Aftermath

Old "Friends"

*No pov*

Clay talked to Darryl and said that it was 'just a prank'. Darryl was first angry but then sadness took over again. >Never scare me like this again.< Darryl was still going to competitions and had his stuff always in his car.
Everything was fine until....

*Darryl pov*
>Do you guys know where Zak is?< I said worried. >No. Why?< asked Clay. >He wasn't on for like a week and he doesn't reply.< My voice echoed thru TS and no one answered. >Please tell me that's just another prank.< No one answered again and it choked me. The silence killed me.

I disconnected and called Seth but he didn't answer but his boyfriend Ethan. >Darryl, do you know where Seth is? He sounded panicky and scared. >No. When was the last time you saw him?< I felt myself getting nauseous. >Ab-out a w-eek? I don't k-now when he's not here it feels like de-cades.< he stammered. >I come to your place and then we can think where they are.< I spoke determined. >Th-ey?< He stuttered. >Yes my friend is missing too.<

I drove to thier house and he was waiting outside. He didn't look good, I could tell that he was tired and exhausted. I hugged him and told him my story.

-A little bit later-

[It was Zak. A video call?] I picked up and he was tied up but i saw someone else there too. Seth. >If you want them to be free come to 2049 Wiley Oaks Lane in Jacksonville. We are waiting and if you call the police they boys will die.< The voice laughed hysterical and hung up. We looked at each over and I saw him panicking. I tried to calm him down but it just didn't worked.

I still took him there we arrived 34 minutes later there. I said with a raspy voice >You're going to stay here and i'm going in there if i'm not back when the sun starts to rise call the police, please. < He just nodded. I was going to the back of my car, took the knives out and tried to hide them as best as I could.

I knocked on the door and it just opened. No one was there. No sounds. I was going in, looked around and behind the door. No one there either. I heard muffled sounds. I followed them but still focused on everything that happened around me. At the end of the corridor i saw a light flicker. I didn't know what I should do. So I was going towards it even if I knew that it was the worst thing that I could've probably done.

Before I opened the door I looked around again because I didn't trust anything. [Nothing there] and then i opened it slightly. I saw Zak and Seth tied together. Back to back. I heard them shiver. I saw no one else in this room even if I knew they had to be somewhere i had to go in and i did. I rushed to them and freed them. Zak was about to say something but I hushed him.

Everything was fine but then I heard someone familiar. >You're leaving so soon. That's so sad. I just want you to be with me.< I recognised this voice clearly. Luna the crazy b*tch from High school. >WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT FROM ME I THOUGHT YOU HAD CHILDREN AND A HUSBAND?!< I yelled and hide Zak and Seth behind me. >You know sometimes you need that special person in your life and you thought you found them but they weren't so you had to get rid of them.< She said, laughed and showed her gun. >You killed them? Didn't you?< I said raspy.

She stopped laughing and looked confused at me. >The old you would've stuttered. You're nothing without me! You need me and not them.< She pointed behind me. I whispered to them >We're running at 3.< I whispered >Yeah... sure.< They answered whispering.>1, 2, 3 < I whispered. I made sure that they were out first. They made it but I, I felt nauseous and started to see less and less and fell. She was running to the door and locked it. I was alone with her. My thoughts were heavy and cold. I tried to defend me but i couldn't. I just couldn't, I lost control over my own body and faded away.
