The Tomb Of Dr. Theseus

~1~

Do you go to a school near a cemetery?

We do.

Who's "we?"

Well, I'm Louis Tomlinson, your normal schoolboy. I love having fun, going to movies! Everything normal - no biggie.

Then there's my friend, Harry Styles who goes to school with me on the same bus. He's very tall and slim, and all the girls think he's cute.

And of course, there's Harry's Bradford friend Zayn Malik. He's very daring and afraid of nothing!

But never in a million years did we think of going into the cemetery behind our school. It's not because we're afraid of ghosts, but just out of respect for the people buried in there. I mean, cemeteries are for the dead, and we shouldn't disturb them, right? If you were dead, would you want a lot of strangers running all over your grave?

The cemetery has two sections: the new and the old. The new part is like a huge park with tidy graves and pretty gardens and avenues of trees.

But the old part, on the other side of the road - that's a different story. You wouldn't want to go in there evern if you were dead!

Neglected for years and overgrown with tall grass, it is crammed with the weathered gravestones of long forgotten people. There's a hole in the back fence, and some of out friends from school have crept through and hidden in the trees.

We used to hear all sorts of scary stories.

"Wow!" said Niall. "There's a grave you can see into!"

"You're kidding," scoffed Harry.

"No, it's true," Niall insisted. "The stone slab has lifted up in one corner, and you can see what's underneath."

"What is underneath?" Zayn demanded skeptically.

"Lot's of little bones," Niall replied. "They're too small to be human, so I think it's a dead cat."

"Yuck." Harry screwed up his nose. "Imagine being dead and having a rotting cat for company. It must stink in there."

"Then Liamtold us, "There's a grave with monster rats in it. They come out and look at you. People say the rats are so fat because when they get hungry, they eat some of the dead people."

Yuck! I thought my stomach was going to come sailing out of my mouth!

And then Greg, Niall's twin, swore us to secrecy. "The best part of the cemetery is the tomb," he whispered.

"You mean, like the grave is above the ground?" asked Harry, his eyes widening. "Like the ones you see in movies?"

"Exactly. Some people call them vaults. Ot chambers." Greg's face lit up. "It's seriously awesome!"

"What's so special about it?" I wanted to know.

Greg dropped his voice, "Well, it's made of stone and it's got iron gates at the front. And at night, they say, all the lights come on inside. They say that the dead wake up and have parties inside it."

I almost burst out laughing. I'd never heard anthing so ridiculous. I was about to tell Greg to get real and get a damn life, but Harry spoke first.

"Whose tomb is it?" he asked, curiousity writen all over his face. How could he believe such nonsense? I wondered. I could have kicked his butt.

"Someone called Dr Theseus. He was a famous scientist, that's what they say. I've seen it. It's at the back of the cemetery, where all the trees and long grass are. And every Saturday night, they say that all the lights go on inside and you an hear sounds."

"What sort of sounds?" I demanded.

"Groans, and chains rattling, and voices singing, and music."

Zayn laughed. "I don't believe you."

"I'm only telling you what other people say," Greg argued defensively. "Hey, if you don't believe me, you can always check it out yourself - unless you're a chicken."

"We're not chickens," Zayn growled.

When Greg was gone, Zayn suddenly turned to Harry and me and said, "That's what we should do on Saturday night."

"What?" I asked, dreading his answer.

"Go to the tomb of Dr Theseus," he announced.
