Suddenly aware - IN THE SMITH`S MANSION

Our lives changed with just372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLOtR3DuuF
the sound of a gunshot.

One night, one gunshot, one dead body372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZniKdr3WAU
discovered the next morning.

That was how my best friends and I got tangled372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83W1a8GlmA
up in a murder mystery that changed not just our summer plans, but our entire372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHhLaEu35i
lives.

Here I am right now, sitting in my bedroom and372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk7cqzezYiZ
looking impatiently at the time waiting the doorbell to ring. Evelyn and I had372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyO2BNyEIAx
to search the Smith’s mansion for a clue. This is our third search since the372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbGaSG43GL
murder. The second search left a sour taste in our mouth. Iris, one of our best372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFVleQGQ3K
friends, was almost killed. She is currently in the hospital in a coma.372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPXZxnAtim
“indefinite” the doctor had said. These words echoed in my head and drove me to372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldvAILcXK3
get to the bottom of this mystery.

7:45am

The doorbell rang.

Finally.

I picked my stuff, ran out of my room, down the372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0c0uhE24mF
stairs and to the door. I flung it open.

“After a million years! We372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhLFgRfSvp
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 and372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVSdXHfbPd
dramatic but, in my defense, my heart was beating like crazy, and I just wanted372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm18mI2UERj
to get things over with. I was already overthinking things as it was already.372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8TV5S4dNo
All I could think of was the fact that Iris was almost murdered, and her killer372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hiv8YvMq9
is running free. Probably camping out at the Smith`s mansion… or in my house. I372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQvOujlNs9
don’t know, and I don’t even want to think about anything else but to find the372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbjiPtYKx6
answer. And the answer, is behind those huge thick doors of the smith`s house.372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5o5NbY4ejY
And today, I hope to uncover it.

Those doors…. quite like that of the372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNckMqJ3yK
entrance to hell. All these years, I had never seen the house as such a scarred372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbU58HfthM
monument. But at the beginning of summer break, things changed. LOADS of372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrIZBDWiEd
things. And I must deal with these changes.

Evelyn stepped in front of me and dropped372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3szLb5mk1s
the duffel bag on the dusty porch.

“Ready when you are!” she announced372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknWjlUx9Et
as she dropped to her knees and unzipped the bag.

“Ready!” I replied. For some odd372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9RttPxHKk
reasons, that word was so difficult for me to say. It seemed like the weirdest372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx672fORZcf
thing to admit. Who in their right senses would be born ready to go exploring372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpErILMVsLO
an abandoned house where a murder was committed, where her best friend was372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9e6DMqrBhU
almost killed, and most importantly, where a potential killer is hiding.

“Done!’ Evelyn announced as she372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ly6vTJzKZ
straightened up and pushed the door opened just a crack.

“Wait!” I demanded, preventing her372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvK9I048ab
from going in. “We should know that as we are walking into this place, we might372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjDKCOVqlO
be the next target.”

“Yeah, I know. And we should be very372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5aeWy9PkVC
careful.”

“Very! You have your backup372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9IaosJsyw
flashlights, right?”

“Never go anywhere without them!”

We laughed nervously. Evelyn then gave me372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIFhT509SR
a reassuring nod, then pushed the door open. Taking a huge breath, we walked372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLEWyXbfBE
into our very own doom.

The house greeted us with the usual372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQZ44jtLgN
dust. We went around the house. Our circle372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOpmxktYSV
of white light from our torch, followed us on our journey. I clutched my pepper372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCohnjFtlkX
spray tight in my other hand with my heart beating like crazy. Everything seemed372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWRJcE7K0x
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. I372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvrStMTnbOz
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 to372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcekAW3aNb
go into the study. I tried shaking of the strange feeling and walking away, but372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNbga88NbqQ
I felt myself being dragged to the door.372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPvvfmuL4p

NO… Not dragged. I was WALKING! Even372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWn4vTMPWHc
though I didn’t want to go, I saw myself walking towards the study.

Fear gripped my whole being. I372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDl9cDpWnaS
heard Evelyn`s voice ask if I was ok.

“OF COURSE NOT!” I screamed. “I can372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlX5Z6QgPl
hear my own voice in my head telling me to do what I don’t want to.”

Adrenaline flowed through my veins372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqaSprExOVP
as I listened to myself talking. To my horror, that wasn’t what I screamed. I heard372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeO61CNFUZC
myself scream: “I AM FINE! LET’S JUST GET THIS OVER WITH!”

WHAT? That so not what I wanted to372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9B0lvPFPYu
say. I stared at Evelyn as she asked me what was wrong with me. She explained372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡye1YonnXNX
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. Maybe372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5InOPbFAYI
that’s it. Maybe because I didn’t get enough sleep last night, I am hearing372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqPeLPAhk4
things.

“Sorry Eve, I didn’t mean anything I372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLrh8ks9Ny
said.” I apologized. As we continued our search.

We walked away from the study door372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXw4QkrAnYN
again. Then I heard it loud and clear this time.

“GET372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCpgB8RYbj0
IN THERE!”.

I was so startled that I sprayed my spray into Evelyn’s eyes out of372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAq37o6eSsg
shock. I dropped the pepper spray, quite dazed. I started apologizing but372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwkEco0yHL
stopped in shock. I stared at Evelyn in surprise.

Something is wrong. Very wrong.

Evelyn wasn’t in pain. In fact, she didn’t372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWG6FH6M5oG
look as though she was in pain at all. Instead, she smiled at me, walked372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgAfXLZ6Ps
towards the study door, and opened it.

“Evelyn, are you ok?” I asked as the372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnt7F6u2vF
fear and shock I felt made my leg quiver.

“Yes, I am! Fiona. She wants us to372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6ejaBdPep
search the study!” she replied in a hypnotic way and with a horrific smile.

“Who?” I stammered as I looked372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHPM2SWPZ4
around in fear. Everything about this house is just off.

"The372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ077iqiJrtF
girl." Eve replied impatiently. Still with that weird smile on her face. Then she372Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNh8pEmMfh
added, “The girl that always tells us what to do.”

Then she disappeared into the room.
