Chapter 2: Between the walls

Everyone rises to their feet and bolts towards Monica's horrific shriek. We despised her but not that much to hear her scream and leave her all alone, we weren't monsters. Skylar is also too angry to even look at her so she stayed where she was.

We reach Monica's bedroom and start to pound on it because it was locked. Why would she scream like that? We knew she is a self-centered bitch, but she would never scream like that for no reason.

"Monica what is wrong!?"

"Open up the door!"

"Are you okay! Why did you scream?" There is no answer from her and that's when we knew something is wrong. Being Monica she would always scream at people when she didn't want to be bothered and what happened downstairs with Skylar, she wanted to be alone so why wasn't she screaming at us?

"Give me way guys," Jeff says and we depart from the door as he steps back then runs and bursts the door in. We all run inside and look over at the bed and what we see next stops us in our tracks leaving us astounded.

"Aaaaagh!" Beth starts to scream and I secure my hand over my mouth.

"Holy shit!"

Monica was dead! She is sitting on the bed with her head leaned back on the tin wall and a knife piercing through her head from inside the wall, her mouth is wide open and blood running from her head and open eyes.

"I can't," I walk from the room and out on the corridor. OMG! I start to pace back and forth in shock and didn't know what to do while everyone freaks inside the room. Skylar walks up the stairs looking at me confused then enters the room.

"Aaaaagh, oh my God!"

We weren't here alone!

"We need to call the police!" Jeff shouts walking towards me freaked. Everyone exited the room and starts going on their phones. "No signal!" Jeff exclaims.

"Same!"

"Me neither!"

"What are we going to do! Monica didn't do that to herself so apparently, someone is here with us!" Beth screams.

I gulp knowing that tonight might be my last time alive. "Someone is here with us," I spoke in a suffocated whisper, "Jeff did anyone else know about this house?!"

"No! No, I s-swear we and my parents and g-grandparents are the only ones that know about this," his Jaw trembles in fear, making it hard to speak.

"We have to go! We can't stay here," Jeremy says hastening towards the stairs and that's the best thing anyone could say to me after we saw Monica.

"Yes g-grab your car keys and let's go!" Jeff yells while Blake runs towards his room for his car key.

"I don't think we should split up!" Skylar yells and I agree.

"I'll be fine!" He yells from his room.

"Did anyone g-get a bar?" I ask my breathing growing ragged.

"No, all the signals are out."

"There are no signals up in the woods," Jeff says his hands shaking.

"I am too young to die," Jeremy says sobbing and Skylar hugs him.

"Everything is fine as far as I can see the person who did this must of left-"

"How did they get inside the manor in the first place!" Riley snaps and I nod.

"I-I don't know- why is Blake taking so long?" He begins to look down at the passage where Blake's room is at. I look down there hoping nothing happened to him, my heart hammer out of my chest even faster.

"Blake!" Jeremy yells and we didn't get any answers. I bite my lower lip in anxiety and we start our way towards his bedroom cautiously. "Blake?"

We are nearby to the door when Jeff pauses in his tracks his eyes swelling from their sockets and he froze completely. Skylar and Beth walk towards the door and an outcry of terror escapes their mouths causing me to jump in fright and horror. The guys go to look but cover their mouths in shock and terror.

"Fuck!"

"Mother fucker!"

I step towards the door and I shriek in horror when I see what is inside.
