One, Two, Three, Four, Five?

Chapter one: Bad Idea

"So why are we doing this again?" Evelyn asked, looking at the run down wooden house that the four friends had stumbled upon.

"Look it was either this or Ethans Idea,"

"Hey I thought a strip club would be fun!" The three others looked at Ethan who had a smug smile on his face the entire time.

"Yeah no, not in a million years," Kade said, towering over them all.

"Either way, trust me this will be the best Halloween ever!" I was the one who had found the house and convinced the rest of them to tag along,

"Alright first, tiny you got the snacks?" Evelyn held up a convenient store bag full of chips, sodas, monster energy, and candy,

"Check." I looked over to Kade,

"Got the recording equipment?" He then held up a go pro and a tripod,

"Yep." I the nervously looked to Ethan,

"Please tell me you brought self defense items." He smugly pulls out a box of condoms,

"Boom."

We all look at him speechless. I mean he wasn't wrong but really? Kade hit him in the back of the head as we stuffed our supplies into our bags only leaving our phones in our pockets. They would really only be used as flash lights with there being no signal where we were. I looked back at the narrow trail that was barely visible in the faint moon and starlight. I think I could still see it but I wasn't sure,

"Hey, Evie, what are you waiting for? Let's open this bitch up!" Evelyn said with a lot of excitement and enthusiasm.

"That's what she said,"

"ETHAN!" We all shouted at the same time I rolled my eyes and pushed in the heavy doors of the large house.

Inside there was a thick layer of dust over everything, windows were boarded, and the walls had holes. The first room we entered and started looking around in was the living room. It had a couch, arm chair, and a large coffee table in the middle. On that coffee table though was the first scare of the night. Sitting there was a spotless candle holder with a candle inside with a barely noticeable string of smoke flowing from the wick.

"Nope, that's enough for me," Kade turned back to the door and tried to pull the doors back open.

"What's up shitless?"

"The doors won't open." Evelyn pushed Kade out of the way pulling the doors with all of the force she could.

"Well fuck me side ways and call me Jerry," Ethan said looking at the locks and handles.

"Somebody had the time to seal us in here," Evelyn looked at the boy angry and confused,

"The fuck do you mean you man whore?!"

"I mean we're stuck in here till we find another way out." Kade was busy looking around the candle and table as I watched the two argue.

"Listen, if we're really stuck, like Ethan says, you all need to shut your mouths and corporate." Yeah I'm that friend, the therapist and mom friend. Evelyn was the 4'2" sibling that could knock a bitch out. Ethan was.. Ethan. Kade is the baby sitter done with the other two's shit. So if you couldn't tell, hell in four people.

"Stop looking at the door and come on, this place has multiple floors that we need to search."

Kade was walking to what I believed to be the kitchen. Evelyn and Ethan followed behind me, Evelyn glancing at the door. We entered the kitchen and nothing looked out of place, no severed heads or skeletons. I started going through the drawers with Evelyn to find that in each drawer there were only freshly sharpened steak knives.

"Next thing you know a black and white bear will pop out of the ground and say we're in a killing game." The others looked at me confused an I sighed,

"Anime thing," They nodded and continued searching. No food or water was found, only knives and forks, "Did this person only eat steak or some shit?"

I shrugged,

"Don't ask me, either way we should get going." As I turned I looked back to see if the others were following me. They were but I saw something that made my blood run cold. Evelyn slipped a knife into her backpack and looked at me with an emotionless face and fully black eyes. She smiled at me though it was cold and empty,

"Go on Evie, lead the way.."
