solitaire: The Living Dummy

Ch.8

"Whata!?", I said observing the wall.

"Dude? You're still there?", Juan asked.

"Yes, yes I'm here!"

"Did you find anything?"

"Ho ho, I found more than anything!"

Juan came in the room and saw me standing in front of the wall.

Juan's P. O. V.

When Antonio said 'more than anything' I thought it was intersting so I went to see what it was. But it was weird because Tony was checking out the wall like DAMN!

"Yo, what's so sexy 'bout that wall?", I said between laughs.

"Oh shut up! Is cuz look, footprints!"

"Sooo!"

"Ugh! They finish in the wall! Cough secret passege cough!"

"Nooo! Oh-oh- oh my god! That's so cool, let's try to open it!", I exclaimed excitedly reaching to touch the wall.

"No dude I don't know how to open it. You know like in the movies its usually a book that opens the secret door.", Tony explained.

"Ohh yeah! But there's no books!"

I could see Tony getting frustrated.

"Juan, we are not using a book in this situation! It must be somewhere around.... look, that little table!", Tony exclaimed pointing at the little night table in the other wall.

"Oh yeah lets- wait dude do you hear that?", I asked Antonio.

"Hear what?", he asked confused.

"Shhhh shhh! Listen carefully."

Tony's P. O. V.

Juan was right, we could hear a little sound.

"It may be just music.", I suggested.

"No, it must be like an alarm.", Juan said.

"No no no it sounds more like... A RINGTONE!!", we both shouted at the same time.

The ringtone was coming from the wall,  from inside the wall.

"Dude, what if your phone is in there?", Juan suggested pointing at the wall.

"Yes yes I know but how are we gonna open it?", I asked searching around looking for a clue.

"There look!", Juan shouted as he pointed at the bed.

Guess what, more footprints.

"Oh yes!", I exclaimed happily.

I speed walked to the bed to check out the footprints. The were from the bed all the way to the closet.

I stopped when I got to the closet. I opened the door and a pile of torn  clothes but  a blue button was in the wall.

I suspected it was going to open the wall so I pressed it.

"OH MY GOD! Awesome!", I heard Juan say in the background.

I went outside the closet and surely enough it was a secret passege.

Entering the passege I saw my phone.

Missed call from Nick

"Danget that was Nick!", I shouted angrily. "Lemme call back."

*dials phone number*

Yes? Oh whats up, again. Hey I got a missed call, what did you want? Oh nothing I was going to tell you I was going to be five minutes late. Oh ok. Don't worry anymore I'm already on my way. Cool! Hey but when you get here jump my fence but don't let my mom see you! Why? Just listen, and then go to the back door and call me when you're there ok? Sounds cool to me! Ok, well see ya! Yeah!

"What did he need?", Juan asked.

"Oh nothing, he was just going to let me know he was going to be late but now he's on his way.", I replied.

"Hey, Antonio!", I heard my mom calling me.

"Yes mom?"

"Did Juan call his mom already?"

"Um... yes but she said if he could stay with us cuz she was going to be out of town!", I lied.

"Oh ok, but once Juan goes home you're grounded!", Mom warned.

"Ok, ok let's go back to our 'game'.", Juan said.

We were going to start our little 'tour' of the secret passage to see were we could get when we heard someone knock.

"Antonio, can you get it please?!", Mom asked shouting from the downstairs restroom.

How gross!

I looked through the window and saw Pedro S. He's a classmate but we really don't hang out with him because Juan and Pedro don't get along. Sometimes Pedro comes to leave the newspaper or to bring something Mom orders from his mom.

I opened the door.

"Sup Pedro!", I greeted him.

"Yeah what's up!", he greeted back "Tell your mom her perfumes aren't coming till Tuesday ok?"

"Alright I'll make sure she knows, I guess."

"Yeah well bye!", he said getting into his skateboard.

"Hey dude, do you know anything about diabolical dolls?", Juan asked. No one supposed to know but Mr.Dumbass needed to open his mouth.

"No, why you have a posessed doll?!", he asked smiling.

"Well, Tony you explain it to him!", Juan said already grabbing my arm and pulling me forward.

"Ok, but we're gon' have to go inside cuz its 'classified' ok. Well dale, come inside but don't make noise.", I said asking him in.

"Ok?", Pedro said confused as he walked in.

We went up stairs and as we opened my bedroom's door, Emi was there sitting straight in my bed with his hands in his lap and a horrifying imma-rape-you smile.
