after re thinking everything tears started building in my own eyes.

"Derek!" Anthony snapped as he shot out of the chair it slamming into the wall. We all shot our heads over to the computer screen and a video pooped up and you could see a man with the hit play button at the bottom of the screen.

The man looked around 40 or older. His hair looked like a washed out black that was turning gray with a few white strands here and there. His light green eyes had bags under them like this man had never sleep before.

His face was still slightly smooth but you could see where his wrinkles would take place when he got older. He was wearing an old gray sweater that looked hand made and was very well taken care of.

"Do you know him?" Anthony snapped/chuckled. Derek glared at him

"you're kidding right?" Derek snapped at his brother not thinking this brothers jokes were funny. May also glared. I sighed and took this chance to whip my eyes so no one would see me brake down crying.

Derek walked over to the computer and went to hit exit but it hit play anyways. Derek growled and sat down. All our eyes were glued onto the screen. The man sighed and rubbed his eyes

"ok this will all make scenes later on. But I need you to do something. There's an abandon house in the woods, I need you to go there" the man said as he stared right into the camera. I took a quick glance at the room he was in. It looked like a basement made out of cement. The cement looked old and it was braking too. With a few lights that barely worked, it looked like a horror movie scene.

"If you want to figure out what's going on. Go to the abandon house and I'll explain everything there you got all of that?" he asked and we all glanced at each other.

"Good because this video's gonna get deleted in a few seconds after it ends. Now remember, Go to the abandon house in the woods if you wanna know what's going on." The old man finished and then the screen went black. We all blinked trying to understand what the hell just happened and then the video deleted its self.

"W-wait what!?" Me and Anthony yelled. Derek imminently went into the deleted file on his computer and the old man wasn't kidding the video was no where to be found.

"E-eh what the f*ck...." I whispered to my self. May shot her head at me. I almost never cuss unlike Anthony. Derek glanced at us

"well what do we do?" he asked as he sat facing the back of the chair and rested his arms on top of the back. Anthony glanced out the window Derek has a clear view into the woods. The abandon house in the woods in closed off from the public, your not allowed to go unless you want to pay a 150 dollar fine. And we're all poor teens with no jobs.

"Should we go?" I said facing May who looked like she was about to have a panic attack.

"...We have literally nothing else to go off of" Anthony said as he crashed down and pulled his left knee up to his chest and rested his elbow on top of his knee. Derek glanced at me and walked over and sat next to me.

"We should go...there might be something there" I said as I held my knees tighter to my chest. He wrapped an arm around me as to try to calm me down honestly it made me CRAZY happy. But I wished it was under better circumstances. But I'm not complaining Anthony rolled his eyes.

"Stop it love birds" Anthony teased. We both glared my face heated up it felt like someone had a lighter to my checks.
