26 April 2012
The night was dark and stormy, and four high schoolers walked with unease."I-I don't know about this Brian." A small teenager in a small cheerleading uniform whispered to her, big, jock boyfriend.
"Ithaca, I got you." Brian wrapped his arms around her small waist.
"Josh! I told you, I'm not doing this! I swear I'll-I'll-break up with you!" Another small cheerleader slapped Josh, her boyfriends hand that was gripping hers.
"Ellya, as Brian said to Ithaca, I got you." Josh smiled as Ellya gave a slight smile back at him and nestled back into his arms.
"Alright, but if my new stilettos break, your buying me a new pair." He gave a slight chuckles as he saw her frown and nestle deeper into him as they came up to the gates of the feared and 'haunted' cemetery.
"Brian, I'm gone be sick!" Ithaca whispered harshly.
Right when they passed the gates the guys looked at each other,"Bet I could beat you to the other side!" The took off in a dart and were laughing like they were in elementary school again.
Ithaca and Ellya stood with mouths open like suffocating fish."Ugh! What a tool!" Ellya exclaimed as she watched on. Her extremely curly brunette hair was being twisted around her freshly manicured finger as she bit her cheek in anger.
Ithaca's eyes became wide as she watched her boyfriend run off. Her face turned red in anger."That-that... Ass wipe!" Ellya gasped.
"Hun! That was your first cuss word ever! Congrats!" Ellya exclaimed hugging Ithaca.
Ithaca's face turned red from something other than anger."Sorry," She mumbled.
"Naw Hun, do it more often!" Ellya encouraged."Well I'm going to go find our dumb boyfriends. Coming?"
Ithaca's eyes grew wide again and her slightly curly blonde hair shook with her head.
"What evs, Hun. Ttyl!" Ellya walked off with a swing in her step and a glare set on her face in the direction Ithaca and her boyfriends ran off.
Ithaca was left alone, and soon regretted it. She should have ran straight from the cemetery, back home where her mother could wrap her in her grandmothers fluffy throw and bake her toll house cookies, but she didn't, and knew she should of. She went after the other three.
It was a rather large cemetery, and soon, Ithaca got lost."Brian! Josh! Ellya! Anyone?!" She ran her hands up and down her arms. The wind was getting angrier. Soon after, a loud, blood curdling scream pierced it's way into Ithaca's ears, and she locked her hands firmly over her ears that held her new dangly earrings.
It was a manly scream she noticed, and the scream made chills run up and down her spine. She finally released her ears and ran for the way she came. Only, somehow, she ended up in the complete opposite direction. What she saw, made her sick.
Josh's face was contorted in pain and his arm was completely out of socket, just dangling there. His caramel colored eyes opened and staring blankly and the sky.
Josh was throw on a stake the was firmly set into the ground, his body was facing the sky and the stake was piercing through his stomach. Ithaca leaned over and began to release the contents in her stomach. She ran again, only to end up in a different part of the cemetery.
She saw Brian's lower half crushed at his legs, like a boulder was thrown on his lower half. Ithaca felt tears prick at her blue eyes. He was still alive barely. And he was gasping for air before he just collapsed.
Ithaca ran to another part of the cemetery, only to find Ellya with a axe embedded in her skull. It was hanging there carelessly, and Ithaca cried full force. Her sister, best friend, mentor, was dead. Ithaca tried to run clean out of the cemetery, but came face to face with a crazy old man humming the Jack 'N The Box song. She let out a loud scream before the man put a nail and took a hammer and began to pound the nail into her head. She tried to struggle, but she was stuck in place. As it finally broke through her skull and brain, blood pooled out and she collapsed.
The old man walked off whistling the jaunty tune,"I'm back..." He whispered to himself.
Will be a sequel!
