prologue
Emily p.o.v.
I woke up in a room. Cold. that's all I can remember. Cold. "Where am i?" I ask myself. I look around. no windows no walls. just bare. And a door, I see a door. I stand. "Why does it feel like I'm filled with water?" I ask out loud. I slowly walk towards the door and exit. As soon as I do, I smell the worst thing that I could've ever smelled in my life.Like when you smell roadkill that's been sitting there for a week mixed with manure and rotten eggs, yeah that smell. I walk down the hallway and -wait, shouldn't I be breathing heavy? That's when I hear it. Nothing. I can't hear my heart beating in my chest anymore. "Am I dead?" I say to myself. "Yes." is all I hear before I black out.
Chapter one.
Emily p.o.v.
Ow, my head hurts. I rub my head and slowly open my eyes to find small brown eyes staring back at mine. "Are you okay?"she asks. I blink a few times. "Y-yeah, I think so." I reply back. she smiles and I notice she's not my age. "Hey, how old are you?" I ask. "Six." she replies sadly. "what's wrong? wait a minute, what's your name?" I ask her. She smiles again. "Lacey." she replies. "Oh, I'm Emily." I say. "I know." Lacey replies. I stare at her confused. how does she know my name when I just met her? sensing my confusion she laughs. " I saw Madame carry you in." "who's Madame?" I ask her. Lacey suddenly looks around as if she's being followed. "I can't tell you that yet. you don't have time for that silly." she says and walks away.
chapter two
Emily's p.o.v
I stared after her as she disappeared into the wall. "What does that mean?" I ask myself. I turn and walk away towards the room where I came from. as I walk past the door to the right of me everything freezes. I stare at the door that says "Attic: Do not enter". Me being my rebellious self, I reached for the door but as soon as I did, I got a shock. "Ow!" I scream and pull my hand back and caress it. So much for exploring. Now how do I get out of here. I continue walking. ugh these hallways NEVER end.
Josh's P.o.v.
Driving back to Madame's house, thought about the person's life I just ended. I want to get out of here and leave her and her stupid house. I just want to get this debt over with so I can get on with my life. I slowly pull up to the mansion that is her "house of horrors". "Why does she call it that?" I ask to myself. Inside I hear the wild of the ghosts and demons above and below me. Poor unfortunate souls. tricked into being killed by a heartless woman who feels nothing but joy in torturing others. It feels different from the last time I was here. like it feels sweeter than normal and it never feels this way. some innocent person must've died from Madame herself but who?
Emily's P.o.v.
Continuing my endless walk of torture in these never ending halls, the wild and the cries of that thing whatever it was is scarring me for life. That brings another question to mind. How did I even get here? Am I dead? I ask my self. I pause dead in the middle if my tracks "Am I dead?" I ask, this time aloud. The many whispers of the people around me fill me with more confusion than I've ever known.
"Yes..."
"No....."
"Help me..."
Ughhhhhh. this is so confusing.

chapter three
Lacey's P.o.v.
The new girl. she seems nice. I don't want her to end up like me. She's technically not even supposed to be here. Not yet at least. How did she even die? I bet Madame did something to her. Poor girl, she has no idea what's in store for her if she doesn't leave. They say, once you end up here...... there's no going back.
Emily's P.o.v.
Okay I'm sick and tired of walking down these never ending hallways. Jesus what's up with the creepy floors. I wonder where Lacey is. "Lacey??" I call out for her in the hallway. "Lacey where are you?" "I'm in here." she tells from inside the wall. "Wait how'd you get in there. Are you in a room or something??" I whisper yell. "Ssh keep it down just get in here." she tells me. I stare at the wall. How the heck am I supposed to get in there? Lacey sighs and sticks get hand through the wall and grabs my shirt pulling me through. "Woah. How did you--" "Every ghost can do that Emily." Lacey says with a duh tone. "Look, I have to tell you something. And it's REALLY important okay so shut up and listen ok?" she looks at me with a stern look. "Okay okay what is it?" I ask. She opens her mouth but something strange starts to happen. The floor starts shaking. shaking as in earthquake shaking. "W-wwwha---whhat's ggg--gooinng ooonnnn???" My voice is unsteady and I see Lacey slip through the floor and her screams are the last thing I hear.

Chapter four
Emily's p.o.v
It takes me a second to realize what happened. Then I drop to the floor and start banging on it. "Lacey!!! Lacey come back!. Bring her back you stupid earth quake floor." I yell. I sigh and stand up well there goes my only friend my inner me said. "I've got to get out of this room." I mumble to myself. Looking around I see no door. "Great. Just great. " I say and feel around the wall for a way out. After a few minutes I just give up. I slide down the wall and bring my knees to my chest. "I'm stuck in a room with no door or windows. My skin is getting colder by the minute and I have no idea what's happening to me." I say into my knees and start to cry.
Lacey's P.o.v
"I told you not to help her. " Madame says to me. I shiver. "I'm not helping her. " I reply. She stands and moves next to me. "Good" She replies coldly, "I need her to stay here. " I look at her weirdly. "Why? What do you need her for? " I ask her. Madame moves slowly towards me and bends down so she's at my eye level. Her eyes are black soulless things that makes anyone, living or dead, cower away from her. She smiles wickedly and says "You'll see....." She stands back up and moves towards the door. "I never want to see you with her again or else." She says and closes the door. I have to find out what's going on here. Maybe Josh can help. I wait a couple of minutes to really see if she's left and push my head through the door just to make sure that the hallway is clear. Then I step out and start my search for Josh.
Josh's P.o.v
My head is so confused. "There you are"Madame's slimy voice says as she reaches out for me. "Yeah. I'm here. " I say and sit down in a chair. I forgot I was in the living room of the house. The only not dreadful part of the entire building. She looks at me sweetly with those evil eyes of hers. "Did you do what I asked of you? " she asks me. "Yes the body is downstairs in the basement. What do you want me to do now?" I ask waiting for my next assignment. "Good. I want you to keep an eye on Lacey." She says. I look at her funny. "Lacey? Little Lacey, who couldn't hurt a fly Lacey? Why do you want me to keep an eye on her?" "Because. She's getting suspicious of that new girl here. " she replied. It suddenly makes sense. The sweet smell of course there's a new girl here. " Okay. I'll go find her now. " I say and start to head for the hallway.

Chapter 5
Josh's p.o.v
It's weird. Madame normally never lets me in her hallways. I can just feel the souls going in and out of the walls. The cold air creeping up my neck tells me that people are here. Poor unfortunate souls. It creeps me out that I killed some of them. I'm mix right about the first thought about the time I first killed someone working for Madame when I smell something fresh. "Mmm," I say to myself. It reminds me of the summer months, like the strawberries I would pick with my mom out in the girls mixed with a sweet smell of candy. I shake my head and open my eyes to see a girl about 5'3 with long hair and a pink shirt. Her eyes are wide because she knows that I can see her. "W-who are you?" she asks me. "My name is Josh." I reply back. She looks at me for a second and tilts her head in the most adorable-- "Are you alive?" She asks again? "Duh," is my brilliant response. We stand there and stare at each other for a minute. She seems familiar but I don't know. "What's your name kid?" I ask her. The next thing she says brings my whole world to a halt.
"Emily"
