Suddenly aware - IN THE SMITH`S MANSION

Our lives changed with just432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqg9vVHZAqG
the sound of a gunshot.

One night, one gunshot, one dead body432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsle20wJj74
discovered the next morning.

That was how my best friends and I got tangled432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpTsnR43CE
up in a murder mystery that changed not just our summer plans, but our entire432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2ZyCbJeBm
lives.

Here I am right now, sitting in my bedroom and432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzmG23th1p
looking impatiently at the time waiting the doorbell to ring. Evelyn and I had432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVCkXcttS5
to search the Smith’s mansion for a clue. This is our third search since the432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl81NzbIvWv
murder. The second search left a sour taste in our mouth. Iris, one of our best432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNyVkKBAh4
friends, was almost killed. She is currently in the hospital in a coma.432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhk9OJozB65
“indefinite” the doctor had said. These words echoed in my head and drove me to432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYqza7mmbm
get to the bottom of this mystery.

7:45am

The doorbell rang.

Finally.

I picked my stuff, ran out of my room, down the432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyo5uK7tsG
stairs and to the door. I flung it open.

“After a million years! We432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJOLylMYka
have no time. Let’s leave now!” I stated as I pulled my tote bag along with me.

I know I was being quite bossy and432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwf68aBIPQ
dramatic but, in my defense, my heart was beating like crazy, and I just wanted432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ErThXKJo9
to get things over with. I was already overthinking things as it was already.432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSK6kvP8BFY
All I could think of was the fact that Iris was almost murdered, and her killer432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQBlF1AvSD
is running free. Probably camping out at the Smith`s mansion… or in my house. I432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVzH9nxMr8
don’t know, and I don’t even want to think about anything else but to find the432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQWUGTJsup
answer. And the answer, is behind those huge thick doors of the smith`s house.432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFScTh5AAV
And today, I hope to uncover it.

Those doors…. quite like that of the432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVKkjOnwZ7
entrance to hell. All these years, I had never seen the house as such a scarred432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuv8DO0xrr
monument. But at the beginning of summer break, things changed. LOADS of432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bDbQPazdo
things. And I must deal with these changes.

Evelyn stepped in front of me and dropped432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQCRHdnBjc
the duffel bag on the dusty porch.

“Ready when you are!” she announced432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDwsNwuuOg
as she dropped to her knees and unzipped the bag.

“Ready!” I replied. For some odd432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEO515RmQL
reasons, that word was so difficult for me to say. It seemed like the weirdest432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8Ch04inD4
thing to admit. Who in their right senses would be born ready to go exploring432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyR58DEGsI
an abandoned house where a murder was committed, where her best friend was432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBHuO3iDlI
almost killed, and most importantly, where a potential killer is hiding.

“Done!’ Evelyn announced as she432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YGc0QGD0N
straightened up and pushed the door opened just a crack.

“Wait!” I demanded, preventing her432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD94eKNg5Q7
from going in. “We should know that as we are walking into this place, we might432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLz6eRSmEcp
be the next target.”

“Yeah, I know. And we should be very432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19FgUnn2D1
careful.”

“Very! You have your backup432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcOADZgadZ
flashlights, right?”

“Never go anywhere without them!”

We laughed nervously. Evelyn then gave me432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQmj9nFhpX
a reassuring nod, then pushed the door open. Taking a huge breath, we walked432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzrYu1xmut
into our very own doom.

The house greeted us with the usual432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9LsE1jh8t
dust. We went around the house. Our circle432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuKkw2zGNU
of white light from our torch, followed us on our journey. I clutched my pepper432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYoumLI9g1
spray tight in my other hand with my heart beating like crazy. Everything seemed432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuLwiRyqIP
to be going well, till we got to the study.

When we approached the study, I already decided not to go in. Because that was where Iris was almost murdered. I432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOgEN8Xmyo
began walking away from the room. Then the strangest thing happened.

I heard a voice.

MY voice, but in my head. The voice willed me to432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0gsLWiLUu
go into the study. I tried shaking of the strange feeling and walking away, but432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEfXhYNMNB
I felt myself being dragged to the door.432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysHiyvWL5A

NO… Not dragged. I was WALKING! Even432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiODRZuWzFD
though I didn’t want to go, I saw myself walking towards the study.

Fear gripped my whole being. I432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfCL4qJlL6
heard Evelyn`s voice ask if I was ok.

“OF COURSE NOT!” I screamed. “I can432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyz1RUVgmyU
hear my own voice in my head telling me to do what I don’t want to.”

Adrenaline flowed through my veins432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVHJUJdivf
as I listened to myself talking. To my horror, that wasn’t what I screamed. I heard432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjcucR0O0b
myself scream: “I AM FINE! LET’S JUST GET THIS OVER WITH!”

WHAT? That so not what I wanted to432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIirufbGLhN
say. I stared at Evelyn as she asked me what was wrong with me. She explained432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagvfNByMEh
that she understands how I feel but I need to be calm.

“Did you sleep at all last night?”

I didn’t even give her a reply. Maybe432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypuyarXeUj
that’s it. Maybe because I didn’t get enough sleep last night, I am hearing432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL66ns3Z97B
things.

“Sorry Eve, I didn’t mean anything I432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQe5wvD1jLZ
said.” I apologized. As we continued our search.

We walked away from the study door432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlayvObBqJU
again. Then I heard it loud and clear this time.

“GET432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRh8WYxvIBC
IN THERE!”.

I was so startled that I sprayed my spray into Evelyn’s eyes out of432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqk2pvjseS
shock. I dropped the pepper spray, quite dazed. I started apologizing but432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36vKqtQkzD
stopped in shock. I stared at Evelyn in surprise.

Something is wrong. Very wrong.

Evelyn wasn’t in pain. In fact, she didn’t432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDPNEMuR97
look as though she was in pain at all. Instead, she smiled at me, walked432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34Aux0mQIM
towards the study door, and opened it.

“Evelyn, are you ok?” I asked as the432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXPy4UNkz0
fear and shock I felt made my leg quiver.

“Yes, I am! Fiona. She wants us to432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbH4iI1yhy
search the study!” she replied in a hypnotic way and with a horrific smile.

“Who?” I stammered as I looked432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwLpAzyHTb
around in fear. Everything about this house is just off.

"The432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfq9XMNVIK
girl." Eve replied impatiently. Still with that weird smile on her face. Then she432Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEg5ESaPIG
added, “The girl that always tells us what to do.”

Then she disappeared into the room.
