Bored Alexa and Rebecca stared at the monitor of the laptop. Because of the let-down blinds the room was completely dark, just the corner where the two women sat was brighten up by the synthetic white light.
"Oh man, since we finished Whistleblower we don't have anything to do anymore, hm?" Alexa sighed and stroke a brown strand of hair out of her face.
"Yeah, and killing time just by watching lets plays isn't very useful either" Rebecca muttered.
"Hey…Aren't you supposed to learn for you history exams? You are going to write one soon, aren't you?"
"But I know everything already. Anyway, he will just ask something about a caricature. So you can't even learn something."
"If you say it so…Well I'm happy that I don't study archaeology. I've always hated history."
"But with your art-study, you are also not really safe."
"I know, but what should I do? Art is my only strength." Alexa whined but started in the next moment to giggle.
After a moment of silent Rebecca stood up with a sigh and went to the kitchen.
"I think I make tea for later. Do you want a cup too?"
"Of course! You know me and tea" Alexa laughed and turned her attention again to the laptop. "Apropos later…I wonder what the great news is, what Camie talked about."
"I don't know, but on the mobile she sounded very excited…"
Humming, Rebecca filled the 3 cups with hot water and put in every cup a tea bag. As she looked for a moment out the window, the buzzing sound of the doorbell carried through the apartment.
"I bet this is Camie" Alexa shouted into the kitchen, from where Rebecca jumped out in the next second. She opened the door maybe just 3 or 4 centimetres as a red-haired woman jumped on her.
"Beccy! You won't believe me! I've have such great news!" The woman hugged her until Rebecca couldn't breathe anymore.
"And we won't believe you, if you squeeze me to death Camie", Rebecca muttered. Immediate the pressure disappeared and she could finally exhale.
"I'm sorry…I'm just so exicted", Camie said and bobbed up and down on her tiptoes.
"Then come in. I just made tea."
A few minutes later the 3 friends sat on the sofa, everyone holding a cup of tea in his hands.
"Come on Camie. What is now the big news?" Alexa asked with an expression like a little child, waiting for his Christmas presents.
"Ok, ok… well…you know Mount Massive Ayslum."
Confused Rebecca and Alexa looked mutually.
"You mean that from Outlast? " Rebecca asked.
Camie just nodded.
"Ok yeah we know it. What about it?"
"I found this morning and interesting article, which told something about this asylum. And it was a real article." She emphasized the real so serious the two other women forgot that the asylum was actually just in a game. "There were also photos. And nothing looked faked. It was published in the Denver Post." I believe that it dealt with the asylum from Outlast…"
"Are you really sure" Rebecca asked distrustful.
"Of course. Why would an official newspaper bring out something faked?"
"This sounds so cool!" Alexa's eyes started to sparkle.
"Alex…Do you believe this?"
"Why not? If it's real, then it would be so interesting to visit it, wouldn't it?"
"You don't mean to…"
"Yes. I mean it so."
"The asylum is like the one in the game in the mountains of Colorado, so just 3 hours with the car."
"Camie! Don't encourage her!" Rebecca shouted irritatedly and put her tea cup on the table.
„Girls. I know what we are going to do this weekend" Alexa said with a grin on her face.
