Double Trouble(PREQUEL TO SITUATION!)

Death Sentence

I anxiously sat in the car as Finneas drove me over to the house. It was just us to. He pulled up to the house and let me out.

"You remember what to do, right?"

"Yes."

"Good luck, don't die." He pulled off to the side of the house. I started making my way to the only window that didn't have an alarm, and pryed it open. I slid myself through the opening and shut the window. I wish I had that map. I snuck into the foyer, and looked for the painting of a keypad. I spotted it, but some guy was watching football. It's 3am, go to bed dude. I snuck up behind him and covered his mouth as I dug the knife into his neck. His screams were muffled to almost nothing. He eventually stopped fidgeting and died.

I walked to the keypad painting qnd punched in the code 473521 and a door quietly popped open. I let myself in and shut the door. I flicked on a flashlight and looked around. Nothing but a few papers. I was assuming they were the documents that entitled the person who holds it to the funds. I grabbed all 15 of them, and they were all marked for ten million. I stuffed them in my bag and opened the door. I snuck out before bumping into a maid.

"Oh I'm sor- Who are you?" Without thinking I jabbed my knife into her heart and she died. I quickly got my stuff and ran out the window I had come in. I ran to the van and sat down, catching my breath.

"What's wrong!? Did someone catch you??"

"No."

"Okay then, we can go home." Finneas starts the car and makes our way home.

I sat at the dining room as Finneas and everyone else counted the bank statements. I couldn't get over the fact that I had just killed two innocent people. My pupils shook as I tried to calm down but I couldn't. My heart kept pounding.

"Madison, you did it!" Billie snapped me out of my worried state and I smiled at her.

"I did!" She pulled me in for a hug, and I hugged her back. I could still see the blood on my hands, even though I washed them.

I think I'm hallucinating.

I left after everyone congratulated me to the kitchen, where those two girls sat. Sabrina and Carly or some thing.

"Christie, there she is!" They murmur about me as I walk to the kitchen.

"I can hear you!" I yell at them and they cower. "What do you want?"

"We j-just wanted to-" She couldn't even look me in the eyes. What did they do to her?  Her sister spoke up.

"Cyrus wanted to congratulate you on almost running away. It's something we've both dreamed of doing since we got here."

"How long have you two been here?"

"Two years." I almost choked.

"Wow." Cyrus nodded.

"We both had to kill people." I sighed and shook my head.

"What a shame. It's upsetting that they do this frequently." I left the kitchen, and went upstairs to Billie's room. She was just relaxing on her bed. "Hi."

"Hi." She sat up.

"Whatcha doin'?"

"I'm relaxing. I'm tired."

"Mm." I looked around for something to do, because I was desperately bored. I found a piece of paper and placed it on her desk. I began drawing.

"Whatcha drawing?" Billie walked up behind me.

"Something I saw in a dream." I say quietly.

"That shit must've been scary then."

"Yeah." In reality I was drawing how I saw her.

(Ghoul photo)

"Is that why you were tossing and turning?"

"No, maybe its the fact that I've been taken against my will?" Billie looked a bit guilty after that but hid it.

"Shut your mouth." I rolled my eyes and continued drawing her.

______________

"Dude, turn the fucking light off you've been drawing for hours." Billie groaned for the 5th time.

"Fine, sorry. I'll come to bed." I close my notebook and click off the small desk lamp. I went into the bathroom to wash my face and then came back out, and climbed into bed. I couldn't sleep that well though.

As much as I tried to distract myself, I'd killed two people.
