I saw quite a few stories about spies and super heroes that were also based on Holes. So, I thought I could try to make a supernatural one with all my fave characters from holes. So… here goes nothing.
Disclaimer – I do not own anything about Holes.

'You have to do this for me.' He yelled over the din of the wind.
'I can't do this. You should know I'm still learning. I can't do this on my own.' Aurora cried back, in disbelief that all this was happening.
Aurora Jones was fifteen years old. She was at the top of Mount Vesuvius, the same volcano that wiped out Pompeii. It was the center of paranormal activity. She was there with a professor from the collage where she had gone to for a high school internship. They were researching the recent wave of strange occurrences. While they were there, a black hole opened in the mouth of the ancient volcano. Dr. Hyatt was risking his life for her.
'You have to find my son. His name is Alan. Tell him I'm sorry I left.' Hyatt knew he would die. He was tying the only safety rope, that was attached to a rock, around her waist. She lost air as he tightened the rope.
'Professor, You'll be able to say that to him your self. Just take the rope.' Aurora knew he wouldn't take it. She was trying to deny what was happening.
'You have the your whole life ahead of you. Look at all the mistakes I've made. You deserve to live.' He kissed her on the cheek. 'You were always like a daughter to me.'
She let out a scream as the whirling wind drowned out all sound. A single tear rolled down her cheek.
The black hole was at it's most violent. The wind was lashing about like she was a foot away from a tornado. She turned her head away as her and the professor were picked up off the rocky surface. She could feel Hyatt's grip loosening as he was pulled away. She grabbed his hand, trying to hold on to him, but she just didn't have the strength. His hand slipped from hers.
After what felt like an eternity, she finally fell to the ground. When she got up the courage to turn back, the professor was gone. Her whole body shook as she cried. She had lost the only man who was like a father to her.
He was gone forever.

She could feel all her sense's coming back. When she opened her eyes, she saw a white ceiling and could hear her heartbeat. She looked around. She was in a hospital room. She knew the rescue team must have flew her here while she was passed out.
Aurora pushed herself up. Every muscle in her body ached from being pulled by the black hole's suction. She propped her back against the pillows. She couldn't believe he was gone.
Dr. Hyatt was an amazing man. He had willing brought her on the study to help her gain experience. And because of her, he died. If she hadn't been there, he may have lived.
She fought back the tears, but they came anyway. Hyatt had treated her like a daughter since she meant him. He always looked after her. He even risked his job so he could bring her along. He didn't do that with all his students. Just the ones he knew would become something. He saw something in her. She couldn't find it.
Then she remembered his last words. You have to find my son. His name is Alan. Tell him I'm sorry I left. Alan. He never really talked about his son. All he really said was his worst achievement was abandoning his son.
She knew what she had to do.
She had to find his son. She had to tell him what his father said.
And she would find him. No matter what the cost.
