*COLBY'S POV*

It's now nearly 9:00 and we all decide fuck it let's go to an abandoned asylum and explore it. To be honest, it's without a doubt a completely stupid idea but I'm always down. Exploring's my shit and I have great companions, or explorer buddies, that will do and have done it with me before.

"I fucking hate you guys," Corey says as we all get into Elton's car. It's me, Corey, Elton, Sam and for some reason Amanda. Earlier we forced her to come but we didn't actually think she would yet here she is looking like she's about to shit herself. I don't really know why she's with Elton, every time she comes over she seems to get involved in this shit.

"You gotta trust Uncle Elton, he wouldn't kill you, I think," Elton says and everyone but Corey, who looks as though someone stuck a pipe up his ass, laughs. Elton starts the car and we begin to head towards the asylum.

"Why do I always get dragged along to these things?" Amanda says as she presses her head against the window. We all laugh and Elton shrugs.

Eventually, we reach the abandoned asylum and can I just say how fucking creepy the atmosphere even a 100ft away from it is. It's like someone's watching us from one of the windows, but I know there isn't someone it's just my mind playing tricks on me. Yeah, that's what I'll believe.

"Please fucking tell me the flashlights work," Corey says with that sheepish grin he seems to have plastered on his face every time we go to a place like this. Luckily, as he pulls them out of the trunk and presses the switch, all 5 of them work.

Elton then precedes to heave his camera gear out of the car making about as much noise as humanly possible. A few birds fly out from the trees, making us jump but no sight of an axe murderer fortunately.

"China could probably have just heard you," I laugh, putting my camera right up to Elton's face. He smiles then while he gets the rest of it out makes more noise.

"I'm so freaking spooked. I swear if any of you play a prank on me in there, I will actually not refrain from slitting your throat," Amanda says in a sort of falsely confident voice, everyone laughs and then, after uncle Elton stops making a frick ton of noise, we head towards the asylum.

"How the hell are we supposed to get in? There's a fence the whole way around this thing," Corey says as he looks through the trees to see a giant metal fence towering at at least 10ft tall. "With all that, there's no way we're climbing over."

For a moment we all look, as I gaze around, defeated by this obstacle that is trying to gain entry. We've done this so many times before, what could possibly so hard or go wrong?

"There's gotta be a hole we can get in somewhere," Elton says looking around before the path ends and we have to go into the bushes to keep getting a good sight on the asylum.

"Well you've got Amanda's," I say and Amanda slaps me jokingly and everyone starts laughing incredibly loudly.

"Fuck I think china heard us again," Sam jokes as we see a hole in the fence. It's only just big enough to fit one of us in at a time without carrying anything and even then it's a squeeze around the 200lb Corey, who still hasn't forgiven Elton for the torture that night at the fair.

"Okay, Elton you go first," I say pointing the camera at the gap in the fence then to the giant asylum that's looming in the now slight night fog. It looks like a scene from one of those horror movies, where the protagonists, us in this case, would go in and then await their deaths, murdered by a deranged serial killer. At least it'd make good clickbait.

As Elton climbs through, we all feint retreating with incredibly loud scuttling away. It takes him a few moments for him to be fully through and once he is he looks back.

"Oh come on!" He yells and after a few seconds we come back laughing.

"Frick I'm out of breath," Corey says even though we ran around maybe ten feet at the speed of an Olympic snail.

After around 5 minutes, us and all the camera things were through the gap and we were ready to film the video and be scared shitless like we are accustomed to be when we do stupid shit like this and explore places that could house things we don't ever want to see. Not to mention the fact that they could fall down at almost any moment as we're exploring and crush us.
