The trip of death

Chapter 2

 Ellie opened her eyes. She couldn't see anything. She was in the dark. She grabbed Paul's hand and she shook it.

"Paul wake up! There is no light."

She searched for her phone.

"What is it baby?"

"There is no light!!" she replied with panic "and it's just 4 p.m.

"How is that even possible?"

"See for yourself." and she showed him the time.

"Wait baby, I will try to turn on the light... what the heck is wrong? The electricity isn't working."

"Paul I brought some candles with me. Give me just one minute."

She put a candle off her suitcase and she lit it up with a lighter. Then she went close to the window of the room.

"What is going on?" she yelled. "The window is blocked with stone! What game do you play Paul?"

"It wasn't me!! I swear." he answered apologetically.

"What happened while we were asleep? Who did this?" she whispered in fear.

"Give me a candle and come downstairs with me."

She lit up another candle and she gave it to Paul. The couple gone downstairs. There was no light. All the windows were blocked. Ellie's blood pressure risen instantly. She wasn't able to understand.

"We should reach the door and try to open it."

Ellie nodded and followed Paul. But there was no door. Just wall. Nothing.

"Paul I am trembling. Let's try to call someone."

"Yes give me a freaking sec to open my damn phone." he said desperately. "Ellie..."

"What?"

He looked her in the eyes and said "There is no signal."

"What the freaking hell is going on?"

"I.. I don't" he sigh and continued "know."

"We should do something. Do you have a fixed telephone device?"

"Yes we can try it."

They found the phone and called the police.

"Ellie, it's working!!"

Ellie's eyes were lit. She was so desperate.

"Police. How can I help you?"

"We came to a cottage of mine and we are stuck here since our doors and windows are blocked. We don't know what happened. We just need your help."

"Can you tell me your address sir?"

"Of course. It's Poseidon's one which is eight kilometers east of Leas Hotel."

"Ok we will be there in ten, nine, eight..."

"What? Why are you counting down? What is going on?"

"What is wrong Paul?" Ellie ask with fear in her green eyes.

"The Police officer is counting down." he replied confused and scared.

"...five, four, three, two..."

"What's wrong with you?" Paul yelled to the man on the phone.

"ONE..."

All of their cellphones started to ring and the lights to turn on and off. They run upstairs and locked the door. They didn't know what to do. They were breathless.

"Paul I am scared to death. What.." she wasn't able to complete her sentence. She thought that they were doomed.

"I am scared too. But we will figure it out..." he answered but he knew that this wasn't true.

They heard footsteps outside the door. Someone was walking repeatedly. Ellie went close slowly. She was trembling and was ready to pass out. When she reached the door a really awful smell emerged in the air. She looked through the keyhole and she saw a mouth fool of rotten teeth smiling. She got away immediately with a scared facial expression.

"What did you see Ellie?"

"Teeth... rotten teeth... and... and a smile. What the..."

"Please try to stay calm. We will find a way out."

"No we won't!"
