So here's another story. No, I didn't forget about my other fics, but this one poped into my head and I really want to see if you all like it. No OC's in this one. In fact, there won't be too many characters at all... you'll see.
And keep in mind, I'm a "reveal-o-holic" so Shawn being "revealed" might have something to do with this. I'm not entirely positive yet, but if you don't like stories like that I sugest you stop here.
Disclaimer: I do not own Psych, or any of its characters. I do own the plot line, and any characters I make up. Also, I will not be posting this story anywhere but Fanfiction (Dot) Net.
"Shawn, we need to get out of here!" Juliet yelled over a dangerous-sounding rumble.
"Jules, it's just a category three hurricane, there's nothing to be afraid of!" Shawn yelled back. "Besides, we're inside! What could possibly go wrong?"
"Don't say that!" Juliet scolded, yelling across the library at Shawn. "Whenever you say that something bad happens."
"Come on Jules, we're getting close, I can fell it," Shawn protested.
"Shawn, we're leaving!" Juliet commanded her hand on the doorknob.
"Don't yell in the library Jules!" Shawn yelled.
"Uh, Shawn, there's no one here!" Juliet snapped back angrily. "And you want to know why? Because all the smart people went home, and decided not to spend the day we're having a hurricane in an old, abandoned library!"
Shawn rolled his eyes. "Jules, a murder took place in here, and I think there's more we haven't found out yet. We can't just leave! Besides, it's not abandoned, it's a fully functioning library. There's just... no one here right now."
"Well you stay here then, I'm leaving," Juliet announced. Suddenly there was a huge clap of thunder; big enough that Shawn and Juliet could feel the earth shaking. The thunder was followed by another large bang, this one less loud, but loud all the same. But it certainly wasn't lightning.
"What was that?" Shawn asked worriedly, running across the empty library. Juliet didn't answer. Her hand, which she had subconsciously wrapped around the doorknob as tightly as possible, was shaking. She jiggled the knob.
"It won't open," she said quietly.
"What?" asked Shawn, arriving at the door and trying to open it.
"It won't open," Juliet repeated. "We're stuck in here. Alone. It won't open." Shawn looked at Juliet, who was staring blankly into space, and grew concerned.
"Jules?" he said, "Are you okay?"
"We need to get out of here," she said, beginning to look around the library. Shawn silently agreed and looked around with her. They split up and ran around the first floor of the library, looking for any possible ways out
"All the windows are old, stained glass ones," Shawn called. "We'd have to break them." He stopped at a window near the door, looking outside at the storm. Juliet walked over and looked out the same window.
"Then what are we waiting for?" asked Juliet. "Let's break it with a chair or something.
"That wouldn't do us any good. Look," Shawn said as he pointed out the window. Juliet squinted hard, trying to see through the rain.
"I can't see, it's raining too hard," Juliet commented.
"Look," Shawn repeated, "You can just barely see the outline of your car."
"Oh yeah," said Juliet, squinting much harder than Shawn had to. "So?"
"So, you can also see the outline of a tree on top of it," Shawn pointed out. Juliet had to squint even harder to see the tree, but when she did she saw that her car was totally destroyed by a fallen palm tree.
"Great," she muttered. "Now if we break the window it'll just let the storm in. And we're too far from the station to walk in this weather."
"Yeah," Shawn agreed. "But at least you have me!"
Juliet frowned. "That's right… I can't even really see it. Are you sure the tree is on top of the car?"
"Yeah," stated Shawn. "See? Right… there."
"Wow, you're really observant," she commented.
"No I'm not. Hey, look, the reference section!" Shawn exclaimed, eager to change the subject. Juliet just rolled her eyes.
"I guess we'll have to wait until the storm dies down to get out of here," she said bitterly. "Oh well, we might as well investigate the murder while we're here."
"That's the spirit!" said Shawn. "And speaking of spirits, one's telling me to go to the Reference section," he said having seen a clue over there a long time ago.
"This is going to be a long night," Juliet thought with a smile as she watched Shawn run after an imaginary spirit over to the reference section.
So, like it? Hate it?
