This guy sucks.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUm6VS9A0Jj
He’s ashamed of his own dad. And that basement? Yeah, something was definitely fishy about it—and I mean literally. Even from the second floor, where Davis’s room was, I could smell… whatever it was. Something old. Something that wanted to stay hidden.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7l6PTfVbk
For a scientist’s kid, his room was weirdly plain. Walls white enough to blind you. No posters, no LED lights, no trophies, not even a pair of dirty socks. Just drawers, cabinets, a TV, a Switch, and five... yeah, five different backpacks.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfFJ2CJ594
How many schools does this guy go to?354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRYg0SqQEU
Everyone was chattering about nonsense except Cassedy, who had gone into psycho-analysis mode, staring holes into Davis’s head.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7fo4RKJX3
I was just standing there, bored outta my mind.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWGjevfc85
“Hey, Dave. What you got five bags for?” I asked.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0h9TkdhdRm
“Clothes,” he replied, not even looking up.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QpWWnoLuX
I squinted. “How much clothes do you have?”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGIgzBLuVX
“Not much. Just enough to fill the bags.”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQgf8ek5JE
“Then what are the drawers for?”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmc3IhJvUtB
He shrugged, avoiding eye contact. “Just random ‘nerd’ stuff you wouldn’t be interested in.”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdczyYHVoqJ
He finally noticed Cassedy staring. He turned sharply. “Eyeyey! Watch the children, not me!”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuHOA4pknF
Dang, this guy gets uncomfortable fast. I mean, I get it. If someone stared at me like that, I’d probably be in jail for beating the stalker to death. 354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6jnbwVKXd
“Eyo, Cass, what are you? Obsessed with this guy?” I asked, smirking.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1PwJxdlXV
Cassedy turned toward me so fast I thought her neck was gonna snap off.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Zo5UPZn3X
“NO!” she shouted.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMe6Km1LfsK
Davis turned away, muttering something under his breath like he was regretting every life decision he ever made.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7mxF8DNNH
“Hey! Is there gonna be a fight? I bet the money I don’t have that Julian wins!” Adan cheered.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqOCV0FQ5M
Davis stood up slowly. “There’s no fight.” He pointed directly at me. “Don’t be dumb.”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHSgf05r0Y
That annoyed me. “The only dumb one will be you after I bash your brains against the wall, frickin' Dave!”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFwUhlgHvR
He shook his head like I wasn’t even worth the effort, grabbed his Switch, and sat back down.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi53SXlUm3q
“Who wants to play Smash?”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0paQPcVL7
Everyone joined. Even Cassedy.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ck17y1zq8
Me? I flopped on the floor, yanked one of Davis’s bags over, and used it as a pillow. I drifted off to sleep.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZNWmX2UfU
----354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9g4oFFaXXO
I stood in black nothingness.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eJ5u5ripZ
No floor. No ceiling. Just floating.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dQqtPinM2
A square formed ahead of me… then vanished.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8e1Zj7HctQ
In its place: flashes. Images. Hooded people. Blurry. Warped. Like they were being scrambled on purpose.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdnQyCmIQF
One figure stood clearer than the rest—a half-cybernetic guy with a glowing red eye.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSoF6vQKz2y
He turned. Glaring right at me.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6kw2HEmn9
Then a giant, robotic beast stepped out from behind him.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8MjvqJfKm
From the darkness, a voice whispered.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyfYHr5XnD
“Don’t.”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbs13u2UbJ
That was it. Just don’t.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LG6kCkOhT
I wanted to ask “Don’t what?” but my mouth wouldn’t move.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHOit4vKnT
Everything warped again—sucked toward a new image. The basement door.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJ3tl0SXIo
The smell hit me like a train.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZCiBC2j4j
Not fishy anymore. Worse.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZYuD7JiADj
Like some dude who hadn’t bathed in a decade rolled in a dumpster full of rotting sushi. Times ten.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacuO1m2jxw
“Don’t.”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIDAxUzek0
My hand reached for the doorknob. My fingers twisted. The voice begged again.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjj6MaxKieX
“Don’t.”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8VvBAjrQH
I pulled. The door creaked open.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCt9Z0PSVaJ
I wasn’t looking into the basement. I was looking down at the house itself—like the basement floated in the sky. And then everything below…354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKGG51aCuG
…turned black.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrACf426o6
“Don’t.”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnreasBeExC
I fell.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXrJxHcieT
----354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVFQ6GJSSK
“Dang,” I muttered, sitting up groggily. “That was dark.”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT63rSDA11K
Everyone was sitting around, talking about Davis’s dad—except Davis, who was just nodding occasionally and trying to change the subject.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynihEuq8K9
He cleared his throat. “Anyone want lunch?”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCEd9xSjfV
Everyone nodded.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKcl8gNpMp
“Eyeyey! Let’s go in the basement!” I said, stretching.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwT47qPb02
“No,” Davis snapped. “How many times do I have to tell you?”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFq2A9zKiym
“Not enough.”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcStP7TgRVA
“No.”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvezRNxi6Kp
“Why? You got a dead body in there or something?”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUN6q7cQGe
“No!” Davis looked around, visibly confused and tense. “My dad will get mad.”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEKtP3nQ7i
“Where is he?”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItvD69p5dm
“He’s asleep.”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbpML6wybpB
Cassedy stepped in, finally. “Julian, we should respect the rules, okay?”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDIvelJcDd
The twins tugged on her sleeves. “I wanna see what’s inside!”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkwOqYcUCX
Adan shrugged like he wasn’t the reason we were about to get grounded by a rogue scientist. “What if… since the doc’s off duty, we just peek? Look around, don’t touch anything. Then bounce.”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSvWSpJStb
Davis sighed. Big sigh. Like the kind of sigh that carries trauma.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrL9UoIGJ9i
“Fine,” he muttered. “No touching anything.”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TleCupzmE
“Well…” I started, already smiling.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZZiIQbxrE
He looked at me with a stare that could crack glass. His voice was low.354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51e76Or39K
“Don’t.”354Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDgcQ7DvoU8
