The wind hit my face and blew my short hair out of my face when my older sister opened her car door. I sighed as my older sister opened the door for me. "Get out lazy bones."
I got out of the car and made my to the trunk. "This house looks like an asylum, but I'm sure It'll look great inside!" I said as I grabbed my suitcases and walked up the cracked and broken wooden steps, that led to our new house.
My older sister, Rachel, grabbed her things and open the door with the key and ruffly pushed it open. My jaw dropped, not only was it big, it was beautiful! There were glass fans spinning on the celing, re-painted white walls, and a tiled counter in the kitchen.
"I thought there were going to be dead bodies in here!" Rachel cried, running to the kitchen and screamed. "RAT! DEAD RAAAAAT!" then she ran upstairs and slammed a random door.
"What a baby," I wispered as I walked into the kitchen and scowled. "OK, Joy, think positive, this is a wonderful house, one dead discusting, cut open, dead rat isn't going to get the best of me, once I take it outside..." I went to reach for the rat's tail, but then I screamed and ran unstairs.
My heart did a front flip, not only was this part beautiful, it was also scary. I slowly walked down the long hallway. The walls were dark purple and the floor was made of old wood. "Be careful Joy, I don't think they did the upstiars so nicely," Rachel made her way over to me.
"I'm going to go pick my room," I said, making my way down the hall.
"Good, I already picked mine!" Rachel said. I stopped in my tracks and spun around on my heels.
"CAN I SEE!" I nearly screamed.
Rachel laughed and opened the door next to her. I walked inside and a wave of cold air hit my face. I gotta get use to that since it's winter. But the room wad nice, it was completly empty, but it was big enough for Rachel. I imagined a desk full of Rachel's jewlery and pages of magazinez hanging on the wall.
"I'm sure when you put your stuff in here it'll look even better! Now if you don't mind I'm going to go pick my room!" I started walking down the hallway, there were several doors, but I wanted a room far from Rachel's, cause she blasts her music really loud. I the froze, I was almost near the end of the hallway (they live in a mansion btw) when I saw one door, it looks just like the others but this one, this one caught my attenchin.
I opened the door and, again, cold aor hit my face, sending chills down my spine. I walked inside. It was completly empty but I started to imagine my dressed right next to the window, and my bed in one corner. Then it suddenly stopped when I heard a strange noise. "H-hello?" I knew I sounded stupid, and that it was just probabley my sister.
I spun around on my heels so I was facing the door, but something pushed me and I fell on my back. "CRAP!" I screamed, a shot of pain ran through my back as I helped myself up. Then I heard Rachel call my namedl, and the bedroom door slammed shut. I pulled myself up off of the ground and ran into the door, knocking it down and landing in front of my sister, who was screaming.
"Joy what the hell happened!" I heard Rachel screamed. "Who said, 'how did you fall?'" Rachel cried, helping me up.
I stared at Rachel like she was crazy. "No one said that."
"No! I heard somone say that!" Rachel snapped.
I balanced myself as Rachel walks me to the bathroom. "No, I know that I heard someone, I'm going to but something over the hole in the wall, so no one can ever walk into thlhat room- ever."
I sighed as Rachel cleaned the cut on my leg. When did I get that?
Rachel helped me downstairs. "Ravhel, I'm fine, you're just freaking out," I sat on the couch, but Rachel wasn't quite convinsed.
"I'm going back to that room, make some sandwhiches for lunch," Rachel ran up the stairs, I sighed as I got up and made my way to the kitchen, kicking the dead rat and it flung across the room. Then I opened the cabint and grabbed bread, in the frigde, balony, and chesse.
"HEY RACHEL WHAT KIND OF SANDWHICH YOU WANT!" I yelled out, no answer.
"How did you die?"
I quickley spung around, nothing. "H-hello? WHO ARE YOU AND WHY ARE YOU HERE!" I grabbed a kitchen knife and pointed it at the air.
"Rachel?" I quietly walked to the stairs.
I saw Rachel's leg, well, part of it. It was cut up and bloody. "Rachel! Answer me!" right before I turned my head so I could see her entire body, she started to lean forward and fell downt he stairs. I screamed and ran backwards, falling onto the couch.
Rachel landed on the ground with a loud, THUMP.
I sat up so I could see Rachel. Blood covered the wooden floor, organs wrapped around her body like a blanket.
"How did you die?"
"ISN'T IT OVIOUS!" I nearly screamed. I got up, and left the house.
