Suddenly aware - IN THE SMITH`S MANSION

Our lives changed with just434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGxy8xqBZe
the sound of a gunshot.

One night, one gunshot, one dead body434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGeTyej5EUy
discovered the next morning.

That was how my best friends and I got tangled434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynPEo5Silt
up in a murder mystery that changed not just our summer plans, but our entire434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMXT4RP1wSi
lives.

Here I am right now, sitting in my bedroom and434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQ1cT8pevD
looking impatiently at the time waiting the doorbell to ring. Evelyn and I had434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTJcQbcD2h
to search the Smith’s mansion for a clue. This is our third search since the434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxa2wIbANp1
murder. The second search left a sour taste in our mouth. Iris, one of our best434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz5d5twih28
friends, was almost killed. She is currently in the hospital in a coma.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zyj98UZQm
“indefinite” the doctor had said. These words echoed in my head and drove me to434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQxTkWBZqK
get to the bottom of this mystery.

7:45am

The doorbell rang.

Finally.

I picked my stuff, ran out of my room, down the434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhOPs36KkF
stairs and to the door. I flung it open.

“After a million years! We434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbETyizpjb
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 and434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkPYBOu2wt
dramatic but, in my defense, my heart was beating like crazy, and I just wanted434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibjLrRCAjV
to get things over with. I was already overthinking things as it was already.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn94RxyW6vJ
All I could think of was the fact that Iris was almost murdered, and her killer434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtd80yLIMHz
is running free. Probably camping out at the Smith`s mansion… or in my house. I434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3meMBYF1U7
don’t know, and I don’t even want to think about anything else but to find the434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Wnx1MnAAw
answer. And the answer, is behind those huge thick doors of the smith`s house.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxOvcuIu4R
And today, I hope to uncover it.

Those doors…. quite like that of the434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hrnVMKoBw
entrance to hell. All these years, I had never seen the house as such a scarred434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCz9s0lLzL
monument. But at the beginning of summer break, things changed. LOADS of434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSTV1VQ6DG
things. And I must deal with these changes.

Evelyn stepped in front of me and dropped434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSj3M4ahvB
the duffel bag on the dusty porch.

“Ready when you are!” she announced434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0zeJD3iIe
as she dropped to her knees and unzipped the bag.

“Ready!” I replied. For some odd434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxce5DzzEp
reasons, that word was so difficult for me to say. It seemed like the weirdest434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdzO2Jujsyf
thing to admit. Who in their right senses would be born ready to go exploring434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6gp1RZtjw
an abandoned house where a murder was committed, where her best friend was434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJAWydMZ0l
almost killed, and most importantly, where a potential killer is hiding.

“Done!’ Evelyn announced as she434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2anI7C83CT
straightened up and pushed the door opened just a crack.

“Wait!” I demanded, preventing her434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIzdbJvLHU
from going in. “We should know that as we are walking into this place, we might434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZZkFAJIgg
be the next target.”

“Yeah, I know. And we should be very434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOU5dUAAEcK
careful.”

“Very! You have your backup434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDnW18zvrp
flashlights, right?”

“Never go anywhere without them!”

We laughed nervously. Evelyn then gave me434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYD7tc3aEFH
a reassuring nod, then pushed the door open. Taking a huge breath, we walked434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAXqHr2p3X
into our very own doom.

The house greeted us with the usual434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCil3SvOovh
dust. We went around the house. Our circle434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx30YUVI1XY
of white light from our torch, followed us on our journey. I clutched my pepper434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdJe0mcTYy
spray tight in my other hand with my heart beating like crazy. Everything seemed434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAl9J4QIkd
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. I434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqcJMXNlAp
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 to434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktYVALZVjh
go into the study. I tried shaking of the strange feeling and walking away, but434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXYTzkiQwt
I felt myself being dragged to the door.434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHeTqT8EwH

NO… Not dragged. I was WALKING! Even434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPKyWCCV07
though I didn’t want to go, I saw myself walking towards the study.

Fear gripped my whole being. I434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2tYv0VGkw1
heard Evelyn`s voice ask if I was ok.

“OF COURSE NOT!” I screamed. “I can434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8uJaP9pmh
hear my own voice in my head telling me to do what I don’t want to.”

Adrenaline flowed through my veins434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHylkekwsc
as I listened to myself talking. To my horror, that wasn’t what I screamed. I heard434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6q3cOOlFDF
myself scream: “I AM FINE! LET’S JUST GET THIS OVER WITH!”

WHAT? That so not what I wanted to434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfM8GxQraCL
say. I stared at Evelyn as she asked me what was wrong with me. She explained434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Sm6KHTHFG
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. Maybe434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDPKXYMs4d
that’s it. Maybe because I didn’t get enough sleep last night, I am hearing434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCB0ao52gZV
things.

“Sorry Eve, I didn’t mean anything I434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5eNl7fgLsx
said.” I apologized. As we continued our search.

We walked away from the study door434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreOMgs5oEz
again. Then I heard it loud and clear this time.

“GET434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrZ2KBgqhq
IN THERE!”.

I was so startled that I sprayed my spray into Evelyn’s eyes out of434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkRqLI7Ugb
shock. I dropped the pepper spray, quite dazed. I started apologizing but434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZ5RGn3doK
stopped in shock. I stared at Evelyn in surprise.

Something is wrong. Very wrong.

Evelyn wasn’t in pain. In fact, she didn’t434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqVLMlNtvf
look as though she was in pain at all. Instead, she smiled at me, walked434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyCiK4XAqv
towards the study door, and opened it.

“Evelyn, are you ok?” I asked as the434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxiw3ZBEbR
fear and shock I felt made my leg quiver.

“Yes, I am! Fiona. She wants us to434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZauZnrYpb
search the study!” she replied in a hypnotic way and with a horrific smile.

“Who?” I stammered as I looked434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4GW8wzgen
around in fear. Everything about this house is just off.

"The434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLKiOOTkj7
girl." Eve replied impatiently. Still with that weird smile on her face. Then she434Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzibSx2sZ3
added, “The girl that always tells us what to do.”

Then she disappeared into the room.
